holo hunter

September 9th.

The sparrows on the window sill were close together, preening each other's feathers with their beaks. They propped their chins on the ruts and stared at the alleyway in a daze.

After knocking three times, the door was opened.

"How's it going? I've almost recovered."

"Well, I should be able to move around normally." Lou Zhe turned his head, smiled easily, and then stretched. Although he was not wearing any clothes, his entire upper body was tightly wrapped in bandages.

Old Pande threw the new clothes he just bought on Lou Zhe's head. The original clothes had become tattered in the battle, and it was time to change into new clothes.

Over the past few days, he has witnessed similar expressions countless times, and he knows very well that such a dilapidated old house cannot be closed for too long.

"Thank you. Thank you for saving me."

His fingertips ran across the black and gray printed long-sleeved T-shirt. The overalls placed on the other side also had windy side drawstrings.

"Save you? You may have misunderstood. Even if I, old Pan De, have all the abilities, I can't take you back from the knife of death." After scratching his shy belly, old Pan De denied it, "Besides,

For a human like you who has offended Mashu Ying and the higher-ups of the Santoli Heart, which doctor would dare to treat you? As for me, I know nothing about these medical common sense. If you really die. Considering that there is no cemetery in the holographic world, then

I can only sell all your skin, bones, and internal organs. Only by doing this can you use the little value of your life left."

Old Pande spread his hands and added: "And your organ is in tatters, so I'm afraid you won't be able to sell it for a good price. The amount of waveguides replaced may not be enough to cover the food expenses for these days."

"Damn it, how could you criticize your good brother like this?" Lou Che jumped up from the bed and threw old Pan De to the ground, "How could it not be you? You can't be shy, right?"

At the end of the battle, no other figure appeared in his memory.

"Idiot, let me go. It's really not me!"

Old Pande knew some of the reasons. Due to the influence of the shackles, Lou Zhe, who was unable to use the waveguide, may not have realized that his father had completely disappeared from his body.

After getting up again, he took out the e-cigarette from his pocket, still hesitating in his heart whether to tell him the truth or not.

"Then just think that I saved you. However, I have to explain in advance that this idea is definitely wrong." The flint flashed and the smoke was lit. He continued, "Try on new clothes.

First of all, I don’t know much about young people’s styles, so you can just make do with it. You know, this is not something I’m good at at my age.”

"Then these messy bandages can be untied. I don't know which fool's work they are. They are so stupid."

"You curse again!"

As the bandages slipped off and scattered all over the floor, the blackened arms seemed to have grown new skin again. The traces of messy blood vessels on the back also completely disappeared.

"Is it so fast? Even for ordinary burns, scabs will only form in 5-7 days, and complete recovery will take at least two weeks."

I saw Lou Zhe in front of me holding his shoulder blade with his left hand, straightening his right hand and turning it. His slightly lowered hands suddenly clenched his fists, and the abdominal muscles and chest muscles that appeared on his upper body began to bulge.

After showing a flying bird-like stretching posture, he said to old Pander: "In good condition."

Old Pander breathed a sigh of relief. Maybe the so-called common sense is aimed at old people like him.

After putting on a round-neck printed T-shirt and drawstring trousers, his whole look changed instantly. There were still some scratches on his clean face, which were protected by hanging broken hair.

There was some noise in the house, coming from the Dali clock placed near the door. The twisted clock face seemed to be falling towards the exposed old wooden floor, and the modified image hands made creaking sounds from time to time when they rotated.

There is no sound, and the time it indicates is not very accurate.

"An unexpected fit!" Old Pander clapped his hands, "Is it time to say goodbye?"

If he dared to speak so proactively, he must have thought it over carefully. If he didn't have special feelings, saying this would sound like he was driving away guests.

Lou Zhe did not answer, and turned his gaze to the bright light on the ground. In the sunlight, he could not sincerely express his inner thoughts.

"It's breathing." Old Pande said proudly, "The breathing produced in different states contains different meanings. Your breathing has changed slightly compared to normal conditions, but with my many years of experience,

I can still feel the short and urgent emotions contained in it. I just kept silent out of politeness. If I had been tougher, I might have aroused your rebellious psychology. About three days ago, you wanted to leave here.

Already."

Completely guessed.

The boy with bristled hair replied awkwardly: "Sure enough, if you live longer, there is still something to be proud of."

"You fart, I have a lot to be proud of."

Now, they walked out of the bedroom. Inside the dark green square glass lampshade was an ancient smoked lamp that was lit. The yellowed old-fashioned printing paper roll and a pile of parts placed on the countertop seemed to be dismantled from an old-fashioned printer.

The parts were broken, and the leather sofa was in tatters, but you could still sit down on it.

"So, have you thought of your next destination?" He put out the cigarette butt, put it on the ground and stepped on it.

"The Dwarf Kingdom. That guy named a place. He said that a craftsman who can unlock the shackles on my hands can be found in Primrose Mountain in the Dwarf Kingdom."

