“Mr. Xuan, it’s my turn now.” Zhuang Li said calmly.
Xuan Ming’s face suddenly became clear: “What?”
Zhuang Li leaned down and looked directly into the other person’s dark eyes. “There is something I want to tell you.” He tapped his temple and whispered with a smile: “Actually, I also have a spy robot in my mind.”
Xuan Ming sat stiffly in the wheelchair, not knowing how to react. He didn’t expect that Xiao Curly would choose to confess at this time.
After being silent for a while, Xuan Ming found his voice: “I trust you.”
Zhuang Li straightened up, nodded and said, “I know.”
The two of them fell into silence, and then laughed together. The stalemate atmosphere suddenly became relaxed.
“Mr. Xuan, the surgery is very simple, can you do it?” After a few seconds, Zhuang Li was the first to speak.
“Two injections, right? I should be able to.” Xuan Ming rubbed his hands nervously.
“I’ll teach you if you don’t know. It’s very simple.” Zhuang Li pushed him into the operating room.
7480 screamed in horror: “Master, what are you going to do? Don’t arrest me, I will obey you from now on! Master, don’t send me into endless reincarnation, I beg you…”
However, it had no other choice but to scream and scream.
More than two hours later, Zhuang Li placed a glass slide under the quantum interferometer.
The chubby body of 7480 appeared on the screen. Sure enough, it was still in the form of a paramecium, but its activity was far less than that of the other three systems. At first glance, it looked like a dead cell soaked in chemical reagents.
Xuan Ming knew it and asked, “Why doesn’t it move?”
“It has no power and cannot open the drive.” Zhuang Li locked the slide into a safe made of glass.
7480 breathed a huge sigh of relief. It seemed that running out of energy was also a kind of luck, otherwise it would definitely be thrown into the endless reincarnation by the host.
“What are you going to do next?” Xuan Ming asked again.
“Next, I will try to combine these three robots into one to see if they will produce new changes.” Zhuang Li smiled with interest.
Hearing this, 7480 shivered hard, and 169 and 248 were also frightened. They started throwing out the bait one after another.
169: “Human, I am proficient in hypnosis. If you let me go, I am willing to bind with you. Lin Yayan’s ability to charm so many men was all due to me. With me, you can make anyone in the world become your slave!”
248: “Human, I am proficient in hacking technology and various high technologies! I can help you go further on the road of scientific research!”
The useless 7480: “…Ah!”
Zhuang Li remained unmoved and just combed his curly hair slowly. In order not to damage his appearance, he spent a long time studying how to increase the shooting accuracy of the quantum interferometer without shaving his hair, and finally conducted a successful experiment on Qiao Yanan.
Xuan Ming handed over a bottle of styling gel, then tilted his head to suppress a smile.
169 was worthy of being an expert in psychology and immediately caught Zhuang Li’s weakness: “After you are bound to me, you will become more and more beautiful!”
Zhuang Li sneered disdainfully: “I’m already extremely beautiful, how can you make me more beautiful?”
169: “…”
248: “I can make you smarter!”
Zhuang Li: “I have the best mind in the world, how can you make me smarter?”
248: “…”
7480 cried and shouted: “Master, you are the best! You are perfect, you are the smartest and most handsome in the world! There are no flaws in you!”
Zhuang Li carefully kneaded his curly hair into a messy but chic shape, and said with satisfaction: “7480, you said it very well. I appreciate your vision, so I’ve decided to keep your consciousness.” In other words, the other two systems will be swallowed up by 7480 and become the nourishment for its growth.
7480 knelt down with a plop, crying like a child for the first time in his life.
169 and 248 were desperate and angry, and couldn’t help but yell at Zhuang Li.
The laboratory suddenly became noisy, and Xuan Ming quickly slid his wheelchair and ran out the door. He was afraid that if he didn’t run, he would laugh like a madman for no reason.
….
After all systems were resolved, Zhuang Li finally focused on the development and construction of 5g networks. The five-year network construction plan proposed by Haiming Group was unexpectedly completed three years ahead of schedule. But he had been hiding behind the scenes and had never appeared in public.
