I didn't open it in another world, I'm sure

"It's just learning and applying it now." Nagato Yuki raised the manga in his hand.

Nangong Xiao looked at the words "TOUCH" on the spine of the comic book, and was also puzzled. She didn't understand how Nagato Yuki saw the "essence" of bargaining in this comic whose Chinese name translates as "Baseball Heroes" .

"What's the problem?" Nagato Yuki was surprised by Nangong Xiao's doubts.

"No, I just want to say that the ownership of her hasn't come to me yet."

"If the price is negotiated, then everything will be fine."

"...Yuki, did you learn all this from manga?"

"Is there a problem?"

Nagato Yuki tilted his head and asked suspiciously.

"No, I just regret that I didn't stop you from entering the house. Sure enough, there is a price to see you wearing rabbit headphones..."

"?"

Nagato Yuki, who couldn't understand someone's complaints at all, could only continue to look at someone suspiciously.

"Okay, how about the price—"

"Wait, wait! Wait for me!"

Just when Nangong Xiao was about to get down to business, Haruhi Suzumiya couldn't help but interrupt.

After seeing Nangong Xiao and Nagato Yuki, Asakura Ryoko and Yukining all looked over, Suzumiya Haruhi said again.

"If I understand correctly, Axiao and Youxi are talking about Asakura's personal ownership right?"

Nangong Xiao nodded, "Yes, is there any question?"

Nagato Yuki also nodded slightly, "Yes."

"It's a big problem!" Suzumiya Haruhi immediately raised the issue, and then pointed at Asakura Ryoko and said, "Have you considered...uh..."

Haruhi Suzumiya, who was about to explode, suddenly realized something, and asked weakly, "Well, there must be something hidden here?"

"Haruhi, I am very pleased that you have really grown up."

"well!!"

Well, someone's 'old father's comfort' appearance made Suzumiya Haruhi a little angry, and even her cheeks were a little red, but the little girl didn't mess around or anything else in the end, but asked again, "Can I do you know?"

Regarding this question, Nangong Xiao looked at Nagato Yuki first, and seeing Nagato Yuki shaking his head, Nangong Xiao turned around and said to Suzumiya Haruhi, "There are some things that are inconvenient to disclose, but you can rest assured that Asakura Ryoko will not feel sad because of this." Kind of, even, she is somewhat looking forward to this change."

"Eh?"

Now, not to mention Haruhi Suzumiya, even Ji Ning couldn't help looking at Ryoko Asakura.

And after seeing Asakura Ryoko, there was no sign of being sad at all, and he even said softly to Haruhi Suzumiya, "Thank you, but this is also my wish."

"Okay, okay, I'm busy..."

Regarding this, what could Haruhi Suzumiya do, he could only lay down on the table in some puzzlement, with his left cheek pressed against the table, looking sideways at Nangong Xiao.

"Ah Xiao, when you can talk, you must tell me the reason."

"Well, I'll tell you later."

As Nangong Xiao said, he reached out and rubbed the little girl's head.

Because, the current Haruhi, he is very satisfied.

"Then it's settled."

"Ah."

Suzumiya Haruhi was so unaccustomed to this kind of intimacy, her cheeks had a hint of blush, and her eyes were retracted, not to continue to intersect with someone's eyes.

It wasn't until someone withdrew her hand that she felt a little bit disappointed...

Chapter 994 A Neat Deal

In the afternoon, at the long table in the old library.

Nangong Xiao and the others sat or stood here.

While Nangong Xiao comforted Suzumiya Haruhi, she was also communicating with Ling Qi in her heart.

[Nangong Xiao: Xiao Qi, can you do it? 】

【Lingqi: No problem at all, even a move that kills two birds with one stone, um, not only will it give you an extra capable follower, but it can also just scare that conscious body so that the other party will act more restrained in the future. 】

[Nangong Xiao: In that case, Xiaoqi, you should prepare. 】

[Zero Qi: OK, anytime. 】

After finishing the instant consciousness exchange with Lingqi, Nangong Xiao shifted her gaze from Suzumiya Haruhi to Nagato Yuki.

Nangong Xiao said, "I will pay the price enough, and I will accept the ownership of Asakura Ryoko. Can I hand it over at any time?"

"Yes." Nagato Yuki didn't ask much, just nodded.

"This is the price. For me, this thing is still very precious."

As Nangong Xiao said, he took out a bottle of "strengthening potion" produced by the system from the space ring, and its effect was to permanently increase one's constitution.

For Nangong Xiao, who currently has three basic attributes breaking four digits, although this rare potion that permanently adds 1 point to constitution is still very precious, there is a prerequisite for this kind of preciousness, that is, large quantity.

However, this kind of potion can't be dropped in large quantities at all. Even if he and Maple teamed up to brush it, they only got a total of a hundred bottles so far, and they were not of the same type.

This shows how low the drop rate of this potion is.

And because of the small quantity, Nangong Xiao didn't use it. Instead, he only used this potion for research, hoping to decipher the rules in it. Although there were no direct results, there were some derivative results.

So, this thing is really precious in a sense, but it's just that.

"The rules that permanently rewrite the state of existence of all life forms are quite high-level rules in the material world—I don't understand the value of Asakura Ryoko to you, can you tell me?" Nagato Yuki looked at the push down with some surprise Potion in front of you.

In her opinion, the value of this kind of rule is many times higher than that of tens of thousands of Ryoko Asakura.

Nangong Xiao's price premium behavior is completely illogical in her opinion.

