Arknights, but all characters are NPCs?

"Brother Meng."

After a long while, Arturo spoke softly: "You are not actually my butler, and I am actually just in a dream, right?"

Wow, did you finally realize something was wrong?

Also.

Lu Shang nodded.

The characters who play with people's hearts can't be stupid. The fact that Tutu acted so stupid in the first two times was probably because he was more frightened than surprised.

So Lu Shang did not answer, but asked: "Miss, why did you come to such a conclusion?"

"Because you didn't deny it, Brother Meng."

Arturo smiled and said:

"Just a little joke."

"The real reason is that I have looked for you, Brother Meng, in the real world. I have gone to bars to look for those mercenaries and observed them. They have calluses on their hands, are exposed to the wind and sun, have dark skin, behave rudely, and are greedy for money. But I don't see these in you, Brother Meng."

"Brother Meng, you must have received a good education and have never done any heavy physical work. How could you end up working as a mercenary?"

"If it's because of the family bankruptcy and the reason is money, then it conflicts with what you said, Brother Meng, that you took the commission because you wanted my body."

"And if you, Brother Meng, are a rich kid and joined the mercenaries just for fun and excitement, then you waited for me for so many years, just to watch me grow up... Brother Meng, you are a little too infatuated."

infatuation?

I?

Even Lu Shang couldn't help but raise his eyebrows when he heard this comment.

Some say he is a dog, some say he is a scumbag, and some say he is not like a human being.

But this is the first time I have heard the evaluation of being infatuated.

Look, look, what a good girl! How could she be blind at such a young age?

And Arturo could see Lu Shang's reaction clearly through the mirror.

So she smiled, stood up, turned around and looked at Lu Shang.

"Brother Meng, didn't you say that? I am good at playing with people's hearts, but I know nothing about my own heart."

“So before I came here, I played it for myself.”

"But the most real desire in my heart is not to find you, Brother Meng, nor is it to comfort myself. Brother Meng, do you know what it is?"

“It’s a dream.”

Because the gap between reality and dreams is too big.

In the dream, she could fly once every 5 minutes, without stopping.

If Lu Shang hadn't wanted Arturo to achieve the achievement of "generating electricity 100 times" by herself, Lu Shang would have even let her fly all the time.

If we add buffs such as multiple amplification, let alone 99 times, 999 times is not a problem as long as there is enough time, the kind that can fly once a minute or once a second.

But what about her in reality? From morning till night, all day, 15 times.

This is not even a fraction of what I paid for. I am so exhausted and not satisfied at all.

Even if she was hypnotized and didn't realize where she was, her brain would remember -

"Just go to sleep, and when you open your eyes, you'll feel great."

Does this count as a bug found by Arturo?

"So I lay on the bed sheet that was soaked with water but not yet dry, endured the hunger from not having eaten a drop of water for a day, and forced myself to fall asleep."

"And when I opened my eyes again, Brother Meng, you appeared in front of me."

"What a coincidence, isn't it? My dear...brother Meng."

Arturo was smiling, and the corners of her mouth were clearly raised.

After only three attempts, she was able to get a glimpse of the entire dream.

Little by little, she began to try to take control of the initiative.

"It's just that right now, there's only one thing that's still unknown."

"Is this my dream or yours, Brother Meng?"

"If it is mine, then is everything that has happened in the past few days the truth that I desire most in my heart?"

Arturo is like a cunning little fox.

Her body has matured, but her soul is still young.

Although her every frown and smile is captivating, it still lacks the charm of that time.

But this combination with Arturo's own temperament is just right.

It makes her look like a bad woman who is obviously an expert in love, but likes to pretend to be an ignorant and pure girl, making the little virgin fall in love with her.

"But what if it's not?"

"If this dream is yours, brother, then——"

Snap.

She raised her slender hands and unbuttoned her clothes. The thin clothes slid down her shoulders and spread to the ground.

Arturo faced Lu Shang and tilted his head gently: "Then...Brother Meng, will you also show me your true desire?"

... ... ...

... ...

...

From being forced to follow the script the first time, to trying to deviate from the script the second time, and finally the third time... taking the initiative.

It can be said that Arturo successfully turned the tables and became the master. He is much better than Ms. W, who only cursed "You son of a bitch! Fuck you! Die!" every time and then rushed forward to give it to him for free.

