I'm not Yingjie

"..."

The pupils under the helmet emitted a cold and cruel light.

"Why, sir, do you block my way?"

Alicia's smile can often give people pure warmth, but in Lin's opinion, it is just a disguise with ulterior motives, especially when she is playing pranks, which is particularly troublesome for Lin.

Was it because his attitude was not strong enough, or was it because this guy had some quirk? Ever since they first met, she always appeared inappropriately in various places.

When I went to the R&D department, Alysia commented that the weapons were not good-looking enough.

Going to the lab, Alicia was gossiping with the lab assistant.

Go and hand in the report. Alicia is the one who collects the reports.

All inexplicable encounters will turn into the opening line of "Hi, did you miss me?"

Even the gym that he regarded as a pure land was punched with a hole by the new director of the engineering department she found! When Lin was sprinting on the treadmill, he saw a pink-haired woman's head hanging from the ceiling, and his heart skipped a beat.

Since then, Lin has been working out in his room.

"Okay, I won't tease you anymore. Your reaction is really funny. Whenever I encounter a similar joking situation, you always look like you want to complain, but you have to hold it back for the sake of your image."

Alicia said teasingly.

Lin crossed his arms and stared coldly at the girl who made him feel uncomfortable: "Who are you?"

Alicia was shocked at first, and then looked at him sadly as if she wanted to squeeze out two tears.

"Oh, did you lose your memory after getting hit on the head during this mission? I'm your best friend, Alicia. Let me use my love to awaken your memory."

As he spoke, he tried to touch Lin's helmet, but Lin, whose eyelids were twitching, slapped him away.

Lin had no way to deal with Alicia. This woman would not respond to any threats or tricks unless she achieved her goal. She was a master of Tai Chi, and this was the type of person Lin could not deal with the most.

As long as Lin Yi asked: "What do you want to do?"

Alicia would smile as sweetly as a blooming lily: "I just want to see what you look like under your helmet. I guess you must be very cute."

See, she never tells him her real purpose and just makes up a reason to get close to him.

"If you are obsessed with looks, then I have a friend who is so handsome that he will make you crazy. As for me... I'm not that good-looking." Lin thought of Kevin, the optimistic handsome guy. He was called the prince of Qianyu Academy. Maybe he would get along well with Alicia.

But when he thought about it carefully, Kevin liked a lonely girl like Mei, so he was not surprised that Alicia was interested in him.

"But aren't there many novels that describe a person who usually hides his appearance, and then surprises everyone after taking off his disguise? If you think about it carefully, Lin might be planning to let everyone think that you are a tough guy who is integrated with the helmet, and then suddenly take off the helmet one day and shock the entire Fire Moth. Hehe, you are pretty bad~"

Alicia looked around with a sly look in her eyes, and after making sure that no one was around, she poked Lin's helmet with a grin and said, "But I'd love to be the first to witness it~"

Lin now feels very powerless. No matter what he says, this woman can always find a set of excuses to interpret his words. In the end, it is better to keep silent.

"After all, if a gun appears in the work, it will definitely be fired, and if a mask appears, it will definitely be taken off... Hey, wait for me, where are you going?"

Lin walked towards the R&D department without saying a word, followed by a noisy and eye-catching pink-haired girl.

After in-depth research on the abilities of the Second Herrscher, the R&D department created some new things and needed him to test their performance.

In the partial introduction sent by the head of the R&D department, one thing caught Lin's attention.

Phase shifting device.

Chapter 4 Accidents are common

"Compared to the First Ruler, which is easier to explain on a physical level, the Second Ruler's ability involves an abstract concept - time. Now, according to Dr. Einstein's recent research on the concept of space and time, time itself is also a property of space, so the Second Ruler's ability is also partially related to time..."

"But from the records and the research on the Herrscher core, it seems that the Second Herrscher does not have the ability to manipulate spatial dimensions at will. If it were really possible, it would be too terrifying..."

"However, the Second Herrscher's ability is not just about folding the surrounding three-dimensional space. It is a more extensive spatial control ability..."

The head of the R&D department chattered on and on about the research of the Second Herrscher by the Fire Moth to the people sitting on the chair. Although the words he used were not very profound and the academic vocabulary was mostly simple terms that could be understood, his passionate emotions and speaking speed made him sound like a mad scientist promoting another of his unreliable new products.

