I am weak and friendly

Chapter 147 It turns out that this world is full of [the weak].

Because he had stayed up most of the night before, Tang Yiping didn't get up until the afternoon of the next day.

He had just woken up when he saw Stoka bite his slipper and bring it to his feet, then push the wheelchair next to the bed with her nose.

"Thank you, Stoka," Tang Yiping said. "Sorry I slept until now, you must be starving."

"Awoo." Stoka barked, which Tang Yiping didn't understand, but its expression seemed to say "No, no."

Even cattle and horses can't complain about being hungry.

Hunger was just a test for him.

That's right, Tang Yiping brought Stoka back to his residence.

In fact, ever since Mr. Du Yuanshan passed away, Tang Yiping had been prepared to be kicked out of the house at any time.

After all, once the elderly person dies, their property will be managed by a designated person. Currently, there are no heirs in China, so it may be taken back or handled in other ways.

But no one came.

Everything was as if nothing had happened.

Tang Yiping continued to live here, paying his electricity, water, and gas bills.

With Stoka's husky-like appearance, Tang Yiping found it difficult to worry about any "privacy" issues, so he simply brought Stoka back with him last night.

So, Stokka moved into a big house that Lola had never lived in before.

"Wait a moment, Stoka. I'll take you to get something to eat after I've washed up." Tang Yiping sat in his wheelchair and went to wash up.

Just as he squeezed out the toothpaste, Tang Yiping suddenly turned around and asked, "Wait, Stoka, does the dog need to be washed?"

“Huh?” Stokka tilted his head.

Oh yeah, that guy Stoka, he doesn't have as much experience as I do as he does as a dog, how does he know this?

Dogs probably need to be washed and groomed too.

"Now, let me share one of my toothbrushes with you."

"Woo?"

“As a dog, you still have a lot to learn!” Tang Yiping said.

After Tang Yiping finished brushing Stoka's teeth, he went out.

Along the way, Stoka pulled Tang Yiping with all his might, running at a speed of 15 kilometers per hour.

When I arrived near Qihang Building, it was indeed past closing time.

However, Tang Yiping mainly brought Stoka to the workplace to learn about "oxen and horses." It would be better to learn after get off work, when the lamp burns late into the night and the rooster crows at dawn, which is the perfect time for Stoka to learn about "oxen and horses."

Arriving at the intersection near Qihang Building, Tang Yiping saw a food delivery driver squatting on the ground checking his electric scooter.

It seems there's something wrong with the electric car.

"Ah! It's you?" Tang Yiping's eyes lit up as he looked at the delivery guy.

The delivery guy whose vehicle broke down is the same one who helped Tang Yiping get extra food yesterday.

Although Tang Yiping is quite face-blind, someone had just fed him yesterday.

Tang Yiping has always had a good memory for the people who feed him.

"What a coincidence, I see you again today! Thank you for yesterday! The ribs were especially delicious!" Tang Yiping said.

—[Signature] Successful, [Beacon of Friendship] activated.

Tang Yiping's original intention was not to make overtures, but he was genuinely grateful and happy.

Upon seeing Tang Yiping, the delivery driver laughed, "I drive around here almost every day! It's easier to drive around here at this time... You... walk your dog at this time every day?"

Uh, it's more like a dog is walking me?
I was helping Stoca practice his [Bull and Horse] skills...

Tang Yiping thought to himself.

"What's wrong with the car? Is it broken?"

"It suddenly stopped working. It's probably a loose connection or a short circuit somewhere... I saw an electric bike repair shop not far ahead, but I have several orders coming up, and they're probably all going to be late..."

"Let me see..." Tang Yiping turned to the side and looked at the deliveryman's electric scooter.

"Huh?" Tang Yiping was suddenly taken aback.

"What's wrong?" the deliveryman asked, puzzled.

Tang Yiping did not answer. Because he had seen something he shouldn't have seen.

He saw the [stress swarm].

The swarm of stress insects, distributed not far from the deliveryman's seat, projected a phantom image overlapping with the real object in Tang Yiping's vision, like a group of wriggling silkworms.

Strange, isn't the [Stress Swarm] in my laptop?

Ah, yes, this is another [Stress Swarm].

After all, there isn't just one [Entangled Body].

What a coincidence! We've encountered another swarm of [Stress Worms] here!
However, these weaklings often don't show themselves directly; they need to appear willingly for us to see them.

For example, before, the [Stress Swarm] had been silently repairing my laptop for many days, and I only found out about their existence then.

but now……

Ah, it's the effect of the [Friendly Beacon].

So this is what it means for a friendly person to show themselves to you!
With the [Friendly Beacon] active, can I directly see the weak?

This is too cool!

Thinking this, Tang Yiping reached out and slapped the car seat hard.

This strain of stress worms is even larger than the one in Tang Yiping's notebook.

I wonder if it's because electric vehicles are larger.

As Tang Yiping slapped down, countless stress insects emitted thin, bright rays of light with a "Ah—" sound, outlining the contours of the internal parts before crashing down and turning into corpses.

This also allowed Tang Yiping to vaguely see the internal structure.

It seems... there really is a problem with the connection?

Tang Yiping slapped him hard again.

This time, Tang Yiping captured the location of the cable outlined by the stress insect swarm.

"Plop!" Another swarm of stress insects fell down with a clatter, and then Tang Yiping heard the cheers of the stress insect swarm.

"Beep!" The electric vehicle was powered back on.

The surviving stress worms let out a cheer and then began to multiply rapidly.

No matter how many times he watched it, Tang Yiping felt that these little guys, the [Stress Swarm], were really masochistic; the harder they were hit, the faster they reproduced.

In some ways, they are like real-life versions of the "Stacking Bugs," capable of not only fixing errors and damage in reality but also serving as markers.

Moreover, its ability to perfectly regenerate and even proliferate as long as "repair" can be captured is also very special.

"Ah! It's fixed? Thank you! Thank you!" The delivery guy was extremely surprised.

He didn't expect that Tang Yiping would finish taking the photos in just two shots.

What surprised him even more was that the small act of kindness he showed yesterday afternoon actually helped him a lot.

"If there are any more problems, just take a picture here," Tang Yiping said to the deliveryman, pointing to the area where the [Stress Insect Swarm] was gathered.

"Ah... okay!" The delivery guy looked at Tang Yiping in astonishment. "You're amazing! You knew what was going on just by looking at him?"

Before the delivery driver could say anything more, Tang Yiping waved his hand and said, "Hurry up and deliver the food, or you'll really be late!"

"thanks, thanks!"

Seeing the delivery guy leave in a hurry, Tang Yiping began to look around.

He was curious about where the other "weak" people were, and how his "beacon of kindness" actually worked.

Under the [Friendly Beacon], Tang Yiping found several groups of [Stress Insect Swarms] in less than five minutes, and even found an [Entangled Body].

Are there really so many weak people in this world?
Tang Yiping had always believed that there were very few "weak people" in this world.

After all, Li Chongshan and his team's main task was to follow the users of the "Survival Guide for the Weak" who came to Earth and search for traces of the weak.

It now appears that there are actually quite a few weak people, they are just invisible?

if so……

Tang Yiping felt that his worldview had been completely overturned.
