Chapter 365: Chapter 232: If You Can’t Fix the Bug, Fix the Person Who Found It!
The result of questioning the person involved naturally left everyone in the dark, since the person themselves didn’t know what they had done.
"Are you kidding ?"
When Chen Ba heard from Guo Mo that the guy hadn’t done anything at the ti, and that the ga was just running in the background minimized, he was taken aback.
Really didn’t do anything else?
But if he didn’t do anything, were those 10 rit points really dropped from the sky?
"This is really bizarre..."
Lu was also baffled, having tried so many thods and tested countless tis, yet the root of the problem wasn’t found.
The most unbelievable part was that even the person involved didn’t know how the ga bug was triggered.
He didn’t even lie.
Because according to the ga operation log, this wretched character indeed hadn’t perford any action at the ti, purely idling!
"I can’t understand, since he didn’t do anything, the ga was just running in the background, why did the Heavenly Dao issue a reward of 10 rit points?"
Chen Ba beca increasingly confused.
If he doesn’t figure this out, he probably won’t sleep well at night.
After excluding all possibilities, the remaining possibility, no matter how unbelievable, is the most correct answer.
Has the code really taken a life of its own?
Lu thought Ba was a bit neurotic, initially firmly believing there was a bug in the ga, now starting to suspect the code had co alive.
This state is not good!
If he continues to overthink, even the "Three Illusory Gods" in Ba’s office might not be able to ward off the evil spirits, and he might end up in a ntal hospital.
"Ba, don’t think too much."
Lu comforted him, "Maybe it’s just a randomly occurring bug? If it really doesn’t work, shall we idle overnight and see for ourselves?"
"Alright then..."
"Inform everyone that this computer will run ’Cultivation Fantasy’ from now on, and no one is allowed to touch it!"
After thinking for a while, Chen Ba said, "Also, make sure the power and internet stay on, let the ga keep running, and tonight we’ll stay up and monitor it to see if anything changes."
"Okay, I’m with you!"
Lu was all in, what’s a night without sleep anyway, not a big deal?
Ba stays up for the first half, Lu for the second half, taking turns for short naps, ordering so fried chicken delivery, drinking so refreshing beverages—it won’t be that tough this night.
Though there’s a problem too.
If the sa issue arises during this ti, they can naturally breathe a sigh of relief and won’t need to stay up anymore.
But if they stay up all night and nothing happens with the ga running in the background, do they have to keep staying up until the problem occurs?
"Alright, let’s test tonight, and if there’s no problem, keep it running throughout the second test period without logging out, keeping the ga running in the background the whole ti."
Chen Ba believed the issue might not necessarily be caused by long-term idling, but this possibility couldn’t be ruled out.
Precisely because this possibility exists, they need to test it, as there’s no right to speak without evidence—it could well be that the bug results from long-term idling!
...
Chen Ba and Lu stayed up all night.
At eight the next morning, when Yang Dong and Huang Qing ca with porridge and stead buns to bring breakfast to the two, they found they were already eating.
"Why did you two order takeout if you were going to have us deliver?"
Yang Dong was speechless; these breakfasts were bought at his own expense. Had he known Ba and Lu weren’t starving, he certainly wouldn’t have spent that money.
"Sorry, Dong..."
Lu lanted, "I forgot during the call with you that I have a girlfriend, and also forgot she makes loving breakfasts."
Forgotten?
I think you did it on purpose!
This seemingly remorseful yet actually boastful statent not only disgusted Yang Dong but also perturbed the happily eating Chen Ba.
Only Huang Qing, being the married, llow middle-aged man, could resist Lu’s subtle boasting due to his dostic bliss.
"Alright, quit with the nonsense, if you’re not eating, Huang and I will!"
Yang Dong was upset, grabbed a stead bun, and stuffed it into his mouth, asking between bites, "So, what did you two discover staying up all night?"
"Nothing!"
After taking a sip of water, Chen Ba explained, "Idled all night in the background, and nothing happened; it seems it has little to do with idling."
"I feel the sa way..."
Lu agreed noddingly, "The ga ran smoothly, in no way could idling cause such a low-level bug."
"What now?"
"For now, let’s leave it at this. Monitor this computer, don’t let anyone touch it, let it idle throughout the second test period."
Chen Ba was extrely tired, waving his hand, "No need for soone to monitor it full-ti, just glance at it occasionally. I’m off to sleep."
Whatever, let it be!
Whether the code is alive or not, whether it’s a false alarm, Chen Ba doesn’t have the energy to keep dealing with it.
After all, the second test will last a week, and if during this week the bug doesn’t reappear, they’ll consider it a non-event and define it as a "random occurrence."
We can’t keep frightening ourselves with shadows, can we?
We can’t let an undecidable issue change our planned arrangent and delay the ga’s public testing, can we?
These actions are unthinkable.
The planned actions must be strictly executed; it’s impossible to scare ourselves out of proceeding with the public test due to an inexplicable 10 rit points appearing.
