Chapter 64 He's got a head injury, so there's no way he'd ask you out to dinner.
The tenth day of the first lunar month.
After the fireworks display, the new urban area entered a brief period of calm.
Shops have reopened, and various commercial activities are taking place, making it a lively place.
Visiting relatives and exchanging New Year's greetings creates a strong festive atmosphere.
In a corner somewhere.
A strange bird, resembling a crow, with wings like hands, holding a cell phone, its feathers swiping across the screen.
bang
Ga
The bomb scene inside terrified the crow so much that it threw its phone away and scrambled away.
Is the lightning strike again?
Wait, why didn't it explode?
The crow turned its head to look; the phone was still there, but the screen was cracked.
"That was... a video, yes, something called a video."
The crow breathed a sigh of relief and picked up the phone again: "I remember that human, he kept saying something about Brother Bai being the best, let's ask him."
Remembering the phone's owner, the crow picked it up and found someone named Brother Bai.
Voice or video call?
That must be a video.
beep...
Answer the call.
Next up, Brother Jiao.
beep……
This time the call was connected.
"Why are you calling me? I'm sleeping... Holy crap, a crow?"
Gu Xiaojiao had just clicked to answer when he jumped in fright and almost dropped the phone: "Old Guo, Old Guo..."
"Hello, Brother Jiao," the crow called out politely, its voice changing to that of a slender man.
"Hey Magan, is this the latest AI?" Gu Xiaojiao heard Magan's voice and some network technologies came to mind.
AI face-swapping?
Has the AI replaced the human?
No wonder so many elderly people get scammed; they're scared of themselves.
The crow asked, "Brother Jiao, do you know what the internet is?"
Gu Xiaojiao: "??"
Are you kidding me?
What is going online?
If you're not online, what are you doing?
Gu Xiaojiao's mind raced: "Do you know where Brother Bai's shop is?"
"What shop? Just teach me how to use the internet, we're good friends," the crow said quickly.
Gu Xiaojiao's mind cleared up: "Okay, send me your location, and I'll come over and teach you step by step."
"Location? How do I send it?"
"It's a chat window, there's a location there, send me the location."
Guo Jin, holding a book, pushed open the door and walked in: "Little Jiao, what's going on?"
"It's okay, Magan is using AI to replace human labor and is chatting with me. You can chat with him, I'm going to take a pee."
Gu Xiaojiao handed the phone to Guo Jin and got up to leave.
Guo Jin took the phone, looked at the crow on the other end, rubbed his eyes, and thought, "Hey, this technique is really advanced; there's not a single flaw to be found."
"Speak quickly, I still need to read," Guo Jin said.
"You're reading a book?" The crow's eyes lit up. The human had said that he read books since he didn't use the internet.
I knew I hadn't chosen the wrong person!
"Yes, I haven't finished memorizing all the classical poems for today," Guo Jin said.
The crow excitedly asked, "Can I watch it with you?"
Guo Jin's eyes lit up: "You like classical Chinese poetry too?"
I never expected that Magan would have this hobby.
It perfectly captures my heart!
Back in the police station, I was disliked by everyone, but I never expected to find a kindred spirit right beside me.
The crow laughed loudly, "Caw caw, I love it!"
"Come on, let's look at this together. I really like this poem, 'Ode to a Knight-Errant,' but there are just too many words." Guo Jin pointed the camera at the book: "Come on, let's read it together..."
……
"The police station? I suspect my friend was eaten by a crow, and that crow even called me, asking what 'going online' meant?"
"I'm Gu Xiaojiao. Guo Jin? He's currently reciting poetry via video call with that crow."
"They're really into memorizing it, they haven't given me my spot yet."
Gu Xiaojiao glanced back into the room: "Don't you have radar?"
Security: "The strange radar is under repair."
"Okay, I'll try my best to find out." Gu Xiaojiao hung up the phone.
Just as he was about to go inside, his phone rang again. It was a friend request: "I'm Gu Bai, add me as a friend."
? ?
Did Brother Bai change his number?
