Chapter 33 [Scene 17] Come, take my hand, and let’s go…

——The structure here is exactly the same as that of their dormitory in the company!

Same ring shape, same number of rooms...

Then the wall under her feet should be the one she had suspected when she was in the company before!

"Host, this...!" The system also discovered it and began to scream in surprise.

He Yuezhe used the force to jump down, and kicked open the door of the room closest to the metal pillar!

The scent of bright red and snow-white cream hits you in the face!

What follows is the familiar smell of the affordable nutrient solution!

He Yuezhe covered his mouth and nose and closed the door again.

"It's exactly the same..." she murmured.

Turning his head again, he looked at the sky-reaching metal cylinder on the side, and saw several extremely subtle cracks faintly visible on it!

He Yuezhe walked over and touched the gap with his hand.

"Is this a door?"

[Ding Dong~ Congratulations! You've triggered a plot point: Game? Reality?!]

“Boom boom…”!!!

"Squeak."

The gap vibrated violently and lifted up, and a piece of paper slowly fell into He Yuezhe's hand!

——[NPC Work Manual]

[Rule 1: Meet at the entrance to the pagoda complex at 9:00 AM every day. Do not be late.]

[Article 2: Your job is solely to transport players to their respective spawn points. Do not overstep this line.]

[Article 3: Take the nutrient solution before and after work to switch your consciousness. Do not switch.]

Article 4

Article 5

…

He Yuezhe raised his eyes and looked inside the door.

Nutrient solution, a wide variety of nutrient solutions, exactly the same as the one the staff member handed to him!

If I hadn't been careful and secretly spit out the nutrient solution...

I'm afraid she is now the same as these NPCs?

So, it was just as she thought, that this whole time, it was all the fault of the game maker!?

It was he who created the cycle, it was he who trapped so many people...

He even wanted to erase the self-awareness of the players who noticed this!?

Moreover, all the players have never left the game from the beginning to the end! ?

Even the so-called exiting the game and returning to reality was just arriving here, a fabricated false reality!?

And setting all of these as plot points is really bad taste...

...But, what exactly does he want to do?

After all, He Yuezhe had seen this boring operation 4,678 times.

I just don’t know what the purpose of these people’s “big business” was before it was “strangled” halfway by her?

Oh my, she is so curious.

^

"Host, this way!" the system reminded.

He Yuezhe had just walked out of the tower group.

She was just about to look for the area with violent energy fluctuations as mentioned by the system, when she was blown aside by a cannonball that hit her in front of her!

"Host, the route has been planned! It can effectively avoid several small battlefields near the route!" As soon as the system finished speaking, a map appeared out of thin air in front of He Yuezhe.

"You're quite attentive, aren't you?"

Because of He Yuezhe's special skill: immortality, even if she was hit by a cannonball at close range, her health points did not decrease too much.

She rubbed her arm, which was in pain from hitting the gold-inlaid jade door, stood up again and walked along the route to her destination.

"How can you call this attentiveness! This is clearly my sincere love for you—" the system cried, giving He Yuezhe a headache.

[You have new news!]

Um?

This is the prompt message when the Ribbon system receives the message, which should be "weave" or "balloon".

He Yuezhe managed to calm the system down and clicked on the ribbon system that was moving at high speed in her interface.

[Chat with "Balloon"]

"Are you out yet? Can you help me?"

--"balloon"

"Just came out."

——"Hummingbird"

"I'm going to do something big. If anything goes wrong, remember to find me underground in the towers. I'll send you a signal."

"That's it. Anyway, take care of yourself!"

--"balloon"

"Okay, keep going!"

——"Hummingbird"

[You have been blocked by the other party!]

He Yuezhe: ...?

Her eyebrows twitched, she closed the chat interface, and without stopping, she ran quickly towards her destination.

And just where she didn't notice, on the world's public screen, system prompts about the small battlefield were flashing rapidly.

There was also a name that flashed by, a name that she should have been very familiar with—

[World Announcement: Player "Wei" has gone on a killing spree!]

^

"Host, the mission target suddenly went on strike!" the system shouted.

"...Didn't I ask you to show me the way?"

He Yuezhe was speechless. She looked at the map which showed "arrived near the destination", but the picture was full of broken walls and traces of artillery fire.

