I may not be human [holographic]

"A Christmas ball?"

Lin Zhengyan was very surprised.

He always thought that "Star Trace Era" was a game based on fighting and killing, but he didn't expect that the winter event would have a dance party as the theme.Well, even though the purpose of the dance is to collect the strange "dancer's energy", it will be used to strengthen the city's defenses against the coming epic cavitation beasts...

But at least the event is not bloody and violent at all.

"That's right, the theme of this year's winter event should be the Christmas Ball." Shen Xingyue picked up the dishes that were almost eaten with chopsticks, and looked at Lin Zhengyan with a smile.

Thinking of Shi Changan whose name was still grayed out on the communication panel and not online, he felt very proud.

It's not in vain that he went online early this morning and called Lin Zhengyan to Zhiweilou for dinner. It seems that Shi Chang'an hadn't had time to kidnap Lin Zhengyan as a dance partner, so it's no wonder he intervened.

"This year?" Lin Zhengyan asked curiously, "Are the activities different every year?"

Seeing Lin Zhengyan's surprised face, Shen Xingyue smiled and said, "You haven't played this game for a long time, so you don't know the habits of "Star Trace". Although the daily activities are all fighting types, the entertainment activities during the New Year's and holidays, in order to let you Everyone can have fun together, and they will definitely open a copy that is highly entertaining and low in competition, such as last year's riddle-guessing maze."

Lin Zhengyan nodded, but stopped talking and ate in silence.

"For the Christmas ball, it should be a pas de deux." Shen Xingyue asked, "Have you considered who you'll be with?"

Lin Zhengyan put down his chopsticks and said, "It's obvious."

Shen Xingyue's purpose was too obvious, he had already seen it.He still remembered that the Shen Xing Corps was the enemy of the Space-Time Corps. Although he didn't dislike Shen Xingyue Ting, he couldn't give the opponent a chance to make progress.

"You want to be with Shi Chang'an?" Shen Xingyue was surprised.

Could it be that he was wrong?Did Shi Changan invite Lin Zhengyan to the Christmas ball last night?

No, no, in that case, Lin Zhengyan wouldn't be so surprised about the dance.

Shen Xingyue thought for a while, and said seriously: "You don't really want to have a relationship with Shi Chang'an, do you?"

Lin Zhengyan: ...

"If you want to be in love, you might as well choose me." Shen Xingyue opened the folding fan in a hurry, fanned the wind beside the snow-covered window, and said, "I am much more interesting than that guy. And look at my furry Ears and tail, don't you want to touch them?"

Lin Zhengyan said expressionlessly, "I remember you said you were a straight man?"

Shen Xingyue was overjoyed: "Yes, I'm a straight man. But the game of love... is actually no different from children's playing house, right? No one knows who the other party is in reality, right? Is it just role-playing? Nobody takes this kind of online dating seriously."

No one will be serious?

Lin Zhengyan pursed his lips and looked out the window.

He doesn't understand how far the Internet has developed in this era, nor does he know the precise definition of online dating in the culture here, and he doesn't even know what the real attitude of the spectators in last night's post when they joked about Chang'an .

All he knew was that he couldn't be emotional in this world.Absolutely not.

Lin Zhengyan clenched his fists, suppressed the inexplicable restlessness in his heart, and emphasized to himself:

Absolutely... no!

"Speaking of which, have you ever played Rubik's Cube in Thirteen City?" Shen Xingyue asked.

Lin Zhengyan came back to his senses and said, "No, I haven't been to Thirteen City."

Fort City No. 13 is a very special city in "Star Trace Era". There are no system function buildings, corps buildings and residents' homes in the whole city.In this city, all the buildings are used to provide entertainment - ranging from playgrounds to small chess and card rooms, as well as disco nightclubs, bars and cinemas, and so on.

The entertainment facilities here have nothing to do with all the rewards and values ​​in the game. It is a pure consumption place. Participating in any entertainment activities here will not consume physical strength. However, most of the entertainment items here must cost star coins to participate.

Lin Zhengyan had no way to recharge star coins, so he was not interested in Thirteen Cities at all.

But Shen Xingyue misunderstood: "Could it be that you are underage?"

In order to prevent minors from indulging in the casino in the game, No. 13 City has strict conditions for entering the city: only players with real names who have reached the age of 13 can enter No. [-] City.

Lin Zhengyan said: "Underagers can't open 90% of the pain."

Shen Xingyue remembered: "Oh yes, then you are an adult. Why, you haven't been to Thirteen City?"

Lin Zhengyan: "No money."

Shen Xingyue smiled and said: "It's okay, I invite you to go. This Christmas Ball copy is likely to copy the game mode of the Dancing Rubik's Cube. You should practice more, which will help you get high scores in the event and hit the ranking rewards. If you have nothing to do, shall we go to Thirteen City now?"

"I still have something to do." Lin Zhengyan directly refused, stood up and said, "I won't disturb you."

"Hey, wait a minute!" Shen Xingyue Ting suddenly stretched out his hand to grab Lin Zhengyan's wrist, smiling so much that his eyes narrowed.

He pointed to his communication panel, and said: "Shi Changan is online, I want to tease him, you wait before leaving."

Lin Zhengyan looked at his flickering communication panel, on which was a message from Shi Changan: "Where are you?"

