Chapter 71

Song Juyao was sent back to her cell, which was a small cell with a whole glass wall facing the corridor. Through this glass, she could see a small bed, a table and chair inside, and a Tiny bathroom.

After the two episodes, the attitude of the prison guards towards her changed significantly. When they passed her cell, they would stare at her with different and complicated eyes. Some people asked her if she wanted to read and brought some books for her.

She got some special treatment, such as not having to go to the cafeteria to eat with other prisoners. This should be a reward given to the cash cow by some nobles.

The group of prisoners in the prison is graded. Murderers even other criminals will look sideways, and rapists are a rare species among female criminals, and her charges are murder and attempted rape. Therefore, wherever she went, she was obviously a woman, but she always had the kind of evil eyes, and she didn’t have a strong physique or fierce strength to fight against.

So in her previous life, when she was transferred from the detention center to the prison, she signed the contract for the trial show the day after she ate in the cafeteria. Because she knew that if she didn’t, she would definitely die here and be tortured, she was not reconciled.

The prison guard brought her lunch. Song Juyao was no longer like in her previous life. She couldn’t eat because of the unspeakable torment she suffered. She chewed the food seriously. She has a stomach problem, so she must take care of her stomach. At the same time, she also eats every grain of rice.

She needs a healthy body, she needs to store enough energy, she needs to be strong, and one day, she will definitely defeat her enemies.

She ate and ate, paused, and turned her head to look outside.

Outside the glass wall, a tall and stern man in a suit and leather shoes was standing there.

Her former classmate, Huo Hai’s half-brother, Huo Sen.

After the first period, he came once, and this time he came again.

Song Juyao smiled coldly at him: “Mr. Huo, you are here again.”

Looking at her smile, Huo Sen couldn’t help but think of the kind of smile she showed to Jiang Baiqi in the virtual world, which was sincere and sweet. The corners of the mouth were pressed down, and the face became more and more cold.

“I’ll give you another chance. Give up participating in the next trial show, and I’ll let you out of prison in five years.” Huo Sen said coldly.

“Thank you for your ‘magnanimity,’ but my answer will not change.”

“With your wisdom, you shouldn’t have said such a stupid thing.” Huo Sen said angrily: “I didn’t say it bluntly last time, but you should be able to think of it. Don’t you really think that the trial show The major shareholders will always protect you, right?”

Xingmeng Group is controlled by nobles. “Justice Trial” is the most profitable project of Xingmeng DreamWorks. The shareholders really like Song Juyao. Who doesn’t like a cash cow? She earned more for them than the previous judges. How many tickets for redress were sold? In order to let the cash cow continue to make money for them, they will indeed protect her. Anyone who dares to hurt her is going against them, and the Huo family dare not provoke her.

However, this is not something that will continue forever.

The main shareholders behind the trial show are nobles. These major shareholders have an ambiguous relationship with the government, so they can cooperate with the government, so that prisoners can get a commutation or retrial through a reality show.

Song Juyao’s case involved a lot of things. The Huo family, the judges bought by Yuan Manzhi and the police investigators, etc., they would not want to see Song Juyao come back, because if the king’s review team took action, they would all be involved. will suffer. If these people seek help from the major shareholder, or even happen to be relatives of the major shareholder, Song Juyao’s fate may not be good.

“They protect you now and let you go, just because they don’t take you seriously. In their eyes, you are just a tool to make money, a negligible person who can be controlled at any time. After all, it’s only the second period, isn’t it? Huo Sen said: “You are in other people’s games, and you actually think that others will abide by the rules of the game. Isn’t it too naive?”

They have ten thousand ways and ten thousand reasons to make Song Juyao fail, or make her just their money-making tool forever.

Song Juyao just looked at Huo Sen without speaking.

Huo Sen held out his hand to her: “Quit this game, I will let you out of prison in five years. Even if you get 50 million votes and choose to commute your sentence, it is impossible to reduce your sentence from no sentence to five years. If you don’t choose to directly Commutation of sentence, but a retrial by the court, you know what the result will be. It is even more wishful thinking if you want the king’s review team to take action. You will never get 100 million votes. There is no more cost-effective business than this , I’m the only one who can help you.”

Song Juyao responded with a smile and gave him a middle finger.

Huo Sen’s face was livid.

