What's wrong with being a salted fish?

(four)

0617 knows that it is a special system because it was not born on the system's production line, but was born in the palm of a man's hand.

He looks pretty good, the newborn 0617 thought, but why does he look so sad?

The man named it 0617.

The other person read out 0617's name with a smile on his face, and there was a hint of nostalgia in his eyes, as if he was recalling some good memories.

So 0617 wanted to ask the other party, what is the meaning of his name?

Unfortunately, before it could say anything, the man sent it away.

The man said it was not time for it to work yet.

0617 followed a system, which called itself 3218. It was a retired system, and usually only answered questions for new systems.

0617 was very curious and asked why it retired? Is there a concept of retirement in their system?

3218 said that its host was tired of living here and went to settle in the small world.

It is the exclusive system of the host. Without the host, it will not be able to continue working.

As a new system, 0617 is still passionate about its work. It says it can't wait to start working, but the cold man asks it to wait.

3218 smiled and did not continue talking about his own affairs. Instead, he introduced the man’s identity to 0617.

The man’s name is Yu Jingli, he is the main god of this space. He was ambushed some time ago and only recently regained his position as a god.

"Can the Lord God also be attacked by surprise? He looks very strong." 0617 was puzzled.

"He was just born at that time, and he was not yet proficient in controlling his power. The old Lord took advantage of this and attacked him." 3218 said slowly, "The days when the old Lord was in power were too difficult. Everyone hoped that he would come back soon every day and every night."

3218 sighed again: "Fortunately, the Lord God regained his position, otherwise, how could it be so easy now."

0617 immediately hissed twice: "Is it really okay for us to talk about the Lord God behind his back? He will hear it."

"It's okay. This is not a secret." 3218 told it not to worry, and then asked it: "By the way, have you met your host? You should also be a dedicated system."

0617 felt a little disappointed after hearing this: "I haven't seen it. I don't even know if I have a host."

The Lord God asked it to wait and did not tell it who its partner would be, which hindered its progress to work.

"It's okay. Maybe we haven't found one yet." 3218 comforted it. "The host still needs to be carefully selected, especially for a dedicated system like ours. You have to be bound to the other party for life."

"Then why didn't you go with your host?"

3218 was silent, and finally spoke slowly: "He left me behind."

0617 immediately apologized to it and said that he did not mean to touch upon its sad memories.

3218 shook his body and said with emotion: "That's why I say that the host must be very selective. People's hearts change very quickly."

In the following days, 0617 followed 3218 every day to learn how to build a good system.

But until 3218 announced that it was ready to go, 0617 still hadn't found its own host.

It hangs around the Spacetime Administration every day, envying those systems that can carry out missions with the host.

Why hasn't its host come yet? Is it because it doesn't like itself?

0617 couldn't figure it out, so one day, it rushed into the Lord God's office.

When it went in, Yu Jingli was standing next to the huge sand table.

He closed his eyes and placed his right palm above the sand table, as if trying to sense something from the pile of spheres.

"Why are you here?" Yu Jingli felt its presence and opened his eyes.

"Hello, Lord God. I'm sorry to bother you. I just want to know why I don't have a host yet? Is it because I'm not good enough?" 0617 said, and the electronic voice sounded a little aggrieved.

Yu Jingli reacted and was busy creating it.

I have been busy locating Lin Zhuo's coordinates these days and have not paid attention to its mood. As a system with thoughts and emotions, and it was just born, it is inevitable that it would be anxious.

"That's not the case." Yu Jingli held it in his arms and looked at the sand table with it. "Your host is still wandering in different small worlds. I am locating his coordinates."

"Then I can help too!" Knowing that he was not an unwanted system, 0617 regained his spirits.

"Okay." Yu Jingli touched its head, "I'll send you his data, and you can try to find his location."

"Uh-huh!"

So after that, people entering and leaving the Lord God’s office could often see a big and a small person wandering around the sand table.

Finally, on an ordinary day, 0617 suddenly opened his electronic eyes and exclaimed: "I... I have located where my host is!"

"Really?" Yu Jingli was also a little surprised. He finally found it.

