What are you talking about?
"Mom isn't that kind of person!"
After defending her mother, May buried her head in Yotsuba's arms and fled like an ostrich.
Finally, Ichika raised her hand and coughed lightly, displaying the authority of the eldest sister: "Let's leave it at that. This is not something we should interfere with. Besides, Mom has done her best to raise us all these years. If Mom can find her own happiness, we shouldn't stand in her way, right? But before that... it really is necessary to make contact with Mr. Gu Jing. As the eldest sister, I'll take care of this!"
That being said, how could Nino, Miku, Yotsuba, and Itsuki possibly let Ichika risk her life alone? Besides, there's truth to the saying that no one knows a daughter better than her mother. The quintuplets had just decided to advance and retreat together when Rena returned to the living room.
As a mature adult, Ms. Lingnai was not in a hurry to contact Gu Jing. Instead, she planned to observe him for a while through the live broadcast. Despite her objections, the quintuplets listened to their mother and canceled the plan.
But I managed to get the right to watch the live stream with her, though I think I'll pass on tonight's live stream.
After all... even she felt furious when she saw it!
We can't let our daughter be led astray!
*******
The next day at noon, when Gu Jing brought A2 and 2B to the living room, the increasingly diligent Yasakani-sama had already prepared lunch, and Hanako was already busy at the coffee shop downstairs, while Yotsuya Miko and Sakurajima Mai both had to go to school.
As a coffee shop, it seems to lack a certain charm without music, and with a slight thought, sound equipment and other similar devices have appeared in the shop.
The first song that appeared randomly was "囍" (double happiness), which surprised Gu, who started the live stream. However, Yingmei and others who heard the song for the first time did not notice anything unusual. Moreover, the sound of the suona (a traditional Chinese wind instrument) was quite unsettling. But as they listened, Hu Taotao and others who were more familiar with the calendar noticed something was wrong.
[Hu Tao: Although the 18th day of the first lunar month is an auspicious day, isn't it not a suitable day for weddings? I remember it's usually used for funerals.]
[Fu Xuan: That's right, the customs of the Immortal Boat are the same, so if I'm not mistaken, this song should be depicting a scene of a ghost marriage...]
[Yun Jin: No wonder the sound of this suona initially seems to express joy, but upon closer listening, it also seems to be telling a story of sorrow...]
Gu Jing: That's exactly what it means, but there are two versions of the story. At first glance, it seems that Wang Ergou raped the woman, and the woman, unable to bear the humiliation, committed suicide with a three-foot-long white silk ribbon. The affectionate husband eventually decided to hold a ghost marriage to marry his lover, and Wang Ergou, feeling guilty, came to her grave in the end and ate himself as an offering.
But what's truly chilling is the line, "In the hall, he spoke from the bottom of his heart; how can he be carefree if he doesn't keep his promise?" In other words, after completing the shocking wedding ceremony with the dead, the scumbag confessed to the coffin that the ceremony was just a formality, a way to find psychological relief. Then, looking back, it becomes clear that Wang Ergou is innocent; otherwise, how could he have raped a woman without any consequences?
The real story is that this woman was love-struck and started a relationship with someone else before she was even married. She didn't care about the gossip in the village and believed in her choice, waiting for this relationship to come to fruition. However, she gave her heart to the wrong man, who only arranged a ghost marriage for her after she died and said these words in front of her funeral. That's why she was both crying and laughing, which means she had lost her composure.
Wang Ergou was likely just a sycophant who dared not express his feelings, but in the end, only Wang Ergou brought her offerings.
This—Yingmei and the others were so shocked that they couldn't help but widen their eyes and lean back tactically. This was a development they had never expected!
However, when it comes to scumbags, Liang Bing, the five-star commentator in the live stream, couldn't help but chime in: "You've had one woman after another, you're no better!" Gu Jing retorted confidently: "Strictly speaking, 'scumbag' or 'scumbag' both refer to human scum who betray others' hearts. But I'm sincere to every wife I have. It's just that my heart is shattered into many pieces, each piece bearing the name of a different girl. If I had to call it that, it's universal love; I just wanted to give them a home!"
Such words made people watching the screen chuckle. After lunch, Mr. Gu said: "Nothing to do today, I'll stay home and listen to music."
Then, on the sofa in the living room on the second floor, he cuddled A2 and 2B, listening with great interest to the music coming from downstairs.
Of course, this is just a joke. When he really needs a break, he can send a message in the private chat channel, and his dear wives will coyly agree on the scene and costumes with him, and then open a room in the game room to play until they are completely exhausted. Moreover, no matter how long they play in the game, only a second will pass in real life, and it will not interfere with each other's business at all.
Relatively speaking, the afternoons from Monday to Friday, which are only about 6 hours long, may seem like work, but in reality, they are giving the brothers a break!
