"Therefore, in my opinion, the shortcomings of the current system have initially emerged, and we must change this approach..."

On the TV, his best friend's impassioned speech made him smile and shake his head, "You really have your style."

Today was the day for Lin Yi to give a public speech. Raymond originally planned to be an audience, but due to the cargo, he had to find a reason to leave. Now that he was free, he began to watch his old friend's speech. In order to avoid being given the middle finger by this guy later, I have to take a preemptive strike and ask him to guess whether he has seen it, and then the expression on his face will be extremely exciting when the answer is revealed.

Thinking of the guy's surprised expression, Raymond smiled even more happily.

Jingle Bell--

A rapid ringing sound like an old-fashioned telephone rang, and Raymond answered the phone unhappily. If it was an ordinary call, he could ignore it, but this phone number was special and only certain people would call this phone number.

"Raymond, the BOSS is looking for you."

"Oh, I'll be there later." Raymond agreed casually, but his energy was not transferred to the phone call. It was just a meeting with the BOSS, which was not a big deal at all.

"No, BOSS said, you have to go there right now."

Raymond frowned in disgust, "I know, I'm leaving now."

Looking at his old friend speaking on TV again, Raymond clicked his tongue and said, "This is a big loss."

"Oh, I don't know what a head is~"

The BOSS's eyes were staring straight at Raymond, like a vulture smelling the smell of decay. He was obviously just a middle-aged man, but he felt like a living corpse. The sight was disgusting, and the cloudy eyes moved inch by inch, which made people feel a little hairy. He grinned, that sickening grin that made Raymond's hands clenched and released repeatedly, as if they were relaxing.

"BOSS, what do you want from me?"

"Oh, I'm just going to ask you to do me a favor, a murder. Someone's offering a big price for his life."

"Who?"

The curvature of BOSS's grin became wider. He placed a photo on the table as if he was prepared. Raymond couldn't help but hold his breath.

"Lin Yi."

........................

"So, your boss asked you to plan an assassination against Lin Yi, and also asked you not to let go."

"Yes," Raymond's voice on the other end of the phone sounded a little depressed.

"Then why did you find me?"

"BOSS doesn't know about your existence, and I haven't told anyone else about it. So, I hope you can save Lin Yi, for the sake of me and him helping you."

"That's it..." Zhong Yu thought for a while, then the vague memory before could make it clear that in the previous world, Lin Yi did die abnormally. But the executioner is his best friend.

What a bad taste.

Zhong Yu instinctively felt disgusted with that so-called BOSS. But in a certain sense, this is a good thing. If it were someone else, Zhong Yu probably wouldn't be able to save this man.

"Won't your boss suspect that you asked me to take action?"

"..." Raymond was silent for a while, "Yes, if the attack is blocked, then he will investigate and eventually find you. It is not difficult. Just a simple investigation will reveal your identity. It’s a forgery, and the most I can do is slow it down. But if it’s you, you shouldn’t be afraid.”

I wonder what impact saving him will have on the world itself... Zhong Yu couldn't help but think this way. He was familiar with the knowledge related to the universe, but he had absolutely zero experience with this so-called time and space travel. For him, instead of thinking about things that are illusory and have no hope at all, it is better to think about things that go against common sense but are possible.

Saving Lin Yi is completely beyond the original direction of the world. It is not difficult to imagine that if Lin Yi is saved, it may, no, it will definitely produce an effect similar to the butterfly effect. Where will the final result lead? Whether it is good or bad for oneself, these are all unknown. And looking at it now, the disadvantages are not small.

He could have chosen not to save Lin Yi and just go on peacefully, because that was the history he was familiar with, and he was absolutely sure to follow the original path, even if there were some deviations. What will happen if Lin Yi is rescued is unknown, and the unknown is scary. If it was Zhong Yu in the previous life, he would definitely choose to save her, but now Zhong Yu is afraid and he doesn't dare to take such a gamble. Because he is carrying not only himself, but also the ship girls, they are the most important.

When thinking like this, Zhong Yu suddenly realized that it was meaningless to think about whether it would change the world now. His choice to contact Raymond and make a deal with the Kangaroo Bar was in itself a violation of the original If the violation of the world produces a butterfly effect, the choice before him now is the product of the butterfly effect.

"Let me think about it for a while... I'll call you later."

"Ok."

After hanging up the phone, Zhong Yu regretted his recklessness. It was just for convenience and he didn't think in this direction at all. Probably because those are just small things. But people are different. The survival of human beings can really change the world. When it really came to a matter of life, Zhong Yu still hesitated. He could convince himself that Lin Yi was already a dead person and it was his fate not to save him.

However, even if it is fate, the decision-making power now lies in his hands. It is his own choice to watch indifferently or to lend a helping hand.

"Commander, what's wrong?"

While Zhong Yu was thinking hard, a soft voice came, making Zhong Yu's tense nerves relax a little.

"Lexington, I want to ask you a question."

"Ah."

"There is a person who needs your rescue, but rescuing him will definitely have an impact on your own life. At present, there are definitely disadvantages. But if you know that if you don't save him, your own life will be equivalent to predicting the future in disguise. This It’s up to you whether you can save him or not.”

"save."

Lexington replied with almost no hesitation.

"why?"

"Because I can't just watch people suffer and ignore it."

"However, no matter what choice the commander makes, I will bear it with you."

"That's it..." Zhong Yu suddenly realized that his uneasiness had disappeared. Is this the influence of Lexington in my heart? Zhong Yu smiled bitterly in his heart.

"Lexington, can I give you a hug?"

Lexington was stunned by Zhong Yu's sudden request, but she smiled, stood up and hugged Zhong Yu, "Okay." She stroked Zhong Yu's head as if comforting a child.

Zhong Yu was almost intoxicated by the soft and warm embrace and Lexington's own body fragrance.

Why were you so hesitant before? Zhong Yu asked himself in his heart. Obviously at the beginning, my decision was to save him. Why did I regret it now? What I lack is not the strength, but the courage.

You can't ignore people who are in trouble. If this is Lexington's criterion and this is what she hopes, then this is the criterion for Zhong Yu's actions. But there is one thing that cannot be changed at all, that is, everything must ultimately benefit Lexington and the others, no matter what happens to Zhong Yu.

I have to think of a more complete plan - but for now, let me enjoy it a little more.
