I created the Anomaly Control Bureau

Chapter 1056, Chapter 1051: "Friends"

Marx and Engels explained:
"I'm sorry, I don't remember what our relationship is, and I always run into some problems whenever I try to find out who you are, such as your name and what you really look like."

"I only have a few memories of actually communicating with you. The last time was also the first time I could recall speaking to you. You must have been meeting me for the first time then, so your attitude then was quite different from now."

Xiaoti looked enlightened, smiled, and said:
"Ah, that's true. If you had said something like that to me when I first found you, even if I didn't show it, I would definitely have had some bad thoughts in my heart, since we were just strangers back then."

"But things are different now. You may not remember, but I can tell you..."

"We are friends."

Her expression was sincere and gentle, as if she were afraid of frightening Marne.

Marx and Engels nodded:

"So what is our relationship? What are we doing here? What are we doing? Sorry for asking so many questions..."

The fairy waved her hand and said with a smile:

“It’s okay, I understand. You don’t need to explain anything to me. You’ve lost your memory of me and the current situation. This is easy for me to understand. You and I are friends, but not the kind of friends that are most common among humans.”

"You probably don't remember, so let me explain briefly. The concept of a fairy's friend is different from yours. If you knew that we can't lie, you would understand that for us, this classification is much clearer than how you humans divide relationships. Of course, different fairies will have different standards."

"As for me, I don't have many friends now, because I don't get along well with most intelligent beings, but you are different..."

"You and I have a lot in common."

Her eyes lit up slightly as she spoke.

Mar and Eng said curiously:
"For example what?"

Upon hearing this, the fairy girl recalled with great interest:
"For example, we once talked all night about the current world situation, what impact the existence of different 'abnormal' forces or individuals would have on the whole world, and who would eventually destroy themselves."

"Who else seems powerful but could actually be caught by us? Who are the guys we should absolutely avoid messing with? And which guys can we recruit in the future?"

Upon hearing this, Mar and Eng immediately asked:
Who do you think we can win over?

But the fairy shook her head:
"It's not just my opinion, but our opinion on who we can win over. In our discussions, the most undisputed one is the legendary Fist Master who currently dominates the martial arts world. If we can find a way to cooperate with him, we can naturally solve many troublesome problems and make our plans go more smoothly."

"And to be honest, you and I both feel that even if we can't win him over, we have to find a way to create a situation so that this guy will never stand against us. You and I have both thought of a lot of ways to do this."

"For example, I think we can cultivate his sense of responsibility for martial arts, and we can bind him to the interests of the martial arts community so that he will not be hostile to us as much as possible."

"And you think you can find a way to help him build more intimate relationships. There aren't many things that can influence such martial artists, but the facts have proven that Divine Fist cares about the people he loves."

"If we can get the right person close to him, it might be good for us too."

"And it's not impossible, after all, we can use his pursuit of martial arts to make some people his disciples, and it would be even better if we could also promote his sense of responsibility."

"You should realize that although my suggestions and yours are different, we have not had any disagreements; in fact, the situation can be said to be completely opposite."

"Your and my views are even complementary, so it feels a bit strange to say this to you again now, but I still have to say that you and I have many similarities, as well as many differences."

"Regardless, you and I get along quite well, so... I think we're friends."

She looked at Marne with sincere eyes, as if trying to persuade him instead.

Mar and Eng blinked:

"Hmm, now that you put it that way, I can basically understand. Although I still can't remember anything, I can understand and believe the situation you described, hmm..."

He felt he was overlooking something, but after thinking about it carefully, he couldn't find anything.

Considering the time constraints, Marx and Engels didn't think too much about it:
"So when you say we're friends, you mean real friends, not just a casual remark, and we seem to have some plans, and sometimes we discuss them..."

The fairy nodded and pointed to Mar and Engels:

"If the plan succeeds, you should have already sensed it. When I first approached you, I only wanted to use you as some kind of raw material, but after getting to know you, I changed my mind."

"We've teamed up to create something really interesting..."

She looked at Marne expectantly, silently waiting for his answer.

Maren frowned slightly and said:

"You mean the Bureau of Anomalies, something that can control all anomalous entities and extract their power, and while it seems to exist in some kind of space around the world, it also seems to be inside my body, right?"

For some reason, he felt there was something odd about his words, as if there were some noteworthy issues with the vocabulary...

The fairy smiled with delight:

"Although I am not real, I am still very happy to hear that we succeeded. Yes, you are right, this thing exists in your body and is also a kind of space in the interlayer of reality."

"This is the result of our joint efforts. To be honest, before I met you, I never thought I could achieve such a deep collaboration with Reality Benders."

"After all, I originally thought you guys were all mindless lunatics, and I never expected there would be a lunatic with a brain like you."

She smiled as she said this:
"Now that the Bureau of Anomalies has been successfully built, it means we are still friends. At least we shouldn't have broken up before this project is completed."

Upon hearing this, Marx and Engels seized the opportunity to ask:

"Although it might seem a bit strange to suddenly say something like this, I feel I still have to tell you..."

"Let me put it this way, you may be dead now. I only got this news when I arrived in the new world created by Heaven. They not only declared you dead, but it also seems that you were once my wife."

How do you feel about this statement?

Xiao Ti was taken aback when she heard this, but she didn't show the same rejection as last time.

She just smiled and shook her head:

"This must be some kind of lie fabricated by Heaven. It's probably because they don't want you to find me again. And I must say, this lie isn't very clever, because we could never be that kind of relationship."

"You and I are just friends."
