Chapter 52
Xingshi followed his three roommates back to the dormitory. After ordering takeout, he pretended to play with his phone and studied Houlaijushang carefully.
The magic circle was laid smoothly, Houlaijushang did not lose his memory, and it is currently running well.
He input a little energy into the other party and told it to check the data. He learned that the external program was also smooth, and estimated that there should be no problem.
The next step is to take away another host, put the absorbed energy into it to disguise it, and then put it back into the main system.
99 was played a round and doubted: "Will it really not turn against us if it is put back like this?"
Xingshi was very calm: "It's okay, it can't betray me."
99 and Shangshangqian knew that it was something written in the program, and they were relieved.
Later, Ju Shang was not scared this time, and said seriously: "Boss, I'm going back."
99 looked at it: "You will die."
Later, Ju Shang said: "I know."
But there are always some things in this world that cannot be scared.
Since it recovered its memory and figured out how it became a system, it decided to go back.
Not for anything else, just to find an explanation for itself.
Its tone was relaxed: "I died a long time ago. I can't help much if I stay here, Boss. At most, I will be a mascot. How can it be as satisfying as revenge?"
99 was silent for a few seconds: "You are right."
Shang Shang Qian also said "hmm". ┆Lao
Lai Ju Shang said excitedly: "So, Boss, is it their turn?"
Xing Shi said: "Soon."
Later Ju Shang was relieved: "Great!"
99 said: "...Isn't your face changing too fast? It's too ugly?"
Later Ju Shang was not afraid of it this time. He said, "Watch your attitude. I am the boss's direct descendant now, and you are just a hostile system that has tied up the wrong host. Do you understand, brother?"
99: "..."
Best fortune: "..."
Xingshi played with his phone for a while, and suddenly remembered something, and asked: "If I put you back into Yan Feng's body, can you absorb his soul energy?"
Later, Ju Shang was stunned: "Maybe?"
Xingshi said: "If I absorb him, will he be conscious?"
Later, Ju Shang thought about it: "Maybe? But for these hosts who traveled through time and space, when we leave, we will absorb their energy first and then leave. They will directly enter the energy pool, where there is no carrier, It is a pure energy flow, so even if they are dissatisfied, we can't hear any sound. But I think we only have a few soul fragments left, which are insignificant in the huge energy flow. Even if they are conscious, they are probably in a state of nightmare. "
Xing Shi said: "Then if you release him back to the main system, will he report you?"
Later, Jushang hesitated: "I don't know about this. The main system is responsible for the hosts who travel through time. We don't know the specific process. I only know that the strategy records are all in our system, and the main system will distribute them. Analyze our records as a reference for future strategies. Don't worry, boss, I have taken control and will delete all related content. "
Xingshi said: "It didn't say what would happen to the host who traveled back?"
Houlai Jushang said: "No, it ordered us to devour their soul energy as a supplement if the energy is insufficient, and it will compensate these people later. In short, no matter what happens, the priority is to ensure that we can return smoothly. What happens to the host, it doesn't let us care. "
Xingshi pondered for a moment: "Can you distinguish their soul fragments?"
The three systems said in unison: "Yes."
Later, Jushang explained: "They will have soul fluctuations, otherwise we would not think they are human, and we would have discovered the truth long ago."
Xingshi was relieved and asked: "If I send you over now, can you do it?"
Later, Jushang said happily: "Of course, you are my boss!"
Xingshi praised: "Not bad."
Later, Jushang immediately shook proudly in front of the other two.
99: "!"
Shangshangqian: "..."
99 was stimulated continuously and was unhappy. He said angrily: "Xingshi, I'll be next!"
Xingshi said: "Don't worry, you'll be the third."
The magic circle he laid for 99 was different from that of Shangshangqian and the others, so he had to accumulate more experience.
Now his brother's favorability is maintained at 88-90. They can still wait for a while. When he is transformed to 99, there will be no need to worry too much.
A moment later, the takeaway arrived. Xingshi
opened the package to solve the lunch. Halfway through the meal, he heard the phone ring. It was a message from Chai Xiaoyu.
