Chapter 70 ...
"Admit it! You're a fickle, bad man!"
"No……"
"How could you be so cruel as to abandon your wife who has shared so much hardship with you... Waaah!"
"you……"
"You have no idea how much it hurts me to see you and them all lovey-dovey every day!" The doctor exaggeratedly grabbed his collar, as if to show how much pain he was in.
The director's forehead veins were throbbing, so was this doctor here specifically to show off his vocabulary?
Enough is enough! There's no need to endure it any longer!
"What are you trying to do! Stop messing around!"
"I didn't! It was clearly you! I've been holding back! I've been pretending to be stupid and not knowing anything, but what about you? I'm not really stupid, it's just that you didn't want me to know, so I pretended not to know! But now I can't take it anymore! I realize I can't stand you in this world..." As he spoke, the director suddenly noticed that the doctor's voice was choked up.
But the doctor quickly added, "I can't take it anymore. The person I'm closest to in this world... is you. We've known each other for a very, very long time, so... can you please stop hiding it from me?"
The director looked at the doctor in silence for a long time before letting out a soft sigh. "I haven't been hiding anything from you. I just woke up myself..."
A cold laugh escaped the doctor's lips. "You ordered these children to be killed, didn't you?"
The director remained calm, intending to brush it off, "What are you talking about? If I treated them like that, we would have fallen out long ago."
"Nonsense! I know perfectly well that no matter how you treat those kids, they will always trust you. I have a very good eye for people, otherwise I wouldn't have let them stay by your side! Nor would I have advised my assistant to lower her guard."
After saying this, the doctor slowly raised his head and said, "I don't care whether you've cursed them or they've been captivated by your personal charm. All I care about is that you won't get into trouble."
"..." I didn't expect the doctor to be so perceptive, so what exactly triggered him to say such a long sentence?
"All their actions are for the protection of ordinary people in this world. Neither the current Holy Son, nor Hongji, nor Shaoji would do such a thing. To put it bluntly, they only care about what they care about, and ordinary people are clearly not among them. Only you, Director, only you would go to great lengths and exhaust your efforts to plan for these ordinary people."
"..." The director was speechless for a moment, not expecting the doctor to have guessed so accurately by accident. This was not at his behest; it was simply that they were "me," and their actions were all in accordance with his will.
“I didn’t realize it before, but I’ve spent over a decade in my dreams, existing as a ghost throughout. Returning to reality, I truly feel that everything in this world is fake, except for you, who makes me feel real. So, please don’t die, okay? If you die, this world is doomed. You…”
That's why he was so determined to come back; he felt it was unreal.
He wanted to grab onto something, and the only thing he could do was grab onto the director so he wouldn't sink.
All his rambling was simply a manifestation of his insecurity.
As I mentioned before, he didn't take the world seriously when he was a child; he treated it more like a game. It wasn't until he met the director that he felt the whole world finally settled down.
"Wait a minute..." the director interrupted the doctor's rambling. "Who told you I was going to die?" The director had two big question marks on his head.
The doctor paused, "Huh?"
"Who told you I was going to die?" the director repeated helplessly.
"You won't die?"
"You want me dead?"
"No, no, no, no..."
Upon hearing this, the director felt that the doctor had finally broken free from that strange state.
The doctor quickly explained the whole story, and the director pondered for a while.
"You mean the purpose of Nangong Qi's system isn't to change the protagonists' tragic experiences, but to disrupt the plot, destabilize the world, and ultimately devour it?"
"That's how I understand it. I thought you knew, Director, which is why you gave up resisting and were prepared to sacrifice yourself to save the world," the doctor muttered.
"How could that be?" The director smiled. "I can't bear to leave this world, and I can't bear to leave you all."
The doctor sniffed twice. "Then it's settled. You have to live well. This world is waiting for you to save it."
Despite saying that, the director was still quite uneasy. That system definitely had problems; it was very likely an outsider trying to devour this world. So… what about his system?
Moreover, even when he learned that his world had been written into a novel, he didn't react much because his alternate identity hadn't been discovered. Instead, he appeared before the readers as an independent person, so he was more inclined to believe that he had been observed by a different dimension of the world.
Perhaps his system is even more advanced and can fool that world.
But now it seems that this plot is still somewhat useful; otherwise, the so-called system wouldn't have gone to such lengths to sabotage it.
Therefore, that system actually has no physical form; it possesses the body of a person from another world, a higher dimension.
