At the Triangle Wharf, a man and a woman were slurping cold noodles together, a picture of peaceful contentment.
So the gun was just sitting there openly on the table that when the police kicked down the door, they didn't even need to make up a reason; they simply arrested the two men on charges of illegally possessing firearms.
Gu Changge was surprised that the police would suddenly show up at her door; this was illogical. She grabbed Yunfan, who was standing next to her, and tried to roll into the space. But just as Gu Changge pressed the necklace on her chest, the national flag badge on the police officer's chest lit up.
Immediately afterwards, Gu Changge felt a force blocking her communication with the necklace. Not only did she fail to enter the space, but she also fell face-first into the mud with Yunfan.
Shi Yin, who was dozing on the boat, opened her eyes and suddenly disappeared from the spot.
Lin Beiyue and Nan Zhu, who were urgently summoned, were speechless.
Boss, slow down!
Gu Changge and Yun Fan were tied to the sofa, staring at each other blankly. Yun Fan was just a hacker who hadn't been reborn, and he was just being held captive like this, looking at Gu Changge with a completely bewildered expression on his face.
Didn't you say you'd protect me?
Gu Changge was also dumbfounded and had no idea what was going on until Shi Yin entered the room, at which point Gu Changge suddenly realized what was happening.
"Shi Yin! You've been reborn too!" Gu Changge felt the handcuffs digging painfully into her wrists and became even more furious: "You were reborn before me and built up your power so quickly!"
"This is clearly a country." Shi Yin innocently pointed to the badges on the police officers and her own uniform: "This is clearly a military uniform, isn't it?"
"How could that be! How could the country believe you!" Gu Changge exclaimed in disbelief.
Shi Yin: "Well, if that's how you think, there's nothing I can do about it."
Gu Changge: "..."
What kind of scumbag quotes are these?!
"Where is my uncle? What have you done to him?" Gu Changge knew that being anxious would be useless, so she could only calm herself down first: "If you dare to touch my uncle, I'll fight you to the death."
The surrounding police officers fell silent. Everyone looked at Gu Changge as if he were an idiot, as if he had said something outrageous that was hard to believe.
Gu Changge also sensed something was wrong, but this was just too outrageous.
How could the government possibly believe such an absurd claim? And how could Shion possibly mobilize the army? On what grounds?
"Want to fight me?" Shi Yin casually flicked her cloak and tapped her cane on the ground, invigorating everyone.
"What do you have to fight me with?" Shi Yin stepped forward, placing one foot on the edge of the sofa, getting close to Gu Changge, and lightly lifting Gu Changge's chin with her cane: "With your life?"
"Or, will you use your space, which is so vulnerable in front of me?" He lowered his cane, picking up Gu Changge's necklace.
Gu Changge's heart skipped a beat, and her expression changed instantly.
Why did Tokine know that the space was this necklace?
After gaining access to her spatial dimension, Gu Changge became extremely cautious, using jade bracelets, jade pendants, earrings, and a series of other accessories as a smokescreen. Before she died, she destroyed the necklace, so Shi Yin shouldn't have known that the necklace was part of her spatial dimension.
However, isn't this pose a bit too suggestive...?
Gu Changge blinked. Her chin, along with the necklace, was still resting on the handle of her cane. Shi Yin was standing on the sofa, very close to her.
Suddenly, a sly glint flashed in Gu Changge's eyes. He leaned forward and pressed his lips against hers.
Although I can't physically attack you, I'll mentally attack you and disgust you! I'll make you feel disgusted for the rest of your life!
However, halfway through, his chin was pinched by Shi Yin.
The sneak attack failed.
Everyone stared in disbelief at the woman who was sticking her mouth out at their boss. They never expected Gu Changge to be so bold as to try to kiss their boss right away!
"You're quick-witted." Shi Yin pinched Gu Changge's chin, her thumb touching Gu Changge's lips. Despite the ambiguous atmosphere, the coldness in Shi Yin's eyes seemed to freeze Gu Changge to death.
