It's time to improve the strength of the infinite world

Chapter 157 Both parties reached a consensus
The sun sets in the west.

The afterglow of the setting sun dyed the sunset sky red.

As evening approached, the school bell rang throughout the campus. Soon, students walked out of the gate of the County North High School in twos and threes, talking and laughing, with their shadows stretching long across the slope.

However, not all students choose to leave the campus immediately after school.

After all, the compulsory leaving school time has not arrived yet, and many clubs can carry out activities during this time, whether it is baseball, basketball, table tennis, or tea ceremony, calligraphy, or literature club. After all, teenagers who are in adolescence always have to find something to do to kill time.

Most of the students who have no plans for club activities and are in a hurry to go home are the type who have few friends and do not participate much in clubs.

Of course, there are also students whose family conditions are relatively difficult and who are financially tight, who choose to work part-time after school to earn some pocket money or supplement their family expenses.

There are exceptions to this.

That is the designated observation object of the Information Integration Thought Body. When school is over, he picks up his schoolbag and rushes out of the classroom. However, he does not rush home, but runs to participate in all the club activities in the school...

She obviously hadn't joined any club, so this behavior was very strange...

Even the people on Earth are confused, let alone aliens who are not organic life forms...

Fortunately, the designated task only requires "observing" the behavior of the target object, and does not require understanding the logic behind its behavior, so it is not a very difficult task.

The only bad thing was that because she had to keep "observing", Nagato Yuki could only follow her target out of the school gate after he or she had finished participating in club activities and actually left the campus. At this time, it was almost dark.

By the time she arrived at the agreed meeting place, night had already fallen.

In late spring in April, the temperature is neither too cold nor too hot, and the evening breeze blows gently on your face.

The earth seemed to be asleep and the world was so quiet.

Near the park in front of Gwangyangen Station.

In a high-end apartment for sale.

The elevator slowly went up to the seventh floor, then stopped steadily, and then slowly opened to both sides.

A slender girl in a high school uniform, with fair skin and a pretty face, walked out of the elevator with a blank expression. Then, a young man also walked out of the elevator, keeping a certain distance, and followed her in the corridor.

The former's steps moved with mechanical precision, and the distance of each step seemed to have been measured with a ruler.

The latter's steps and posture appear more natural...

The weird thing was that every step he took coincided with the footsteps of the girl in front of him, so that even though they seemed to be walking separately, only the sound of one footstep could be heard in the corridor.

If one only listened to the voice, everyone would probably think that it was only Nagato Yuki who came back.

After a while.

The footsteps in the corridor disappeared.

Nagato Yuki stood in front of Room 708, opened the tightly closed door, then turned around and said calmly: "Please come in——"

The tone was very flat, without any emotion at all. There was neither the sincerity and enthusiasm of inviting others to one's home, nor the uneasiness and nervousness that a girl living alone would have when bringing a man home at night. There was only mechanical calmness and indifference.

"Thank you."

Xia Zhi was also very calm. He nodded, said something, and then walked in without any courtesy.

Yuki Nagato watched this scene calmly, her glasses seemed to reflect the light under the corridor light, but the eyes behind the lenses were still as calm and composed as a still and unperturbed calm.

She followed him in and closed the door.

Hearing the sound coming from behind, Xia Zhi didn't look back, but took off his shoes naturally and walked in.

The interior space is spacious and bright. It can be seen that it has a design of three bedrooms, two living rooms and one bathroom. It is also close to Gwangyangen Station and adjacent to the park. The price is estimated to be not a small amount... However, apart from the fact that the Japanese real estate bubble collapsed in 1991, the housing price would not be a problem for aliens.

It’s great that even aliens can afford to buy houses…

I guess for the locals, there is even less pressure...

Congratulations, congratulations.

Xia Zhi quickly looked around. Although the house was spacious, it did not have the feel or warmth of someone living there, or rather the air of a worldly person. Apart from a warm quilt table in the living room that he had just passed, there was nothing else.

There were no curtains, and the ten-tatami-sized wooden floor was not carpeted, revealing the brown wood grain.

Very neat and simple.

very clean.

But under the bright lights, the spacious house seemed even more empty, as if no one had ever lived there.

This was obviously incorrect, because Yuki Nagato was the resident of Room 708... Xia Zhi looked back and saw the girl whose facial expressions changed by only a few millimeters. She was bringing out hot tea and snacks from the kitchen and walking to the table to put them down.

Perhaps she really couldn't be considered to be "living" in this room...

Apart from the necessary disguise, this house should be the girl's "wait time".

"Please take a seat."

Nagato Yuki asked, "Would you like some snacks?"

"You can try..." Xia Zhi calmly took a piece of dessert, took a bite, and said with a smile: "How about it, did you find anything today?"

"The subject didn't interact with anyone today, but she went to the Craft Club after school and participated in club activities. She sewed a pillowcase with the members of the Craft Club. It can be seen that she is not very interested in it. She will probably give up tomorrow..."

Nagato Yuki replied without blinking.

"Sewing pillowcases..." Xia Zhi frowned, trying to think about it seriously, and then felt that maybe he didn't need to take it so seriously.

Although he had accepted the fact that the "powerful one" was just a freshman in high school and didn't even know her own abilities, he still felt a subtle sense of disobedience when he heard about the schedule, and felt that something was not right.

Shaking his head, he looked at the girl sitting upright opposite him and said, "Is this your usual "observation"? Has it always been like this?"

After a brief conversation in the morning, he and the forces behind Nagato Yuki both expressed a certain willingness to cooperate with each other. However, as the main person in charge, Nagato Yuki also had the task of observation. In addition, the matter was of great importance, so it was not easy for him to make a rash decision...