People in the industry didn’t know much about him, and they had no idea that he was the chief engineer of China’s 5G network construction. All this stemmed from the state’s protection of him.
Under strict interrogation by relevant departments, Qiao Yanan quickly admitted that she was a spy sent by the United States. There was no way, if she didn’t admit it, the papers and scientific research results she stole could not be explained at all, and she had also repeatedly sold state secrets to the United States. These were all ironclad facts.
She wanted to pretend to be crazy and fool around, so the interrogators invited a professional psychiatrist to evaluate her. Her IQ was not very high, and this was revealed not long after the conversation started.
Eventually, she was imprisoned in a prison in northern Xinjiang to serve a life-long sentence. She often huddled in a corner of the cell, shaking her head and shouting nervously: “System, where are you? System, system, system…”
….
On the day when the 5g network was officially completed, Xuan Ming led Zhuang Li to attend an important commendation meeting.
On the way, they passed an overpass, but unexpectedly, a man in a black windbreaker suddenly appeared above the bridge, holding a strange-looking gun in his hand and aiming it at Zhuang Li, who was sitting in the car. He stood suspended in the air, the scene was strange, since to the people on and under the bridge, he seemed to be invisible.
“Particle gun!” Zhuang Li exclaimed through gritted teeth.
Xuan Ming felt a chill in his heart, and quickly pressed Xiao Curly’s head and pushed him under the seat, then rushed forward and covered him with his own body.
The man had already shot the moment he appeared. He didn’t have much time when travelling to this world, so he naturally had to do it as soon as possible. But he never expected that Xuan Ming would risk his life to help Zhuang Li block the bullet, so a fatal blood hole appeared in Xuan Ming’s back.
“The son of luck!” The man opened his eyes wide with a horrified expression. The next moment, the world began to block him, crush him, and swallow the light points he turned into one by one.
Zhuang Li saw this scene clearly from behind Xuan Ming’s hair, and his heart skipped a beat. Then, he touched a warm and sticky liquid. It was blood, a lot of blood! It was flowing down from Xuan Ming’s back and falling on his clothes.
“Mr. Xuan, are you injured?” Zhuang Li’s always lazy and casual voice was filled with fear for the first time.
Xuan Ming shook his head, but his spine shattered by the particle bomb had made him lose the ability to move, and he could only curl his fingertips slightly. He pursed his thin lips and tried hard to swallow the blood in his mouth, so as not to scare Xiao Curly.
Zhuang Li quickly took out his cell phone from his trouser pocket and dialed 120.
The driver sitting in the front seat was so frightened that he mistook the accelerator for the brake and crashed into the safety rails. Zhuang Li’s cell phone fell because of the violent shock.
Xuan Ming gritted his teeth to prevent himself from splattering blood on Little Curly’s face. This collision made his situation even worse.
Zhuang Li hugged Xuan Ming with one hand and touched his mobile phone with the other. He gritted his teeth and asked in his heart: “Is that person also sent by your Lord God?”
7480 had been integrated with 169 and 248, and Zhuang Li had soldered a nano chip into it and attached it to the back of his neck. By radiating bioelectric current to stimulate brain cells, it could also communicate consciously with the host.
“Yes, yes. He is the observer.”
“What is an observer?”
“The observer is an official who observes the plane where the system is located on behalf of the Lord God. Once a certain plane jumps in level within a short period of time, the observer will go to that plane to check the situation and eliminate bugs.” 7480 trembled: “I used to think that the Observers were just a legend, but I didn’t expect that they actually existed.”
There was no need for the system to explain more, Zhuang Li already understood.
He sneered in his heart: “I have invented a lot of high-tech things in the past two years, which has caused the world’s civilization index to increase rapidly, so it was discovered by observers, right? Your main god is indeed a predator, and the plane controlled by him can only decline or even be destroyed, but it can never develop more prosperously, right?”
