Although the systems differ in technology, they are both products of advanced technology and share the same quantum magnetic field, which is why they can communicate or track each other.
Night had fallen.
050 sensed that its host's consciousness was unstable tonight, with fragments of memories flashing by with a dark background. It knew that these were Yu Ning's past life experiences. The various sounds were making its host brain ache, so it directly chose to block them with one click.
Before 050 could even enter a sleep state to conserve energy, it was startled to feel a strange fluctuation emanating from its surroundings.
050 was immediately terrified:
"Who is it? Who is playing tricks?!"
"Hmph... How dare this audacious demon system cry 'stop thief'!"
A clear, boyish voice with its own reverberation echoed in the system space, like a majestic and solemn divine voice, "Tell me the truth, what is your purpose in binding this human girl?"
050, who was brought to court in the blink of an eye: "..."
Damn it, just from that arrogant and pretentious tone, I knew it was one of those annoying guys from the Time and Space Administration.
"I'm not from your Time and Space Bureau, so what right do you have to tell me what to do?" 050's cold, mechanical voice dismissed him.
"Because I'm older than you, and longer than you!"
Xiao Qi, lurking in the system space, was not afraid at all. His tone was arrogant and contemptuous, perfectly portraying the image of a domineering king who looked down on everyone.
050 suspects there is a problem with their hearing:
"W-what??"
They start by saying it's so exciting and has color?
Then it heard that arrogant, boyish voice coming from all directions:
"What are you thinking? My number is four digits, and yours is three digits. Of course, my status is higher than yours."
Xiaoqi's tone, tinged with embarrassment and disdain, said, "Sure enough, the heart finds everything dirty!"
They're all just wild tribes that haven't been incorporated into the government!
Unlike them, so pure and flawless! Pshaw!
050, who was once again stigmatized in the blink of an eye: "..."
Don't tell it that everyone in the Time and Space Administration is so immature and neurotic, otherwise its past desire to work hard to pass the civil service exam will seem like a joke.
After saying these words, Xiaoqi quietly breathed a sigh of relief.
This was its first time facing a wild system head-on. It was said that these systems were all incredibly reckless in the martial arts world, which made the system quite nervous.
After mentally preparing herself in the shadows, Xiao Qi continued to project an arrogant and domineering aura, coldly snorting, "Tell me, what exactly is your purpose in binding her?"
050 was provoked to rebel:
"I'm not going to tell you."
Xiao Qi paused, his boyish voice long and unfathomable:
"Then don't blame me for being impolite."
"With your fledgling little system? I'm telling you... Giao! What have you done?!"
Just as 050 was spouting threats, it was suddenly struck by a powerful electric current. Its arrogant mechanical voice instantly changed tone, "Awooo—"
"You think the Time and Space Bureau is just all show and no substance? You're sorely mistaken."
Xiaoqi proudly tossed its nonexistent hair; its honor as an outstanding graduate wasn't bought. It concentrated its energy, gathering bursts of power to stimulate the 050 spiritual entity opposite it.
"I'm usually very kind and would never resort to vigilante justice, but if you continue to refuse to cooperate, don't blame me for getting tough!"
Xiao Qi, who originally meant to say "tiger," accidentally misspoke and imitated Chao Chao's sweet, childlike voice. Her momentum plummeted instantly. Xiao Qi paused, then took a deep breath and said, "Tell me the truth right now!"
050 initially wanted to fight head-on, but realized he was no match for them. On the verge of being electrocuted, he surrendered, his mechanical voice crackling into electronic music.
"Stop, stop shocking me... I'll confess, I'll confess, okay..."
"Her task was simply to complete the storyline that the female lead was supposed to have, that's all..."
050 sees himself as a tough guy, and now he's so aggrieved he wants to cry. Yu Ning isn't even willing to properly complete this main quest, boohoo...
After hearing 050's explanation, Xiaoqi looked doubtful. "That's all? Is there anything you're hiding?"
A fleeting hint of guilt flashed in 050's weak voice, which Xiaoqi, lost in thought, didn't notice. "...I've said everything I needed to say."
Xiao Qi observed the system from all angles for a while, and after confirming that the 050 system was indeed telling the truth, she said, "Alright, I'll believe you for now, but—"
The mysterious boyish voices all around suddenly drew out, startling 050 so much that his heart skipped a beat.
"After I leave, you are not allowed to do anything wrong, nor are you allowed to torture Yu Ning! You must be a good leader, a moral and ethical leader, understand?"
Xiaoqi imitated Chaochao's father, giving him instructions in a serious tone. Sure enough, she saw him tremble in fright, and she immediately nodded in satisfaction.
What shocked and aggrieved 050 was that it dared not torture Yu Ning; it was she who tortured it! You were the ones who inflicted the harm, yet you still expect it to be a good leader!
Absolutely despicable and shameless!!!
Xiao Qi, who was about to leave, suddenly stopped. It sensed some kind of frenzied fluctuation nearby. "Did you say anything?"
050, barely breathing, said, "I said take care."
Xiaoqi: "Oh."
Then they left.
It didn't say where it came from or why it came, it just patted its behind and left.
After confirming that the mysterious, outlandish, and shameless chuunibyou system had indeed left, 050, who was feigning weakness but was actually genuinely weak, angrily pounded the wall.
This is the 108th time I've regretted being paired with Yu Ning, that troublemaker.
