Oh no! I'm surrounded by female ghosts!

In the coffee shop late at night, the air seemed to freeze suddenly.

Everyone was deep in thought.

No one could answer Chen Zhiwei's question.

Su Ming gazed at the deep night outside the window, looking at himself reflected in the dark glass.

He gazed at his reflection in the glass, and his reflection in the glass gazed back at him.

In Su Ming's eyes.

The reflection seemed to come alive.

He slowly raised his head, a wildly manic smile spreading across his lips.

In those deep, dark eyes, only icy coldness and extreme cruelty remained.

He didn't speak.

But Su Ming clearly heard a familiar whisper in his ear.

"We have a way, don't we?"

"Use the low-level blind spot to dismantle her."

"Look at her life, look at her true thoughts."

The next instant, a hand suddenly landed on Su Ming's shoulder and gave him a gentle tug.

This pull seemed to have dragged Su Ming back from hell to the human world.

His eyes were unfocused.

Until I saw a flawless face.

It is Yu Mengnian.

Then I turned to look at the dark glass window.

My own reflection inside was normal, without any unusual phenomena.

It turns out that what was moving was never the reflection, but his heart.

That whisper was actually the deepest voice of my heart.

It's possible.

By using low-level blind spots, we can dismantle everything about Tangtang.

If you take out her "parts" one by one and examine them, the truth will be revealed.

but…

To dissect, dissect, and analyze the person you love.

Is she even human?

What exactly is she?

A cold, impersonal object that can be disassembled and reassembled at will?

Su Ming bit his tongue sharply and shook his head at Yu Mengnian: "I'm fine, I was just spacing out."

It is a consequence of low-level blind spots.

It only operated for a few seconds before such terrifying aftereffects appeared.

It was as if the abyss ahead was always staring at him, waiting for him to walk in, jump in, and then... ascend.

Extinguish that terrible thought immediately.

You must never think that way, let alone do that.

Once this rift is torn open, there may be no turning back.

Chen Zhiwei gave him a deep look, her eyes flickering with emotion.

She saw it.

Seeing the sudden change in Su Ming's eyes, fear almost stopped her heart from beating.

Fortunately, Yu Mengnian also discovered it.

Of those present, only Zhou Zhengyang was probably unaware of the situation.

Just a moment ago, the entire planet Earth experienced the most terrifying test of life and death.

Of course, Zhou Zhengyang didn't have time to pay attention.

He was currently engrossed in reviewing Tang Tang's entire life story.

Much later.

Zhou Zhengyang looked up and said, "Household registration, school registration, travel records, social activity history—all the information has been verified."

"Based on the information, she is just a girl who grew up in an ordinary middle-class family. She has no record of awakening, no abnormal energy fluctuations, and has never been exposed to any abnormal events."

Su Ming tapped rhythmically on the table, his mind replaying every moment he shared with Tang Tang.

But the memory is incomplete.

The images that remained in his mind were mostly of Tang Tang after her death, transformed into a ghost bride.

Tangtang was alive for only one month in 2003 when she was four years old, and for one month in 2012 when she was thirteen years old.

Two short months is not enough to prove anything.

Because people grow and mature.

The current Tangtang and the Ghost Bride Tangtang are vastly different in personality, temperament, and state of mind.

Seeing that no one spoke.

Zhou Zhengyang grew increasingly anxious. After much deliberation, he cautiously suggested, "Could we... isolate Tang Tang first?"

"Protect her, or restrict her activities to prevent her from expanding her social network..."

He wasn't finished yet.

Chen Zhiwei immediately interrupted, "Impossible."

"Even if she dies, it won't matter."

"The Law of Six People is irreversible and has no solution."

"unless."

She glanced at Su Ming, seemingly casually: "Erase, erase all traces of her on Earth."

Su Ming's pupils trembled slightly.

Isn't this... exactly the purpose of my coming to 2019?

The simplest, most violent, and most direct method.

Now, immediately, kill Tang Tang. Mission complete, doomsday timeline disappears.

Tangtang was erased of all traces by Blue Star and became his own pet character.

In fact, every doomsday scenario has such a shortcut.

If Wen Qi is killed immediately in 2003, the world will not be destroyed.

In 2012, kill Shen Wanyu immediately, and the Time Insect will not be able to observe.

But in this way...

Nothing has changed, nothing is known, so the past is all blank.

Chen Zhiwei walked up to Su Ming and suddenly chuckled softly, "It all means nothing now, right?"

The true meaning lies in the process, not the outcome.

"It's like Kuafu chasing the sun, Jingwei filling the sea, and Yu Gong moving mountains."

"People celebrate their process, even if the result is futile."