7480 whispered: “Yes. The civilization coefficient of this world was originally only 0.6. In the past two years, it has become 0.8 under your promotion. It will soon approach the planetary civilization of 1.0. This is absolutely not allowed by the Lord God.”
Zhuang Li hugged Xuan Ming tightly and asked with hatred: “What happened to that observer?”
“He is dead. Nothing will happen to him if he kills you, but if he accidentally hurts Xuan Ming, he will be attacked by this world. This world is conscious, and Xuan Ming is the son of destiny in this world and is subject to all the protection from the laws of this world.”
Zhuang Li stroked Xuan Ming’s hair and comforted him softly, while sarcastically saying in his heart: “So the Lord God doesn’t dare to hurt him at all, so he can only send you snakes, insects, rats and ants to rob him of his luck.”
7480 shrunk himself to a small point and said in a trembling voice: “Yes, yes. Master, you have to be careful. If the technology of this world continues developing at a high speed, other observers will find you one day.”
Zhuang Li was not only unafraid, but also sneered contemptuously.
However, Xuan Ming tried hard to move his hand, gently placed it on the back of Xiao Curly’s hand, and said intermittently: “I will give you my luck.”
Zhuang Li looked at him in astonishment.
He pursed his lips and smiled: “I have a secret that I should have told you a long time ago. I, I can, hear the conversation between the systems and their hosts.”
Zhuang Li was still stunned, but 7480 had howled indignantly: “What? Can you hear us? No wonder so many systems couldn’t defeat you! It’s over, it’s over, there’s a bug! You, a human, are more cunning than the host!”
Zhuang Li quickly came to his senses, shook his head and chuckled: “I don’t care. I have a clear conscience towards you and have nothing to hide.”
Xuan Ming tried his best to put the mysterious gift into Little Curly’s hand and smiled intermittently: “I know you won’t mind. I’ll give all my luck to you.”
Zhuang Li subconsciously squeezed his hand, thinking he was talking nonsense.
7480 screamed in disbelief: “Master, master, he really gave you all his luck! Look at this holographic image!”
A human body scan picture appeared in Zhuang Li’s mind. His body was wrapped in a brilliant purple energy and continuously emitted dazzling white light, like a star walking among all living beings.
Zhuang Li was still studying the picture, when 7480 exclaimed: “Master, you are so charming, you can complete the task without any strategy! If he didn’t transfer the luck to you, Xuan Ming will definitely not die, at most he will be paralyzed. After all, his luck has always been good. But now he is dead for sure!”
Having said this, 7480 quickly covered his mouth and looked at Xuan Ming nervously, fearing that the other party would take back his luck.
Zhuang Li immediately held Xuan Ming’s hand and said forcefully: “Did you hear that? I can’t take away your luck!”
Xuan Ming shook his head, with a gentle and incredible smile: “I gave it to you, it is yours, I will not take it back. The observer will still come for you. Apart from luck, I don’t think there is anything else that can protect you.”
Zhuang Li thought that Xuan Ming would take back his luck after hearing 7480’s words. After all, that was what he relied on to survive. But he never expected that Xuan Ming would have no regrets at all. That was his life, why not? Why didn’t he regret it?
This question had long been in Zhuang Li’s mind. He was brought from the previous world to this world, but he still couldn’t find the answer. So he froze. His clever mind could solve all the mysteries in the world, but he could not understand why some people would be willing to give up their lives for other people.
There was an indescribable heat in his eyes, and he murmured unconsciously: “Why do you do this? Why?”
Xuan Ming smiled with difficulty: “Because I want to protect you.” He took a deep breath and said in a hoarse voice, “Tilt your head.”
Zhuang Li tilted his head blankly.
“A little further.”
Zhuang Li turned a little further until his head rested on Xuan Ming’s powerless right hand.
Xuan Ming moved his fingertips with difficulty, gently tracing the young man’s curly hair one by one and sighed with satisfaction and pleasure: “I have wanted to do this for a long time.”
The next moment, his fingertips fell, and his eyes slowly closed, except for the slight smile on the corner of his lips that lingered for a long time.
