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

Chapter 169 No way!

After getting used to focusing on the vastness and length of astronomical levels...

As a thought entity that integrates the information of the entire galaxy, it naturally has no shortage of sufficient time and patience.

But they also have to face a helpless fact, that is, even if they have no shortage of time, the object of observation, Haruhi Suzumiya, may not have that much time, or even a very short one.

Because no matter how you look at it, after excluding the possibility of autonomous evolution, there is nothing special about Suzumiya Haruhi in other aspects. She is no different from other carbon-based creatures on the planet Earth. From genes to spirit, she is just a mortal who will soon perish.

——How many years can it last?

——Even if we take a full calculation, it would only take a few decades...

Moreover, her precious possibility may not necessarily accompany her throughout her life. At present, it is more likely to be a kind of adolescent syndrome. This naturally makes her "shelf life" more demanding and shorter in a sense...

This also creates ideological differences such as opinions and tendencies within the information integration thought body.

Although most opinions among these clusters of information life forms tend to be "safe", "peaceful" and "conservative", there are other opinions as well.

After all, according to the current principle of non-intervention, if we continue in this way, we may not observe any valuable phenomena. Instead, we may inevitably lose this precious opportunity as time goes by. And who can guarantee that there will be another opportunity?

Therefore, there will naturally be different opinions, believing that in order to change the current inaction strategy, not only should we actively intervene, but we should also actively give Suzumiya Haruhi certain external stimulation——

So that her mental state, which had been tending to be stable, could become active again...

In this way, perhaps we can observe some special information...

"…This is what our faction is asking for. I think it's completely reasonable, and we're not the only ones who think this way. The reformists also advocate directly provoking Haruhi Suzumiya, but they're not as determined as we are, and they don't intend to take the initiative, so we're labeled the radicals."

Asakura Ryoko spoke with extreme seriousness, explaining the faction she represented.

As for how many processed ingredients there are, only God knows.

"I see. So the reformists also have such ideas?"

Xia Zhi thought about it for a moment. Strictly speaking, this was a good bargaining chip. It meant that the radicals were not without potential allies. If the situation deteriorated to a certain extent, and even caused a split and civil war within the information integration body, they would not be isolated and helpless.

Even if we can't win, we shouldn't lose too quickly.

At least... can we maintain a stalemate for a while, right?

Well, this is a very important criterion for judgment. After all, Xia Zhi so decisively chose to abandon Nagato Yuki, with whom he had already established a relationship, and instead prepared to throw himself into the arms of Asakura Ryoko. Of course, it was not because the former had short hair and the latter had long straight hair. It was not that superficial.

However, although the neutral faction in the information integration thought body is judged to be not in line with its own interests and is not a suitable alliance partner...

However, it cannot change an objective fact.

That is, in this world, apart from the guy named Haruhi Suzumiya whose background is unknown, that kind of cosmic-level information life form is the strongest existence on the surface.

At the moment, Xia Zhi really has no possibility of competing with the opponent, so he can only use the opponent's force against him and use magic to defeat magic... Seizing the differences of opinion within those information life forms and playing both sides is undoubtedly the best choice, which is always more realistic than taking all the pressure on himself.

"Of course, and not just the progressives. There are also the compromisists who want to find a balance, the conservatives who advocate hiding their existence, and so on."

Asakura Ryoko raised a slender index finger and shook it, saying with a bright smile.

"Although each party has different demands, it does not mean that the neutral party is the absolute mainstream. It is just that in the past, this group of people had the most ideas... But now it is different, and the opinions leaning towards us are increasing."

"I was originally just Nagato-san's backup system, assisting her in positioning operations, but now my authority has been upgraded and I am her equal. I'm sure you understand the significance of this change."

The beautiful blue-haired girl revealed this information while looking at his reaction with a smile.

In fact, she was already prepared to come clean about this last night, but she was shocked by the strange information and almost lost her computer on the spot. She subconsciously chose to run away.

But now she has re-prepared herself mentally, and has convinced herself that she cannot let the function of the emotional module affect her rational judgment. This kind of emotional simulation of organic life is just to better disguise herself.

