After dinner, the broken humanoid robot was transported to the workshop at the base, and the girls gathered around curiously.

"How is it? Can it be fixed?"

Looking at the robot girl lying on the workbench in front of her, Shokuhou Misaki asked uneasily.

"Um……"

Fang Zheng stretched out his hand, and as he moved, he saw the robot girl's originally damaged limbs gradually recovering, but...

"interesting."

"interesting?"

"Yes, it's just a machine after all. Logically speaking, as long as I restore it, it should start. But even so, it still has no intention of starting. Of course, I think you all see the reason..."

As he spoke, Fang Zheng pointed at the hole in the robot girl's chest.

"Her energy core is damaged and cannot be repaired."

"Then we just need to change the core."

"No, no, no, that's not the question."

In response to Shokuhou Misaki's puzzled answer, Fang Zheng smiled and shook his finger.

"You know what? My time manipulation can restore everything, but the only exception is the soul. It's like if I cut a person into eight pieces, I can use the power of time to restore it, but I can't resurrect it."

"Wait... so what you mean is..."

Shokuhou Misaki was of course not stupid. After hearing this, she immediately understood Fang Zheng's idea.

"You mean, this child has a soul?"

"Yeah, so this is interesting isn't it?"

"It is very interesting indeed."

At this moment, Shokuhou Misaki looked at the mechanical girl with a playful look in her eyes. As the most powerful ruler of human mental and psychological aspects, she has always been interested in exploring the soul. But what Shokuhou Misaki did not expect was that a simple machine could actually have a soul.

"So what do we do now?"

"Ordinary energy replacement won't work, but if it's a power source with spiritual power, it should be fine... You can go and see if there's a similar gift."

"Do you want me to go?"

"Didn't you pick this up? Then you are naturally responsible for it."

"……All right."

Hearing Fang Zheng's answer, Shokuhou Misaki curled her lips speechlessly.

"Leave it to me."

She had nothing to do anyway, and Shokuhou Misaki had to admit that this mechanical girl did arouse her interest.

After handing the damaged mechanical girl over to Shokuhou Misaki to deal with, Fang Zheng left the base and went to the 54545 outer gate to attend the meeting of the "class rulers" - huh? Why, as the leader of the community, Fang Zheng rarely participates in the Gift Game?

Nonsense, that depends on who dares to invite him to participate in the gift game! !

When facing "Perseus", Fang Zheng directly summoned the God Seeds, which scared a large number of people to death. Then when Pest attacked, he summoned countless artifacts and scared a large number of people to death again. Since then, almost no one dared to invite Fang Zheng to participate in the Gift Game.

After all, if a monster can be easily killed by a five-digit demon king, wouldn’t it be like giving it away for free if anyone dared to invite him to participate in the game?

Of course, Fang Zheng didn't mind. After all, he was more interested in the world itself - as long as the box garden belonged to him, then everything in the box garden would belong to him, right?

However, this "class ruler" meeting was also quite troublesome. The reason was simple. After all, each area was attacked by the demon king at the same time. Anyone who was not a fool would find the problem. In order to discuss the next countermeasures, the class rulers of the three areas were gathered together for discussion. Since Fang Zheng had fought against the opponent head-on, he was invited to attend the meeting to discuss the situation.

Of course, for Fang Zheng, he still prefers shopping.

“Actually, I quite like the style of the North District.”

After walking out of the realm gate and looking at the street in front of him, Fang Zheng couldn't help but sigh. Each area has different customs and folkways, so the streets are also different. For example, the South District feels like the forest world where elves live, with all kinds of forest plants and fantasy beasts everywhere. Kasugabe Yao likes to go there very much.

The North District felt darker, a bit like Halloween, but Fang Zheng didn't dislike this feeling, and the yellow lights looked warm and comfortable. Of course, the main reason was that there were many ghosts and demons living in the North District, so they chose to show their regional characteristics in this way.

However, compared with before, the streets now seem to be filled with a slightly tense atmosphere, which gives people a slightly unpleasant feeling compared with before.

“It felt like everyone was on edge.”

"Maybe it's because of the convening."

Fang Zheng didn't care about Maple's sigh.

"After all, this is an important meeting where all the rulers of all classes gather together, so security must be done well... Well, as usual, you guys go around and have fun, I'll go to the palace to say hello to Sandra first."

"Okay, leave it to me, Mr. Fang Zheng."

