Is it really normal to contain these anomalies?

'Yes...it...is in this well before us.'

"It was it that extracted those Abnormalities, and it was it that brought Terraria and the Foundation to me."

He suddenly wanted to reach out and salvage this thing. He had to get it back, otherwise...

But he had delayed too long.

Before Bai Yu realized it, his consciousness had been dragged back to reality to a certain extent.

His hands just grasped at the air in the ward in vain.

"Boss, good evening. It's 4:36 AM now. You've been unconscious for 32 hours. I've told you long ago that we don't recommend staying up late to work overtime..."

Little Angela's voice echoed in his ears.

This scene seems familiar...

But this time, before Bai Yu even had time to feel any discomfort in his body, he sat up and the needle shifted due to the violent movement.

A slight sting emanated from his wrist.

And this little bit of pain became the last straw that broke the camel's back.

Bai Yu covered his cheeks tightly with his hands, his expression was extremely annoyed, everything he just experienced was so real.

Therefore, the feeling of missing out on the truth was even more difficult for him to accept than actual death.

"Supervisor? What are you doing?"

Little Angela didn't know what Bai Yu saw when he was near death. The incomprehensible words became the only understandable tone.

"Sorry, little Angela, don't say anything yet, let me calm down..."

Bai Yu gritted his teeth.

Now he just wanted to try his best to calm himself down.

But he suddenly found that there was no need for him to do so, because at this moment, a line of small blood-red words appeared belatedly in the darkness before his eyes.

That was the system panel, and it was also a new task after nearly half a month.

【Task: Find your well

Mission successful: ???

Mission failed: ???]

"Heh... I actually have such a system."

Bai Yu exhaled a breath of foul air from his lungs, and what he had seen in his consciousness before finally became a reality.

He doesn't need to deny or escape, that's his well.

Even though he didn't know why the well could exist at the same time as he himself, and what exactly was lost in the well.

Chapter 186: Feelings (Changed, please refresh)

He had to figure out what was going on.

Bai Yu slowly lay down from the bed, and finally moved his fingers away from his face.

He saw the white ceiling of the infirmary still illuminated, and the blue pupils finally regained their composure.

Why did he himself have all sorts of memetic contamination on everyone around him, why did these strange phenomena from other worlds keep appearing around him, why did he regress when he died for the first time...

He had to figure out what was going on.

No matter whether he chooses to leave here and go home, stay in the city as a stationmaster, or return to the foundation to become an agent.

He couldn't make any of these choices with his incomplete self.

"It's all related to that well," Bai Yu murmured as he gradually relaxed.

He actually knew exactly where to find the well.

There is only one place where it is clear that a well exists.

Lobotomy Corporation Headquarters.

-----------------

The next day, Bai Yu had already put on his clothes and stood up.

HOD hesitated for a moment, then asked.

"Bai Yu, why don't you rest for a while?"

"No problem. Just have some confidence in your elite employees, Ms. HOD."

"Someone is very worried about you."

"I know," Bai Yu buttoned the last button of his suit, "I'll explain it to Komini and the others later. After all, I collapsed in front of them, so they must have been scared."

I'm not talking about them...

The HOD in the holographic projection stood aside with a bitter look on his face, not knowing what to say.

She still remembered Angela's restless look.

HOD never thought he would see any expression other than smile and calmness on the face of this most outstanding AI.

It was just after get off work and Angela had just learned that Bai Yu had fainted. She no longer cared about the prohibitions and rushed directly into her lounge in the training department.

The slender fingers tightly grasped her metal shell, and then kept questioning her in an almost collapsed tone with words like "What's wrong with Bai Yu?!"

It was as if, as the leader of the W-0001 branch, she had an unshirkable responsibility for Bai Yu's sudden fainting...

And in the following fifty years at Lobotomy Corporation, Angela never forgot to ask every day...

"It's Angela... She's worried about you."

Now, looking at Bai Yu who was about to leave and go back to work, HOD finally explained with some hesitation.

"Well...she made a recording, I think you'd better listen to it..."

Angela?

Bai Yu's face was obviously a little surprised, and then he sighed.

The next second after he heard HOD's explanation, he felt that he knew what Angela was thinking.

What else could it be?

It could only be that transaction.