“Okay, I’ll wait for the day you beg me!” Huo Sen sneered stiffly, and left angrily, shaking his sleeves, feeling that Song Juyao really didn’t know good from bad, if it wasn’t because he liked her, he wouldn’t Give her two chances, he has never seen such a stupid woman!

Song Juyao turned back, picked up the chopsticks and continued to eat the unfinished dishes, lowered her eyes, the surveillance head in the upper right corner of the cell could not see the dark cold light in her eyes.

She never expected that others would abide by the rules of the game. The major shareholders of the nobles and the officials bought by Yuan Manzhi didn’t take her seriously. They always felt that there were many opportunities to crush her to death, which was exactly what she wanted. He didn’t take her seriously, so he smiled and watched her growing wings but didn’t know the danger. When they finally felt out of control, it was not certain who made the rules of the game.

She used the virtual world to lay her pawns step by step in the real world, but they only saw her helpless side in the real world, at the mercy of others.

…

The Judgment Show program group counted the remaining NPCs in the virtual world, and found that about one million NPCs had been lost. They were relieved and nervous.

It is a relief that one million NPCs have been recycled, which will not affect the subsequent programs. Fortunately, when Jiang Baiqi announced it to the world, it has reached the final stage, allowing people in the virtual world to accept that “the world is not real. It’s not real” The time for this kind of absurd truth is very short, and the third issue can still proceed normally.

What is tense is that the loss of one million NPCs, regardless of the overall base, is really huge, and it will definitely make major shareholders unhappy, and they don’t know if they will lose their jobs.

After the data was reported, as expected, Qin Wei was fired as the chief director. Fortunately, only Qin Wei was fired, and the others, whether they were the assistant directors or other staff members, were retained.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

The second issue is as exciting as the first issue, and the splash it caused was bigger than the first issue. It has become a hot search abroad. Song Juyao’s fan group has continued to grow, but another voice has never been lacking.

Fans of online shows, Song Juyao black fans, and passers-by who didn’t watch the live broadcast at all, didn’t understand the cause and effect, and only took things out of context, were yelling at the show crew, thinking that the show crew was disqualified to make a murderer a murderer. The idol of so many people.

Therefore, as soon as the news that the chief director will be replaced is announced, netizens are extremely happy.

[He should have been fired a long time ago, I have never seen such a useless person, with so many seasons of “Justice Trial”, so many directors, he is the only one being played around by the judges! 】

【Honestly speaking, Song Juyao is different from the other judges. If you were any other director, you might not be able to do anything to her】

[I didn’t watch the live broadcast, but as a mother, seeing my child fall in love with a murderer and spend so much money on petitions for grievances, I really want to kill people. This is not the three views that affect children ? ! 】

[Song Juyao is so popular, the program team has to bear the greatest responsibility]

[It’s so funny to you, is it so difficult to admit that others are good? I see that the program group set up obstacles for Song Juyao. She resolved them one by one with her excellence and kindness. 】

[Didn’t watch the live broadcast to say a fart, hearsay, listening to the wind is rain, your child can buy a grievance ticket, it proves that he has reached the age of 20, has his own three views, and is treated like a three-year-old by a mother like you , your child is pitiful enough]

[Although she murdered, broke the law, and was sentenced to life by the court, she is a good girl, pure and kind [vomit]]

[Heizi is always blind, even if the evidence of her excellence and kindness is already in front of her eyes, she can still be regarded as not seeing it]

The members of the Tianhuiliang forum were fighting on the Internet while chatting about the replacement of the chief director in the forum. Most of them were very happy. Qin Wei was really disgusting. What kind of temporary real-life NPC was let in to make trouble in the first issue? Even the Prime Minister dared to wear it, it was a no-brainer.

[Changing the director is not necessarily a good thing, we at least understand Tan Wei’s behavior patterns, he is also conceited and stupid enough, we can find a way to manipulate him like he did after the end of the first issue, if we change to a new one, we have no way to start]

[Rely on! ! God! Shouldn’t Qin Wei be changed? ]

[Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah! ]

At this time, the creator Y spoke up again.

[Whether they change the chief director or not, their malice towards the goddess will not change. We just need to remember, trust her, support her, and always stand by her side]

As soon as Y made a sound, the members responded one after another.

