The Chosen System: Counterattack with Husband

As if to confirm that this was its own "granary", the black cat squatted by the pond and stared at it for a long time, then suddenly reached out and scooped something up.

When the lively fish was jumping on the shore unwillingly, Lin Yi finally understood what Xuanmao wanted to tell him.

——Mr. Two-legged beast, even if no one feeds me, I, who is usually called Mimi by you humans, can live well.

Xu Yiyu saw the fish still jumping at Lin Yi's feet, and silently covered his raised mouth.

Seeing Captain Lin being taught a lesson by Xiaoye, forgive her for not being able to help herself.

Rong Yan on the side also pushed his glasses and walked forward to pat Lin Yi, who looked obviously embarrassed.

Xiaoye seemed to understand that the answer had been conveyed. He casually swept the still jumping fish with one claw and mercifully put it back into the pond.

Lin Yi pursed his lips as he looked at the water marks created by the fish in front of him, then looked at Xiao Ye.

Xiaoye blinked her emerald green eyes and walked back to the coffin along the same path she came from.

"Miwu~"

Xiaoye stretched out his front paw to gesture to the bag left there by Lin Yi and Rong Yan, then raised his head and glanced at the two of them.

"Host, Xiaoye is right. They should put on their bags and move on."

The Chosen System was acting as a simultaneous interpreter diligently, and when it called out the name "Xiaoye", it was as if some memory was triggered, and the blood formed by the data flow began to circulate rapidly in its body.

Strangely, this name seems to be important not only to its host.

It seems that this is also a very important name for it.

Xu Yiyu wanted to open his mouth to remind them, but he saw that his two companions consciously stepped forward and put on their bags, and then immediately shut their mouths.

As expected, after being together for a long time, the three of them can now understand all of Xiaoye’s actions and intentions very well.

It seemed that whether it could speak or not would not affect the communication between them.

After the three of them put their backpacks back on, Xiaoye walked up the stairs and jumped onto the lid of the huge coffin again.

It raised its front paws and tapped the coffin lid, then let out another long cry.

The first Chosen System that understood Xiaoye's meaning was stunned for a moment, as if it was somewhat surprised by the meaning it conveyed.

"What's wrong, Tongzi? Your expression..."

"What Xiaoye meant just now was... to ask you to open the coffin lid."

"what?!"

Xu Yiyu noticed the subtlety in his son's expression and took the initiative to ask in his conscious world, but got an unexpected answer.

"Open the coffin?!"

"...That's right."

Even though he knew there was no body in this fake coffin, Xu Yiyu still felt a little hesitant when he looked at this coffin that looked like a real one.

She, Xu, knew that there was no body in the coffin, but how could she make her companions accept this statement...

After all, the place they are in now is a mausoleum on the surface, and the coffin contains the "master" of this mausoleum.

No matter what era, disturbing a person who has been sleeping for a long time is not something that is advocated.

Perhaps because of their emotions, Rong Yan and Lin Yi, who were originally trying to figure out what Xiao Ye meant, now looked at Xu Yiyu, who had a complicated expression on his face.

"Sister Yi Yu, do you know what it wants us to do?"

Rong Yan's words hit the mark, but they only earned Xu Yiyu's silent bitter smile.

Lin Yi keenly caught Xu Yiyu's contradiction from her expression and immediately pointed it out directly.

"Boss Xu, no matter what you understand, you can speak out first."

"It's not that I don't want to say it, but... this guess is a bit far-fetched, and I'm afraid I'm thinking the wrong thing."

Xu Yiyu felt even more conflicted.

She, Xu, was not afraid of thinking wrongly. She was afraid that if she told the truth, her two companions in front of her would not be able to accept it.

Since Xiaoye has indicated this, the next thing they have to do is to open the coffin.

But it seemed a bit rash to ask Xiaoye to open a coffin where the two of them didn't know whether there was a corpse or not just based on his action.

When Rong Yan heard this, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes behind his glasses, and then he widened his eyes slightly.

"Sister Yi Yu, let me make a bold guess. Does the little fellow want us to open the coffin?"

"……Um."

Rong Yan's words hit the nail on the head for the second time, leaving Xu Yiyu speechless for a moment.

This brother was perhaps a little too sensitive. Even if she wanted to find a more tactful explanation, it was too late.

Surprisingly, there was no surprise on the faces of her two companions.

Rong Yan stared at Xiaoye for a few seconds and asked it a question.

"Mimi, is this what you mean?"

Although Xiaoye seemed a little uncomfortable with people calling it Mimi other than Xu Yiyu, he still nodded straightforwardly.

Lin Yi also instantly understood the reason why Xu was hesitant to speak just now.

"Mr. Xu, according to the person in your dream, there is no body in this coffin, right?"

"Yes, indeed."

"Then let's do it, without further delay."

Seeing that Rong Yan was already looking for a convenient place to attack around the coffin after Lin Yi said this, Xu Yiyu was also refreshed with his perception of the extremely high acceptance of his two companions.

What was supposed to be a labor of persuasion turned out to be something that didn't require any persuasion at all.

Although he couldn't remember the name and appearance of the owner of the underground palace, Xu Yiyu still apologized frantically in his heart at a very fast speed.

"I'm sorry, but this is Xiaoye's guidance. I will definitely treat it well in the future."

Xu Yiyu apologized in his heart while looking for a suitable position with Rong Yan.

Um? wrong!

Why did she subconsciously feel that she should be the one to take care of Xiaoye, and so naturally tied Xiaoye's future to hers?

...as if this is what she, Xu, will always be doing in the future.

Xu Yiyu didn't understand where this unknown premonition came from. It didn't seem like someone had given him a psychological hint, nor did it seem like a decision he made on impulse.

She looked at Xiaoye, who was sitting on the coffin lid as the "supervisor", in a daze. She walked up to him as if possessed by a ghost and whispered something in front of him.

"Xiaoye, after we leave the underground palace, are you willing to go home with me?"

The black cat sitting on the coffin lid didn't hesitate at all. Its emerald green eyes looked into Xu Yiyu's eyes without any cover, and it nodded at her very firmly.

——As if it had been waiting for a long time to say this to the person in front of it.

When Xu Yiyu got the answer, his heart seemed to be stirred by a huge wave that covered the sky and the sun.

She knew that the little guy in front of her might have stayed in the underground palace for centuries not just to accompany his master's coffin.

Or maybe it's waiting for its next owner to appear.

After Xiaoye nodded, the weakness assistance function that appeared after the system update was instantly awakened, and a seemingly ordinary floor tile was circled with a blue square on the ground at the other end of the coffin.

Xu Yiyu understood immediately and walked over.

This brick should be the key for the three of them to go to the next space.