Shen Xingyue said anxiously: "If Shi Changan sends you a message, don't reply first, wait for me to tease him!"

Lin Zhengyan was actually a little curious, wanting to know how Shen Xingyue Ting would tease Shi Changan, so he turned off the communication panel directly, and sat back with his arms folded.

Shen Xingyue generously changed his panel to public mode and showed it to Lin Zhengyan.

Shen Xingyue: "Shi Shen, I have invited a Christmas dance partner, who do you think is it?"

Shi Changan: "..."

Shen Xingyue: "Guess!"

Shi Changan: "You touched my man again?"

Shen Xingyue said: "It's not yesterday."

Shi Chang'an: "I mean Lin Zhengyan."

Shen Xingyue: "Lin Zhengyan is your man?"

Shi Changan: "Where are you?"

Shen Xingyue: "Of course it's a good place to practice dance!"

After that, Shi Changan didn't reply to any messages.

Lin Zhengyan felt that there was information access to his communication panel, and he clicked on it, and it really was Shi Changan.

Shi Changan: "Why are you with Yue Ting?"

Shi Changan: "I'll go find you."

Shen Xingyue looked at Lin Zhengyan's movements and expressions, and burst out laughing: "You saw Chang'an's words just now, 'my people', tsk tsk, it's really ambiguous..."

Lin Zheng said, "I am indeed his man."

The transaction relationship is clean and tidy.

"So, you don't have to bother to dig me anymore, I won't leave the Space-Time Corps. At least not for the time being."

Shen Xingyue looked at Lin Zhengyan's serious expression, blinked his eyes, and finally shrugged his shoulders and leaned back in the chair after a while, and said with a smile, "Well, you always know what I want to do."

Lin Zheng said, "I'm just more self-aware."

He knew that he was popular here only because of the time star pattern on his chest, and as for the speculation of attracting two high-level players with his charm... he was already past the age where he would have such a dream.He even felt that the reason why Shi Changan would take care of him and please him in every possible way was actually only because of his time attribute.

At this moment, Lin Zhengyan's communication was turned on again.

Shi Changan: "Aren't you dancing Rubik's Cube?"

It was only then that Lin Zhengyan realized that what Shi Changan had received was the wrong message from Shen Xingyueting, so he immediately explained: "No, we are in Zhiweilou, the sixth city."

Over there, Shen Xingyue Ting, who put the communication panel back to his own view, also received the bombardment from Shi Changan:

Shi Changan: "Chen Yueting, those who dare to touch me, have you thought about the consequences?"

Shi Changan: "My brother and your sister are doing well, and he is considering visiting your home soon."

Shi Changan: "I think, why not suggest him to choose December 12th? Then you brothers can enjoy a luxurious dinner on Christmas Eve that lasts for six hours."

Shen Xingyue Ting: ...

After eating for six hours, he can still play games!

Shen Xingyue: "Dad! I made a mistake about Dad!"

Shen Xingyue: "Don't let your brother come to my house on Christmas Eve! Otherwise, I won't be able to participate in the event!"

Shi Chang'an: "It's just fine that I can't participate."

Shen Xingyue: "I'm just kidding! Lin Zhengyan didn't agree to me! He said he wanted to form a team with you!"

Shi Chang'an didn't reply for a while.

Shen Xingyue couldn't help asking: "Are you serious about him?"

Shi Changan replied, "He's quite cute."

Shen Xingyue: "No matter how cute he is, it might be fake data. He didn't hang up his purely scanned achievement badge. Who knows what he looks like in real life?"

Shi Changan: "...I don't want to develop into reality either."

Shen Xingyue: "!!!"

Shen Xingyue: "You just want to be in love with games? Don't develop reality?"

Shi Changan: "Yes."

Shen Xingyue: "...Brother, I didn't expect you to be such a trendy person."

Although, in this day and age, even the civil affairs department has registered marriages between humans and virtual characters, more and more people fall in love in holographic games knowing that there will be no results, and there are even people who love deeply and realistically in games. An example of not marrying for life... But he really didn't expect that Shi Chang'an, a man like Shi Changan, who looks frivolous on the outside but is down-to-earth and down-to-earth, would try this interdimensional youthful lifestyle.

Thinking of this, Shen Xingyue looked up at Lin Zhengyan who was sitting opposite.

This child's age is on the blurred boundary between boys and men, with the youthfulness of a boy and the stability of a man, so his temperament is extremely painful.His facial features are indeed good. If there is no change in the pure scan data, he should be considered handsome.It's just that the indifferent demeanor around him is so sharp that it seems that his entire face is covered with ice.

I don't know how such a cold child really caught Shi Chang'an's eyes.

Shen Xingyue put away the fan in his hand, thinking: It seems that he can no longer tease Lin Zhengyan.

He and his brother dared to fight against Shi Chang'an in the game, start a team battle, and steal players, but they didn't have the courage to actually poach the role of Shi Chang'an.

This is determined by the food chain of their family friends in reality, he didn't even dare to remind Lin Zhengyan to pay attention to Shi Chang'an's little thoughts.

Shen Xingyue took a painful look at the boy sitting in front of him, and saw a trace of innocence and ignorance on Lin Zhengyan's expressionless face.

I thought to myself: Tsk, Shi Changan, this old cow eats tender grass, it is a bit too much.
