Cannon Fodder Counterattack System (Twenty-nine)

"Wow, wife!"

Shang Li noticed the movement on the bed and immediately broke away from the tangle with No. 2. He threw himself in front of Cui Lan with a "bang", and woke up the man who was still a little dazed.

"You finally woke up!"

He spread his legs and sat on the other's belly. He held the deep-cut face with his hands and looked at it carefully with his eyelids lowered. "That guy didn't do anything to you in his sleep, did he?"

It had been a long time since Cui Lan had been stared at so intently by a pair of bright red eyes. She was stunned for two seconds before she pinched Shang Li's face and shook it twice.

"Nothing, just took a nap."

He responded gently.

The fair-skinned palm moved up, pressed firmly on the back of the ghost's head, and then rubbed the delicate and smooth hair.

"Yeah."

Shang Li responded vaguely, and then agreed with a pitiful expression.

Seeing that the two people on the bed were about to get intimate with each other as if no one was around, No. 2, who had already patted his body and stood up, suddenly coughed lightly, "Pay attention, there is a living being watching next to you, don't treat me as an outsider."

“…”

Cui Lan raised his eyelids and looked at No. 2.

Not long ago, when he was holding down the guy with a crew cut and planning to knock him out before going to support Shang Li in dealing with Chen Jin, the guy who should have been holding down the short-haired girl from a distance suddenly appeared out of nowhere and lay directly on the body of the guy with a crew cut, blocking the place where the long knife was supposed to fall.

"!"

Cui Lan was caught off guard and forced the attack to deflect, causing the tip of the knife, which was unable to control its force, to penetrate deeply into the ground nearby.

This gives number two an opportunity.

The young man raised his head abruptly and met Cui Lan's gaze. A bright red light flashed in his dark pupils.

The next moment, Cui Lan found that he had lost all his senses, as if he had fallen into a dark, lightless, endless abyss.

This trick again...

Fortunately, he was familiar with Shang Li's abilities, so he didn't panic.

In this situation, any impact on the outside world is beyond his control. In addition, he can't attack indiscriminately like he did in the school rift before. It is better to just take a nap and put his hope on others.

Cui Lan felt lucky that he managed to wake up intact after more than an hour of light sleep. Shang Li was also jumping around beside him, pulling his sleeve with his left hand and pointing at his other self behind him with his right hand, complaining, "He is so annoying. He wants to lock us up here forever."

"What are you going to do?"

Cui Lan held You Ling's head and pulled him to his side, then asked.

"If you are talking about serious matters, then I can only say that it is not yet time to reveal the truth."

Number Two pulled a chair for himself and answered leisurely, "But don't worry, everything will be settled in a few days, and it won't be too late to explain it in detail then."

"It must be Xiao Jiang's system task."

The weight on his head made Shang Li lie half-lying on the bed. He lowered his head to play with Cui Lan's hair while slowly guessing, "You two are planning to complete the system mission and break through the world barrier so that you can take advantage of the opportunity..."

Having said this, he suddenly realized something, and immediately swallowed the rest of his words and stopped talking.

Number Two also extended two index fingers and crossed them in front of his lips. "Pssst, we just need to keep it in mind. If we are accidentally discovered by 'you know who', all our previous efforts will go to waste."

"Where do you and Jiang Mingyu get the confidence to think you can do this?" Shang Li raised his eyebrows, "When the time comes, he will kill you with just one finger..."

"Aren't you still here?"

Number Two interrupted him with a smile, "Even if we fail, the world can still restart and reach another timeline."

"But if successful, all future timelines will simply disappear."

Cui Lan crossed his arms and joined the two Shang Li's nonsense. "By then, all of us may collapse because of the misunderstanding."

"No, no, no, the only ones in danger are the three heads of the Superpower Bureau."

Number Two shook his fingers, "You won't, Cui Lan. As a time traveler brought by 031, you don't belong to any future timeline."

Then, he looked at Shang Li again, "You won't do that either, kid. The world has long regarded you as a system. How do you say that... You are no longer in the Five Elements and have escaped from the Six Realms."

He chuckled twice, "Completely free."

Shang Li: “…”

Number Two finished talking about the people in the room one by one, and then started talking about the people outside the room.

"Xiao Jiang has his own plans. As the boss here, I have no right to interfere. As for the guy named Lu... the container has already been prepared."

"Why in this timeline?"

