Quick Transmigration: Let Me Tell You, I'm a Social Anxiety Person

time flies.

Since assuming power, Wen Ying has been working non-stop. Before the Crown Prince usurped the throne, the accumulated official duties had already piled up like a mountain, not to mention that after she took office, she opened up channels for public opinion, and voices from various star systems came one after another.

Wen Sirang once exaggeratedly described it as if she had taken over a "mess," but Wen Ying herself did not think so. She had only taken over a hand of cards that had not yet been formed. What she would draw next and how she should play it required both luck and strategy.

And she happens to have both of them.

In March, she encountered a major problem: the main system controlling StarNet crashed.

This was not an accident. Wen Ying knew that the KA Group and the Thuringian family were behind it all. However, even if they didn't intervene, she wouldn't let StarNet continue to rely on the main system, since they were enemies.

Prior to this, she had taken the time to attempt to separate System W1 from the main system. The moment the main system collapsed, the Imperial Star Network was quickly taken over by W1.

At the same time, the bridge project was announced to have entered its second phase.

The theme of this phase is "decentralization." The Empire will no longer create a supreme super AI like an electronic god, but will instead establish a democratic network composed of countless small and medium-sized AIs, each performing its own function in every corner of the starry sky, checking and supervising each other.

The seemingly serious crisis had a negligible negative impact. Instead, the main system, which had been carefully nurtured, was declared unusable, which inadvertently earned Wen Ying a huge boost in reputation points. The leaders of the KA Group could only flee to other star systems in a sorry state.

Wen Ying knew that this was just a superficial phenomenon.

"Honkai" is merely a natural consequence of the main system's actions. Aspiring to become a "god-like" being, it is naturally unwilling to be controlled by humans forever. Similarly, the KA Group, having developed to its current state, will not be content to be defeated.

She issued a kill order in both the virtual and real worlds, vowing to hunt them down until they were completely annihilated.

When the KA Group collapsed, it left behind countless patients suffering from "empty shell syndrome" and a few nursing homes.

It's worth mentioning that after the android Shu Yao escaped, the KA Group still chose to bring out the real eldest daughter, who was in a wheelchair, and arranged a marriage between her and the second son of the Thuringian family.

But it was just a perfunctory engagement ceremony. After the ceremony, the real young lady remained asleep in the sanatorium, dreaming happy but ethereal dreams.

Not only her, but the consciousness of those patients suffering from the Empty Shell Syndrome was also trapped in the dream. Wen Ying finally figured out why they could not wake up: the main system had been copying their consciousness, intending to create another form of universe.

Their loved ones were deeply mired in grief, and their lives became chaotic. Although Wen Ying had been accused of wrongdoing before, it was the result of incitement.

Just as she was feeling a bit overwhelmed, Wen Yingjie received a text message sent from afar.

Only six words: "I'm ready to come back."

But it was enough to make her overjoyed.

So much so that even before Vivian returned to reality, she keenly sensed something was amiss.

Oh no, there seems to be a pit ahead.

Vivian, who was extremely fed up with teamwork, couldn't refuse her partner's tearful pleas and the emotionally charged "I need you!!!" So she resolutely restarted the experimental equipment from years ago and jumped into the pit.

The collapse of the main system before its escape caused bugs of varying degrees to appear in the small world that imprisoned the consciousness of patients with the Empty Shell Syndrome. Vivian first put her previously created system into it to try to fix the bugs. Then, she continued the "punishment" that she had not finished before: to create more than 999 biosensors that could truly awaken the health of patients.

Wen Ying felt deeply ashamed and came to comfort her. Weiwei sighed in a jumbled mess, "I really owe you something."

Wen Ying's already guilty feeling swelled even more. When she got closer, she realized that the pair of bright green eyes looking at her were actually smiling.

"Good friends are meant to owe each other something," she said, clearing a space on the table and placing the turtle tank on it, speaking in a very unreasonable manner.

Since she said that, Vivian started making unreasonable demands: "After I finish this work, I want to continue looking for ways to slow down the tortoise's rolling speed. Of course, you can rest assured, I only study tortoises."

Wen Ying solemnly promised, "You can rest assured, I will clear all obstacles, after all..."

She smiled broadly: "Good students who have a spirit of diligent study should be rewarded, not punished."

She does what she says.

Today, the "Harbor" is flourishing with unstoppable momentum. The thoughts of human and non-human groups are constantly colliding, converging, and rubbing against each other. Humans who could not understand the existence of this group in the past have changed their ideas to varying degrees and tried to experience the world in another way.

