Chapter 174: People who favor, who plot with their hearts, who are fools.

The Worldline channel had been opened internally by 061, and Ji Zuoshan had forced open the door for him that had been left open.

Thus, by the time 061's eyes opened again, he had returned to the Valley of the Lost Butterflies where he had been when he was forcibly taken away.

The vipers in the mountain had already perished, and the small snakes she kept had also scattered and fled when the people of Jingxu Peak searched the valley.

Now that the fog in the mountains has been dispersed, and there are only withered branches and leaves left, we can only wait for time to heal the wounds left by the demon.

061 was holding onto a tree, barely able to stabilize his body, and raised his hand to press his temples, calling up data, when he was stabbed with a frown by a beeping, booping mess of electrical sounds.

The signal he was able to release was extremely weak, and he couldn't even interface with Chi Xiaochi, not even to return to the main God's space.

However, the advantages and disadvantages were all relative, the Lord God also could not monitor his movements, and naturally would not know Ji Zuoshan's existence.

Ji Zuoshan's incarnation of a ball of energy value floated around him in circles, anxious but unable to help, "Mr. Six, are you alright?"

The electrical damage originated from within 061's body and is data level damage.

Although Ji Zuoshan's spiritual power is strong, most of it is applied to himself.

In other words, he knows how to destroy efficiently, but not how to heal others.

061 did not make any demands, said "thank you", wiped away the blood spilled from the corner of his mouth, sat down against a tree and rested for a while.

Ji Zuoshan was a little guilty: "I didn't help much."

061 smiled, "That's very kind."

Ji Zuoshan was originally shy, not very talkative, and did not want to waste 061's energy, so he quietly floated around him, pretending to be a light.

061 closed his eyes and rested for a while, then suddenly asked a question, "That day, the day the main god space was destroyed, you didn't come, did you?"

"No." Ji Zuoshan said, "It's Luo Qian, Xiao Wang, and Zhan Yanchao, the three of them."

061 smiles lightly, "Hmm. It occurs to me that you shouldn't be the kind of person who would just strike out and hurt someone."

Ji Zuoshan was even more surprised than 061, "Huh? Who hurt someone? Zhan Yanchao?"

061 shook his head once, indicating that he wasn't sure either, "How did they find the main god's space?"

Ji Zuoshan is a little embarrassed, "They ah ......"

......

At this moment, in the main God's space, "in a flash".

089 stood in front of the main god with a smile, heartless, "Boss, what's the matter with calling me?"

The Lord God said, "Looks like he's in good spirits, pretty much healed up, I guess, you've worked hard."

089 Open your mouth, "Boss, don't just verbally encourage ah, for the sake of my work injury, give a little wage increase."

Lord God: "......"

It decided not to give 089 any more free rein.

089 It didn't want to learn more about the power of that broken mouth.

The Lord God asked, "Did you see the intruder that day."

089 shook his head, "Nope."

"See what weapon they used to injure you."

089 Haha a laugh, "Boss, you're funny. I haven't even seen anyone yet."

"But you were injured head-on."

089 said: "Boss ah, I can not see people, but people can see me ah, up a nine Yin White Bone Claw gave me a hole, I have what move, you say is not it? Yes."

...... This self-questioning is really breathtaking.

The Lord God was patient and ended the conversation early, "Alright, you're just injured, go back to rest early."

089 The box of words was shut back down just as it opened, with a look of intent, and a flirty flying kiss to the Lord God before covering the door and leaving.

Only after he left did the Lord God ask the AI, "How did the ...... inspection go?"

"He's not lying." Fang Cai sneaked into the AI of 089's memory system and reported truthfully, "His memory cuts off at being startled by a loud noise behind him, turning around, and the next thing you know, he's blacked out. Please rest assured that he is not hiding anything."

The Lord God let out a laugh, ''Just in case. Stupid people like him don't have to care too much. What's most feared are people who are smart, like that 061. ...... He's already under the control of the other system now, right?"

The AI checked again to make sure it was correct before reporting back, "Yes. It's almost impossible to detect his signal anymore."

The pleasure between the Lord God's words could not be hidden, "Good, it's good that this will make him learn a lesson."

089 all the way back to the dormitory, bored, casually open the drawer of their own storage of snacks, picked a packet of unpacked caramel crackers, and from the bookshelf picked a book, a piece of the crackers out of the bag, while reading and eating, cracker crumbs along the mouth rustling down.

023 had just come out of the restroom carrying a mop, and a glance at his appearance made him simply furious: "I just swept the floor!"

089 lowered his head, let out an "ouch" and hastily apologized, "I'm sorry I'm sorry."

