This bug is amazing!

Chapter 97 Song Wanyao (Thanks to Wu Jiu for the 3000 points)

Looking at the reducing agent that rolled to my feet.

Ji Yi picked them up and put them back in the wooden box.

Will Tucker witnessed this but remained silent.

“I understand your desire as a father to save your daughter, but the restorative agent alone is not enough.”

Ji Yi shook the wooden box.

"However, if you can trust me, I can try to help you. What do you think, Mr. Will?"

Will's expression was stern: "Are you sure you can help me?"

"I can't guarantee 100% success, but if you rely solely on the reducing agent, you're guaranteed to fail."

"Are you so certain that I will fail?"

Will's tone was unpleasant, with a hint of disdain and arrogance in his eyes.

"Hehe, I'm not questioning your invention, but your understanding of the fake human is not thorough enough. You should take a look at the information collected by other agents."

As he spoke, Ji Yi pulled out a stack of documents.

This is the result of Miss Cat's investigation yesterday.

It started with fake infants and gradually spread to apartment communities.

It escalated to the point where every tenant who entered could not leave, losing all contact with the outside world.

After the fake person incident has fully fermented.

Human authorities then officially designated this apartment building as a restricted area.

The entire incident, from beginning to end, was completed within just one year.

Of course, this information is already common knowledge to the outside world.

The focus is on the "inhumanity" of advanced pseudo-humans and how they are formed; Miss Cat has found many reliable arguments to support this.

This was enough to convince even the most stubborn scientists.

"You mean..." Will said, his hand trembling as he held the documents in his hand.

"The real person who was replaced is completely dead. It's like uploading a person's memories to a terminal device and forcibly using a restore agent, which will only format the storage... But then, what way do you have to save her!"

Will felt that the pillar that held him together had collapsed.

"That's why I said it's not 100% certain. But if you don't try, you definitely won't have a chance."

"Okay, I'm willing to help you. You can take these three reducing agents."

Will no longer cared whether Ji Yi was lying to get the reducing agent or whether it could really help him.

All he could do was trust Ji Yi, even if she was just trying to trick him out of the props; he had no other choice.

Otherwise, even the last hope that kept him alive would be extinguished.

"Give me your daughter's information. You should have already found it, right?"

Ji Yi put the reducing agent into her inventory.

Will seemed oblivious, as if some kind of will prevented him from recognizing that the object had vanished into thin air.

Will sighed and said:
“She lives in Room 202, Unit 5, Block 3. Her name is Xie Feilan, and she has just turned eighteen.”

Ji Yi was puzzled:

"Is it a Chinese name?"

“Her mother is a local, and she has lived here with her mother since she was a child.”

"Okay, I understand. I will help you as much as I can. However, you also need to be careful not to let the imposter find out. Once you are replaced by the imposter, I will be the one who suffers. For your daughter's sake, please do your best to live."

"Hmph, don't look down on me. Young man, you'd better watch yourself, or you might end up dead on the way after taking my things."

"Hehe, thank you for your concern, I will be careful."

The conversation between the two ended pleasantly.

Ji Yi quickly left the garden.

They headed straight for the community rest station.

Daytime is the time for the fake people to be active, while office workers like Feng Yu and Song Wanyao are on their working hours.

The community rest station is a small, independent building.

The exterior is mainly made of glass curtain walls, so you can see inside from the outside.

From a distance, you can see uniformed staff inside the building checking in the visiting imposters.

This is the point that puzzles Ji Yi the most.

Where did these fake people brought in from the outside come from?
Since this apartment complex became a no-go zone for humans, almost no new human tenants have come. Instead, it has been inhabited by bizarre pseudo-humans.

According to Ms. Cat's investigation, the apartment community is not a one-way street.

There have been instances of fake people moving out, but these cases are few.

Moreover, there is too little relevant information, and the reasons and conditions for the fake person's relocation are unclear.

There are too many mysteries surrounding this place.

Arriving at the community service station.

Ji Yi disguised herself as an ordinary tenant, taking a morning stroll and basking in the sunlight while sitting on a bench.

His eyes would occasionally dart toward the community rest station diagonally across the street.

They were all highly skilled imposters, their professional fake smiles perfectly executed. It's a pity they were just ordinary property management and customer service staff; the supervisors didn't seem to be here.

'This is troublesome. Where am I supposed to find Song Wanyao?'

With her hands braced against the bench behind her, Ji Yi closed her eyes.

Bathed in sunlight, one should feel relaxed and content.

