"Is there something you need?" Ah Chen asked Shen Zheng’an, who was sitting on the side absent-mindedly, "If there’s something, just go back."
Shen Zheng’an shook his head lightly, "There is, but it’s not urgent."
The interrogation concluded, he didn’t ask what information was extracted earlier, but he had some guesses about the outcome.
He was about to compose himself, originally planning to spend the day with her.
But Ah Chen said, "There’s no rush for fun, let’s handle what needs to be done first. Shall I accompany you back?"
Shen Zheng’an initially felt a bit uneasy; with the truth about to be revealed, it’s normal to feel timid.
Now all that unease was gone.
He looked directly at Ah Chen, the emotions in his eyes unhidden.
Even amidst a large crowd, he dared not make any offensive moves.
After a moment of thought, he reached into his sleeve, pulling out a bright flower. Both Shen Zheng’an and Jiang Zhi could take items from their space; it was a privilege Ah Chen had given them, often helping them in emergencies without arousing suspicion.
But she never thought that someday Shen Zheng’an would use it for this.
The pale red flower was held out by Shen Zheng’an in front of Ah Chen. He smiled broadly, entirely different from the imposing and serious demeanor he had in front of his subordinates.
Ah Chen accepted it and even complimented, "It’s beautiful."
Shen Zheng’an was delighted, then stood up, "Then come with me to my residence, it’ll be sorted quickly."
With rare free time, he didn’t want to send her back.
Ah Chen held the flower and agreed, following Shen Zheng’an back to his current residence.
Shen Zheng’an brought a cup of tea to Ah Chen, "Sit here for a while or feel free to look around; I’ll be back soon."
"Okay," Ah Chen nodded, sipping the tea, "It’s good. Did you make it?"
Shen Zheng’an nodded blankly, was it really that good?
Noticing Lan Xin smirking at the side, he snapped back to reality, feeling like he had just swallowed a sweet nectar.
Did Chenchen mean all the tea he brewed was good?
Shen Zheng’an’s face beamed with a smile until he reached the dungeon, remembering what he had to do next. His smile faded, revealing a cold and grim demeanor.
[Host, when I came over just now, I had a look. Shen Zheng’an can change his face! He was smiling like an idiot, and then suddenly turned all sinister-looking.] 997’s voice suddenly popped up.
Ah Chen took another sip of tea, [You speak as if you can’t change your face.]
Upon hearing this, 997 fell silent.
Did... did he know?
Did he know that in front of another bound host, he acted all aloof and boss-like?
[Ahem... not everyone is as good as you, Host. If I don’t act all mysterious, some hosts try to take over.]
[There was one who wanted to secretly study me, but do they understand?]
[Another one tried to counter-bind me. Do they even know whose system I am? Do they have the qualification?]
[Hardly anyone is decent nowadays. I just want to find a few people to actually complete tasks, but it’s so difficult.]
[I truly bound with sincerity, but some troublemakers are never satisfied and want to deceive me!] 997 was a bit indignant when mentioning this.
He wasn’t some harmful wild system. Some people seemed decent in their past but that was only because they hadn’t had a chance to do wrong.
Those hosts had no idea he operated in a very mature and legitimate company, which had long eliminated such risks.
The newly bound hosts didn’t know that the first three worlds were all trial worlds, and not real task worlds, though rewards were still counted and essentially handed out easily.
Once 997 started talking, he couldn’t help but spill all his recent experiences.
Ah Chen had noticed before that there was power attacking 997, but didn’t take it too seriously, he could handle it himself. 997 wasn’t much help usually; he let him go do his own things whenever he wanted.
Ah Chen listened with a smile, surprised that 997’s days were so eventful.
[Having encountered so many Reincarnators and transmigrators, we haven’t met any bad systems in a long while.] 997 suddenly said. freēwēbnovel.com
Ah Chen: [What, you’re hungry?]
[Not... hungry, but would like a bite; I’ve forgotten what it tastes like.] 997 replied, bound with such a powerful host permanently, he had nothing to fear.
Ah Chen: ...
Does her system have quirks?
[Across so many worlds, we’ll eventually meet one. When we do, I’ll catch it for you to devour.] Ah Chen said. Most of the time, 997 couldn’t help her much, but in certain cases, he was very useful.
At that moment, Ah Chen sensed a new order in the space.
Her mind delved into the space, glancing at the order; it was from the apocalypse side, this time trading fruits and vegetables.
The quantity wasn’t much; it didn’t seem intended for hoarding, judging by the few words left by the other party, the mood seemed good, maybe they were just trading some produce for enjoyment?
It appeared the situation on the apocalypse side was mostly resolved.
[Eh?] Suddenly 997 exclaimed in surprise, catching Ah Chen’s attention.
After packaging the order, Ah Chen withdrew her consciousness from the space and asked, [What’s up?]
[Host, please wait, let me go check.] 997 didn’t usually stay by Ah Chen’s side, occasionally monitoring other hosts’ task completions, mostly looking to bind new missionaries.
He had just patrolled an apocalypse world and then saw the order in the space, intending to confirm something.
The host doing the mission in the apocalypse world, he only knew that their original golden finger was supposed to be a Dimensional Trade Mall.
Such golden fingers were so common he didn’t think much of it.
Now it felt... as if the items the host packaged earlier looked very similar to what the host in the apocalypse mission was consuming?
In no time, 997 returned and told Ah Chen about it. freewebnovёl.ƈom
Ah Chen was slightly surprised, but not too shocked, thinking it quite serendipitous.
[Host, should we share a little?] 997 found it intriguing.
Ah Chen pondered for a moment and said, [Sure.]
It seemed quite fateful, revealing a bit wouldn’t hurt.
If next time the other party encountered a world-saving mission, if she got involved, it would create bonds with new worlds, making accomplishing goals much easier.
[Alright then, I’ll go speak to them. This host is quite experienced, having done a few missions quite well, and has good principles!] 997 praised, then added, [Of course not as good as the host.]
Success in making Ah Chen laugh, although it wouldn’t matter much even if they were as good.
The Apocalypse.
A new order successfully traded, Zhou Xue saw the fruits and vegetables appearing in the Dimensional Trade Space, showing a satisfied smile.
After years of hard work, today she planned to enjoy a good meal.
The apocalypse was really tough, but fortunately, she arrived early enough not to let the original body’s golden finger fall into others’ hands.
Originally, the golden finger was taken from the body and simply used as the function of space, not triggering Dimensional Trade.
She managed to do several missions, realizing this wasn’t an ordinary space, plumbed the ultimate use, and henceforth led a life with adequate food and drink, even improving the apocalyptic days.
Except for the first two months of her transmigration, she had been doing alright afterwards.
Zhou Xue took out a watermelon, intending to slice it, when a familiar voice rang in her ear, [Host.]
[Huh? System, didn’t you just come by? What’s up? Not busy today?] Zhou Xue continued slicing the watermelon.
Her bound system was notoriously aloof.
