Chapter 6 Returning Home
1551 didn't know what was happening outside. After losing his clearer perspective as a system, he could only observe through his current shell.
Because of what the male protagonist just said, he now just wants to be a quiet toy snake.
After walking back to the national highway, someone passed by soon. I borrowed his cell phone and contacted him.
The person who came to pick us up was quick and considerate. After hearing that the boss had picked up a snake, he also brought a small transparent box for keeping reptiles.
"Mr. Gu, be careful." The assistant looked at him worriedly as he moved the snake from his suit jacket.
It was a completely wild snake that could bite at any time.
Although they were already used to Mr. Gu's mood swings, they could not hide their astonishment at this moment.
What to be careful about?
1551 couldn't help but poke its head out from the male protagonist's hand, and its little snake tongue moved nervously.
Could it be that the kidnappers are back again?
The small system that left the system space for the first time was completely unaware that it could be aggressive.
The man's movements were a little too big, and he was immediately frightened and bit his tail, forming a cowardly circle.
Gu Chenzhou chuckled.
1551 looked up suspiciously, suspecting that the male protagonist was laughing at him.
But when he looked over, he could only see the man's clear jawline.
He was placed in a transparent box and carefully coiled up on a piece of wood placed specially inside, his tail wagging nervously.
The points Su He lent him were few, so the time he could stay was very short.
While feeling scared, 1551 couldn't help but feel a secret joy and anticipation rising in his heart.
This is the first time that he has his own "life" in the real world.
If only one day, he could truly come into this world with his own body...
This thought briefly appeared for a few seconds, but he quickly dismissed it.
1551 shook his head frantically, and the little tail he was holding in his mouth also drooped down.
No system has ever wanted to leave the system space and come to the surface world. This is just a reaction to the virus. It is a redundant and cumbersome emotional module.
Other systems told him that once he earned enough points, he must completely eliminate the virus.
1551 had not yet fully adapted to its new body. After shaking itself dizzy, it fell down with a thud, turning from a little white snake into a pool of "ice cream".
Gu Chenzhou seemed to be listening to his subordinates reporting their investigation results, but in fact his attention was always on the acrylic box. Seeing his silly movements, a smile flashed in his eyes that he himself did not even notice.
The assistant almost thought he was seeing things. He couldn't help but wonder what kind of little animal could attract Mr. Gu's attention. But just as he was about to glance over, he was startled by the noise coming from outside the car window.
The car window was knocked on rapidly, and Su He stood outside the car, unable to hide the ugly expression on his face.
After receiving Gu Chenzhou's tacit consent, the assistant slowly lowered the window and asked, "Excuse me, is there anything I can do for you?"
Since becoming a time traveler, this was the first time he was so obviously ignored. The absurdity in Su He's heart continued to spread. He raised his voice: "I was implicated. You can't just leave me here like this."
In order to act realistically enough, he not only had no money on him, but also had lost his cell phone and other items long ago, so he couldn't get a ride for a while.
After Su He finished shouting, he realized that the looks given to him by the protagonist's confidants around him were a little strange. His professional qualities made him realize instantly that he had forgotten to establish his character.
His face suddenly turned pale, and tears seemed to flash in his eyes, as if he was a little white flower who was forbearing in the face of power.
If we hadn't seen him slamming the car window so rudely just now, perhaps this superb acting skill would have earned him some sympathy.
Now everyone just stood there, watching and waiting for the boss's words.
Gu Chenzhou's voice was somewhat cold: "Let him sit in the car behind and go to the police station to make a written statement."
Su He bit her lower lip with her teeth. Seeing that the male protagonist had no intention of looking at her, she could only suppress her anger and walk away.
He couldn't understand why he spent so much effort but still couldn't get into the male protagonist's car. His stupid system was good enough that it turned into a snake and was taken with him.
1551 didn't realize that he was being taken out on. He stayed in the small box quietly for a while, then couldn't help but start to look outside out of curiosity.
There were a few small holes for ventilation on the top of the box, and he stuck his head out and observed everything around him with his black eyes.
The assistant turned his head and finally saw the appearance of the little white snake.
I originally thought it would be a poisonous creature that would make people feel cold, but it turned out to be surprisingly small and exquisite, as smart and cute as a jade carving.
"This snake looks quite smart." The assistant couldn't help but blurt out.
1551 was startled and nervously stretched out its tongue to lick the air.
Snakes can capture scents in the air through such actions, and the cold and loose aura of the male protagonist seemed to drown him.
1551 secretly glanced at the male protagonist, and was glad that he didn't notice anything unusual. Little did she know that after hearing what the assistant said, her tail was tangled and about to get tangled.
