The backdrop can also be propped up.
Chapter 325 Parliament 8
"Have you considered this possibility?" Lu Renkui glanced at the quiet Melissa and Chengmen Qin, and asked tentatively.
In fact, Cheng Menqin and Melissa had considered whether someone was sabotaging them, causing their missions to fail.
However, both of them were quite busy at the time—because they needed to earn enough points as soon as possible to get first or second place and go home—and because they had similar tempers and would start arguing after a few words, they never had a chance to calmly discuss the matter that had caused their feud.
"Hmm... how about we look in this direction first? Maybe it really is a misunderstanding?" Lu Renkui said, turning to ask the system WQBYRZM, "System, do you know any evidence that could prove they didn't frame each other?"
Hearing Lu Renkui ask this question, the system WQBYRZM snapped its fingers: "That's simple. Just call 0814 and 0733 over and have them retrieve the mission records from that world, then draw a timeline and compare them."
"Great idea!" Lu Renkui clapped his hands, glanced at Melissa and Cheng Menqin, and seeing that the two of them did not object, he turned to find System 0733 and System 0814.
Then, System 0814 and System 0733 engaged in a book-throwing battle on the spot—specifically, the two threw books at each other, not only hitting each other's heads but also accidentally hitting the heads of the systems and hosts watching the spectacle.
Lu Renkui stared blankly at the scene before her, then casually caught the three books that flew toward her.
After receiving the three books, Lu Renkui came to her senses and turned to ask the system WQBYRZM, "Is this normal?"
“It’s normal, it’s basic operation,” the system WQBYRZM shrugged. “Although I’ve never encountered such a large-scale scenario before, my boss told me that our company is a very open and inclusive company, and we strongly oppose workplace bullying and other such phenomena.”
"So this has something to do with the two of them fighting in public?" Lu Renkui pressed his forehead.
“Of course there is,” the system WQBYRZM continued to explain to Lu Renkui, “So our boss said that if there is any irreconcilable conflict, we can just fight it out on the spot. Anyway, we are all in virtual avatars, so we won’t get hurt. It’s just that our bodies might hurt a little.”
“I had seen you several times before I found this host, so it’s normal.”
"Your company's style... is quite natural, huh?" Lu Renkui racked his brains for a while before finally managing to utter a less offensive remark. "So... are we going to wait until those two finish fighting?"
“Then you can’t just go in and stop them,” System WQBYRZM pointed to the books flying everywhere, and used the blue screen to swat away some of the ones that accidentally flew towards him.
"I have to say, these two hosts really do resemble their systems," System WQBYRZM remarked to Lu Renkui as it watched the books fluttering in the air.
"It shouldn't be too similar, right? You see, no matter what, Melissa and Chengmenqin didn't fight, did they?" Lu Renkui took another book, looked at what was written in it out of curiosity, and then found that it was blank.
"Have they always been like this?" Lu Renkui asked, watching the escalating battle. "And aren't the people around trying to get out of the way? Doesn't it hurt if they accidentally get hurt?"
"Anyway, my physical body in the real world won't be harmed, so I just came to watch the show." System WQBYRZM answered Lu Renkui's second question first, and then addressed the question Lu Renkui had raised first.
"The conflict between the two of them is said to have been brewing for a long time, and it's not just a matter of the two current hosts having a grudge." System WQBYRZM began to recount all the information it had dug up from their company's internal forum.
“These two people had a conflict when they joined the company—when they joined, the boss would pick a few outstanding people to give a speech about their personal journey, and these two speeches were exactly the same.”
"This was just an accident, right? And then it escalated into this argument?" Lu Renkui frowned. Although the speeches were the same, which was a bit embarrassing—the person who went up later would definitely be very embarrassed—it was basically just something to laugh about.
"Not only that, it seems that the two of them went on their first mission in the same world," System WQBYRZM continued to recall the gossip she saw on the internal forum, "It is said that 0733 and her first host transmigrated into a young lady."
