I am weak and friendly

Chapter 215 Lola's Open-Mindedness (3K)

In Tang Yiping's mind, the image of Lola, like a hungry dog ​​snatching poop, leaping into the swill bucket had already appeared.

Crack! Crack! Crack! This scene is terrifying!

Tang Yiping forcibly controlled his mind, trying not to let his thoughts wander.

Some things, don't overthink, not for others' sake, but for your own.

Moreover, this is utterly inhumane.

Once it's in the slop bucket, is this thing still usable?
Is it still worth keeping?

She's going to live in her own shoe cabinet!

If I had known, why would I have arranged a shoe cabinet for her when I was setting up her nest? Wouldn't the trash can next to the building entrance downstairs have been better? It would have been more spacious.

I was right to realize I was still too humane.

Tang Yiping thought to himself.

and……

Tang Yiping looked at Lola.

This guy... he might have diarrhea.

Regardless of her true form, her prosthetic body is still that of a human.

Those things were actually eaten.

Eating so much obviously moldy food could easily kill you!

Should I call an ambulance to take her to the hospital?
Or... call Lux over?
Lux's ultimate healing spell is still very powerful.

Tang Yiping was still hesitating when he saw Lola turn the snack bag inside out, pour the last crumbs into her mouth, then sniff around the other bags, saying somewhat aggrievedly, "Li Ke Bolen, your snacks are all gone..."

It's not that the snacks are gone, it's that the moldy snacks are gone.

Like a dog, Lola twitched her little nose over the treats, her translucent nostrils flaring slightly as she sniffed them over and over again.

He looked utterly unwilling.

Huh? So, the rest are all good?
Does that mean I don't have to be picky anymore?
While you can't expect too much from expired snacks, it's still quite unpleasant to open a bag of snacks and find that everything inside is spoiled, which can ruin your appetite.

Tang Yiping is, after all, just an ordinary human. Although he has the skill of "eating carrion," he has no intention of actually "eating carrion."

Lola is a true expired food screening machine.

You must treat Lola well.

Wait, I have another bold idea: could it be that I won't need to take out my kitchen waste anymore...?

Ugh, that's disgusting.

Wait a minute, which is more disgusting, eating canned herring or eating kitchen waste? They don't seem to be that different?
Tang Yiping was caught in a philosophical problem and was trapped.

"Sigh... I'm still not full," Lola said. "How can this little bit of food be enough! I'm thinking of changing my class to [Carrion Eater] tomorrow! Rick Boron, could you please get me some more food? I want to change my class tomorrow!"

Tang Yiping: "...Oh no!"

“Aren’t we companions?” Lola asked.

"No."

“We’ve already forged a pact of friendship! I, a quasi-professional, didn’t look down on you for not having learned any skills, and besides, I can thank you!” Lola said. “You really like my prosthetic body, don’t you? I can let you…”

"Stop!" I'm fine with continuing, but one of my friends might not be able to control himself!
Moreover……

Do you know what one hundred tons means?

"Then we should keep eating, keep eating until tomorrow morning..." Lola looked at Tang Yiping's dark expression, "Not morning? Do we have to eat until tomorrow night?"

"It will take 137 years to eat." Tang Yiping said expressionlessly.

“That’s a bit long,” Lola said, looking troubled. “It’s not that long, but it does take a bit longer.”

Tang Yiping: "..."

Well, Tang Yiping, whose lifespan is only a few decades and who doesn't even know if he'll live past 25, and who probably won't be able to retire until he's over 25 even if he does, broke down.

He wanted to pull Lola's real body out of this cybernetic body and then beat him up.

You think you're so great just because you live a long life!
These snacks are so good they'll kill you!

Then he heard Lola say, "Oh, right, I can hide the rest of these snacks and eat them when they go bad."

Tang Yiping was shocked!
Could it be that Lola really is a genius?
Yes, it's better that she's dead.

"Get lost! The rest are mine!" Tang Yiping rushed forward and snatched back his remaining snacks.

“Oh, Rick Boren, you’re so stingy!” Lola said.

"How dare someone who steals other people's food say that!"

"But we're partners! I can give you anything you want! If you want my body..."

Stop!

For the next hour, Tang Yiping kept an eye on Lola, worried that she might have food poisoning.

An hour later, she was still lively and energetic.

Tang Yiping couldn't help but marvel at how powerful the skill [Carrion Eater] truly was.

Even though it's just a prosthetic body, it can still break through physical limitations and prevent the human body from being harmed and attacked by toxins?
Does that mean I... also have this ability?
Why don't you give it a try?
Ugh, that's disgusting.

Never mind, let's give it to Lola.

Lola continued to plead in Tang Yiping's ear, "Li Ke Bolun, please help me find some more food... Li Ke Bolun, please help me find some food... Li Ke Bolun..."

Tang Yiping remained unmoved, simply scrolling through his phone, searching online for shoe cabinet locks, the reinforced kind.

Then Tang Yiping noticed that Lola moved her feet and leaned against him from behind, putting her hands on his shoulders and wrapping them around him.

