Chapter 59, Scene 17, Tell me, you saw in my memory...
"Good evening?"
He Yuezhe raised his hand and tentatively greeted the boy.
The young man frowned, staring at her arm, and said coldly: "You...are not going to explain?"
He Yuezhe tilted his head and thought about it, then shook his head.
"I don't plan to." Her face darkened.
"Boss, aren't you being too stingy? I just lent you an arm. Do you really want it back?"
“…”
"Who told you I really wanted that arm?" The young man, with his smooth black hair slightly covering his eyes, looked oddly well-behaved in the dim light.
He Yuezhe stretched out the last syllable and said, "Oh—then I feel relieved!"
"Host, this guy looks dangerous. Is it really okay for you to... tease him like this?"
"Tease? Humph, I honestly believed it back then."
"So, boss, why are you walking here in the middle of the night instead of sleeping?" He Yuezhe followed the young man's pace and asked curiously.
The boy glanced at her with a puzzled look in his eyes: "This is my factory."
"oops."
"You seem to dislike me?"
"How could that be? But, Boss, your factory is thriving, and your life is so fulfilling, so why can't you sleep at night?"
"Hey! I didn't—"
"oh?"
"…What exactly do you want to say?"
"What do I want to say? Ah, boss, it seems that your factory's screening work is not very good."
"You're meddling too much."
"I just want to chat with you, is that not okay? Boss, you're being too unkind."
“…”
"boss?"
"If you dare to speak in that tone again, I'll cut your vocal cords."
"I see."
"Be quiet, I don't want to start a fight here."
"oh oh."
^
"Good morning!"
"Good morning."
"Host, I haven't slept all night. I'm really sleepy..."
"I'm glad I'm not sleepy."
"166954801, good morning."
"Good morning."
He Yuezhe smiled and greeted everyone she met along the way before arriving at her workplace.
This way everyone should know me, right?
He Yuezhe smiled.
"But as long as I'm awake, can't your system rest?" She chatted with the system boredly while packing her lunch box.
"Yeah, it's always like this."
"So, host, it's better for you to go to bed early and get up early every day. Otherwise, look at how pitiful I am, wahh ...
The system seemed to have turned into a small fluffy ball, rubbing against the busy robotic arm.
"I should have told you that I wasn't the one packing the lunch boxes."
The plush ball froze in mid-air upon hearing this. It became visibly flustered, darting around.
If it had a physical body, He Yuezhe estimated that it could directly smash the transmission machine to pieces.
"Hello?"
“Ooo ...
"Oh my god, you are this ball?"
“Aa ...
"Could you please go away and stop disturbing me while I'm working?"
"Host, she can actually see me!"
"Yeah, she can actually see you!"
"Host, I didn't expect that technology has become so advanced that Miss still has to come and work in person."
"Wait, 'technology is so advanced'? What year is it now?"
"3,3915."
“…So, I’ve been dead for over a thousand years?!”
"ah??"
"Wow."
…
"Oh, I see."
"You understand, can you tell me more?"
"Uh, isn't it true that she died over a thousand years ago?"
"I just had a dream! Don't talk nonsense!"
"Also, my self-awareness is very weak, and I'll probably lose my memory the next time we meet, so you two, stop pretending to be ghosts and scaring me!"
"Did you understand?"
"Yeah! But next time we meet, I might say something really annoying. Miss Yue, don't you mind?"
"Hmph, you can try."
"Host, you don't want to—?!"
"Shhh."

"It's time to deliver the meal—"
"Please ask the catering staff to gather at the center of the factory and start assigning tasks immediately—"
"Put it again—"
"It's time to deliver the meal—"
"Catering please..."
"good afternoon."
"166954801, good afternoon."
The girl was still standing at the window, her tone steady, and the professional attire she was wearing made her posture even more upright.
She smiled and pushed out a plate, but the style of the box on it had changed a little.
"Hello, number 166954801."
"Your progress for today's Task 1 is 37811/1500. Here is your funds for today, a total of 37811 yuan. Please check."
"Connect the data cable to your box and wait 3 seconds to complete the check."
"You'll laugh." He Yuezhe pulled the data cable on the box and quickly completed the check.
"Of course." The girl smiled, her voice soft.
"Host, I'm serious!"
"I know, you mean 'She's clearly from the previous world,' right?"
"Yes, host! She really looks exactly like the two girls standing in front of that company in the previous world!"
"—Oh yeah, Traffic Light Company!"
"Don't you think this world has many secrets, even you don't know them?"
"...Host, what does this mean?"
"Tell me, what did you see in my memory?"
"Host, our system cannot see the host's memory!"
"real!"
"I will never lie to you about this!!"
"……snort."
…
Seeing He Yuezhe put away the black box, the girl pulled back the plate and pushed out another one.
"Okay, since you've been designated as a dedicated delivery worker, you will only have one delivery mission."
"Here is your lunch box, over there is the door. Once you enter, you will be automatically teleported outside the factory."
"Please note, do not communicate with humans outside the factory, do not communicate with humans outside the factory, do not communicate with humans outside the factory!"
It's so scary.
How many times a day do I say something like this?
Oh, he counted it for me, and it's about 13,000 times a day, a very scary number.
How long have I been awake?
Oh, he also calculated it for me, and it’s been about 130 years.
Oh, he said I have a special affinity with the number “13”.
But where I live, people think 13 is an unlucky number.
Maybe he was saying I was unlucky.
Do virtual people like me also have a place of origin?
Haha, I feel like laughing, sorry.
Oh, I'll laugh?
You have to know that this is unbelievable for a virtual person.
So you can make your request and I will give you the best reward I can.
What, looking for someone?
This isn't my specialty, but I might as well give it a try.
My name...
Just call me "Number 12".
That's a good name, thank you.
Yes, I have a good friend, his name is "Number 13".
Haha, what you say is really interesting.
Well, thank you for your well wishes.
Me too... wish you good luck.

