Chapter 42 Gift
When the door is closed, the sound of the sea breeze is also blocked.
The room was quiet.
1551 suddenly touched his face and murmured, "A little hot?"
He shook his head to get rid of the strange feeling.
After making sure the door was closed tightly, 1551 took out the cat ears from the prop library and put them on.
As soon as you put it on, the system's function panel appears.
1551 opened the manual sent to him by 999 and studied the other items carefully.
At least the idea of trying to capture the other person's stomach first is no longer feasible.
Instead, his stomach was about to be captured.
He savored the taste of the seafood noodles, and what emerged in his mind was not only the bowl of seafood noodles, but also the figure of Gu Chenzhou standing in the kitchen with his white shirt sleeves rolled up. When his back was facing him, he could see his broad back and excellent shoulder width, and the muscular lines on his forearms. Even when he was just beating an egg with one hand, he felt powerful.
1551 reached out and pinched his forearm; the flesh there was soft.
It's completely different from Gu Chenzhou's.
After worrying for a while, he suddenly realized that he had been distracted again.
Gu Chenzhou was clearly no longer in front of him, but he still thought of him frequently.
This symptom... must be because he takes the mission too seriously!
1551's eyes lit up, and the mechanical cat ears on his head trembled.
He studied the manual for a while longer when there was a knock on the door.
1551 hurriedly put away the cat ears. He didn't have time to put them into the system backpack, so he could only stuff them into the quilt casually.
The knock on the door stopped after three times. The person outside waited very politely and didn't urge me.
After a while, the door was opened.
Gu Chenzhou looked at the small system that seemed inexplicably panicked, and his eyes darkened.
If he had not been sure that he did not sense the intrusion of outsiders next door, he would have almost suspected that someone from the other world was looking for him again.
Looking at the silent man, 1551 tilted his head: "What's wrong?"
Gu Chenzhou: "I brought you a gift."
He looked behind 1551 calmly, and only looked away after making sure there was no sign of anyone else being there.
1551 was a little surprised: "Thank you."
He took it and obediently asked if he could open it, and only opened it after getting a positive answer.
Inside the rectangular box, a brand new mobile phone lies quietly.
1551 was genuinely surprised this time: "Is this for me?"
He didn't expect that Gu Chenzhou actually noticed that he didn't have a mobile phone.
Although it has its own system panel and can search for many things, it is just as easy to use as a mobile phone or computer.
But after all, you can't take it out all the time.
He pressed the power button of the phone and found that there was a card inserted in the phone and it could be used normally.
1551's eyes sparkled, and he looked as cute as an animal cub receiving a gift for the first time. I couldn't help but say thank you again.
"Thank you!"
So good.
The darkness in Gu Chenzhou's eyes disappeared instantly, and he reached out and rubbed the boy's head: "It's okay."
It was through the system called 999 that he learned that 1551 was in such a difficult situation.
I was tied up by Su He before, but I didn’t expect that after being untied, I would still be troubled by the Lord God.
Without even an identity, he was thrown into this world with just a system.
He couldn't escape and could only be pushed forward.
He must be feeling very uneasy inside.
Gu Chenzhou looked at 1551 and lowered his eyes to hide his heartache.
1551, who was suddenly touched on the head, looked a little dazed. He tilted his head back, and now not only his ears were red, but his cheeks were also visibly red.
"I noticed you haven't taken out your phone today. Maybe something happened. It's hard to buy a phone at sea. If you don't mind, use this one I gave you."
The man explained considerately, but he couldn't help it in the next second and reached out to rub 1551's little hair again.
1551 narrowed his eyes subconsciously, looking more like a cat whose fur had been stroked.
But I didn't notice my little action.
Gu Chenzhou's Adam's apple moved up and down for a moment, suppressing his desire for closer contact.
Take your time and don't scare him.
There seemed to be a dark light flashing in the man's eyes, but when 1551 looked over, there was nothing.
Gu Chenzhou: "I'm leaving first, good night."
1551 curled his eyes and said, "Good night."
It's just two words, but at this moment they carry with them an indescribable feeling.
The door was closed again.
1551 looked down at his phone and suddenly did something strange.
He stretched out his hand and touched his head just like Gu Chenzhou had just touched him.
There was nothing but soft strands of hair running through my fingers.
"Why does it feel completely different from just now?"
1551 grumbled and rolled back on the bed with a blushing face.
After he got tired of rolling around, he suddenly raised his phone and smiled with a silly expression on his face.
A gift, a gift for him.
…
“…That’s all.”
999 lowered his head and made the report respectfully.
After a while, until cold sweat almost appeared on his forehead, he finally heard a vague voice coming from above.