Chai Xiaoyu: [Boss, I will send my brother to school and it will be fine. I will stay in Z city for about five days. Are you free tonight? Do you want to have dinner together? 】
Xingshi: [Okay, I'll decide the place] Chai Xiaoyu: [Let me do it.
You always treated me when I was little. Now that I've grown up, it's my turn to treat you back [laughing]] Xingshi: [It's rare for you to come to City Z. I'll treat you this time. You can treat me again if you have the chance in the future] Chai Xiaoyu: [Okay, then I won't be polite with you~] Xingshi: [Well, I'll book a restaurant and send you a seat] Chai Xiaoyu: [ok~] Xingshi put down his phone and called Shangshangqian again. They just chatted for a few sentences before their attention was diverted by the matter that came later. Other aspects have not been discussed yet. He asked, "Which city is he mainly active in now?" Shangshangqian said, "City C." Xingshi said, "Studying or working?" Shangshangqian said, "Schooling, average grades, and attending a junior college." In Xingshi's memory, Chai Xiaoyu is one year older than him. If he is a junior this year, it's time for him to find a job. He said "hmm" and then asked, "When did he and the friend next to him know each other?" Shang Shangqian said, "They were in the same high school. According to the chat records, they often played games together."
Xingshi picked up a piece of green vegetable and put it in his mouth. After a moment of silence, he asked, "Do you have any other information to add?"
Shangshangqian said, "No more."
Xingshi knew that Shangshangqian had not found anything about Chai Xiaoyu and Fu Xiuning meeting when they were children.
It was true that things that happened more than ten years ago were indeed difficult to find.
He asked, "How do you know that our two families went on a trip together?"
Shang Shang Qian said, "He mentioned this in his chat record with his mother not long ago. At that time, you were on the hot search and they talked about you."
It paused, remembering the dream that Xing Shi had told Fu Xiuning. Although it wanted to think in a positive direction, it finally added, "They also mentioned that they met a child at that time, and the three of you played together for several days."
Xing Shi said "hmm" and didn't ask anything else. After lunch, he took a break and went to the teaching building.
There was only one professional class in the afternoon. After class, he went to the company and went straight to Fu Xiuning's office, saying that he wanted to use the car in the evening.
Fu Xiuning asked, "What are you doing?"
Xingshi said, "I'm treating someone to dinner. I ran into a childhood friend at school today. He was sending his friend's brother to school to register. He happened to see me and recognized me."
He looked at Fu Xiuning and said, "Our families have traveled to the seaside together before."
Fu Xiuning paused with the document in his hand and looked up at him, "I'll take you there after work."
Xingshi said, "Okay."
He went downstairs to practice, and during the break he picked a restaurant and sent the address to Chai Xiaoyu.
At 5:30 pm, he met Fu Xiuning at the parking lot and got into the passenger seat.
Fu Xiuning opened the navigation and entered the destination, and found that it was a local specialty restaurant. There was a similar restaurant nearby, and it was also close to Z University.
He asked, "Why did you choose this store? Where is their hotel near?"
Xing Shi said, "I didn't ask them where they live. I chose this place mainly because the route is perfect."
Upon hearing this, Fu Xiuning zoomed in on the navigation, saw the hospital where Yan Feng was, and glanced at him.
Xing Shi said, "Some things can't be wasted."
Fu Xiuning knew that he had been renovating recently, so he understood what he meant in seconds and started the car and left the company.
During the evening rush hour, the road near the hospital was congested. Xing Shi got off the car halfway, walked into the hospital wearing a duckbill cap, and found the assistant who stayed there.
Yan Feng has a bad relationship with his family. He had been on the hot search before. At that time, Yan Feng directly posted a will, saying that he would donate all his money to society after his death.
This time, his family did not dare to show up to take advantage of the popularity, and the company's people have been guarding them.
The assistant was a little surprised to see him: "Why is Brother Shi here?"
