Chapter 705 Trying to Integrate
On the side of the road, in a small shop, young patrol officer Suetaki and Li Qi looked at each other.
About ten minutes have passed since we just had dinner.
After talking carefully with Li Qi for a while, the patrol officer's face was full of surprise.
He discovered that the mentally ill homeless man in front of him actually had extraordinary knowledge and cognition, and his speech was clear and coherent. He did not appear to be mentally ill.
Alone...he still felt that this was a mental illness, nothing else, just because of the 'purpose' that the other party kept repeating.
He has always said that he came out to integrate into society.
This gave Suetaki a headache. This person was very organized in everything he said and did, and had a gentle temperament, but he always made surprising remarks and said some strange things.
The two men were sitting opposite each other, asking questions and answering questions.
"Oh, forget it, let's just treat you as unlucky today. Go back and check first. I'll verify your identity. After all, you don't have any equipment on you, and I can't access your data. I can only go back and draw blood for blood comparison. ." Suotaki said.
"After the blood comparison, you can reissue my identity certificate, right?" Li Qi asked.
"Well, after all, your documents have been lost and your equipment is gone. By the way, are you really not robbed?" Suetaki asked unwillingly.
Li Qize said: "Of course not, I said, I just came out to try to blend in -"
At this point, he was interrupted by Suetaki. The patrol officer sighed: "Okay, no need to repeat it. I know what challenge you are playing. Are you a host of challenge content? Or something? Rich man’s contract, so some kind of extreme survival?”
"Of course not. As you can see, without equipment and no one else recording, the live broadcast can't be broadcast, right?" Li Qi said with a smile.
"Then you really just want to challenge yourself?" Suetaki couldn't believe it?
"First of all, I am not challenging myself. Secondly, I don't need to challenge myself. I just want to integrate into society, interact with other people, and get used to your pace. I have said this four times, right? Patrol Officer Suetaki , you can completely believe my words, and I am not a homeless person... Well, although I am indeed unemployed, I am not a homeless person. I have a place to live, I just need to establish some identity." Li Qi held out a finger and solemnly said. reiterate.
However, he could easily see that the other party did not believe it.
Even if he doesn't really need to know rhyme to read superficial thoughts, he can judge just by looking at his expression.
"Okay, okay, I understand. After dinner, let's go to the bureau to verify your identity first and then reissue your identity device. By the way, you said you have a place to live, but do you have an income? ?" Suotaki asked.
"Well, we don't have it yet, so we have to owe this meal, but don't worry, I will pay you back, and I can write you a note." Li Qi said, suddenly there was a pen and paper in his hand, Then he wrote an IOU seriously and handed it to Suetaki.
"...Forget it, just treat it as my invitation. Also, this kind of thing has no legal effect now. It must be connected to the notary office through the device to be effective." Suetaki took the IOU and was both laughing and crying.
"This works for me." Li Qi said to him seriously.
Suetaki originally wanted to laugh, but just looked at the other party's eyes, and he suddenly had the illusion that... the other party was not joking.
By some strange coincidence, he put the note away: "That's it, the food has been eaten, we'd better go and verify your identity first."
"Okay, let's go." Li Qi stood up and followed the other person away.
Of course he can make money immediately, but... Li Qi doesn't want to destroy the financial system of this world. Since money needs to be integrated into society, he should earn it slowly after integrating into society.
Suetaki is a very enthusiastic and kind-hearted young man. He also introduced various things to Li Qi along the way. When he went to that place, he drew blood first and then took it to the laboratory. During this period, he kept asking if Li Qi had any family members. .
Li Qi didn't lie either. He didn't say anything that was hard to say. What he said was basically the truth, but to Suotaki it sounded a bit like he was being arrogant.
Li Qi said that he has a wife and children and a place to live, but his children are far away now and his wife does not want to come out and integrate into society with him.
When asked if Li Qi had a job, Li Qi of course said directly that he didn't, but he repeatedly reiterated that he would be able to find a job very quickly based on his ability.
Well, Suetaki's pity look made Li Qi a little funny, but he didn't say anything. Instead, he seriously simulated his own blood and created a fake blood that they could analyze.
If it were true fourth-grade blood, it would be difficult for them to understand.
Soon, Suetaki completed the formalities and then hung Li Qi's identity and simple verification device on him.
After the inspection was completed and the confirmation was effective, he checked Li Qi's specific identity.
Hmm... He is indeed a legal citizen, and his resume is very clean. It shows that... this person has had no study or work experience since he was born.
In other words, this person has never studied or worked since he was a child, so how did he survive?
He looked at Li Qi in surprise. Is this person... really out of touch with society?
So, when he said he wanted to integrate into society, was he serious?
As for him, he is currently immersed in the virtual reality scene. He can clearly feel that the clothes on his body, after being connected to the device, quickly show some special feelings.
Hmm... It feels like the terminal of Tang Dynasty, but it's a bit far behind, because the terminal has no delay, no matter how much data is there, it arrives instantly, the information is public, and you don't even need to download it. No matter how big the file is, you can read it instantly. configuration.
But this obviously doesn't work. The information transmission speed of this is seriously limited by the grade of the magic weapon. The information processing speed of these magic weapons is not as fast as Li Qi's brain. Li Qi can do the work for these servers even if he takes a nap.
But no matter what, it was the first time for him to experience the true civilization of this world.
However, he has too few plug-ins on his body. If you look at other people on the road, there are dozens or hundreds of plug-ins on them. If they are combat types, such as Suetaki in front of them, they must have five or six hundred devices on them. Behind them There are also expansion packs to facilitate their all-terrain operations.
Li Qi now only has the most basic identity equipment. In addition to being able to access virtual reality, the only other function is to confirm his identity.
