Chapter 46: Imaginary Time (Part )

Ke Yinzhi glanced at Ke Xiaomo's profile and whispered, "Children are really imaginative, aren't they?"

As Bai Ziling's imaginary scene was finished, it was finally Ke Mingye's turn to put on the helmet, and everyone in the theater cast their eyes on him.

"Are you coming?"

Ke Mingye in the toilet murmured softly and gave orders in his mind, causing the trickster puppet to put the helmet on its head, look forward with eyes open for a while, and then close his eyes at the instruction of the staff.

"Empty your mind and don't think about anything." Ke Mingye continued to give orders.

The trickster puppet did as he was told, and the other people in the theater looked at the giant screen, only to see that the picture displayed on the giant screen was empty, almost blank.

"Brother, are you too nervous?" Bai Zini sat next to the doll and asked him.

Ke Yinzhi watched this scene and interrupted, "If you can't think of anything, how about thinking about the keywords I just mentioned?"

He paused, and repeated to the trickster puppet: "If you talk about 'player', what do you imagine?"

Cold sweat ran down Ke Mingye's forehead, but a smile appeared on his lips. He thought to himself, you are still giving me psychological hints. The thing sitting in the theater is not a human being at all, how could it be influenced by you?

As he thought about it, he gave the puppet an order in his mind: "Imagine that you are playing a shooting game on the screen, CSGO will do, and you are holding a gun and shooting the enemy in the head."

As the order was given, Ke Mingye's thoughts gradually appeared on the giant screen of Theater No. 47: he was sitting in front of the computer, playing a shooting game from a first-person perspective, holding an Ak- in his hand, aiming the mouse at the head of the enemy that popped out from the corner, and was about to shoot, when the whole picture froze here.

"Oh my god, it's so effective?"

The puppet took off its helmet, looked up at the giant screen in the theater, and spoke in a surprised tone.

Bai Zini held her forehead and sighed, and couldn't help but said contemptuously: "Brother, you also imagine yourself playing games when you play with a helmet, your Internet addiction is too serious!"

Ke Yongzhu curled his lips and added insult to injury, "You said I have no imagination, but he has even less. He is indeed the kind of person who sneaks out to play games in the middle of a movie. Games are all he can think about."

Ke Xiaomo and Ke Yinzhi looked at the huge screen in the theater. They remained silent and turned their heads to look at each other.

"It's your turn, second brother!" Bai Zini took the brain imaging helmet from Ke Mingye and ran to Ke Xiaomo's side.

"No, I won't play."

Ke Xiaomo responded. His mind was now filled with the picture that Bai Ziling had imagined, the picture of the young dragon of disaster squatting in the shadow.

"Ah? You really don't want to play? What a killjoy." Baizini looked at him eagerly.

"If you still want to play, just continue playing. I'll just watch." Ke Xiaomo said.

"Okay." Ke Yinzhi said, "Then have the kids had enough of the experience? If you want to save the video, please leave your WeChat and I will send it to you later on my phone."

"Wait a minute, I haven't had enough fun yet." Bai Zini turned around and asked a staff member behind her, "Didn't you say there is another function?"

The staff member explained: "You mean the function that converts your vision into images? When you put on the helmet just now, the image was automatically recorded."

"Yes, that's it! Let me see what this 'brain camera' takes." Baizini said curiously.

Hearing this, the staff member pressed a button on their mobile phone, and then more than a dozen photos appeared on the giant screen in the theater. These were the scenes they saw with their own eyes after putting on the helmets.

Ke Yinzhi stared at the screen quietly, flipping through the photos one after another.

But in these photos, there is no scene that contains the "player icon", and the scene in every photo is very normal - that is to say, what everyone sees is normal, and what no one sees has been processed by the "game system".

Ke Yinzhi slowly approached Ke Xiaomo and whispered, "It has been confirmed. Fortunately, at least for the time being, none of these little guys have been replaced by the 'players'."

"Akino too?"

"Yes, although you said he is a bit strange, judging from the results, his visual image does not show the characteristics of the player, otherwise there should be a bunch of strange icons appearing."

Ke Xiaomo also looked away from the screen: "That's good, I was just too suspicious."

"Brother, you look a little strange from the beginning." Ke Yinzhi paused and asked, "Is it related to the picture that Zi Ling came up with?"

"Yes..." Ke Xiaomo hesitated for two seconds and said in a low voice, "That is the juvenile form of the Disaster Dragon. I have seen it once before, so I am very sure of its physical signs."