023 Cheeks are given a rounded gas, returned to fetch a broom, re-sweeping again.

As he passed 089's side, he didn't have the heart to say, "Feet!"

089 dutifully put his feet up while handing him the bag of cookies, "Eat?"

023 folded back into the restroom with the dustpan & broom and said in disgust, "Sweet and cloying."

089: "It's delicious."

023: "You're the only one in the whole system who loves these cookies, and 009 doesn't even eat them. Don't say I didn't warn you, sooner or later one day you'll eat diabetes, three shots of insulin a day and you'll be honest."

089 bit into a cookie and said vaguely, "I have to use my brain, so I'll eat something sweet to make up for it."

023 replied from a distance, "Your brain is going to be stuck in syrup."

With a smile, 089 reached into the cookie bag and fished out the next cookie.

But this cookie, covered in thick, rich caramel, is a little different.

Written in white chocolate sauce on the cookie in a few unspoken words, "Believe it. Channel it."

089 looked at the six words for a moment, his expression unmoving as he clicked the cookie off and reached into his pocket again.

Before touching the next cookie, his fingertips came across a miniature memory.

089 held the memory in his fingers, but was in no hurry to take it out, tapping it lightly on the bottom of the box as if he were playing chess, as if weighing whether the memory was trustworthy or not.

It took him twenty seconds to make a decision before 023 walked out of the restroom.

089 Remove the memory and pair access to the brain consciousness.

In a flash, 20 minutes of brand new memories flooded his mind.

...... That was his memory on the night of the incident.

Upon receiving the summons from the main god, he copied the memories and placed them into this memory, whirling himself around and completely emptying the memories associated with all the things he had seen that day, and finally placing the memory in this bag of caramel cookies that only he would eat, and writing a reminder with white chocolate sauce to remember to retrieve the memories when he returned.

After all, the best way to hide the truth is to forget.

Twenty minutes of information is not a lot for the system.023 When he came out with the mop, 089 even changed the book and lay on his back, holding the book in one hand, resting one hand behind his head, and crossing his legs in a big way, like an all-absorbing landlady.

...... Looking at him like this, 023 kinda want to dislike the mop on his face.

But the other man was still half injured, so he could only think about it.

And 089, who was reading the book, rewinds his memory to the night of the invasion of those three mental beings.

While everything was still going on, 089 was sitting in the duty room, eating matcha lasagna while a doggy serial was on public play.

As the sister hissed tearfully to the heroine why she was stealing my man, three ghosts of transparent energy floated behind him.

The three energizers looked at each other, and one of the tallest youths held his neck and moved it from side to side a bit as he wordlessly approached him, intending to hold him hostage and ask for some information.

With his back to them, 089 brought the last small piece of cake to his mouth, licked the cream off his fork, and said as cordially as if he were greeting an old friend, "There you are."

The man who was about to make a surprise attack recoiled in shock.

"I can't believe I caught up with it, and I don't know if my luck counts as good or bad."

089 turned from the swivel chair as if not very surprised by their arrival.

He counted the number of energizers present, "Hmm? A little more people came in than I thought. I thought I could only send in a maximum of two at a time. Quite good, now we can put together a mahjong table."

With that said, he waved his hand and added an extra layer of protection and soundproofing data inside the duty room.

His series of statements plus his actions caused all three of them to be a bit perplexed.

The youth who had planned to sneak up on him was skeptical, "You know us?"

089 mused, "Something like that."

The youth's tone got agitated all of a sudden, and he looked like he wanted to rush up and pick him up by the front flap, "You're the 061?!"

089 pressed his palm down, "Hey hey, don't guess, I know you guys, but you don't know me. Instead of wasting our time guessing around, let's all save each other's time ......"

He ran his eyes over the three and selected an energy body whose face could not be seen, but could be judged to be female by looking at her figure, "What you want, I may be able to help you obtain it. ...... Luo Qian."

The tall woman who hadn't uttered a word since a moment ago was stunned at her words, "How do you know my name?"

089 laughed, "I know a lot. I also know that the person who invaded the other day was named Ji Zuoshan."

The three men were collectively silent for a moment.

Wang Xizhou, who came with them to smash the scene, obviously didn't expect such a situation and couldn't help but glance at Luo Qian with his remaining eyes.

Luo Qian's heart is now settled.

She had hammered in the army for many hours and had been to the battlefield, so she had a delicate heart to judge the situation.

"Did 061 tell you that?"

"He hasn't been back long enough to know about the intruder."

"You knew Ji Zuoshan was here, but didn't tell anyone else. Why?"

"Well ......"

089 pressed his temples as if he was seriously remembering, but his eyes were fixed on Luo Qian.