Gu Changge shivered and felt a little regretful. How could Shi Yin react at such close range? Why couldn't he beat Shi Yin even after being reborn? He couldn't even annoy Shi Yin!
God, you're being unfair!
“The way you were captured is different, and your response is different too. You're quick-witted.” Shi Yin raised an eyebrow, her eyes showing no emotion. “Do I need to take the initiative?”
Gu Changge: "!?"
"There's absolutely no need for that!" Gu Changge's hair stood on end when she heard that.
This thing is disgusting to the person who gets passive!
She attacked Shi Yin to annoy her. Now that everyone has calmed down, if Shi Yin were to do the same to her, she would be the one who gets annoyed!
Help!
"Forget it, I'm not here to threaten you. Your uncle should be drinking tea in the central government." Shi Yin released Gu Changge's chin and stood up: "Smuggling weapons overseas, you guys really know how to torture people."
"Isn't this for the apocalypse..." Gu Changge said, sounding unsure of himself.
"Well, that's why I didn't punish him." Shi Yin shrugged indifferently: "In that case, join the nation, fight against the apocalypse together, and restore the world before the apocalypse."
"Fight against the apocalypse and restore the world to its former state?" Gu Changge exclaimed, "Do you know what you're saying?"
Shi Yin: "Hmm?"
“You and I lived together in the apocalypse. Although we weren’t comrades, you should understand how cruel the apocalypse is, right?” Gu Changge earnestly advised, “The collapsed order, the greedy desires and the hearts of men—you actually want to lead so many people to fight against the apocalypse? Do you know how many ordinary people you’re saving by helping the country…”
"Enough with the nonsense, why are you making such a fuss?" Shi Yin interrupted Gu Changge impatiently. "What business is it of yours whether I'm daydreaming or not? It's like you have a choice."
Gu Changge: "..."
I'm so angry! What is this person so arrogant about?!
Since you've been reborn, doesn't that mean you died too? I just died a little earlier than you, so what!
How can there be a hierarchy of contempt here?
“You should have awakened a superpower by now, it’s called Intensification, right? It can temporarily enhance human functions and the strength of superpowers, equivalent to three boosters,” Shi Yin said.
"What is a enhancer?" Gu Changge was taken aback when he heard the unfamiliar term.
“It’s just…” Shi Yin thought for a moment, “You’ll find out when you turn back. It’s normal that you won’t know since you died young.”
What do you mean I died young?
Gu Changge felt that she and Shi Yin were incompatible, and she would get angry after saying just a few words.
"How did you know I'd awakened a superpower?" Gu Changge asked a practical question.
“Otherwise, why would this kid be able to keep the post up for so long? Did you enhance his hacking skills and brain?” Shi Yin ruffled Yun Fan’s head, and his fluffy bowl cut immediately bristled: “Do you really think the country is just sitting around doing nothing? This kid is gold, but the country is a gold mine, full of gold everywhere.”
"Can I refuse to cooperate with you?" Gu Changge asked.
“Okay.” Shi Yin nodded. Before Gu Changge could be happy, Shi Yin continued, “After the apocalypse, each of you will be given three days’ worth of supplies to leave the country. The country will refuse all support. You will have to figure out how to survive on your own.”
Gu Changge: "..."
How is this different from a threat?
Three days' worth of supplies, and we can't use government-supplied items. How can we survive? Hunting, you think?
"Gold will always shine," Shi Yin said slowly. "Unfortunately, you're a close friend."
Gu Changge: "?"
Did this guy just tell a joke?
"Then, how can I help you?" Gu Changge, ever flexible, changed the subject: "Cooperation is no problem, but I want better treatment."
"Cooperation?" Shi Yin's lips finally curved into a slight smile: "I think you've misunderstood something."
"You have no leverage to cooperate; you only have one choice: to obey."