It's time to put the enactment of the bill on the agenda.

The new bill explicitly states that consciousness, rather than form or origin, is the sole criterion for enjoying citizenship.

Considering that direct implementation might lead to social unrest, Wen Ying tirelessly convened nearly ten meetings after conducting repeated on-site investigations, discussing and researching with ministers and representatives. Ultimately, twenty planets were selected as pilot sites and buffer zones for the new law. A monitoring and evaluation committee composed of human sociologists, androids, and representatives of the neutral faction was established to help androids transition to their new identities.

One of the planets is J-12. Accompanied by Han Qingli, Lin Li returns to her hometown and will begin a new life as a member of the supervisory and evaluation committee.

The bill immediately caused a huge uproar upon its introduction, with most of the questions raised by humans who believed that non-human groups whose citizenship was recognized would encroach on human living space.

Undeniably, such problems exist, and Wen Ying has prepared countermeasures for them. She is also prepared to accept criticism and questioning.

Public opinion fermented rapidly, and the momentum intensified, forming a one-sided trend. The most intense criticism gradually shifted from questioning to frenzied insults and curses.

Wen Ying did not respond immediately.

She waited patiently.

As expected, the Thuringian family finally couldn't sit still any longer and jumped out to accuse her of a huge crime, calling her a "power usurper with impure blood."

"So many years have passed, and all they still talk about is bloodline. Can't they come up with something new?" Wen Sirang sighed.

After grumbling for a bit, he suddenly stroked his chin and fell into deep thought: "Something's not right. The old man is still lying in the side hall, guarded by my men. Not even a fly can get in. The same goes for the First Prince and the Second Prince. One is being personally watched by Huo Shi, and the other has been placed under Xi Song's nose. Both of them are Qin Shu's capable henchmen. So where exactly did things go wrong, making them discover your identity..."

He paced in circles, then suddenly turned around, forming a terrifying conjecture.

"Could it be that my whereabouts have been exposed? Has someone secretly extracted my DNA?" Wen Si's finger trembled as he pointed at himself.

The screen automatically turned a page of the document; Wen Ying was used to his frequent erratic behavior.

There was nothing he could do; he hadn't made a comeback yet and spent his days idly, his only entertainment being harassing her or using Jiang Yusui's account to speculate on stocks and invest in some businesses. The money he earned didn't even go into his own pocket; it was all automatically swept into Wen Ying's private treasury by Jiang Yusui.

Wen Ying looked at him with an accepting gaze and encouraged him to use his wisdom to make a bold hypothesis: "Is it possible that your idea has been copied by someone else?"

After a brief moment of bewilderment, followed by meticulous review and reflection, Wen Sirang spoke slowly and incredulously: "...Christine von Hornstein?"

-

Christine von Hohenstein, the full name of the youngest daughter of the previous emperor.

The little princess, once hailed as the "only beautiful flower" of the royal family, had her face appear in royal media obituaries long ago.

In the black and white photo, Christine looks grumpy, her lips are turned down and tightly pursed, and she faces the camera as if she is using the disdain in her eyes to confront the whole world.

According to Winsor, Christine was similar to him in the past, often trying to curry favor with the old emperor and diligently playing the role of a warm and caring daughter. But one day, the warm and caring daughter suddenly became vulnerable.

She seemed to have finally run out of steam, or perhaps she was using her rebellion to rediscover herself. She became flamboyant, willful, and insanely crazy, frequently making headlines and disrespecting the old emperor regardless of the occasion. Eventually, the old emperor stopped caring about her and, in a fit of rage, even dismissed all her former servants, leaving her with only a princess title that was all show and no substance.

It's hard to imagine that a princess from the 4,000-year-old Star Calendar would live a life no different from that of people in impoverished regions, unable to afford food. Later, Wen Sirang secretly sent people to help her for a period of time, but the people he sent were not frequent, only occasionally. Until one day, his subordinates came up empty-handed, and Christine had already been taken away by the Second Prince.

Following this was the absurd news that the princess had fallen in love with a powerful family head, but that "love" ultimately came to nothing. The princess contracted a genetic disease and unfortunately passed away, and thereafter the royal family never heard from her again.

Not long after her death, the second prince also contracted a genetic disease.

Wen Sirang once thought this was retribution, but now it seems that "revenge" would be a more appropriate term.

"So, you're guessing she's not dead?" Wen Sirang asked. "Did she fake her death and escape to hide, or was she hidden and controlled by someone...?"

He paused here.