Lin's helmet was covered with the saliva of the R&D director. He sat there motionless. The uniform-colored equipment on his body made him look like a black ice sculpture. He couldn't see the inside of the helmet to show whether he was asleep or listening to the lecture in silence.

On the contrary, Alicia listened with great interest. She listened to the whole thing without missing a word and asked a few questions from time to time.

"In short, we currently have no way to replicate the Second Herrscher's ability to construct imaginary space, but with the help of the new director of the Engineering Department, we have used another method to achieve her spatial transfer, and the result is this phase transfer device."

The head of the R&D department held up a bracelet-like device in his hand and said, "It was originally called Imaginary Number Transfer Master No. 1, but we all agreed that the director of the Engineering Department's naming taste was too low, so we called it the Phase Transfer Device."

Alicia was obviously as excited as if she had seen the toy. She turned her head and wanted to say something to Lin, but found that Lin was still sitting in the chair, unmoved, with his head lowered, and the light in the azure viewing window dimmed.

Alicia came up to him curiously and opened her lips: "Lin? Are you asleep?"

"..."

Seeing that Lin didn't move, the action-oriented Alysia immediately stretched out her evil hand to the helmet interface on his neck and smiled evilly: "It seems that you are too tired from the mission. Take off the helmet and sleep."

The head of the R&D department was about to speak up to stop him: "Wait a minute, isn't he asleep..."

"Snapped."

A strong hand wearing a glove grasped the slender arm, and the azure window lit up again. Lin raised his head slightly and looked directly at the surprised Alicia. He said in a deep voice: "What are you going to do?"

Alicia tilted her head: "Aren't you asleep?"

Could this guy really be a robot that turns on automatically the moment someone tries to touch his helmet?

The head of the R&D department was somewhat amused by the interaction between the two: "Lin never sleeps in front of others. He is reading a novel."

"Reading novels?"

"Don't talk too much." Lin glared at the director of the R&D department, but through the helmet, the lethality was almost zero.

Lin's only entertainment is reading novels. He used to listen to music, but he himself has forgotten when he stopped filling his ears with soothing or passionate music.

Lin didn't dare to think about what Alicia, whose curiosity was aroused by the mere sight of a helmet, would do if she knew that his hobby was reading novels.

"Let's put the original explanation aside for now, how to use it."

Lin took the phase transfer device and after scanning, the information uploaded by the director of the R&D department automatically popped up on the window. He wore it on his left hand and then walked to the prepared trial site.

There was a half-meter-thick earth wall standing on the trial site, and he should be required to use phase transfer to pass through the wall.

The head of the R&D department watched him adjust the data on the device. The corners of his mouth gradually dropped. He hesitated and said, "This device has not been tested on living creatures yet. You may be in danger. If other substances get stuck in your body, it is very likely that you cannot be saved. Are you sure you want to try?"

"If you don't try, you'll never get any data." Lin's attitude towards the director of the R&D department was better than that of most people. At least he was an example of a researcher with a little more conscience among the Fire Moths. He took a deep breath and raised the device in front of him. "And if I don't experiment, someone else will... No, it's okay, let's get started."

The director of the R&D department did not hear the first half of his sentence, but Alicia was stunned for a moment after the almost inaudible sentence was uttered, staring at the person whose expression could not be seen.

"Flip the switch, and then everything depends on your on-the-spot reaction."

Everyone else retreated to a safe distance with their data recording tools. Lin turned to look at the director of the R&D department. After he nodded to Lin, Lin held his breath and pressed the switch.

"------"

There was a harsh friction sound in my ears.

The world before my eyes transformed into a dark grey space.

In the second before losing consciousness, Lin could no longer feel the existence of his body and was immediately swallowed up by the surging darkness.

……

"So... the reason you're looking for me so urgently is just because there was an accident with the experiment?"

After walking out of the operating room, Mebius wrote down a string of numbers on a notebook. Her face was as pale as water. She didn't even look at Lin, who was lying on the trolley in a horrible state, as if he was just an ordinary corpse.

"Fire Moth has countless experimental accidents in a year. Losing limbs or even life is normal. My research direction is different from your R&D department. What's the point of looking for me?"

The expression of the director of the R&D department was particularly ugly. He did not expect that the first live experiment would have such serious consequences for Lin. This could no longer be explained by a "mistake". It was simply the same as pushing Lin into the crematorium.

The phase shift device essentially allows the user to travel from real space to imaginary space and then back to real space to achieve the effect of teleportation, which is the same principle as the Second Herrscher's ability to return attacks.