"Can I get ready for work?!" 0617 cheered.

"Yes, go and get ready."

At the same time, Yu Jingli also needs to make some preparations himself.

As long as 0617 follows Lin Zhuo, he can also enter the small world according to 0617's coordinates.

0617 cheered and ran towards the elevator, ready to go to the fourteenth floor.

It finally has a host!

Before the elevator door closed, 0617 remembered something and said to Yu Jingli, "Excuse me, Lord God, does my name have any meaning?"

Hearing this, Yu Jingli's eyebrows softened, but he just looked at it. Until the elevator door closed, 0617 did not hear the other party's answer.

It doesn’t matter, it thought, there will be another chance.

After it left, a man's gentle voice rang out in the room: "That was the day when I first met him."

(Fives)

When Yu Jingli brought Wan Linlin back, Lin Zhuo was lying on the sofa playing games, and 0617 was leaning next to him and teaming up with him using another device.

A year ago, he and Yu Jingli held their wedding at the Space-Time Administration.

The wedding was grand, and many hosts and systems gave their blessings to the two of them.

At the same time, Lin Zhuo also heard some systems quietly complaining about how their main gods had quietly found love! Even the main gods were finding love, so why were their hosts still single?

This made Lin Zhuo laugh and cry.

After getting married, Yu Jingli had planned to go on a honeymoon, but due to too much work, he had to put it off again and again.

Lin Zhuo didn't care. Sometimes he would go to help Yu Jingli, and sometimes he would take 0617 to take on some simple tasks and take a trip around the small world.

In addition to earning points by completing missions, Lin Zhuo asked 0617 to bring back a copy of the game data he had previously made in the small world.

So during that period of time, the hosts and systems of the Space-Time Administration discovered that there was a new game project in the entertainment section.

This has caused many people and leaders to explore this new section and become addicted to it.

Even some retired employees were not spared.

Playing games became a rage in the administration for a while.

In addition to the games he made himself, Lin Zhuo also asked 0617 to bring back a lot of games, especially the vegetable-growing game that Lin Zhuo preferred.

In addition to the synchronous updates, 0617 has brought back the krypton gold systems one-to-one.

However, the amount of money spent by the system and employees will be transferred to the game studio according to the currency of the corresponding world.

I guess they never imagined that there are people outside the world playing the games they made.

Yiren Yitong was immersed in the game when he suddenly heard Yu Jingli cough twice.

They both turned to look at Yu Jingli at the side, and then saw Wan Linlin standing next to him, looking extremely embarrassed. Finally, they said in unison: "Let's talk about it after this game."

Yu Jingli: ...Should he learn from the anti-addiction system?

"Sit down." Lin Zhuo gestured to Wan Linlin to find a place to sit first.

Wan Linlin moved to sit next to Lin Zhuo, and when she looked over, she found that the two of them were still playing the game in their own world.

"This game still exists here?" Is the Administration so up-to-date?

"Haha, I carried it back." 0617 said proudly.

When Wan Linlin saw 0617, her eyes lit up. She reached out and hugged 0617 and rubbed him: "Is this your system? Will I have one next time?"

When Wan Linlin first arrived here, the receptionist gave her a detailed introduction, so she now has a general understanding of the administration.

"Ouch, ouch, let me go!" 0617 twisted its body. It was about to lose the game!

Wan Linlin was speechless and put it back on the sofa: You two really look like internet addicts.

"I'll find a system that suits you." Yu Jingli brought out two plates of fruit from the kitchen.

Wan Linlin nodded stupidly. She didn't expect that the main god the receptionist mentioned was actually her sister's husband, and she didn't expect that the other party looked like a good family man.

Thanks, it's a bit like a science fiction movie.

"Oh, by the way, where is my wife? Does she work here too?" Wan Linlin asked.

Although she died of old age, she left earlier than Bai Li, so she didn't know whether Bai Li was a member here.

"I'm sorry, Bai Li is a serious NPC and she doesn't belong here." Yu Jingli sat next to Lin Zhuo. When he heard Wan Linlin's words, he shook his head and fed Lin Zhuo a strawberry.