"Besides, what does his 'strike' have to do with me?"

The system retorted, "Host, if you look for it carefully, you will definitely be able to find it! But if the target of the mission goes on strike, we will not be able to complete the mission!"

"Oh." He Yuezhe replied with a smile, continuously scanning with the energy detector provided by the system. "Then it can't be completed. Don't you want to stay in this world with me for a while longer?"

"Host, please, if you fail to complete the mission and have no energy source, I will be fired soon!" The system's crying voice sounded very fake, so He Yuezhe ignored it for a while.

Although he expressed to the system the attitude that "it doesn't matter whether the task is completed or not", He Yuezhe still quietly sent a message to Yuan Yang.

As for how He Yuezhe found Yuan Yang's contact information in the first place...

That was of course the reward she received from completing the "Help Weave" mission earlier.

An opportunity to make a wish to the organization.

However, it was only after this that He Yuezhe found out that Yuan Yang had joined the "evil forces" earlier than himself.

[Chatting with “strangers”]

"?"

--anonymous

"."

--"stranger"

[You have new news!]

He Yuezhe was just wondering what this independent "." meant when a new unread message popped up on the interface.

[Chat with "Colorful World"]

"He's on strike!"

——"Colorful World"

"Then hurry up and urge him. I sent him a message and he only replied with a period."

——"Hummingbird"

“…”

"receive."

"receive!!!"

——"Colorful World"

He is also in the "evil forces" and knows his own code name.

This is also because the ribbon system provides great convenience for players who join the "evil forces", so players who want to communicate only need to enter their own code name and then enter the other party's code name to establish a connection.

Therefore, since "Colorful World" can send messages to myself, I think it has guessed that my code name is the same as the name of the previous game.

…

"10, 0.1…9."

He Yuezhe searched around the destination, but found that the energy fluctuation was not even over 10.

"Hey, hey!" A girl's cry suddenly came from the distance, "Hey! Why is there still a trap?"

"Host! It appears! The one with the most violent energy fluctuations!" The system shouted excitedly the moment He Yuezhe's gaze turned to the girl.

"Hello, do you need help?" He Yuezhe ran over quickly and asked softly.

When the girl heard this, she nodded quickly.

She placed her hand, which was raised in the air, on He Yuezhe's arm, and with just one effort she was pulled out of the pit!

The girl ignored her already torn shoes, socks and clothes, took out a steamed bun from her cross-body bag and stuffed it into He Yuezhe's arms.

"Little sister, you must be starving, right?"

"I didn't expect there was someone here. Now you owe me a life." A big smile gradually appeared on the girl's dirty face.

"Eat quickly," she urged when she saw He Yuezhe didn't move, "If it gets dirty, you won't be able to eat it. This cannon fodder is full of poison!"

"Poison?" He Yuezhe finally came to his senses.

Because, they are so similar!

Movement, demeanor, and appearance...

Even though she looks a lot younger, she still looks very similar, like the Granny Chen she met when she first entered the game.

"Yeah, I don't know where they came from, but they're dropping bombs everywhere, but they're not killing anyone."

The girl wiped her hands, took out a deflated bottle of water from her bag and took a small sip.

"Alas, it turned out later that they were actually putting poison in there! The kind that's addictive and can kill people!"

"It was a scary time. The hospital called me every day asking me to help."

"Look, these were scratched by those patients at that time, but fortunately I'm fine." The girl stretched out her arm for He Yuezhe to see.

"Oh, let's not talk about this anymore. I don't want to leave you with a bad impression. The kingdom is actually very good to everyone."

"Sister, I'm not afraid." He Yuezhe shook his head and followed the girl walking in a certain direction.

"elder sister……?"

"Is this true?"

The girl turned around, and although she believed him in her words, she still blushed and touched He Yuezhe's shoulder to comfort him: "By the way, you have to call me 'Grandma' from now on, okay?"

ah……

He Yuezhe showed a puzzled expression: "Why? You look so young."

"You're stupid! If you don't do this, everyone will surround me and give me gifts when I go shopping!"

The girl pouted, and although her words were a bit arrogant, He Yuezhe had the urge to believe her: "...I don't want this."

"Oh." He Yuezhe pretended to understand and nodded, "Then, mother-in-law."