"But 0814, along with his first host, transmigrated into the body of a young master, whose family was in conflict with that of the young lady."
"The two men's mission targets are the fourth female character and the third male character. The fourth female character died in the desert with resentment because of the male protagonist, while the third male character became a severely disabled person because of the female protagonist."
"Originally, their task was to dismantle these two bizarre romantic relationships, but unexpectedly, due to their overly coincidental actions, the fourth female lead and the third male lead both fell in love with the second male lead. Then, with the help of the third male lead and the fourth female lead's family power, the second male lead successfully killed the male lead and the female lead and became the emperor himself."
"Although they completed the mission without major incident, they only received half the points because they caused the protagonist's death."
"Ah, this..." Lu Renkui really didn't expect there to be such a thing.
"Actually, it's not just about these things." System 1143 had brought her host along to watch the fierce battle between System 0814 and System 0733, and added the information she knew.
“Their conflicts aren’t just from when they were doing missions,” System 1143 waved her magic wand, and a small light screen like the surface of water popped up, showing the two fighting. “Getting food, giving speeches on stage… they’re fighting over so many things.”
"Based on the data I've obtained, I've seen them fight 8 times in other worlds and 40 times offline." System 4352 also arrived at this moment, tapping and banging on his tablet a few times, and a series of data appeared on the tablet.
System 4352 showed the tablet to someone else, “According to my calculations, the two of them basically argue whenever they meet, and start fighting at the slightest disagreement.”
"...Is this normal?" Lu Renkui asked again.
“Normal,” Systems 4352, 1143, and WQBYRZM said in unison.
This was the first time Hu Xiaohai had ever seen such an intense battle. Before this, the most intense battle he had ever seen was one time when it rained and the ground was all muddy. Before he knew it, the children in his class ran out, picked up the mud, and started a mud fight.
He'd seen similar book-throwing games in high school, where students would throw thin notebooks at each other to release stress. But isn't it dangerous to conjure up something as thick as a dictionary?! It looks like it could kill someone!
This was the first time Shangguan Chenxi had ever witnessed such a vibrant scene (books flying everywhere). She stood there, like a piece of wood, watching the books flying around in the air.
Cheng Menqin and Melissa took a step back in perfect unison, then turned their heads away, refusing to watch their own systems fight.
"Is there really no way to stop them?" Lu Renkui was getting anxious. She wanted the two systems to stop fighting as soon as possible, bring up the timeline, and let them figure out if there was a misunderstanding between Cheng Menqin and Melissa.
If so, let these two put aside their differences, redeem their wishes as soon as possible, detach themselves from their host identities, and have their names removed from the leaderboard, so that others will have a chance to return to their world.
System WQBYRZM also noticed Lu Renkui's anxiety. Thinking that it also had to help the host complete the mission as soon as possible, it conjured up two blue screens, gritted its teeth, and inserted the two blue screens between System 0733 and System 0814.
In the middle of the fight, a person suddenly jumped out, which startled both System 0814 and System 0733. The two systems stopped throwing books in their hands and looked at the system holding the blue screen standing between them with slight surprise.
After a series of clattering sounds as books slammed against the blue screen, the system WQBYRZM cautiously peeked its head out from behind the screen: "You guys are done, right?"
"I'm done fighting. Is there anything else?" System 0814 asked. System WQBYRZM's sudden interruption calmed him down a bit, and then he realized what he had just done.
System 0733 also tidied her long, blue curly hair, wondering what System WQBYRZM was up to by rushing in and trying to get their attention.
"Did you take your current host to an ancient world before? Could you please pull up the timeline of the missions from that world and take a look? This is quite important to us," System WQBYRZM made her request.
“Sure, sure,” System 0733 said, while starting to look for the notebook containing the timeline of that mission. “But what do you need this for?”
"Well, of course we'll help sort this out. If it really is a misunderstanding, then we can get your host to shake hands and make peace." System WQBYRZM shrugged. "It's also troublesome to keep occupying the first or second place here all the time."
