One week later.

Xu Manzhi was digging for wine in the yard when she heard a weary voice in her mind.

"Master... I'm leaving."

Heihei was punished for violating regulations and will soon disappear.

Once it disappears, the space will cease to exist.

"So fast?" Xu Manzhi was shocked.

"Yes. While the space is still open, take everything stored inside and retrieve it, otherwise you will be destroyed along with the space."

Xu Manzhi felt a pang of panic.

She didn't have much affection for Hei Hei in the past.

But after the fire five years ago, and the help it has given her time and time again, in her heart, Heihei has almost become an integral part of "me".

She felt a pang of reluctance as it was about to leave.

"It will probably be in about three days before the space is completely shut down. You need to hurry, because I'm about to fall into a deep sleep and will never be able to appear again."

It came to say goodbye to its owner.

The fact that the protagonist rose from cannon fodder to become the female lead, creating something impossible, is the most successful thing it has ever done in its long history.

No regrets.

Xu Manzhi sighed. If she could keep Heihei, she would want to hug it.

"Hehe, Master, I can feel the affection you have for me. That's enough. You're from the apocalypse, haven't you noticed that you've become more emotional and sentimental?"

It had witnessed its owner's changes all along.

Perhaps she herself didn't even realize it.

Upon hearing Heihei's words, Xu Manzhi was suddenly struck by the realization that she had already integrated into real life and become a woman of flesh and blood in this world.

She smiled silently.

“Heihei, thank you for accompanying me all the way. You are the best space spirit and my greatest friend in this life. My heart is with you.” Xu Manzhi said with melancholy.

Parting is always painful.

When the story comes to an end, looking back on everything that has happened, there is an indescribable, faint sorrow of parting.

We've held hands, we've had our chance encounters, we've created unforgettable moments together, so what regrets could there be?

Xu Manzhi was quite satisfied.

The same applies to Heihei.

"Farewell, my master, my most beloved human..."

The dark voice lingered in Xu Manzhi's mind, never fading away, as if there was a small corner there reserved for it forever.

throat--

Xu Manzhi felt a sense of heaviness.

She has truly lost Heihei completely.

The thundercloud bead hanging around her neck had lost its luster and become cloudy. Even the fragrance that had previously clung to her skin had completely dissipated, and she could no longer smell it even when she got close.

Three days is both enough and not enough.

When Yan Lin heard that her cheat system was about to disappear completely, he hurriedly asked, "How much stuff do you still have in your storage space?"

"Why don't you go and take a look?"

After saying that, Xu Manzhi led Yan Lin into the space.

When he saw the vast and endless things inside, his eyes widened in shock, and he exclaimed in a low voice, "This, this is too much."

"Yes, so I plan to have you donate all of the weapons to the country."

Those were all taken from the Jingzu tribe.

Many of them bought them from arms dealers.

Many of the weapons are quite advanced and could be taken back, modified, and reused.

A significant amount of grain and provisions were also provided by domestic subsidies to the Jingzu people, and they can now be put on the market.

"Find a pretext," Xu Manzhi said.

Yan Lin shook his head.

"What do you mean?" Xu Manzhi asked, puzzled.

Yan Lin said, "I can donate the weapons directly, but for the other supplies, find a secluded cave to hide them first. Once we find the spy, I will donate them in your name..."

Xu Manzhi was stunned.

She hadn't considered this aspect, after all, she wasn't particularly knowledgeable about political matters.

But she supported Yan Lin's approach.

Therefore, the two handed the child over to Yan Zhouzhen and Wang Cuier, and went directly to a very secluded cave to put all the supplies inside.

At this time, Ling Junye destroyed a gang.

Yan Lin had an idea, so he put all the weapons on a cruise ship in the port and then called the military region.

When the Haicheng Military Region discovered such a huge quantity of weapons, they were completely stunned.

This incident shocked the entire military region.

Upon hearing this, Lü Liang and the others rushed to Haicheng. When they saw the weapons, they all cast admiring glances at Yan Lin.

Not bad, not bad.

Yan Lin is practically a lucky charm for the military region.

He always manages to make a huge impact on people.

This time, due to the large quantity and the sophistication of the weapons handed over, the leadership decided to directly appoint Yan Lin to a major military region and award him a first-class merit.

Yan Lin accepted the medal, but did not want to go to the major military region for the time being.

He still has a major case to solve: if he leaves Haicheng, his wife and children will be in danger.

At the same time, Xu Manzhi hid all the gold and silver treasures she had previously obtained from the Jiang family, bandits, and others.

It just so happens that the reform and opening up policy has been implemented, and she will find an opportunity to make all these things public.

She and her child will never have to worry again.

Three days passed quickly. When she took out the last batch of important medicinal herbs and ores and tried to go back in, she found that she was completely disconnected from the space.

The space is closed.

Her days of having a cheat code are over.

The calm and uneventful years passed in the blink of an eye, lasting for half a year.

Xu Manzhi held the last Face-Changing Pill in her hand.

She was debating whether or not to eat it.

The last time she took it was before Ye Qiqi was killed. Her effects were about to expire, and she hadn't fully absorbed the energy yet. Her mind was a complete mess. Hei Hei directly controlled her body and made her take it.

Originally, Heihei exchanged this item with the system.

It is divided into two levels.

The first type, like the one Ye Qiqi took, can keep one's appearance unchanged for three years.

The second type is like what she ate. The first pill can change one's appearance for six years, but the second pill can only last for one month. One must take a third strengthening pill to make it last for ten years.

Once she takes it, she'll have to live with this delicate, pretty face for ten years.

Although she didn't think much of it, every time Zou Xiaozhou and Dai Chunying met her, they always seemed to want to get close but didn't dare to approach, always keeping a distance, which made her feel a little regretful.

She still wants to use her own face again.

However, this issue didn't linger for long. That evening, Yan Lin returned to Lin Garden with a look of excitement. After searching around, he carefully led her into the house.

He lowered his voice and said, "The crabapple blossom iron plate is a key. It has a coating on it, and under the light, you can see that the crabapple blossom is full of holes."

This matter had already been discovered. He secretly instructed Zou Xiaozhou and several trusted confidants to search for objects with begonia patterns throughout the process, and finally found a clue in a vegetable garden in the military region.

"Did you go and check?" Xu Manzhi asked excitedly.

"Don't worry, now that we've made some progress, once we decipher that string of numbers, catching this bastard will be quick."

Yan Lin was full of confidence.
