Hold on, the system and I have never been angry

Lu Jinzhao sat alone on the lawn for a while.

"Hey, are you thinking about life here? What did the little mermaid say to you that made you look so confused?" Nox came to find him with Qiansui in his arms and explained simply: "Tumenquan is in charge of the aftermath, and the others are cleaning up the battlefield and helping to treat the wounded. Only the two of us are not under her charge, so we can be idle."

"It's really hard to understand." Lu Jinzhao relaxed his brows and smiled helplessly: "It feels like many years after graduation, an old classmate suddenly came to say that another old classmate who was not very familiar with him before and had almost no impression of him passed away, and he came to hand over his belongings. When you opened the belongings with a puzzled attitude, you found that they were all about your youth. It turned out that someone had been silently paying attention to you for many years, and you knew nothing about it. When you found out, he had passed away, leaving you and the belongings staring at each other in bewilderment."

"Eh? Now that you put it like that, it sounds like a romance drama." Nox thought about it carefully and remembered something. "When I was a rookie in the strategy group, I saved a lot of protagonists, supporting characters, and small unknowns in order to complete the mission. Both men and women."

"It seems that there was such a scene as you said. Her relics should still be kept in my system space, but I may need to look through them. There are also some brave ones who confessed to me, but no matter which one, they will forget me after the world line is reset."

"Sometimes I think, they forget me, but I can't forget them. For people like you and me, is strong empathy and good memory a reward or a punishment?"

Lu Jinzhao did not answer but asked: "Do you remember how you felt at that time?"

Nox looked at Lu Jinzhao seriously, and after a careful examination, he suddenly smiled and said, "It's probably the same as you are now. A little bit at a loss, and a little bit unbelievable."

"I feel like I can't handle such strong emotions. It's not realistic to say that I fell in love with him because of this, but I am indeed a little touched. After all, such sincere emotions are rare."

"I tried to search my mind for something, but I found that there were very few fragments of memory about this person. Apart from knowing what he looked like, I knew nothing else, right?"

Lu Jinzhao agreed with a smile: "That's about right. It's a little bit inexplicable. I don't know where this feeling comes from."

Nox laughed. "Then I'll go back and submit a report right away so that he can come back to life soon. This way you don't have to feel embarrassed."

"Sounds good." Lu Jinzhao thought of the important matter and asked, "Did Heli Kappa disappear with him?"

"No." Nox took out the small bottle, and a transparent sleeping baby emerged from it. "As for why he didn't disappear, I don't quite understand the reason. I can only see that he is not a living creature in the traditional sense."

Lu Jinzhao took a quick glance and said, "He looks like some kind of pure energy body. In my opinion, we can lock him and the system in the Administration Bureau to use as energy. After all, they have done so many evil things, and it is only right that they should be trapped in a box without seeing the sun for eternity as blood bags."

"..." Nox gave a thumbs up: "You really are a living devil. I never realized that when you get crazy, you are even more crazy than me."

"No, I'm not as crazy as you."

"I won't talk nonsense with you any more," Nox handed the cat back to him. "I'm going to leave for the Administration to report later. You can stay and play for a while. I'll call you after the world line is reset."

"Okay." Lu Jinzhao took Qiansui and nodded.

Nox held out his hand. "It's a pleasure to work with you. Are you really not going to consider joining the Administration? Your system energy will eventually run out, and then both of you will dissipate together. Just for its sake, you can consider my proposal. It's valid for a long time."

Lu Jinzhao stretched out his hand and shook it back: "I'll consider it."

"Well, I'm leaving. I'll be staying at the Administration for the time being. Contact me if you have anything."

"Have a safe trip."

When Nox passed through the portal and disappeared from their sight, Qiansui raised his eyelids and asked, "What did 20 billion tell you?"

Lu Jinzhao answered truthfully: "I didn't say anything."

Qiansui stood up in his arms and said angrily: "You have changed! You have a little secret with me!"

"That's not what I meant." Lu Jinzhao pressed it down to prevent it from moving. "He said he knew all this would happen, but he refused to tell me how he knew it, and he refused to say anything about his background."

"..." Qiansui immediately became obedient, purring as his fur was stroked. "Then let's go ask him after Nox resets the world line and he is resurrected! Emmmm, if he still remembers all this..."

"It's obvious that he can't remember." Lu Jinzhao looked out the window: "So in order to find out the truth, we should go find Earl and ask him about his motives for doing all this. Maybe we can get something I want to know from him."

"Let's go, let's go. If we don't ask now, we'll have no chance to reset it. I'm really curious about what reasons could support him to commit such a horrific crime."

