Xiao Ming looked at Cheng Ye for a long time and saw that the fat man's eating speed had slowed down, but he was still watching.
I don't know what he is looking at or what he is thinking.
His expression trembled slightly.
It seemed like he was fighting something.
The fat man lowered his head and carefully inquired about the three people in front of him.
The atmosphere felt strangely depressed.
In this case, he slowed down what he was eating, and even his voice became much more relaxed.
He stretched out his greasy paws and grabbed the grilled lamb chops on the dinner plate.
If you eat quietly it won't attract attention.
You have to eat this quickly or it will get cold.
He specifically ordered it to be toasted.
The crispy outer shell and juicy interior made his heart itch just thinking about it.
The fat man quickly grabbed the mutton chop and lowered his head as if to get under the table.
Xiao Ming looked over sideways and suddenly said: "Hey, Fatty, is the air under the table better?"
The fat man was extremely aggrieved. He raised his head with meat still stuffed in his mouth: "No, this is not..."
"Are you afraid that we will steal your meat?" Xiao Ming smiled.
Fatty meat is on the lips, it doesn't matter if you eat it, or if you don't eat it.
Interrupting his eating rhythm.
Cheng Ye thought the fat man was cute and couldn't bear to see his aggrieved look. He coaxed him like a child: "Eat, eat, and ignore him."
Only then did the fat man start chewing.
Xiao Ming did not continue to tease Fatty.
He sighed and leaned back: "Do you know what disappearing means?"
He stared at Cheng Ye.
It's straight and a bit sharp.
Cheng Ye didn't hesitate and naturally put ingredients into the small hot pot with clear soup in front of him: "I know, I have zero presence and can't be discovered."
The four small hotpots on the table were all emitting white smoke, steaming and looking quite warm.
Xiao Ming lowered his eyes and seemed very tired: "I followed you in this copy. I don't know why but I couldn't follow you the past few times."
"Every time you download a copy, I will try it. This time I didn't have any hope, but it turned out to be successful."
Cheng Ye's mouth twitched: "Why do you have to follow me?"
Xiao Ming's eyes were bright: "I don't know either. You give me a very dangerous feeling, so I am very interested."
Danger?
Am I a new player?
Are you interested then?
It's really a bit abnormal.
Cheng Ye was helpless: "What then?"
"After I entered this dungeon, I was not given any corresponding tasks. Generally speaking, if the idiot in the system doesn't find it troublesome, he will adjust the dungeon and assign me a role. If it is too troublesome, he will let me be a transparent person. This is random, and the dungeon I follow is not included in the official dungeon once a month." Xiao Ming said.
"This time, you are a transparent person." Sure enough, everyone thought the game system was stupid.
Xiao Ming nodded: "Don't blame the system. This dungeon does have more rules. The three of you form a system for each other. Adding me is really unnecessary."
It's a bit of Lin Daiyu's yin and yang eccentric literature.
Cheng Ye thought thoughtfully: "Then you found that your sense of presence began to decrease?"
Xiao Ming sighed: "Yes, I was there that night when you went to inspect the canteen."
"When I first arrived in the dungeon, everyone could still see me. Maybe it was because I was handsome and they would look at me frequently."

Is it really not because you are too weird?
Cheng Ye raised his eyebrows.
"But by the afternoon, almost no one looked at me anymore, as if I didn't exist."
"Your sense of presence has decreased." Cheng Ye said.
Just like those disappearing employees, the sense of presence is getting lower every day. It’s not that they don’t exist, they just won’t be discovered.
Just like the insignificant pebbles you step over on your way to work every day, just like you never remember whether your neighbor’s house has a doorbell, just like the color of the notebook on the desk next door, it exists, but is invisible and selected. Sexual neglect.
Employees with zero sense of presence are judged to have disappeared by the rules.
Even though I sit at my desk every day, I am no longer seen or discovered.
When people pass by them, their bodies will instinctively avoid them, but they cannot notice that they have taken a detour.
Because they lost their identities, they were unable to leave the office building.
Cheng Ye lowered his eyes. No wonder he couldn't find leftovers in the kitchen of the cafeteria. There were no leftovers. It was because the disappearing employees had taken care of him.
