Chapter 397: Chapter 52: The Soul’s Questioning Chapter 397: Chapter 52: The Soul’s Questioning “Holy smokes!

Holy smokes!

That’s so cool!

I wanna play too!”

From the Bluetooth headset came the impatient voice of the super artificial intelligence VV.

For a drama king like VV, the sight of Chu Anqing standing at the commanding heights of the city of Manhattan, standing at the center of the world, imitating the classic scene and dialogue from “Titanic”…

was just too impactful!

The resonance of a drama king!

As a result,

VV now was like a wild dog breaking free of its leash, crazily wanting to burst out of the earpiece and join the ranks of the drama kings.

It’s just a pity…

It was, after all, just a piece of computer code, unable to leave hardware, networks, or electricity even in death.

But.

It could annoyingly urge Lin Xian:

Get on, Lin Xian!

What are you waiting for!

This is when you’re supposed to come up from behind and hold her!

Spread your arms and embrace her arms, face the direction of the Statue of Liberty together, and then whisper in her ear that classic line from ‘Titanic’—”

VV immediately switched to a magnetic bubble voice:

“‘Winning that ticket was the best thing that ever happened to me.’”

“Would you hurry up and go!

Move it!

What are you dillydallying for!

Catch the scene!

Isn’t it rude to let a girl play ‘Titanic’ by herself!!”

“Hurry up!

Embrace her from behind!

I’ve got everything set up on my end, the moment you hold her, every speaker in the hotel will simultaneously play ‘My Heart Will Go On’…

This is your Titanic!

Your center of the world!”

“Embrace her!

Would you just hurry up and embrace her!

You couldn’t possibly have never seen ‘Titanic’, oh my, you’re really driving me nuts; I’m sending you a picture to imitate, just copy that!”

Ding dong.

Just as VV’s voice ended in the headset, an image popped up on Lin Xian’s phone screen.

He looked at it, and sure enough, it was a classic screenshot from the movie—

In this scene of the film, the female protagonist Rose stands on the ship’s bow railing, spreading her arms facing the sea and the Statue of Liberty.

Meanwhile, the male lead Jack embraces Rose from behind, steadying her, allowing her the freedom to let go and ‘fly.’

A highly classic scene in world cinema.

“See that, Lin Xian?

Go for the hug!

Just wrap your arms around her waist like that!

Can’t you take a hint, after she’s chosen this pose and these lines?

The female lead in ‘Titanic’ is a rich girl, and the male lead is just a pure dork who can only draw!

That’s you two, right?

Oh my goodness, you two are such a perfect match, go for the hug!!!”

VV, frantic, desperate, almost shattering its electronic vocal cords with its urgency.

Seeing Lin Xian had no intention of catching the joke or playing the game, VV nearly went nuts, pounding Lin Xian’s eardrums with its bass:

“You lousy man!

You’re absolutely despicable!

After she’s done so much for you, you can at least give her fireworks.

And now you won’t even catch the scene she’s setting for you, won’t take the hint she’s leaving you, I’m so disappointed in you.”

“Can you please mind your own business?” Lin Xian turned around and whispered with a hand over his mouth:

“Do I really need you to spell out the movie plot for me?

Which Earthling hasn’t seen that movie?”

“Rather…

what’s with you hovering around me all the time?

You should be studying, evolving, monitoring the surroundings, minding whatever you ought to mind…

Kevin Walker’s stealing the spotlight right in front of us, and you still have the leisure to play around with memes?”

“I’ll repeat myself, Kevin Walker has shown no hostility towards us, but that’s just for now.

Tonight, in my dream, I’ll go and interrogate that old man 600 years later on his reaction to the name Kevin Walker.

If I can discern from his expression and look in his eyes that he indeed is Kevin Walker himself…

Then VV, I have to say, you’ve gotten happy too soon.

We’re bound to have a clash with Kevin, this is no scaremongering; if that old man really is Kevin, unless we eliminate the young Kevin now, that old fellow could imprison and control me hard in the dreamscape for 600 years!

Now, who has the time for a Hollywood drama?”

VV kept on urging impatiently:

“I haven’t neglected any of these matters in the least.

I am not single-threaded, I can do many things at once; even though I’m currently in Mi Country, my other parts are still in the Tianhe-2 supercomputer back home, evolving.

I’m not contacting to avoid leaving traces for Kevin Walker to detect, and once you smuggle me back in person, I will surely be many times stronger.”

“Besides, don’t change the subject!

Oh…

I’m so frustrated with you.

Actually Lin Xian, I’ve studied the females around you.

Honestly, I personally root for Chu Anqing; I think she’s the most suitable girl for you.

If it were up to me, I would bet on her.”

Hehe!

This really made Lin Xian laugh:

“VV, aren’t you being a bit unfair picking sides like that?

You were created by Zhao Yingjun, and she’s the one who named you…

And now look at you, outright defecting to Chu Anqing’s team.

If anyone’s overstepping, it’s you, far more than me.”

“I have no recollection of any of this,”

complained VV through the Bluetooth headset:

“Even though you’ve told me all these stories, that I come from 600 years in the future, that Miss Zhao Yingjun built a City in the Sky and then gathered the world’s smartest scientists, taking over a hundred years to create me…

but I consider all of that just background lore to listen to; to be honest, it doesn’t feel real to me.”