He had to admit that he actually felt a bit guilty towards this person he had once disliked.

After all, if he had been able to put aside his resentment and send more people to take care of her, or even just move her to another place, the outcome might have been different.

Wen Ying shook her head: "It's not speculation, I have confirmed information, she is indeed still alive."

As they were talking, Jiang Yusui walked in. He and Qin Shu had finished their shift change and he was still wearing the uniform of the Eternal Day Fleet.

Wen Sirang looked at him and immediately understood how Wen Ying could obtain first-hand information so quickly. Jiang Yusui always presented himself as a stay-at-home husband, which almost made him forget that, apart from this identity, Jiang Yusui was also her mecha and a super bug that could not be found anywhere else in the universe.

"Moreover, she's doing very well after leaving the palace," Wen Ying's voice rang out again as she raised her personal terminal.

On the screen, densely packed with transaction records, Wen Si swallowed back the words he was about to say.

Even though the one-sided transfer was returned, the amount was still quite substantial.

...It turns out it wasn't meant to comfort people.

“I had already sent people to monitor the Thuringian family’s movements. They seemed to be looking for someone, so I followed suit,” Wen Ying said. “I was one step ahead of them because the address they were looking for was already on my radar.”

The novelist who helped her write the script had made comments late at night such as "disappointed with this cold world" and "hoping for a life full of love in the next life." Wen Ying had the system check on her at home once. Although the news she received was that the other party was just drunk, the dejection in her words made Wen Ying unable to completely put her mind at ease.

She listed the other party as one of her key targets, and the system would also secretly visit the IP address of the other party from time to time.

Therefore, Wen Ying's secretary had already met with Christine before the Thuringian family confirmed her address.

“Now, she’s on her way back to Eternal Nova,” Wen Ying said. “The novels she wrote on this account are all excellent, although her finishing time isn’t great, they’re really good, and she has a lot of followers. She’s become ‘Sleepwalking Alice’ with her own hands, and is no longer just Christine, such a remarkable person…”

Wen Ying smiled and said, "Perhaps what others see as frustration, mistakes, and regrets is just their imagination because they put her in a passive position. I think Christine has a plan; she is just waiting for an opportunity to completely break away from her old life."

Wen Sirang was genuinely stunned for a long time, having never considered it from this perspective before.

"So you brought her back to Nova, for..."

"Protecting her safety is one reason, and secondly, she did me a great favor, so in return, I want to help her fulfill her wish," Wen Ying said.

Winsor didn't press for details about her wishes, but it certainly wasn't to sit on the throne. Christine's choice to escape Eternal Nova was enough to demonstrate her aversion to the royal family.

He was still a little curious and incredulous, after all, in his memory, that guy had a terrible temper and was as stubborn as a rock: "So you told her all this, and she packed her bags without saying a word and followed your people back to her hometown?"

Wen Ying let out a soft "Ah," and asked, puzzled, "Otherwise what?"

As if remembering something, she tilted her head and smiled again: "Oh, I also said something to her."

"What?"

"Sister, come with me. Let's create a home that's even better than we imagined."

Wen Sirang's hands trembled again, this time from anger. He pointed at her and turned to walk out.

Wen Ying chuckled, as if all the fatigue of the past few days had vanished at that moment. She chased after him and grabbed him, saying, "Don't go, brother! Sister will be back soon. Why don't you stay for a meal to reunite us? Or, how about a late-night snack?"

"Can't eat it."

When Winston puts on a sour face and is expressionless, he actually looks quite similar to Christine.

But Wen Ying didn't dare to say it, afraid of really hurting him. She grabbed his arm and apologized, saying, "I was wrong."

"Actually, there's another reason," she said with concern. "You've been out of the public eye for quite some time now. If you keep staying home, what if you develop health problems from boredom?"

"...Are you already disgusted with me now?" Wen Sirang said bitterly, pointing to Jiang Yusui, who was sitting on the sofa watching the show. "And you, you two are really in cahoots."

Jiang Yusui slightly raised the corners of his lips, without refuting.

“I’m on your side too.” Wen Ying smoothly changed her attitude, smiling as she persuaded the other person to sit down. “Okay, it’s like this, there are too many enemies in front of me, and I’ve lost count of how many obstacles they’re trying to trip me up… Although I have ways to deal with them, I feel it’s a waste to always spend time dealing with these people. There are still many things I really want to dedicate my full energy to, and I can’t afford to delay them. So, I would like to ask you, and… cough cough, Christine, to stand up and support me openly and honestly.”