However, they miscalculated the gap in transmission between humans and inanimate objects, which resulted in the flesh not being fully covered when returning to the real space, creating an effect similar to cutting.

Lin, who was lying unconscious on the cart, had his left leg below the thigh missing, and the cross-section was extremely smooth, which showed their mistake.

"He should have been prepared to die when he started an experiment that had never been conducted before, and the medical department should be asked to reattach his leg, not me." Mobius's gaze stayed on Lin's broken leg for a moment, then he turned around and pretended not to see it, intending to go back to the operating room.

"My dear Mebius, it must be easy for you to make an identical leg."

"..."

If we talk about the person that Mebius least wants to see in the laboratory, Alicia is definitely on the list. Whenever she shows up, nothing good will happen and the efficiency of the entire laboratory will drop by 80%.

This also includes the efficiency of Mebius himself.

When she opened her charming big eyes and looked at Mebius with tears in her eyes, Mebius' heart would skip a beat.

Alicia approached Mobius step by step, her tears did not seem fake, she kept muttering: "Mobius, my good Mobius, please."

"What does this have to do with you?" Mebius stepped back quickly, fearing that Alicia would really hug him, and asked unhappily.

"..."

Alicia's expression suddenly changed, becoming gloomy and cold, her eyes fixed on Mebius.

Mebius was a little caught off guard by the sudden change: "...What do you mean?"

Threat? Cold War?

"Tsk, I get it. Just leave him there. I'll ask Blanca to make a new leg for him later." Mebius frowned in annoyance at the cold gaze of Alicia, whom he had never seen before.

How did Alicia get to know this guy? They are not from the same team, are they?

After Mobius agreed, Alicia smiled and returned to her previous self: "That's great, what I learned from Lin is really useful. But I don't think this is too bad for friends. I'd better not do this in the future."

"..."

Mebius turned his neck stiffly and looked at Lin, who looked like a dead man.

Did you learn it from him?

Just give him a pair of Honkai beast legs.

Chapter 5 Series Book 1

"He's wearing that helmet again."

"I've never seen him take it off. Isn't there a bet on the Internet whether there's a Honkai beast or a robot under his helmet?"

"Well, I also bet a hundred bucks that he was a robot..."

The ceiling is not unfamiliar. I have seen it many times during physical examinations.

The trivial discussions around me were annoying. Perhaps the characteristic of Mebius's laboratory was to comment on others.

After Lin woke up, he felt weak all over. Every cell in his body felt out of balance. This was the feeling of disharmony that Lin's body was feeding back to his nerves, telling him that something was wrong with his body.

The most obvious part was his left leg. The feeling of disharmony ran all the way from the spine to the back of his head. A nauseous feeling rose to his throat and almost made him vomit into his helmet.

What happened? The memory is stuck at the moment before the switch was pressed.

"Hi~ How do you feel?" A soft voice that was so familiar that it almost caused Lin to have a stress reaction sounded in his ears. He turned his head suddenly -

The light fell on her shoulders, and the fair skin at the corners of her mouth was slightly raised, like an angel lowering his noble head.

Rather than blooming flowers, Lin would rather use the splashes of water falling into a pond to describe the smile he saw.

Lin was in a trance and saw Kevin smiling at him, and that feeling of pure friendship came over him.

"Huh? What's wrong with you? Are you fascinated by what you see?" Lin's rare dullness made Alicia feel very happy. Did this count as him admitting that she was a beautiful girl?

"No, I'm checking the records after I fell into a coma." Lin replied calmly.

"..." So Alicia was silent for a while, "Lin, sometimes I really feel frustrated."

"is it?"

"Yeah~ You don't know how much effort the director of the R&D department and I put in to get Mobius to make a new leg for you, but you didn't even say thank you. Woo... It's so sad..."

Lin scanned all the records, pausing for a few seconds at a few important points. He paused, then whispered in an imperceptible voice, "Thank you."

"Look, every time you...what?"

Alicia stopped talking in the middle of her words and looked at Lin, who seemed to be fine, with an expression as if she had seen a ghost.

What did he just say?

"you……"

"Don't even think of making me say it again."

After spending more time with Alicia, Lin knew exactly what she wanted to say next. In order to avoid the situation from turning into a cliché light novel plot where one person says thank you and the other says let's do it again, he spoke directly and broke the classic flag.
