It was quiet in the ward, and neither of the two spoke.
The training experienced by the staff of the Time and Space Agency reminded them that they should mainly complete the instructions and mission goals, even if they died. Most of the staff, including him, are lonely, everyone has their own story, has a past that is unfair or doesn't want to be recalled, and is someone who has 'dead' once.
Although the first rule of the bureau is very clear, more often, the safety protection and rescue measures in the bureau are sufficient. Except for the sudden accident that happened in the fortress and similar to the big devil, the staff were basically safe. The Administration gave them a new life, gave them another meaning to survive, and let them try their best to make up for the regret that they were restricted for various reasons and could not use their abilities to the best of their ability before their consciousness dissipated. Happy to work for the Authority.
So before this, Gu Xiyu had never questioned his decision. Lu Ziqing's danger value, the task of world stability is still his primary goal. For him, as long as the task can be completed, including himself can be 'sacrifice'.
It was the first time he felt so intuitively, a word that might be called 'care'.
Maybe he couldn't give a very direct emotional response, but through Lu Ziqing's emotions, he could deduce that his simple and rude way of doing things might be wrong. At least for Lu Ziqing, if this matter is not handled properly, it may have a certain degree of impact on him.
Gu Xiyu looked at the lost boy beside the bed, and subconsciously replied, "Okay, I'll pay attention in the future."
"Then I'm going abroad, you're not angry anymore?"
After hearing him mention this, Lu Ziqing said aggrieved: "How dare I be angry with you? What if you swallow the medicine and threaten me next time?"
Gu Xiyu twitched the corner of his mouth helplessly, and Lu Ziqing became even more angry: "You still laugh?"
"Laugh when you're happy." After he finished saying this, his fingers suddenly tickled lightly.
Does he really feel happy
He retracted the smile on his lips and added: "Also, I didn't deliberately take medicine indiscriminately."
"There should be something wrong with the tonics sent by the Lu family. The family has finished eating, but I actually stole some and hid them in the second drawer on the left side of the closet. When you get home, help me take them out and test them in the hospital. Come on, get some evidence."
"... Tonic?" Lu Ziqing didn't expect this to happen. He seemed a little shocked, and stayed in place for a long time.
Seeing that his expression was getting more and more wrong, Gu Xiyu reminded aloud: "I am sure in my heart, don't startle the snake, and wait for the report to come out."
Lu Ziqing clenched his fists, suppressed his temper that was about to explode, reached out and rubbed his head helplessly a few times: "My dad knows about your hospitalization, the money has already been sent, I'll go and help you handle the admission procedures and expenses first. ."
Leaving this sentence, the teenager left his ward.
Lu Ziqing usually looks like a rebellious child who hasn't grown up, but in fact he looks quite sensible and stable.
The message interface on the panel flickered with a reminder light. Gu Xiyu saw that there was a response from the branch.
[Hello, mission executor, this is Administration L12-31. We will answer your questions and feedback as follows:
Regarding whether the latest W-XH3771 intelligent system will reset in each world, yes, this is normal, please don't worry. We focus on efficiency, lightness and the highest response for the latest system, especially it will have a close relationship with the main system of the central station, in order to prevent it from overlapping with other mission world data when it transmits estimated data to the main system , so whenever the task of a world ends and the big data result is successfully entered into the main system, it will be reset. Including the hibernation setting is also to ensure the caching and sorting of data, which are normal phenomena. According to our prediction, this situation should not greatly affect the execution of the task.
Second, we have obtained the latest results for you regarding the status of the main soul of the mission target. The main spirit is still held in the Abandoned Point X central station, and is in a stable sleeping state. The possibility of perceiving the encounter of the distraction fragments and affecting the progress of the mission is 0.0001%.
Third, the data connection between the branch and the central station is in good condition, the control room is tracking stably, your status is also under our control and we are always paying close attention to the implementation of the task, please rest assured. At the same time, we have also done the scanning and detection of the intelligent system for you. The results are as follows. According to all the data, the system is running normally and there is no possibility of being invaded.
Finally, thank you for your contact and condolences. There is no problem with the operation of the branch for the time being. Please don't worry.
Come on in the mission, we are waiting for your return!]
Gu Xiyu read the news back and forth several times before closing his eyes and closing the panel.
Since the bureau said so, there should be no major problems with the system except for the underworld.
The mobile phone on the table beside the bed suddenly vibrated slightly, Gu Xiyu opened his eyes, grabbed it and read the name of the person who sent the message, and clicked in without any hesitation.