Everyone has experienced that the key was clearly placed here, but found somewhere else.
Things suddenly disappear and then reappear one day.
Experiences like this.
Maybe it was done by these people with zero sense of existence.
"At night, my presence is even lower. I need to use a loud voice to be noticed by others, and I have to make more exaggerated movements to get others to look back." Xiao Ming said calmly, and he looked at Cheng Ye again , with a calm tone: "At that moment, I decided to follow you."
"What a great opportunity this is. Even if I tease you, you won't notice. How interesting!"
"I watched you explore the cafeteria. It was clear that I was walking behind you, and you didn't feel anything. I made noises without restraint, but you didn't seem to hear me. I threw vegetables everywhere and didn't scare you. .”
"Then I stood far away and looked at you. You seemed to see me, but you seemed not to."
Cheng Ye recalled that that night he seemed to vaguely see a figure, but he wanted to be alone in the thick fog of the night.
"I see you."
Xiao Ming smiled: "Yes, we looked at each other. But you didn't care."
"Maybe you don't believe it, but the closest I got to you was when you were hiding in the electrical box."
"I was leaning against you so tightly that I could smell your scent, but you just felt that there were too many coils and didn't notice anything unusual."
Cheng Ye:......
"I found out that you have a lot of bad tastes."
Xiao Ming shrugged: "You should thank me for not killing you. A disappeared person can kill you in many ways, and you will only think it is an accident."
Cheng Ye: "Then I thank you."
Xiao Ming glanced at Wei Sheng'an, Tong Kong's mood changed, and he said with interest: "He can see me every time."
Wei Sheng'an said expressionlessly: "I didn't see you."
Xiao Ming: "I feel like you saw me."
"No." Wei Sheng An said: "I just think there is something there."
You are the thing.
Xiao Ming pursed his lips and did not curse: "Your perception is very keen."
Wei Sheng'an did not deny it: "Natural."
Xiao Ming's voice became very low: "You found me."
He discovered himself, not only that he felt like an extra person, but also that he truly felt himself.
It was like a man holding a wooden board drifting on the endless waves, and suddenly he was seen by someone standing on the shore far away.
He didn't look at the happy and playful crowd around him, but through the crowded crowd, he caught a glimpse of himself.
And, I keep looking at myself.
Wei Sheng'an still insisted: "No, I just think there is something extra."
Xiao Ming:……
"Can you see the other people who disappeared?" Cheng Ye broke their Mobius and asked suddenly.
Xiao Ming nodded: "Of course, we belong to the same type of people. Isn't this just your guess?"
He could see those lonely employees who were still working hard even though no one knew about them.
"Just confirming." It seems that the disappearing employees can indeed be solved by distributing employee cards.
Only the infected employees are left. When Xiao Ming creates an antidote, this dungeon will be over.
Xiao Ming chuckled, and seemed to have finished telling everything he wanted to say.
Rarely, he didn't go crazy and started eating the cooked food slowly.
"Delicious."
He sighed.
Wei Sheng'an, who had been silent all this time, suddenly asked: "Why are you suddenly telling us this?"
It's like a self-dissection.
"I know I can't blend in with you guys yet, so just think I've gone crazy after drinking some wine." Xiao Ming shook the goblet in his hand.
In fact, it’s just that I suddenly wanted to talk about it.
At this moment, Wei Sheng'an and Cheng Ye were stunned.
They looked at Xiao Ming, who was writing casually. There was no emotion on his face, only endless peace.
He knows everything.
He is so perceptive that it makes people feel distressed.
Wei Sheng'an's explanation just now did not dispel his doubts.
Instead, it made him trust his instincts even more.
He knew that Cheng Ye wanted to do something behind his back, and he knew that Wei Sheng'an was just trying to smooth things over.
It is also very clear that he is still an outsider to this team.
He never fit in with the team.
And he accepted this in just this short period of time.
There was no fuss or grievance.
Instead, he briefly talked about his state of mind after entering the dungeon.
Take the initiative to close the distance between each other.
No matter who you are, getting along takes time.
Feeling like old friends at first sight is just an ideal country.
Cheng Ye's eyes widened slightly. He never thought that Xiao Ming could be so sharp and normal.