Lu Jinchao held Qiansui in his arms and walked slowly towards the dungeon of the imperial palace. Everyone else had their own things to do, but he had already completed all the things he should do, and he didn't want to be a brick that was moved wherever he was needed. He just wanted to be an idler from now on.

Chitose: "What do you think is the best way to arrange our travel route? The capital planet is being rebuilt after the disaster, so why don't we just fly to other countries? We can come back to play after the Blue Star Empire is rebuilt."

"Okay."

When the man and the cat walked to the door of the dungeon, they found that the place was heavily guarded.

Qiansui remembered something and reminded him, "Tumenquan ordered that no one is allowed to visit the prison without her permission, saying that it is to prevent other undiscovered traitors. Let's go in stealthily. After I upgrade the advanced system, you can also go invisible. With me here, it won't be a problem to avoid the various mechanical eyes that scan without blind spots inside."

"it is good."

The two of them turned invisible at the same time and moved freely in the dungeon, and soon found the prison where Earl was imprisoned at the bottom level.

There are only three cells on this entire floor.

They were imprisoned respectively: Earl, Mond, Shi Feng, and Wu Xiaolin.

Qiansui detected that there were detection cameras all around, monitoring heat, light, sound, etc., and any fluctuations would be detected as abnormal. Lu Jinchao simply did not remove the invisible state, let Qiansui go through the cell door, put a consciousness patch on Earl, and turned around and left.

"That's not right." Qiansui put consciousness patches on Mond, Shifeng, and Wu Xiaolin, and caught up with his host: "Since you don't plan to talk face to face, why don't you just ask me to come into the dungeon? Why bother to go there yourself?"

"I haven't seen it before, let's take a look at it in person."

"Are you sick..."

Halfway through the journey, an alarm sounded above his head. Lu Jinzhao stopped and looked at himself, but he couldn't see anything because he could see him the whole time. He could only turn his head and look at Qiansui: "Is my invisibility ineffective?"

Although the original setting allowed the assassin to move in stealth, there was a time limit. He just saw that the time in the original setting had exceeded it, and thought that this clause did not exist, so he relaxed and walked slowly. If he had known this, he would not have been lazy.

Chitose looked up and shook his head, "It's not you, it's probably the air raid alarm."

Another enemy is coming?

"It's really not quiet at all. Let's go out and take a look."

Arriving at the gate of the palace and looking upwards, I saw another sea of ​​starships.

Qiansui: "Fuck, is this Jian Tingzhi and the rest of his troops coming back???"

Lu Jinzhao: "Let's take a look at the situation first."

Tumenquan drove a mecha to confront him in mid-air: "Please explain your purpose and why you sent a fleet of warships to visit our country. If you can't give a reasonable answer, we will expel you in two minutes, including but not limited to the use of force!"

A humanoid intelligent creature walked out of the starship opposite. It looked like a male. He first bowed to Tumenquan and explained, "My dear niece, do you still remember me?"

Tumenquan: "...Are you His Majesty Edmund of the Kingdom of Thorin?"

Edmund Thorin: "Exactly! Princess, long time no see! I received your father's distress signal and immediately led my troops here. I didn't expect to find that you had already solved everything when I arrived here. My trip was in vain."

Since it was her father Tumenqian who sent the message for help, it is not surprising that the fleet has the authority to enter the airspace of the Blue Star Empire.

After walking out of the mecha, Tumenquan put on a proper social smile and replied, "Uncle Edmund, it's a rare occasion for you to visit me. I'm sorry that I can't entertain you well. You came all the way here, please stay for a few days. I'll invite my father over so he can catch up with you."

Edmund laughed. "Okay! Thank you for your help."

Tumen Quan led Edmund to fly into the palace, and asked the palace guards to lead the starship of the Thorin Kingdom Army to the passenger terminal. At the same time, he ordered his men to go to another palace to invite Tumen Qian.

Lu Jinzhao leaned against the pillar in the corridor and said, "It looks like there will be a celebration banquet tonight. Let's go back and have a good sleep. Then we can have a farewell dinner with them and leave here to travel."

Qiansui nodded obediently: "Okay."

After returning to the room, Lu Jinzhao fell asleep immediately and connected with Earl's consciousness.

"Since this isn't our first meeting, I won't introduce myself." Lu Jinzhao lifted Earl's chin and asked directly, "Tell me why you did all this?"

Earl's face was calm and his eyes were empty. It was hard to tell whether he was too desperate or blind, but he refused to answer.

