Walking the Path of a Workaholic in Cliché Novels (QT) Chapter 189

The three who reached a cooperation exited the beverage shop and found five people at the door. It seemed that they were…

“What are you doing here?” Dina, who was looking at the door, had narrowed eyes.

“Maggie missed you.”

Dina sneered: “From the moment she chose to leave with you, my sister is gone.”

“No matter what you think, I promised Maggie that I would help you if possible.” The man said gently.

An Yinong raised his eyebrows. This hypocritical sympathetic performance brought him back to the entertainment industry. He suddenly felt curious.

[What did you do to make Dina so unhappy? I want to know.]

The voice with a wonderful rhythm reached the ears of this contestant. He stood still, his pupils dilated, and laughed wantonly: “A mere businessman dares to stop us, so I will make their family bankrupt and leave them with nothing.”

An Yinong put the tip of his tongue against his gums: Sure enough, when the other party was hostile to him, using non-lethal abilities on an enemy would also make him uncomfortable. The world consciousness had also taken great pains to prevent him from using his abilities indiscriminately.

However, the discomfort was mild, no more than a mosquito bite, and was harmless.

[Oh, it sounds like your family is pretty powerful? ]

The man smiled complacently, “Of course, some of them won’t make the news, but they hold power. With just one phone call from me, the district chief, no matter how busy he is, has to put down his work and cooperate with me. This is power. It’s a pity that this businessman doesn’t know how to appreciate it and dares to refuse. Humph, I must get what I want. Don’t say Maggie likes me. Even if she doesn’t like me, I will make her stay by my side obediently.”

Dina’s expression changed. She was about to speak, but An Yinong blocked her with one hand, still smiling: [The law doesn’t matter?]

“You don’t really think that just because the law says it’s fair, we can be fair, right? The law says we can’t kill, so let them disappear forever. The law says it can’t be inherited, but power will always be in the hands of those few families, and it’s passed down in ways you can’t see. Law? Hahahaha, we make the laws, don’t you understand?”

“Clap, clap, clap.” An Yinong clapped his hands. “I see. Thank you for telling me this. It’s amazing. I’ve learned a lot.”

Every word he said hit the contestant in the heart. He looked at the countless cameras surrounding him and his face paled. The reason why unspoken rules were unspoken was that they could not be seen in public. Once they were seen in public, they would be taken.

As if his curiosity was satisfied, An Yinong walked away. The contestant’s face flushed red, but Qin glanced at him coldly, and the anger in his heart was instantly frozen.

There were some rules outside of what they set, like Qin.

“Mai, this…” Dina chased after him.

“Don’t worry, I’ll be wandering around the world after the game is over. Oh, by the way, don’t learn from me and use your ability to ‘force’ others to tell you the truth, that’s a crime.” He winked at the stunned Dina, took a few steps forward and hugged Qin’s arm, “I want to go to the star field for a walk, okay Qin?”

“Okay.”

“Is there anything delicious over there?”

They got closer and closer, chatting about delicious food and beautiful scenery, with a relaxed and happy tone in their voices, and Dina was forgotten.

She looked back at the enemy who looked like he had lost his parents, and then looked at An Yinong and Qin who had taken the matter seriously from the beginning to the end and had easily “destroyed” an entire family: after breaking out of the rules, it turned out that these were nothing more than that.

Dina followed with a relaxed smile, and some people who had been paying attention to the duo couldn’t laugh.

“Crime is not scary. What is scary is being able to face up to one’s own evil intentions and control the extent of one’s own ‘crime’.”

Mai was well aware that he was fighting violence with violence, and committing a crime, but he had set the standard within the acceptable range. But what if one day, he did not want to restrain himself?

A man in the office stood up, walked around and turned back to the screen. An Yinong on the screen was still talking about what interesting and fun things there were at the edge of the star field. It seemed that he had planned to go to Qin’s place after the game was over.

Maybe if the explorers lose Qin, there will be another difficult object.

“General, why do you care so much about this? Although he has some secrets, it won’t affect anything.” His assistant felt strange.

“Compared to the ability to control plants and animals, this ability similar to truth-telling is terrifying. And we don’t know yet whether this ability is just ‘truth-telling’ or ‘control’.”

“Activate the line in the game and give it a try.”

The assistant was stunned for a moment, then immediately answered “Yes”. But then he became a little confused, and his mood showed on his face.

“Are you wondering why I’m being so serious?”

“Yes, if it’s inconvenient…”

The young general laughed and looked at the screen again: “What inconvenience. If it’s just ‘truth telling’, then it doesn’t matter, but if it’s ‘control’… In addition, if you have watched the previous video, you will know that his strange ability can be transmitted through video.

“It can be transmitted through video. ‘Control’. Ha, so, do you still think this ability is ordinary?”

Cold sweat broke out on the assistant’s back.

In the interstellar age, powerful politicians liked to meet with the masses through live broadcasts and virtual platforms. If one of them could use this indirect means to “order” the powerful politician to “commit suicide”, things would be troublesome.

“So, do you understand the importance of this matter?”

Like a cat’s playful biting, you think it’s just playing with you, but in fact it’s practicing how to hunt you. If one day, it can really kill you… Will you still find it cute then?

“Golden Eyes, equipment.”

Dina left to get transportation equipment, Qin went to collect food, and An Yinong brought Fengchi to look for treasure.