Gu Chenzhou looked down at the little tail and said deliberately: "It is indeed a bit strange."
He deliberately slowed down his speech a bit and sounded thoughtful.
The assistant looked at the snake again with some confusion: "Strange? What's strange?"
After looking at it for a while, he suddenly realized that it was actually quite cute.
1551's heart, which had just been put at ease, was instantly lifted up again because of the male protagonist's words, and his little tail moved even more nervously.
One careless move...it really got tangled.
Feeling a slight tug at the tail, 1551 looked down in shock and slowly became stiff.
The pointed white tail is tied into a knot, looking pitiful.
A light laugh came from above his head, and this time 1551 heard it clearly. The male protagonist was laughing at him.
1551 suddenly became bolder and did something that he thought was very fierce - he raised his head and glared at the male protagonist.
Gu Chenzhou: ...
Why are you suddenly acting like a spoiled brat?
He smiled slightly and held out his hand to him.
The male protagonist is angry?
1551The little courage that he had finally grown up with shrank back again, and he trembled with fear.
Could it be that it really hurts?
Gu Chenzhou frowned and his hands moved more decisively.
A slight pulling sensation came, and 1551 felt dizzy.
He couldn't care less about his tangled tail. The man's slightly rough fingers were slowly touching his body. His dry and warm hands brought a brand new feeling, and heat flowed through every part he touched.
It seemed that he felt that the white jade-like scales were extremely comfortable to touch. After untying them, Gu Chenzhou did not let go immediately. Instead, he touched them a few more times.
Not too heavy, not too light, with a hint of teasing.
1551 was completely confused and instinctively curled himself up again to avoid the male protagonist's other actions.
The little snake still had a confused expression on his face, but Gu Chenzhou inexplicably saw shyness in him.
If little snakes could blush, they would probably have changed from a little white snake to a pink and tender color by now.
Aren’t all systems supposed to be AI? I didn’t expect they could simulate human emotions so well.
Thinking of this, the smile in Gu Chenzhou's eyes faded a little.
The playful aura coming from Gu Chenzhou just now was too obvious. 1551 moved his body aggrievedly, trying to hide himself deeper, but suddenly found that the knot in his body had been untied.
1551 stuck out her tongue blankly and glanced at the male protagonist secretly. The fear in her heart was gradually replaced by gratitude.
Another thought gradually prevailed in my mind - the male protagonist is indeed a good person.
…
Until he left the police station, 1551 had no idea what had happened.
The male protagonist put him in the car, and after waiting for more than ten minutes, he came out.
Gu Chenzhou ordered calmly: "Drive back."
The driver drove straight to his home in the city center without saying a word.
1551 was stunned. He leaned forward and looked back eagerly.
Gu Chenzhou knew that he cared about the time traveler named Su He. A flash of malice flashed through his mind. He raised his hand and pinched the little white snake's waist: "Don't you want to go back with me?"
He gently touched the three-inch area with his fingertips. It was very fragile. As long as he exerted force... this stupid and timid little guy would lose his life.
He had always only dealt with those annoying time travelers. From a conversation between previous time travelers and the system, he learned that the system and they were grasshoppers tied to the same rope. If something happened to the time travelers while the system was watching over them, the system would most likely be recycled and destroyed.
This was the first time a system had proactively bumped into his hand.
What kind of reaction would occur if the system and the traverser were separated forever?
With the natural perspective of a superior, Gu Chenzhou thought slowly, but there was no murderous intent in the movements of his hands. He continued to stroke slowly and carefully, grasping the most vulnerable part of the poor little system at this moment.
Like a high-level predator, he did not hide his expectation of his prey at all.
Expect those timid reactions from your prey.
Screaming, shaking, running away...
This is how these outsiders should treat him.
Rather than being oddly shy and curious.
Gu Chenzhou's ink-black eyes completely lost his patience.
He is an abnormal protagonist, and those ridiculous empathy were long ago erased in his childhood.
You may be chatting and laughing one second, and have prepared an "exit" plan for you the next.
Just before my fingers were about to exert force, I suddenly felt a cold touch on my wrist.
Gu Yumo looked down and found that this small system had wrapped its thin tail around his wrist without him noticing.
There was no shrinking fear as imagined, nor was there any resistance or panic.
The cute Hei Doudou's eyes were filled with joy because of his words.
Even the host, who was originally worried, temporarily forgot about it.
Go home? You want to take me home?
1551 spit out the little red tongue, and the expression on his dull face became expectant, and the black bean seemed to be glowing.
Gu Chenzhou: ...
He unconsciously moved his fingers away from 1551's body and began to think about another slightly strange question - why this little guy's expression could be so rich.