Hearing Fang Zheng's order, Kuroyukihime smiled slightly, then turned around and left with the others. Fang Zheng and Homura Akemi went to the palace of "Salamander" together, and then met the leader of "Salamander", Sandra.

"Hey, Sandra, long time no see."

"Mr. Fang Zheng."

Sandra, who was sitting on the throne, saw Fang Zheng and her eyes lit up immediately. She stood up happily and ran over.

"It's been a while. I heard that you were attacked by the demon king in the South District. I was very worried."

"What will happen if I'm here... Well, your strength has improved a lot."

Although Sandora still looked like a little girl of eleven or twelve years old, Fang Zheng could feel that her spirit had become stronger than when they first met. Speaking of which, the North District was also attacked by the Demon King at that time. Since Salamander did not seek support from him, it meant that Sandora had taken responsibility very well.

"It seems that the Demon King suffered a lot at your hands last time. Did you handle it?"

"Um."

Hearing Fang Zheng's question, Sandra smiled hard and nodded.

"After the incident with the Black Death Demon King, I also conducted a lot of training and planning for the Demon King's next attack. After all, I can't trouble you, Mr. Fang Zheng, every time. So I'm also thinking about what methods I should use to resist or protect everyone if the Demon King attacks again. After all, this is the responsibility of the leader of the community..."

At this point, Sandra's expression became a little depressed.

"...But, people still don't trust me that much, and this incident is also..."

"event?"

Hearing this, Fang Zheng raised his eyebrows.

"I felt that the security on the streets was tighter than before, but I thought it was because of the convocation meeting."

"That's one of the reasons, but the main reason is... the disappearance of the gods."

"God disappeared?"

Hearing this, Fang Zheng and Homura Akemi both showed curiosity, and Sandra nodded.

"Yes, the North District is a gathering place for all kinds of Shura demons, so it's not surprising that there are disappearances. In fact, we also have an agency that specializes in dealing with disappearances, but this time the situation is a little unusual... Those who disappeared are all young children."

"God is hiding..."

Fang Zheng touched his chin and narrowed his eyes. The so-called "Kamikakushi" means "hidden by God". This kind of incident is quite common in Japan. Nowadays, Japan still often refers to many incidents of missing and disappearing as "Kamikakushi incidents".

The same was true for Tianshen Elementary School in the love world that Fang Zheng and his friends had visited. Those students who were swallowed up by Tianshen Elementary School were basically reported by the media as "disappearing".

"Is this situation unusual?"

"Yes, the other party also left a very strange message at the scene of the disappearance. It was a letter written in Chinese characters."

"Chinese character?"

Hearing this, Fang Zheng was stunned for a moment.

"What's it about?"

"Well... they say 'idle', 'wasting time', 'accomplishing nothing'... and they also leave the word 'muddled' outside."

“…This girl really understands.”

"?"

"No, nothing, I just think this incident is quite interesting."

As he spoke, Fang Zheng's eyes showed excitement. In fact, this is a common theme that all Chinese people can understand. No matter whether it is "idling around", "wasting time" or "accomplishing nothing", it all comes down to "muddling through life".

But if you are not Chinese, you probably won't be able to instantly connect the word "混" with these three idioms like Fang Zheng did. This is the case with Sandra. She obviously understands the meaning of these three idioms, but doesn't understand what relationship they have with the word "混".

In other words, was this incident caused by a Chinese monster?

Fang Zheng knew that there were Shuras and Buddhas from various worlds in the small garden world, so it was not surprising that there were Chinese monsters. However, perhaps because of his class, he had basically never encountered one. But now a monster that clearly looked like it came from Chinese mythology appeared, and it was impossible for him not to care.

But then again, are there such monsters in Chinese mythology and legends that specialize in taking away children?

Of course there are. Fang Zheng remembered that in Liao Zhai or Journey to the West, there were monsters that took away children and ate them. But the monsters wouldn't be so idle as to leave a mark in a place like this...

Anyway, this is an interesting matter.

"Miss Sandra, what are your plans?"

"I also want to track down the criminal. After all, I am the ruler of the class, but Brother Mandela told me to stay here..."

At this point, Sandra also showed a dissatisfied expression. It was obvious that she didn't want to stay in such a place alone.

"In that case, let's go."

In response to Sandra's complaint, Fang Zheng also snapped his fingers.

"Let's go and see who that devil is."