So Arturo is in a good mood now.

She walked onto the stage with a cello in her hands, wearing high heels and walking like a cat.

Tick, tick.

Compared with the previous two times, the opera house was still dead silent for the third time.

However, unlike the previous two times when the audience was so quiet that not even the sound of breathing could be heard, this time the "dead silence" was simply because the number of audience members was too small.

The original audience had long been dispersed, and now only a handful of people were sitting in the audience.

W was watching the play, Kal'tsit was emotionless, Theresa was blinking her eyes in anticipation of the play, the Doctor was hugging a little rabbit and playing, and -

Sofia, who seemed to be the only normal person and had guessed what would happen next, was blushing and trying to run away.

Oh, and there is also the maid, Xinteleya, who is holding on to her eldest daughter tightly, hoping that her eldest daughter's eyes will be defiled by the obscene play.

Tick, tick.

"oops...?"

Arturo made a small noise of surprise.

Because that maid...isn’t she the waitress who served her food in real life?

"I see..."

Tick, tick.

Arturo stood in the center of the stage with a faint smile.

When a beam of light shines down, and the audience's eyes are attracted by it,

Arturo casually threw the cello in his hand aside, and also threw away her half-naked clothes.

"Next, please enjoy the cello performance."

176. The Dance of the Swan and Arturo's Ears

Arturo is like a proud white swan.

So naturally, she began to play the classic piece "Dance of the Four Little Swans".

She stood on tiptoe lightly, lifting her left leg slightly.

A head of black hair fell gently, wrapped around the ankles and pinched around the toes.

She used her hair as strings and lightly placed the bow on them. She treated herself as a cello and played silently.

Even without the sound of the piano, the beautiful body and the graceful dancing posture are enough to make people indulge in it.

But unfortunately, it seems that some viewers do not understand the rule of watching without saying anything.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, this is really a big deal, it's really a human instrument huh? Why is he playing the cello? Why not perform a flute?"

"Take off all your clothes, leaving only the suspenders and black stockings. I'm betting one source stone with you. This must have been the idea of ​​that bastard Lu Shang."

"cough..."

"Kal'tsit, what are you coughing for? Those two cat ears on your head are bigger than mine. Can't you hear the ticking sound just now?"

"Those two must have had sex backstage. Even if they didn't, they must have been deducted. They were so happy that they remembered, "Hey, there are still audiences waiting for me. I can't let them refund their tickets." "

"W..."

"Uh... Your Highness? What's wrong? Do you need me to keep my voice down?"

"Ah, no, no, I was just wondering, W, your seat is close to the back of the stage, so please help me check when Mr. Lu Shang will go on stage?"

"Theresa... stop adding fuel to the fire now."

"But am I telling the truth? The piece is obviously The Four Little Swans, but Arturo is the only little swan on the stage right now. There must be three more - excluding Mr. Lu Shang, there must be two more... Kal'tsit, Kal'tsit, do you think Mr. Lu Shang will choose me as the lucky audience member?"

"..."

"Xintelaiya...let me go, I'm leaving now..."

"Where are you going, young lady? The show has just begun, and we haven't even reached the most exciting part yet."

"It's too late to get to the exciting part! Stop holding me, let go!"

"Heh... Miss, you know you're anxious now? You dragged me here from the beach without caring about anyone before?"

"Okay, okay, I'll go back to the beach with you, Xinteleya, okay?"

"No, young lady, your breasts are too big. If I choose a swimsuit with you, I might get furious and backstab you. So for your safety, young lady, just sit here and watch."

Da da.

Amid the slightly noisy murmurs of the audience, Lu Shang, the second little swan in “The Four Little Swans,” finally took the stage.

Theresa in the audience blinked her eyes when she saw this, and when Lu Shang was about to select the lucky audience member, she was the first to raise her hand.

But a pity.

When Lu Shang walked behind Arturo and put his arms around her waist, the music played changed.

That's the waltz.

So at that moment, the piece being played finally had sound.

Guji.

Tick.

"Well..."

"Making strange noises on stage is considered a performance error, isn't it? My dear Miss Arturo."

The two of them hugged each other, whispering in each other's ears.

"You are so mean...my dear brother Meng...well..."

"If you, Miss Arturo, hadn't exposed your bad nature behind the scenes, why would I have been mean to you?"