The snow-white body was very eye-catching, but the rumor had spread in the small city that Qin had an ambiguous relationship with a snow body, and no one dared to come and cause trouble for him.

The first thing that caught An Yinong’s eyes was a green light shooting up into the sky. He walked over and found a palm-sized object with a black amber texture from a cabinet in an inconspicuous pharmacy on the side of the road.

He sniffed it and found a special smell, so he calmly turned his back and put it in his pocket.

“A piece of amber.”

For a minute after he went in and out, someone thought he was just going in for a stroll, and even shook his head and said, “What nonsense, what a waste of time, at least look for it.”

Audience in the live broadcast room: …Hehe.

After that, An Yinong was picking up treasures all the way, hidden in drawers of roadside shops, in small boxes of jewelry stores, and even in cars parked on the roadside. All obstacles were transparent to him.

“Come to think of it, he found the golden tumor like this on his first day.”

“And Bluebell.”

The audience went from being surprised and numb, to suspecting that this person with X-ray eyes was the organizer’s biological son.

“How can he emit amber after walking a few steps?”

Organizer: I want to know more than you do.

The three of them gathered together in the evening and presented their results.

Dina had made a drivable vehicle, but vehicles of this era required liquid fuel. It was easy to find a car, but it was difficult to find fuel.

And Qin also collected enough ingredients.

An Yinong took out his spoils, and the dark brown stuff was spread all over the floor. Qin was fine, but Dina’s mouth was big enough to fit an egg.

“So, so many?” She had been wandering around the city for a whole day, looking for everything. Her new teammate had been searching for quite some time, and he found so many?

Amber that cost 30,000 yuan per gram was just like wood chips on the roadside.

“These are yours, and these are Qin’s.” An Yinong explained, pushing the best quality parts in front of Qin, “I originally found these for him, I hope you don’t think this way of distribution is unfair.”

“No, how could that be?” In fact, Dina felt that she was inexplicably guilty for taking these pieces.

“Is it okay?” Qin looked at the precious ambers, and then he grabbed An Yinong’s hand and carefully observed his expression under the light. Qin knew that An Yinong had to pay a price to use these special abilities.

“Don’t bother with me, there’s no way to heal me.”

“At least it makes you feel that bad.”

An Yinong smiled and looked up: “Every time you go hunting for those special animals, you have to say that you hunted them along the way when you come back. It’s also because I’m in the differentiation period and need these foods, right? Are you allowed to be good to me, but I’m not allowed to be good to you?”

Qin coughed softly, “Thank you.”

Dina: Maybe I shouldn’t be here.

The audience curled their lips sourly: Humph.

The next day, An Yinong continued to use the “Golden Eye” to search for amber. His actions yesterday had already attracted other attention, and today some people were following him.

The huge temptation of benefits made them forget the fear they had when facing Qin, or perhaps they thought that Qin was not good and An Yinong became a vulnerable group that could be robbed.

“Bye.” An Yinong smiled at the contestant who was tied up by vines, and then pressed the opponent’s ‘Give Up’ button without hesitation.

This was the third contestant he had sent away, and he had also found Xiangpo and snatched him away later.

And two hours passed.

“Mr. Mai, can we talk for a while?”

A polite question came from behind, and An Yinong slowly turned his head: “It’s inconvenient.”

Behind him was a team of five. Five or six was a very popular team configuration among the players. Leading the team was a gentle-looking man in his twenties.

An Yinong could tell at a glance whether a team was formed early before entering the game, or was put together temporarily during the game, but he couldn’t analyze the team in front of him clearly.

These five did not have much tacit understanding and seemed to be a temporary team, but the other four seemed to be very convinced by the one in the front and had an unconscious respect and admiration for him.

A player who conquered all other players by single-handedly?

“What’s up? Or do you want to grab it too?”

“Of course not. Can you trade amber with me?”

An Yinong paused for a moment: “What can you provide?”

“What do you need?” He smiled and stepped aside, revealing what was behind him. “Do you need these?”

What he took out was fuel, the type needed for transportation in this era.

An Yinong raised his eyebrows: he knew this about them.

They traded amber and liquid fuel. The man who received the amber seemed very satisfied. He smiled and stretched out his hand: “It’s a pleasure to work with you.”

An Yinong looked at his outstretched hand, a slight smile appeared on his face, and he also stretched out his hand.

“I heard that Mr. Mai has the ability to make people tell the truth?” the man suddenly asked, “What an amazing ability.”

“Really? It’s just so-so.”

Their hands gently clasped and then unclenched.

“Host…” The system said.

“Don’t talk to me yet.”

“Okay.” The system didn’t quite understand what was going on, but it still squatted quietly on An Yinong’s shoulder until they left the neighborhood.

“Host, what happened just now?” Feeling that the sense of oppression had eased a lot, the system finally couldn’t help but ask.

“It should be a rare ‘mind reader’ among the Zerg, who can read real thoughts through physical contact. He suddenly asked me about ‘truth telling’ to test whether my ability is limited to this.” An Yinong narrowed his eyes.

“What about the host?”

“Relationship, that’s exactly what I want.”

The reason why he used the ability of “Spiritual Speech” again yesterday was to reinforce the public’s impression that “this is the ability to tell the truth”. With An Yinong’s current ability, if he had the ability to tell the truth, it wouldn’t be a problem.

But if what he possessed was the ability to ‘control others’, I’m afraid many people would wish he disappeared from the world.

At least until he has the power to protect himself, his ability was only to ‘tell the truth’.
