Chapter 186 Prediction

With a sharp look from An Zhi, Li Yun quickly stopped complaining. After all, now was not the time to revise the text. He turned his attention back to the paper: "The alliance is not indestructible, so we must remain vigilant and avoid encountering danger from chosen ones from other countries."

Yin Zhu nodded. That made perfect sense.

After the think tank members had been talking non-stop, the meeting room fell silent, and almost everyone turned their attention to Yin Zhu.

Yin Zhu yawned: "There are too many to remember."

An Zhi:......

"So could you give me a copy? I'll take a look at it before I go to sleep."

This was Yin Zhu's real goal. Since she had a poor memory, she came up with a compromise: "If I look at it a few more times, maybe I can remember it." The more practice questions she did, the more likely she was to retain some impression.

"There's no point in memorizing these things by rote," Xia Qingkong saw through it at a glance.

“This content was originally supposed to be condensed into a general outline after our discussion, and then we would tell you on the last day. Remember as much as you can,” An Zhi changed the subject. “Watching us argue is a bit boring, isn’t it?”

Suddenly remembering something, Yin Zhu put her hands together and smiled at everyone, saying, "By the way, besides these, do you have any questions about the Sin City dungeon? Just so you know, I can't reveal what I was talking about with Hirano Shan."

Yin Zhu blinked, appearing harmless.

The think tank does have a few questions. Although the Grand Theft Auto dungeon has been closed, many things in it are still valuable for the think tank in predicting future dungeons, so the more they know, the better.

"It's time for my favorite part, the debriefing session," Zhang Baye joked, sitting by the door, as the scene seemed familiar.

The last time was right after the "Green Home" instance ended, when Yin Zhu first came to the think tank base. At that time, both sides were very wary of each other and had not fully trusted each other. Not only were their thinking quite different, but they were also very suspicious of each other.

Yin Zhu was unsure whether the think tank could trust the chosen one, and An Zhi was also unsure whether the chosen one could trust the think tank.

At that time, Yin Zhu was alone and helpless in the dungeon, relying entirely on his own brain and talent (although Yin Zhu did not realize the latter at the time). The think tank, which had lost its hints, could not communicate with the chosen one. Therefore, they could only observe the chosen one, who had an unusually rich inner world but was taciturn during the live stream.

That's how the two met for the first time.

However, after getting to know Yin Zhu better, An Zhi quickly realized that Yin Zhu was a bit of a show-off. He didn't talk much in the dungeon because it was his first time being the Chosen One, so he didn't dare to act recklessly in an unfamiliar environment.

By the time of the second instance, Yin Zhu was able to take advantage of the fact that the rules favored humans and was able to mess with the Mirror Ghost to her heart's content.

...Very good, very adaptable.

“Actually, I’m very curious about that pill, but you don’t seem to have seen it before.” Han Jiuying shrugged. “But it’s a good thing that you haven’t turned into an old man.”

"Hmm, a nursing home, is that right?"

Yin Zhu had a good impression of the area that had just ended, and she also roughly understood the function of the pills mentioned in the rules: "That should be a drug that can alleviate pollution, but it can also cause memory confusion."

"How did you know?" Di Jia asked, somewhat puzzled.

The think tank analyzed some live streams and came to similar conclusions, but still dared not say for sure why Yin Zhu could discover this point even though she hadn't watched other people's live streams.

Yin Zhu scratched his neck, a little embarrassed, and said, "They also emphasized taking the medicine when we were in the hospital. I shook Yan Zihan's medicine bottle at the time, and it felt full. She clearly showed a level of alertness that was beyond that of other elderly people, so I was able to tell what the variable was."

Speaking of this, Yin Zhu added a few more words: "The nursing home cafeteria should also add these pills, no matter which window you go to, so the rule should be considered a smokescreen."

After careful consideration, Yin Zhu overturned her previous statement: "The rules were set by the nursing home. For the elderly, forgetting the past is indeed a better outcome. So the rules can only be said to be for the good of the elderly, not a smokescreen, but a matter of perspective."

"So the main reason for suggesting that employees eat less food in the cafeteria is to prevent them from skipping work due to amnesia, right?" Li Yun tried to speak to Li Ge on his right in a low voice, but received no response.

More than that, Li Ge was concerned about something else: "Do you know? Mu Yunsheng can't live without amusement parks."

Li Ge spoke directly to Yin Zhu.

She was very curious about what Yin Zhu thought of this native who had once tricked her but later "supported" her through several amusement park rides.

However, the reflection of Yin Zhu in Li Ge's pupils seemed cold and emotionless: "I knew it. I knew Wei Chuxing wasn't a kind person. How could he let people leave after they'd had their fun? If he were really that honest, there wouldn't be so many fantasy visitors at the amusement park."

Don't you sympathize with Mu Yunsheng?

"Why should I sympathize? She tricked me, and I'm not going to hold it against her. I was just focused on clearing the game and didn't have time to pay attention to her. But I still remember this grudge." Yin Zhu revealed a sly smile.

“I suspect you may have misunderstood something. Her later gentleness towards me was only because I was useful. Wei Chuxing was much more useful than me, so the person she clung to at the beginning wasn't me, but Wei Chuxing.” Yin Zhu had already demonstrated this self-awareness in the haunted house. “I knew from the beginning that she left with Wei Chuxing, but what reason did I have to stop her? She pushed me, so I held a grudge.”

Yin Zhu actually had a vague understanding of Wei Chuxing's twisted hobbies.

When someone who was overjoyed, thinking they could finally escape hell, suddenly loses all hope for the future, that look of despair on the face of someone you hate is indeed somewhat irresistible.

Moreover, in Yin Zhu's mind, these indigenous people were unspeakably wiped out eight hundred years ago, so saving them would be a complete waste of time.

It's unspeakable and there's no salary, so why should Yin Zhu give up a normal 60-point clear and insist on working herself to death to try that damn 100-point perfect clear? If a perfect clear could directly eliminate the forbidden zone of Blue Star, Yin Zhu would be willing to give it a try. But now that she's given this paltry reward, is she afraid of living too long and insists on working herself to death to achieve a perfect clear?

Sometimes, laziness is a high quality of humankind and a stepping stone to human progress.