Xingshi said: "I was passing by and wanted to go to the bathroom. I just came to see Brother Feng. How is he?"
The assistant sighed: "It's still the same as before."
Xingshi gave Houlai Jushang a little more energy to ensure that it could support its return trip, and let it go.
He asked: "Have you eaten?"
The assistant said: "I have eaten."
Xingshi nodded, chatted with him briefly, and noticed that Houlai Jushang had returned, so he said goodbye and left.
Houlai Jushang took the initiative to report: "I listened to you and left some energy for him. It can probably last for another day or two."
Xingshi praised it.
Houlai Jushang was very happy and asked: "Boss, do you want this energy?"
Xingshi said: "Yes."
His magic core was only activated, but it was not full yet. In addition, part of it was consumed recently, so it really needed to be replenished with new ones.
He first asked Houlai Jushang to pick out the soul fragments of Yan Feng, and then he probed into its energy reservoir to absorb a part of the energy, leaving it half.
99 looked at this scene, thinking of their plan, and suddenly felt reluctant: "It... it is leaving?"
Houlai Jushang was very firm: "Yes, I am ready."
Xingshi said: "No hurry, wait until the news of Yan Feng has subsided."
Houlai Jushang is now offline. When the news of Yan Feng's death comes out in two days, those systems will think that Yan Feng is the original owner of the B&B. Houlai Jushang found that his health was getting worse and worse, and he didn't want to wait any longer, so he left.
And through the last crazy incident, they will immediately determine that the host of the best sign is Yu Yi. If a host is curious and contacts Yu Yi, it is very likely that Yu Yi will ask if he has a system.
So this time has to be extended a little, the more confusing the message is, the better, so that those systems and hosts cannot easily judge the results.
99 breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good."
Later Ju Shang looked at it and was touched: "I didn't expect that you, a hostile system, are quite sentimental. It's not because I have to go back to deal with your master that you are worried, right?"
99 said angrily: "Get out now!"
Later Ju Shang laughed: "I'm kidding."
99 ignored it and floated away angrily.
Later Ju Shang chased after it for two steps, and with the remaining eyes he saw the soul fragments of Yan Feng wrapped in energy. He was afraid that he would roar in the next moment, and he was still frightened for a while: "Boss, this thing... I mean Yan Feng, how to deal with it?"
Xing Shi said: "Let's see if he can wake up first."
He said and left the inpatient department.
Fu Xiuning had already driven past the hospital and found a place to stop in front. When Xingshi came back, he returned to the main road.
After more than 20 minutes, they arrived at their destination.
Fu Xiuning parked the car and walked in with him.
Chai Xiaoyu had already arrived, and immediately stood up and waved when he saw Xingshi.
Fu Xiuning looked over calmly. Although he was not as fat as in the photo, he could still find some traces of his childhood. He was indeed the silly little fat boy.
As the distance got closer, he suddenly heard a familiar prompt tone.
[Ding Di]
[Current Favorability Value: -5]
His expression did not change, and he continued to move forward. [
Ding Di]
[Current Favorability Value: -6]
[Ding Di]
[Current Favorability Value: -7]
[Ding Di]
[Current Favorability Value: -8]
Fu Xiuning stopped in front of the other party.
Chai Xiaoyu: "..."
System: "!!!"
The system was shocked: "Why?"
It was a female voice with a lively tone, and at this moment it seemed very confused and aggrieved.
Chai Xiaoyu comforted him and asked Xingshi: "Who is this?"
Xingshi introduced: "My brother."
He explained: "Now when I go out, I sometimes get recognized. He was worried, so he sent me here. The road is too congested, and it will be late for him to go back to eat at this time, so he decided to eat here temporarily. But don't worry, he will not sit with us, but at a separate table, and we will eat our own food."
Chai Xiaoyu hurriedly said: "This is too troublesome, I see that there are people waiting for a table outside, why don't we eat together?"
Xingshi looked at Fu Xiuning inquiringly.
Fu Xiuning looked at him: "Okay, I have no objection."
