The gears of time never stop, and many things in the previous life have not changed at all because of the arrival of Lin Ling and the others.
In 1999, following Hong Kong, Macau also returned to the motherland.
At the end of the same year, Zhao Yongqiang took his wife and son to Japan for further studies.
At that time, Zhao Xianshui and Cai Genxiang were 50 and 49 years old respectively. They took good care of themselves and looked even younger than when they first came 14 years ago.
According to past experience, their mission in this world should have been completed long ago. However, for some unknown reason, the mission progress has been stuck at 99%. The two called the Space-Time Administration Tower many times, but no one responded.
But over the years, they have played their original roles diligently and conscientiously, fulfilling all the obligations and responsibilities they should fulfill without compromise.
It doesn't make sense to be stuck here with no progress. Am I going to waste away here until my body perishes?
Lin Ling and the other two were unwilling.
There is another way. There is an activation code for forced escape. As long as the person on the mission is conscious and speaks the activation code clearly, the main control system of the Space-Time Administration can be contacted for forced escape.
The negative effect of this is that the task points will be halved based on the degree of completion.
It's like you are sent on a business trip by the company and you are supposed to be back in three days, but the client does not give you any suggestions for revision and asks you to work overtime endlessly. If you refuse, your salary and bonus for this project will be reduced by half.
Most people would not want to accept such unfair terms, right?
Even though Lin and Ling were wealthy, they were unwilling to suffer this humiliation.
Although they could not contact the bureau, they knew that Zhao Xianshui and Cai Genxiang were monitoring the progress of their mission in real time through multiple windows in the bureau.
That's easy.
They sent Zhao Yongqiang and his family on the plane to Japan, and then immediately found a professional financial company and accounting firm to count their personal assets.
Over the past decade, they have accumulated a lot of assets, and it will take some time for professional personnel and institutions to complete these tasks.
A month later, a detailed asset report was delivered to the two.
Lin Yi dismissed the idlers, locked the doors and windows, turned off the surveillance equipment in the villa, and began to appeal to Xu Kong's emotions and reason.
This unilateral negotiation was led by Lin Yi, with Ling Shuang as a supplement.
Lin Yi recounted the various major directions and small details of these years. The general meaning was to say to the original couple: After our diligent struggle and cooperation, your three children are now all healthy and successful in their careers.
Now, not only are the three siblings’ relationships very harmonious, but the interpersonal relationships between the two families are also extremely harmonious.
The children are not only able to support themselves, but also have sound minds and the ability to create happiness.
But they are adults with independent thoughts after all. They have the right to control their own lives, and the taskers have no right and intention to impose their will on them.
They have done everything they could, and with all the above, they have even exceeded their workload. Why shouldn’t they be given 100%?
Lin Yi kept repeating the same thing for a long time, but there was still no sound indicating that the task was 100% completed.
He exchanged glances with Ling Shuang, then picked up the financial report on the coffee table and said in a deep voice to the air, "This document in my hand is the property we have earned over the past fourteen years. Not counting antiques, it's worth about 80 million yuan. Originally, all of this was to be left to our three children.
Now, since there's no going back anytime soon, and money is nothing to me, we're going to hire a lawyer to get it settled, and donate all our assets to remote mountainous areas to build Hope Primary Schools. From now on, your children will be responsible for our food, clothing, shelter, and transportation."
After the words were spoken, there was still a long silence.
It seems that they miscalculated. Money is like dirt to Zhao Xianshui and Cai Genxiang.
Lin Yi held his breath, took out his cell phone, and called the law firm: "Lawyer Wu, do you have time? Could you please come over..."
Before Lin Yi finished speaking, a burst of heavenly electronic synthesized sound exploded into brilliant fireworks in his mind, and the fireworks happily broadcast the news:
"Congratulations, your current world mission progress has been 100% completed, and the backend is calculating your points.
Your points will be credited to your account within 15 working days. You can choose to stay in the current level or leave at any time.
If you choose to leave, we will create a disposable tool based on your words and actions. The tool will replace you in this dimension until the original body's lifespan is exhausted and the body dies. There is no additional charge.
This was followed by a burst of crackling fireworks, which created a very nice atmosphere.
Lin Yi curled his lips and said to the other end of the phone, "Sorry, I'll call you back later."
?
Before leaving, the two men made clear arrangements for the assets under their names to avoid anything that might cause a quarrel between the brothers.
They directly set up a trust fund in Hong Kong to be used for the living, study and entrepreneurship of Zhao Xianshui's descendants under the age of 18.
All antiques, cultural relics, medical prescriptions and pharmacopoeias that he memorized were handed over to the state.
In the early spring of 2001, the two people who had handled all this left this small world at the same time. The physical bodies of Zhao Xianshui and Cai Genxiang paused briefly for one thousandth of a second, and the replicated tool men were connected almost seamlessly.
Lin Yi and the other person returned to the Space-Time Administration. They woke up from the mission cabin and stretched their stiff limbs. Although 15 years in the mission world was only 15 hours here, it was long enough, wasn't it?
Assistant Little Puppet-1 promptly handed over two nutritious meals and used a light computer to introduce the important news that happened in the bureau during the mission to the two.
On the way back to the office, the three met the materialized souls of Zhao Xianshui and Cai Genxiang. The two were begging the staff to let them return to their bodies and also asked to meet the tasker.
But they were all gently and firmly rejected by the customer service staff.
Lin Ling and the other man passed by them without even glancing at them.
The sun rises in the south, and it is a new day.
?
Lin Yi and Ling Shuang stopped at the end of the corridor, turned around at the same time, and looked at each other face to face.
Ling Shuang stretched out his right hand, smiled and said: "It's a pleasure to work with you."
Lin Yi also extended his right hand sincerely: "It's my pleasure."
Before he finished speaking, he quickly withdrew his hands, then turned around and walked in two directions without looking back.
The two people who had been so friendly just now quickly put away their smiles and turned cold the moment they turned around.
Lin Yi also took out a wet wipe and wiped his hands repeatedly, then casually threw the waste paper into the trash can beside him.
Ling Shuang returned to his independent office and instructed his assistant, "Pick out the cases that require dual-taskers and put them aside. I don't want to do team tasks anytime soon. Please let me handle them alone. Thank you."
"As you wish."
