Chapter 104: The Journey of God-making (4)
"Little thing." Duan Jiangli snorted and grabbed the droopy thing with eyes in his hand. "Can it turn into a human?"
That thing couldn't beat Duan Jiangli, so it obediently changed into a human under his threat.
Duan Jiangli: "Come on, I'll take you to a place."
Ever since Gu Qiufeng brought everything back on track, the world has returned to normal.
If he was still the playboy who fooled around abroad, Duan Jiangli would definitely find this kind of life boring and tedious.
But after going through so much, he was left with nothing but satisfaction.
Probably because his memory had been overwritten by Xie Xin, Duan Jiangli's memory was not successfully erased after the world was restarted this time.
He went to his sister with a confused look on his face to ask about the game, and was almost sent to see a psychologist by Duan Chouyu.
Duan Jiangli immediately contacted Gu Qiufeng and returned to China overnight to meet him.
Gu Qiufeng didn't expect that there would be a fish that slipped through the net at first. After listening, he asked sincerely: "Do you need me to help you with after-sales service?"
Duan Jiangli: “…………”
Duan Jiangli: "Thank you. For the time being, I don't want to see you tamper with my memory while I'm awake."
Gu Qiufeng said "Oh" and said, "So what are you doing here now?"
Duan Jiangli said arrogantly: "I found a bug in Earth Online. As a great world planner, shouldn't you give me some compensation to make me shut up?"
"Oh?" Gu Qiufeng said, "Go grab a passerby on the street and tell him about this bug. Let's see whether you will be sent to the psychiatric department first, or the world will fall into chaos first."
Duan Jiangli said aggrievedly: "I don't care, this is a work injury!"
"Just a joke." Gu Qiufeng said, "What do you want to do?"
Duan Jiangli chuckled twice and rubbed his hands: "I want my superpowers back."
"You want superpowers?" Gu Qiufeng asked.
Duan Jiangli explained: "I want to work for you... Well, it's good that I don't have Origin now, but I don't have a job either. So, I want to work for you. I don't like a stable life. If it doesn't change, I will be bored to death sooner or later. After thinking about it, it is best for me to work for you."
"Besides, it won't be too lonely if you have someone to remember the past with you, right?"
Gu Qiufeng was slightly stunned when he heard the last sentence, but he quickly calmed down: "I do have something you can do."
Although the world has returned to normal, the hidden dangers have not been completely eliminated.
The previous phenomenon of origin invasion in the real world was because the channel between the two worlds was opened.
Duan Jiangli's job is to help Gu Qiufeng catch those origins who took the opportunity to escape.
Although this job seems difficult and may even involve injuries, Duan Jiangli unexpectedly likes it very much.
And because he had a proper job and stopped fooling around, his sister Duan Chouyu, who worked at the Institute of Biology, treated him much better.
When Duan Jiangli brought Qiyuan back to the company, he saw the receptionist watering the vase on the table and asked curiously, "Your boss hasn't come back yet?"
The receptionist shook his head with a bitter face.
Duan Jiangli made a sound of sighing.
After the world is restored to normal, all the dead will be resurrected.
Except Xie Xin.
Xie Xin was originally a part of X. After Gu Qiufeng completely eliminated this creator, there was no trace of the existence of Xie Xin in the world.
No one will remember him anymore.
But Gu Qiufeng still always travels between the other world to look for Xie Xin.
Duan Jiangli didn't know how to persuade his old friend.
"By the way," the receptionist looked at Duan Jiangli in embarrassment, "Today a gentleman came and insisted on seeing the boss. Mr. Duan, you are a friend of the boss, can you help solve this problem?"
"Okay." Duan Jiangli said readily, "Please help me take this person to register. He is a new employee in our company."
The excuse he used to the outside world was being a talent scout and HR.
To outsiders, it does seem so, as Duan Jiangli always comes back with a newcomer with excellent qualifications.
Over time, he is almost becoming one of the legendary figures of Xinfeng Entertainment.
The receptionist was no exception. She looked at Duan Jiangli twice with admiration.
Duan Jiangli put his hands in his pockets, walked into the elevator reserved for employees, swiped his card and went straight to the top floor.
Gu Qiufeng's office is on the top floor, although this guy doesn't stay there very often.
