Chapter 962: with translation of chapter title

~8 min read 1,425 words

NO.85:witness

Indeed, when an utterly evil metal big face suddenly jumps out on the screen to greet oneself, the reaction of being startled or directly freezing will become the dominant instinct.

But for Aomo Lindun, who has both an electronic foster father and a cyber ghost (Zhouri Ningjing), has also let loose a digital beast (Witch Beast), and has even crammed in a super agent (Jie Si Ti Si and Gulite have connections),

Such a prank cannot be called scary.

He could, with the tone unchanged from when he spoke with the princess, speak out the name of that face:

"Alexis Kailifu."

And raise a hand to indicate the princess need not worry, return to the original matter—

—Don't forget, she still came with a tray.

Not only are the people inside waiting, but holding the tray all the time is also a test of the forearm muscles.

Although the person involved looks indifferent, he still needs a relatively quiet place.

Even generally speaking, walking outside one can still hear the talking and laughing of a group of people inside.

Sai Luo, who gets along quite well with Shima, and Qian, who has many things to say to Liuhua, for Aomo, the voice recognition priority of these two is still fairly high, able to easily distinguish them from a crowd of voices.

Relaxation belongs to them; busyness was left to Koisaki Hikaru, who didn't even come to the KTV team-building and simply stayed at the junk shop.

And Aomo, who strolled past in front of the outdoor corridor.

"Hmm, indeed I don't need to introduce myself, not bad, not bad, I've been looking forward to meeting you."

"That's truly an honor." Aomo smiled, politely, yet also carried a coldness that keeps people at a distance.

After all, to be frank, Alexis this kind of joker has indeed become somewhat templated in recent years.

Not to mention far away, Evolto, who occasionally harasses Aomo's private messages, is this kind of guy.

Although he has considerable talent, he can generally be put to use,

but when not needed, this kind of guy belongs to the existence that is both annoying and lacking observational value.

Let alone his past.

Seemingly the guardian of Shinjo Qian, actually just a bad adult who leads kids astray and incidentally reaps benefits; that is Aomo's impression of them.

Perhaps for Shinjo Qian, she cannot deny the earlier mutually needed relationship, thus cannot truly hate Alexis Kailifu.

But from Aomo's perspective as a non-party, he rather hopes that the brave police really appear and arrest this guy.

Even if this guy was once a law enforcement department leader, knowing the law and breaking it only adds to the guilt.

However, even without the brave police, he still has super agents, or rather, a more authoritative translation would be:

Super Investigator.

"Alexis! What are you doing!!"

A very agitated electronic male voice comes from this JUNK computer that is still not turned off.

No wonder it's a junk computer that can occasionally tweak the warrior's holy sword, even swap components and upgrade.

Even after being turned on for several days straight without smoking, and without letting Gulite's voice distort, it perfectly supports the Super Investigator's normal operation in terms of computing power and rendering, able to directly appear on Aomo's terminal light screen from that screen.

Only he can directly, in the computer world's computer world, directly go head-to-head with Alexis Kailifu!

"Oh dear oh dear~ this isn't Gulite, huh," even if his face is directly punched, he can still rely on that tough face to push back, and while pushing back, he can speak calmly; Alexis Kailifu, on the other hand, still maintains the composure and dignity befitting his posture, "also long time no see, oh, oh, can't say that, actually I've also seen him quite a few times on Heiqian's screen, that level of activity is really hard work."

"I heard you were locked up by Heiqian; I thought you had turned over a new leaf." When the other side didn't directly retaliate, Gulite also put away the fists he usually swings upon meeting.

And the Alexis Kailifu who has just stood up straight still has a face that cannot reassure people, yet appears pleasant.

"Can't say it's not, after all I really have helped you guys~"

Looking at his attitude, Aomo couldn't help but recall that in the crossover plot of Super Robot Wars 30, this guy, after losing his immortality, once became furious and defeated, breaking through his defenses.

I don't know if, here, he will reproduce the scene when facing the same situation.

However, such conditions themselves are hard to achieve; although the current world is similarly full of possibilities in the Gulite universe's collapse era, it is still far from being like the Super Robot Wars world.

The only thing unchanged is that Gulite is still here, and this place is still the computer world.

To be frank, as long as these two points exist, being able to catch once means being able to catch a second time.

But what he said is also correct; it's not yet the time. Aomo, on his way here, heard Qian talk about many things on her side, and thus learned that besides using release water with chain attacks to remind himself of his reaction, he also sent back the Qian who had been caught off guard by Heiqian.

Whether it's turning over a new leaf or not is hard to say, but he indeed helped a great deal, giving both sides the chance to regroup, which is why the current smooth gathering and preparation became possible.

"Cannot deny, but this largely cannot reduce your sentence much," Aomo stood at the corner at the end of the corridor, leaning against the wall to draw a soundproof barrier, "As far as I know, the victims related to you are not just Qian; there must have been many before her, and Gulite is also one of your victims."

Those called the new century middle school students were once entities united with Gulite; they themselves are the product of being shattered and scattered after losing to Alexis Kailifu at the beginning of 4S Gulite.

In other words, the Alexis Kailifu of that time belonged to one strike that scattered Gulite's three souls and seven spirits; from the nature of the event, this is an extremely heinous act of resisting law enforcement, and Gulite would have been justified in executing him on the spot, with no one able to object.

Of course, as the paragon hero of children, Gulite's values are utterly free of personal grudges, so executing him on the spot cannot be justified from the premise.

The very reaction of withdrawing because the opponent didn't retaliate, turning from direct confrontation into verbal dialogue, is itself the best proof.

"Do you want to atone, Alexis Kailifu?"

"The word 'atonement'... I can't say it," Alexis Kailifu let out a few defiant, desperate laughs, "You probably wouldn't believe I suddenly repented, would you."

"But if we let that guy succeed and let this universe be completely destroyed, then there really wouldn't be anything worth watching."

"If that's the case..."

Gulite fell silent for a moment; just as Aomo thought he was about to decide to act, preparing to speak the words he had thought of to stop the conversation while listening, he instead heard him say:

"Then, after I disappear, could you ask me to protect everyone?"

These words landed with impact, creating a full four seconds of silence afterward, after which Alexis Kailifu's exclamation: "... Oh."

From under the cloak, a black hand extended, rubbing his metal-constructed head.

"Well, that's an unexpected request; have you already made your decision?"

"Yes, not just me, they too; for this I hope Aomo can serve as a witness."

He said this, turning to Aomo before the screen: "Can you?"

"... Of course."

Aomo nodded, acknowledging the resolve to die that they held.

This is simply unavoidable.

When the true Gulite merges with the entire multiverse, the Gulite of Azalea Terrace is merely the consciousness they left at Azalea Terrace.

Their existence hindered Yuta's attempt to meet the true Gulite, but that attempt itself was extremely dangerous, something everyone knows yet tacitly avoids mentioning in front of the parties involved—a deed tantamount to suicide.

Everyone knows, even the Gulite themselves.

But they have already prepared for their own shutdown.

And the very fact that they raised this point also means……

They believe that by then, Yuta will also make the same choice.