[Yes, trust her! ]

[Trust her! ]

[I will fight to the end for her, even in blood, until she finally reaches the dawn]

[…]

…

Whether or not the chief director is changed, the nature of this variety show will not change, nor will the malice towards Song Juyao. What they want is to force her to show her ugly side and make the audience shout that a murderer is a murderer .

Song Juyao’s fingers lightly slid across this love novel featuring a king and a commoner girl, her eyes were far away, as if she had passed through the paper and arrived at a distant place.

When she died in her previous life, the chief director was still Tan Wei, so it was considered dead by his hands. She and him were old acquaintances, and it seemed that it would be more beneficial for her to let him continue to be the director. It’s full of fat and stupidly pompous. She knows him.

But how much difference does it make who is the director? The world background of each issue has already been prepared, and it will not change. At most, what will change is her personal script, and the purpose of the program will not change, so it doesn’t matter if you change the director or not.

The reason for letting people in the virtual world know the truth of the world is not only to leave an explosive ending as a hook, so that people can’t wait to watch the next episode and never forget the third issue.

Many people don’t know the rules set by the king for the virtual world of the trial show, but when Song Juyao was tutoring Huo Hai, in order for her to chat with him, he took the initiative to say a lot of things that ordinary people don’t know.

So many NPCs know the truth of the world and are recovered by the main system. What will happen to the palace?

…

royal palace. Cyber ​​Security Department.

Although the management of the virtual world is handed over to the government, if the king wants to regain control, it will be a breeze, because the host of the virtual world system is in the palace, and the system is maintained and monitored by the palace network security department.

Seeing K come back, colleagues said: “There is no BUG, ​​right?”

K nodded. He was rushed by Qin Wei to go to DreamWorks to check if there was a bug in the system.

“Let me just say, the main system didn’t prompt at all, how could there be a BUG. What’s going on?”

“The people who were judged this season were too powerful. They thought it was a bug.” K said. Just remembering that an NPC was so awesome, he couldn’t help being curious, he took out a cigarette from the cigarette case and drank it, “There is a very powerful NPC standing on the side of the judge, who made almost It can kill things in the real world, I suspect that he can even break through the protection mechanism of the virtual world system for real people’s spiritual bodies, and kill people in the virtual world, I kind of want to apply to the minister for permission to see whose clone he is.”

“Is it so powerful?” Everyone was shocked, they were all busy working in the palace, who would dare to desert to watch some trial show, let alone they all knew that the king didn’t like this show.

“Um.”

“Could it be a copy of a big boss in the scientific research department?”

Just as he was talking, he suddenly received a message that the main system had recovered one million NPCs.

? ? ? ?

What? ? ?

The programmers of the network security department were dumbfounded. Over the years, the main system has recovered one or two NPCs who have discovered the truth of the world every day, but this is the first time such a large-scale recovery has occurred.

When they checked, they found that they all came back from the trial show.

K said: “It’s the clone I just mentioned, he exposed the truth of the world on the other side of the trial show.”

“…Grass.”

“It makes me really want to watch that show.”

“Anyway, let’s report to the minister first, I have to work overtime these days.”

It was the first time that such a large-scale recycling occurred, and the minister was shocked. At the same time, all departments in the palace began to get busy. One million is really not a small number.

The steps of NPC recovery are divided into several steps. First, after confirming who the NPC is, the data will be transmitted into a chip, then contact the owner, confirm the location, and finally hand it over to the robot courier company for the courier to deliver In the past, after confirming that the imperial ID card chip in the head of the master was consistent with the information, it was handed over to the master, and it was over.

Because of the amount of one million, the palace became a little bit hectic, but there was no such a little hecticness in the huge palace, not to mention that these departments were all outside the main hall, and would never intrude into the eyes of the king.

But the internal affairs officer had an ugly look on his face, and hurried over, “You guys, why are you so noisy?!”

The internal affairs officer is responsible for the internal affairs of the main hall, and is the person closest to the king, equivalent to the chief steward. As soon as he came, he asked angry questions, which made everyone nervous. The minister’s forehead was also sweating, and he explained carefully.

The rules are set by the king, they are just following the orders of the king.

Internal affairs officer: “But you should also pay attention! Everyone, you must act lightly, and don’t think that you can relax because you are far away from the main hall!”