"You mean... Zi Ling has seen the Dragon of Disaster?" Ke Yinzhi raised his eyebrows.

Ke Xiaomo nodded: "That's right, but I don't know when. She has seen the Dragon of Disaster at least once, so she can outline its details in her mind so carefully." Ke Yinzhi looked at him, stretched out his hand and put it on his shoulder.

He thought and said slowly, "Don't worry, maybe the Disaster Dragon targeted her one day before, but she luckily ran away... Anyway, it's good that she's okay. The Shadow Ninja Sect has already started a search for the Disaster Dragon in this city, and there will be results in a few days."

He shrugged, "Besides, you and I will be at home during the summer vacation, so she'll be safe."

"I hope so." Ke Xiaomo whispered, his eyes moving, "I am such a bad second brother that I didn't even know when my sister met the dragon of disaster... I have been thinking since just now, what if she was eaten by that dragon? I may never be able to forgive myself for the rest of my life."

"Once the dragon dies, she won't be in danger." Ke Yinzhi said calmly, "Everyone will be fine, don't think too much."

Ke Xiaomo was silent for a long time: "Who is the one who hasn't been confirmed yet?"

"Qiu Wu, she left the cinema early." Ke Yinzhi said expressionlessly, "So there is a slight possibility that she may have been replaced by a 'player'."

He paused. "Of course, this is just a possibility. None of us want to see our family encounter this kind of thing, right?"

"What about your parents?" Ke Xiaomo asked again.

"According to the information provided by the two players, players can only possess ordinary humans between the ages of 10 and 35. My parents are older than this age range, so we can confirm that they are not in danger of being possessed by players, and there is no need for them to wear brain imaging helmets."

Ke Xiaomo hesitated for a moment and said, "So, Qiu Wu is the only one left at home?"

"Yes, I will confirm it. You should have a good rest." Ke Yinzhi said with a smile, "Regain your energy and wait for the information from the Ninja Clan. If I am free one day when you find it, I might come to help."

"No need. The Ninja Clan and the Dragon of Disaster are enemies for generations. Killing them is our generational mission. According to the rules of the Ninja Clan, outsiders are not allowed to interfere."

Ke Yinzhi chuckled and asked teasingly, "So, am I already an 'outsider'?"

"No." Ke Xiaomo shook his head, "But this matter is different, brother, I hope you can understand."

"I understand what you mean." Ke Yinzhi smiled and patted his shoulder, then looked at the people in the theater, "I'm going to look for Qiu Wu first, you take these little guys home."

"Well, you should be careful too." Ke Xiaomo paused, "Also, if Qiu Wu is really a player..."

Ke Yinzhi interrupted him and said, "If any bug dares to get into our home and hurt our family, I will make them pay a heavy price."

He spoke calmly, as if stating a fact.

Ke Xiaomo was silent for a while: "I have no objection, but you must let me confirm it first before you take action."

"We'll talk about it then... I'm leaving now."

Ke Yinzhi whispered, took his right hand away from his shoulder, and signaled the two staff members with his eyes. They took the brain imaging helmet back from the child and followed him out of the theater.

Soon, Ke Mingye came over and touched Ke Xiaomo with his hand: "Let's go, second brother, what are you doing standing here?"

"It's okay, let's go." Ke Xiaomo said, looking away from Bai Ziling. As soon as they walked out of the theater, Ke Mingye said, "I'm going to the bathroom, wait for me."

Ke Yongzhu glanced at him and said, "Do you have to go to the toilet so many times to watch a movie? Lazy people poop and pee a lot. Don't forget to bring toilet paper again."

Bai Ziling also said, "That's right."

"Two little brats are so talkative."

The trickster doll said this unhappily while rubbing the hair of the two little brats hard, then walked into the toilet at the corner, opened the door of the last cubicle while no one was paying attention, and walked in.

"Fortunately, I managed to get away with it..."

Sitting on the toilet, Ke Mingye closed the door of the cubicle and breathed a sigh of relief. He ordered the puppet to take off his clothes and shoes, and then put them on himself.

"Just squat here and lock the door after I leave."

After saying that, Ke Mingye put his hands in his coat pockets and slowly walked out of the cubicle. Only a gray figure was left squatting inside, silently watching his back leave, and then closed the cubicle door.

Half an hour later.

As Ke Mingye and others left the Yandai Cinema, the gray figure opened the toilet window and climbed out.

It found a trash can in the alley outside the movie city, stuffed its body into it, and then exploded completely, turning into flames that engulfed everything around it.
