Chapter 128 The Nutrients of the Real World

"Okay, we'll go there after lunch." Xia Tuo took the initiative to make an appointment.

"Slightly later, around three o'clock." Xia Liangmeng changed the agreed time, "I made an appointment for lunch, so I won't be home too early."

Although Xiao Yan'er also has the key to her house, it is no problem to open the door and go in and out by herself, but if Xiao Yan'er is moving, she must be there, and she wants to have dinner with Xiao Yan'er.

"With Lin Yefei?" Xia Tuo grasped the point keenly.

"Yes." Xia Liangmeng admitted very frankly, "I made an appointment last night, and I don't want to miss it."

This was her first official date with Lin Yefei, and she didn't want to get dirty so soon.

"Are you sure about the relationship?" Xia Tuo's tone was flat, but there was no surprise.

"How could it be so fast," Xia Liangmeng blamed, "Now it's just a date with ordinary friends."

Although she and Lin Yefei can be regarded as a friend in adversity, they have almost no contact outside of the game, and they don't know much about each other.

Even if she likes Lin Yefei, it's impossible for her to confess so hastily.

It takes a while to get to know each other better before we can consider the next step.

"Well, then at three o'clock in the afternoon." Xia Tuo didn't ask how far Xia Liangmeng and Lin Yefei's progress was. He returned to the previous topic, "If you haven't arrived home by then, I'll let Huanyan clean up first. Things, wait for you to come back before leaving."

"Okay." Xia Liangmeng readily agreed.

After hanging up the phone, Xia Tuo came out of the study.

Huanyan was sitting on the sofa watching TV, when she saw Xia Tuo coming out, she stretched out her hand: "Give me back the phone."

Other than that, she didn't ask anything.

Even the eyes did not show any curiosity and exploration.

Xia Tuo returned the phone to Huanyan, and sat beside Huanyan: "My sister asked us to pack our luggage around three o'clock in the afternoon."

"Oh, good." Huanyan obediently agreed without asking anything.

Xia Tuo glanced at the happy face.

He knew that Huanyan was a curious person, and it was impossible for him to be completely uninterested in what he had just talked with his sister, but now she didn't ask anything.

If Huanyan asked, he couldn't tell her the conversation just now, so if Huanyan didn't ask, he would feel a lot easier.

It was rare to see Huanyan being so considerate, which also softened his heart a little.

Xia Tuo said naturally: "My sister and Lin Yefei have an appointment for lunch, so if we go there too early, we won't see anyone."

Although he couldn't tell her the important part of the chat, he could say some unimportant things.

It can also satisfy her curiosity.

"Huh?" Huanyan blinked her eyes, and then showed a gossip look, "Are they together?"

"From what my sister said, they are still ordinary friends." Xia Tuo replied.

"The progress is quite fast now." He said with a smile on his face, "As expected of Sister Meng, the action is really fast!"

"It's fine if I live with you." She nodded solemnly as if she suddenly thought of something, "This way it won't affect Sister Meng's pursuit of Lin Yefei."

If she continues to live with Sister Meng, it is inevitable that she will be a light bulb.

Now is the best time to move out.

"Yeah." Xia Tuo agreed, and said, "But we won't live here in the future. There is only one bedroom here, so it's not very convenient."

He brought Huanyan here last night because Huanyan suddenly fainted, and this house is the closest.

If two people live for a long time, it must be at least a three-bedroom room, two bedrooms, and a study room, which is more convenient.

"Yeah, it's all up to your arrangement." Huanyan didn't have any opinion on this.

For her, a place to sleep is enough, she doesn't pick anything else.

Xia Tuo picked up his mobile phone, sent a few messages, and said to Huanyan: "I have asked the legal department to draw up the contract, and it will be delivered in the evening."

The process that should be followed still needs to be followed, which is also to protect the rights of Huanyan.

"Okay." Huanyan nodded casually, expressing that she was very relieved.

In this regard, she still trusted Xia Tuo.

Xia Tuo will not cheat her.

