After midnight, dinner was over. Zhu Tao excitedly wanted to start a midnight party. Seeing this, Xi De immediately opened more than a dozen bottles of hard liquor on the spot, while Chao Wu directly brought out an electric guitar. An Yu was immediately deterred by this explosive social scene. He picked up his things from the floor and followed the Commander into the elevator. The half-closed elevator doors opened again, and Yan and Lumen entered, one after the other. Qin Zhilu casually asked,…-

"And then what?" Flame asked. Qin Zhilu casually cut a piece of potato cheese pie. Seeing the large chunks of ham inside, he realized it was Zhu Tao's version, not An Yu's improved one, so he put down his knife. "Brute-force machine learning, it only learned very shallow things, nothing of reference value. I've already decided to destroy it." He didn't explain further, and Flame didn't ask more questions. But An Yu couldn't help glancing at the Commander's terminal. On his third glance, Qin Zhilu…-

As the car started, An Yu remembered to buckle his seatbelt. In a glance, he froze. The clock hanging outside the church was still ticking quietly—20:44. And at that moment, the time on the car's screen was also 20:44. If he remembered correctly, the Commander had said it was 20:43 before entering the church. And it had taken at least a minute for them to leave the church and get into the car and say these few words. This meant that inside the church, time had indeed completely stopped their talk…-

"So do not rashly join the revelry; a frozen river will one day resume its torrent. Its pace never falters, and it will never turn back." The Poet, wearing a black silk shirt and trousers and holding a nearly burnt-out candle, stepped into the circle of candles at the center of the church. He stepped over the scattered wax drippings and placed the small candle stub into the giant central candle. "The departed orphans have no lingering attachments. "Tonight, strangers pray for every tender…-

The first ray of morning light pierced through the window, illuminating his sleepy golden eyes. An Yu yawned, glanced at the tightly shut metal door, then dragged his octopus plush toy out of the Commander's room. As he pushed the door open, he came face to face with Billy, who was standing in front of his own door, about to knock. Billy's bird-like eyes widened, erupting with a series of exceedingly complex expressions. An Yu yawned, squeezing past him. "Morning. Didn't sleep with the…-

An Yu, holding his octopus plush toy, instinctively occupied the sofa. Chen Nian's candle rested on the bedside table. In the faint candlelight, Qin Zhilu unwrapped a pair of gloves from a box. The cabinet always kept several stacks of new gloves, and the pair he was wearing now had been put on today. He calmly put on the pair given to him by his supervised subject but keenly sensed a subtle difference. There seemed to be a slightly raised pattern on the pad of his right index finger. He extended his…-

A faint ringing in his ears grew stronger. An Yu could feel a layer of sweat between his finger and the trigger as his index finger began to slip, as if it was threatening to pull the trigger. This realization instantly made his barely controlled heartbeat race, and he immediately released his grasp as if shocked by it. The hand holding his tightened and the leather glove rubbed along his fingers. Qin Zhilu's steady voice spoke close to his ear, "Clear your mind. Remember, this gun is your authority.…-

"Commander, I altered the recipe a little," An Yu said, following a short distance behind him. "After my gene induction experiment ended, I was really craving for the texture of wheat berries, because only when I was chewing them did I feel like I was still alive. But Billy also said that when you were little, you liked to listen to vinyl records while chewing on nuts he bought for you, and you could finish a whole jar in an afternoon. So I added a little bit of oats and nuts." He paused, then…-

thank you for the ko-fi donation anon and jaelsilk At the other end of the terminal, Fengjian Tianyu murmured, "No wonder the second mirror fragment never disappeared... By the way, An Yu, in what form does the part sealed by the mirror exist?" An Yu stared blankly at the terminal for a moment before answering, "I don't know." "Does the sealed part have consciousness? Is it another very weak Law?" An Yu recalled the feeling of meeting his own gaze when looking in the mirror. "Maybe…-

In the cabin, Qin Zhilu, An, and Ning were asleep, only Zhu Tao kept whispering to Tang Feng. Zhu Tao was also looking at the real-time report of the orphanage mission, muttering softly to Tang Feng, "They said they haven't found any usable ability on Jian Xing yet, and Sisi isn't awake either." Tang Feng gently patted his hand. "Retaining will after abnormality is already an extremely low-probability event. Becoming a Protector with powerful abilities is even rarer." An Yu looked at the clouds…-
