"Sister, are you done?"
Ji Qianqin sat obediently on the chair, squinting her eyes and looking at the person in front of her through the gaps between her eyelashes.
Lin Ju stood in front of her, holding various cosmetics in her hands. After glancing at Ji Qianqin, she said calmly, "No."
As she spoke, she smeared some strange stuff on Ji Qianqin's face.
At this moment, Ji Qianqin was like a doll in Lin Ju's hands. If Lin Ju felt that there was something wrong with a certain part, he would apply some paint there, then take two steps back to take a look. If he was not satisfied, he would shake his head, and if he was satisfied, he would proceed to the next step.
The pressure from the undertaker made the female anchor, who was a little manic by nature, sit up straight for the first time and waited obediently for the other party to play with her face.
In fact, she had a lot of bandages wrapped around her body and shouldn't have put on makeup, but she still pestered Lin Ju to ask for her help.
Perhaps it was Lin Ju's superb skills that impressed Ji Qianqin before. In short, Ji Qianqin is now basically not opposed to Lin Ju's operations.
Of course, although she didn't object to it, she, who basically didn't wear makeup, was still a little uncomfortable with Lin Jue applying makeup on her face. She always wanted to twist her body, but in the end, after Lin Jue looked at her deeply, she honestly didn't understand.
However, although she did not dare to act rashly, Ji Qianqin was still able to speak.
"Boss, what are you doing?" Ji Qianqin looked up, looked at Lin Ju in a flattering manner, and asked Bai Ling.
Bai Ling heard this without even raising his head: "Record it."
Record?
This answer obviously made Ji Qianqin very curious.
But she saw that Bai Ling didn't seem to intend to continue speaking, so in the end she could only keep her doubts in her heart.
Without Ji Qianqin's voice, the whole room became quiet again.
Such a quiet atmosphere allowed Bai Ling to organize his thoughts well and write more things in his "diary".
After pondering for a moment, Bai Ling picked up the pen and wrote down the words that only he could recognize.
【I met the "witch" last night and scared her away】
This line of words made Bai Ling sigh, thinking to himself: "If possible, I really don't want to get involved with a 'disaster' level guy so early..."
At this time, three days had passed since the battle with the witch.
Three nights ago, in that abandoned hospital, Bering finally scared the witch so much that she pissed herself and ran away in panic.
It is foreseeable that the other party will not appear for a long time.
To be honest, although it seemed that his act of repelling the witch was a trivial matter, the actual face-to-face contact with the "disaster" level guy still made Bai Ling feel that the hairs on his body stood up.
...Although he seems to have lost this physiological function now that he is dead.
But no matter what, Bering's first contact with the witch was still satisfactory.
Turning the pen in his hand, Bai Ling narrowed his eyes and said, "It's really strange. I still don't know why the witch appeared in the abandoned hospital. Is it because of some secret there, or because of the 'sin face'?"
Watching the carbon pen sliding across his fingertips like water, Bai Ling's consciousness also danced lightly along with the tip of the pen.
"But no matter what, I have already ruined that guy's plan. Given her cautious personality, she probably won't dare to show up."
Can this be considered a good ending?
The other party probably thinks that he is some old monster or someone related to old things, but given the witch's personality, he probably won't publicize it.
For her, this would probably be embarrassing, even though she was already very embarrassed.
Therefore, I am afraid that Bering’s “true identity” will eventually rot in the witch’s heart.
Thinking of this, he continued to write a line in his diary.
[Zou Ye lost consciousness and died, obtained the "guilty face", recruited the "recorder" Ji Qianqin, and used the identity of the anchor to expand his influence]
This was the second most important thing that happened last night.
The derivative of "Sin Face", Zou Ye who gained self-awareness, died.
He had been floating in Bailing's ocean of consciousness for too long, and pure consciousness could not survive for too long in the material world, so the final result was that Zou Ye's consciousness completely dissipated.
However, although Zou Ye's consciousness dissipated, Bai Ling did not suffer any major losses on this trip.
Because although Zou Ye is dead, "Zui Mian" is not dead yet.
Strictly speaking, Zou Ye himself is actually a manifestation of the second stage of the Sin Face, "turning the virtual into the real" - it can be understood that the Sin Face generated Zou Ye's personality and occupied its body.
However, because of this, the consciousness of Sin Face itself was not completely destroyed, just like bread crumbs can never be completely crushed.
