Bengtie: My death fueled their madness.

Seeing Heita's reaction, Qi Zhimu didn't know what to say, and his arms, which he wanted to hold, hesitated to come down.

"Hold me tight," Black Tower urged.

Qi Zhimu did as he was told, and the warm, soft body was in his arms.

But neither of them had any interest, and even though they understood each other, they felt a little lost and struggling at this moment.

Everyone has selfishness, and geniuses are no exception.

To gain something, you must inevitably lose something; the Black Tower knows the price of fate's gifts.

No matter how much she wanted to possess him, she understood that some things were difficult to change, or even impossible to change.

If it's distressing to deal with Yelena, who has no real connection to us, then what about the two or three others whose identities are still unknown?

Who can say for sure that Qi Zhimu won't meet them again?

Qi Zhimu naturally understood what Hei Ta was thinking.

But he hadn't done anything wrong and felt he had a clear conscience.

No one is at fault, therefore, no one needs to apologize.

Love without restraint is merely possession.

Since you love him, you are willing to give up some of your possessiveness for him.

However, Black Tower felt he needed time to adjust.

"I promised you, Zhimu..."

"I promised you too, Little Tower."

That's what love is like; it can be both generous and selfish.

"So you have to accommodate what I'm about to do!" Black Tower changed the subject.

"What?"

"snort……"

Feeling a sharp pain in his neck, Qi Zhimu couldn't help but gasp. A moment later, a noticeable mark appeared.

……

Qi Zhimu put away his memories.

Himeko: "Kurota, my curiosity has shifted from Chimu to you now. How did you two get together?"

Black Tower hadn't really thought about how to answer similar questions.

Qi Zhimu went through reincarnation and was reborn as a human.

Although there are star gods and the great power of destiny in this universe, it is not easy to explain reincarnation by associating it with any of the existing star gods.

There used to be, the Immortal Star God.

He left behind descendants after his death, but the problem is that Qi Zhimu is not an immortal descendant.

"I lost my memory for some complicated reasons, and forgot about the Black Tower and the bonds I once had."

Seeing Heita's predicament, Qi Zhimu naturally offered an explanation.

"If we're talking about when we got together, it goes back a long time. Now that we're rekindling those memories, the correct way to put it is: we're restoring our old relationship."

"I see." Sensing the hidden meaning, Himeko went along with it.

One answer is enough; pressing for an answer is too offensive.

Black Tower suddenly spoke up: "Zhi Mu is now a patrolling knight-errant. He has his own life. Getting off the train doesn't mean we won't have any contact in the future."

The words were easy to understand, but Himeko didn't immediately grasp their implied meaning.

Black Tower casually took out a mirror and placed it in an area of ​​the carriage that did not obstruct people's movement.

"Your exploration of bounded areas allows for teleportation under certain circumstances, and I, this genius, naturally possess similar wonders."

"As long as it doesn't exceed the effective distance, Zhimu can use it to travel between the train and the space station."

"Your anonymous users can also use it, but the seven systems can only be used once a day, and maintaining its jump function is quite troublesome..."

What followed was something Himeko couldn't understand, involving operating principles, related academic topics, and so on...

Qi Zhimu's face showed surprise; he hadn't expected Black Tower to be so considerate of him.

Seeing what Qi Zhimu was thinking, Hei Ta curled up the corners of his mouth, a hint of tolerance flashing in his eyes.

"When I am engrossed in certain academic projects, I often stay busy for ten or twenty days at a time."

"You have a long life ahead of you, and you're not at the age where you can retire and enjoy your old age. Parting ways occasionally can help maintain and strengthen your relationship."

"The train never stops its journey. For you, being a passenger here occasionally is better than staying in the space station or on the blue planet all the time."

"Some birds are destined to belong in the sky, not locked in a cage. As long as the birds don't forget the way home, that's enough."

Qi Zhimu was stunned, a warm feeling rising in his heart.

Himeko was not only stunned, but also frozen in place, feeling a sense of absurdity, as if she had seen a ghost.

Could such an understanding, gentle, and considerate girl be associated with the self-willed, arrogant, and flamboyant genius Black Tower?

Can the magic of love be so strong that it can turn a person into a complete stranger?

"Himeko, what do you think?" Black Tower asked.

"Don't ask me, it depends on Zhi Mu's own thoughts."

"Your words are enough; they mean you allow me to leave it on the train." Black Tower pointed to the mirror. "As for Zhi Mu, I know him."

Himeko realized that this was what she meant and couldn't help but smile.

It must be admitted that the previous stereotypes about the Black Tower were too strong.

How serious is it? She didn't even ask me, the navigator, before taking the mirror out and leaving it there, and I didn't even realize there was anything wrong with it.

For someone like Black Tower, this behavior is as natural as changing shoes when he gets home.

"Then, you are always welcome to join me on the train for a journey, Chimu." Himeko smiled.

"Whenever you can't stay idle, you'll naturally come to bother me," Qi Zhimu said politely.

The atmosphere was just right, so Himeko invited them to the party carriage for a drink.

Unfortunately, Black Tower had only been seated for two minutes when Estella sent a notification that Genius Club #76 Screw Goom had arrived at the space station.

In response, Black Tower used two separate functions: remotely controlling the puppets located in the office of the space station.

A play is about to begin.

……

Half a system time later, inside the space station.

Xing transforms into a warm-hearted citizen; anyone with an exclamation mark above their head becomes her target.

Currently, they are helping a clerk named Leonard investigate invaders outside the Legion, with clues pointing directly to the Star Core Hunter Silver Wolf.

After a series of investigations, it was discovered that the intrusion route ultimately led to the Black Tower's office, with the target being a strange artifact called the Punk Lord Spirit.

After much deliberation, Xing decided to tell Black Tower the bad news.

Unexpectedly, upon arriving at his office, they found Screw Gum arguing with the Black Tower Doll about something.

Black Tower: "I'll say it one last time, I don't care what Ruan Mei whispered in your ear this time. Shutting down the simulated universe? No way!"

Screw Gum: "Black Tower, this is my decision. Question: What have we contributed to this project?"

"Countless hours, the resources of an entire planet, and the most advanced technology in the entire universe."

"What did we get? The unknown, doubts, and a series of error messages."

"Initially, we defined the simulated universe with the hope of creating a miniature world where we could glimpse the movements of the celestial beings."

"But now, it is getting further and further away from that goal."

Black Tower: "A simulated universe needs errors, that's what you said yourself. The current situation perfectly matches it, so why are you dissatisfied?"

Screw Gumm: "I appreciate the flow of knowledge, but I don't agree that a simulated universe is just a contract on a to-do list forever."

"Black Tower, think about how many surprises this project gave you? And then think about how many disappointments it gave you?"

Black Tower retorted: "The simulated universe has never disappointed me; what disappoints me is you... Screw."

"You think you're so great? You're just like a... a member of a club of idiots."
