Chapter 98 System Upgrade Completed, Leaving (End of Main Text...)

Gu Yiliu and Han Yi rushed back to Yaohai City.

The goose said it was currently in Yaohai City. It had heard from other birds that there was a police officer named Gu in Yaohai City, and that the criminals had also gone there, so it wanted to give it a try.

The goose said that the criminals trained some of their kind and then used them to commit crimes.

It approached Gu Yiliu because his wife had been kidnapped by these people.

"Quack quack quack!" My wife and I were heading south for the winter, but she was caught and imprisoned along the way. She's been being trained and disciplined. If she doesn't follow their orders, they'll kill the geese. Officer Gu, please, please save my wife!

"You know where they are right now, right?"

"Quack quack quack!" Knowing this, they planned to make the deal in the rented room.

Wild goose: "Quack quack quack!" Officer Gu, I can take you to scout the place. Lots of beautiful women appear there every day; one more of you won't make much of a difference!

Gu Yiliu was taken aback; she felt like she had overlooked something.

Han Yi noticed she was lost in thought and asked, "What's wrong?"

Gu Yiliu told him what Dayan had said, "I think it's a bit strange, but I don't know why."

"There are many women, so it's possible that..."

Gu Yiliu suddenly realized, "I know what's strange. Drug use, and then engaging in sex trafficking, is perfectly normal for these people!"

"Possibly."

Gu Yiliu shared her speculations with her colleagues at the police station, and Han Yi joined the operation, while she waited for news outside.

She waited until the early hours of the morning before Dian Dian finally spoke, "They've finished work."

At the same time, Gu Yiliu heard a pleasant notification sound.

"Received 8% positive feedback from Dayan".

Gu Yiliu was both surprised and delighted.

"Only eight geese survived, the rest..."

Gu Yiliu was taken aback. "Did they catch a lot of geese? What happened to the wife of the goose that asked us for help?"

"It survived. It was lucky; it had only been captured a short time ago and hadn't been tortured too much."

"That's good." Gu Yiliu breathed a sigh of relief.

Gu Yiliu knew the aftermath of this incident very well, not because she was concerned, but because she was promoted at that time.

She was rehired by the public security system.

The other party's exact words were, "You always participate in solving these major cases, and you can always find key informants. The public security system can't do without a brilliant detective like Officer Gu. We're not competing with the Forestry Bureau for personnel; you can hold positions in both!"

Gu Yiliu ultimately held multiple positions. In the Forestry and Grassland Bureau, he handled cases involving animals; in the Public Security system, he also handled cases involving people, managing to do both without neglecting either.

...

A month later, Dian Dian, who had been silent for a long time, finally appeared.

DianDian: "First-class, I'm going to do the final upgrade."

Gu Yiliu: "I thought you had already completed the upgrade, after all, you haven't shown up for a month."

Dian Dian: "...I was doing preparations during the month I disappeared. I was taking stock of my supplies."

"Is the inventory finished?"

Dian Dian hummed in agreement.

Are there any missing?

"..." After a moment of silence, Dian Dian spoke softly, "...I'm a little short. It would be great if you could help me buy some."

This time, Gu Yiliu was speechless. She was just waiting for her to ask that question.

However, she still bought her a lot of supplies in the end.

After Dian Dian finished collecting the supplies and thanked them, Gu Yiliu saw her disappear. She checked the system panel, which displayed "Upgrading".

This fourth upgrade was a long process; a whole month passed and the system panel still showed "Upgrading".

When Gu Yiliu sensed something was wrong, a month and a half had passed since Dian Dian started leveling up.

Gu Yiliu was still asleep when he heard Dian Dian's voice.

It woke her up, but didn't appear.

Gu Yiliu only heard its voice.

"Top-notch, I've completed the upgrade. Thank you for your help."

"Dian Dian, where are you?" Gu Yiliu looked around, but it was pitch black. She turned on the lamp, and Han Yi was still asleep.

Instead of answering her question directly, Dian Dian asked her what she wanted.

"I want to repay you. What do you want? Anything is fine with me."

Gu Yiliu fell silent. She glanced at Han Yi, hesitating.

Dian Dian noticed her hesitation. "Do you want to go back to the apocalypse? Can't you let him go?"

"I was thinking about whether I should tell him I'm leaving. If I leave now and leave a note, even if he believes I'm gone, he'll definitely keep looking for me." Gu Yiliu felt that he understood Han Yi quite well.

It wasn't that she couldn't let go of Han Yi. She believed that even if she were in the apocalypse, as long as she told Diandian that she wanted to see Han Yi whenever she wanted, she could see him whenever she wanted.

Knowing a little about her thoughts, I was speechless.

How does this host know it so well?!

"Don't hesitate, I can help you tell him."

Gu Yiliu thought for a moment and asked it, "Will my departure affect this world?"

"No." Dian Dian said confidently.

"Then... if I go back to the apocalypse, will I still have to kill zombies?"

Dian Dian: "Yes, but no new zombies will be born, so we just need to kill all the existing zombies."

"How many zombies are there?" Gu Yiliu asked curiously about the current number of zombies.

“400 million.” Dian Dian’s voice was a little heavy.

"How many?!" Gu Yiliu exclaimed in disbelief. "Why are there suddenly so many zombies?"

"No, not at all." Dian Dian expressed her understanding of her overreaction.

It reminded her, "When cutting the contaminated stone, the contaminant radiated over a large area to humans, so..."

Gu Yiliu understood. "So you actually want me to go back to the apocalypse so you can help me kill zombies!"

"...Yes and no."

Do you believe that the world space overlaps?

Gu Yiliu said he didn't understand.

"Anyway, what I mean is that the trajectories will overlap, and I don't care whether you understand or not."

Are you leaving now?

"My parents?"

"Don't worry about them, we'll meet. You can trust me to handle things."

"What?"

Dian Dian interrupted her, "Stop rambling on and on, are we going or not?"

Gu Yiliu gritted his teeth, "Let's go!"

Dian Dian: "Okay, lie down and close your eyes. I'll tell you when to open them again."

Gu Yiliu glanced at Han Yi, then lay down and closed his eyes.

Soon Gu Yiliu could no longer hear the sounds from the outside world.

...

Meanwhile, after sending Gu Yiliu back to the apocalypse, Dian Dian looked at the man on the bed.

"Han Yi, open your eyes when you wake up."

"..."

Han Yi opened his eyes. He had woken up quite early and heard Gu Yiliu talking to himself. He guessed what was going on and didn't open his eyes, but he didn't expect Gu Yiliu to just disappear like that.

A small light was turned on in the room. He looked around the room but didn't see anyone. Then he heard the same voice speak again.

The voice carried a hint of seduction and judgment, "Yiliu has gone somewhere, do you want to go too?"
