A Single Person's Infinite Wonderful Life

Li Wei watched as Kirishima Sakura staggered into the bathroom like a zombie, mechanically brushing her teeth and washing her face. He thought to himself, "Human biological clocks are so amazing. Even though I expended a lot of energy the day before yesterday, I still got up on time the next day."

Soufflé walked in and, together with Li Wei, watched Kirishima Sakura move mechanically like a zombie. Under Li Wei's surprised gaze, Soufflé took out her phone, turned on the camera function, and said, "Oh, right, Kirishima Sakura."

Seeing Li Wei's strange expression, Soufflé put her index finger to her lips and made a "shh" gesture.

The soufflé now gives Li Wei the feeling of a mother secretly filming her own child. Many young parents have this habit of filming their children's silly antics and then watching these videos, which are enough to make their children die of embarrassment, when they have nothing to do.

Some parents with a more twisted sense of humor might even show these videos at their child's coming-of-age ceremony, but this is usually done by foreign parents.

Soufflé whispered, "This Sakura, who's a bit slow to react, is much cuter than usual. She was definitely more well-behaved when she was little. Now, I can hardly control her anymore."

Li Wei asked, "Is her personality different now than it was before?"

Soufflé held the phone quite steadily, which showed that she had considerable experience in doing this kind of thing.

Soufflé whispered, "She used to be a rather reserved girl, like a fragile little animal. She was full of curiosity about everything, but she was also afraid of being hurt by the outside world, so she was always hesitant."

Soufflé sighed inwardly as she recalled her past. She had done many wrong things, things she couldn't forgive herself for. During her most self-loathing period, it was Kirishima Sakura who saved her. Being the perpetrator had overwhelmed her psychological defenses, and she had even considered suicide as an act of atonement. But when Kirishima Sakura, as the victim, forgave her, she was forcibly pulled back from the brink of despair.

No one wants to die, and Soufflé was no exception. The hope of life, and Kirishima Sakura's forgiveness, gave her the courage to live. Therefore, she, as the original perpetrator, and Kirishima Sakura, as the original victim, established a bond between them.

At that time, Kirishima Sakura was not yet able to take care of herself. After all, with such a weakened body, she would definitely not survive without someone taking care of her. Soufflé took on the responsibility of guardianship and began her atonement through practical actions.

Kirishima Sakura has now recovered her health and has a career she loves, which makes her very happy. Although this still cannot atone for her sins, at least she has the dignity to hold her head high.

Soufflé said, "This child almost died because of me, it's so good that she survived."

"So you just keep taking videos and photos of her like this?" Li Wei turned his head to look at Soufflé, who had a gentle smile on her face. The warmth on Soufflé's face when she looked at the images on her phone screen was genuine.

“Yes, this is both a record of her and a record of me,” Soufflé said with a smile.

Chapter 4. Human Experimentation

“I’ve heard Charlotte talk about you, about the research institute of Vilit, which resulted in the deaths of more than ten test subjects. It’s a dark chapter in Valslan’s history,” Levi said.

Every country or power has a dark history, after all, no one can guarantee that the path they take is absolutely correct. However, this part of their dark history is also related to Judar.

Judar himself lacked scientific research capabilities, so he had to rely on the abilities of his researchers. The female researcher, Vilit, possessed extraordinary talent and abilities, demonstrating top-tier skills in research related to Hundred Armor Crystals and barbarians. In order to exploit Vilit, Judar deceived her feelings and used her emotions to manipulate her talent.

At that time, the human research department within Valsland was led by Vilit. Charlotte and Soufflé were both technicians under Vilit. However, Charlotte was responsible for analyzing external experimental data and only knew bits and pieces about human experiments, while Soufflé was an informant for human experiments. It can be said that the deaths of those dozen or so test subjects were indirectly related to her.

It was precisely because of this that Soufflé suffered a mental breakdown, and the intense guilt brought her to the brink of suicide.

Ultimately, however, the blame lies with Judal. Judal had previously commissioned Vilit to research artificial warriors because Lisa Harvey, the third daughter of the Harvey family, had accidentally succeeded in creating an artificial warrior unit for some reason and gained immense power as a result. This led Judal to have the outlandish idea of ​​creating an artificial warrior unit, which resulted in his manipulation of Vilit.

Now that Judar has become Li Wei's alter ego, the mess he left behind will ultimately have to be cleaned up by Li Wei, except that Li Wei himself won't show up. The possibility of Judar messing things up has been reduced to the lowest possible level.

Soufflé said, "It's said that this research department was operating behind the backs of higher-ups. After Vilit's affair was exposed, that human experimentation department was shut down. But it's a good thing that such a place that disregards human life was shut down."

Li Wei said, "I learned from Charlotte that Sakura was the only survivor of that batch of test subjects. The mortality rate of human experiments at the research institute was over 90%. None of the test subjects from the previous batches survived."

Soufflé said, "That was a nightmare. It's a memory I've been trying to forget, but I can't."