Therefore, both parties showed their sincerity and exchanged a small amount of valuable information. They also agreed to meet again in the evening to make a decision.

It was through the exchange of information in the morning that he learned some general information about the situation.

Just three years ago, the alien forces behind Nagato Yuki discovered that the surface of the Earth had abnormal information bright spots that were different from those of other humans. The information sparks ejected from a certain area of the Arch Islands instantly covered the entire planet and spread to the space outside the planet.

And the center point is a little girl named Haruhi Suzumiya.

That unusual information explosion had a considerable impact on the current structure and future history of the planet.

The most important thing is that the alien forces behind Nagato Yuki judged that Suzumiya Haruhi might have the possibility of self-evolution and even the ability to manipulate the surrounding information environment. This is the reason why Nagato Yuki appeared. She was created and put on this planet to observe Suzumiya Haruhi up close.

In addition, it seems that local forces that have been affected, such as people from the future and people with super powers, have also realized the source of the influence and have begun to pay attention to it.

What should I say...

This is really lively.

"The Information Integration Thought Body attaches great importance to you and has already considered your suggestions. Although the information I can express in words is very limited and I cannot fully convey the Information Integration Thought Body's thoughts to you, one thing is clear: we both hope to cooperate..."

Nagato Yuki said calmly: "The only question at the moment is whether you can fully represent the "people from another world"?"

“That’s… no problem…”

Xia Zhi hesitated for a moment, then nodded affirmatively: "At least in this world, I can fully represent the position of the "people from another world."

He was not surprised by this, and he probably understood that this must be the information integration thought body that noticed something.

After all, according to Yuki Nagato, this kind of highly intelligent information life form without a body has evolved to a very advanced level. They were originally born in the form of information, and then various information combined with each other to produce consciousness, and finally evolved by capturing other information.

They were born almost at the same time as the universe, and expanded with the expansion of the universe, and their relative information network also gradually became wider and larger.

In the vast ocean of information such as the Milky Way and even the entire universe, there are such life forms. However, they have no entity and can only exist in the form of information. It is almost impossible to observe them directly, so humans know nothing about them.

The information integration thought entity behind Yuki Nagato is one of them, and it is the existence that governs this galaxy.

For now——

This is indeed the most powerful existence that Xia Zhi can recognize, and its main evolutionary direction is the specialization in "information operation" and "information connection". Under such circumstances, it seems normal to be able to detect some abnormalities in him.

He is just a clone, not the real person.

The information integration thought body may have noticed this, so it did not judge him as an individual who accidentally traveled to this world, but regarded him as a representative of another camp. Because he was not alone, but was able to maintain contact with the alien universe behind him...

"That's good... In principle, we won't interfere with each other's actions, but there is only one consensus that needs to be maintained—"

Yuki Nagato had an indifferent expression and placed her hands on her knees.

"The consciousness of the Information Integration Thought Body mostly believes that if Suzumiya Haruhi realizes the value and ability of her existence, unpredictable danger will definitely occur, so she does not want you to rashly break this situation."

Most people think...

most……?
Xia Zhi keenly grasped the key point, but he didn't say anything, just nodded and said:
"I can't guarantee that, but for now, I'm inclined to keep a low profile and not provoke Miss Suzumiya..."

"I understand..." Nagato Yuki didn't care about his reservations. She just moved her eyes slightly and looked him up and down. "I can help you enter the school properly, but your appearance still needs to be adjusted, otherwise it may cause trouble..."

"Adjustment..."

The magician thought about it for a moment.

That's true. Although he still looks like a teenager, it would still feel a bit awkward for him to enter high school properly. He has to at least adjust to the age of sixteen or seventeen.

only--

"By the way, can I just apply to be a teacher?"

He stretched out a slender index finger, scratched his cheek, and asked seriously.

at the same time.

Also in this high-end apartment building, Room 505 on the fifth floor.

A girl with waist-length, neat blue hair, wearing a blue and white long-sleeved sailor suit, looked like she had just returned home from school. She raised her head from her sitting position, and a glimmer flashed in her clear eyes.

The information transfer was completed quickly.

She received intelligence updates from the information integration thought entity.

"…It seems that they have discovered the "people from another world" who appeared in the current space-time continuum due to Suzumiya Haruhi's call…"

"...Preliminary judgment is that the other party is also a humanoid interface. The nature is suspected to be an unknown super-high-level cosmic life form, which has created a humanoid contact device for contacting organic life forms..."

"…I have already accepted the neutral faction's proposal and plan to observe Haruhi Suzumiya in a low-key manner…"

After sorting out the updated intelligence, the beautiful girl with the princess hairstyle frowned slightly: "Are you still going to choose to continue observing? Obviously, there will be no changes if you continue like this."

As a representative of the radical faction, she was secretly dissatisfied with this.

After thinking carefully for a while, she suddenly sat up again, resumed her quiet and elegant posture, and continued to enter the standby mode, just whispering to herself: "Yes, next I will try to contact people from another world..."

The information-integrated thought body is also divided into different consciousness factions.

The current mainstream neutral faction, which tends to observe Haruhi Suzumiya but not intervene in her decision, has caused dissatisfaction among the radicals because of the lack of results.

Now, the radicals realize that an extraordinary opportunity has arrived, that is -

People from another world.

Because they judged Xia Zhi's clone to be similar to the organic terminal they created, the information integration thought body also judged Xia Zhi's "superior" to be an extremely powerful existence... Just like Xia Zhi's thinking, they also believed that they had encountered an unknown super-high-level cosmic life form.

On this point, the two sides have currently reached a consensus.
