Chapter 801: Chapter 801: As Long as I Pay, It’s Fine
Seeing the copy of “Time-Space Monster Management Bureau,” the coder was somewhat excited. He was also following the variety show, but unlike the broader audience who preferred the satellite TV version, he belonged to the small group that liked the internet version.
While “Time-Space Monster Management Bureau” was being broadcast on TV, another internet version was also playing online, but the internet version was completely different, more like a detective show.
Whether it’s the Earl’s Case or Toilet’s Case, the culprits were unexpected, suspenseful, and thrilling.
Little Taotie’s performance was also astonishing. Whether or not it’s her persona, the little girl was clever and cute, her style resembling Sherlock Holmes. Every time she held a toy pipe, her little face was serious and earnest, creating a cute contrast.
Compared to the humorous and fun TV version, the tech guys clearly preferred the suspenseful detective internet version.
The coder had a group, and everyone in it was a tech guy. Recently, they’ve all leveled up to being “dads,” virtually enjoying Zaizai.
This time, the coder contacted Zaizai, not only because of a momentary impulse after breaking up, wanting to find someone to chat with, but also because he hadn’t given up on the idea of creating a hit game.
The main inspiration came from the internet variety show.
He wanted to create a detective game where players, upon entering the game, would randomly assume a new identity, perhaps as a culprit, a victim, a passerby, or a detective.
Players would participate in the game based on their identity and conceal their identity.
Little Taotie pointed to the copy: “I want the house inside to be different every season, very beautiful, very magical, very fantastical…”
The coder thought for a moment and asked, “Similar to the game background?”
Little Taotie tilted her head, “Maybe it is.”
“Alright, I’ll change it when I get back.”
“How much time do you need?”
“My friend is an artist. We can collaborate; it should be done quickly.” The coder was very confident: “Within seven days.”
Little Taotie nodded, very happy, and waved her little hand: “Coder Brother, I’ll pay you! How much do you want?”
The coder looked at the Black Card handed over by the little girl and fell silent.
Little Taotie was completely unguarded, wasn’t she?
What if he was a bad guy? He could snatch the card right now!
The coder sighed, kids don’t understand, a dad’s responsibility.
As a dad fan, he needed to teach her well.
So the coder began advising earnestly, telling her that the Black Card could be used without real-name authentication, anyone could swipe it, and there was no limit. If a bad guy took it, they’d swipe for money, and might even become violent, committing murder to silence witnesses.
Little Taotie pointed at herself: “The bad guy would kill me?”
She pointed at the card again: “Snatch the card?”
The coder nodded: “Yes, people risk their lives for wealth, birds perish for food. You never know what immoral deeds the wicked will commit for money.”
Little Taotie looked at the stone table and asked: “Coder Brother, does breaking the table count as damaging public property?”
The coder bewilderedly nodded: “Of course it counts.”
Little Taotie pointed to the Black Card: “I swipe the Black Card to compensate, is it alright then?”
The coder was more bewildered, but still nodded: “If you pay for damages, it should be fine.”
Little Taotie looked innocent: “Then I’m relieved.”
As soon as she finished speaking, the little girl took a martial stance, let out a soft “ha,” and her tender little fist smashed onto the stone table.
The coder was shocked, eyes wide, almost popping out!
A crack appeared on the surface of the stone table, getting deeper and wider, slowly splitting apart…
The coder witnessed this scene with his own eyes but couldn’t believe it, remaining speechless for a long time.
Little Taotie finished her move, smiling: “If a bad guy snatches my Black Card, I’ll turn him into a stone table!”
