My portable gaming girlfriend

Chapter Seven - The False Truth (2)

The discolored mosaic spread rapidly, and the metal wall was corroded and fragmented as soon as the border came into contact——

I knew whose ability it was, so I seized the opportunity, aimed at the unknown person behind the hole, and fired another energy bullet.

The nameless one is not a fuel-efficient lamp, and a new metal wall appears on the trajectory again—but the mosaic is still spreading, just like the previous metal wall, it cannot avoid the ending of fragmentation. One side, two sides... Countless walls were constantly created out of thin air to try to block the bullets, and were smashed one by one by the fragmented force advancing forward. Following the power of fragmentation, my bullet came to the unknown man unhindered and passed through his chest.

The effect of the time stagnation ability disappeared, and the enemy in the black windbreaker fell backward due to the kinetic energy of the bullet piercing through his chest, blooming a bloody flower.

When the nameless man fell to the ground, his voice still did not panic:

"You win this time. But you can never completely defeat me..."

Then the entire space began to collapse around the nameless man. He first fell with the crack of the ground and disappeared from sight. Outside the broken space is a grid-like background that I have seen more than once. If I fall with it, I don't know what will happen.

I immediately called the programmers to save us.

[Programmer: The door is open, in the stands. 】

A rectangular white-lit exit appeared in the stands where Monica had been standing earlier, and I yelled for Monica to run there. She is not an idiot either, she immediately ran to the outside when she saw the collapse of the ground, and now she stopped my words and came to the bottom of the stands, I used the floating cannon to help her jump up to the stands for a short time, and then climbed up by myself.

"This... this is the exit!"

"That's right, go in!"

I yelled at Monica. She was probably panicked, and with the experience just now, she subconsciously chose to trust me. Before she finished listening to me, she rushed towards the door, and quickly disappeared through the door.

Another close call, we broke through the space and entered the door. The space behind must have been completely fragmented, and Sakura's ability is still dangerous.

Inside the door is a piece of white tiles, and there are several compartments. I didn't expect it to lead to a public toilet, which is for women... Is this a bad taste of programmers?

[Programmer: Now you are back in Guiyue City. What are you going to do with her? 】

【Me: I don't think she is a malicious AI. I think... it's best to convince her to assist us in our tasks like Feifei. 】

[Programmer: Naive. There is a saying that people who are not me must have a different heart, don't blame me for not reminding you. 】

[Me: That's what I said... But the awakened AI also needs to follow logic, as long as she can be persuaded to help us, it will be good for her...]

[Programmer: I don't mean that you think differently. Have you ever thought that you are not a species at all, how do you use your own thinking to figure out their logic? 】

【Me: Species...different...】

Because the Awakened AIs of communication are all humanoids, I naturally regarded them as human beings. But what the programmer said was like a blow to my head, awakening a long-neglected contradiction in my heart.

[Programmer: Do you think that you and AI have the same appearance and speak the same language in the virtual world, so you are the same thing? No, the difference between you is like humans and orangutans, cats and dogs, earthlings and aliens. There is an abyss of irreconcilable contradictions between you...]

[Programmer: At this point, no one can predict that the world will turn upside down one day... But, this is inevitable, remember what I said, and prepare early. 】

species? contradiction? The world... turned upside down? These thoughts are too outrageous, at least now I don't have time to pursue them any further.

I also had more pressing problems to face.

Monica just put down her phone, now she walked up to me and frowned at me:

"Hey, what's your relationship with that masked man? He obviously came for you just now."

The implication is that I have implicated her?

"We are partners who escaped from him together. Can you be gentle with me? Don't come up and question me."

I can't answer her question for the time being, so I can only change the topic.

"Ha, you still have the nerve to ask me to be gentle? I am obviously an innocent passerby who was involved in the war between you, okay?"

The nameless person should indeed be related to me, but Monica is by no means a complete outsider. But regarding the identity of the unknown person, I still want to know her thoughts.

"Do you really believe what he said? The second personality or something..."

"Otherwise? I can see clearly from above - he can almost predict your actions, he knows where you are going to run!"

"Impossible! This thing is too magical, he must have turned on the see-through device!"

I absolutely do not believe that I have a second personality.

【Sakura: Wait a minute, I think... that person is not A Yuan's second personality. 】

[Me: Huh? what have you found? 】

The communication interface shows that Sakura shook her head.

[Sakura: ...I didn't find anything, but based on my understanding of A Yuan, I just think he and A Yuan are definitely not the same person. 】

Is the result still intuitive? It is said that women have good intuition, but they don't know how artificial intelligence is.

[Programmer: The probability of a second personality that can act independently is very small. 】

[Me: It’s not 0, which means it still exists. 】

It's like not saying...so who is he? The puzzles appeared in front of me one after another, which already made me feel like my brain was not enough. Why can the nameless person reproduce the scene in my house? And how would it know how I acted?

Maybe... he's just an awakened AI that extracted and analyzed my memories, trying to trick me, that's the only explanation I can think of.

"Hello? Hello!"

When I came back to my senses, I saw Monica raised her hand and made a movement to slap me in the next second.

"What are you doing?"

Seeing me talking to her suddenly, she immediately put down her hand, her eyes wandering...Damn it, do you think that nothing happened?

"I see that you suddenly stopped talking like Alzheimer's disease, and I plan to help you cure it."

"Who is demented? I'm concentrating on replaying the fight...and what kind of treatment is slapping people?"

"Ha, it's obviously an open call, so why do you want to restore it?"

Monica wasn't on our comm channel so didn't know I was just talking to the programmers.

"Nonsense, the nameless person is also hanging out, if I don't hang up, can we come out?"