At that time, he promised to help Angela break the endless cycle of reincarnation.....and if he died, the deal would be invalidated, and there would be no one to help her speed up the reincarnation.

"Ms. HOD, please tell Angela that if necessary, I can return to the headquarters at any time to help her with the containment..."

Bai Yu spoke slowly, but his words were interrupted by a recording that suddenly started playing.

"Bai Yu, when you hear this recording, it proves that you have woken up..."

"Sure enough, Bai Yu, you won't die, right... You promised me that you would free me from this endless cycle of reincarnation..."

"I won't allow you to die! Absolutely not! Bai Yu, you only belong to me..."

"Otherwise, next time, I will keep you forever... Yes, I should have done this a long time ago. You should always stay by my side until this damn cycle ends..."

After several minutes, the audio finally ended.

There was suddenly a hint of awkwardness in the air.

"..."

Bai Yu's face was a little dull, and HOD beside him was also a little embarrassed.

Is there something wrong with the way this discourse unfolds?

After all, compared to a one-time recording, this passage is more like a collection of Angela's lonely soliloquy over thousands of years.

She declared again and again in the dark room - Bai Yu is her property?!

The corners of Bai Yu's mouth twitched.

It's not like the first time he met Angela, he couldn't understand why Angela became like this.

After all, Angela had only suddenly found someone like him who understood her in these hundreds of thousands of years, so it was normal for her to want to rely on him.

But the reliance in these words was a little too much, which made him feel terrified when he thought about it carefully... It felt like Angela had become a sickly and delicate person.

Not that much...

Bai Yu thought for a few minutes, and finally spoke after sighing softly.

"Ms. HOD, please thank Angela for me..."

Bai Yu didn't want Angela to have any special feelings for him.

If she hadn't killed Kuisi and many of his friends in the queen bee accident, he would have chosen to hug the little girl abandoned by her father.

After all, she was just a sin in Ain's grand plan, and could even be said to be the most pitiful pawn.

but....

Bai Yu slowly lowered his eyes. He was just an employee of the branch and had witnessed the tragic deaths of many of his colleagues among the queen bees.

Because of this, he could not accept the dependence and emotions of the murderer who caused the death of his colleague.

He chose to help Angela because he hoped that she would not kill more people because of a momentary impulse, and that she would establish correct values instead of being assimilated by the city.

Apart from that, he had no other thoughts about Angela except pity.

Bai Yu sincerely hoped that she could escape reincarnation faster, free herself from this million-year cycle, and gain the freedom she wanted in the city... and by then, she would no longer need him.

"Well... also tell Angela that Bai Yu won't die so easily, and she will definitely be free. After all, I promised her in the past..."

Bai Yu smiled calmly. Gradually he figured out his thoughts and no longer hesitated.

The conversation was almost over, and he finally nodded to HOD in apology.

"That's all, Ms. HOD. If there's anything else, I'll leave now."

The man carrying the buttress left, and then there was a light slam of the door closing.

Only Miss HOD was left at the scene, but her holographic projection was not turned off immediately.

"Um, Angela...you heard everything..."

She stood there and asked the person next to her in a low voice.

After all, just a few seconds later, another work of the headquarters was completed.

And Angela came to her as usual.

"Um..."

Also in this small room at the headquarters, Angela nodded slowly.

"Haha, I'm so glad Baiyu is okay."

Seeing Angela so calm, the gentle HOD finally breathed a sigh of relief.

After all, even though she had not experienced much rich emotional exchanges in her first life, she could see that Angela's feelings for Bai Yu were definitely not normal.

It was a heavy burden day after day.

It even feels like Angela will go completely crazy if she loses Bai Yu...

Chapter 187 Flowers (Changed, please refresh)

"Now, Miss Angela should be back to normal..."

The kind-hearted HOD would naturally think so optimistically.

After all, Angela was only worried about Bai Yu. Now that Bai Yu on the surface has recovered his health, Angela can also let go of such a heavy feeling, right?

Hmm...should?

HOD looked at Angela quietly, but found that she did not respond for a long time.

"Angela, let's go back to our workstations and rest... As AIs, we need to replenish our energy every day..."

She extended her robotic arm and gently shook Angela's soft artificial skin.