Cui Lan asked: "If it's just to defeat Him."

"Um?"

Number Two blinked his obsidian eyes and said, "Because I want to live my life to the fullest, that's the simple reason."

"According to what Mr. Lu said, this timeline is very close to the time when the world will restart."

He raised his hand and pointed at Shang Li, "In a few days, I will restore my appearance settings with one click and become him."

"But now that I know this information, I have to make changes."

As soon as the words fell, the room fell silent.

Cui Lan lowered her head and silently began to untie the small braid that someone had unknowingly braided for her.

"By the way, is there a possibility?" After a while, Shang Li suddenly spoke.

"Is it because your operation failed that this timeline will be restarted?"

——

On the other side, the only person left in the living room was Jiang Mingyu, who was drinking tea.

A young man in a white robe opened the door and quietly poked his head out of the room.

Jiang Mingyu didn't turn around, but seemed to have seen every move behind him.

"They're gone."

“…”

Lu Yao, who belonged to this timeline, returned to the living room silently, walked to the tea table and poured himself a glass of water.

While moving, one could vaguely see the faint marks of the two joints on the wrist through the wide white cuffs.

"It's almost time."

After he finished a glass of water, Jiang Mingyu suddenly said, "You will be able to leave here soon. When that happens, I will directly withdraw from your life. You can go wherever you want and do whatever you want."

“…”

"With this puppet body?" Xiao Lu raised his eyelids and responded in a low voice.

"You seem very unhappy about this?"

Jiang Mingyu gently placed the teacup on the delicate little plate and said, "When the puppeteer's skills improve, I'll get you a better one."

"I just hope you can give my body and him back to me." Xiao Lu said.

Jiang Mingyu did not comment.

"What do you plan to do with those people just now?" Xiao Lu asked again.

He raised his chin slightly and made malicious guesses, "Fuel? Scapegoat? Container?"

"My dear, this is not something you should think about."

Jiang Mingyu responded calmly, imitating the appearance of the man in his memory.

“…”

"Come to think of it, I'm curious, since your memory is not affected by the reboot and remains in your mind."

He paused, then continued with a smile: "So in the future timeline, you chose so strongly to make me an ordinary person who knows nothing..."

"Isn't it just to prevent what's happening now?"

Hearing this, Xiao Lu gritted his teeth and said, "You shouldn't ask me this."

"Well, shouldn't you think the same way?"

Xiao Lu sneered, "Huh? Then why don't you and I...Jiang Mingyu here have the same idea?"

“After all, the experiences are very different.”

Jiang Mingyu tilted his head.

In this timeline, nothing happened.

Shang Li neither died in the forward timeline nor was he abducted by a time traveler in the backward timeline.

"The 'Jiang Mingyu' in this timeline is the most carefree."

Initially, he chose to enter the entertainment industry simply because he wanted to make himself as active as possible on public platforms and in the public eye.

In this way, Cui Lan can easily know that she is living a good life.

But his idea of ​​continuing to live such a peaceful life quickly changed after he signed with Lu Yao's company.

Jiang Mingyu found that although the boss's attitude was cold, his eyes were always vaguely on him.

The two of them went to the same junior high school in the past, so they knew each other, but they were not familiar with each other.

After not seeing each other for so many years, Jiang Mingyu's youthful feelings had long been worn away. Of course, she would not easily think that the great Prince Lu would suddenly fall in love with her.

But there is no doubt that the man really cares about his every move.

So after various secret tests, he discovered that Lu Yao seemed to have the ability to "foresee" the future, and had a certain interest in Cui Lan.

This was the first time that Jiang Mingyu felt strongly about what he could do.

Others thought that he was pursuing Lu Yao because he wanted to be supported - it was undeniable that Jiang Mingyu did have that kind of feelings for Lu Yao, but more importantly, he was asking him to help Cui Lan.

But how to find Cui Lan who was away became another problem.

Fortunately, four years ago, he was finally chosen by the guest from outside that day, allowing the man with silver eyes to appear in front of him again.

After the attack, Cui Lan was worried about his injuries, so he secretly went to visit the patient at night, but was caught by someone who had been waiting for him for a long time.

With the help of the younger brother and the target, the two sides successfully reached a cooperation at an incredible speed and began to hunt the time travelers together.

Jiang Mingyu originally thought that as a "major contributor", he could participate as an accomplice, but he didn't expect that the first thing the two of them did was to push him out of the plan.