His light brown pupils and the teary moles at the end of his eyes stood out in the soft, warm light.

He speaks slowly to people he doesn't know well, but automatically cuts out a lot of trash talk that interferes with his vision, thus sweeping away his usual lazy chatter and making his logic quite clear.

"The intruder didn't go anywhere after entering the main God's space, but went straight into the archive room, with too clear a purpose. And after an inventory, there was no reduction in the number of files on the shelves. The intruder should have had enough time to take away any of the files, but he didn't, which proves that he didn't come to steal."

"The alarm went off nearly 30 seconds after the security system detected his presence before it was deactivated. But why did that intruder stay for another 30 seconds after he knew he had been detected? Clearly he was capable of leaving just as the alarm went off."

"There was a deep handprint on the side of the fallen cabinet. Of course, our security system's signaling is so strong that he should have been in pain by then, but not only did he not rush off, he lingered for a full half-minute and toppled the cabinet."

"I wondered if he had been caught in the middle of reviewing a file and tried to put that file back, but was controlled by the security system and couldn't do it for a while, so he had to push the shelves down."

"After all, the best way to hide a leaf is to make it hidden in the forest."

"All the paper files on the fallen shelves added up to a total of 375. I took the opportunity to confirm each one of them when I was helping 339 in the archive room to organize them. Later, I came to the conclusion that out of all of them, only 61 brought out a monster like Ji Zuoshan who had the ability to infiltrate our system alone."

Not waiting for Luo Qian to ask, 089 narrowed his eyes and smiled: ''Because my lover is quite nosy, I know that Ji Zuoshan has some good friends, such as you, Luo Qian, so I thought that after Ji Zuoshan's failure last time, you guys might make a trip again. However, you can rest assured that I found the file of 61 from the full file, I guessed that something is not right, just in case, I took my own file as a replacement, his file by hand into my shelf. When 339 in the archives room reported the list of 375 files, there was no 61 on it at all, and you needn't worry about our bosses associating it with Ji Zuoshan."

After saying so many words in one breath, 089 smiled and stared at Luo Qian : "I have already shown my sincerity. What about Miss Luo Qian."

"We have come for two purposes." 089 spoke slowly and clearly, having left Luo Qian enough time to think, Luo Qian then reciprocated with great sincerity, "Firstly, we want to find out what that 061 does; secondly, we want to do some damage to this place, a sort of revenge. Which of these things are you able to help us do?"

089 whistled, "Neither one is hard. But you have to be careful. Our boss has a bad temper, and if he knew where you guys came from, he might give up his blood money to screw you. I guess things weren't too good the last time Ji Zuoshan went back."

At those words, Zhan Yanchao secretly clenched his fists.

Luo Qian sighed lightly.

Xiao Ji is the god of war for the entire planet. A few days ago, he suddenly vomited blood and fainted in his dormitory, causing panic within the military for a time, but luckily the news was blocked in time to prevent further riots.

The result of the examination was that his mental power had been heavily damaged for unknown reasons.

The medic was at a loss, and Ji Zuoshan, in a coma, had been talking intermittently in strange dreams.

......061, 061, file, put it back.

At first, Luo Qian and the others thought he was just talking nonsense because he was badly hurt, but then the more they heard, the more wrong he was.

That 061, it looks like a person?

Luo Qian performed the test and, with little effort, localized a teleportation channel in Ji Zuoshan's psychic energy.

This place, I believe, is the place that caused him to be injured.

Luo Qian They did not know Ji Zuoshan s connection with 061, so naturally they would not associate it with a story of retribution with a hundred twists and turns.

The military mindset led them to suspect that the "Main God's Space" was a strange alien space that would affect the security of their planet, and Ji Zuoshan went there privately to find out what was going on, only to be injured by the people there.

So they decided to come and go.

With a marked teleportation channel, Luo Qian mobilized an entire army of Alpha's, plus himself, Wang Xizhou, and Zhan Yanchao, an Alpha with a superior level of psychic power, who opened a channel and traveled hundreds of thousands of miles, jumping several dimensions, to seek vengeance.

089 Naturally, he would not tell Luo Qian 061 what he had done.

Otherwise, if the one surnamed Zhan went crazy on the spot, he might not be able to pull himself together.

089 lightly snorted, "61 is as much Ji Zuoshan's friend as yours. When Ji Zuoshan wakes up, you can ask him. But I don't suggest you guys go to the archives to find information related to 61. Since the last time Ji Zuoshan was here, the archive room has been monitored more closely than anywhere else."

Luo Qian weighed her options and nodded painfully, "That leaves us with only one thing to do."

