If you could install artificial intelligence in your brain, wouldn't you be invincible? You could just glare at anyone and they'd see right through you.
Illya was not allowed to return casually.
[Refrain from saying: "Are you keeping this as a souvenir? Why would you dye it?"]
For this kind of emergency-use trash, people usually just throw it away; they don't even want to carry it around because it takes up too much space.
[Gabriel: Did you also have your personality chip modified? You seem younger than I remember.]
Uh, let's skip this.
[Michelle: Thank you for stopping. I've never felt so good at headquarters. I hope the day I can atone for my sins comes soon.]
Du Jue had nothing to say about Michel's past whistleblowing, since he wasn't involved, but it reminded him of Oozumi.
While I was away, I hoped this guy hadn't run off with the money, otherwise she'd be in for a beating.
[Avoid this: Very good, keep this mindset.]
[Giovanni: Let's go for drinks sometime. I really hate working here.]
[Absolutely not: Do not.]
[Garrion: Duju, those things you're wearing aren't EGO equipment, right? As the head of the R&D department, I'm quite qualified to speak on this. They're different from Trials and Abnormalities; they're a peculiar kind of existence.]
[Avoid saying: "Sorry, this is my company's trade secret. I'll tell you after you join the company."]
[Garrion: I must say, your creativity is truly astonishing. It seems I've neglected my duties as tuner. That thing affecting headquarters must have been brought by you, which explains the unusual nature of the previous tests.]
How come he replies so quickly? Doesn't this person need to sleep?
[Reject this: It's fake, just a fantasy you're having when you're exhausted.]
[Garrion: You can't step into the same river twice, and you can't be both yourself and him.]
I refused to just swipe away this information. It felt like I was being led astray by Gallion as soon as I started talking to her. Moreover, she was neither responsive to soft words nor hard tactics, and seemed eager to pry into my secrets.
He then browsed Urban Girl's live stream and found that the 100,000-view urban Q&A session had been closed, while the original 10,000-view emotional counseling session had skyrocketed to 100,000 views and was being offered at a 90% discount.
I haven't watched live streams for a while, and the screen is filled with so many comments that I can't even see the screen clearly.
[No comments from Brandon: Please send your urban mystery-solving comments regularly. This is the basic logic of Urban Girl, and it can't be neglected.]
[Brandon: Boss! I haven't been able to contact you for days. WorldWings' control is too strict.]
Turn off the live stream and stop browsing the information.
[Shao: Wenduo, K Company has hired all members of the Six Associations, demanding everything related to Lead Gray Melody and Distortion. If you are interested, please reply to me.]
distortion?
After a moment's thought, Du Jue came to his senses and guessed that K Company had discovered that the Lead Gray Symphony was not using the currently known Singularity technology, yet it was exhibiting tremendous destructive power, causing them heavy losses, which is why they were spending money to gather intelligence.
He politely declined Shao's suggestion, feeling that the lead-gray melody should never appear in the city again.
[A: No! Why isn't Du Jue back in World Wings? Did you betray your allies for profit and make a fortune on your own?!]
[Refrain from saying: "It's just a business exchange; I'll give you a raise when I get back."]
[鏌: I took a screenshot!]
[Olga: I really don't know where all these strange things come from in the city. A contagious disease has appeared in the place I'm on a business trip, and it's even turning people's skin green! Is some company doing experiments again? They won't even pay me, how unethical!]
[Refuse: Then just stay away. You can't risk your life for a commission.]
[Olga: Are you talking about yourself? By the way, I heard an association is trying to give you some recognition, since your promotion story was even in a magazine. If it really happens, I should have played a part in it, so it wouldn't be right not to treat you to a meal.]
Don't just laugh it off and agree without thinking.
Harold: Wendo, are you going to become a Forbidden Hunter of the World Wings? An association wants to discuss the honor of the Finisher with you, so they need to know your development plan.
[Note: My role at Company L is only temporary; I will visit an association later.]
Although he has now joined World Wings, he can obtain two powerful work items from both Tier 1 Finisher and Color Honor, so there is no reason for him to give it up.

Chapter 261 Right of Interpretation.
[Olivia: Wow! The streets are full of city girl dolls, and there's even a giant sculpture of one here!]
The picture shows a golden city girl, estimated to be over thirty meters tall, placed steadily in the center of the square, with a patrol of guards nearby to prevent anyone from climbing up.
What really got to Du Jue was that the sign in the Urban Girl sculpture's hand was engraved with the name and number of the live stream. He felt that this was going a bit too far; a virtual streamer shouldn't be turned into a cult.
