Collapse Iron: I just transmigrated! You want me to save the Black Tower?!

The black swan emitted a sharp, explosive cry!

This scene is so terrifying!!!

[Black Swan: Help! Help! Help! Help! My heart! My heart is stopping! When did he find me there?!]

[Dahlia: So, his sweeping operation just now, clearing out all the memory thieves, was to clear the way for you? So you could come out and chat with him in peace?]

[Black Swan: ...I don't want to chat right now, I just want to go home.]

[Fireworks: Hahahaha! Look at Lady Black Swan's face! Did you see her face? Doesn't it look like a crumpled piece of white paper? So white and wrinkled! So pitiful.]

[Silver Wolf: Can't you have a little sympathy? They were almost scared to death.]

[Firework: I have such a compassionate heart! I'm just comforting her! Look, she's still alive, how lucky! If Jiang Jiu hadn't held back, she'd be joining her colleagues on the ground by now!]

[Hanabi: But our savior is really—playful! He clearly noticed it on the first trip, right? But he pretended not to notice and then suddenly came back for a surprise attack!]

Black Swan: ......

[Yao Guang: Don't worry, Lord Jiang Jiu isn't the type to kill innocent people indiscriminately. Given Black Swan's reputation, nothing will happen. Besides, it seems he only contacted you this time for the sake of the shadow...]

Yao Guang's words came to an abrupt end.

[Fireworks: Oh, little peacocks of the Fairy Boat~ You should worry more about yourselves.]

[Fireworks: Why do you think the Black Swan was taken away to recreate the footage? It's so hard to guess, isn't it?]

[Yaoguang:......]

She deserved to say that.

In the scene, the black swan is panting heavily, looking at Jiang Jiu with a terrified expression.

"Lord Shi... Lord Shi Jin... I don't think I've offended you, have I?"

Jiang Jiu released his grip on the Black Swan's wrist, looked at the woman in front of him who was panting heavily and had a look of terror on her face, blinked, and was slightly surprised by her reaction.

"Offended me?" he repeated, thought for a moment, and shook his head. "No."

[Hanabi: Wow~ What an innocent tone~]

[Hanabi: If I hadn't watched the whole thing and heard that tone, I would have thought he was just an ordinary person who had wandered in here by mistake~]

Black Swan: "..."

She looked down at her wrist, which was still aching from the rough treatment, and then looked up at the broken mirrors and her colleagues lying all over the floor. Her lips trembled slightly.

"Then, then these..."

"Oh, them?" Jiang Jiu glanced at them casually and shrugged. "Just cleaning them up while I was at it."

"Just... cleaning up?"

"Mm." Jiang Jiu nodded. "I'm used to doing this in every timeline."

Is this correct?

This... could it be some kind of unique interest of a genius...?

"Your Excellency..." She tried her best to maintain the composure expected of a registrar, but the last syllable of her voice still trembled unavoidably. "What brings you here?"

"Don't be nervous," Jiang Jiu said. "I just want to ask you for a favor."

Silver Wolf: Don't be nervous, I won't kill you.

[Black Swan: I'm incredibly grateful that I held firm to my principles.]

In the video, Jiang Jiu says that he only wants to recall a part of his memories, and it's not something particularly difficult.

The black swan attempted to argue its case.

The black swan's argument failed.

The black swan received a lot of praise.

Oh no, the black swan has been overpraised.

[Dahlia: I'm truly amazed that you dared to negotiate with him under these circumstances.]

[Dahlia: A notorious (and ruthless) ruler of annihilation, aren't you afraid that once you lose your value, you'll be strangled on the spot? After all... rules are rigid, and so are you.]

[Black Swan: In a life-or-death situation, how much time do you have to think?]

[Dahlia: At least more than you, darling... "Fellow inmate"~]

[Fireworks: Oh~]

[Star: Oh?]

[Topa: What are you talking about? What do you mean by the infamous Great Lord of Annihilation? He is clearly our most respected Honorary Supervisor and Commander of Wisdom.]

[Jade: Yes, if you continue to slander our supervisor without cause, the company will send you a lawyer's letter.]