"Is that so?" Wan Linlin was very disappointed, but she also understood that such things could not be forced.

"But..." Yu Jingli kept it a secret.

"But what?" Wan Linlin saw that things were turning around when she saw his expression. She became anxious and asked him to speak quickly.

"You can complete the tasks to earn points, and then buy Bai Li's data." Yu Jingli said.

"Is this appropriate?" Wan Linlin hesitated.

This sounds a lot like the couple is giving themselves a backdoor, which is a bit against the rules.

"Don't worry, we have a formal process." Yu Jingli signaled her not to think too much, and he would never tell her an impossible method.

Wan Linlin nodded, and then asked, "Excuse me, how many points are needed?"

Yu Jingli was prepared for this. He tapped the bracelet on his wrist, and then an electronic screen unfolded in front of him.

He put Bai Li's data together and asked Wan Linlin to look at it for herself: "Bai Li is an NPC in four worlds in total. You will get 10,000 points for each world, a total of 40,000 points."

Wan Linlin sighed. It sounded like a lot, but for her wife, she rushed forward!

"For the sake of our friendship, I'll give you a 30% discount, to 28,000." Lin Zhuo squinted his eyes and poked Yu Jingli's waist. Yu Jingli continued helplessly.

"Thank you, thank you! When can I start working?" Wan Linlin now feels that she has endless energy in her body.

Lin Zhuo threw a game controller to her: "Don't worry, take a break first."

Silly child, when you find out the maximum number of points you can get in a world, you will probably cry.

(six)

Soon, after Wan Linlin started working, Lin Zhuo began his idle life again.

That day, Lin Zhuo was lying on the sofa in his home and was about to stretch, but his waist suddenly felt sore, forcing him to stop.

Lin Zhuo lifted up his clothes and took a look: I am really impressed by Yu Jingli!

"I want to go too!" Yu Jingli protested.

Just now Lin Zhuo came to his office to find him and said that he wanted to take a mission for fun. Yu Jingli then said that he wanted to go with him. Lin Zhuo smiled at him and motioned for him to stay in the administration honestly.

Lin Zhuo rubbed his head and said kindly: "Have you finished your work?"

Yu Jingli hugged Lin Zhuo's waist like a child playing rogue, buried his face in Lin Zhuo's chest, and said in a muffled voice: "No."

"Then you should just work honestly. As for me, I will go out to support the family." Lin Zhuo rubbed Yu Jingli's chin and motioned for him to smile.

Yu Jingli frowned and said fiercely: "Isn't it me who is being raised?"

He doesn't need Lin Zhuo to support him!

"Honey, have you forgotten? We have a big fat system at home." Lin Zhuo was amused by him.

"......" How come I am not as good as a system now!

"Take me with you." Yu Jingli kept hugging his waist and acting coquettishly with him.

“No.” Lin Zhuo broke free from his arms, bent down and kissed Yu Jingli, “You really should let the systems under your command see that their great Lord God is actually acting like a child.”

Yu Jingli didn't care. He was thick-skinned anyway. "What's so shameful about being a spoiled child with your wife?"

"Keep working hard. I'm going out to play." No matter how Yu Jingli acted coquettishly, Lin Zhuo refused to give in.

Finally, Lin Zhuo waved at Yu Jingli, who looked aggrieved, and signaled him to work with peace of mind and not to worry about him.

Lin Zhuo leaned in the elevator and prepared to go to the fourteenth floor. He was in a good mood and hummed a little tune.

0617 crawled out of his pocket: "Host, are we really not bringing the Lord God?"

Lin Zhuo smiled and felt relieved: "No, he is very busy."

"Host..." 0617 whispered.

"what happened?"

0617 hesitated for a moment, then said, "Did you run out to play because you didn't want to be unable to get out of bed anymore?"

Lin Zhuo: ...Even if you know it, there is no need to say it out!

Yu Jingli has such a heavy workload during the day, but he still has the energy to torture himself after get off work.

He has been biting every bit of his skin these past few days. If he doesn't go out and hide, he really won't be able to get out of bed!

"I knew it."

"If you say that again, I'll paint your shell green."

"..."