The emotion in Xingshi's eyes suddenly deepened, and then quickly withdrew, pulled out a chair and sat down.
Chai Xiaoyu was in Z City for the first time, and the guest should follow the host's wishes.
Xingshi took the initiative to order the meal, submitted the order, and began to chat with the other party.
Chai Xiaoyu said: "My friend is also in Z City for the first time. We did some travel guides and traveled by the way. Do you have any recommendations?"
Xingshi said: "I haven't played here much, brother, you come."
Fu Xiuning then mentioned a few places to check in, all worth visiting.
Chai Xiaoyu smiled and thanked him, looked at Xingshi again, and talked about each other's recent situation.
His college only needs three years, and this year he can look for an internship while attending classes. He has not yet decided whether to continue to stay in C City to develop.
He said, "I have lived in C City since I was a child. I want to move to another city for development. Boss, will you stay in Z City in the future?"
Xingshi said, "If nothing unexpected happens."
Chai Xiaoyu said, "If I can't find a job in C City, I will come to Z City to have a look."
Xingshi smiled and said, "Okay." Chai
Xiaoyu looked at him and said, "If I really find a job in Z City, I will treat you to dinner then."
Xingshi nodded.
The three systems had nothing to do and were staring at each other.
99 said, "He secretly looked at Fu Xiuning a few times, I caught him!"
The last one said, "With such family conditions, he wants to develop in Z City. He is still the boss's former younger brother. Is he the host?"
The best sign remained silent.
99 laughed, "But Xingshi is a time traveler. It's no use for him to talk to us about our past friendship. Take him away immediately!"
Later, Jushang agreed, "That's right, no one can rival the boss! The boss is mighty and powerful!"
99 said, "Hmm!"
The best fortune: "..."
While they were talking, the food was served and the three of them ate and chatted.
Chai Xiaoyu said, "You have been good-looking since you were a child, and everyone in the community likes you. My parents said at the time that you would be a star in the future, and sure enough, you became one."
He was curious: "I thought you would directly film your uncle's movie, why did you become a trainee?"
Xingshi said, "I want to learn more. Are my uncle and aunt okay?"
Chai Xiaoyu said, "Everything is fine. Come back to City C for dinner when you have time. You were on the hot search during the summer vacation, and my mother was still talking about you."
Xingshi said, "Okay."
Chai Xiaoyu took a sip of juice, secretly glanced at Fu Xiuning again, and sighed in his mind: "Fu Xiuning...is indeed different from before."
He is one year older than Xingshi, and has not forgotten what happened that year. He remembered everything as soon as the system mentioned it.
He was a little sad: "You don't know, he used to be a very good person. He would take us out to play, buy us snacks, and teach us to swim. He was also the one who saved the boss from drowning."
The system's emotions had not yet eased, and its voice was still aggrieved: "We know that because we know it, we don't want to see him continue to become evil, so we found you."
Chai Xiaoyu said: "But he seems to think highly of my boss, will it really be bad for him?"
The system said : "Yes, dear, you have read Fu Xiuning's information. People around him will get into trouble, and he is now an antisocial personality. Maybe the more he cares about you, the more abnormal he will become. You have also heard that his favorability towards you is -8!"
Chai Xiaoyu said: "But it is not his fault that he has become like this. He has encountered too many things."
The system said: "This is his fate. What can we do? All we can do is to rescue him in time."
Chai Xiaoyu was silent.
The system said: "Can you make a decision now? Your boss may be in danger at any time. You should save him, right? Fu Xiuning saved you before, you will save him too, right?"
Chai Xiaoyu said without hesitation: "Yes!"
But... he is not smart.
He has been not smart since he was a child. He only knows how to eat and drink with the boss. He has not made much progress when he grows up. How can he protect the boss and make Fu Xiuning a good person?
He tightened his hand holding the cup: "What should I do?"
The system said: "Don't worry, we will help you."