At the same time, the management branch far away from the boundary of time and space—
"Director, I have tried all the codes, but the energy of the Great Demon King is far beyond the frequency that can be used for intrusion within our range. The system of remote hacking into the X central station is completely unworkable." Everyone in the control room was still bald. day.
According to the data they can obtain so far, Commander Gu has successfully completed the mission of the first world, and ended with a beautiful result of reducing the world danger value to 0. Judging from the fact that he has entered the second world, he himself is not in any serious trouble, which is fortunate.
Even so, they couldn't let Commander Gu leave him alone and keep him in the dark. The Great Demon King has a gloomy temperament and has a mind and illness. When he came in, he was like a lunatic who couldn't think well. Who knows when he will break out and hurt Gu Xiyu
The director scratched his hair irritably, then turned to the staff at the other console and asked, "Where's the sub-system? It's the one on Commander Gu. I remember that it has an emergency contact program that can bypass the intelligent system and communicate directly with Commander Gu. . This thing, how did you try it?"
The girl in the white coat shook her head, and her ponytail swayed with her movements: "No, the Great Demon King should have readjusted the secondary system on his body through the energy field when the Commander was connected to the central station. We started The set frequency has expired, and the commander cannot be contacted at all..."
In short, Gu Xiyu is now completely like a cage woven by the Great Demon King, isolating him from everyone in the outside world. The only way to get in touch with him is to break through the existence of the Great Demon King.
However, the team they sent over not long ago to directly raid the X central station not only failed, but even almost gave their life there.
The funny thing is that they were able to come back alive because the Great Demon King showed mercy.
"Director, the General Bureau of the Nine-layer World has just sent us a message!" The female deputy suddenly said in surprise, "It is said that Commander Lin has recovered from the injury and will come back to our branch soon, and will assist us in solving the rescue of Commander Gu. action!"
The commander Lin she was referring to was the former commander of the 31st Bureau, who temporarily cultivated in the ninth-layer world because of an injury.

At Gu Xiyu's request, Xie Chunhua didn't know that he was injured and was hospitalized, thinking that he just went back to the Lu family early.
Lu Ziqing submitted the tonic, and the test results came out soon. It turns out that not every batch of additional drug ingredients is particularly obvious, and some are even safe to confuse people. It's just that Gu Xiyu kept an eye on it. After learning about it from Aunt Zhang, he secretly kept a little bit of almost everything, so this result was enough to file a complaint with the Lu family as evidence.
Since he had prepared in advance, of course he would not only have this thing in his hand.
Gu Xiyu contacted lawyer Li who helped him deal with the land deed left by his original grandfather, and the other party recommended him a colleague friend who was particularly good at handling cases in this area to help him deal with these matters.
When the Lu family received the lawsuit, Lu Mingren, who heard about it, was so angry that he left the company before he got off work, and rushed directly to the main house to have a fight with Lu Chenghe.
In Lu Chenghe's study, Lu Mingren slapped his desk angrily: "Dad, are you crazy? So what you said before, the happy things, are actually fake?!"
Lu Chenghe's expression was not as kind as he used to be, indifferent and cruel like a big boss: "What age is it, how could there be such an evil thing?"
Lu Mingren couldn't believe it: "You really did something with those tonics?"
"Dad, Ziqing and I are also from the family. You know that we are likely to eat those things. Even so, you still do it? You are not afraid that my grandson and I will have bad things?!"
Lu Chenghe's reaction was quite cold-blooded: "So didn't I say it at first? Those are all for my dear 'daughter-in-law', of course you don't touch it. No matter what, you and Ziqing won't touch too much, and it won't have much impact."
However, Lu Mingren laughed and said coldly: "I think your real idea is that you have so many children and grandchildren. If there is an accident, it's not bad for me and Ziqing, right?"
Lu Chenghe sat at the table, still smoking a long pipe, and didn't answer.
"Our Lu family is so short of money? In order to obtain a piece of land at the lowest cost, we actually need to use such a frivolous method."
When it comes to money, Lu Chenghe's reaction is a bit big: "It's just so lacking!"
The ups and downs of his chest were very strong: "I'm not afraid to tell you now, don't look at our Lu family's great career, everyone's progress is very fast in this era, and there are more and more competitors, and the Lu family is only superficial! Not to mention that your company's performance this year has dropped by a few percentage points compared with previous years, and the situation of other companies is also not optimistic!"
"Just your brothers, your uncles and uncles, how many of them are reliable? All of them just love to enjoy and have fun in the world. The company let them run corrupt high-level management and improper management at the bottom, and the benefits have long been lower than before. We urgently need a plan that can make a lot of money to stabilize again, to be honest, with our current background, we really can’t afford the land under Gu Xiyu’s hands!”
