Chapter 98
The young man's words made the official team present feel as if they had seen a benefactor.
And after they read the interrogation record recorded by the young man, they looked at Gu Youxing as if he were their adoptive parents.
"Secretary Gu, you've been a great help!" The leader of the official team is a middle-aged man with golden brown hair. Long-term desk work, coupled with the pressure from his superiors, makes his eye bags appear dark and heavy, and his sparse hair further proves the ability of this office worker.
Now, this leader of the office workers is looking at Gu Youxing with gratitude with his eyes full of bags under his eyes.
The leader of the official investigation team was named Marcus, and the news he got from Gu Youxing was the first good news he had received in recent times.
Only God knows how much pressure he has been under during this period. Not long after the incident, they received an order to rush to the luxury cruise ship, control the situation at the scene, and confiscate the communication equipment of everyone present.
When they finally got away from those troublesome rich people and politicians, the surveillance video forced them to work overtime again. Now Marcus hadn't slept for almost 24 hours and was extremely tired.
However, even so, his superiors did not let him go. The congressmen were like crazy, urging the investigation team to come up with the results as soon as possible. But how exactly were they going to come up with the results?
Xie Yuanzhi seemed to have evaporated from the face of the earth, and the humanoid weapon that carried Xie Yuanzhi away was covered by goggles and a mask, leaving only a pair of long legs.
He did the body shape matching like looking for a needle in a haystack, and the result was a few hundred candidates! This was just the people in country A who had their body shape data collected. He couldn't even find any information for the people in that world to compare their body shapes with!
——Not to mention that judging from the conversation, the humanoid weapon doesn’t look like someone from this world at all.
In this mess, it was so difficult for him to make even a small progress.
Fortunately, Secretary Gu is still as reliable as ever!
"...Then you can interrogate them first. I can't get too close to these people with my current status."
The young man said this with an apologetic look on his face.
Marcus's eyes were also filled with regret.
According to common sense, this matter should be the responsibility of their Environmental Monitoring Administration.
Who asked them to merge with the Special Species Management Bureau?
But now, because of an invitation from the Xie family, both Director Yang and Secretary Gu were under suspicion—even if Director Yang really went to the banquet purely on a whim.
From the expression on Secretary Gu's face, it can be seen that he is really not used to the means of mutual trust in upper-class society.
——After all, it is related to an underage girl, and this kind of thing is really beyond the bottom line of humanity.
When Marcus learned that Secretary Gu had already discussed with Director Yang that after the ceremony he would immediately contact the professional association and the Xie family to discuss leaving, regret was revealed in his eyes.
The humanoid weapon arrived too quickly. If it had been 10 minutes later, Secretary Gu and Yang Ju might not have been in such a passive position.
...But perhaps it will cause even more suspicion.
Marcus thought about it, said goodbye to Secretary Gu, and walked directly into the interrogation room.
In the interrogation room, Xie Pingyuan was sitting on a chair, sweating profusely, with a distracted look and looking quite vulnerable. If a soft-hearted person was standing here, he would probably have already started to appease the other party.
Unfortunately, Marcus, who has worked for Country A for decades, has a harder heart than anyone else.
"So, Mr. Xie Pingyuan, let's talk about your stock trading ability that seemed to predict the future two years ago."
*
Just as Xie Pingyuan was being tortured by the professional personnel of the official investigation team, the young man who had left the interrogation room walked towards the room where he was imprisoned.
Unlike other personnel who were not allowed to move around in the interrogation room, the official investigation team determined that the young man had nothing to do with the incident because of his special abilities and all of his communication equipment were quite "clean."
——He even tripped Xie Yuanzhi up before, and the piece of land that is still in Nan Yuan's hands is the one that the young man reminded Xie Pingyuan of out of friendship.
Although the young man did not know that Xie Pingyuan would use such a heavy hand, it did not prevent others from thinking that there was a grudge between the young man and Xie Yuanzhi.
This is why he can move freely on this floor, and of course only this floor.
The young man obediently returned to the room where he was imprisoned, closed the door, and fell on the bed, closing his eyes looking very tired.
The surveillance footage showed that the young man was normal, even his tired eyes showed no flaws.
However……
The young man closed and opened his eyes, and the scene in front of him changed.
"Congratulations to the host! Xie Yuanzhi's role-playing mission has been completed! Evaluation level SS+!"
777 rained golden rain on the entire consciousness space while revealing the personal panel of his host.
