Chapter 267

Player 275's world.

In the pale blue halo, the dome of the laboratory was transparent. Through the dome, one could see the star sea outside. The stars moved slowly, and occasionally meteors streaked across, flickering with faint light.

This was a place Zongfang was too familiar with—his laboratory.

Everything in the laboratory seemed unusually quiet, with only the low hum of machines echoing in the air. The floor under his feet was smooth, silver-white metal, making no sound when stepped on. Tall data towers were arranged all around, each tower flickering with green light, like the pulse of life, and data was transmitted rapidly between the towers in the form of light beams.

He walked toward the console.

He knew his habits; he left a record every time he entered or exited the laboratory, so Zongfang wanted to find the traces of another self in this world based on the records.

Zongfang flipped to the latest record: 【17:58 PM, Human Observation Record】

He frowned, his eyelids jumping when he saw the word 'human'. But thinking this wasn't his world, his heart relaxed slightly.

According to the recorded time, it showed that another him had just left the laboratory not long ago.

Zongfang wanted to go out and find him, but froze in place when he caught a glimpse of the giant container on the side.

In the center of the laboratory, a giant transparent container was suspended on a magnetic array, filled with pale blue liquid inside. A blurry figure could be vaguely seen in the liquid—a woman with long hair, swaying gently with the flow of the liquid.

She looked like a pickle soaked in formalin.

On the console next to it, hundreds of data streams were scrolling rapidly on the screen, constantly analyzing the situation of this creature.

Zongfang stepped forward, looking at the label pasted under the container—

Biological Attribute: Ancient Human.

Gender: Female.

Name: Experimental Subject X.

Clearly, the 'him' in this world was too lazy to even learn this human's name.

If it were someone else like Ka'er who came, seeing the scene in front of him, he would definitely be perverted.

But Zongfang just restored his indifferent expression after a brief surprise.

For some reason, he just had a feeling that he felt the 'him' in this world seemed to be very tired of everything.

Zongfang walked toward the console, his fingertips skimming the panel, and the holographic interface in front of him popped open instantly. Countless star maps and data charts were suspended in front of him.

His gaze skimmed over those flickering charts, the blue-green light reflecting on his lenses, making his eyes appear deeper.

Zongfang pressed a button expressionlessly.

A red warning light flashed instantly.

The light around the laboratory became dazzling instantly, accompanied by an alarm sound, and the air trembled slightly. A line of cold words appeared on the projection wall: "Permission Warning—Illegal Intrusion Detecting."

After waiting for about ten minutes, the laboratory door opened.

A silver-haired man wearing a white lab coat walked in. He saw the man standing in front of the container at a glance. He had the same silver hair as himself, only not as long as his, and his figure was very familiar. Only then did the man slowly turn around, revealing a face exactly the same as his own.

"I want to ask you some questions. You'd better answer me quickly, because someone else is waiting for me," Zongfang said.

Player 747's world.

Anubis stood in the corridor of the apartment.

He walked to the door of room 702 and tried to enter the password. With a 'beep', the door opened.

Anubis's idea was very simple: find himself, say the forbidden word, and go back to wait for Qiao. However, just as he stepped into the room, a female voice sounded briskly: "Why did you come back so soon?"

Anubis was stunned, looking at the person opposite him, a short-haired girl who wasn't tall.

"Bi, what's wrong with you? Did you forget to bring something?" The girl looked at him puzzled, finding that his clothes were completely different from before he went out, and his hair seemed shorter too.

"Where did you go?"

Anubis realized that the person in front of him was the player in Qiao's mouth.

He didn't want to cause extra trouble and bring trouble to Qiao, so he didn't say his true identity, but nodded along, saying with no emotion: "Dropped something, came back to get it."

The girl felt something was strange, but the next second she walked up diligently, wanting to hug his arm.

"Since you're back, why don't you have a meal with me before going to training?"

Anubis reacted quickly, dodging to the side, and moved a step to the side with his feet, standing a bit further away from her.

Perhaps this action hurt her self-esteem too much, and the girl's eye sockets were instantly filled with tears.

She looked at Anubis crying and questioned: "Why are you always like this?"

Anubis's gaze was still without ripples, looking at her without saying a word.

The girl collapsed. She felt that she was experiencing cold violence in this broken game. What kind of experience of being loved? She didn't experience a damn thing! "It's fine if you usually ignore me when I talk to you, but just touching you a little, you dodge as if you have some mysophobia. What's wrong with me! Where am I not good enough! Speak!"

Anubis was a bit dazed by the girl who lost control of her emotions in front of him. He was silent for a few seconds, and finally opened his mouth: "You are very good."

He could feel the other party's sadness, but that sadness wasn't because of him, at least not the current him, but the 'him' in another world.

But Anubis didn't turn a blind eye to the sadness of the person in front of him, but chose to tell the truth: "You don't have to doubt yourself. At the same time, I hope you understand that if I refuse to get along with you again and again, it only explains one problem, which is that I don't like you."

The girl still had tears on her face, but stopped crying.

She asked: "Aren't you supposed to like me?"

Anubis shook his head very definitely and said: "I have someone I like, she is waiting for me."

The girl seemed to have calmed down. She felt that Anubis, who spoke directly like this, was more straightforward than the Anubis who had always ignored her and was cold to her, and it made her not so internally conflicted.

She had originally wanted to complain about this character, but at this moment, she dispelled this idea. She looked up, her gaze full of doubt: "But I'm the only naturally born female in this world. Who is the person you like?"

Anubis blurted out wanting to say Qiao, but remembered her current situation of being monitored, and stopped in time.

Just then, Li Yi pushed the door in while gnawing on an apple, "I said, can I use the toilet? The one in my room is broken again."

Anubis pointed to Li Yi who came in and said to the girl: "Him."

The girl's pupils shook, greatly shocked, but immediately became a bit excited. She bit her fist, her eyes full of 'I got it'.

Li Yi was gnawing on the apple blankly, with bright juice still on the side of his mouth.

"What? What about me?"

"Can I borrow the toilet or not?"

Thank you for everyone's concern. I feel my body is warm, I will take medicine properly, and you should also take care of yourselves~ Let the panda return today, haha.