*
When Xu Ye came over with his lunch, he received a notice that he was about to have another colleague.

Although he and Huanyan were already teammates who participated in the evil game together before, as fellow bodyguards, this feeling is still a bit subtle.

But he didn't ask anything, just nodded politely to Huanyan to express his welcome.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, Xu Ye also went to Xia Liangmeng's residence with Xia Tuo and Huanyan, and packed away all Huanyan's things.

Xia Tuo moved to a large flat in a prosperous area with Huanyan, which is very close to his company and it is very convenient to go back and forth.

There are three bedrooms and one living room. The size of each room is not small, and both bedrooms have their own bathrooms, so the privacy is very good.

Huan Yan only took one look and was very satisfied with her new residence.

Then, Xia Tuo had another dinner with Xia Liangmeng with a happy face.

After the meal, Xia Liangmeng went to the training base for training, while Huanyan and Xia Tuo went back to the residence to sign the contract.

Now that Huan Yan has a job, she has to follow her "employer" all the time.

In addition, the two fighting coaches in the training base were tortured enough by her before, and they just wanted to hide when they saw her.

There is nothing left for her to learn in the base, and she has no abilities to practice.

So she didn't need to go to the training base anymore, she could concentrate on following Xia Tuo.

*
The next period of time passed very smoothly, just in time for the Chinese New Year, and the company had annual holidays.

Xia Tuo didn't go out to discuss business either, and had been resting at home, with Huanyan always by his side.

Those seven days of annual leave can almost be described as doing nothing.

Of course, watching TV is also a good way to pass the time, not to mention that with Xia Tuo talking with him, Huanyan didn't feel bored.

Only on the New Year's day, Xia Liangmeng came over to celebrate the New Year with Xia Tuo and Huanyan.

None of the other Xia family members showed up.

Huanyan didn't have much idea about Chinese New Year, so she didn't realize that it was strange that Xia Tuo and Xia Liangmeng didn't go back to the old house to celebrate Chinese New Year with their families.

Until the end of the new year, Huanyan, Xia Tuo, and Xia Liangmeng never entered the game of evil thoughts again.

Counting, a total of fifteen safe days have passed.

However, not everyone is so safe. During this period, Bai Zhu and Lin Yefei respectively experienced a game of evil thoughts and successfully passed the level.

On the way home from the holiday, Bai Zhu suddenly entered the game of evil thoughts, but luckily the game was only for two days, so it didn't delay her going home.

She lied and said that she bought the ticket two days late, so she fooled her parents.

Lin Yefei entered the evil thought game when he was filming in other places, and he played the game for five days. The person who was filming suddenly disappeared, and everyone was in a hurry.

Although the manager didn't know where Lin Yefei had gone, he could only find a reason to prevaricate and stabilize everyone first, so as not to make a big fuss.

However, at that time there were still gossip about Lin Yefei's disappearance, and some even said that Lin Yefei didn't want to film and eloped with his true love. None of the rumors that spread more and more outrageous had anything to do with the real situation.

After Lin Yefei came back, he was scolded by his manager.

This can't be blamed on the agent, Lin Yefei has been missing too frequently during this period, although the time is not very long, but for people like them who often need to appear on camera to participate in activities, disappearing is not a good thing, it is easy It was interpreted as playing big cards.

But fortunately, Lin Yefei's word of mouth has been good for so many years, and his popularity is also very good, so there have been no irreconcilable conflicts for the time being.

The only good news this time is that Lin Yefei just passed four rounds of the game, and his ability was upgraded.

This also further proves the law of ability upgrades.

When Huanyan saw these messages from Lin Yefei in the group, she was lying on the sofa in the living room watching TV.

After reading the content, she turned to look at Xia Tuo who was standing aside: "Xia Tuo, have you seen the news in the group?"

Xia Tuo looked away from the laptop, picked up the phone beside him and looked at it.

After a while, he nodded: "It's over."

"Although the frequency of each player entering the game is irregular, in the eyes of those who have never entered the game, players do disappear too often." Huan Yan said, "It may only make people feel strange in a short period of time. , but it will definitely cause a lot of dissatisfaction over time.”

