Chapter 7 Leaving the Floating Island
【Gu Xi, experiment number 042. 】

[Identity information before the experiment: unknown]

Su Chen was shocked by the woman in front of him.

The equipment on the floating island has never been so intuitively bound to a "living person".

As far as he could remember, he had only heard of some of the previous experimental numbers appearing outside the floating island by his predecessors.

"Okay, don't give me that expression that says, who am I, where am I?" He put out the cigarette in his hand.

Put yourself in their shoes. Most people would not be able to come out of the fantasy they have created in their laboratory.

"There is something called déjà vu, and as a mentor of the floating island, I can certainly see more than you ordinary people."

Su Chen seemed a little proud and motioned for Gu Xi to examine his entire body.

That's right, the man in front of him named Su Chen, whether in terms of clothing, words and deeds, is more noble than ordinary people.

At least it's more precious than the shabby clothes I wear now.

Earrings, a scarf around the neck.

Well-cut uniforms.

And uniform shoes with shiny leather.

There is also a logo printed on the armband, which seems to be the unique metal logo of Floating Island Academy.

She had seen it before in her scumbag ex.

"Okay, stop showing off. I believe you for now." From the time Gu Xi opened his eyes until now, he has almost used up all his strength.

Now I just feel empty, both my brain and body are empty.

Gu Xi forced himself to stay awake despite his tired body.

She looked at the slightly ostentatious man in front of her, her heart full of doubts.

How on earth did he manage to create those illusions just now?
Su Chen seemed to see what she was thinking. The corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a mysterious smile.

"You must be curious about how I know this. Don't worry, I will tell you slowly later."

He walked gracefully to a chair nearby and sat down, crossing his legs. He continued, "This is the Floating Island, a place full of mystery and unknowns. I just saw from my system that your number is 042, and your name is also there, but other information has not been shown to me for the time being."

Gu Xi frowned, "What? You also have a system? Why was my previous identity information unknown?"

Su Chen smiled softly, "This is the mystery of the floating island. That's because before entering the floating island, everyone's memories before adulthood were temporarily sealed, including mine, so I can only see this much."

"Seal the memory? Why do I need to do this? Not only is my number 042, but does it mean that I am the last number?" Gu Xi felt uneasy.

"To ensure the fairness and security of people's survival. If everyone carries the memories and prejudices of the past, it may affect the development of the floating island. I'm just guessing. But the fact that you were able to pass the level just now is equivalent to seeing part of your own memory? At least it's better than me." Su Chen smiled bitterly.

Gu Xi was silent for a moment, then asked, "Then the floating island system was damaged by unknown creatures this time. Was it also caused by your laboratory instructors?"

Su Chen stood up, walked to the window, looked at the ruined scene outside, and did not answer her question. "The existence of floating islands is to explore the future of mankind. At least that's what I was taught before."

Gu Xi was shocked. She had never thought that she would be involved in such an incident. She just wanted to be a salted fish. "Then what should I do?"

"It's simple, just follow your instincts. It's no coincidence that I was brought here." Su Chen turned around, his eyes full of expectation. "Okay, it's getting late. Pack up and let's go to the floating island laboratory to see if there's a way to escape. It's very dangerous outside. Some ancient experimental creatures have been thawed and taken out."

"I don't think we can go to the laboratory. Since the source came from there, we can't go back there." Gu Xi insisted.

She followed Su Chen's gaze into the distance. The dilapidated scene outside the street forced her to not become a salted fish.

It seems that this place is not a good place to stay.
Su Chen sighed, "Okay, since you insist so much, I won't stop you. But I do know that the floating island is called a floating island because it floats in the air. The real Lingdu is very big. If you really want to get out of the floating island, I have a way."

Hearing this, Gu Xi perked up, but her worries came back.

"When you take me out this time, you don't want to exchange something from me, right? My spirit can't stand your torture." Gu Xi was speechless.

She was really hungry.

Without waiting for Su Chen to give her feedback, she turned and went to the stove.

The gas on the stove was lit.

I took some water from the pipe and boiled it in a pot.

After it boiled for a while, she used the noodles that the system had just rewarded her with, opened the bag and put a noodle pancake in it.

Su Chen saw the woman in front of him cooking skillfully and she didn't look like an experimental subject at all.

More excited indeed.

"You can also cook noodles? Don't worry, I was originally looking for this immersive equipment. However, since this equipment is bound to you and has your code, I will naturally not steal it."

As he spoke, he stared at the fragrant and soft instant noodles in Gu Xi's pot.

After boiling, Gu Xi put two eggs in the noodles.

She only eats runny eggs.

"Please do me a favor. There are two bowls next to you. If you haven't eaten yet, you can eat together." Gu Xi said.

What I was thinking was, it's enough that you didn't ask for the equipment back from me. If I can give you some benefits in exchange for such good equipment, why not do it?
The two of them started slurping the steaming noodles.

They ate noodles face to face in silence.

Su Chen looked up: "Oh, by the way, it's not easy to leave the floating island. I suggest that we observe the situation and improve our physical fitness. Because I haven't been there either, but I heard that it's really dangerous out there. If you don't mind, can you let me stay here for two nights?"

Gu Xi: ???
What kind of person is this? So shameless that not only does a grown man come to my door, but he also wants to stay here?

"No. Because you just said that you live next door. Please go back next door and rest." She replied coldly.

Su Chen's embarrassed face instantly turned red to his ears. He didn't expect that the woman in front of him still remembered the fake reason he mentioned first that she lived next door.

As expected of No. 042, her thinking is so meticulous! It makes him look at her with new eyes!
At this moment, Su Chen looked at Gu Xi like an artist admiring his muse, and his pupils seemed to be emitting stars.

Gu Xi deliberately avoided his gaze. After spending a short time together, although she didn't trust anyone, she felt that the man in front of her didn't have much fighting ability, so she could put her mind at ease for the time being.

It would be good to take a break.
