"The director's office was once invaded by an insider. Although the insider died in a very suspicious way, he at least managed to transfer the diary."

"Unbelievable. I know that the traitor died in the director's office at that time." Xu Sinuo was a little confused:

"If he stole the diary... then how did he get it out?"

"This is also a question that has been discussed until now." Li Fei shook her head helplessly.

"What about Zero? As the world's top artificial intelligence, its eyes are all over the world, not to mention this building that holds its body parts."

"Due to an unknown command, the entire operating system of the tenth floor was put into hibernation at that time."

"No, I mean..."

Xu Sinuo thought about it.

"Is everything okay beyond the tenth floor?"

"No. Qi Er San O Shi Jiu Qi Shan Si"

"That means the systems in other parts of the building were still functioning normally at the time, which means the insider would be discovered if he transferred the diary out. In any case, some clues would be left behind."

"I know what you mean." Li Fei sighed, "It's a pity that we didn't find any missing parts. Even though we all know that the thieves who broke into the director's office belonged to a gang, the diary seemed to have disappeared out of thin air. We used Zero to search the entire tenth floor, but we couldn't find the hidden diary."

"So you want to ask me about the contents of my diary?" Xu Sinuo guessed her purpose.

"Of course I'm curious and want to ask, but this is not the reason why I came." Li Fei admitted without any concealment.

"What is it?"

"Let's talk about the diary first to satisfy my curiosity. I also want to know what kind of diary would make Director An and his brother pay so much attention to it."

"The diary records how I overate." Xu Sinuo answered hesitantly.

“Are there any specific steps?”

"No." Xu Si denied, "The diary entry about gluttony only mentioned this term several times, and claimed that this behavior was closely related to Devouring Wu."

"So you just summarized the behavior of overeating, right? It's unbelievable that you just deduced how to overeat. This forbidden technique is a top secret of the SS in FACA."

Li Fei's eyes were filled with surprise that was difficult to conceal. It was hard for her to believe that the seemingly young girl in front of her could actually complete the binge eating on her own, without any guidance or learning from outsiders, and she continued to do so for two years.

Xu Sinuo didn't expect Li Fei to stare at him as if he were a rare animal. He hesitated and said:

"This, this is not difficult. The content mentioned in the diary is actually easy to associate with a certain anime work. Section Chief, have you watched anime?"

"I've seen it, I've been playing house with alien species recently." Li Fei suddenly became excited.

"I'm also following that recently. I'm talking about Seraph of the End. I found that the description of the gluttony process is very similar to the vampire arming in this anime."

"I haven't seen it, can you tell me about it?"

"In this anime, vampires use special weapons. The holder can activate the blood-sucking structure on the weapon handle by saying 'suck blood'. Just like gluttony, they sacrifice their own flesh and blood to the devouring weapon, which strengthens the physical fitness of the weapon holder several times."

Li Fei pondered for a long time:

"So you have figured out how to gluttony, but... have you never thought about the consequences of doing so? You are not a vampire in fiction. Sacrificing flesh and blood is like squeezing out your own life. You should have discovered why gluttony is called a forbidden technique."

"Well, after absorbing blood, the Devouring Weapon will give back some of its power to the holder. This comes from the material used to make the Devouring Weapon, the Devouring Sorrow."

Xu Sinuo paused for a moment. She was thinking about how to continue. Regarding the gluttony of Shiwu, this was a question worth pondering.

"I once read a paper that said that the Devouring Sorrow, as the second heart of the alien species, is not only the source of power, but also the soul that carries its memories. At first, it was not obvious when I was binge eating, but after a while, I began to hear some auditory hallucinations. They were very unfamiliar voices, but they also felt familiar and warm. It was a very contradictory feeling."

"Yes." Li Fei said, "Gluttony is actually equivalent to awakening the heart deep inside Devour Wu, and in the process of communication, it will continuously give you strength. This is like an equivalent exchange, and the medium is the blood of the holder. Countless executives have reversed desperate situations in this way, but they will also make themselves fall into irreversible madness."

"An Ran told me." Xu Sinuo looked down at the Devouring Martial Arts bracelet on his wrist.

Li Fei also glanced at it and sighed:

"Many people think this is an equal exchange, but it is not. The strange voice in your heart actually comes from the Devouring Sorrow. The awakened demon will constantly tempt you to continue to overdraw your life. This is a forbidden fruit. Once you start, there is no room to stop. The reason why there is an indescribable sense of familiarity when you are overeating is because the power you get comes from the return of your own flesh and blood sacrifice."

Li Fei came close to Xu Sinuo and looked at him deeply for a long time.

"This also means that the demon has tried to take over your body. The power that Gluttony gains depends on the Devouring Sorrow. If the alien species was stronger in life, then Devouring Buri's Devouring Sorrow will bring more power, but it will also speed up the assimilation process."

"Assimilation." Xu Sinuo murmured the word.

She suddenly understood the purpose of Li Fei's description of all this, and also fully realized the impact of binge eating.

"The frequency of the strange voice in your mind indicates the severity of the assimilation process. When your mind is full of chaotic voices, it's not far from your body being occupied."

Li Fei kept her eyes on the top of Xu Sinuo's head while speaking.

Xu Sinuo felt a little creepy, it was really strange. For some reason, she felt that she was looking at Li Fei, but Li Fei's eyes were clearly looking upwards.

She looked around to shake off the thought, but accidentally saw a mirror.

In the mirror, a white-haired woman who was also holding a cup looked at herself.

It was a face that looked very similar to his own, with a sarcastic smile.

Chapter 169: After the Gray Mist (Part )

early morning.