The Lord God's voice was as silent as ever, expressing no emotion: "Gu Chenzhou is very cold towards 1551?"
As soon as he heard the three words "Gu Chenzhou", 999's heart suddenly tightened.
There is fear but also other more complex emotions.
They were the only ones in the room during the conversation that day.
Only they knew about that crazy, desperate deal.
999 had no idea how much of a stir his promise would cause, or whether it would be quietly destroyed after being discovered.
He only knew that there was a fog ahead, but if he looked back now, what was waiting for him would be a cliff thousands of feet high.
to pieces.
He had to agree, as he had his own selfish motives.
After hearing the Lord God's complete question, 999 felt a chill in his heart again.
The Lord God really doesn't care about 1551 at all, or to be more precise, he doesn't care about all systems.
Whether it is one system, hundreds of systems, or even all of them.
In His eyes, we are all just tools.
He wanted to divide tools into those that were convenient and those that were not.
Therefore, the sentence just now was not really emotionless, but rather carried a strong sense of coldness.
Even though he knew it wasn't true, 999 still answered, "Yes."
This was of course one of the deals he made with Gu Chenzhou.
None of them can let the Lord God find out that Gu Chenzhou cares about 1551.
Only in this way can 1551 be protected to the greatest extent.
Although this will make the Lord God unhappy.
However, 1551 is still under the protection of Gu Chenzhou. The Lord God cannot invade that world, and cannot recall 1551 to reprimand him.
Suddenly, a pressure came over him, and 999 knew that it was the Lord God who was angry.
The Lord God rarely reveals his true emotions, and will only reveal them when he can no longer suppress them.
As an advanced system, he rarely encounters such scenes.
999 suppressed a groan of pain and continued to lower his head without saying a word.
After a while, he began to feel pain all over his body, and finally heard the Lord God's cold snort.
"You are now his monitoring system. You need to accelerate the progress of his mission."
999 lowered his head even lower: "Yes."
Even though 999 would only answer yes, that was enough in the eyes of the Lord God.
He was too proud to hear any answer except agreement.
The Lord God: "Go to that outer world again and tell him my warning."
999: “Yes.”
After waiting for a while and making sure that the Lord God had nothing to say to him, 999 quietly left this pure white space.
With the help of the shuttle channel, 999 closed his eyes to rest for a while and then came back to the surface world from the system space.
Completely different from the rejection he had felt before, this time he didn't feel uncomfortable at all.
Instead, just like the last time he was forcibly sucked into the cracks in time and space, he was almost led here.
999 looked at Gu Chenzhou in shock and doubt, deeply realizing that something was horrifying.
The male protagonist in this world has grown so much.
Now he can not only prevent the Lord God from entering this world, but also tacitly allow him to enter.
Because they are now partners.
999 has never felt fear towards a human being.
The facts were already before him, forcing him to believe it.
With more time... Gu Chenzhou will be able to escape from this superficial world.
He didn't dare to think about what would happen then.
999: "How's 1551?"
Gu Chenzhou looked at him expressionlessly, rubbing his fingers nervously: "He's fine."
I also had two bowls of seafood noodles tonight.
But there is no need to tell anyone about this. It’s good enough that only he knows about this cute little system.
I really just told a big lie to the Lord God.
For a moment, 999 really wanted to frown and sigh.
This is not just being indifferent to 1551, it's simply that he wants to monopolize it and hide it away so that no one else can covet it.
999: "I have done as you instructed and blurred the information available to the Lord God."
Gu Chenzhou raised his eyebrows and laughed meaninglessly.
But the hint of murderous intent in the laughter was hard to ignore.
999 feels a little uncomfortable.
He had seen too many crazy protagonists, but this was the only one who aimed his murderous intent at the Lord God.
In just a blink of an eye, Gu Chenzhou returned to his original expressionless look. He sat casually, but his aura was hard to ignore.
Such a strong sense of oppression even made 999 dazed for a moment.
Gu Chenzhou raised his hand to check his watch and said in a notification tone, "He's already asleep at this time. Tell him tomorrow if you have anything to say."
999: “I know.”
Feeling that his own momentum was too weak, 999 couldn't help but speak again: "You promised me that you couldn't let 1551 get involved."
Gu Chenzhou said nothing, but just looked up at him.
The scarlet in his eyes made 999 speechless.
He was frightened by the mixture of emotions in the man's eyes.
The things I had been worrying about seemed to have received the most perfect answer at this moment.
If he didn't care about it to the extreme, why would he want to fight against the main god of the other world?
What I just said is meaningless whether I say it or not.
999 shut his mouth and disappeared from the room silently.