Old Pande silently recited the words "Dwarf Country" again. In the holographic world, it is synonymous with implant systems, neural splicing, chip manufacturing countries and micro-bionics. And Primrose Hill is the most famous craftsman in the "Dwarf Country"

Gathering place - that's not an easy place to find. Old Pander thought to himself.

"Then you may have to move about forty kilometers north. But the biggest problem now is that you can't use the waveguide, and you will encounter more troubles along the way. Putting aside the transportation problems, you always

You can’t finish the forty kilometers without eating or drinking.”

Lou Zhe clicked his tongue, indeed, he really hadn't considered these issues.

It has been nearly a month since he came to the holographic world, and he still hasn't fully accepted the unique pattern of this world.

However, while he was still having a headache over these problems, Old Pande took out a black gold memory card from his trouser pocket and pushed it in front of Lou Zhe across the old-fashioned wooden table with peeling paint.

"A little care is enough to cover your expenses for half a month."

He lit another cigarette, and even recalled the time when he used to live here in his mind.

"Everyone who has stayed in this house will eventually be successful. Me too, and so did the previous landlord. But I have forgotten what he did for a living. Anyway, when he moved here, the ground was covered with all kinds of things.

There are all kinds of signal optical cables, and people looking for his technical assistance are lined up in the alley downstairs. Of course, this has nothing to do with you, I just want to say, I wish you success."

"Thank you, old Pander. It's my honor to meet you."

Putting his fisted arms on his knees, Lou Zhe readjusted his breathing and said: "That guy named Dai Xiangan actually said that Bo Duanling was an experimental subject. How could she be an experimental subject? She is a living human being. This point

I know it better than anyone else."

"There are indeed many experimental subjects in this world, and their lives have been bound to experiments from birth. But Duan Ling is not that individual. She has rich emotions, which can only be achieved by real living entities.

.If you stay with a holographic person for a long time, you will find that even though it carries a self-sequencer, the emotional factors that can be generated in this mode will gradually evolve in a scarce way."

"What do you mean? I don't quite understand."

"It means that the longer the holographic time is, the more obvious the human body's emotional deficit disorder will be. It will be difficult for them to obtain the emotions that humans can easily obtain."

"That Banduan Ling must be a human being!" Lou Zhe said firmly.

"That's right. So, next you have to manage your body's condition well, and you can't be as reckless as before. If you think about it again, even if you take back Banduan Ling, what's the point? Companionship is relief.

The only medicine for the pain of life. Please swear in the name of life, swear by the friendship between you and me that spans more than fifty years, swear by the supervision obligation that I perform on behalf of Bo Duan Ling, and never do anything that harms your own life again.

The measures have been taken, is that okay?”

"Yeah. I'll keep it in mind."

The pass pendant that slipped out of old Pende's cuff was spinning on the table. He recognized the source of this thing.

"Passage Crystal. This is a transfer crystal developed for the senior engineers of the Santorini Heart. It can only be effective in the holographic world. The way it is used is that when you walk to the pass, you will encounter the regional guardian. Since you are not

You are not a so-called resident of the holographic world, and you are not holographic, so you cannot be released. In this case, you can use the transfer channel specially set up in the work console. The method of use is to insert the passage crystal into

into the groove, and then choose the nearest area that can be reached."

Lou Zhe nodded.

"It should be noted that every time it is used, it will enter a thirty-day cooling period. During this process, the crystal will slowly recover its energy, and you should have noticed that there is no so-called identity verification for this kind of pass crystal. If it is taken away by others,

If so, they can still be used. Considering this situation, be sure to keep it carefully."

During the explanation process, the two people who stood up gradually approached the door.

It wasn't until the dazzling sunlight made Lou Zhe unable to open his eyes that he realized it was time to say goodbye.

"Well, goodbye, old Pan De." Lou Zhe kept waving, feeling as if he was saying goodbye to his blood relatives, "If I succeed in taking back Bo Duan Ling, we will come to see you again.

. At that time, we will sit down and celebrate properly. Maybe I can drink some wine, and I can barely be regarded as a little adult.

"I wish you good luck." This was the third cigarette. The rising smoke filled the corners of old Pende's wrinkled eyes. He originally wanted to say that the place you will step into in the future will be better than the one he has experienced before.

Everything is much crueler, but when I think about it, I feel that I am too redundant. No adventurer would stop just because of a few gossips from others. He is not it, and neither is his little brother.

He locked the door again. The old bungalow did not use the latest digital integration methods. Old Pande had been reluctant to replace this cold lock cylinder. He was not willing to replace everything in his memory with the appearance of the holographic world.

He also has something he wants to protect. It seems that people are actually similar in some aspects.

The moment he buttoned the keyhole, he left this place full of memories.

…

Odin District. Memory Lane.

"I'm really going to swear. There are so many places, how can I find a reliable side investment repairman?"

Dai Xiangan could have left these troubles to his younger brothers and sisters, but if the target was his niece, Bo Duan Ling, it would be safer to do it himself.

The picture flashed from the pyrolytic carbon living body chamber in the heart of Santorius, and Band Ling put on the princess dress again. Under the illumination of the searchlight, she was as beautiful as ice.