Personal panel
Name: [Gu Youxing (Number of activated avatars: 6)]
Age: [28]
Current identity: [Xie Yuanzhi (25)]
The plot world: ["After rebirth, I reached the peak of my life. I sorted it out late at night" (click here for the original text)]
Task progress bar:
- Overall mission: [Get rid of cannon fodder status and reach the pinnacle of life]
- Current mission: ["Reach the pinnacle of life"]
- Mission objective: [Get rid of the protagonist and reach the pinnacle of life!]
- Mission Progress: [100/100]
- Current sentiment value: [1874115457]
- [Store Entrance]
System summary: "Host! You! Are the god of pretense! Although it is quite tacky to show off your other identity when you are at the lowest point in your life and slap your enemy in the face at his highest point, being tacky to the extreme is cool!"]
Gu Youxing was covered in golden rain from 777, but after all, he completed a mission and was happy for a rare time, so he forgave 777.
However, it seems that the degree of mission completion and mission performance were very high this time, so the system actually spoke some human words.
Gu Youxing was a little surprised when he saw the system summary, but then he was blinded by the generous task rewards.
[General rewards: Gold, silver and jewelry exchange x100, universal currency exchange x1000, various technical courses (including all weapons) courses ten years after the current modern time node...]
The universal currency exchange for gold, silver and jewelry made Gu Youxing's eyes light up instantly. Although his funds were sufficient recently, no one would complain about having too much money, right?
As long as he has enough funds, he can use money to pave the way even if his identity is exposed.
The system seemed to sense Gu Youxing's desire for money, and the following special reward made Gu Youxing's eyes widen.
[Special rewards: vest x1 (open in four days), vest x1 (open in eight days), overbearing boss's black card x1, Zhongmei Halo·Dianjia x1, world aid x2...]
"What's the matter with the two accounts? Why is one opened 4 days later and the other 8 days later?" Gu Youxing was a little confused.
777 explained: "Because it is to prevent the two vests from colliding with each other, causing the host to be unable to deal with the affairs of the two worlds in time, and the next world will become more and more dangerous, the four days are also to give the host a buffer time."
After listening to this, Gu Youxing nodded thoughtfully.
"According to 777, the world will become stronger and stronger, and the same mission will become more and more difficult..."
Gu Youxing slowly turned his gaze to the two special items and his more than one billion emotional value deposits.
Maybe he can use these props to cheat this time?
Gu Youxing thought about it and clicked on the introduction of two special props.
[The Overlord's Black Card: 'A Overlord's Black Card, with so much money in it that you can buy anything for sale in the world - as long as you are not another stubborn protagonist in the Overlord's novel.']
Gu Youxing's mouth twitched as he looked at the introduction of this prop.
"Host, don't be fooled by this introduction. This is one of the most difficult items to pull out. Infinite funds means invincibility to some extent. After using this item, you have to say the lines provided by the black card to successfully activate it."
777 explained seriously.
Gu Youxing listened to the last condition, and the corners of his mouth, which had been twitching, became even more difficult to suppress. Fortunately, this line did not require other people to hear it, otherwise, no matter how useful this thing was, Gu Youxing would not use it.
After all, if his character collapses, will it be the system's fault or his?
Gu Youxing suppressed the twitching corners of his mouth and clicked on the introduction of the next special prop.
——In fact, Gu Youxing was not very optimistic about this prop. After all, it just looked like a vase prop.
And judging from the introduction, this prop is really a vase.
[The Halo of Beauty·Dianjia: "It is well known that some of the Dianjia harem are just fashion accessories, but they can wear fluorescent purple suits and leopard print stockings beautifully. Their looks and figures can only be said to be quite resistant to criticism."]
"Can it only make people more beautiful?"
Gu Youxing frowned when he saw the prop, but 777 on the side made a voice of disapproval.
"Host, this item does not restrict the age and gender of the user. Moreover, host, this halo of beauty has the word '众' in it, which means it is a group attack!"
Gu Youxing's brows relaxed a little now. If the group beauty promotion was used well, it would be a good means of alienating people.
“However, this halo does have a side effect. After using it, all those who are enveloped by this halo will have their IQ lowered, commonly known as losing their brains. Otherwise, this prop can definitely be sold at a high price of 200 million.” 777 said with regret.
However, when he heard what 777 said, Gu Youxing's eyes lit up.
"...Xiao Qi, this is not called a side effect, it should be called its real effect."
Gu Youxing looked at the halo with a smile, and there was no trace of the previous disdain in his eyes.
"What a useful intelligence-reducing halo."