So this should be a help in completing your task, not a hindrance.

Taking a deep breath, Asakura Ryoko tried her best to suppress the strange feeling in her heart and not let herself show it. At the same time, she tried her best to make the expression on her face look brighter and more brilliant.

"I roughly understand..."

Xia Zhi nodded thoughtfully: "However, there is one more question I want to know."

"Please tell me."

"That is - you said you want to directly provoke Suzumiya Haruhi, so what do you want to do to provoke her?" The young man looked directly into the girl's eyes and asked this question.

After all, we still need to confirm the degree of radicalization...

Based on the results calculated based on comprehensive modeling of existing information, it is better to be conservative...

"Our plan is to expose the existence of people with superpowers or people from the future, and let Haruhi Suzumiya realize the extraordinary nature of this world. This will impact and subvert her cognition and common sense to a certain extent, and her mental and psychological state will also change accordingly."

Asakura Ryoko's smile was as beautiful as a flower, and her expression was still bright. Although the original plan was to kill Kyon directly and see what kind of changes would occur in Suzumiya Haruhi, she couldn't say that at this time.

"Or maybe we can actively create some uncommon events that are not so consistent with the laws of physics and science, such as calling UFOs, opening a door to another world, or a strange summoning ritual... Isn't she dreaming of encountering a surreal life? We can satisfy her in this regard."

"Catering to someone's needs? This is indeed a good method. Suzumiya-san seems to subconsciously want the world to become more lively--"

Xia Zhi blinked and made a simple comment.

But he was not too moved. It turned out that radicals were just like that. Even a dog would shake his head when he heard it. Isn't this a normal way of thinking? Even when he had a basic understanding of the situation, he thought about it this way at the first time. How could he be called a radical?

So it seems——

The Information Integration Thought Entity is, as a whole, a peace-loving creature.

He thought that after receiving instructions, Asakura Ryoko would at least decisively choose to kill Kyon, to see what special reaction she would have...

"…Is this some kind of world where I'm the only one hurt?"

Ah Xu pulled the corner of his mouth and couldn't help but complain out loud.

At the same time, he had an embarrassed expression on his face, as if he was completely powerless.

When he said this, he was standing in front of the lobby of the high-end apartment, hesitantly looking at the transponder and the digital keypad below, feeling guilty. Why was he standing here, and why was he doing this?

——Wouldn’t it be embarrassing if you dialed the wrong number?

——No, that can’t be said…

It should be said that even if I called the right number, it would still be very awkward. Although Asakura-san is indeed easy to talk to, I don’t usually talk to her at school…Now after school, I have to go to her house to find her rashly. This is not a good idea no matter how you look at it.

Just thinking about that scene, he felt that his toes were about to dig out a three-bedroom apartment on the ground. If there were no two girls standing behind him, he would never have participated in such a thing.

"hurry up!"

Suzumiya Haruhi urged from behind: "It's such a simple thing, why get hurt!"

"It's so easy to say, why don't you come in person..."

Ah Xu complained weakly. He stood in front of the luxury apartment, and reluctantly stretched out his finger on the transponder. He hesitated for a long time, and then reluctantly prepared to press it.

But at this moment, the door next to it made a "click" sound and slowly opened to both sides.

It seemed that a resident came out from inside.

Ah Xu's whole body suddenly froze.

only……

The slender figure that walked out of the open door looked familiar. Before he could react, he remained in that stiff state. Behind him, Suzumiya Haruhi exclaimed in surprise: "Nagato? Why are you here? You don't live here too?"

The person who walked out from the apartment door was Yuki Nagato.

She glanced at the few people calmly, nodded to Suzumiya Haruhi's question, and admitted calmly:
"Yes, I live here."

"Ah! That's such a coincidence!" Suzumiya Haruhi smiled. "Um, Asakura... I mean Asakura Ryoko, do you know her? Does she live here too?"

"Yes. She lives here too."

Nagato Yuki's answer still seemed a little indifferent, as if without any emotion.