The man who claimed to be Gu Qiufeng's friend had an outstanding temperament and didn't look like a liar. He also had identification. The assistant didn't know what to do, so he arranged for him to work in his boss's office.
But in fact, the assistant couldn't contact Gu Qiufeng at all. Whenever Gu Qiufeng took a vacation, he would disappear without a trace, so the assistant initially thought that the gentleman would leave on his own after getting tired of waiting.
Seeing Duan Jiangli coming over, the assistant's eyes suddenly lit up, as if he had seen a savior falling from the sky.
Although Mr. Duan is nominally an employee, any discerning person can see that he has a special connection with his boss.
Since the boss is not here, it's okay to let Mr. Duan handle it, right?
The assistant explained the whole thing to Duan Jiangli in a few words. Duan Jiangli had already known some of what happened at the front desk. After hearing the two remarks in a string, he raised his eyebrows and almost guessed the identity of the man.
Duan Jiangli pushed open the door.
A man with long hair tied in a simple braid turned around.
He was wearing a white shirt and had a confused look on his face.
"Senior Gu Jiu," Duan Jiangli shrugged, "Why are you here?"
The man pointed at himself with his finger: "Do you know me?"
Duan Jiangli choked slightly and looked at the man suspiciously.
"Since you haven't recovered your memory," Duan Jiangli walked to Gu Jiu inquiringly and looked him up and down, "Then why did you come to the company to look for Gu Qiufeng?"
Logically speaking, everyone's memory should have been erased after the world was reset, so there shouldn't have been any bugs.
Gu Jiu said calmly, "So your name is Gu Qiufeng. Is that the name I gave you?"
Duan Jiangli: "..."
Duan Jiangli was even more puzzled: "How much did you remember?"
"Not much. I always felt like I was dreaming," Gu Jiu said. "After I woke up, I felt something was wrong, so I thought about the wrong part. Plus, Xinfeng Company is now in the limelight, so I found this place quickly."
He said it lightly, but Duan Jiangli, who was standing beside him, felt his hair stand on end.
Is Gu Jiu really still a human being?
This IQ is too weird!
"Don't be nervous, I don't mean to do anything bad." Gu Jiu said, "I just really want to come here and take a look."
Duan Jiangli asked: "Why?"
Gu Jiu smiled and lowered his eyes. "Perhaps my past self foresaw something," he said, tapping his solar plexus. "My past self left some kind of signal for my present self, to come here to comfort a very sad person."
When Gu Jiu said this, he changed the subject and stared at Duan Jiangli in front of him: "Besides, I have met Miss Duan several times before."
Duan Jiangli: "...How do you know my sister?"
Gu Jiu said: "A colleague from the same research institute. She complained to me that she had a troublesome brother."
Duan Jiangli gritted his teeth: "You are not threatening me, are you?"
"Nothing." Gu Jiu smiled, "It's just that I might talk to your sister about your current job."
Duan Jiangli was furious.
With Gu Jiu's terrifying IQ, he probably guessed that the position he held in the company was just a nominal one. What would happen if Duan Chouyu really knew what dangerous things he was doing?
Duan Jiangli stared at Gu Jiu, but he couldn't connect him with the tall and majestic image of the Holy Father in the legend.
Who is this old bastard who is full of evil intentions?
Duan Jiangli spread his hands helplessly: "But I really don't know where Gu Qiufeng went. If he wants to leave, no one will be able to find him."
Gu Jiu understood clearly and said, "He went to another world?"
Duan Jiangli was dumbfounded: "...Is it true that your memory has not been restored?"
Gu Jiu: "It seems so."
Duan Jiangli then realized that Gu Jiu was deceiving him.
Before he could even utter "Oh my god", his cell phone suddenly rang.
Duan Jiangli looked down at the message, then suddenly looked up and said to Gu Jiu: "If you want to see me, you can see me now."
"He's coming back, we can go get him."
*
Gu Qiufeng sat on the bus and rubbed his wrist joints.
Every time he cyclically cycled between the two worlds, he was mainly busy repairing the channel barrier between the two worlds to prevent the recurrence of the previous large-scale origin invasion.
Now it's finally almost repaired.
Gu Qiufeng was sitting on the bus.
This bus is a very famous sea sightseeing bus, and it was also the one he was going to take before he accidentally entered the game.
