Absolute Zone Zero: I survive in Liufen Street

"Isn't it a pity?"

"……what?"

Soft music came from the car radio. The female singer's voice was as sweet as a lover's whisper, echoing in the closed car.

The road back to the city wasn't long, but it wasn't short either. Late at night, the highway was quiet with few cars on it.

A handsome young man and a beautiful young woman were alone in a small, warm and quiet space.

There are soft love songs in my ears, and the lights flashing outside the window flicker on the person next to me. It is neither bright nor completely dim, a perfect romantic atmosphere, very suitable for chatting.

But the topic the two of them were talking about had nothing to do with romance, and was rather dull.

"No one remembers everything you have done in the void, and no one will appreciate your efforts. Don't you feel lost?" Ms. Jane held the steering wheel, her fingers tapping lightly to the rhythm of the music.

“…Saving people was my own choice and had nothing to do with anyone else.

I don’t care whether I am thanked or scolded afterwards.

Moreover, we are strangers to each other, so it is inevitable that we will be forgotten as time goes by after we separate.

Now they just skipped the 'process' and went straight to the 'end'. There was nothing to worry about.

Besides, they have already given a thank you gift in the void.

And I also fulfilled my promise and brought everyone out of the cave safely, that's enough." Bai Zhi looked at the reflection of Ms. Jian in the car window and said calmly. "Besides, for people like us, being remembered is a headache.

This result is simply a "perfect ending" that can only be achieved by being blessed by the goddess of luck.

"...Do you think the 'hero' being nameless is a [perfect ending]?"

"The hero being nameless is certainly not a perfect ending."

But what kind of hero am I? I'm just an outlaw who attempted to steal something but failed." Bai Zhi said with some self-mockery.

"Yeah yeah……

Not only did they fail to steal anything, but they also took the trouble to rescue the "owner" in distress." Ms. Jane echoed in a perfunctory tone.

"..." Bai Zhi opened his mouth, but in the end he really didn't know how to defend himself.

Although Bai Zhi didn't say much about what happened in the cave, based on his exhausted look, one could guess that he hadn't had an easy time in the past few days.

Ms. Jane believes that she has some ability in judging people.

Although she and Bai Zhi had not known each other for a long time, just these few experiences together were enough for Ms. Jane to see through this taciturn man and his careless self-disguise.

He is strong in force, stubborn, and nosy. He has the face of a fierce villain, but a heart as soft as cotton.

He actually has a good brain and doesn't mind using some tricks to achieve his goals, but there is an "order" in his bones that is like a brand, preventing him from falling and protecting him from the darkness.

There are always some people who, in pursuit of profit, desire, and excitement, actively embrace darkness, and are then assimilated into rotten and smelly mud.

Most people have no choice at all. In order to avoid being drowned in the quagmire, they can only use all means to struggle in the quagmire.

But there are also people like Ms. Jane, who step into the darkness to salvage from the mud more "small fish" who are struggling to survive and have not yet completely rotted.

However, Bai Zhi is neither of them.

He was a gem that was accidentally lost outside. He didn't want to be discovered and picked up, so he took the initiative to cover up his brilliance with mud, trying to disguise himself as an inconspicuous stone.

But in the darkness, any ray of light is extremely eye-catching, let alone someone like him who is the source of light himself.

Bai Zhi was destined to be incompatible with the night.

So it was really hard for Ms. Jane to understand Bai Zhi's intention of getting involved in the underworld.

If he wanted fame and fortune, with Bai Zhi's skills, whether it was the [Void Investigation Association] or the [Public Security Bureau], especially the [Military] that was almost going crazy due to lack of people, he could achieve both fame and fortune "cleanly".

Why bother yourself by getting into this mess?

What's more, he is not alone, without any worries or weaknesses.

After meeting Fu Fu, who was boarding in the Public Security Bureau dormitory, Ms. Jane's confusion about Bai Zhi's choice deepened.

The two people, each with their own thoughts but a delicate relationship, are both thinking about how to get the answers they want from each other.

The train car fell silent again. Only the music on the radio continued, switching to a sad song.

"How on earth did you find the outpost?

And that recording...

How did you associate these outrageous descriptions with me? "Bai Zhi hesitated for a long time, still very concerned about this question.

When Bai Zhi first heard the phrase "online cheating boyfriend", he was shocked to the point of being petrified because he already had a headache, thus missing the best opportunity to ask further questions.

But now that I have calmed down and thought about it, a feeling of worry naturally begins to emerge.

Not to mention the bizarre content of the recording, just based on her identity as [Bai Zhi], Ms. Jane, who should have nothing to do with [Bai Yu]'s friends, should not have any intersection with Susan at all, even though Ms. Jane also belongs to the Public Security Bureau.

But how could an ordinary sheriff from the household registration department be involved with a crime consultant who specializes in investigating major criminal cases before he was involved in a major crime?

Let’s not even talk about someone really scamming Susan. Not to mention that with Fu Fu around, the probability of such an outrageous thing happening is zero. Just imagine that Jane Du, a professional undercover agent, would come to deal with online scams?

Even if a scammer defrauds the mayor, the case should not be handed over to the Criminal Investigation Brigade.

The person who came to Susan today was Ms. Jane, who belonged to the good camp, so it is also possible that Bai Zhi’s enemies would come to Susan tomorrow.

So even though he knew that bringing up the topic again after denying his acquaintance with Susan would likely arouse Ms. Jane's suspicion, Bai Zhi still had to ask for clarification.

Only then will he know how to cut off the danger.

"Well~" Ms. Jane couldn't help but curl up her lips when she thought of this. "You know the trouble you caused before. Otherwise, you wouldn't have disappeared for a few days.

But you didn’t think that just because you didn’t show up in the end, everyone would just ignore you, right?

That incident involved the rebels and "traitors" within the military. I'm too lazy to guess what those senior officials were thinking about in order to save face.

But if you think about it carefully, the so-called "traitors" are definitely more than just the few "scapegoats" on the surface.

So guess how many people are looking for you right now as an insider?
