Chapter 2: The 51st Goodbye (Cheng Jie Extra)

Cheng Jie and Zheng Xun walked on the bumpy roads in the community.

Cheng Jie was dealing with the human-faced wolf spiders flying from all directions, wishing he had eight hands.

Zheng Xun was leisurely walking his child, and the little girl in the red cloak followed him obediently.

The battle was fierce on one side, and the years were peaceful on the other.

Cheng Jie cursed.

"Damn, why do I feel like I'm carrying a heavy load?!"

Zheng Xun replied.

"Be more confident, you are not wrong."

"..."

The focus of the copy of the Happy Community is not on solving puzzles. As a novice copy, its puzzles are not difficult. Even Cheng Jie thinks it is simple. It is really simple.

But the premise is that the two NPCs who are sightseeing will not cause trouble for him.

Cheng Jie came to the steamed bun stall, waiting for the boss to beep and then give him the photo.

But this time the boss only beeped, but did not reveal any clues.

The two of them stared at each other across the stall.

Zheng Xun grabbed a bun from the side, and Sister Hong imitated him and took one.

Cheng Jie judged who was hiding the clue from the boss's wandering eyes.

He turned around, faced Zheng Xun, and stretched out his hand.

"Give it to me."

"What?"

Zheng Xun ate the bun in two or three bites, staring, with an expression of "I don't know what you are talking about".

"..."

Cheng Jie was a little speechless.

"I saw it all, it was hidden in your pocket."

Zheng Xun lowered his head, and Cheng Jie added at this time.

"There is a corner exposed."

"..."

Zheng Xun was caught red-handed, so he had to take the half of the old photo and put it in Cheng Jie's hand.

"Here you go! How many times have I told you that the photo ran into my pocket by itself."

He was righteous and confident, without the embarrassment of being exposed on the spot.

Cheng Jie didn't want to argue with him anymore, after all, he only had two precious hours.

He killed his way to the target building, which is where the red cloaked kid lives, and where Zheng Xun lives.

"Do you believe I can let you live here too?"

When Cheng Jie strode upstairs, Zheng Xun and the little girl also ran after him.

"You also arranged me together? Thank you for your kindness, but I don't need it for the time being."

Cheng Jie replied in a busy manner.

Zheng Xun followed with "It's not a problem at all", I don't know if Cheng Jie heard it.

He has already started to hide from the Hanged Woman. One of the reasons why the novice version is so difficult is her existence.

The Hanged Woman is an unsolvable monster, you can only hide and not fight hard.

Zheng Xun glanced up and saw that the dear lady had not been able to comb her hair. He immediately took two steps forward and pulled Cheng Jie's collar, causing Cheng Jie to almost fall down.

Cheng Jie said, "Fuck it", wondering what Zheng Xun was doing again. At this time, Ms. Dao was ready. She crawled towards Cheng Jie from the ceiling in a strange and weird posture at a very fast speed.

Cheng Jie said "Fuck" twice and immediately went to hide in the water tank.

Zheng Xun winked at Ms. Dao, and the latter crawled away leisurely. It seemed that she just wanted to scare Cheng Jie and didn't intend to do anything serious.

Cheng Jie might not have done anything. The audience in the live broadcast room saw her suddenly rushing out and was scared to death.

When Cheng Jie estimated that the time was almost up and came out of the water tank, Zheng Xun disappeared, leaving only the little girl in the red cloak.

The little girl pointed upstairs, meaning that her grandmother's house was here.

Cheng Jie followed her in.

According to the strategy, there is a plot of a real and fake grandmother here, and there is also a reversal of Little Red Riding Hood from an ordinary NPC to a boss.

Cheng Jie is familiar with this. This is the 50th time. He can touch here with his eyes closed.

The two grandmothers still have some fighting power and fight Cheng Jie seriously. But the little girl was a bit perfunctory. This time her face didn't even split into four pieces. She just held up that cute face and opened her mouth and said "ah".

"..."

Cheng Jie was speechless.

He took out the silver wing, but before he could load it, Little Red Riding Hood fell to the ground and pretended to be dead.

...

There are so many new things in the White Tower, and you can also encounter such a scene where the boss doesn't want to live anymore.