During this period of time, she followed Xia Tuo in and out of the company and had meetings everywhere, and she already had a deep understanding of "going to work".

It is normal for an ordinary person to take a leave of absence once in a while, but it is impossible to disappear for no reason many times in a year, and it does not disappear for a day and a half, most of the time it is three to seven days.

Bosses in most industries are unwilling to see their employees absent without reason, especially if the total number of absent days in a year may exceed one month.

A job like Lin Yefei's, whose time and place are not fixed, will be scolded by his manager for missing many times, not to mention ordinary office workers who have to go in and out of the company every day.

Unless you are very capable, are relied on by your boss, or the nature of your job does not require you to clock in every day, or the player is the boss, otherwise, for most people, they will always disappear like this without saying hello, and sooner or later they will be defeated by the boss. dismissed.

This in turn leads to a variety of follow-up questions.

"You're right," Xia Tuo nodded. "Players cannot express their experiences to non-players in any form. It is difficult to have a reasonable explanation for the disappearance. The more frequent the disappearance, the more likely it will cause conflicts." The higher the sex."

After a pause, he continued: "Unless the number of players participating in the evil game increases to a certain level, and most people in this world know the existence of the evil game, then this contradiction can be alleviated to a certain extent."

Those who don't know the evil game become a minority, which means that most people can communicate with each other, so the disappearance can be reasonably explained, and many conflicts can be avoided.

"Maybe it will really turn out like this later." Huanyan shrugged, not surprised that the situation would become serious, "but that's not what I want to say. I'm thinking, all these contradictions and problems, It will breed negative emotions in human beings. Then, will the negative emotions generated in the real world also become the nourishment for those game controllers?"

Xia Tuo froze for a moment, apparently not considering this.

He put down the laptop in his hand, and his expression became a little solemn: "You mean, you think everything that happened in the real world was caused by them on purpose?"

Holding her chin in one hand, Huanyan said to Xia Tuo while recalling the previous details: "It just occurred to me that these game controllers should have existed before the emergence of evil games. They need to rely on negative emotional energy to grow, and they also It is necessary to rely on negative emotional energy to create evil games. So before the emergence of evil games, where did their energy source come from?"

Xia Tuo understood the meaning of Huanyan, and his brows were slightly frowned: "You are right, the game of evil thoughts was created by the game controller, and it was created using negative emotional energy. That means, before the appearance of the game of evil thoughts, , the game controller has a source of negative emotional energy. So, it is likely that this source is the real world."

Seeing that Xia Tuo agreed with her guess, Huanyan continued: "There may be some reason we don't know, which causes them to absorb negative emotional energy from the real world very slowly, or is hindered, so they create evil thoughts through games. , to achieve the purpose of absorbing negative emotional energy faster and better.”

"At the same time, the negative emotional energy in the real world can still be slowly supplied to them." Huanyan thought for a while, and then said, "If my deduction is correct, then they may not have deliberately caused contradictions in the real world at first and confusion."

"After they discover that the negative emotional energy in the real world can still be their supplementary source, they take advantage of the influence of the evil game to cause more conflicts and generate more negative emotions. In this way, they can get more energy Supplement, kill two birds with one stone."

Although Huanyan doesn't know what the ultimate goal of these game controllers is, but since they need negative emotional energy, the more the better.

Being able to get energy sources from two ways must be better than a single way.

Then, it is also the most cost-effective to maximize the negative emotions of the two paths as much as possible.

"Although it's just an inference, I think your analysis is very reasonable. This can even explain why we feel that the number of games and the difficulty of the game increase so quickly." Xia Tuo let out a sigh of relief, looking a little Dignified, "But if this is the case, no one can avoid negative emotions at all. Even if they know the purpose of the game controller, I am afraid that most people will find it difficult to control their emotions."

In this way, they wanted to slow down the growth rate of the game controller as much as possible by controlling their emotions before, and this plan was difficult to realize.