But he didn't say anything and continued eating.
He said casually, as if very naturally: "As naughty as you are, it takes some time to blend in."
Xiao Ming smiled.
The fat man didn't notice these minutiae things at all. He was full of food and his mouth was full of oil.
After finishing the things on the table, I jumped around to pick something to eat.
After eating, Cheng Ye and the others said goodbye to Xiao Ming, saying they would be back in three days at the latest.
Xiao Ming was very meaningless: "It's okay if I don't come back."
Cheng Ye just smiled and said nothing more.
They took a speed car and headed straight to the city.
When arriving at the underground city, Tao Tiantian sent a message: "Employee card applications from other departments have also been submitted, and now I see that they have been approved."
Cheng Ye showed this text message to Fatty and Weisheng An.
"It seems like the first part of task three is basically solved." Wei Sheng'an said.
Cheng Ye nodded.
"Let's go find our daughter now."
The fat man blinked.
After hearing about his daughter, he naturally knew the whole story, so he asked with some confusion: "Then why are you carrying Xiao Ming on your back?"
"I'm not going behind his back, Cheng Ye just wants to figure out something." Wei Sheng said calmly.
The fat man seems to understand.
The car arrived at its destination and Cheng Ye opened the car door.
Fresh air hit his face, and then he noticed that wild flowers were growing on the roadside.
It was completely different from the desolate feeling before.
It's like a desert, and it's actually starting to get a little green.
Cheng Ye stared at the wild flowers for a long time and slowly smiled.
Everything is getting better slowly, which is great.
He raised his head and looked at the sky.
On the other side of the clouds, there is another world.
But they no longer have a monopoly on sunlight.
In the city above ground, there are flowers, grass, and sunshine.
"Let's go." It was obvious that Cheng Ye was in a good mood.
A few minutes later, the three of them arrived at their daughter's building.
Cheng Ye was a little nervous.
He stopped in front of the building.
He heard his heart pounding.
Wei Sheng'an didn't urge him and stopped about one meter away from Cheng Ye.
I caught the fat man who has no sense of boundaries.
Cheng Ye took a deep breath and walked towards the dark corridor.
No one opened the door the last time he came.
Not sure if my daughter is here.
However, he met his neighbor the last time he came here.
The neighbor held his child.
His child is very healthy.
He hesitated at that time because it was in his memory.
The neighbor's child's legs are atrophied.
Just like a dead tree, it will break if you bend it lightly.
So the neighbor could only keep holding him.
But at that time, he saw with his own eyes that the neighbor's child's legs were healthy.
The child's face is filled with a happy and bright smile.
Innocent and carefree.
It was as if no pain had ever existed.
At that moment, Cheng Ye thought of two possibilities.
One, this child is not the same child as the child I saw before.
The neighbor has two children.
Second, this child is the child I saw before.
However, he was cured.
If it is the second type, then...
Cheng Ye's eyes were fixed on the door in front of him.
Behind the door, there is hope and unknown.
It was a place he couldn't wait to break into.
If the neighbor's child is really cured, what about the daughter?
Can she also run and wave her hands, just like any normal child, can run and jump freely?
Cheng Ye didn't know.
His heart was like a scurrying rabbit, trying to jump out of his chest.
He went to the door.
Time seems to have pressed the slow-down button.
He raised his hand.
Lifted in mid-air.
Behind them, Wei Sheng'an and Fatty both tacitly agreed not to say a word and remained silent.
winter.
winter.
winter.
Cheng Ye knocked on the door.
It's already past twelve o'clock at night.
Most people have fallen into a deep sleep.
The knock on the door seemed particularly abrupt, and there was a faint echo in the corridor.
No one opened the door.
Cheng Ye's face darkened, and he knocked on the door again.
This time, there was a voice from inside the door.
It was the sound of slippers walking across the floor.
Cheng Ye's penis was slightly enlarged, and his hands couldn't help but become stiffer.
The heart beats harder.
The footsteps stopped.
It was the sound of a chair being pulled.
slippers.
Step on the chair.
The thin sound seemed to be full of hope.
The next second, the door opened.
Squeak, squeak, squeak.
The bright white light dragged out a long shadow on the ground.
