This is a subconscious action that people will take when they are eager to verify a piece of information.

Shen Liuchen put his fingers across the table. Unlike Yuan Chengjie’s shocked expression, his expression was very flat.

With this expression like the Mount Tai that does not change its color all year round, Yuan Chengjie had been convinced by half.

What’s more, in Yuan Chengjie’s opinion, it is unnecessary for people like Shen Liuchen to lie to him.

“This does not conform to the law of development of things.” Yuan Chengjie said: “In the game world, an NPC can only move back and forth between two points and do infinitely repetitive things because it has been programmed. Even if it has been programmed to a higher level and it can go to many places to do different work, its trajectory is fixed anyway.”

Shen Liuchen looked at him lightly, neither interrupting his thinking nor participating in his speech.

It’s just that he is also thinking about it in his heart.

If Song Jinxi did not appear, then he would only follow the original trajectory and slowly become a gloomy person.

But now, because of the appearance of Song Jinxi, there is a ray of sunshine in his life, and the crazy idea of ‘let all mankind sink with him’ has gradually disappeared.

Instead, it is the extravagant hope to live with her forever now.

Why is it called extravagant hope?

Because Song Jinxi’s identity is still unclear now.

If his identity is really as he imagined, then, as a ‘lowly programmed NPC’, how can he be with a ‘real player’?

He is deep in thought, and so is Yuan Chengjie.

The more Yuan Chengjie thought about it, the more absurd he felt. He even couldn’t help getting up and pacing back and forth in front of the desk.

As he walked, he muttered to himself in a low voice.

Then he couldn’t help but stretch out his hand to rub his own head.

He walked around several times and couldn’t help but glance at Shen Liuchen quietly. Seeing that Shen Liuchen seemed to be thinking deeply, he asked tentatively: “Is the news true?”

“My time is very precious, Mr. Yuan.” Shen Liuchen said indifferently: “I won’t interrupt your research for the sake of groundless news.”

Shen Liuchen didn’t speak any further.

Because these two sentences he said are enough to persuade Yuan Chengjie.

Over the years, he has worked hard in the business world and has also created a lot of images for himself. For example, he never doubted the people who worked for him, never used the people he doubted, and he has never listened to others easily too.

Once a person works under him, the person will get all the trust he can give. Once a person is suspected by him, and if the suspicion is true, there will never be a chance for the person to turn over again.

And what was said from his mouth, as long as it came out of his mouth, there was basically no need to doubt it.

Standing at a position as high as him, there is no need for him to lie. Even if the business world is not averse to deception, almost no one has the qualification for him to tell a lie.

So Yuan Chengjie believed in him very much because of his attitude.

This is also the reason why Shen Liuchen dared to call Yuan Chengjie because of his groundless and whimsical speculation.

Yuan Chengjie no longer had any doubts, but he still stuck his chin and lowered his head again, and walked several rounds again.

“Players send their consciousness into the game through virtual reality technology, and connect with the body tailored for them in the game to become a virtual and real person. When they come into contact with NPCs, the NPCs seem to be conscious and can act independently, but they are actually just a piece of code, and the options are completely set.” Yuan Chengjie said: “If you want to change the fate of NPC through players’ contact with NPC, there must be a premise, that is——the NPC’s ending is actually open-ended.”
