Help, I've become a paper man

The afternoon sun was warm and bright, shining through the French windows and falling into the study. Logically, while illuminating the study, the sandy curtains with embroidery on them accompanied by the leaves outside the window, swaying in the breeze and then falling on the floor together, could also make the room look somewhat cozy.

It’s a pity that there is no such opportunity now.

After Yan Changyue left, Song Yi rushed into the study and took out the redeemed props. On it were written six big words "Many Missing Fish Case". After using it, it was made into the appearance of a file, which was really similar to the original. However, it was only an imitation in appearance. Inwardly, it was more like a puzzle game.

Turning to the first page, the same case name was written on it, and the case number and sensitive information were coded. Song Yi's heart beat faster at the first glance after using the props. He couldn't help but ask Noah's Ark if this was real or fake. Noah's Ark was still arrogant and only replied, "This is a prop." This was enough to reassure Song Yi and he continued to flip through the pages.

The paper inside had a sense of age, and besides being yellowed, it was also damaged and stained, which made Song Yi wonder, who on earth developed the Noah's Ark, and why didn't they include a complaint phone number when it was put into use? How could such a product be sold?

"I'm not talking about you this time, I'm scolding the props." Song Yi deliberately explained, but it sounded more sarcastic than trying to coax Noah's Ark.

Noah's Ark did not accept the groundless accusation and directly threw the instruction manual in front of him, emphasizing the use of this puzzle game... No, it was the method of using the prop. After opening the file, you can see the first page, which is the first relatively complete page. You need to find relevant information by yourself and complete the content of the damaged position to unlock the next level. Then the next page will be refreshed, and part of the content inside will be automatically repaired, but some damage will still remain, and it is still waiting to be filled with content.

Song Yi was busy with this, constantly facing new problems and looking for answers to them. After collecting all the clues on a page, he would jump to the next page and continue the previous operation.

I originally thought that the props would give the answer directly, but it turned out to be a detective simulator. With the hint, it was indeed much simpler than searching randomly before, but it was still not an easy task, at least not for Song Yi. He even missed the time when he had half of Yan Changyue's soul. Then, when he needed to use his brain, he would be "as if assisted by God". Although he didn't know why, the answer had already jumped out.

But now, in order to get the answer, he needs to jump out and climb up and down in the study to look through the information.

Once you start looking, a lot of information will be needed, from the weather to the local customs and accents. Song Yi even suspected that Noah's Ark was deliberately making things difficult for him, the Stardust baby, and forcing him to learn. He used to know very little about this world, but now he has more or less understood the division of regions.

Yes, that's right. There are no countries in this world. The land is not small and is controlled by major families. Small families also have different alliances, which divide the land into different areas. Song Yi has a general understanding of it. After completing the fill-in-the-blank questions, he threw them aside. Now there are too many things he needs to check. The main reason why he can stay here for a while is Yan Changyue - he finally understood what the sentence "Yan Changyue has no territory of his own" meant. In those areas, there is no territory controlled by Yan Changyue, but he has industries everywhere.

Song Yi even thought briefly that this person was like a bird, the kind that never stops, flying out without stopping and without the need for a nest.

But soon, his mind was caught up in something else and he continued to do the fill-in-the-blank questions. Time passed quickly and the books spread out from him. After he changed his position, they started a new "stall". Soon the ground was piled with books and at a glance, there was nowhere to step.

Indeed, when he heard the footsteps, Song Yi was squatting on a chair. After reading the journal in front of him, he turned his wrist and put the books under him on the highest part. Now, the books had been stacked to the limit and he could sit directly on it.

He was still leaning forward, almost lying on the table, comparing the newspaper in his hand with the pages of the file, trying to find the answer to the stain.

As the footsteps slowed down, Yan Changyue's voice sounded, saying, "Do you need help?"

Song Yi was startled for a moment and then came out of his concentrated state. He didn't feel any malice, nor did he expect that it would be Yan Changyue who came. He thought that the housekeeper wanted to take him out to dinner. This kind of situation had happened before, but the main thing was that he didn't expect Yan Changyue to come back so soon.

He subconsciously asked back: "Where is Xu Jing?"

As soon as the last word fell, their eyes met in the air. Song Yi wanted to punch himself just now to hear what he was saying!

He immediately changed the topic and asked, "You're back so early?"

...It's better not to say it! As expected, swimming in the ocean of knowledge is something that smart people do. For him, swimming around will only make his head more dizzy!

Song Yi took a deep breath and was trying to mobilize the remaining brain cells to organize his words with difficulty. Yan Changyue had already walked to the table, put her fingers on his head, lowered her head and moved closer, her breath almost brushing the bridge of his nose and falling on his cheek.

Yan Changyue spoke again, in a joking tone, and said, "How about taking a rest first? It seems that your most important task now is to take care of yourself. The housekeeper said that you haven't eaten today. There is no rush to find the finished story. Besides, it may not have happened in this world line."

Song Yi raised his head suddenly and almost bumped into Yan Changyue's forehead. Fortunately, he was stopped by the other's hand. Even though his nose rubbed against Yan Changyue's fingers, the intimacy just now disappeared by half.

He asked: "This world line? What does it mean?"

Yan Changyue moved her hand away and placed it on the back of his hand, saying in a calm tone: "Well, yes, you have entered the dungeon, so you should know that the real world is not the only one that exists. The system and Stardust can enter more areas than humans."

The two people's hands overlapped and covered the top of the file. Just as they blocked the part of the information on the page, Song Yi heard his own heartbeat. He seemed to understand something, but it didn't stop him from cursing Noah's Ark in his heart.

It's just that he cursed for a little too long. By the time he came to his senses and thought of one thing after another, the two of them had maintained the same posture for half a minute. Any embarrassment would have been a little dull. Song Yi held the other's hand instead. His brain was unexpectedly calm. He didn't feel his heart pounding, but he could hear his own heartbeat clearly. It was no longer rapid and flustered, and every beat was exceptionally clear.

Song Yi concluded: I felt like a rat before, but now I feel like a thief with a guilty conscience. Last time someone else escaped, but this person didn't feel guilty at all, even though he asked others as soon as he opened his mouth. Then...

But why? Is it because he experienced life and death once, and this is the sequelae?

"Okay, got it. Thank you for your reminder. Don't disturb my mind!"

After Song Yi finished speaking, he not only pulled his hand back, but also flipped over the table, jumped to the other side, and pushed Yan Changyue's back. While speaking, he forcibly drove the owner of this place out, which could be regarded as rebellion against Tiangang.

Yan Changyue didn't care. Instead, she raised her hands and walked out cooperatively. She said "see you later" and walked towards the stairs. Song Yi was about to close the door, but when he saw Yan Changyue's actions, he leaned out again and asked loudly from behind: "See you at dinner?"

Yan Changyue didn't look back, and continued to leave. But a smiling voice floated over, saying, "I'm free recently. You can call me if you need help."

Song Yi asked: "When will Xu Jing come?"

This sentence did not receive an answer, unless Yan Changyue waved goodbye as an answer.

Song Yi couldn't help laughing out loud. He raised his voice and said even louder: "Welcome home, Boss Yan!"