While Zou Ye's consciousness was evident, Zui Mian's consciousness was very weak and he had no reaction to the outside world, almost like he was dead.
But when Zou Ye disappeared and control of the body was regained.
Sinface's original consciousness can then come out to take a breath.
Of course, whether it is Zou Ye himself or Zuimian’s consciousness, it actually makes no difference to Bai Ling.
From the very beginning, what Bai Ling needed was the third stage of "Sin Face", that is, the "Consciousness Invasion" ability to stimulate Ding Yan, and then guide out the emotions buried in "Red Lotus".
In fact, Zou Ye is just a derivative of the "Sin Mask". The real "Sin Mask" is just the mask that Zou Ye once made.
Now, the real mask is still lying on Ding Yan's face, keeping that guy immersed in illusion all the time.
Thinking of this, Bai Ling glanced at Ding Yan, who was leaning on the sofa with his head tilted back, with a wooden mask on his face.
The main body of the "Sin Mask" mask is made of wood, and is carved with a smiling face similar to that of a human, but for some reason, this smiling face looks extremely creepy.
Perhaps it’s because Zou Ye used some special method to make this mask.
At this moment, the mask that had lost Zou Ye's personality behaved unusually well-behaved, perhaps because it sensed something from the same origin as Zou Ye, or perhaps because of Bai Ling's previous performance. In short, its attitude towards Bai Ling could be described as respectful.
Even if Bering would put it under the table or open a bottle of wine, the other party had no objection and was so loyal that it made Bering feel embarrassed.
Well, he is a good comrade! Scratching his hair, Bai Ling sighed: "But I don't know much about Zou Ye. There are too few records in the diary. I only know that this guy is a top woodcarving master."
Perhaps the witch wanted Zou Ye for this reason? Shaking his head, Bai Ling shook off these questions from his mind and said, "And the recorder, this guy has also joined 'Daylight'."
This is a pleasant surprise.
After the witch was scared and ran away last night, the frightened students also left with the witch.
After today's situation, they probably won't want to explore for a long time. But this has nothing to do with Bering, and he didn't issue any confidentiality agreement to these students, leaving them completely alone.
After all, his purpose was to expand publicity.
What he didn't expect was that Ji Qianqin, who had several broken ribs, actually came up to him.
The first thing this woman did was not to call an ambulance. Instead, she grabbed Bai Ling's trouser leg, looked ferocious, and said to him like a ghost: "Let me join you!"
It has to be said that Ji Qianqin's expression at that time was so shocking that Bai Ling subconsciously took a photo.
This photo is the type that can be printed out and hung at the door to ward off evil spirits and repel the five ghosts.
Bai Ling even felt that the next time the witch appeared, he would be able to scare her away without bloodshed just by relying on this photo.
This is a typical example of dark history that future "recorders" will do everything they can to record it, beat their chests and stamp their feet, and almost go crazy.
Plus Ding Yan's sexual quirks...
Oh no, I feel like collecting the dark history of future geniuses is addictive!
Bai Ling even thought that if he needed help in the future, he could collect the black history of those people in advance when they were weak, and then stop them at the critical moment. He could whisper to them: "Mr./Ms., you don't want these photos/things to be known to others, right?"
Calm down, Bailing. Your character is a mysterious prophet, not a yellow-haired guy!
Bai Ling subconsciously pinched his thigh.
Yet he felt no pain.
But he finally came to his senses and let out a sigh of relief.
It’s really dangerous. I almost lost my character…
Looking at the photo cautiously, Bai Ling couldn't help but shake his head, thinking to himself: "This is really a magic box of desire, it can't be closed once it's opened..."
It's too dangerous, it must be sealed! With this thought in mind, Bai Ling recalled the time when Ji Qianqin joined him.
"You want to join us?" Bai Ling asked at the time, "Why?"
Ji Qianqin answered quickly: "Because if I follow you, I will definitely become famous!"
"You guys will definitely do more similar live broadcasts in the future, right? As long as I take your ride, I will definitely be one of the first people in the world to be exposed to similar things! By that time, I will definitely be more popular than anyone else!"
Ji Qianqin's obsession with "fire" far exceeded Bai Ling's expectations, and it also aroused some interest in him.
Bai Ling: "This is a very hard job, and you could die if you're not careful. Even so, you still want to join?"
Ji Qianqin: "I have been mentally prepared for this kind of thing! Anyway, as long as it can make me famous, I will definitely do my best to do it!"
