Chapter 1
"I spent a lot of money to send you to Peland College. If you dare to mess around again, I will break your legs!" The middle-aged man sitting in the driver's seat of the car said loudly, and the golden thumbs on his right hand were shining with dazzling light.
"Then beat me, old man! Let's see who can beat whom." The young man in the back seat was sitting very casually. He raised his voice and shouted, "I told you I didn't want to go there! Pelander College, a top-tier bullshit university, is just a rotten, old-fashioned, new-style prison with too many rules!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the car suddenly braked!
The young man in the back seat was caught off guard, and his head hit the back of the seat in front of him with a bang.
"Holy shit!" The young man in the back seat cursed. He raised his head and was about to get angry when he saw the driver frowning and staring ahead.
——It turned out that it was not the middle-aged man in the driver's seat who braked suddenly on purpose, but because of a figure standing in the middle of the road ahead.
The man suddenly jumped out from the side, and for some reason he suddenly stopped in the middle. Fortunately, the man in the driver's seat reacted quickly and the car was not going too fast, so he stopped suddenly.
At this moment, the man was standing straight in the middle of the road, and the vehicle stopped suddenly and did not move. He just spun around in a circle and turned towards them.
Through the front window of the car, you can roughly see the appearance of the person in front of you.
The man had short, smooth black hair, and a small fishbone braid hanging down from his right ear. He was wearing a very bright yellow fluorescent cloak and raincoat, with a medium-sized angel halo decoration on his head.
Although a good-looking person looks good in anything she wears, this outfit still looks awkward and does not look like what ordinary people would wear.
"...What the hell?" The young man sitting in the back seat frowned.
The middle-aged man in the driver's seat also frowned deeply. He raised his hand and patted the horn.
"Dip-dip-"
The piercing whistle sounded, but the people blocking the vehicle didn't seem to hear it at all. They still stood there without moving.
This road is a one-way street, a shortcut taken by the man in the driver's seat to send his son to school as quickly as possible. So if the person in front of them suddenly jumps out from the green belt next to them and doesn't get out of the way, they won't be able to continue driving forward.
The person outside the car stood firm like a stone. The middle-aged man in the driver's seat glanced at his watch and couldn't wait any longer. He unbuckled his seat belt, opened the door and got out of the car, preparing to scold the other person and leave.
But then, the man finally moved.
I saw the weird man in the raincoat walking towards him in two or three steps. He paused for a second as he approached, then he passed the man and went straight to the driver's seat of the car!
Opening the door, getting in the car, closing the door, and starting the car are all a series of actions that are done very naturally.
Before the man could react, he heard the roar of his car starting.
He subconsciously quickly dodged to the side sidewalk, and the next second he dodged, the car sped out and almost hit him!
Middle-aged man:?
The young man still in the back seat of the car:??
No, why did this man steal the car so openly and drive away in such a grand manner??!!
=
Bai Fuling pressed the small square button of [Driving] to control her pixel man to drive.
"It seems to be a highly open game, quite free!" He said to himself with great interest, "I didn't expect the NPC would get off the car and give up his seat."
What he was playing then was a pixel game that suddenly appeared on his mobile phone this morning.
The name of the game is a monotonous question mark, and the icon is a square black block. Bai Fuling didn't remember that he had downloaded this game, but he had nothing to do, so he was going to open it and play it casually.
He didn't waste too long in the self-set session at the beginning and chose to roll the dice randomly. The system came up with a black-haired pixelated figure in a bright yellow raincoat and an angelic aperture.
Bai Fuling saw that the clothes were conspicuous enough and could be seen at a glance among a group of pixel backgrounds, so she chose to log in with satisfaction.
As for whether it's weird or not...you're playing games, of course you have to wear fancy clothes!
A group of black squirming tentacles appeared on the screen. After spreading and unfolding, the game screen appeared in front of you.
His birthplace is a sidewalk next to a green belt, with a line of small words on the left side of the screen.
[You are a new transfer student from Pelander College. Please go to school. 】
——There is no reward label, no threat of punishment, and no time limit. It's more like a game reminder than a fixed task.
Bai Fuling said "Oh", he liked this kind of relaxed and free game.
He used his fingers to control the little man to take two random steps, adjusted to the pace of the game, stopped in the middle of the road, and then started curiously poking at the small icons in the upper left and upper right corners.
"Well... personal status, backpack, map, etc. are all common configurations for single-player pixel games." Bai Fuling muttered, closing her empty backpack except for the [student ID card], "Anyway, let's go to the marked school first."
It was only after he closed the backpack page that he noticed a pixel car next to him. Bai Fuling controlled the villain to turn around and face the car.
"Is this a school bus? It's taking me to school? But I feel like the school bus isn't a car, right?" Bai Fuling wondered, but he still stood there and waited for a few seconds to trigger the plot.
The Pixel car stopped for a moment, and a beep sound came from the top. Then the driver's door suddenly opened, and a man in a black suit walked out.
Why did the driver get down? Bai Fuling was a little confused. He took a step forward and found a [Get in] square button popping up on the side.
Bai Fuling was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly realized: So that's it, he understood. This is not a school bus, but a transportation tool provided by Kai Kai so that he can drive to school!
But this kind of car delivery is a bit strange...but what the heck! Come on if you have a car!
Bai Fuling quickly controlled the little man to step forward, skillfully clicked [Get in the car], [Close the door], [Drive], and then drove away without any delay!