Although Asakura Ryoko does not have the 'eyesight' of Nagato Yuki, after all, the difference in level is too great, and he is not qualified to touch the content related to 'World Cornerstone'. The rare strange expression shows that this thing has hope for Nagato, no, it is very important for the information integration thought body!

——This person, why did he pay such a high price to replace her "mass-produced product"...

Ryoko Asakura was so puzzled that she even wanted to ask directly.

However, at this time, Nangong Xiao said, "I want to see what state Ryoko Asakura will be in after the ownership change. Just like you observe me, I also observe you."

"Is that so...In this case, I will disconnect Ryoko Asakura from the higher authorities. Please rest assured that I will retain Ryoko Asakura's current comprehensive strength. I think this will also be of some help to you."

"It's enough to keep Asakura Ryoko's current comprehensive strength. I want to try to see if I can get the ownership of Asakura Ryoko from your boss harmlessly."

"If this is a temptation, it would be meaningless." Nagato Yuki's eyes were full of doubts, "Or, is it a demonstration?"

"How you want to understand it, the focus is on the process, and it is also a valuable observation point."

"Yes, I see. Now you can begin."

There was a slight change in Nagato Yuki's tone of voice. If it wasn't for careful consideration, others would not be able to hear the difference, but Nangong Xiao noticed it.

This is, the information integration thought body has come in person...

Of course, Nangong Xiao didn't care about these things, but looked at Ryoko Asakura, "Are you interested in exploring the mysteries of the heavens and worlds with me?"

"Eh?" Asakura Ryoko was slightly taken aback.

Not to mention Ryoko Asakura, Nagato Yuki, Suzumiya Haruhi, You Ji Ning and the others were all taken aback for a moment. After all, the invitation to 'explore the heavens and worlds' is really a bit out of line.

Nangong Xiao added, "Although your existence is very special, I can ignore your feelings, but in my opinion, you are an independent living body, and I will respect the will of others unless there is no other choice. .If you are willing to follow me wholeheartedly, then we will sign a special contract, so as to become a "companion" who can entrust life and death to each other. If you refuse, I will not force a special contract, but let you promise Autonomy, as I once said, serve me five years and you will be free.

Well, if I need time to think about it, I can also give it to you..."

"No." Asakura Ryoko smiled and shook her head, "Thank you Mr. Nangong for your kindness, really, thank you."

Ryoko Asakura's thank you really came from the heart.

As an oversimulation of "human nature", she is actually more sensitive than normal natural people in some respects.

Maybe she won't admit it, but in essence, she still desires to be recognized subconsciously.

She longs to be recognized as a unique individual, not a ready-to-consumable mass-produced 'humanoid communication device'.

Nangong Xiao asked again, "Are you sure? I can promise you that even if you choose the latter, after five years, I can still give you asylum under the premise of abiding by the rules I set. I promise, your former boss It's out of my control."

"Mr. Nangong, I believe in your promise. Really, thank you very much. Well, although I also want to be self-righteous, my reason tells me that enough is enough."

"you sure?"

"Ah."

After nodding, Asakura Ryoko and Nangong Xiao looked at each other.

When the two looked at each other, Haruhi Suzumiya on the other side couldn't help raising her eyebrows, she always felt that the atmosphere was a bit weird.

However, I can't tell what's weird.

Of course, the most important thing is that she always has the illusion that she is going to lose to the girls in her class.

Moreover, this illusion is also the kind that I don't know where to bring it up.

In fact, it wasn't just Suzumiya Haruhi who had this inexplicable feeling in his heart, Ji Ning also had a little bit of it.

But You Ji Ning didn't pay much attention, she was more curious about what was going on.

It's just that Nangong Xiao mentioned before that some things are inconvenient to say, so she gave up the idea of ​​asking in private.

But Nangong Xiao and Asakura Ryoko didn't last long when they looked at each other, Nangong Xiao said.

"In this case, let's make a contract, relax, and then put your hand on the palmprint scanning interface in front of you."

After Nangong Xiaoyan said, a holographic interface appeared in front of Asakura Ryoko.

"Is that so?" Asakura Ryoko blinked, then placed her right palm on the palmprint scanning column of the holographic interface.

"Well. Once this contract is signed, it cannot be canceled. Even if you want to die, you can't die. Now is the last chance. What do you want to say?"

Ryoko Asakura said with a smile, "Mr. Nangong, work is work, there should be rest days, right? She is a girl after all, and she wants to have time for shopping~"

"...I'm trying to become a qualified capitalist, and you make me feel a little bit embarrassed."

Nangong Xiao paused for a moment, and made a rare joke.

"That's really bad~ Can't we discuss it?"

Hearing that Nangong Xiao was joking, Asakura Ryoko's uneasiness gradually disappeared.

"Well, there will be holidays, after all, I don't want to squeeze the staff too much-start?"

"Mr. Nangong, please start, I can't wait~"

"Then—let's begin."

As Nangong Xiao's words fell, Asakura Ryoko lost her sight, and soon recovered, and her expression became weird at the same time.

At the same time, Nagato Yuki was stunned, and then stared at Ryoko Asakura in astonishment.

"Disconnected..."

"A mighty force above all..."

"Indescribable existence..."

"Could it be that this is the... final form of self-disciplined evolution..."

"Or...this is just the tip of the iceberg..."

"Can't...understand..."

"Completely unable to...understand...the existence that defies logic..."

As if something went wrong, Nagato Yuki, apart from looking stupid, kept muttering to himself some words that outsiders could not understand.

And when Nagato Yuki was 'crashing', Nangong Xiao was also looking at the [pet] attribute interface that outsiders could not see.