An Ran woke up in a familiar room. Her chaotic mumblings had subsided. She smelled the fragrance left on the bed, which was still warm.

here it is……

An Ran assessed the surroundings and was so confused that she almost didn't recognize that this was her own room. The curtains that should have been tightly drawn were drawn open, allowing the dazzling sunlight to come in.

Thinking about the time she spent with her sister last night, she was not sure whether she should wake up in her room. She got out of bed, put on her shoes, and stretched.

"Of course it has to be better. It's better not to be an apartment building. It has to be close to the Countermeasures Bureau. Do you understand? It has to be close. The closer the better..."

An Ran heard her sister talking in the living room and realized that she couldn't walk up to her in this state, so she took two steps back.

She glanced down and saw that she was still wearing the same white dress, and took it off neatly.

The body melted like a candle, and quickly condensed into the outline of a man.

He took his clothes from the hanger and put them on before walking out with peace of mind.

"Can it be done in two days? Do I need to emphasize this matter again and again?" An Xiao sat on the sofa with his legs crossed, talking on the phone in a depressed mood.

"Yes! Count this day in!"

She spoke loudly to the other end of the phone, and when she looked up, she saw her brother walking towards her casually.

An Xiao was startled and hung up the phone.

She seemed a little nervous:

"Brother, are you home?"

"There's no need to ask back. Am I not standing in front of you?" An Ran looked at her mobile phone and took a look at it.

"I thought I was the only one at home." An Xiao hesitated, "Brother, when did you come back?"

"Yesterday afternoon, I came back and went straight to sleep."

"I heard that you went to Zilan City to carry out some secret operation. Section Chief Zhou told me. What was it?" An Xiao stood up, looking curious.

"Since it's a secret operation, there's no need to tell anyone." An Ran smiled bitterly.

"Tell me."

"To defeat a super alien." He casually made up the content of the action, and there was at least a hint of truth in it.

The centipede man who came out and took away Song Yixue at the end was indeed a super alien.

"Another super alien." An Xiao muttered to himself.

Just then, the sound of the yard gate opening was heard outside, accompanied by the sound of wheels sliding.

An Ran looked up at the wall clock.

8:00.

The waiter who always arrives on time day after day.

Due to the special time difference at the Countermeasures Bureau headquarters, his sister usually gets home from get off work at three in the morning, and he himself would stay out until late.

Therefore, the siblings almost never got up early at this time. Only the younger sister An Xiao, who had a normal schedule, could enjoy the breakfast provided by the waiter.

The waiter who served meals to the An family residence was a young man who had the key to the gate of the compound and was the manager of the nearest hotel.

The doorbell rang soon and An Ran opened the door.

The young man who met me was dressed in a neat waiter's outfit, which was the signature attire of the An family waiters, with a black and white contrast, and a pair of white-gloved hands pushing the food cart.

The waiter smiled and nodded.

"Good morning, Mr. An, Miss An."

"Yeah." Zero

An Ran also nodded in response, but there was no extra emotion on her face, as cold as a piece of ice.

He never showed any emotion in front of his waiter. This was a habit he had maintained for many years, and he didn't even know why.

After signaling the man to leave, An Ran sat on the sofa.

I opened the lid of the dining car and glanced at the cake inside, thinking: V

"Although I seldom eat breakfast, it doesn't mean I have never eaten it. I remember that the breakfast they provided was reasonably nutritious. How could there be cake?" I

After saying this, he noticed his sister's nervousness and opened another lid.

That's the KFC family bucket meal.

An Ran's face darkened.

"I, I think I can explain." An Xiao said hurriedly.

"Then I'm really curious about how you would explain it." An Ran frowned and looked at his sister.

Before An Xiao spoke, he continued:

"You're admitting your guilt, aren't you? The first thing that comes to my mind is that there's something wrong with the waiter, not you. Sister, you shouldn't be so nervous."

An Xiao lowered his head and said nothing.

An Ran opened all the lids. The food cart was full of rich, high-calorie food, most of which was fried. He couldn't help but sigh.

"How long?"

"Ah?" An Xiao answered softly, not quite hearing it clearly.

"How long have you been eating?"

"Three days."

"Eat less in the future. It's best not to eat this kind of high-fat, high-calorie food in the morning." An Ran thought for a moment and said, "Eat less at noon and in the evening, too."

An Xiao opened his eyes wide: "You don't object to me eating?"

"You can try it moderately. I don't want my sister to gain weight without restraint." An Ran put one foot on the dining wheel and played with the flower petal pendant.

"Oh, right." He seemed to have thought of something.

An Xiao was now biting into the cake while pouring milk into her mouth. She had become accustomed to her brother's abrupt mumbling.

"What did you just talk about on the phone?" An Ran showed appropriate curiosity.

"Rent a house. I want to live outside."

"If you find it inconvenient to travel, I can arrange a special car and driver for you, just like when you go to school." An Ran said.

Although he is not the heir to the An Group like his sister, he still has the right to have a private car and a driver.

What's more, he is now the largest shareholder of Sally Club.

When his sister just started studying at Atlanta College, he had provided An Xiao with a Maybach car and a driver to take her to and from school conveniently.

As the third daughter of the largest group, An Xiao did not seem to be satisfied with this identity. After a year of being picked up by a special car, she cancelled it.

The reason is that it is too ostentatious.

Therefore, An Ran once looked at the fleet of cars and dozens of waiters he had arranged for his sister, and wondered if he had done something wrong.

As for being too ostentatious...

To be honest, among all the wealthy children, the An siblings are the most low-key.

They seldom attend banquets held by the upper class circles of District 3. They do not have the airs of young ladies or noblemen at all. They spend all day in the Countermeasures Bureau and keep company with Swallow Wu.

So when her sister entered Atlanta College, An Ran had the sudden idea to prepare a fleet of cars and many waiters to support her, just to create the aura of a super young lady.