His jumbled thoughts only made him feel hot all over.

"handsome guy."

at this time.

A sweet, melodious voice rang out from in front of her, and even just from the tone of the voice, the image of a sweet and lovely girl immediately came to mind.

If this were in the real world...

In this situation, Ji Yi might feel her heart flutter and her mind race.

But here it is.

Ji Yi's heart suddenly tightened, skipping a beat.

Open your eyes slowly.

There was a cute girl in front of me.

She is less than 1.6 meters tall, petite and slender, and her appearance is as sweet and lovely as her voice.

She has two adorable dimples when she smiles.

Her radiant smile is enough to melt the hearts of some otaku.

But in Ji Yi's eyes, it was as if she saw a vengeful ghost seeking death.

[Song Wanyao, a pseudo-human, possesses the original owner's memories and is aware of the existence of people from another world. As one of the apartment's managers, she has become the top-performing employee in the Donghuamen Apartment Community due to her outstanding appearance and eloquent speaking skills.]

Beneath her harmless exterior lies a cunning and wicked heart; of the thirty-three missing agents, nearly twenty were exposed after her probing. After all, who could suspect a cute little girl?

[Danger Level: Extremely Dangerous]

Use your skills to think quickly.

Faced with such sudden crises, quick thinking has almost become Ji Yi's instinct.

'This information isn't enough, Data Eye, let me see your limits!'

Your suspicious behavior has aroused her suspicion.

Please try your best to behave in a manner consistent with a fake person.

[Keep your emotions in check.]

In theory, as long as your emotions remain stable, you will be safe in the vast majority of cases.

So what are the minority cases?
Ji Yi didn't have time to think about it for the time being.

"What's up?"

Ji Yi tried her best to make her expression and tone appear wooden.

Song Wanyao smiled faintly:
"Mr. Giba, have you forgotten me so quickly? I was the one who helped you sign the contract when you checked in. It hasn't been that long!"

To Ji Yi, her sweet smile seemed like that of a demon or monster.

It's impossible not to be afraid when a boss-level character suddenly appears.

A normal person would have been defeated here long ago.

However, seemingly a lingering effect of the soul bug that had trapped her body last time, Ji Yi does seem to be able to actively control her emotions when she wants to.

'Has my emotion become like a manual transmission?'

Why couldn't I hold onto Brother Yun last night? That's strange.

Let's not delve any deeper; let's deal with Song Wanyao first.

"is it?"

Ji Yi forced a smile.

"I'm sorry, I don't quite remember."

He used stop-motion animation-style frame-by-frame movements to create a sense of inhumanity in his expression.

He looked at the reflection in Song Wanyao's eyes.

[I give this performance a 9 out of 10. How about I act in a terrible domestic horror movie? I've even thought of a title: "The Return of Jiba."]

"You really have a bad memory."

Song Wanyao's smile was impeccable; she couldn't tell at all that she wasn't human.

Even the fine hairs on its face were clearly visible in the sunlight. No wonder Miss Cat fell for it.

Then Song Wanyao bent down and touched Ji Yi's face with her hand.

"The temperature, touch, and appearance details are so well done, it feels like you are a real human being."

Ji Yi remained expressionless: "Thank you for the compliment. I'm still learning how to imitate a real human being. I hope that in the future, I can be like you."

Song Wanyao smiled even more sweetly.

She bent down and sat naturally on the bench, her body close to Ji Yi's.

"You're very handsome; in terms of human aesthetics, you're considered one of the most outstanding types."

Is this woman planning to chat forever?

I have no choice but to grit my teeth and keep acting, and maybe I can get some information out of them.

"Thank you for the compliment."

Song Wanyao naturally took Ji Yi's arm:

"Can you tell me who this character you're playing is?"

Ji Yi: "I don't remember much, I only know the name."

Adhere to the principle of saying less and making fewer mistakes.

Most questions were brushed off with excuses like "I forgot" or "I don't know".

Surprisingly, Song Wanyao was able to chat with great interest for quite a while.

Don't you have to go to work?

In the middle, Ji Yi tried to ask a few questions.

However, Song Wanyao always took the lead in the conversation, so much so that they obtained almost no reliable information.

However, Ji Yi still mustered up the courage to ask one question:
"I'm curious about something: new residents are always moving into the community, but are there really that many rooms in the apartment building?"

Song Wanyao still smiled and said, "What kind of problem is this? Some people move in, and naturally some people move out."

Ji Yi mustered her courage and pressed on:

Where did you move to?