Such a similar sentence.

Wen Qi once said the exact same thing.

"A piece of toxic motivational quote I saw online?" Su Ming asked instinctively.

Chen Zhiwei shook her head: "I believe you."

"Su Ming".

"I only have one question for you now."

She stared intently into Su Ming's eyes and asked, "What do you want to do?"

The words were spoken.

All eyes in the room were on Su Ming.

A moment later, Su Ming's lips curled into a determined smile: "I want to defeat Him."

These five simple words, though brief, resonated deeply, instantly eliciting various expressions from the crowd.

Zhou Zhengyang's pupils contracted, his face filled with shock.

Yu Mengnian's eyes flickered slightly, as if she were deep in thought.

Chen Zhiwei slammed his hand on the table, his eyes flashing with an astonishing light, and his long-suppressed aura burst forth.

"Okay~"

She laughed heartily, her tone full of delight: "Su Ming, you truly deserve to be called the King, you have great magnanimity."

"If you just answered me that you want to find out the details first, learn slowly, and wait until everything is fully prepared before taking action."

"Then I'll turn around and leave."

"Whatever happens in 2019 is already in the past, and has nothing to do with me."

"All understanding is just an excuse."

"The more you understand, the more afraid you become; the more afraid you become, the more hopeless it seems; in the end, even the courage to pick up a knife will disappear."

"It's not just about everything; you need to be fully prepared."

"True courage is being prepared to face the worst possible outcome."

At this moment, she exuded a powerful aura, and the deep pessimism hidden in her eyes was like shattered porcelain.

Just now.

The doorbell rang crisply.

Two figures pushed open the door and entered.

They looked curiously at the crowd in the coffee shop, and one of the girls asked, "Excuse me, is Director Zhou here?"

Zhou Zhengyang immediately stepped forward: "Hello, Cheng Yao, Xu Qinghe, you've come at the perfect time."

Su Ming looked up.

Cheng Yao is a rising star actress.

Her eyebrows and eyes were clean and clear, her facial features were exquisite and three-dimensional, and she possessed a natural and innate charm.

The real person is even more outstanding than the one on screen; both their bone structure and skin appearance are top-notch.

Next to her is Xu Qinghe as she grew up.

She stood tall and graceful, with a proper and obedient posture. Her eyes were gentle and reserved, giving her the appearance of a well-behaved girl who was easy to pity.

But who could have imagined that beneath that gentle and delicate face lay such breathtaking determination?

Six months ago, she murdered her own parents.

"Old Zhou~" Chen Zhiwei called out without any politeness.

Zhou Zhengyang had no temper at all.

He quickly arranged for the two to sit down.

Everyone took their seats in order.

Su Ming sat in the main seat.

Yu Mengnian sat on the right, and Chen Zhiwei sat on the left.

Next in order are Xu Qinghe and Cheng Yao.

Zhou Zhengyang originally wanted to sit in a corner of the coffee shop, but Su Ming raised his hand to gesture for him to come forward and sit with him.

He was immediately flattered.

There weren't many people in 2019.

Including Zhou Zhengyang, there were only five people.

Chen Zhiwei looked at Cheng Yao and Xu Qinghe, who were both bewildered, and said calmly, "Old Zhou, explain the whole story to them."

Zhou Zhengyang nodded immediately and began to tell them.

The most shocking moment of the whole process was Cheng Yao's.

She repeatedly covered her mouth in shock, her eyes filled with disbelief: "Are you filming a movie?"

After Zhou Zhengyang finished speaking.

The two sat with their heads down, trying their best to digest this massive amount of information that overturned their worldviews.

Chen Zhiwei had now sorted out all her thoughts.

"Let's talk about what it means to win."

She raised a point of view, which is also the core issue.

"Based on the information we have, we know that in 2003, Wen Qi was born in the form of a giant baby of the world."

"Su Ming, have you ever fought against the world's giant babies?"

To be honest, Su Ming really didn't want to answer this question truthfully.

Seeing Chen Zhiwei's serious expression, he finally didn't hide it and nodded, saying with a heavy heart, "We've fought."

"Very strong."

"So powerful that even I, in my current state, couldn't withstand a single breath from Him."

"Wen Qi said that to kill Him, one must possess the power to destroy a star level."

Star-level explosion.

It's not about destroying a star with a single punch.

Rather, it possesses the power to destroy an entire planet.

"I'll calculate it for you based on your physical strength later," Chen Zhiwei nodded and said.

Anyway, a level 6 awakening can't possibly have the power to break through to a higher star level.

Even with seven senses, it's probably not going to be easy.

It's estimated to be at least eight senses.