*
With 777's sudden realization, Gu Youxing finished studying the two props, sorted out all the ordinary rewards, and put aside all the resources needed for the next plan. Gu Youxing then sat back on the sofa with a smile and began to write the next plan.
By the way, improve the positioning of the organization.
777 was actually moved by Gu Youxing before the review, and from time to time he asked Gu Youxing about his thoughts in order to provide additional information.
"...Host, Sheng Xingsi put on a height-increasing pad and a tactical vest to change his body shape. This is probably to avoid being recognized."
"Yes, Sheng Xingsi's mission has not been completed, and Wen Li..." Gu Youxing said with a sigh.
"Wen Li has a great body, but because her body is so great, it is also quite iconic. When we compare them, there is still a chance that she will be discovered."
Although he could use his alibi to prove that he had never been to the scene, Gu Youxing was very wary of any situation where the truth might be revealed.
"I see. But the madman you played is really realistic, whether it's his perverted and twisted tone or his unpredictable neurotic behavior, he is just like a fighting madman. Do you have a reference?"
777 said with great admiration. Although he knew that his host had excellent acting skills, he was still shocked to see that he could act to this extent at any time.
"After all, my face wasn't shown, so it's normal for me to act a little exaggerated. But I do have reference objects..."
Gu Youxing felt a sense of relief when he recalled the combat maniacs from other bases who had died at his hands.
Those fighting maniacs don't just kill one kind of person, they also fight against other people of their own kind, which is why they are eliminated.
Having this ability, instead of working for the continuation of the human race, they extend their evil claws to their own kind. Even a base that follows the most jungle law cannot tolerate this.
But fortunately, these people were not completely useless and they did provide him with some materials.
"By the way, host, why didn't you explain to the Xie family that this was all just a script and you didn't take them seriously at all?"
777 looked at the two vests chatting in unison, leaving the Xie family members aside completely, and asked with some confusion.
“The truth has been revealed during the conversation, and I have also planted a hidden stake, Shen Nanye.”
Gu Youxing revised the panel and said, "For the Xie family, my complete disregard actually proves the credibility of my conversation. What's more..."
Gu Youxing stopped writing and said, "A person who truly holds a high position will never look back at the so-called mission targets after completing a mission."
"Because he knows that in the future, these people will not appear in his life at all."
Gu Youxing shrugged, writing and drawing as he said, "So the Xie family is not worth Xie Yuanzhi's trouble to explain. Xie Yuanzhi doesn't even need to take action. Country A's suspicion alone is enough to seriously damage the Xie family. Wait..."
He hesitated for a moment and continued, "...after that, the Xie family will never appear in front of Xie Yuanzhi. After all, Country A is also afraid of angering Xie Yuanzhi."
"Yes, sometimes ignoring is already a means of attack. If a real big shot takes action personally, it will only lose its identity and get its hands dirty. In fact, it only takes one word, and other forces that want to curry favor with the big shot will do the job themselves."
777 said as he wrote down the host's words.
777 recorded which behaviors of the host were deterrents and which were threatening, and finished the review with a look of satisfaction. Then, they began to discuss what the host should do next.
"What else can we do? Even if Xie Yuanzhi reveals his identity and takes off his vest, Xie Yuanzhi's original citizenship is still there, and Xie Yuanzhi himself has never violated the law and has even paid taxes honestly."
Gu Youxing sneered and said, "Unless the politicians of Country A intend to shake the foundation of the country, they will never take action against Xie Yuanzhi, a classic 'citizen' of Country A."
What is the foundation of country a?
Freedom, equality?
No, it's human rights.
If a politician in country A is accused of disregarding human rights, it means that his public support rate will continue to decline.
Of course, this does not mean that his political career will come to an end immediately, but he will no longer be able to hold any position that requires votes.
However, if a normal citizen who is just a little stronger is imprisoned by official investigators, or even acts in disregard of human rights, he will definitely be wildly insulted.
Therefore, it is not impossible for the president's approval rating to decline.
"...Host, what you said is very true, but what if they say that you are colluding with terrorists, or are just using force?"
777 asked doubtfully.
"If you want to announce collusion with terrorists, you must provide evidence. So does Country A dare to provide evidence from the cruise ship?"
Gu Youxing curled the corners of his mouth. If Country A really dared to release the evidence on the yacht, he would instead join Country A. Country A was a real man who actually dared to expose his own scars. Unfortunately, this was probably just wishful thinking.
"He's tough... Xiao Qi, in terms of military strength, as long as Country A doesn't launch a nuclear bomb towards my location to kill Xie Yuanzhi, the sock puppet, then it's not certain who will die first."