In fact, he could be teleported directly back to the company, but Gu Qiufeng didn't want to do that. Every time he would take this bus back and enjoy the scenery along the way.
It's like commemorating a game that no one remembers anymore.
When the bus stopped, the girl behind Gu Qiufeng sat up in a panic and asked, "Sir, which stop is this?"
Gu Qiufeng said: "Times Building."
The little girl looked like she was about to cry but had no tears: "It's over, it's over, I got on the wrong bus!"
She ran under the car.
Because she ran so fast, she didn't even notice that she had dropped a book.
Gu Qiufeng had no choice but to pick up the book and get off the car.
But when he looked again, the little girl was nowhere to be seen.
The book has not been opened yet. It must have been bought by the little girl from the bookstore.
Gu Qiufeng regretted that he had rashly brought the book down with him. He should have given the book to the driver.
This place was still far away from the company he was originally going to, and the bus happened to be the last stop, so Gu Qiufeng had no choice but to send a message to Duan Jiangli and ask him to pick him up.
While waiting for the bus, Gu Qiufeng could only look at the book that the little girl had dropped.
There should be two lines of poetry quoted on the cover, with the hardcover edition printed on both sides of the cover.
"Life is like a dream, time passes like flowing water."
Gu Qiufeng was stunned for a moment, and some fleeting thoughts and ideas emerged in his mind.
At this moment, General Duan drove over, stopped by the roadside, rolled down the window, and called out to Gu Qiufeng curiously, "What are you daydreaming about?"
"It's okay." Gu Qiufeng said, "A little girl left a book on the bus. I wanted to give it to her, but I didn't catch up."
Duan Jiangli smiled and said, "Will our savior have such a day?"
Only then did Gu Qiufeng react.
Yes, he could go back in time to find that girl.
But when he went back in time, he found that he was the only one on the bus.
Duan Jiangli didn't know what Gu Qiufeng was doing, he could only see his expression change instantly: "What's wrong?"
"It's okay." Gu Qiufeng said, "I won't look for it anymore. I can't find it."
Duan Jiangli let out an "ah", feeling that there was something else behind Gu Qiufeng's words.
But he didn't think much about it. He was just happy to see that the invisible burden on his friend was suddenly lightened. So he said, "You don't know who I brought here."
At this point, the rear window was slowly rolled down.
Revealing a calm and indifferent face.
Gu Qiufeng and Gu Jiu met each other's eyes and were slightly stunned.
"Welcome back." Gu Jiu said.
Gu Qiufeng said "hmm", opened the car door and sat next to Gu Jiu.
Duan Jiangli started the car with a smile and said, "I have already sent the news to those young artists you brought with you. They plan to hold a welcoming banquet for you. You won't be away for so long this time, right?"
Gu Qiufeng gently placed his hand on the cover of "Like Water Flowing Years" and said, "I'm not leaving."
When the car stopped at the brightly lit entrance of the company, Gu Qiufeng was embraced by Feng He as soon as he got out of the car. The other origins surrounded him, chattering and asking about his experiences these days.
Gu Qiufeng subconsciously turned around and made eye contact with the smiling Gu Jiu.
When they went to the hotel they had booked across the street to have dinner, Gu Jiu and Gu Qiufeng walked at the back of the crowd.
Gu Jiu asked: "What do you plan to do in the future?"
"I haven't thought about it yet." Gu Qiufeng smiled, "Maybe I'll just be their agent."
He touched his nose and said, "I always feel that it would be a sad thing if no one could help these origins integrate into reality."
Just like when he first started out as an agent it wasn't just a spur of the moment decision.
When Gu Qiufeng was just discharged from the hospital, he took Xie Xin out to drink secretly.
While slightly tipsy, Gu Qiufeng stared at Xie Xin opposite him, but suddenly he felt a sense of panic in his heart that he was not from here.
Leave him here.
Keep him as long as you can.
There was a thought in my heart that was clamoring for no reason.
Gu Qiufeng thought, if he could make him remembered by everyone, that should be enough time for them to keep him, right?
A gust of wind blew by, and Gu Qiufeng regained his smile and walked into the crowd that was cheering his name.
He thought to himself, is life really just a dream?
Maybe not.
Not knowing who he was talking to, Gu Qiufeng raised his eyes.
At that moment, the starry sky came into view.