[Elena: The association has been much quieter lately. I can even go back to my original form and stroll around the newly opened urban girl theme park. I think it's a renovated version of the former Sakura Association. It's a pity you're still working.]
Then came a photo: Elena was lying lazily on a cardboard box, idly patting the little urban girl hanging on the shelf, with white light streaming in through the high window, draping her in a light veil.
[Important: Don't scratch the things in the warehouse if you're not taking them. I've already left Company L; I'm just taking care of some personal business elsewhere and will be back soon.]
Considering the upcoming launch of the Seed of Light, it's best to remind the others in advance.
[Park Hoi: Dude, you moved? That building's been turned into some kind of urban girl factory. Remember that beast tide that cult caused? Lately, there are so many of these half-beast, half-human creatures in the sewers.]
The picture shows a hairy hand lifting a manhole cover, with a pair of bright yellow cat pupils in the darkness.
Upon closer observation of the blurry figure, Du Jue never imagined that the events surrounding my church were still having repercussions. The church residential area he encountered was indeed densely populated, and perhaps a small number of people had survived.
[I hope no one is hurt.]
[Park Hye: Du Jue, I heard you're a high-ranking executive at LAUGH. A friend of mine wants to ask you, are urban girls real?]
[Refuse: Urban Q&A (Click here to jump to payment link)]
[Yi Yin: The Great Wail Incident has left the entire association too busy to care about District 23, and the lead-gray marinated meat has an extreme stimulating effect, rekindling the chefs' interest in cooking. But I still think Mom, your cooking is better.]
Then I am truly guilty.
[Avoid the thought: "It feels worse than being cooked in an iron pot."]
[Lesti: The weapons issued by W Corporation are so cool! Have you ever seen what a space tear looks like? It's a pity it's all classified, so I can't take a picture for you.]
100W eye transfer (Note: This is all I can pay you back for now. I didn't expect to have to spend so much money while working).
[Lesti: This cleaning equipment is way too high-tech. I thought I got a broom or something. Having come into contact with weapons involving singularity technology, if I resign, my memory will probably be erased.]
[I advise against it: Once you've joined World Wings, don't even think about resigning; it's practically the same as being dead.]
[Lesti: Waaaaah!! I finally made it into the nest, I'm definitely not quitting... I'm just a little worried about getting fired. Hey, Dujue, you have to help me out then, I still owe you money!]
A selfie was sent immediately.
With her messy short yellow hair, Leslie leaned her right cheek against a pile of loose change on the table, looking pitifully at the camera.
This positive and uplifting attitude towards working is truly inspiring; I've been infected by it.
[Pianjiang: Brother, why haven't you replied to anything on the live stream for several days? Olivia misses you.]
[Katae: Will we have to move again? It's not really good to keep occupying the nursery room. I really liked our old little room; everything was within easy reach.]
[Katae: Brother, are you getting used to the new bed? I couldn't sleep at all the night I arrived, but I was fine afterwards. Now I bring my own blankets and sheets from the building.]
……
[Katae: If you're busy, I won't bother you anymore. Goodnight, brother.]
After reading through the long string of information, Du felt a mix of emotions. Although most people in the city have some flaws, this is a product of the environment. People like Pianjiang can be considered to have mental illnesses, but in Du's eyes, they are quite normal.
[Refuse: If you want to move, just move. Maybe we'll move into the nest soon. If anything unexpected happens, contact Olga at the molar clinic; she's a friend of mine.]
You will receive a reply shortly after sending the message.
[Katagawa: I understand, good morning, brother.]
I am!
Looking at the time, I realized that there wasn't much time left before work, and for the first time, I didn't really want to go to work.
Stop it, stop it! How could you become so lax?
He immediately rolled over and sped up his browsing.
[Gan Jian: World Wings, huh? It should be a larger version of Vacuum Fist, right? If you want to be a mercenary, why not go for Vacuum Fist?]
[Except: Uh, you didn't come to Company L, did you? And that imposter hasn't contacted you yet, has he?]
Although strictly speaking, the elimination came later, the original chief is no longer human, and this chaotic relationship is difficult to untangle.
[Gan Jian: Hmm. That was a bit mean, saying I was nothing at all, I'm really angry. Mom won't bother me at work, I just wanted to watch it again carefully because it's been a very, very long time since I last watched it.]