089 gave another suggestion, "Suggest not to hurt anyone, burn the archive room, if you really can't relieve your anger, our boss's room is called 'In a flash', go out and turn right for three hundred meters. Don't go and beat him up personally, he has high authority and thick skin, he can't be beaten up."

Wang Xizhou listened in amazement.

He felt that this man was simply the legendary teammate who sold his teammates by the pound.

What the hell does he figure.

Zhan Yanchao had the same concern: "What makes you so helpful?"

"'Gang' then, is a milder term." 089 laughed, "To be precise, our relationship is a partnership of interest."

Luo Qian pressed Zhan Yanchao's shoulder, signaling him to be quiet: "How?"

089 spread his hands, "Don't you guys think that you owe me a favor for all the explanations I've given you and all the pointers I've given you."

Luo Qian says, "What do you want us to do in return?"

"Simple." 089 said, "You guys just do one thing for me."

"What is it?"

"I'm not thinking about it right now."

Zhan Yanchao, who is not a personality that is easily convinced, asked rhetorically, "Could it be that if you keep thinking bad thoughts, we'll keep owing them and be on call?"

089 thought about it, "There's nothing wrong with you saying that."

"You--"

089 Crossed his fingers in front of his lips, "Shhh."

He removed the data barrier outside the room and lowered his voice with it, "If you guys don't say yes that's fine, I'll call it in."

Zhan Yanchao has never seen such a brazen, flip-flopping faster than a book, a moment of jaw-dropping.

Luo Qian asked, "Aren't you afraid of exposure?"

"I'm afraid. But I'm just one person, you guys are three. Oh, plus Ji Zuoshan from last time. if our boss finds out, you probably won't have a good time."

089 Fingers gently stroked the tear mole at the end of his eyes, "It's not easy for your planet to regain peace, if it falls back into a state of war, a lot of things will not be easy to do, right?"

In a few short sentences of bluffing and scaremongering, he kidnapped a planet, sat on the ground, and used an entire planet as his bargaining chip.

Zhan Yanchao : "...... Fuck me. Luo Qian, let's kill him."

Luo Qian had a bit of a headache, "Deputy Master Zhan, you and Xiao Wang go out and check out the situation, pay attention to concealment."

Zhan Yanchao reluctantly went out.

Luo Qian unhooked the red spike of the mech key at his waist, unwrapped the thin knot, divided it in half, and handed it over to 089 quite dryly: "This charm has been with me for more than ten years, and it has absorbed a lot of the radiation from the Naman metal, equivalent to a small sensor and radiator, when there is any need, press it twice continuously, and a slight induction will be generated from my side. But let me make it clear in advance, this favor is not owed by me to you, it is owed by Ji Zuoshan. When I get back, I'll give this to him. If 061 is really your friend, then having him owe you a favor is nothing. But if you lied, then our partnership will be dissolved. Are you able to accept that?"

089 took the red spike and laughed, "You think too much, I had no intention of keeping this opportunity for myself. For the sake of my own life, I will not see you again. I will pass this favor on to our family 61, and please give this to Ji Zuoshan as well.I hope that you will be able to pull him along in his time of need."

Luo Qian couldn't hide her admiration and praised, "You're very smart."

"Thanks." 089 laughed, "It's not often that someone compliments me like that."

Luo Qian was a bit surprised by this answer, "Really."

089 doesn't care: "It's not easy to raise a family, so a little less sharp would be good for everyone."

Luo Qian said, "But have you considered that you, the person on duty, are responsible if we just leave?"

089 said, "Don't worry, I'll handle myself."

The next thing that happened was, unsurprisingly, chaos in the main God's space, with the sound of fires starting, doors slamming, and fire alarms activating ......

And Luo Qian and the others have long since erased the traces of their arrival and withdrawn.

And it's time for 089 to arrange a fallback for himself.

He sat back in his chair, his mouth open and biting down on his tie, his left hand clenched into a fist against his right clavicle, adjusting it at the right angle to make sure the wound looked like someone taller than him had struck him.

He gently breathed a sigh of relief, moved his fingers, and sighed to himself, "...... It's not easy to raise a family."

In the next second, a destructive command spilled out from between his fingers, instantly striking the bones of his own shoulder in tatters.

Without a word, he followed the momentum of the command's impact and fell backwards, stumbling to the ground and rolling hard several times.

089 released his mouth from biting his tie and vomited blood as well.

This wound can be exchanged for not being noticed by the main god, can ensure the safety of 023, who is closest to him, can continue to be a salty fish happily, can exchange a favor for 061, and can let 023 take care of himself.

Pretty good deal too.

Being unintelligent is indeed a good thing that can be traded for a lot of benefits and little flings, isn't it.