[Dahlia: I guess I wasn't a good person to begin with?]

[Black Swan: ...So you knew?]

In short, and finally...

Ms. Black Swan was still very politely "invited" to the Black Tower Space Station.

Jiang Jiu led Black Swan into the Black Tower's laboratory. Black Swan hesitated at the door and didn't dare to move.

"Come in and sit down." Jiang Jiu gestured with his chin towards her. "Why are you standing?"

"...Thank you, sir."

The black swan cautiously entered and sat down on the edge of the sofa, its back ramrod straight, looking as if it were ready to flee at any moment.

Jiang Jiu glanced at her but didn't say anything.

The next moment, a door appeared out of thin air in the middle of the laboratory, and the Black Tower stepped out of the door.

She turned around, her purple eyes lingering on Jiang Jiu for a moment before sweeping over the black swan sitting upright beside him.

Her gaze held no hostility, but Black Swan inexplicably felt a chill run down her spine.

"Is this the Memory Receiver you captured?" Black Tower asked with a hint of curiosity.

"They invited him back," Jiang Jiu corrected. "It was 'invited'."

"Oh." Black Tower nodded. "The kind of invitation where you emptied half of her Memory Court while doing so?"

Hei Ta walked over and stood in front of Jiang Jiu.

"You brought another girl home on your first outing, Jiang Jiu, don't you have anything to say about that?"

[Black Swan: ...? I didn't do this willingly....]

[Star: There's juicy gossip!]

[Fireworks: Are these two no longer hiding their relationship from others? Wow~ Lady Black Tower is jealous~]

[Fireworks: Does Jiang Jiu, that blockhead, even know how to coax people?]

Silver Wolf: I don't know, I'm not interested, that's all.

Silver Wolf: Tch.

[March 7th: Wow... Is Lady Black Tower openly jealous? There are other people around!]

[Black Swan: Actually, I don't have to be human either...]

Hei Ta lowered his head, slowly unwrapped the box of chocolates Jiang Jiu had brought as an apology, picked up a chocolate with his slender fingers, and put it in his mouth.

The entire laboratory was silent for two seconds.

Then Black Tower frowned.

“It’s a little sweet,” she said.

Jiang Jiu was taken aback: "Sweet? Sai Feier said she prepared it according to your taste... Is it too sweet? Next time I'll have her—"

"Would you like to try some?"

Black Tower interrupted him, raised his eyes, and looked down at his face.

Jiang Jiu was stunned again.

He instinctively wanted to say that he couldn't taste anything, but before he could say it, Black Tower had already stood on tiptoe.

A hand gently grasped his collar and pulled him down a little.

Then, she kissed him.

【star:!!!】

[Star: No, no, no!!! This shouldn't be! You should deliberately distance yourselves, deliberately be indifferent, bow your heads and hurriedly brush past each other when you meet, not daring to exchange even a few words of greeting, hiding your joy deep inside, not daring to reveal it, suppressing your feelings so tightly that you dare not approach, fidgeting and timid, never daring to express your love, and finally, year after year, gazing at each other from afar, eventually drifting further and further apart, never to meet again in this lifetime.]

March 7th: ?

Himeko: ?

[Kafka: ...?]

March 7th: Never mind, snap snap—

[Aista: ...Lady Black Tower is a beauty that could rival the most beautiful women in the world! Lady Black Tower is exceptionally intelligent! Lady Black Tower is unparalleled in the world!]

Black Swan: Who will care whether I live or die...?

[Black Swan: Help! I feel like I'm about to be silenced. How can I survive after seeing this?]

[Black Swan: Seeking advice online...]

[Dahlia: You should really start thinking about how to become a strategy guide~]

[Topa: These two...]

[Topa: Both times it was Lady Black Tower who took the initiative! Savior, get ready!]

[Fireworks: Xiao Chunan is about to be played to death~ Poor thing~ Falling into the hands of a genius thousands of years old, his life is over~]

The black swan took a deep breath and began to hypnotize itself.

[Black Swan: Oh well... to see this before I die, it's worth it...]

[Black Swan: My foot!]