[Gan Jian: Although we're in different places, the starry sky above us is the same, which makes me feel like it's always with me. I heard you're going to expand your company, so I'll go back and get some money. It just so happens that Vacuum Fist is recruiting those insectoids.]
Put aside the other person's shortcomings such as face blindness and lack of common sense, and avoid discovering that the other person is unexpectedly very understanding.
What was she doing during the time she went from the suburbs to the back alley?
It couldn't possibly be that CEO Gan Daojiao, could it? But Gan Jian even treats this guy like an ordinary passerby.
[Improve: Please be careful lately; things might be a bit chaotic in the city.]
[Ootori: This building of yours is a den of filth. When the factory was being renovated, we found two corpses in just one room. I was thinking of tearing it down and rebuilding it. And how come you still have a counterattack hammer?]
Upon seeing the picture of the briefcase containing ashes and hand bones, Du Jue realized that it was Su Zao's belongings.
[Prevent: Put it in the current status quo storage box and keep it safe; the company might need it in the future.]
[Oomaru: Wow! You finally have news. How did it go? Was the plan going well? Du Jue, my fortune depends on this one chance. Don't let me lose this gamble, or I feel like I won't have another chance.]
After a moment of thought, Du Jue remembered that he had mentioned to Wei Ban that he would steal L Company's Singularity Technology and replace it as the World Wings. This guy actually believed him.
Although he was serious about eliminating the issue in World Wings, he felt that Ootori wasn't the kind of guy who would just make empty promises and act impulsively.
[No: Please remain calm and wait for good news.]
Du Jue finally understood the benefits of riddles, since the final interpretation rests with him.
Bang.
He immediately jumped out of bed to wash up and get ready for today's work, hoping that no more monsters or demons would appear in the construction department.
However, I should also respond to the urban questions I'm about to answer, since I can't lose my unique style.

Chapter 262 Minions.
[Brandon: Roland [100W eyes] Wasn't Urban Girl doing well? Why was this function turned off for a few days? Yang [100W eyes] What is the relationship between Index Finger and Urban Girl? Is Index Finger's expansion Urban Girl's intention? Gloria [100W eyes] Although I'm curious too~ But Yang, Esther said not to worry about it~ Angelica [100W eyes] I thought Urban Girl was Index Finger's business, after all, the rumored omnipotent command might be able to accept the suffering of so many people. Yuna [100W eyes] If there really is a command, it certainly wouldn't sit idly by and watch Urban Girl run rampant in Index Finger's territory, could the command be a real person?]
He only held a short urban mystery-solving session, but he never expected it to attract so many people. It seems his company is thriving!
[To Roland: Flowers bloom and fade in their own time. To Yang: This is the meaning of an instruction. To Yuna: This place is a city of people.]
Du Jue put away his communicator as he went down to the R&D department to report for duty. He took a deep breath and pushed open the door.
"This is a silent place where no one visits. Employees who come here usually lose their minds and forget everything."
Garion stood before a series of overlapping square stone tablets, their gilded lettering serving as almost the only source of light.
Du Jue, who was passing through this area, couldn't help but complain, "Is this the reason for not turning on the lights? Are they afraid of scaring other people?"
Suddenly, a rapid alarm sounded.
"Don't worry, headquarters has taken that into account. The employees' eyes have all been specially modified."
As Galion retreated into the darkness, he raised his hand to signal that no one should enter the construction department. "The control department will dispatch staff to assist you."
The regret of the weak is twice as weak.
The mental echo that was almost identical to the supervisor's voice made Du Jue immediately realize that the phenomenon was caused by the Construction Department. This time, it seemed to be not limited to that strange room, but covered the entire headquarters.
The broadcast immediately broadcast Supervisor Ein's order: "Ilya, allocate manpower to support the lower levels in the prevention efforts. Attention all department heads: today, ensure that the anomalous entities do not escape; there is no need to worry about energy collection targets."
Boom!
The iron door to the R&D department was suddenly pushed open, followed by a group of employees and their leader, Minister Lisa. "Hurry up, everyone, give it your all! Let's finish this test in one go!"
Bang bang bang!
Dodging several rapid-fire fang-like bullets, Du Jue immediately noticed that the newcomer's face was completely covered by twisted black lines. He quickly retreated and shouted, "Where's the support?! Aren't these all the byproducts from yesterday?!"
Bang!
Before Du Jue could draw his weapon, he saw the enemy's offensive suddenly weaken, and even the short, black-skinned Lisa was anxiously retreating back down the corridor. "Cheer up! There are a lot of enemies this time! We'll get reinforcements!"