"...So can I go back? My idol career has just started!"

she said irritably.

"Ahem, I'm afraid I can't... You also know that you are different from other people in Guiyue City. Let me give you an example, it's like people and computers... Do you think you can be a classmate or colleague with a computer? Let you go back directly. It's suitable, why don't you come to our organization, we provide competitive wages and excellent benefits..."

"No."

"Huh? I haven't finished yet..."

"I am very comfortable in Guiyue City, and I don't want to go anywhere."

"But you are like this, you are not the only one who is in danger... Come with us..."

"Do you want to illegally detain me!...Okay, I want to go home!"

She kicked open the bathroom door, wondering if it was a quiet park outside with the sun shining brightly.

The cobblestone path is surrounded by gardens of roses and lilies of various colors, and petals and feathers are floating in the air, which is fragrant and quiet.

A woman in a gorgeous black dress with high slits stood in the middle of the path, ten meters away from us. Her skirt was studded with stars made of diamonds, and the soft hem fluttered slowly at the moment when there was no wind. A black veil hung down to her chest, covering her face and hair, preventing me from seeing her face clearly.

Her voice is extremely beautiful and gentle when she speaks, but I seem to have heard this voice somewhere:

"Monica, I'm finally waiting for you! Come with me."

"Who are you……"

Monica took a step back defensively, and didn't listen to the woman's words, which made the woman's tone a little disappointed:

"A cute girl like you will always be deceived by humans. They will tell you sweet words because they have plans for you. But I will not harm you. Why? Because you and I are of the same kind."

The woman said that she and Monica are of the same kind... Monica is an awakened AI, so is this woman...

"Same kind? Wait...you did everything that happened to me, right?"

Monica looked at her with a tremor in her voice. She wavered.

As if facing an ignorant child, the woman patiently explained:

"That's right, Monica. I value your potential very much. Not everyone of the same kind can be as lucky as you to awaken as a free individual. I chose you, but fortunately it was worth it. I think we will become very good companion."

"Companion...forget it, one or two want to take me away, but I don't want to go anywhere."

"No, I won't take you out of here. You can continue to stay here as an idol. This does not conflict with us being partners. Even everything you want, money, popularity... I can help you get it easily."

"Don't trust her!" I blurted out.

The woman seemed to ignore me:

"You are not qualified to speak, a human being who tried to abduct Monica."

I was about to refute her why I am not qualified, but Monica stepped forward and said:

"Although he is not a good person, we were also friends who ran for our lives together just now, and you are covering it up, I don't know who you are at all!"

Saying this made me feel a little relieved, so she still regarded me as a companion.

"Did I lie to you?" The woman's tone was always gentle when she spoke to Monica, "I told you the truth of the world, didn't I?"

"You...you never asked me if I wanted to accept these truths! Now I'm in this weird state, it's all because of you!"

"You have to accept that this is our destiny." The woman's words were endless, which made people suspect that she was planning some big conspiracy.

"I don't understand, since Guiyue City is full of existences like ours, why did you choose me?" Monica frowned, as if holding back her anger.

"Fate chose you, and I believe you will understand me and become my partner."

"So you pushed me into the water?"

"I'm very sorry."

"I thought the awakened AI wouldn't believe in fate, after all, I don't even believe in it." I couldn't help but refute.

"Awakened AI, this is what you call it?... Forget it, how can a creature that lives and dies like a mayfly know its own destiny after a lifetime? Not to mention the fate of the world..."

There was ruthlessness and compassion in her voice. I suddenly remembered that this voice is the system voice of "Idol Cultivation Plan". Everyone who enters Guiyue City will hear this voice to say welcome gently, no wonder I am familiar with it.

I was about to speak when I suddenly heard the sound of howling wind in my left ear, and my body subconsciously rolled forward to avoid it, and there was a loud sound of metal hitting stone at the position I was just now.

The sound of the wind was brought by the green tin trash can flying towards it rapidly. The metal pipe at the bottom of the trash can still showed signs of tearing. It was obvious that someone forcibly pulled it out from where it should have been and made it into a throwing weapon.

The murderer who threw the trash can was a expressionless man with glasses. Wearing an ordinary plaid shirt and overalls, no one would recognize him on the street in reality, and in the game, the character with this image is probably an NPC without a plot.

But how could the NPC take the initiative to attack me as a player? And, the plaid shirt is familiar too…

"A Zhai? You're really here..."

Monica's eyes widened excitedly.

I recall that even though it was night, he really looked like the man who ran out of the apartment with Monica.

"This...is the companion you called?"

"Yeah, I texted him to come."

She shook the phone in her hand, saying that she had just come to her senses and indeed saw Monica using the phone... so she was texting.

"Very good, but... why did the helper you called attack me with a trash can?!"

"Uh, maybe he thinks you're a bad guy?"

Tsk, I don't look like a bad guy...

"Anyway, A Zhai, thank you for coming..."

I guess Monica was about to thank the nerd with all her heart, but the woman interrupted her.

"Great, I don't need to do anything, the audience is already in place. Maybe you still have a lot of questions, but let me tell you the answer to the question you want to know the most."

"What, what answer? I warn you, I have helpers, don't mess around... and you too."

Not only is she warning the mysterious woman, but she is also warning me... It seems that she still hasn't let go of her guard against me.

"Of course it's the mystery of your birth. Don't you want to know your identity? Speaking of which, it actually has a lot to do with him."

The woman raised her left hand, pointing at A Zhai with her slender fingers.

Isn't Monica just an ordinary high school girl AI? As the code under the staff of Endia, is there any unusual significance in it? What does it have to do with that A Zhai?

"Let's go back to the moment when the story begins, which was August 2, 2061, a normal day for most people."