"That's right, that's it!" The girl snapped her fingers lightly with her right hand, then grabbed He Yuezhe's wrist.

"Okay, let's go! Those 'troublemakers' in the concentration camp are still waiting for me to come back and cook."

The two of them ran quickly through the ruins.

"Trickster, trickster!?"

"Oh, it's just a nickname. Don't worry. They, ahem, they're pretty nice."

"……Really?"

"How could I lie to you! Of course it's true."

"Oh, oh, okay."

^

Walking on the road.

The girl suddenly began to ask her questions cautiously, as if she really treated her as a child, afraid that she would suddenly burst into tears for some reason.

"They're really amazing then." The girl held a piece of grass in her mouth. "Do you want to be like them in the future?"

Just now, He Yuezhe told the girl the story of "her parents' battle against the mutant penguins" in a fragmented manner.

Under the girl's half-believing and half-doubting "questioning", she finally "couldn't help" crying.

"Wuuuuu, I don't want to die, wuuuuuu..." He Yuezhe covered his face and began to cry.

The girl froze in her tracks when she heard this. She stared at He Yuezhe with wide eyes, "Ah, that's not what I meant!"

“Wuwuwuwuwuwu, I don’t care, wuwuwuwuwuwuwu…” He Yuezhe was still crying, and her tears were getting more and more heartbreaking.

"Host, this is too fake! We should throw pebbles at her!" The system continued to give its advice.

Although He Yuezhe came up with the idea of ​​"pretending to cry" first, it was this evil system that forced her to carry it out.

"Why don't you first explain to me why I want to save a living person?"

Yuan Yang was fine, but now someone else had appeared, and she really couldn't stand it anymore——

It's impossible to let her be physically liberated, right?!

He is clearly an electronic soul-savior!!!

"Uh...that, host, actually you are saving her soul." The system spoke awkwardly after hearing He Yuezhe's sneer.

"You mean, even if I save these irrelevant people, they won't die, but will just become vegetables?" He Yuezhe continued.

"That's about right. Because the souls that need salvation are those with unfulfilled wishes. So as long as the wish is fulfilled, the soul will voluntarily leave the body, and the life or death of the deceased won't be that important."

"...What about those who have already passed away? Can they be liberated?"

The system was silent for a moment, then said, "Yes, but it will be more difficult."

"Okay, okay, I'll give you another steamed bun. Eat it secretly and don't tell anyone else."

The warmth that the girl stuffed into He Yuezhe's arms diverted her attention back.

He Yuezhe took this opportunity to gradually stop crying, loosened her hands that were covering her face, and murmured, "Thank you, thank you, mother-in-law."

"Good boy." The girl patted He Yuezhe's shoulder.

"By the way, host, the energy waves from this energy source are quite special. The only tip I can give you is to never reveal your player identity."

"Come, hold my hand and let's go." The girl stretched out her hand to her.

He Yuezhe put his hand on it.

The palms of the girl's hands were a little rough, but still very soft, as if only the superficial layer of skin was rough.

[Ding Dong~ Detected that you have completed the first stage of the side quest: All My Things, Dedicated to You. The second stage of the side quest: All My Things, Dedicated to You has been automatically triggered for you!]

I didn't expect that after all these twists and turns, you'd end up back near Kangsu.

"Here, you met the man who warned you and Xiaoying earlier."

"You agreed to the request of the plot character Xiaoying, and Kangsu's defense shield was successfully deployed.]

"Now that you have a concentration camp to stay in, can you meet Xiaoying again?"

"What kind of story will happen between you and this strange woman?"

[Note: In the second stage of All My Dedicated to You, there are important plot points that can be discovered, leading to different endings for this branch.]

"I was telling you, how could you possibly forget who I am?" The girl walking next to him suddenly spoke.

She turned around, grabbed He Yuezhe's arms tightly with both hands, and threw him in front of her!

"Why did you agree to it? Why did you not care about her life or death?! Why did you let her selflessly dedicate herself to everyone like this?!!"

The girl was very strong, and He Yuezhe found that he could hardly break free from her!

"...What on earth could make a child...become the %#*% of an entire kingdom?!"

"...What could have caused a child to commit suicide...in public?"

The child...committed suicide...?!

“Ha…it’s me…”