However, this was also a tacit understanding that he had gradually developed with Yingmei and others. People who were unaware of this but wanted to get to know him, such as Shiho Miyano, felt that it was necessary for her to visit him at this time.
*******
"Alas, how many years of romance have passed in the blink of an eye."
"Lightly tread upon the white horse."
"Seeking mountains and seas to compose poems..."
When Shiho Miyano arrived at the coffee shop, the song "Human Beings" was playing in her ears, its melodious rhythm relaxing her mind.
But perhaps it was intuition, but upon entering the coffee shop, she felt several gazes upon her, and following those gazes, she could see several women with very good looks and figures. Remembering that she had appeared on camera yesterday, Shiho Miyano felt that these unfamiliar women must all have copies of the diary, and... they were probably here to get to know Gu Jing.
Although she didn't quite understand why these women hadn't taken action, Shiho Miyano didn't have so many concerns:
"A latte without sugar."
"And please inform your boss for me as well."
"I told you... Shiho Miyano wanted to meet him."
She said these words while ordering, and when the man looked at her, Shiho Miyano even took out a copy of her diary.
Upon seeing the copy of the diary, Hachiko immediately smiled sweetly and nodded at her. After all... this was the future mistress!
Watching her departing figure, Shiho Miyano discreetly observed the reactions of the women. Their eyes met; some smiled and nodded at her, some remained expressionless, and some turned their heads away. Taking in their reactions, Shiho Miyano had some guesses, but she didn't dwell on them, focusing instead on the live stream—
In the live stream, Gu, who was in the living room on the second floor, had A2 and 2B lie on the table one after the other. Using the exoskeleton armor technology of the "Honkai Impact 3rd" world and combined with Soul Steel, he completely upgraded the two's mechs.
The result of the modifications is that the two characters' appearances have become more refined in detail, their internal structures are closer to those of humans, and their individual strength is comparable to that of the Sam mech. Their actual combat capabilities still need to be tested.
However, something even more unexpected happened—Gu Jing came up with yet another solution to the problem of the [malicious detection device] failing to detect anything strange: data backup. By using the ley lines to back up the data of the entire world, the ley lines could issue an alert immediately if anything was missing or added!
[Gu Jing: In the beginning, the operation of the earth's veins might be quite troublesome, such as in cases of natural death. However, after operating for a period of time, we can manually identify these special cases, and it will be much smoother when we encounter similar situations in the future.]
[Xingbao: Wow! When it comes to solving problems, Jing-ge is the only one who can do it! *winks and smiles*]
[Silver Wolf: It's really rare. This guy is always going "biu~biu~biu~", how come his brain hasn't gone bad? (Pondering.jpg)]
[Black Tower: That's why it's called Sage Mode, isn't it? (doge.jpg)]
[Alicia: If that's the case, wouldn't we also deserve some credit? (Evil grin from the fairy.jpg)]
[Yae no Miko: Pfft~ Looks like we'll have to keep trying!]
【Kaguya Houraisan: Let's encourage each other!】
[Alice: You know what! Seeing Jing's method gave me some ideas too (okay)! Actually, we can add a trigger-based formation on top of this, mainly for trapping enemies. Once an anomaly is detected, the formation activates automatically, fixing the anomaly within the formation, making subsequent retrieval much easier. If we think the formation consumes too much energy, we can also use these anomalies as the formation's energy core!]
[Hu Tao: Hmm...Ms. Alice's idea sounds familiar.]
[Yingmei: In the "Teyvat Travel Guide," Lady Iris mentions the labor experiment in Dadaupa Valley. It's said that building a giant, rotating spherical cage in the depression at the center of the valley and imprisoning all the surrounding Hilichurls could generate enough momentum to power Mondstadt for at least five years—impressive!]
[March 7th: That's not so bad on its own, but the terrifying thing about Ms. Iris is that she sends elderly and exhausted Hilichurls to the mill to be turned into fodder and then fed to young and strong Hilichurls in a never-ending cycle!]
[Alice: ??? What's so scary about it? Everyone knows monsters don't feel pain!]
[Ruri Gokou: This is truly...even capitalists would weep! *covers face and cries with laughter.jpg*]
[Liang Bing: Hahaha, please don't call me the Demon King anymore. Ever since I joined this livestream, I often feel like I don't deserve the title!]
[Gu Jing: However, the logic is sound—unequal oppression is unreasonable, and rules always protect those who are willing to abide by them. However, as you can see, every world has some nascent dawns and some fading sunsets. Rather than wasting resources by housing them at the station, it's not bad to make use of them.]
Everyone: "¨〃 ..." 6! (Laughing and crying emoji)
The phrase "the first light of dawn, the lingering warmth of the sun" doesn't immediately seem like an insult, but upon closer inspection, it's actually quite poetic.