Li Wei said, "That's because you still have a conscience, which is why you feel sad about this. But you're doing well now. The mistakes of the past are in the past, and you have the right to choose your new life."

Soufflé smiled bitterly, "I'm just deceiving myself now. Although those children didn't die directly at my hands, their deaths were all related to me. I've shamelessly survived because I'm afraid of dying."

Li Wei said, "It takes courage to die temporarily, but to live requires real courage. You've done enough; there's no need to keep criticizing yourself. After all, neither you nor Charlotte were used; the real culprit is someone else."

The true culprit, Judal, has become a puppet of Levi. Judal's soul has been annihilated. While this may not be the best punishment for the ambitious Primarch Judal, it at least serves as a punishment.

Soufflé smiled and said, "Thank you for your comfort. I feel much better now. I've never had the chance to tell anyone else these things. I'm already very grateful to have someone to listen to me. It seems you know quite a bit about what happened back then."

Li Wei nodded and said, "Although I haven't been with Valslan for very long, as a member of the entire company, I know everything, whether it's classified information or sensitive intelligence. I know more about Valslan's dark history than you do."

Soufflé looked at Levi and said, "Have those in charge of the experiment received the punishment they deserve?"

Li Wei said, "They've all fallen from grace, not just the person in charge of the experiment, but also the people who were behind the project. I've dealt with them all. This kind of despicable plan is an insult to what I'm doing, and I won't allow such trash to remain in Valslan."

Upon hearing Li Wei's words, Soufflé smiled brightly. She rarely smiled because the past events had brought her immense psychological pressure and mental exhaustion, which, in a way, was also a form of self-punishment.

Now that she knows that all those people from back then have received their due punishment, her inner conflict has been resolved.

Li Wei said, "The current Valslan is not what it used to be. What we need to do now is a serious and important undertaking, one that is forward-looking, to enable humanity to truly leave Earth and begin the great voyage of space. There is no future in engaging in those messy human experiments and disregarding human life."

Soufflé said, "So that's why you're trying to get rid of the aliens lurking on Earth?"

Li Wei laughed and said, "That's right. There's an old saying in Chongguo: 'How can one allow others to sleep soundly beside one's bed?' Although those aliens arrived on Earth millions of years ago, and their history is even longer than that of humans, Earth belongs to humans, and there's no room for them to take root. Now that we've dealt with them, the next step is to launch the lunar campaign, completely resolve the barbarian problem, and turn the moon into a bridgehead for humanity's great space exploration."

Li Wei's tone grew more and more enthusiastic, and his confident expression infected the soufflé.

Soufflé felt that what Li Wei was doing was great, and she wanted to help him, but her expertise couldn't help him, which made her feel a little regretful.

Chapter 4. Returning to the Little Garden

The two continued to observe Kirishima Sakura without making a sound. After finishing washing up in the bathroom, Kirishima Sakura staggered out, as if she hadn't seen Li Wei and Soufflé, and walked straight to the large bed, where she lay down flat on her stomach.

Seeing this, both Levi and Soufflé showed expressions of surprise.

Seeing that Kirishima Sakura had fallen into a deep sleep again, Soufflé said, "Leave this to me."

Li Wei nodded and went to the other room. The hotel's luxury suite was like a small apartment, with a master bedroom, a secondary bedroom, and a study. Li Wei rested in the secondary bedroom.

Kirishima Sakura's break was a perfect opportunity for Li Wei to slack off. With his senses activated and paper cranes scattered throughout the sky, no potential danger could escape his detection. So, he took out his laptop again, ready to begin his Pandora's box adventure.

After embarking on the path of Qi cultivators, Li Wei also mastered various magical techniques. So, using immortal methods, he reforged his old companion of several years using weapon-refining techniques. Although it still looked old on the outside, its inside had been completely transformed. Now, this old companion was a magical artifact disguised as a laptop.

The modified version of the magic weapon has all the functions a computer should have, and its performance has reached the level of a supercomputer. When the finished product was completed, Li Wei himself was very surprised. With a wave of his hand, he actually transformed his old laptop into a purple-grade item.

If Li Wei were to hand this computer over to an ordinary person, that person would instantly turn their life around, just like the male protagonist in those urban novels, and begin their own journey to defy fate.

However, Li Weike didn't have the habit of acting as a grandfather to others. This kind of tool that could be used directly for scientific research was just a simple gaming laptop in his hands. He only used this magical device to play games and draw pictures, and most of the time he didn't need its other functions.

After Kirishima Sakura woke up in the afternoon, the three of them strolled around the area, enjoyed the local delicacies, and admired the sea view. As night fell, they boarded a large helicopter dispatched by Kohana and returned to Kohana.

Li Wei and Kirishima Sakura didn't need a private jet, but Soufflé and the other staff weren't like the two of them. So, Kureya arranged a large transport helicopter to take all ten-plus staff members away.

After a flight of more than ten minutes, the helicopter landed in the designated area of ​​the take-off and landing zone. Most of the pedestrians on the helicopter showed curious expressions.