"Welcome to the department store!"
At the entrance of the shop.
The boy's face was filled with smiles, and he was holding a long roll of red paper in his arms. He greeted without turning his head.
He Yuezhe leaned over and saw the red paper the boy had pasted on the door frame.
She slowly read out: "Green vegetables, radish, brown rice, clay pot of Tianshui chrysanthemum tea... What is this?"
"Oh, oh oh oh oh!" The boy seemed to be startled, and the bench he was standing on slipped, "W-what?!"
He Yuezhe hurriedly supported him.
The hard mechanical arm was very light, and the boy's back, where he could hardly feel the flesh, collided with the metal. The pain made him cry out softly, and he quickly covered his mouth.
"Um, thank you." The boy's eyelashes trembled, and the strength of his hand supporting the mechanical arm weakened a little, and he jumped down lightly.
"Oh right, today is February 1st, 3915, and the Spring Festival is coming soon..."
"Okay, how about it? Doesn't this make it look more festive?"
"Spring Festival?" He Yuezhe asked curiously.
How could there be such a thing as the Spring Festival in this world?
The boy was stunned. He suddenly clapped his hands and turned his eyes away embarrassedly.
"You, you don't know? It's a family reunion day. If you're free in a few days, you can come and have a meal together."
“Just treat it as being with your family, it’s fun!”
"I'll go in first. Time is tight." He Yuezhe changed the subject and walked into the door.
"Hey, hey, hey, come on, give me a reply, are you coming to eat or not?" The boy chased for a few steps and suddenly bumped into the mechanical arm.
His head was grabbed and his feet were immediately lifted off the ground.
"You guys..." He Yuezhe pulled the boy around like he was playing with clay, looking him around. "Are you some illegal actor organization?"
…
"Okay, that's 19 yuan in total. Welcome to visit us next time!"
The owner of the department store was surnamed Yang, and after He Yuezhe found out, he started calling him Boss Yang.
Boss Yang's items are all 19 yuan each, he is fair to everyone and the quality is top-notch.
He Yuezhe quickly paid the bill, picked up the plush bear pendant she had specially purchased, and thanked Boss Yang: "See you next time."
"Will you come to dinner on the 14th?" Boss Yang smiled and sat back in his rocking chair.
"Don't go."
"But I haven't eaten with my 'family' yet."
"...It's up to you then."
"But let me make it clear first, I haven't fully recovered yet. If anything happens, I won't care about you."
"Of course, of course."
"Come on, Boss Yang invited me so kindly, how could I not come?"
He Yuezhe nodded, turned and walked out of the store.

"Host, I've always been curious, why do you keep saving these worlds?"
"Are you sure you want to tell me this in the dark?"
"Host, the answers to some things are hidden, but someone must know it."
"Otherwise, I'll die... Host!!"
"You haven't finished writing the question yet, where can I find the answer for you?"
He Yuezhe leaned on the seat in the pipe and moved forward quickly. In the darkness, she seemed to be in an unusually good mood.
With her eyes wide open, all the darkness was taken in by her gaze.
"And I just realized that the two worlds you chose for me both have unknown plot lines."
"Isn't this against the rules?"
"You, no, could it be that someone really wants to kill me?"
"Host...you also read forums."
"Oh, right, 'Truth is built on death.' Now I can finally agree with this statement."
He Yuezhe couldn't help but laugh out loud: "Hahahahahahahahaha..."
"If you're not ready, you can kill me now."
"By exchanging one life for another, you can live forever!"