Grandma and Little Red Riding Hood disappeared, leaving only Cheng Jie and Zheng Xun who suddenly appeared on the sofa in the living room.

On the right hand side of Zheng Xun, the pink inflatable hammer leaned against the armrest of the sofa.

Zheng Xun said, if you kill me, you can pass the level.

Look, the final boss of this novice book speaks so directly.

Before, players had to guess, but now even the guessing process is omitted, Zheng Xun directly skips these steps.

"In fact, from the beginning, you can pass the level by killing me. You don't need to go through the following steps."

"..." Cheng Jie was silent at first, but he still felt it necessary to argue, "Do you think killing you is as easy as cutting melons and vegetables?"

Of course, many people tried to kill Zheng Xun before, but without exception, they were all killed by Zheng Xun with a smile and sent to restart.

Zheng Xun sighed.

"The clearance conditions are so simple, and you still can't pass. This is a novice copy."

"...How dare you say that! Who puts a super 3S boss in the novice copy!"

"This is to let you look at the White Tower game more objectively, and don't have too high expectations of yourself."

"..."

Zheng Xun looked at Cheng Jie's frustrated expression and smiled.

"But I can give you a chance to kill me today."

"What?"

"Really, I won't resist. The gun in your hand can kill me."

After hearing what he said, Cheng Jie really raised his silver wing and aimed it at Zheng Xun on the sofa.

Zheng Xun rested his hands on the armrests and looked up at the only player in the game.

Cheng Jie loaded the bullet.

The atmosphere froze.

After a long while, the expected gunshot never came, but Cheng Jie put down his arm.

"Forget it."

He actually gave up this precious opportunity.

"If I keep you, I will have connections in the boss circle of the White Tower."

Zheng Xun's eyes suddenly widened, remembering that the man in front of him said exactly the same thing a long time ago.

He smiled with some relief.

After being forgotten by the world, Zheng Xun still had things to do.

The White Tower only disappeared on the surface.

Zheng Xun spent a lot of effort to restore everything to its original state, and he himself dragged the huge White Tower domain to an unknown space.

Here, Zheng Xun killed all the bosses in all the dungeons and successfully became the boss among the bosses. If, as Cheng Jie said, he really became his connection in the boss circle, then Cheng Jie would be able to walk sideways in the entire White Tower in the future.

The White Tower in the second world is actually just a holographic game developed by Jiayi Group. It is a gift given to Zheng Xun by Boss Qin because he is afraid that Zheng Xun will be too lonely.

In this way, Zheng Xun can also shuttle between the two spaces of the White Tower, one real and one fake, and occasionally meet old friends.

Qin Yi remembers Zheng Xun. Even Zheng Xun himself can't explain this matter. How could there be a fish that slipped through the net.

Perhaps he and Zheng Xun had too deep a connection before, from Zheng Xun's childhood to adulthood, spanning two time and space.

Zheng Xun is not actually lonely now.

It's fun to chase after players and scare them, and it's also good to meet old friends occasionally.

Even if they don't remember me, it doesn't matter, they will get to know each other again.

What Zheng Xun said to Cheng Jie is actually right, killing him will pass the level.

He has higher authority than any dungeon boss. As long as he descends on a dungeon, he is a shortcut for players to pass quickly.

But Cheng Jie gave up.

"I will come for the 51st time."

Cheng Jie put his weapon back into the cloud space.

"Be ready to die."

He looked at his watch. There was still two hours left.

"If you have any last words, you can tell them now."

Zheng Xun smiled.

"Actually, I have something to hide from you."

"?" Cheng Jie looked up. "What is it?"

"This is 401. Grandma's house is across the street."

401 is a portal that has pitted countless players. As long as you enter this room, you can't even see the boss's face and will be spit out by the dungeon directly!

Cheng Jie: ? ? ?

"Damn, Zheng Xun, you are playing tricks on me--"

He even asked the real and fake grandmother and Little Red Riding Hood to play this drama with him!

Zheng Xun smiled and waved his hand, watching Cheng Jie's figure fade away little by little.

"See you next time, player 'Please don't bark like a dog'."

Goodbye for the 51st time, Cheng Jie.