Gu Youxing showed a bloody smile.
——Do you really think that when he was a soldier, his combat power of dismembering and killing alien species that were more than ten stories tall was just a game?
And the system props are still there.
As long as Country A dares to take action, he will directly give Country A's top leaders a halo of the United States.
Let them lose their brains among the fair skin, beautiful looks and long legs!
"...6, you are worthy of being the host."
"But what if the authorities see that you are too strong and dare not take action? Even though the authorities will not make a big fuss about it, it will still be disgusting."
Listening to 777's words, Gu Youxing held his chin and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter, one of them will soon give me the reason."

Marcus looked at Xie Pingyuan in front of him and sighed.
He really didn't know why the person in front of him was so stubborn. They had obviously guessed everything, but he still refused to admit that he had a problem.
Since Xie Pingyuan refused to admit that he had a problem, they could not continue taking the statement. Even if they wanted to falsify the surveillance video, it was already being recorded.
Although surveillance cameras can be turned off and recordings can be forged, many colleagues have been squeezed out of their current positions because of this problem.
Even if there is a leader protecting them now, this matter is like a time bomb that may explode at any time, and the boss has evidence on them. God knows whether this person from the opposing party will get the documents in the leader's hands.
Not to mention anything else, the previous team leader in Marcus' current position got in this way. Although his leader promised to keep him, his leader was a careless person.
He directly left his work computer with his lover, who was a very kind-hearted girl. The leader just complained a few words about the difficulty of using the computer, and his lover enthusiastically called someone to come and repair his work computer.
It turned out that the engineer who came to repair the work computer was one of the informants of the party opposite the team leader. He had been keeping an eye on his lover for a long time, and naturally copied all the data in the work computer without intending to.
After learning that his work computer had been repaired, the leader did not report it, thinking that this was just an act of concern from his girlfriend.
Fortunately, the leader who was fired on the second day and brought discredit to his own party finally realized that the data on his work computer had been leaked. As a result, this move directly sent himself to Orange and also dragged a group of his subordinates into it.
This is also why Marcus has never engaged in the so-called gray area affairs since he took office.
What they are afraid of is being tricked by their leaders. However, things in the gray area cannot be used. However, with the permission of the superiors, confessions from target persons can be obtained through so-called legal means.
After all, there are two prerequisites for holding a secure position. The first is not to make mistakes, and the second is to achieve results.
Marcus is quite satisfied with his current position. Although he is a bit of a company slave, the salary is high.
But he was much more comfortable than his colleagues who worked hard to survey sites everywhere, but ended up getting paid less than half of his salary.
"Mr. Xie Pingyuan, I'll give you the last two hours. I'll go do other work first. If I still can't get the truth when I come back... I think we'll have to use special means. Believe me, you don't want to see him."
Marcus' voice was cold and oppressive.
It was a voice completely different from the conversations between businessmen in the mall, and the tone of command was heavier.
If it were two days ago, Xie Pingyuan would probably keep smiling on the surface but roll his eyes inside, and then ask his assistant to investigate who this official is and see if this official's past experience can make the other party talk to him properly.
But now Xie Pingyuan has completely lost this confidence.
Seeing Marcus leave with a cold face, Xie Pingyuan covered his face with his hands, the handcuffs on his hands were shining, he sighed deeply, and leaned back in his chair decadently. I don't know what he was thinking.
At the same time, Marcus walked to another interrogation room.
However, unlike Xie Pingyuan's interrogation room, the progress in this interrogation room was incredibly smooth.
"…Is he really willing to tell you everything he knows? He looks like a college student who answers all questions."
Marcus said in disbelief. Although the person he was talking about was indeed a college student now, wasn't it - too abnormal for him to answer so unguardedly?
But looking at the well-founded words in the confession, Marcus was silent for a while, and finally chose to go in and talk to the person being interrogated.
"...Sir, I have really told you everything I know. My senior brother knew that you would not let me go, so he told me some information and asked me to provide it to you so that you would let me go."
Ana Shen looked angry, sitting in his original position, and explained when he saw someone coming in.
"And can you let me go? Can you let me go now? Tao Duoduo still has a lot of things waiting for me to deal with."
Although Ana Shen, who had grown up a little, had become a young man, the rebellious expression on his face had not changed.
He looked at Marcus with an irritable look, like an ordinary person who was pulled in for interrogation for no real reason.
But Marcus said with a heart of stone.
“Mr. Ana Shen, I need to ask you again about what happened at the banquet.”