"Okay, now that we're done, go ahead and do your best." Suetaki greeted Li Qi and then sent him out the door.
Suetaki did not continue to chase Li Qi and ask questions. After all, he also had to work, go to work, and have food to eat. With so many things, it was impossible for him to hang around Li Qi.
After sending Li Qi away, Suetaki started his daily work. Of course, there was no work and he had to get off work.
He worked the night shift yesterday, so he could rest for a whole day and go to work the morning after tomorrow. In fact, he had already got off work, but he stayed a little longer just for Li Qi to finish his things before leaving.
"Director, I'll leave first." Suetaki said hello to the leader, and then embarked on the journey home after working the night shift all day.
He took off his uniform, put the equipment that was enough to blow up a ninth-level world back into the warehouse, got back his own equipment, put on his clothes again, and then walked to the public transportation tram stop honestly.
After a while, the tram came. He walked into it and squeezed in with the people around him who had just gone to work. There was no difference at all. They were all just an ordinary member.
After waiting in the car for a while, I played a game in the virtual world in my head. I felt tired, so I simply turned it off and stopped playing. It was better to take a rest.
Back home, Suetaki opened the door. He had just eaten breakfast with Li Qi, so he shouldn't eat it now.
Clean up the trash in the room and take it outside. Automatic facilities will collect it later.
However, he saw that a new family had just moved in from his neighbor's house, and it seemed that he didn't understand the equipment of this building yet. Also, the builder of this building customized the equipment, which was different from most common equipment.
Although once you get used to it, it's almost enough.
However, he still took the initiative to teach the other party how to use it, how to command the automatic facilities, and what the default facilities here were, and helped the other party carry luggage and so on.
After receiving the other party's thanks, Suetaki just waved his hand and said it was okay.
He has to do a lot of things like Li Qi and neighbors every time, and his colleagues say he is too busy.
However, he felt that he should do what he could, without delaying anything.
When I got home, I first reported that my family was safe, and chatted with my parents and my younger brother who was still in school for a while. He came to this big city alone. Fortunately, he had a good job and the pay was quite generous. Being able to send some help to his family is enough for him to gain a foothold in this city.
After chatting for a while, sleepiness gradually came over his eyelids. He also turned off the communication and started to catch up on his sleep.
Even if he can enter the seventh level of combat power with magic weapons, he is essentially only a ninth level, and this ninth level is achieved by relying on prosthetic bodies and body modifications.
In essence, his spirit is still that of an inferior mortal.
In the past, during the war between the Forward Alliance and other worlds, the other party had used mental-affecting methods, causing the Alliance to suffer huge losses.
But fortunately, an anti-interference plug-in was developed later, which can resist the weird brainwashing and even body-stealing abilities of other worlds. Now there is no need to worry about this.
Suetaki gradually fell asleep thinking about some things that were not there.
When he got up, it was already past midday, the sun was shining brightly, and he had slept for about five hours.
It was enough. He would still sleep at night anyway. He was actually not used to staying up late, but he had no choice but to work.
After getting up and washing up, he was going to go out for a walk, buy some food for the evening, and use his free time to train his work skills in virtual reality.
He graduated from school with nearly perfect scores and was very good at simulated battles. However, because of the peace in these years, he had not experienced actual battles. Although he was equipped with seventh-grade equipment, it was never used in practice. Pass.
Well...peace is a good thing after all. As a kind and cheerful young man, he doesn't want anything bad to happen. However, the feeling that this skill has no use is quite subtle.
With these thoughts in his mind, he walked out into the street.
Why does it seem like I saw an acquaintance?
While walking on the road, Suotaki saw the unemployed vagrant named Li Qi who he had sent away in the morning on the street again.
What is surprising is that this Li Qi is surrounded by several people with top-level equipment, and these top-level equipment all come from those large forces.
In the Forward Alliance, the importance of equipment is obvious. For people, it is natural to choose excellent accessories to insert on one's body. A poor accessory is called "ragged clothes", and a top accessory is called "clothing". Gorgeous', this is the aesthetics of this world.
Excellent hardware will attract the envy of everyone.
And the beggar refugee in the morning didn't have any accessories on his body. It was only the afternoon and he was surrounded by so many people? Moreover, the accessories on his body have been replaced very well now.
what happened? Is this man some kind of rich boy? No more pretending now, let’s show off?
This surprised Suotaki, so he took the initiative to lean over there.
But before he got there, he saw those people who seemed to have broken down the conversation with Li Qi and left dejectedly. Suotaki also heard that when they were chatting, he felt that it was a pity that they had missed some talent.
Waiting until he walked in front of Li Qi, he saw the current Li Qi, dressed in mid-to-high-end or above equipment, with excellent aesthetics, and the flashing lights were a perfect projection.
It's just... these devices are all external devices, which is a bit strange.
External devices are for external use, while internal devices can directly act on the nervous system, which is more intuitive. Therefore, internal devices are generally more expensive, and most people will directly replace their organs with internal ones. Replacement of connected equipment, such as prosthetic eyes, is usually done after adulthood and after the body is finalized.
And the man named Li Qi in front of me...
Wait, he didn't have a single device on his body that morning, and now he's wearing an external device.
he? Couldn't he be a natural person?
In this day and age, do complete natural humans still exist?
"Hey, Brother Suetong, we meet again, what a coincidence?" Li Qi waved his hand and greeted Suetong with a smile on his face.
Suetaki walked over in astonishment: "Those people just now... and the equipment you have now, by the way, they are all external. Don't you have internal ones?"
"Oh, this, I'm not used to body modification, the external one is enough. By the way, have you had dinner? I'll treat you, I just made some money at noon." Li Qi said.
"Wait, it's only a few hours, how did you earn it?" Suotaki asked.