Changing the subject, Chen Zhiwei said seriously, "But I have to correct one of your word choices."

"Not to kill Him, but to bring Him back to his original form."

"They are formless and cannot be killed; the giant baby of the world is merely a vessel."

"It's like, we can kill a person's body, but we can't eradicate their mind."

Su Ming nodded.

This is also one of the reasons why he felt so powerless.

Even if the world's giant infant is killed, they can still reshape their vessel and descend again, endlessly and without end.

Chen Zhiwei continued, "Based on the Time Insect of 2012, we can learn..."

"Before they were personified, we humans were unable to perceive them."

"Even if we find them, they will only be traces of their presence."

"After Su Ming severed the 2012 end-of-day timeline and returned to 2026, the Time Worm followed him there."

"This means that they are not bound by our conventional human time."

"They will perceive everything that has happened, whether in the past, present, or future."

At this point, Chen Zhiwei dipped her finger in water and drew a number on the table [1].

"Based on all known information."

"We have only one way, and currently the only way, to defeat them."

The topic returned to the word "defeat".

After a pause of one second, Chen Zhiwei also explained his solution.

"That is, to guide them to descend in an anthropomorphic manner."

"Then, beat them hard."

"If you hurt them just once, whether in the past, future, or present, they will understand."

"The way to hurt them is not to kill their physical form after their descent."

"Instead, it is to seize their knowledge."

"Su Ming possesses this ability."

At this point, Su Ming was about to ask, "Then why not take the opportunity to kill them?"

Chen Zhiwei rolled her eyes at him: "Won't they run away?"

"Standing here waiting for you to suck me dry?"

"They've escaped. Do you dare to chase after them?"

"If it's really possible to kill them, I would certainly support it."

"How about we go into space and wipe them all out?"

Su Ming turned his head away, slightly embarrassed.

Every time Wen Qi explains something to me, she speaks softly and patiently.

Look at you, I just asked a casual question, why did you speak so bluntly and harshly?

Chen Zhiwei withdrew his gaze and continued, "This is what is meant by victory."

"To put it simply, it's like being bitten hard by a tiny insect."

Even if you step on and kill the bug afterward, you will still subconsciously avoid it and feel wary when you encounter the same kind again.

At this point, Chen Zhiwei suddenly burst into laughter, laughing so hard she bent over and tears streamed down her face.

How absurd, how hopeless, how powerless!

The only way.

It was merely by exerting all its strength that they were made to give way, as if avoiding a small insect.

And this is still the most optimistic outcome.

It hurts from being bitten by an insect.

Some people will instinctively move away.

Some people will stomp on these insects when they see them.

Some people might be even more curious and want to study the insect.

This is currently the only way Chen Zhiwei can think of to "defeat" the enemy.

That's really... too humble.

As she laughed, the broken pessimism in Chen Zhiwei's eyes quickly healed.

She suddenly raised her hand, exerted force, and slammed it hard against the table: "What are we struggling about?"

"It's absolutely ridiculous."

The tabletop was not overturned.

Because Su Ming pressed down on the desktop in time.

No matter how hard Chen Zhiwei tried, that powerful hand couldn't overturn the table.

She shrugged, choosing to let go, and chuckled softly, "How boring."

"I'm gone."

He kicked the stool away and left with a flourish.

Zhou Zhengyang's heart tightened, and he quickly shouted, "Dr. Chen?"

Chen Zhiwei pointed at his nose and cursed, "Get lost, don't disturb my experiment."

"The world is vast, but experimentation is paramount."

"This kind of pointless topic, relying on probability to arrive at all the results, is a complete waste of my time."

Chen Zhiwei is indeed terrifying when she loses her temper.

Zhou Zhengyang looked to Su Ming for help.

Su Ming didn't say anything, he just watched Chen Zhiwei leave.

"Your Majesty!" Zhou Zhengyang called out anxiously. Seeing that the king did not speak, he stamped his foot, gritted his teeth, and hurriedly chased after him.

Cheng Yao looked puzzled.

We were having a nice chat, why did he suddenly leave?

Xu Qinghe lowered her head thoughtfully, fiddling with her fingers.

Yu Mengnian turned her head to look at Su Ming: "I'll go and call her back."

Su Ming shook his head: "No need."

He is no longer the person who knew nothing.

He gave his solution, then flipped the table and left, cursing that it was pointless.

But in reality, she was asking Su Ming: If everyone else gives up, will he give up?

This tabletop, which was almost overturned, is Blue Star.

Su Ming pressed down on the table, which was his answer.

Since Su Ming has answered, explained the solution, and analyzed the situation, there's no need for Chen Zhiwei to stay here.
