Chapter 306 Sinner 4753 Reset
How could she act so naturally like a pleader??!
Amuro Toru couldn't understand.
She was like this before he discovered her identity. At that time, he was still suspicious of her. She knew it very well, but she could still call his pseudonym sweetly as an overly intimate name under the moonlight.
However, Toru Amuro had to admit that even if they each had their own ulterior motives, the intimate name at least made the atmosphere harmonious on the surface.
It also makes people want to agree to her little request even more - this is also because she has been very well behaved in the past two days and has not done anything small.
"I know." He said unhappily.
"Oh my God, Mr. Bourbon is such a good man!" Lin Xi said exaggeratedly.
It sounds more like sarcasm than genuine praise.
Bourbon turned and left, and soon returned with the orange juice on ice.
The ice cubes hit the transparent wall of the glass, making a crisp sound. The young man's movements were not gentle, but not a drop was spilled when the glass was placed on the small table.
Lin Xi narrowed her eyes and smiled, then took a sip of the ice juice with satisfaction.
And Amuro Toru was thinking that he should have discovered earlier that Lin Xi was Punch's - Punch also liked to drink iced juice, and especially liked to pour the cold liquid into his stomach before the ice melted.
It was bad for his stomach, but he, a man who drank water and whiskey regularly, had no right to criticize her.
After she finished eating everything on the table, Bourbon took the plate away and left the ward.
Lin Xi stared lazily at the tightly closed curtains. The not-too-thick curtains couldn't block the strong midday sun, and the rich light cast a golden streak across the dark blue drapes.
"I've always loved drinks on the rocks," she said, "but I don't drink strong liquor. Isn't that something we're different about?"
The other self didn't speak all morning, but Lin Xi knew she was there.
"Whiskey is my favorite," said boss Lin Xi. "It's because you're surrounded by children that you've never tried strong liquor."
Punch's identity was that of a girl under twenty, and her strange ethics regarding the small details of the law prevented her from touching alcohol.
"Actually, your body is basically immune to alcohol. It's metabolized quickly after entering your system, so you won't get drunk no matter how much you drink," she said. "You'll know if you try it."
"Well, I will." Lin Xi said, "But that's not what I want to talk about."
"Um? "
"I mean, we're really a little different, aren't we?"
"Preferences are only one aspect, personality is only part... Choice is the most crucial thing. I have no memories of the past, so when faced with many choices, I won't make the same choices as you."
"For example, you said you wanted to kill Bourbon." Lin Xi put his hands behind his head. "Haha, I was indeed impressed by him, but the thought of killing him never occurred to me."
"It's simply because, in this rebooted world, you haven't yet encountered his betrayal." Boss Lin Xi said indifferently, "If he destroyed your most important munitions depot and laboratory within three days, you'd want to kill him too."
"So this is what he did in his previous life?" Lin Xi was surprised. "So amazing?"
"He's a police officer, after all." Boss Lin Xi said, "Besides, I trusted him too much."
"What about Akai Shuichi?" Lin Xi was curious. "He looks a lot like Gin, right?"
BOSS Lin Xi smiled.
"Silver Bullet"—that's the nickname Vermouth gave him. That man truly possesses the ability to be called that. He destroyed the organization's base in the United States, imprisoned the organization's elders one by one, and ended my last hope of escape."
"So it was actually him who dealt you the final blow." Lin Xi sighed. "Beibei really has some pretty classic tastes in some aspects—using the drug that once tortured him as the nickname for the person who broke through the organization. It's quite dramatic."
"So, now that you know all this, you still want to keep them both?" asked Boss Lin Xi.
The tone wasn't aggressive, but rather overly gentle, like someone trying to talk a wayward child out of danger.
"No." Lin Xi smiled. "It's an honor for them to die in my hands. Since they've set their sights on me, they should be prepared for a reversal. However, you know me. I always feel some... well, pity for those who are not as powerful as me."
"Just like my kitten that Bourbon has taken away. Since it's mine, I don't like others to touch it, and I don't want them to break it so easily."
"Are you talking about Shirley and the undercover agent you rescued?" Boss Lin Xi whispered, "Shirley won't die. Her scientific research skills are invaluable..."
"No, I want you to remember." The girl's face was vaguely reflected on the metal IV stand.
Her honey-colored eyes were strange and cold, but her voice was gentle, like the sweet words of a lover.
"You are me, and I am you—if we want to merge, not only must I tolerate the you of the past, but you must also tolerate the me of the present, right? I accept your hatred for this world, and I will also uphold your desire to control it... You must also respect my love for those who join my ranks."
"Only in this way can we become one...my past self."