Lu Chenghe smiled when he said this, but it was a little bitter: "The Lu family used to be such a brilliant family, but now they can't even afford a piece of land."
Seeing the white-haired old man worrying about the future of his family, Lu Mingren couldn't bear it, but he insisted on disapproving of his actions: "Then you can't almost kill a person because of this!"
"Anyway, the lawsuit letter has been sent here. When you come up with such a bad solution in a desperate situation, you should be prepared to face the consequences of failure!"
Lu Chenghe really designed this matter with the mentality of breaking the boat. If it wasn't really desperate, he wouldn't have used such a bad and urgent method. Logically speaking, this matter should be carried out perfectly, including the dose of the drug, which has been specially calculated, which can definitely boil Gu Xiyu to death without being discovered.
He didn't understand, even if Gu Xiyu really took out some tonics to share with the rest of the family, his body should be broken now, how could it be possible to stay in the hospital for a few days? From another point of view, since he can vomit blood seriously, it means that his body has suffered a lot of damage, and it is impossible to be as good as he is now!
No, he has to think of a way, even if he has sex...
Lu Mingren suddenly said again: "You want to kill him, and then use my relationship with him to get the property he got during the validity of the marriage. But even if this plan is successful, I'm afraid you will be disappointed."
Hearing this, Lu Chenghe looked at his son in confusion, saw him push the frame on the bridge of his nose and said, "Forgot to tell you, Gu Xiyu and I divorced a long time ago."
"What did you say?! You, how dare you—" Lu Chenghe got up from his chair excitedly, ignoring the pipe that fell on the floor, "Impossible, how, how could no one find out..."
"When did you leave?" Lu Chenghe asked as he opened the drawer and flipped through his small notes.
Lu Mingren remembered that day and reported it calmly. I don't know what Lu Chenghe saw, but the moment he heard his answer, he suddenly fell into the chair weakly, his eyes staring at the notebook in his hand.
He clutched his chest, his facial features wrinkled together: "You, Mingren, you are obviously the most obedient child in this family..."
"I often wonder, if I wasn't so obedient in the past and let you arrange everything, would I live a different life today."

Gu Xiyu found out later that the lawyer Xu recommended by Lawyer Li to help him was Xu Wenyi, Xu Chengxuan's biological father.
This was only discovered when Xu Wenyi came to the hospital to meet him, when the system suddenly popped up the introduction about Xu Chengxuan's biological father. Because of this incident, he met Xu Chengxuan more often. Xu Wenyi did a good job in the legal world, and he was quite busy. After knowing that they knew each other, he would sometimes directly ask his son to send him some important documents after school, or when he offered to visit a doctor, he would tell him some things. talk.
"...Well, my dad has sent the copy to your email, you can check it when you have time. He said that the Lu family has also found a team of lawyers to deal with this matter, and it may take a while to get along with them, but you have something here. You're well prepared, so don't worry too much."
When Lu Ziqing came over with the chicken soup cooked by Aunt Zhang, he happened to see Gu Xiyu smiling and talking to Xu Chengxuan.
"..." My heart was a little unhappy again.
His little mother had never smiled at him so nicely!
Gu Xiyu glanced at Lu Ziqing, who walked to the bed with a stinky face, and accidentally bumped into Xu Chengxuan, he sighed helplessly in his heart, and then asked Xu Chengxuan, who seemed to be in a trance again: "You came in just now. Up to now, I have been stunned several times, did something happen?"
Lu Ziqing coughed lightly and said dissatisfiedly, "I'm also very unhappy, why didn't you ask me if I had any unpleasant things in school?"
Gu Xiyu asked casually, "What unhappy thing happened to you?"
"…I lost my eraser!"
"Okay, I'll buy you a new one when I leave the hospital." After Gu Xiyu returned, he turned his attention to Xu Chengxuan.
"… "
Xu Chengxuan didn't answer him, but the intelligent system came out first: "Your mission goal is not Xu Chengxuan, aren't you afraid that Lu Ziqing will be unhappy?"
He paused and replied, "The male protagonist's condition is also very important to me, and of course I need to give proper care."
"As for Ziqing - I'll find time to coax him back later."
Lu Ziqing stopped talking.
Xu Chengxuan, who was struggling for a long time, suddenly whispered, "I haven't seen Mianmian for a few days, and she has been asking for leave and not coming to class."
His tone sounded low, even a rare bit of bewilderment.
After Xu Chengxuan said this, Gu Xiyu remembered that since he was admitted to the hospital that day, he never saw Lin Mianmian again, and he didn't even receive any news from her.