It doesn't matter if he doesn't answer. It's Earl's consciousness that exists here, so he doesn't need to speak. Lu Jinchao raised his hand and pressed the cable interface on Earl's temple, where Qiansui had put a consciousness patch not long ago, which is also effective for consciousness bodies.

The other end of the cable is connected to his optical computer.

Although Wu Xiaolin may not have figured out why Earl did all this, there must be a reason driving Earl to do all this.

Whether Small World was written for the sake of logical consistency or Heri Kappa wrote it for him.

The reason why Nox's memory extractor failed to extract the information before was probably due to Heli Kappa's trick. Now, Heli Kappa himself is in danger, and he believes that he can extract some useful information from Earl's memory.

"This is the first time I use this thing. I don't know if it will hurt. If it does, just bear with it and it will pass." Lu Jinzhao lowered his voice to give people the illusion of gentleness, but in fact he turned the power to maximum with his hands.

Chitose: “Pfft.”

At the critical moment, Brother Chao's evil taste came out again.

Earl's memory was projected into a large light screen. The first thing that appeared was a beautiful face. Judging from the woman's pointed ears, she might not belong to the human race.

The woman hugged him and smiled happily: "Xiaobao, your father wrote to me and said he will be back in three days! Then he will take us to his hometown to settle down. From now on, our family of three will never be separated again."

A tender child's voice rang out: "Okay! We will never be separated from Daddy again!"

"Yes, little treasure. So if you go to school today, mom will make you something delicious when you come back, okay?"

Boy: “Okay!”

Chitose stuck out his tongue and licked his nose: "Here he is, a reminder of the villain's childhood. Let me see who his father is."

Not wanting to watch the story of loving mother and filial piety, Lu Jinzhao simply dragged the progress bar at the bottom and roughly looked at the way young Earl and his mother got along from the countless thumbnails that flashed by quickly. Finally, his finger stopped at the scene of war.

People in military uniforms and armed with standard weapons slaughtered people wantonly. Earl's mother blocked a bullet for young Earl and died holding him in her arms. Earl gritted his teeth and pretended to be a corpse under his mother's body, tears streaming down his face but not daring to cry out loud.

When there was no more sound around him, Earl crawled out from the pile of dead bodies and dragged his tired body to look for food.

It was nothing more than scenes of people being rejected for odd jobs and having to beg on the street or fight with stray dogs for food. He had seen at least 800 of these scenes, and Lu Jinzhao dragged the progress bar again.

After an unknown amount of time had passed, a child in fancy clothes bumped into Earl, and they both fell to the ground.

A pair of jeweled hands lifted the child up. Earl looked up and saw that it was the father he had always dreamed of seeing.

The moment he saw Earl's father's face, Qiansui's eyes widened: "Fuck!"

It turned out to be Tumen Qian.

Young Earl opened his mouth to shout, but before he could open his mouth, he was kicked by his father. Tumen Qian: "How dare you bump into the prince? How many lives do you have!? Come on, break his legs and throw him out to the suburbs!"

Young Earl felt like his internal organs were about to shift, but he still shouted with difficulty: "Dad, I am Xiaobao! There was a war on the planet Bliss, and my mother died to protect me. Dad, I finally found you..."

Tumenqian's face changed slightly. He tentatively took out a handkerchief to wipe Earl's dirty face. When he found that he was really his child, he immediately hugged him and shed two lines of tears.

"My child, your father has been looking for you so hard! I already know about your mother's situation. I have sent someone to bury her properly. Please come back with me."

Earl: “Yeah!”

The child who was hit also reached out his hand to Earl: "So you are my brother who was stranded on the planet Bris. You have suffered a lot. In the future, your brother and father will treat you well!"

"Eh?" Qiansui rubbed his eyes: "Did I see it wrong? I thought Tumenqian would not recognize him at all and let him fend for himself?"

Lu Jinzhao was obviously becoming interested. "Keep reading."

Young Earl was brought back to the palace, and he was transformed from a hungry and cold beggar into an envied prince, living a life of wearing gold and silver and enjoying top-notch resources.

Even though they dragged the progress bar to fast forward, they could vaguely see from the thumbnails that this kind of day lasted for two years.

Qiansui was completely confused: "I thought he would be bullied everywhere after being picked up, but now it seems that he is living a good life with brothers who are friendly to each other, fathers who are kind to their children, and too much money to spend."

"Although Tumenquan seemed to dislike him, he never treated him harshly. His reaction was just rather indifferent."

"As for Tumen Zhen, although that guy is jealous of Tumen Qian's favor and often does some small things, but with the Second Prince protecting him, I can't understand why he would turn evil."