Apart from Li Wei, everyone else was boarding such a behemoth as the Little Garden for the first time. This steel island, which is dozens of times larger than a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier, has been hailed by netizens from various countries as a miracle of human engineering.

Kureya, along with Erica and Lydie, waited not far from the helicopter landing site. They only approached after the helicopter's rotors had completely stopped.

After watching the pedestrians disembark, Kuraya smiled at Souffle and said, "It's been a long time. I'm relieved to see you're doing well."

Soufflé gave Kureya a hug, and after letting go, she smiled and said, "This is all thanks to your help. During the most difficult time in Sakura's and my lives, your support allowed us to survive."

Kureya said, "That's what Valslan owes you, and this is the only way I can make it up to you. However, this compensation cannot undo the mistakes Valslan has made."

Soufflé and Kirishima Sakura faced financial difficulties at the time. Because she had to take care of Kirishima Sakura, who was almost paralyzed, Soufflé couldn't find suitable work. When Kureya learned of this, she not only provided financial support to the two of them but also arranged for a maid to take care of their lives, allowing Soufflé to go out and work with peace of mind.

It was thanks to Kuraya's help that Soufflé was able to get through the most difficult time after leaving Valslan. Soufflé felt that both she and Kirishima Sakura owed Kuraya a favor, while Kuraya felt that she was just atoning for her sins.

Kureya said, "It's windy at sea, so please come with me. I've prepared accommodations for you, and I hope you'll be satisfied."

Soufflé replied politely, "As long as there's a place to stay, that's fine."

Following Kureya, the pedestrians arrived at the residential area in large mobility vehicles. The environment there amazed the staff accompanying Kirishima Sakura. Seeing the staff's reactions, Kureya felt satisfied. After all, she was the captain of this ship, and it was something to be happy about when her ship was praised by others.

As night fell, after Kureya arranged for everyone to stay, she left with Li Wei.

Back at Li Wei's apartment, Kureya pounced on him on the bed and straddled his waist.

"Sure enough, in such a short time, Li Wei, you've already flirted with a new girl!" Kureya said with her hands on Li Wei's chest, dissatisfied.

Li Wei removed his mask and laughed, "What are you saying? You're like this since you came back."

Kureya said jealously, "I saw it. Soufflé and Kirishima Sakura were looking at you strangely. That kind of look isn't how you look at someone you've only known for a few days!"

Li Wei said, "This works?"

Kureya said, "I don't care! You have to comfort me!"

“Alright, alright, it’s your decision. Whatever you want to do, I’ll approve. How about that?” Li Wei said with a smile.

Li Wei knew that when girls were being temperamental, there was no reasoning with them; you could only coax them. However, there weren't many girls who could enjoy this treatment, and he was only this gentle with his partner.

"I want to eat something delicious, you make it for me!" Kureya pouted and turned her face slightly away.

“Okay,” Li Wei said.

Chapter 1. Vilit's Black Pot

On the very first day after Kirishima Sakura and the others boarded the ship, the school festival in the small garden began. The annual school festival was a carnival for the students and a rare day off for the staff.

The small garden operates on a fixed shift system, so the staff's workload is not too heavy. After all, there are plenty of spare staff, and many positions operate on a three-shift system. Except for a few sensitive core positions, most staff members have ample rest time.

Levi, Claire, Lydie, and Erica walked down the street, enjoying the festive atmosphere. Because of the school festival, even the various shops on the street were offering discounts, some of which were incredibly deep.

Li Wei said, "The whole ship is yours, is this kind of shopping fun?"

As the eldest daughter of the Harvey family, a family so wealthy it could rival a nation, Kureya had never lacked anything since childhood. While others could casually browse the streets, she could buy up the entire street's worth of land without any problem.

Kureya laughed and said, "For girls, shopping isn't the goal, it's the browsing! The enjoyment comes from the process. Whether or not you end up buying anything is unimportant."

Kureya's mindset is something that girls in the real world can't understand. However, everyone's thoughts are influenced by their family environment and their own conditions. For Kureya, who has everything she needs, what she enjoys is the surprise of discovering new things while shopping, rather than simply wanting to own a certain item.

Kureya said to Lydie and Erica behind her, "If you come across anything you want, just tell me. It's on me today!"

Kureya's hand flipped through her fingers a silver card. This card was a privilege card used within Valslan, granting the holder the highest level of treatment in Valslan's shops and service departments.

Fewer than thirty people in the world possess such a card, and Li Wei also has one of these silver cards.

Letty said, "I don't want anything."

Erica shook her head as well. As Kureya's right and left hands, she and Lydie already received the highest level of treatment. In addition, she was a very self-disciplined person who restrained her material desires, so there was nothing she wanted.

Kureya sighed. Lydie and Erica were usually very loyal to her and had helped her a lot. It could be said that the reason she was able to manage the ship and not be deceived by the people below was because of their efforts.
