Quick Transmigration: Saving That Cannon Fodder

Lu Xiao let out a painful howl as System 052 in his mind frantically tried to escape the raging electric current.

[Oh no, oh no, you useless thing, when did he find out about me? You've ruined me!]

052 cursed loudly after being electrocuted, while Lu Xiao was speechless from the shock, her face streaked with tears and snot, feeling as if she were living a life worse than death.

Not far away, the little black cat watched this scene, and in fright, it hid in a corner, speaking to Akahoshi in its mind:

[This is terrifying, absolutely terrifying! He actually figured it out himself. If he catches the commander, we're finished.]

Red Star's comment: [Cowardly Cat, you're a legitimate system. Heaven will protect you, and I, Your Highness, will protect you. What are you afraid of?]

250 recorded everything with his camera: [This shows he truly understands the situation. No wonder he's the protagonist's dominant one; he deduced it before even capturing that wild 052.]

After an unknown amount of time, amidst the crackling sound of electricity, a crystal blue, transparent, toad-shaped object slowly emerged from the top of Lu Xiao's head, while Lu Xiao's head showed no signs of injury.

As soon as the toad emerged, it tried to escape, leaping upwards and immediately falling into a transparent glass dome. The bottom of the dome was quickly sealed, and no matter how much it hopped around, it couldn't get out.

052 was really worried now. It was just a wild system. Even the Heavenly Dao would expel it if it found out, let alone anyone who could save it.

Just as 052 wanted to use the items in the system space, he realized that his space was empty and his points had disappeared.

【Aaaaaaah, my points!!!】

The toad emitted an ultrasonic scream, and 250 in the corner shook its fur and chuckled.

[It all came so easily, I don't even need to deal with you, everything you have is mine, hohohohohohohoho]

【Ahhhh, a legitimate system!!】

The toad shrieked again, and because of the sudden movement, it crashed into the glass cover and fell belly up.

250 let out another villainous laugh, so loud that Akahoshi immediately blocked it out.

250 wasn't angry. He immediately took stock of the stolen items, gold and silver treasures, and the 700,000 points.

These are all ill-gotten gains obtained by the toad helping bad guys, so it's perfectly justified for him to accept them for 250.

To avoid being held accountable, I sent a message to Bai Er, who said that this was a reward from the wild animal capture system.

However, it's rare for the system to be captured by the victim, and Bai Er doesn't intend to get involved.

052 should pay the price it deserves. Only after the victim dies or the wild system breaks down should Bair send someone to take it away.

In less than half a month, System 052 and Lu Xiao were so tormented that they began to bite each other, and finally revealed the whole story.

The world of the book, the main characters' relationship, Lu Xiao's use of the Forgetfulness Curse to interfere in their relationship...

Each story was shocking enough. Huo Jingchen listened to them expressionlessly, sitting there from dusk till dawn.

Facing the rising sun, his silent eyes could no longer shed tears. The phone in his hand displayed a familiar number, but he no longer had the courage to dial it.

They were once the closest people in the world, but now they are destined to never see each other again.

Huo Jingchen didn't kill Lu Xiao. After learning that a ghost from another world actually lived inside her, Huo Jingchen was even less willing to kill her.

He imprisoned her in a sanatorium and tortured her every day; electroshock therapy was just one method. He wanted to make this woman spend the rest of her life repenting and regret coming into this world in the book.

052's situation was similar to hers, except that 052 was locked in a laboratory.

"If you can bring Lu Xiao here, can you also take me back to the past?"

Huo Jingchen's voice was hoarse and flat, and he was unkempt, like a walking corpse.

052 huddled inside the glass enclosure, crying out in despair. He dared not move, for the electric currents all around him threatened to shock him if he touched even the edge.

"Waaaaah, I don't know... Waaaaah, I can't..."

Huo Jingchen's voice was even more somber: "You really don't know? Think about it again, hmm?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the current in the glass intensified, and the toad twitched from the shock.

Huo Jingchen returned to work at the company a month later, and would occasionally appear at the street corner that Liang Qinghe would pass by, just to catch a glimpse of him.

Aside from transferring money to Liang Qinghe's card every month, he never bothered him.

The love that had been suppressed for ten years resurfaced, and Huo Jingchen developed severe insomnia.

When he closes his eyes, all he sees is the image of Qinghe and Chenchen suffering. He feels guilty and in pain, and he has no time to make up for it.

According to Lu Xiao's plot, Qinghe will die, and Chenchen will die.

Huo Jingchen wanted to go back and make amends; 052 was his only hope.

"Since it's a world in a book, why can't I go back?"

He asked this question countless times.

*

Every year, A University sends a group of exchange students abroad, and Liang Yucheng was selected for this spot.

"Are you really going abroad? Ayu, are you going to leave me alone in the country?"

Akahoshi looked at him pitifully.

Liang Yucheng paused for a moment, then nodded: "Xingxing, can I go for a year?"

The more he came into contact with others, the more Liang Yucheng felt that he was incompetent and ignorant. He seized this opportunity to go abroad and wanted to learn more.

He would only leave this once; from now on, he would stay by Xingxing's side. He wanted to give Xingxing the best.

His father's story taught him that he could only rely on himself, and he needed the ability to be with Xingxing legitimately.

Chixing thought he was heartless and cursed inwardly: "You lying little dog."

The day before departure, Akahoshi started throwing a tantrum, ignoring him and preparing his things on her own.

Liang Yucheng went to the airport alone, boarded the plane according to the instructions, and found her seat.

The moment he sat down, he suddenly regretted it.

Thinking to himself that he had been too arrogant and spoiled, he edited an apology message to send to Akahoshi before the plane took off.

Suddenly, a tall figure appeared beside him, and the person sat down next to him, his familiar scent lingering in his nostrils.

Liang Yucheng turned his head to look, and in just one glance, his eyes reddened.

Akahoshi wore a black mask, looking aloof.

"Why are you staring at me like that, sir? Anyone who didn't know better would think we know each other."

It was a familiar voice. Recognizing it was Chi Xing, Liang Yuchen suddenly threw herself into his arms, her voice trembling with fear:

"Sorry, I was wrong."

"You're not wrong, you've just become too independent." Akahoshi subconsciously reached out to hug him back, unwilling to see him sad, yet unable to swallow her anger.

"No, I should have discussed it with you beforehand. If you didn't go, I wouldn't go either."

In hindsight, Liang Yucheng realized that she was becoming more and more inseparable from Chixing, and the fear she had felt earlier when she was traveling abroad alone by plane vanished in an instant.

Seeing that Chi Xing was still ignoring her, Liang Yuchen whispered, "Xingxing, don't be angry."

Akahoshi raised an eyebrow, starting to think of his own advantage: "Then, next time... I'll be in charge."

Understanding the meaning behind his words, Liang Yucheng's ears turned red. Last time, when things got out of control, they couldn't go all the way.

Next time... it's not impossible, he nodded: "I'll listen to you, don't be angry, okay?"