Song Wanyao seemed oblivious to anything amiss, and stated frankly:
"Of course they'll go to other 'pseudo-human schools' to study. Who wouldn't know that?"

The voice just fell.

brush--

Her neck suddenly stretched out, circling around Ji Yi like a beautiful snake.

The two faced each other, their foreheads almost touching.

Song Wanyao's voice suddenly changed, and she asked in a shrill voice like an old witch:
"Are you having fun here with Schrödinger's cat?"

Ji Yi's expression remained blank:

"A cat? I don't own a cat, so I'm happy. This feeling is a bit complicated. Should I laugh?"

After saying that, Ji Yi grinned widely.

It seems that this smile is not happy enough.

He pulled out a small knife from somewhere and forcefully cut both sides of his mouth:
Do you think I'm happy now?

brush--

Song Wanyao's neck instantly returned to normal.

She said with a hint of reproach, "Brother Ji, I just praised you for being like a human. You'll scare humans if you keep acting like this."

"Damn, you almost scared me to death."

Ji Yi cursed inwardly.

If it weren't for the early warning from the data eye, I would have almost fallen victim to it.

This Nightmare difficulty level is far too high; it's not something a normal human could handle.

Having calmed herself down, Ji Yi responded with a smile:

"Humans, don't you like to laugh like this?"

Despite the excruciating pain, he inserted his index fingers into the wounds on both sides and hooked them upwards forcefully.

Song Wanyao cast a disdainful look at her:

"Bleeding can be frightening."

Ji Yi tilted her head: "That woman must scare people every month, right?"

Song Wanyao's almond-shaped eyes widened in surprise.

Then he chuckled and said, "I didn't expect Brother Ji to have a talent for telling jokes. You have great potential!"

Facing the cute and lively Song Wanyao.

A sense of doubt arose within me.

'They are almost indistinguishable from humans.'

Besides the "neck spin" move I just made.

Song Wanyao took out a milky white glass bottle and handed it to Ji Yi.

"Here, this is for you, it's for treating your injuries."

Ji Yi took it.

【Name: Body Tissue Regeneration Ointment】

[Type: props]

[Quality: perfect]

[Effect: Can instantly heal all wounds of organic life forms, with the best effect on mammals]

[Can it be taken out of the instance: Yes]

[Note: Reattaching a severed head and applying a circular motion around the neck can revive it. Isn't medicine amazing?]

Such good stuff.

It feels like a waste to use it.

Although it is classified as an item, it is actually a consumable because its durability loss is irreparable; each use reduces its remaining lifespan.

To avoid giving himself away, Ji Yi readily accepted and used it.

"Thank you."

Unscrew the cap and apply the ointment to both sides of your cheeks.

The wound quickly grew granulation tissue, and everything returned to normal.

Song Wanyao stood up and walked to Ji Yi.

He cupped Ji Yi's face in his hands and examined her closely.

"really not bad."

She chuckled.

Ji Yi remained expressionless: "You mean the ointment's effects? It's really great."

"Do not."

Song Wanyao held Ji Yi's face and looked at it from left to right.

"Your face is really nice, I'm sure I'd like your type."

Ji Yi asked in confusion, "Sister?"

Could it be referring to Miss Cat?

Song Wanyao nodded:
"In another world, her name is Schrödinger's Cat."

Ji Yi: "It doesn't sound like a human name."

"Because that's just a code name, her real name is... Never mind, you wouldn't understand even if I told you. You're really lacking in discipline right now."

Ji Yi: "."

"Once I capture my sister and we become one of the same kind, I will give you to her as a gift."

Ji Yi: "."

Were these words spoken as a disguise for "Song Wanyao," or were they spoken by Song Wanyao herself?
Ji Yi was a little confused.

The most advanced human emotions are almost perfectly embodied in the woman before me.

"By the way, the goods haven't been inspected yet."

As Song Wanyao spoke, she began to undo Ji Yi's belt.

"The equipment has to be big and beautiful enough."

Ji Yi was speechless. He wanted to put up a fight, but he was afraid that the other party would become suspicious.

Fine, I'll watch it if I want.

Taking a quick look won't cost you anything; you're still just a piece of toilet paper, completely innocent.

Just as the belt was pulled out.

Suddenly, a man walked over.

The eyes provide information.

[A fake version of Detective Chang, one of the five detectives from your cohort.]

Chang Tan pointed at Ji Yi:
"Manager Song, he is one of the agents who infiltrated the team."