PS: The image shows a zero-naïve stem.
Chapter 409 Silver Wolf: Speaking of One Piece, I'm reminded of a joke—
As they were chatting, a tall, imposing man dressed as a shop assistant entered the live stream. From her, they learned that Shiho Miyano wanted to meet him.
With A2, who was feeding him fruit, in his arms and 2B massaging his shoulders behind him, Gu asked with a smile, "Is she in a hurry?"
"Well..."
"She didn't say..."
Under his gaze, Ba Chi responded truthfully, "Fine, I have something to do downstairs anyway, I'll just say hello to her."
As he descended the stairs, Gu looked around with a playful expression. Aside from the strangers, there were several people who seemed familiar to him: Machida Sonoko, Akane Akasaka, Ai Hayasaka, Reiko Akiba, and Shiho Miyano.
When their eyes met, Machida Sonoko tilted her head slightly, smiled, and waved at him. Akane Akasaka didn't react. Reiko Akiba smiled and nodded at him. Ai Hayasaka seemed a little guilty. Shiho Miyano nodded faintly.
Seeing this, Gu Jing smiled and greeted them via private chat, but did not go up to them, instead continuing downstairs.
[Kasumigaoka Utaha: Yue~ Sonoko-san is such an old lady, yet she's still acting cute towards Kei-kun! I have every reason to suspect she's trying to seduce a younger man! Doge.jpg]
[Yano: Was Hayasaka Ai sent by Kaguya Shinomiya to scout out the 'enemy's situation? She's quite decisive, isn't she? (laughs)]
[Eden: Speaking of which, Ms. Reiko Akiba seems to also enjoy classical music. If possible, I'd like to exchange some interests with her.]
[Gu Jing: @Eden, if there's a chance, I just had a private chat with her, and she also wants to have a conversation with you, this outstanding female musician from another world.]
Eden: That's wonderful.
[Eri: Does Akane Kousaka also have a copy of her diary? @Gu Jing?]
[Gu Jing: No, although at the end of the story, her move to snatch Shiyu and Eriri away from Aki Tomoya was very satisfying, in essence, you were just being exploited in a different environment.]
Kasumigaoka Utaha was both amused and exasperated: It really is...
Eriri's cheeks flushed slightly: "What do you mean by 'amazing'? Stop saying such weird things, Gu Jing!"
[White Night Demon: Speaking of exploitation, I suddenly have a bold idea. From my observation, almost all the heroines in your everyday world have a special skill!]
So here's the question—if we have Mai Sakurajima act in movies, Kasumigaoka write novels, Mashiro Shiina illustrate, and Eri Kashiwagi and Eromanga Writers draw doujinshi, can we unify the ACG world? [Winking emoji]
[Liang930Bing: Hey~ You're a genius for thinking of that!]
[Ruri Gokou: But I'm afraid that's not enough, because the ACG industry also includes games, anime, and music, and there's a shortage of talent.]
[Spain: No problem, Bronya can handle these things!]
Kiana: But actually, it's supposed to be given to Heavy Bunny, right?
[Spanish: What's the difference?]
[Tesla: I've had experience with messy hair too!]
[Einstein: Ah, after all, research requires funding...]
******
Seeing that these two research giants had also been forced to work due to insufficient research funding, Shiho Miyano couldn't help but twitch her lips as she drank her coffee.
In the live stream, just like a scene from "Resident Evil," Gu Jing, along with A2 and 2B, rode a rail train under a coffee shop. After about five minutes, they entered the organization's Hive site. Here, people could see researchers in white coats working, and fully armed YoRHa troops guarding various locations.
When Gu Jing arrived at the command platform, the scene on the live broadcast changed. It was a frontal view of a planet, showing that almost the entire planet was covered in seawater, but reddish-brown soil circled the planet's north and south poles.
[March 7th: Huh! Is this the world of One Piece?]
[Paimon: I hadn't noticed until you pointed it out! But what is Jing planning to do?]
[Gu Jing: Well... didn't Nami ask me to help her deal with the Arlong Pirates? I've thought about it carefully. The problems in the One Piece world aren't just about one pirate crew. The Celestial Dragons, the Marines, pirates, the resistance, and civilians—there are problems from top to bottom. So, if we really want to deal with this, it's better to deal with the whole world together.]
Silver Wolf: Speaking of One Piece, I'm reminded of a joke—in the future, facing a barrage of reporters' cameras, Wang Luffy laughs heartily as he delivers his acceptance speech:
"To become the Pirate King, I must first thank my godfather, Shanks. He could scare the Sea Kings to tears with just one look!"
"But to strengthen my dream of becoming the Pirate King!"
"Shanks, one of the Four Emperors of the Sea, would rather lose an arm than let me set sail!"