Gu Xiaojiao paused for a moment, then clicked "agree".
Doodle
To initiate a video call, click "Agree".
On the phone screen, Gu Bai, dressed in a black down jacket, sat at his computer desk: "Little Jiao, come out and play."
Gu Xiaojiao was slightly taken aback: "Out to play? Online?"
"Yeah, I found a great game, let's play together," Gu Bai said.
Gu Xiaojiao: "I have something to take care of here, Brother Bai, could you wait a bit?"
"What are you waiting for? Hurry up and come over. Am I not your brother anymore?" Gu Bai urged. "I'll give you ten minutes. I'll be there right away. I've sent you the address."
Snapped
Hang up the phone, not giving him a chance to refuse.
"Old Guo," Gu Xiaojiao scratched his head, "Brother Bai added me as a friend on his new account, asking me to go online and play games with him. Want to come?"
"Brother Bai wants to go online? I have to go. I need to show Brother Bai what marksmanship is all about." Guo Jin held his phone, not hanging up yet: "Brother, I'll teach you to recite poetry while we surf the internet."
Crow: "Go online? Great, go quickly, let me see how to go online."
……
Public Security Bureau.
Gu Qingyi was scrolling through her phone when a friend request came in: "I'm Gu Bai, please accept my friend request."
"This guy changed his number?" Gu Qingyi clicked "agree".
A video call popped up. Gu Qingyi looked around to make sure no one was paying attention before answering.
"Qingyi, I've booked a private restaurant. Do you have time now?" Gu Bai asked with a smile.
Gu Qingyi quickly replied, "Yes, yes, send me your location, I'll go there after get off work."
"I've sent you the location," Gu Bai said. "Can you come over now? I've already asked them to cook, and you're almost off work anyway."
Gu Qingyi thought for a moment, and since she didn't have anything else to do, she said, "Then I'll ask for leave."
"I'll wait for you." Gu Bai hung up the phone.
"That's strange. He hasn't replied to my messages for a while, so why did he suddenly ask me out for dinner? Has he finally realized something?" Gu Qingyi muttered to herself.
The Bodhisattva revealed: "I feel something is not right. He has a split open, so it's impossible for him to invite you to dinner."
"What nonsense are you spouting? How is it impossible?" Gu Qingyi said angrily.
"Since the New Year, Gu Bai has been like he's vanished into thin air. Why would he suddenly contact you and even change his number?" Bodhisattva said.
"What's wrong?"
Why did you change your phone number?
"Maybe they just don't want to use it anymore."
Bodhisattva: "He's a businessman with a group of customers on his account. Would he just switch accounts like that?"
Just then, Li Hongyi came out: "Yang Xi needs to see me. Qingyi, could you please help me out?"
"No, I have something to do," Gu Qingyi said.
Chen Youzhi also came over: "Captain Li, my wife is calling me home, can you cover for me?"
Gu Qingyi frowned: "Why is everything suddenly happening? Gu Bai just asked me to dinner. You guys cover for me, I'll go grab a bite, and I can work overtime when I get back tonight."
"Then I'll find someone else." Chen Youzhi and Li Hongyi exchanged a glance, then got up and left.
Within half an hour, most of the security guards received calls from relatives and friends, all of whom had urgent matters that they couldn't refuse.
Xiao Liu, who was spending time with his girlfriend, was dragged back to work.
Xiao Liu said angrily, "This is really unfair. I finally have a day to spend with my girlfriend."
After half an hour.
Jingle Bell
"Hello, this is the police station..."
A frantic female voice cried out, "Is this the police station? The sky is falling! My boyfriend and I are fighting! Help!"
Xiao Liu was slightly taken aback: "Ma'am, you're trying to have your cake and eat it too, and now you're calling the police? Do you want to hear what you're saying?"
"They are my two identical boyfriends."
"Twins? They're quite the players." Xiao Liu, who couldn't be with his girlfriend, was filled with resentment.
"I only have one boyfriend, and suddenly someone who looks exactly like me appeared. They're fighting! Come quick!"
"Address, I'll be there soon."