“Yes Yes.”

The internal affairs officer spoke for a while before leaving and returning to the main hall.

The whole main hall is in the cold air. Although it is summer, there is nothing wrong with turning on the air conditioner, but the cold air coming out of the entire main hall is scary enough. Even the light and adjustable biological clothing that can easily resist the cold winter has reached the highest temperature. The maids working inside even had to put on an equally adjustable down jacket over the biological clothes. At this time, the temperature in the main hall was nearly 100 degrees below zero. Not to mention splashing water into ice, there was not a single drop of liquid in the main hall that could be in a liquid state. .

The internal affairs officer was at the door, took the clothes handed over by the maid, and went in lightly after putting on the down jacket on the suit jacket.

The golden and smooth ground reflected the figure, and the huge bedroom didn’t have much decoration, which seemed a bit empty, but any item that existed here was the most precious thing in this world.

A person sat on a sofa carved out of ice by the most outstanding ice sculpture artist in the empire. Pale hands rest on his forehead, his silver hair hangs down like mercury, his pale skin is like a finely carved marble statue, with a thrilling beauty and majesty that makes people subconsciously want to kneel down.

At this time, his brows were tightly frowned, and he looked uncomfortable. Even though he was sitting on the ice with only a thin pajamas on, his forehead was sweating thinly.

The internal affairs officer was ordered by the king to see why there was such a noise over there, so he came back and reported to him: “Your Majesty, there are a relatively large number of NPCs in the virtual world system that have been recycled by the main system. They are busy Then send the chip to the owner.”

“How old is it?” he asked, his voice was heavenly.

“Around a million.”

This amount caused the king to open his eyes, revealing a pair of silver eyes. Those eyes are so beautiful that people are frightened. These are not eyes that a human race can have.

There was no need for the king to ask, the internal affairs officer hesitated for a moment, and then said, “It was recovered from the virtual world of the “Justice Trial” reality show.”

After finishing speaking, he was afraid that the king would not be happy when he heard this program, and thought that the king likes talents, because he himself is a scientific research madman, so he especially likes to engage in scientific research, so he said: “In the virtual world over there, a very powerful person appeared. NPC, the network security department said that he even made another virtual world in the virtual world. The million recovered NPCs are because he exposed the truth of the world in it. They are all curious, this Talent is not already discovered in the real world.”

Sure enough, the king’s attention was slightly diverted, “Really? Let me see.”

The internal affairs officer hastily turned on his brain, and found the pictures of Jiang Baiqi taken by netizens online.

Many netizens have screenshots of Jiang Baiqi’s picture, because they don’t believe in evil, and if they don’t believe that they will forget it after seeing it. People with Jiang Baiqi’s face will get bonuses, and the result is incredible. So far, no one can remember what Jiang Baiqi looks like.

Silver eyes looked over and saw a pale face with gray eyes.

The king’s expression froze.

…

In the palace network security department, K couldn’t hold back after all, and searched for Jiang Baiqi while trying to find out the identity of the recovered NPC.

Enter “Jiang Baiqi” ​​to confirm the search.

Come, let me see who Jiang Baiqi is in the real world.

The system ran for a while, and a bullet box appeared.

K hurriedly moved closer to look, but suddenly froze.

Search results, “none”.

How could it be “nothing”? This is unreasonable! The NPCs in the virtual world are the personality data of people in the real world, which is equivalent to a clone of a person, but this clone has no body and can be recycled back into the body of the real world.

Since Jiang Baiqi is inside, he should have an identity in the real world. Even if he is dead in reality, there should be an identity record in their system!

How could it be “nothing”?

K searched again unwillingly, but the search result was still “none”.

…

Song Juyao put down the novel in her hand and picked up “History of the Empire”, which was lent to her by another female prison guard to pass the time.

This world is more than a hundred times larger than the earth, and there are many types of creatures living here. At the top of the food chain, there are not only human beings, but also the owners of this land.

These kings are not humans, should we say they are gods? But they are not immortal, they will die, they will grow old, they will get sick and suffer. No, it should be said that they would not have been able to before, but after humans set foot on this land and made an agreement with them, they would.

What is the content of the agreement?

Song Juyao turned the pages of the book, just as she thought, the beginning of history is this agreement.
