However, at this time, Lake was so shocked by the news that "Li Xiexuan is Yanai" that the blood on his face faded, and he only listened to most of the young man's words in a daze, without realizing the meaning of the other party's words at all.

After the young man strode up to him and snapped his fingers to bring him back to life, the other party pulled out the book he was holding in his hand.

"I've basically finished what I need to say. Now, there is one more thing," the young man who was facing Lake frowned. Everything has been restored to its original appearance, and everything is back on track. Those so-called systems will no longer exist. You are a character in this world, and you should go back."

Lake raised his head: "Then Yanai... Where is Li Xiexuan!"

"He showed me a fairly good story and fulfilled the agreement with me. I, of course, have to fulfill what I promised him." The young man opened the book, and Lake suddenly felt his head hurt again. The book seemed to have a strong suction, and it wanted to involve him, "Of course, he has already stayed where he should be. Go and see him, the story will never end, I look forward to it, he and you A new story after that."

Before returning to the original world, Lake asked the original question again:

"Who the hell are you!"

The young man tilted his head and smiled.

"It's okay to tell you," he grinned, "but maybe if you know, your spirit will break down?"

Snapped.

Before the young man could speak his name, the book fell from his hand and fell to the floor.And Lake, who was originally staying in the library, also disappeared.

"...My name is Nyarlathotep."

Picking up the book, the young man hummed a little song, sat back in front of the bookshelf, and read the book with relish.

Looking at it, he suddenly seemed to be talking to himself, and muttered:

"Maybe, I'm just a character in a certain book?"

But so what.

Where this moment is, is reality.

Xu Zhang is a patrolling policeman on the alien planet C36.

C36 is a third-class industrial star in the empire's star field, but its energy has been exhausted a few years ago, and it has become an abandoned star with little resource value.Fortunately, new radioactive element resources have been explored on C36 in recent years. Therefore, the empire has dispatched many patrolling policemen like Xu Zhang to station at C36 to supervise and care for it, waiting for the empire's engineering team to settle in in the future. C36 conducts resource re-excavation.

Driving his own small airship, Xu Zhang wandered around the area he was in charge of.Under the airship were piles of industrial ruins, and the prosperity of the past could be vaguely seen, which made Xu Zhang couldn't help but sigh.

Turning on the multi-function player on the small airship, Xu Zhang first listened to his favorite song - "7th Moon" as usual.This song comes from Yanai, the popular virtual idol. Thinking of Yanai, Xu Zhang sighed again.

When Yanai was not a virtual AI, but an artificial life created by the Glory Project, the entire empire was in an uproar.

Ethical people from the outside began to criticize Yanai and the glorious plan behind him, thinking that the existence of Yanai is evil, and the technology created at the expense of sacrificing human beings as experimental products is also evil technology, let alone should not exist in the world. Determined to destroy Yanai.

The participants of the Glorious Project led by Dr. Li retorted that progress is built on corpses, and without sacrifices, human beings will stagnate forever.The Glorious Project is a project born for the entire human race. Dr. Li loves all human beings.

Xu Zhang didn't feel much about it.

He has only received compulsory education in the empire, he is not a high-level intellectual, and he knows nothing about ethics or science.Is justice achieved by unjust means real justice?Is progress achieved by unethical means real progress?He couldn't answer these questions.

Xu Zhang only knows that right and wrong are right and wrong, but their positions are different.

But sin exists objectively.

Although Dr. Li and the glorious plan behind him have indeed clarified a new direction for human evolution, it is an indisputable fact that his hands are stained with the blood and sin of human experimentation.

just.

That has nothing to do with Yanai.

Whether natural life or man-made life, in Xu Zhang's view, Yanai is Yanai.Since Yanai is human, he is human.As a virtual idol, Yanai has given many people happy memories, and that is enough.

It's a pity that Xia Ning, the first concubine of the empire, harbored deep hostility towards Yanai for some reason. After all the scientific researchers related to the Glory Project were imprisoned, she ordered to hunt down the fled Yanai herself.

When the first prince Caesar was about to succeed to the throne, Princess Xia Ning cried out to the public: the reason why he hated Yanai so much was because Yanai was a heartless person who trampled on his sincerity.He loved Yanai so much, but Yanai never responded to him.

In the empire, countless sentimental idiots lamented the concubine's infatuation, but Xu Zhang found it extremely ridiculous: When the concubine claimed to be in love with Yanai, Yanai's identity had not yet been revealed, she was just a virtual idol, right?Falling in love with a paper man, giving in every possible way, longing for a response...isn't it a bit ridiculous?

Shaking his head, Xu Zhang stopped thinking about it.At this moment, Yanai's song was also finished, and the voice of the host of the morning news of the third TV station of the Empire came out of the player.

Xu Zhang listened for a while, then blinked slightly in surprise.