After a long time, a smile appeared in BOSS Lin Xi's voice.
"I see. I understand."
"Any choices you make during your memory loss will be mine. I will protect the ones you love, just as you did when you lost your memory."
.
The pace of integration has accelerated.
Is this the effect of psychological identification?
It was so hard to resist before... Even if I had to endure such painful feelings, I still held on and didn't want him to completely take over my body.
Just because those weak and pitiful lambs had to cut off their own sharp claws... She could obviously have resisted more fiercely, allowing him to appreciate more of the beauty of her struggle.
He resisted their fusion for the so-called love, and yet chose to accept the fusion for the same reason... 004753, what a perfect and contradictory experimental subject.
The BOSS thought in the consciousness space.
This experimental subject was indeed the miracle he found in the universe after experiencing 4,753 resets.
That’s right, it wasn’t just once as he said, but four thousand seven hundred and fifty-three times—he had experienced four thousand seven hundred and fifty-three restarts of the world, and each time he was defeated miserably.
Compared to everything he had been through, the dozens of times Lin Xi had to go back and forth to save that poor undercover agent was nothing.
He remembered every development of the plot and changed almost every node, but no matter what he did, he would always be defeated by justice in the end, without exception.
This is fate, the world's malice towards him, the boss is sure.
And when he failed for the 4,752nd time, the boss suddenly figured it out.
He already possessed the most powerful technology in the entire world, and had long understood the essence of the world. He did not have much awe for the world he lived in. He just felt that since he was born in this world, whether this world was a book or a movie, it must be his.
The world is vast, and he should have everything.
However, because he was born in this world, no matter how many times he reincarnates, he cannot escape the shackles of fate.
He is a member of this world and naturally obeys the laws of this world, one of which is that as a villain, he is destined to fail.
So, why didn't he find an outsider who had nothing to do with this world to help him?
He was already very proficient in the study of the human body, and it was easy for him to create a body that could accommodate souls from another world; summoning souls from another world was not too difficult for him. He knew that his own world was just like a speck of dust in the entire universe, and there were many worlds outside the world. He calculated the coordinates of his own world, selected a world close to his own world, found a suitable soul that had just died but whose consciousness had not yet dissipated, and brought it back to the world he was in.
The moment the soul from another world was reborn in the body he had prepared, the boss felt sincerely happy.
Then he personally shattered the memories of this soul.
Memory is the most important anchor of consciousness. In order to take over her body in the future, he must break up her past.
In order to merge, he deliberately chose a soul similar to his own, which meant that this soul was as smart and determined as he was, and would do anything to achieve its goals, so it was even more necessary to shatter the anchor of her consciousness.
Afterwards, he stripped away all his skills, uploaded his consciousness into the computer, and implanted the system that integrated the original plot of the world and his own consciousness into her brain.
As she changes the plot step by step and upgrades her skills bit by bit, the self in her brain will revive little by little and eventually completely occupy this carefully crafted body.
By then, he will be a completely free person who is not bound by the rules of this world, and he will trample all those who once stood in his way under his feet.
And now it was almost time... He knew the exact time. Lin Xi would die when that time came, and he would use her consciousness as nourishment and her emotions as a breeding ground to revive in her body.
Everything is so exciting.
The BOSS stays in the pure white consciousness space.
There was just one thing that was annoying. Lin Xi was still wary of him, and it looked like he was really planning to be arrested by the police and taken to that secret prison—the boss had been there before, and escaping from there was quite difficult.
If I were to wake up in that cramped little room... that would be a real problem.
The noise outside the car window interrupted his thoughts.
Lin Xi also opened his eyes.
She yawned and turned over, the handcuffs on her hands making a metallic clanking sound as she moved.
"What's going on out there? Is someone trying to carjack the car?" the boss asked.
"Yeah." Lin Xi said, "You're quite energetic. I was injected with a large amount of anesthetic during the transfer, and I'm extremely sleepy now."
"It's okay. With your metabolic rate, you'll be fine in a while." The boss consoled him. "So who's the carjacker?"
Lin Xi didn't answer, but she didn't need to. Amidst a violent collision and continuous gunfire, the locked car door was opened.
Silver hair cascaded down from the black hat, and the dark green eyes locked onto his target in an instant.
The smell of gunpowder and murderous aura drifted in with the wind, highlighting the overly powerful presence of its owner.
Lin Xi sat up, smiled faintly, and held the handcuffs in front of her. "Hi, good Xiaoqin, are you here to save me?"
"Um."
A gunshot rang out, and the handcuffs were pierced at the most vulnerable part, turning into two pieces of scrap metal that slipped off the wrists.