Is this the character of the "recorder"? Bai Ling had only seen in the diary that this guy particularly liked to join in the fun, and she appeared in almost all places, so he could tell Ji Qianqin's identity at a glance.
If the other party's purpose is really like this, then Bai Ling always feels that Ji Qianqin's purpose seems to be somewhat consistent with his own...
Therefore, after a brief consideration, Bering readily agreed.
He was not afraid that Ji Qianqin was insincere. The "recorder" was not difficult to deal with, not to mention that Ji Qianqin was just an ordinary person with no power at all.
And Bai Ling believed that after Ji Qianqin joined Ming Zhou, even if her previous purpose was not pure, she would be slowly swept up by Bai Ling and go in the direction that Bai Ling could see.
This is the confidence of a prophet, a person who foresaw the outcome in advance! Therefore, the result of this recruitment was that Bai Ling specially created a position for Ji Qianqin, which was [Preparatory Member].
In other words, Ji Qianqin has only partially joined "Ming Zhou" now, and she can only be truly called a member of "Ming Zhou" when Bai Ling thinks she is truly qualified.
Bai Ling had not yet thought of the gap between [preliminary members] and [formal members]. In the next period of time, he would continue to improve these details.
But now, there are more important things.
Biting the carbon pen, Bai Ling pondered for a moment, and finally wrote a new line in the diary.
[Exercise your abilities and give up the worry of changing the future]
The appearance of the witch this time made Bai Ling realize something.
That is, although he has tried his best to choose some "small events" that will not cause drastic changes to the future, large-scale changes will still occur in the future.
For example, the witch appeared in the abandoned hospital and took Zou Ye away.
This was not recorded at all in the original diary. After all, if a "disaster"-level witch really appeared in an abandoned hospital, there would be records of it.
But she just showed up, completely beyond the records in the diary, which meant that the predetermined future had changed.
Since the future has changed, Bailing decided not to be restrained.
The talents he had selected before were all guys who would not have much impact on the future, even Ding Yan, who had the most potential.
But now, it seems that I can't continue to tie my own hands.
"The information in the diary is still necessary, but the most important thing is my own predictive ability."
Bai Ling thought to himself: "The future of the past can only be used as a reference. The future of the present... is the real core!"
Therefore, Bai Ling must exercise his abilities.
At least I should be able to see the future three years later like I did in my original world! In this way, I would have more room to maneuver in the future.
Thinking of this, Bai Ling glanced at his hands: "My training ability is much stronger than my original world. After all, I don't need to be restricted by the price. Therefore, in the next period of time, I need to improve the breadth of my foresight as much as possible!"
Only in this way can we cope with a changing future.
This diary was also written from this perspective.
Just like the diary in which I wrote down my prophecies in my original world, I should also write down some of my own prophecies and constantly train myself...
Closing the diary, Bai Ling put it into his chest.
"Ms. Lin, you can supervise Ji Qianqin's live broadcast later," Bai Ling said, "and take care of Ding Yan. I need to take off my mask for a while."
Then he added: "If he starts twitching next, remember to knock him out!"
Once Ding Yan started to twitch, it meant that the "Red Lotus" that was basically left began to affect Ding Yan. Although it had no effect on Ding Yan's thinking, the other party's violent personality might still cause Ding Yan's thinking to slowly change, and gradually confirm with the future "Red Lotus Walker" again.
Bai Ling brought Ding Yan here to let him take a different path from the original world, but not to let him become another "Red Lotus Walker".
Lin Ju, who was still putting makeup on Ji Qianqin, stopped what he was doing, glanced at Bai Ling, and then nodded slowly: "Got it."
After getting a response, Bai Ling smiled with satisfaction.
As a subordinate, Lin Ju is simply perfect. Not only is he good-looking, he is also very capable and he doesn't talk much. I feel more at ease when I entrust things to him.
Thinking in his heart, Bai Ling couldn't help but stretching: "Then the next step is to let go and do something that may change the future."
Only by being deep in the whirlpool can one truly hone one's abilities. Only by immersing oneself in the howling storm can one forge a truly strong will and dive into the darker abyss in the sea of consciousness.
This is a piece of experience that my original self gave to Bai Ling.
Pushing open the door, feeling the bright coolness of the sun, Bai Ling tied the scarf around his neck, put on his hat, and threw the noodles into his handbag.
Then walk out into the sunshine.