"Ha! I told you, I just vaguely remember her saying that, but I forgot the exact house number..." Suzumiya Haruhi immediately raised her neck proudly and looked at Kyon and Asahina Mikuru, "See! I really didn't remember it wrong, right!"

"Yeah, yeah...if only you could remember it a little more clearly, I wouldn't have to try to contact each of your numbers just now..."

Ah Xu walked over weakly with dead eyes.

Suzumiya Haruhi ignored him and turned to look at Nagato Yuki with great interest: "Then do you know which floor Asakura lives on? Asahina said that there is something very important and we must meet her immediately..."

As she spoke, she unceremoniously pulled out the baby-faced, big-breasted beautiful girl who was dodging behind her and pushed her to the front.

"Woo——"

Asahina Mikuru let out a slight cry, but was unable to resist Suzumiya-san's actions. However, because of the natural fear in her heart, she still shrank back a little, trying to distance herself from Nagato Arikio in front of her, with a sad expression on her face.

"I, I...I have something to ask Asakura-san! It's very, very important!"

"..."

"..."

"Then I'll take you there."

Yuki Nagato looked at her without saying anything. There was no change in her eyes behind the lenses. She just spoke calmly and turned around.

She naturally knew that this future person had no other choice but to use the power of the object of observation to stop the process...

But this is not a problem. She now needs to temporarily use the power of Haruhi Suzumiya to crack the information blockade of Asakura Ryoko. Because she just stood in front of the door of Room 505 for a long time, she found that she could not crack the encrypted information and enter.

Even with the help from the information integration thought body, this means that Asakura Ryoko is also not lacking in off-site technical support from "above".

So in this case -

The neutral party's opinion also instructed her to make limited use of the special features of the object of observation.

With Yuki Nagato leading the way, it was not difficult to enter this high-end apartment. The access control, elevator, etc. were all open to them. The group walked into the elevator and watched Yuki Nagato press the button for the fifth floor on the control panel, and then the elevator rose steadily and slowly.

"Asakura-san lives on the fifth floor?"

"Yes." Nagato Yuki answered as if she would never have any emotion, "She is in room 505."

"505..." Suzumiya Haruhi nodded, "Then where do you live?"

"708."

"Then you guys live pretty close...ah, we're on the fifth floor." Suzumiya Haruhi said, and found that the elevator stopped and the doors slowly opened to both sides. She immediately called everyone to get ready to go out with full motivation, "Kyon is ready! And Asahina, come here quickly, hurry up--eh?"

The last syllable of the words -

The girl's voice became noticeably louder, taking on a mysterious tone.

After the elevator door was fully opened, she turned around and found a figure standing outside the elevator, who seemed to be preparing to come in.

"Hey, it's Suzumiya-san... Why are you here?"

Xia Zhi, who was about to go in, looked at the people inside and seemed a little surprised.

"You're the one who got here!" Suzumiya Haruhi's eyes widened, "Don't tell me you actually live here too?"

"Yeah, so what?" the young man replied with a smile, admitting it nonchalantly.

“Actually——!!”

The girl was completely surprised by the answer, and at the same time had a bad feeling: "You really live here too? Where do you live? Isn't it the sixth floor?"

"Of course not, I live on the seventh floor...Room 708." Xia Zhi answered sincerely.

"..."

"..."

There was dead silence in the elevator.

Kyon's eyes widened, and Asahina Mikuru had the same expression.

"You, you, you--" Suzumiya Haruhi's expression was extremely interesting. She pointed at the other person, her fingers trembling, and stared at him in disbelief: "What did you say? You live in 708?!"

"Yes, what's wrong? Is it not possible?" The young man tilted his head and asked in confusion.

"Nagato...is this true?" The girl hurriedly turned her head to look at Nagato.

"Yes."

"..."

"..."

"You...you bastard!" Suzumiya Haruhi felt her blood pressure soaring, and she felt unwell. She turned around and glared at the young man in front of her, gritting her teeth and stammering to express her anger: "You...you...you can't...you can't...do this...you can't!"