The imperial councilors are actually discussing the impeachment of the emperor because they are dissatisfied with the emperor Caesar for using too much private power for the queen Xia Ning! ?

He was inexplicably gloating: The emperor of the empire was so angry that he got rid of the blue face drama!

It doesn't matter if it's impeached, the entire interstellar is still an imperial system, and it's not bad to reform and enter the federal era or the republic era earlier, Xu Zhang thought.

Once the emperor Caesar fell, the queen Xia Ning would have to go around too much. After all, the queen had offended many people in her early years.Not to mention anything else, just Yanai's fans could spray him to death one by one.Xu Zhang felt ashamed, and when he thought of Xia Ning's miserable end, he gloated inexplicably.

Happiness is really based on the pain of others... Xu Zhang touched his nose, and added secretly: it is based on the pain of people he hates.

at this time!

Suddenly, he found that there seemed to be figures moving in the ruins under the airship.

Xu Zhang was taken aback. This area is an out-and-out industrial wasteland. Where did this figure come from?

Before Xu Zhang drove the airship down to get a better look at the figure, someone took a step ahead of him and rushed towards the ruins in a small airship.

Xu Zhang frowned, looked at the flying airship and thought about it for a long time, and then suddenly remembered the origin of the somewhat familiar airship: The person who held the airship just now was the general responsible for most of the affairs of the abandoned star C36. Al Lake.

The other party seemed to be born in C36 and grew up in C36.

In Xu Zhang's impression, this Lake is also a god-man. He was originally a refugee on the abandoned star, and even colluded with the star thief.As a result, in the past six months, he betrayed the Star Thief gang without saying a word, wiped it out, and handed it over to the Imperial Superintendent. He was appreciated by a certain leader of the superintendent, and he was promoted to the chief of C36 in one fell swoop. .

Why is Rick here?As the other party, there is no need to go on a star tour in person...

Just when Xu Zhang was thinking about running the train, Lake had already driven a small airship and plunged headlong into the ruined city.

After the airship stopped at a corner of the ruins, he quickly got out of the car, anxiously looking around for the figure of the young man he saw just now, which made him miss day and night these days and nights.

After returning to the original world, Lake found that he had actually returned to the point when he boarded the starship near the small ship where Yanai was.

Thinking that the starship would encounter a black hole in the future, Lake quickly disembarked.He also thought that Li Xiexuan had also returned to the place where he "should be"... After thinking over and over again, Lake tried every means to deploy himself to the abandoned star C36.

He remembered that when he was reading in the library of the silver-haired young man, he turned to the back and vaguely saw a fragment of Li Xiexuan's subsequent whereabouts.After escaping from Dr. Lee's starship, in order to hide his traces and linger, the other party spent a period of time in the industrial abandoned star of C36.

Could that figure be him?Rick felt his heart beating faster.

He wanted to see Yanai.

He wanted to see Li Xiexuan more.

It's just that Lake looked around for a long time but couldn't figure out why, let alone Li Xiexuan, he couldn't even catch the figure just now.Just as he was about to be disappointed, he suddenly heard a voice.

Someone is singing.

He remembered this singing voice. Once, when he was struggling to survive on the abandoned planet and was at his worst, it was this singing voice that gave him the courage to live.

——It's Li Xiexuan!

When Lake suddenly turned his head, he saw a handsome young man among the endless ruins, sitting peacefully on one of the ruins, humming a tune softly.

He swallowed and walked over.

The young man was still holding a small metal ball in his hand. Seeing him coming, the metal ball fluttered with excitement, and let out a loud voice: "Host! Oh no, now I am not a system, so I can call you Lake." Is it? Lake! Mr. Li is really amazing, he actually found a way to recycle the scrap materials here, and recreated me! Originally, the main god space is gone, so I should be gone...Mr. Li No. [-] in the world!"

Lake moved his lips, feeling mixed feelings in his heart for a while.He chose to bind the system at first because he wanted to save Yanai, but later he fell in love with Li Xiexuan, so he resolutely gave up on Yanai... However, he did not expect that Li Xiexuan was Yanai...

Going around, he has fulfilled his original intention?

The young man glanced at him with some disgust, and said lazily: "Silly dog... why did you come here now?"

"Sorry, I'm late..." Lake knelt down on one knee, looking up at Li Xiexuan enthusiastically, "However, it's not too late?"

"Not satisfactory." Li Xiexuan rubbed his head.

"Just passable?"

"if not?"

"Then if I behave better in the future, will I be able to upgrade to complete satisfaction?"

"This is..."

Li Xiexuan turned his head.

Although C36 is an abandoned star, the galaxy where it is located has a sun-like asteroid that is still revolving. At this time, the sun-like planet is rising slightly, and the entire abandoned star is shrouded in warm glow.

He said:

"It depends on your performance, but I'm ugly, you have to be mentally prepared for a protracted battle. I'm very picky... After all, I'm a scumbag."

Like a newborn.