It said: "Don't take the initiative to tell Fu Xiuning that you met when you were a child. It's better to let him find out by himself, otherwise he will suspect that you have ulterior motives. Don't tell Xingshi about Fu Xiuning. After all, you haven't seen each other for several years. Compared with you, he trusts Fu Xiuning more now. What if he lets it slip in front of Fu Xiuning? "If you say something wrong, he might do something to hurt Xingshi right away."
Chai Xiaoyu hurriedly said, "Okay, I got it."
The system said, "Let's follow the original plan. You first find a job in City Z, try to get along well with Xingshi, and then get close to Fu Xiuning through him."
Chai Xiaoyu said, "He won't attack my boss during this period, right?"
The system said, "I'm not sure, so you have to hurry up, dear."
Chai Xiaoyu took a deep breath and said, "Okay."
Fu Xiuning listened quietly, remaining calm the whole time.
The meal went quite well. During the conversation, the three learned that Chai Xiaoyu lived near Z University. After the meal, Fu Xiuning dropped him off. Chai Xiaoyu got out of the car, took one last look at Xingshi, waved and said, "Goodbye, boss."
Xingshi said, "Have fun in Z City. Give me a call if you run into any trouble."
Chai Xiaoyu smiled and said, "Okay."
Xingshi watched him walk to the hotel, then retracted his gaze and followed Fu Xiuning back home.
After he came in and changed his shoes, he went to take a shower as usual.
But before he had taken two steps, his wrist was grabbed. He was startled and turned back to look at Fu Xiuning.
Fu Xiuning carefully looked at his expression and tightened his grip slightly.
Xingshi's heart was blocked, and he instantly understood what the other party was thinking.
Fu Xiuning was thinking that due to his own relationship, his childhood playmates were affected.
It happened now, and it might happen again in the future.
If he is lucky, he will be a native, but if he is unlucky, he will be replaced by the energy of the main system and eventually die.
And Fu Xiuning has been accustomed to such things over the years.
Classmates who used to know each other will become strangers in the blink of an eye; people who have met once or twice before will suddenly reappear one day with bad intentions.
Fu Xiuning has been used to it, but he is just worried about him.
Just afraid that he will be sad.
Even...feeling guilty.
Xingshi shouted: "Brother."
Fu Xiuning said "um" softly.
Xingshi walked over and hugged him tightly.
Fu Xiuning's eyes suddenly deepened, and he held the back of his head tightly in his arms.
[Ding Di]
[Current Favorability: 90]
[Ding Di]
[Current Favorability: 91]
Xing Shi suddenly pushed him away, held his hand and sang to him affectionately.
Fu Xiuning: "..."
Three systems: "..."
The broadcast of the favorability did not sound again, and stopped at 91.
Fu Xiuning was interrupted like this, and all his emotions disappeared for a moment, and he said: "Go take a shower."
Xing Shi smiled and hugged him again: "Let's chat later."
Fu Xiuning watched him go, until his figure disappeared, and then went back to the bedroom.
99 Looking at this favorability, although I think it's not good to be so high, I still can't help but want to ship CP.
It made a "tsk" sound: "If you hadn't interrupted by singing, who knows how much the male college students' clearness would have risen."
Shang Shang Qian was not optimistic about this either, but was able to evaluate objectively: "The higher the favorability value, the slower it rises."
Later, Ju Shang agreed: "Yes, it will be harder to increase as time goes by, so it stopped quickly this time."
99 disagreed: "Who said that? You don't understand. It's very hard to control the male college students when they are excited. They are so clear. They used to bite each other, but now they hug each other, and their clarity increases immediately. They are worthy of being half-brothers."
Xing Shi stood under the shower with his eyes closed, digesting his emotions just now, and asked: "Want to rebel?"
99 immediately muted it.
Later, Jushang suddenly became angry: "It's outrageous. How can a system tease the host like this! Do you have any professional ethics? Do you still have the boss in your eyes! It is worthy of being a system of the enemy force, but it has no quality!"
99: "?" The best
lottery: "..."
Later, Jushang was heartbroken: "Boss, there is no order without rules! Isn't this worth a beating with energy flow?"
99: "!"
The best lottery: "..."
