Chapter 53 Keep Your Distance
A few days later, a notification was received in the Group B guide work group.
This Friday, a grand ball will be held on the 69th floor of the White Tower to welcome a leader from the central government.
Ji Zi thought that this leader who caused a sensation in the White Tower was probably the most handsome man in the Federation as mentioned by Gu Xun.
After having lunch in the cafeteria in the morning, she was on her way back to the comfort room.
Suddenly I was bumped into by a few sentries who were in a hurry and overheard what they were saying.
Black Tower Riot, Dark Sentinel, that sort of thing.
Looking at the clothes of those sentries, they are not like those we usually see outside the comfort room. They are dressed in special clothes.
After returning to the comfort room, she inquired about the news about the black tower.
Only then did I realize that the internet was already flooded with discussions about the imprisoned "last dark sentinel of the era", "the war machine of the human world", and "the only SSS-level sentinel in the entire galaxy" who was about to be released from prison.
It is said that because he could not find a suitable guide for a long time, the Federation contacted several of the few S-level high-level guides in the interstellar space, but the matching degree with him was only 6%, which was far from reaching the index of deep comfort.
Ji Zi flipped through it and thought that she seemed to have never matched with anyone, but as of now, there had been no adverse reactions.
Through these days of study, she has realized it.
As long as the guide's level is definitely higher than the sentinel's level, there will be no incompatibility. In other words, the guide's level is the key factor in determining the compatibility with the sentinel.

Someone actually revealed that this Dark Sentinel sensed that he was about to be distorted due to the pollution in his brain, so he took the initiative to submit an application for dark imprisonment to the Federation.
This time, the Sentinel applied for release from prison because his rage index had successfully dropped by several percentage points.
Seeing this, Ji Zi already understood almost everything.
This piece of news is a bit boring. I thought I would see some explosive news, but it turned out to be just a sentry who was sent to prison because of depression, and now he wants to be released from prison.
After comforting the three A-level sentries in the afternoon, the clock had unknowingly reached the time to get off work.
Ji Zi escorted the person out of the comfort room.
"Guide Ji, thank you."
"You're welcome. This is what I should do."
The sentry bowed repeatedly and said shyly, "I'm a sentry from the Second Military District. Last time, I saw you from afar in the mirage contaminated area..."
"Next what?" Qi Yi's voice came from a distance.
Ji Zi looked up and saw Wen Ye was there too.
Ever since they came back from their last mission, these two have been elusive and haven't been seen for a long time.
The already nervous sentry's face changed drastically when he saw the commander of his military zone. "No, nothing. I just wanted to thank Guide Ji in person for his timely assistance last time."
Wen Ye's face was as gloomy as water and his eyes were as sharp as torches.
"Has training been easy lately?"
"No, no, I will go back and continue training." The sentry said, saluted, and quickly disappeared at the end of the corridor.
The sudden arrival of Qi Yi and Wen Ye also attracted the attention of many guides.
The corridor was filled with the sound of the sentries saluting respectfully, without interruption.
This caused many guides from Group B to peek over and take a look.
Ji Zi packed up her things, closed the door, and was about to leave when she heard Meng Fan's voice greeting her from the end.
"Senior Ji, are you getting off work?"
"Yeah." She smiled and asked casually, "Aren't you leaving yet?"
Meng Fan was holding a furry cloth bag in his hand. "I'm waiting for a friend. We've agreed to go pick out a dress."
Outside the White Tower, there is a commercial area designated for guides and sentries.
Generally, any needs can be met there.
Although Ji Zi had never been there, Qi Yi took over Meng Fan's words in a familiar manner.
"What a coincidence, are we going the same way? We're just about to pick up Xiao Zi to order an evening gown there."
"Evening dress?" she asked in surprise.
Qi Yi walked forward and naturally took her hand, "Yeah, didn't you inform us that we had to attend the party on Friday?"
"Oh, I've been notified."
She felt a little uneasy and pushed Qi Yi's hand away uncomfortably.
She had been close to him when she was on a mission before, but that was work after all, so Ji Zi naturally attributed those behaviors to work.
Now we are going back to the White Tower, and in front of so many people.
Qi Yi was stunned for a moment, looked down at his hands, and then changed the subject.
Meng Fan knew that Ji Zi had tagged both of them, so he wisely chose not to be a third wheel.
Ji Zi walked between the two of them and stepped into the elevator. The temporarily enclosed space made her feel as helpless as if she were caught in a sandwich.
"Xiao Zi." Qi Yi still managed to maintain a good sense of propriety when outside.
He won't be as clingy and out of control as when he holds her in private.
"Hmm?" She looked up at him. "What's wrong?"
A few strands of Qi Yi's soft silver hair fell down, covering his pitiful eyes.
"fine."
He didn't dare ask.
I didn't dare ask her why she suddenly distanced herself from me.
Compared to the many thoughts in Qi Yi's mind, Wen Ye was very quiet, as quiet as a pool of stagnant water, with no reaction at all.
He was like a robot going about his business, accompanying her to the business district without any emotion.
As soon as Qi Yi entered the store, she picked out several evening dresses of different colors with ease.
This era is a hundred times more developed than the 21st century in which Ji Zi lives.
All fabrics are designed and cut using artificial intelligence, which effectively shortens design time and labor consumption, and improves efficiency.
The evening gowns you choose are based on the predetermined color and style, combined with the measurements taken on site, so that within ten minutes you can present a variety of options that will never be the same as others.
This was also the first time that Ji Zi saw this kind of high technology.
I was so surprised that I couldn't close my mouth.
The designed samples are also renewable and recyclable. If you don’t like them, you can just throw them into the recycling basket after trying them on.
It is both convenient and environmentally friendly.
She tried several in a row.
Qi Yidu shook his head, "It feels like something is missing."
Ji Zi looked at herself in the mirror and saw her tall figure with hot curves. It was the figure she had dreamed of in her previous life, and now she finally got it in this life. God has mercy on her. With this figure, she would look good even if she was covered with a piece of rag.
I don’t know what Qi Yi is picking?
Until she changed into the last outfit, a black strapless dress with a bud-shaped skirt and a few small white flowers sewn with pearls at the waist.
It is simple and elegant yet retains a touch of cuteness.
It perfectly shows off her figure.
Qi Yi didn't say anything this time, but just added special requirements to the machine.
Soon, a silver-purple ribbon was designed.
Qi Yi personally tied the ribbon around her graceful neck like a white swan, and the hanging ribbon happened to cover the fullness of her chest.
He snapped his fingers, "Alright!"