The vehicle starts smoothly and drives on the road. Bai Fuling expanded the small map and looked at the icons on it to locate the driving position.
When a dialog box popped up on the interface, Bai Fuling noticed that there was someone in the back seat of the car. In the back seat of the car was a pixelated man with blond hair and a good-looking avatar. He put one hand on the back of the seat in front of him and said, "Hey, who are you?!"
Bai Fuling glanced at the dialog box and found that the reply part could be entered freely, and voice connection was also possible.
So... it's time to come to the naming stage?
Bai Fuling blinked and casually typed in the name of a game that was often played online: "I am dad."
Golden Retriever in the back seat: "?"
Why did you reply with a question mark? Isn't it okay to use nicknames for relatives? When Bai Fuling saw that the other party did not address her in this way according to the classic procedure, she changed it to another one: "I am my emperor, long live long live long live."
Golden Retriever in the back seat: "??"
It's also a question mark. Bai Fuling thought. Does this game not allow feudal-related titles?
So he entered a more modern nickname: "I am RT-Mart's cold knife who has been killing fish for ten years without shedding tears!"
Golden Retriever in the back seat: "???"
Still a question mark. Bai Fuling put one hand on her chin. If it always doesn't work, it's probably not the fault of the content. Maybe it's because the name is too long?
So he changed it again, simply starting with his own surname, and casually changed it to a simple five-character nickname: "I am Baicai Shui Lingling."
Golden Retriever in the back seat: "..."
Seeing that the back seat finally stopped asking questions, Bai Fuling closed the dialog box with satisfaction. OK, it seems that the nickname was entered successfully!
During the conversation, the vehicle still followed his preset trajectory.
The location of Peland College is not far away, just across the street and around the corner.
Bai Fuling parked her car at the school gate. As soon as he got out of the car, he saw a green taxi parked behind his car, and a familiar little pixel man rushed out of the car.
——It was the driver NPC who gave up his seat to him not long ago.
The NPC rushed over very quickly, with a long bar on its head, and half of it was red.
What kind of progress bar is this? Bai Fuling tilted her head and thought. Red... First of all, think about the good news, is the red love worth the favorability?
This person's initial favorable impression of him was so high! Coupled with the behavior of rushing towards him now, could it be that he was equipped with a housekeeper assistant in the game settings?
But there was no background introduction. The text prompt only said that he should go to school.
Bai Fuling thought for a moment and finally gave up. He decided to follow the text prompts and go to Peland College first.
He controlled the character to move forward, but he couldn't move - the former driver NPC was next to him and raised his hand to grab him.
Bai Fuling slid her fingers on the screen a few times. The pixel character just moved a little faster, but was still stuck in place.
He frowned slightly, then clicked on the settings and found [Unstuck] inside.
After clicking [Escape from Stuck], the pixel character finally got out of the previous state and was able to act as usual. After just a few steps, he was overtaken by the former driver NPC and fell into a state of slow movement again.
What kind of bug is this? It freezes as soon as you interact.
By the way, why does the red bar progress increase every time it gets stuck? Could it be that contact increases the favorability value? This person is not a housekeeper, but a fool??
Bai Fuling said nothing and just clicked [Unstuck]. In the dealings with NPCs, a strange desire to win was aroused.
Being caught up.
[Unstuck].
Being caught up.
[Unstuck].
Being caught up.
[Get out of the jam]!
[Get out of the jam]!!
…
The middle-aged man felt like he was going crazy.
The car was running smoothly but was blocked, and then was robbed inexplicably. I finally stopped a taxi to catch up with him, and was about to get down to ask for an explanation. However, one moment I grabbed the other person's arm, and the next moment there was nothing in my hand, and the strange guy appeared just a punch away.
It's like a creature in a ghost movie, appearing and disappearing, no matter what, you can't catch it. In other words, it was obvious that he caught it one second, but strangely let go of it the next second!
They began to circle in place, like the King of Qin circling a pillar.
The young man with permed blond hair also got out of the car. He had a frown on his face and looked at the weird man with the angelic halo in the yellow raincoat with strange eyes. But when I saw my father's angry and embarrassed look from a distance, I couldn't help but laugh.
"What's wrong, old man, what are you doing grabbing the air?" the young man mocked.
The middle-aged man became even more angry when he heard this. He once again stretched out his hand to grab the strange figure wearing a yellow raincoat, with such force that he staggered over.
He grabbed the cold raincoat, and he was sure that he had grabbed the other person. However, the next moment, his hands were empty, and the man reappeared within an unfettered fist, like a prairie dog teasing him.
The middle-aged man felt his whole head heat up.
He is red and warm.
…
Bai Fuling watched as the red strip on the driver's head that always stuck to him swelled up, then exploded with a "pop", and his whole face turned red.
He was very surprised: Hey, why is the red heartbeat bar full inexplicably?
Oh my gosh, the other person's face turned red!
The author has something to say:
White Poria (fú) Ling (líng), the name of Chinese medicine. It has a wide range of effects, regardless of the four seasons. When combined with various medicines, it can exert its unique effects regardless of cold, warm, wind, or damp diseases. Very suitable for the omnipotent sand sculpture magical savior——
Attack is the consciousness of the world...yes, it is the black tentacle (?) that opens the game. He appears less in the early stage, but there are traces of him everywhere.
The protagonist is a player. Because he thinks he is playing a game, his thinking is relatively clear. His morality is like Schrödinger's high and low~!! Please don't substitute reality~
Please note that all player behaviors in this article are for playing games, please do not practice them in reality!!