It's not necessarily that there's no physical entity, it's just inconvenient; it's still possible to move around.
The doctor quickly remembered something else, "Oh right, about my dream..."
"Alright, you should be relieved to see that I'm alright. You can go now."
Wait, I haven't told you about my dream yet...
"Honestly, after flirting for so long, now you're thinking of leaving?" Jie Mao slowly walked out.
The director said helplessly, "The more important reason I'm not going with you is him."
"Nonsense! I belong to Lady Shao Ji, don't slander me!" Jie Mao was about to jump up.
The director... the director feels mentally exhausted, is that what he meant?
Jie Mao was actually there before the doctor came in; he just thought he could get some information from their conversation, so he didn't interrupt them. Little did he expect this.
It turns out they don't just prey on children, they also prey on people around them.
As expected of someone who harbors disloyalty towards Lady Shao Ji, they were swayed after just a few words.
"I won't let you go if you put them down," Jie Mao said expressionlessly, then stretched out a hand to block them from two meters away.
"Really?" The doctor tentatively took a step outside but received no response.
Take another step, no response?
Just one more step... one more step... and I'm at the door.
The director, utterly despondent, asked, "Aren't you going to stop me?"
"Lady Shao Ji said I couldn't touch a hair on your head, and I obeyed." The subtext is that I don't care about anything else.
I told you, how do you know if I laid a hand on them or not? I couldn't stop them.
The doctor, realizing what was happening, grabbed the director and ran away immediately.
The cat muttered to itself, "Keeping you alive is just asking for trouble. If it weren't for Lady Shao Ji saying I couldn't touch you, I would have killed you long ago."
Suddenly, the cat saw the doctor return, and it was about to explode with rage!
"Just because I'm not showing my teeth doesn't mean I'm a pushover! It means I don't exist!" The cat was so angry it gritted its teeth.
"Excuse me, thank you. If you don't let me, I'll just leave him here." The doctor weighed the director he was carrying in his arms.
The cat was grinding its teeth to pieces, but it stubbornly refused to move. The doctor sighed, as if he were tolerating a disobedient child.
Walk past the cat.
Without the slightest pause.
As the doctor walked, he said, "Director, do you know why I don't believe you've completely severed ties with them?"
Then, without waiting for the director's reply, he continued, "This is a new building by Shao Ji, but look, there's a hidden door here. Just like the director, all your offices should have hidden doors in similar locations."
The doctor fumbled around for a while, then with a click, opened a door that was barely noticeable. He darted inside, his entire body turning into liquid, and dragged the director along at high speed.
The director was still somewhat confused, belatedly realizing that the doctor's supernatural abilities seemed to have improved.
It can actually make the venom move without harming the human body.
The cat was still sitting there, motionless, digesting the fact that he didn't know about the secret door to Lady Shaoji's room, but the doctor did.
A cacophony of footsteps sounded outside. "Quick! I see them here!"
Soon someone knocked on the door, and a guard peeked in and asked, "Lord Cat, have you seen anyone suspicious?"
This cat has lost count of how many times it's gotten angry today. No wonder, no wonder it came back. It turns out it had nowhere else to go. Now it really has become an "accomplice" in protecting them.
"No! Go look somewhere else." After they left, the cat angrily slammed the door shut. Don't come back!
The director never expected that he would end up digging his own grave. He quickly made it outside after passing through the long tunnel.

"Sister, where is this?" Han Baowang wandered around in confusion.
"This is another world."
"Another world?" King Hanbao still didn't understand.

On the other side, Aji looked at the rapidly moving coordinates and smiled, "Finally couldn't resist taking action?"
He immediately ordered those around him to prepare for action.
Other accounts also began to take action one after another, and a quiet campaign was about to begin.
Nangong Qi was still on her way when suddenly, "Host, please proceed to this destination! Failure to arrive on time will result in immediate electric shock."
The director was still vomiting on the other side, while the doctor watched with schadenfreude.
"Tsk tsk tsk, Director, your health isn't good! You threw up after just a short while."
"Nonsense! You try lying in bed for three months and see! Ugh—"
The doctor was taken aback by these words. Yes, their bodies had actually been lying down for three months in reality, so how come he didn't feel anything at all?
Forget it, if I can't figure it out, I won't think about it anymore.
"Director, what are we going to do now that we're out here? Go back to base and seize power?"
The director rolled his eyes. "No, we're going to cause trouble for someone else."
Looking for trouble with someone? Whose?