"What are you doing?" Tang Yiping exclaimed in shock. Could this guy be trying to strangle him from behind and then eat his corpse?
Then his head bumped into something flat.

What is that? Upholstered door panel?

"Li Ke Boren, is this comfortable? Will you take me there?"

Tang Yiping: "??? Take your weapon away!" "I just wanted to make you feel better... I remember you liked it when Lux was like this..." Lola said aggrievedly.

I understand now, you're planning to use your open and honest heart to give me a concussion!
"Okay, okay, I know... I'll go find you something to eat later..." This move was too powerful, and Tang Yiping surrendered.

"I knew it, Li Ke Boren, you're the best! Once I advance, I'll protect you!" Lola patted her chest. "This prosthetic body is still too ugly. I'll take you to our tribe and have the best-looking members of our tribe treat you well!"

For some reason, Tang Yiping's mind was filled with images of countless garbage shredders heading towards him.

Okay, your threat worked. I'm not waiting any longer.

"Let's go, Stoka!" Tang Yiping looked at Stoka beside him.

From the moment she entered, Stoka obediently lay to the side, only daring to breathe softly.

One is a professional who has already quietly advanced to the [Carrion Eater] level, and the other is a prospective [Carrion Eater] who is about to advance to the [Carrion Eater] level. As for him, a weakling who hasn't even learned to ride a [Bull or Horse], he'd better keep quiet.

Just use it as a backdrop.

He was afraid that if he laughed out loud, it would be disrespectful to the distinguished aspiring professionals.

and……

Lola said that Lord Li Ke Boren likes others to use their prosthetic bodies to make him feel comfortable?

Well, it's not impossible for me to do it myself.

Stoka looked down at himself.

Well, he's discovered a new way to get [oxen and horses].

While Tang Yiping was taking Lola out to scavenge expired food from vending machines, Gao Ming got off the plane, got into an inconspicuous black car, drove to a discreet building, was searched by a guard, and arrived at his boss's desk.

"You're back?" His superior looked up at him, then looked down again and said, "Why did it take you so long to come back? Is this difficult?"

"This is my action report, please take a look!" He placed a document on his desk.

"Okay, I'll take a look later." The boss lowered his head. "You should get some rest."

Then they discovered that Gao Ming hadn't left.

"Please take a look at my action report," Gao Ming said.

The boss paused for a moment, then picked up the document.

The document was thick; after reading only a third of the opening summary, the boss looked up at Gao Ming with a suspicious expression.

"I didn't know you could write science fiction."

Gao Ming's expression was serious.

The boss looked down again, glancing at one page, two pages, three pages, and then slower and slower.

He looked up at Gao Ming again, who was still looking at him with a serious expression.

"So, the day you contacted me and asked me about the Dragon Group, was it because of this?"

"Ah."

The boss continued looking back, his brows furrowing deeper and deeper.

"So, you think this Tang Yiping is... an important figure in this organization... the Dragon Group?"

"Yes."

The boss continued reading.

"So, that Fan Zhihong... he really went through time?"

Gao Ming nodded earnestly.

"Hiss..." The boss looked at Gao Ming, "What I'm thinking now is, should I force you to undergo treatment..."

"I'd like to apply too, but I don't even trust myself."

The boss glanced down; there were only two pages left.

This is all too outrageous... it doesn't even seem like a fabrication.

"So, that's all? This report was finished yesterday, what... are they doing now?"

"Tang Yiping told me that he had a clue that he suspected a vending machine company called Touchpoint Interconnect was related to negative entropy monitoring."

The boss waited quietly for him to continue.

"But I checked and there is no such company as Touchpoint Interconnect. There are no records of it in the network, institutions, files... This company should not exist at all."

Then he handed me a stack of photos.

The image above shows a nameplate, along with photos of vending machines from various angles and close-ups of the nameplate.

"Tang Yiping said he found a clue and will investigate it in a couple of days."

"I understand." The boss waved his hand and said, "You go and rest for a bit, I'll... take a look."

As soon as Gao Ming left, the boss took out his landline and made a call: "Old Gu! Have you ever heard of an organization called the Dragon Group... No, no, not from a novel, but a real one... Are you saying I'm crazy? Old Gu, you're not planning to keep this from me, are you? You're not being honest, are you? Haven't you kept this from me enough times? Am I not high enough in rank to listen to you? Don't force me to submit an application! Really not? Really not? Okay, I understand..."

"Pah! That old Gu!" The boss slammed the phone down, clearly very angry.

You're keeping this from me, aren't you? You're just playing around like this, aren't you? You're not sharing information, are you?
Watch how I deal with you!

Just wait for me!

He glanced down at the report in his hand, then made another phone call.

"When do you think they're going to explore the clues to this interconnected network? Hmm, let them know, I'm going too, yes, I'm going myself!"

I want to see it for myself!
"By the way, go get a checkup first and bring me the report!"

The boss said.

"I really hope right now that you're the one who's gone mad."

"Me too," Gao Ming sighed.

I hope I'm crazy.
