Their commission was suspicious.

Chen Luo hasn't played Arknights for a while, so he doesn't know if he remembers it correctly.

In general, Hai Si doesn't have any strange or crooked ideas; their thoughts are usually very straightforward.

After all, with their terrifying adaptability and evolutionary capabilities, they don't need to have any ulterior motives; they can just do whatever they want.

That magic mirror is truly despicable; it even fools idiots!

It's best to keep Chen Luo from seeing that magic mirror again, or else let that magic mirror know what cruelty is!

"Isamara, did you feel anything special when you were swept up in the waves?" Chen Luo continued to ask.

The detective's talent revealed the traces of being altered by spacetime turbulence remaining on Isamara, a quality also present in the Herrscher of Consciousness and the little fox. These are things that are very difficult to completely erase.

However, if Chen Luo's investigative talent is to uncover more, he still needs to search for clues.

This is a problem that spans two worlds, and the easiest way to solve it is definitely to ask directly.

“It’s as if it’s being transformed and evolved, but only halfway through. This feeling is familiar. Like a small cube,” Isamara said.

"Small squares?"

"Ah."

[The forbidden octahedron—at least the shape of the object in this little orca's mind is almost identical to the forbidden octahedron.]

Although Isamara is Isamara, her body resembles Skadi's.

"Evolution..." Chen Luo began to ponder what exactly Skadi meant by evolution.

The problem with investigative capabilities is that if it involves other worlds or matters with a very wide scope, you can't see through the truth at a glance.

After all, it's an investigation, so there needs to be some clues.

Sometimes, Chen Luo has to collect these clues.

However, such situations are rare. Generally, Chen Luo only needs to search for clues when it involves the joint issues between multiple worlds.

Otherwise, for problems within the world, most can be seen through at a glance by investigative capabilities.

You could ask the Book of Akasha, they should know a lot about it, but you can't just get the Book of Akasha for free.

Chen Luo's CPU was running at full speed, and then Chen Luo stopped thinking.

"Akasha!"

Chen Luo walked to the bar entrance and tried to inquire about the Book of Akasha, and Isamara followed closely behind.

[Evolution refers to the phenomenon where, when an alien species, through some special accident, arrives in another world in a relatively peaceful way, spacetime turbulence helps to modify the alien creature's body so that it does not die quickly upon arrival.]

[Biographies that accidentally arrive in another world are valuable research data. Studying their special abilities and survival methods may provide reference suggestions for modifying certain species in the world.]

The amazing thing is that the Book of Akasha only symbolically took 0.01 seconds to process something that sounded like a huge secret.

[Isamara's statement about the evolution and modification stopping halfway through is because she was caught in another turbulence while being modified halfway through by the spacetime turbulence. If nothing unexpected had happened, she might have appeared above the spacetime tunnel in Starsea City, but after the accident, she was caught in the migration project and thrown into the abyss tunnel of Starsea City.]

Because the transformation wasn't complete, she was rejected by the world. But because some aspects of her transformation were done, the rejection wasn't as profound.

"Wait, what does that relocation project mean?"

[It will take 1 to 36 hours to find out the answer to this question. Would you like to proceed?]

(This is not something you should ask, because it will be pointless, so I advise you not to ask.)

Chen Luo understood the subtext of the Book of Akasha.

However, Chen Luo suspects that this migration process is related to the formation of the abyss passage and the fact that the abyss passage constantly changes the terrain.

"Then what do you mean by the Xinghai City time tunnel?"

Your backyard

"..."

Because it was modified by spacetime turbulence but not completely, it cannot fully adapt to this world, resulting in a limited lifespan for Isamara.

The reason for this situation is that when Isamara was swept away by the spacetime turbulence, she was also accidentally brought into that migration project...

Chen Luo couldn't help but pat Isamara's head.

That's so pitiful and so unlucky.

Chen Luo was certain he wouldn't lie to himself, so according to what the card said, the Isamara in front of him was simply the Isamara that Skadi had killed and then merged into Skadi's body.

Before Isamara could even enter the potential doomsday scenario, Chen Luo separated her and threw her into the crystal ball.

Isamara is neither destroying the world nor leading the Sea Heirs to ascension; she is simply unlucky.

That's really bad luck.

If Isamara had been a little luckier, Chen Luo might have met her a month and a half ago.

There might be another pet in the house.

"So what should we do now? Or should we just send it back into the crystal ball?"

Chen Luo can do this because Xiao A's world is that crystal ball.

However, Chen Luo could not obtain the crystal ball because it needed to be obtained from the outside world.

If Chen Luo really wanted to break through, it wouldn't be impossible, but... the crystal ball would probably shatter.

So Chen Luo probably has no other way but to try to fish it out from the river of time.

Because Isamara has already undergone half of the transformation, she probably cannot adapt to life in the Pot World. Currently, Isamara cannot live in either the Pot World or this world. However, if the remaining transformations are completed, she will be able to adapt to life in both worlds simultaneously.

The answer from the Book of Akasha appeared before Chen Luo.

Simply put, Isamara is like someone who went abroad but didn't succeed.

If we compare legal status between two worlds to nationality, then a person with foreign nationality can temporarily reside in another country, and naturally, can also return to their own country.

But Isamara's own citizenship had just been revoked, and just as she was about to apply for another citizenship, an unexpected event occurred, and another country refused to grant her the new one.

Isamara is no longer even eligible to return to her own country.

Another country may allow foreigners to sponsor, but does not welcome stateless persons.

It's not impossible to get Isamara back into the crystal ball, but first, the crystal ball that has been sitting in Terra for a long time needs to be moved to the Overworld.

This perfectly satisfies Isamara's dual nationality, which is half from the main world and half from the continent of Terra.

Upon hearing this, Chen Luo couldn't help but pat Isamara's little head again.

So unlucky.

Although Isamara didn't know what had happened, she seemed quite happy, as if she was very satisfied with Chen Luo's pat on the head.

"So what do we do now?" Chen Luo couldn't help but ask.

[Apply for proof of identity.]

"Huh? That's it?" Chen Luo had thought there would be a very complicated mission process.

[Identity documents are intended for stateless or multinational individuals. However, due to Isamara's special circumstances, please specifically indicate that you require a complete makeover when applying for identity documents. The difficulty of the task will increase randomly, but the results will be better.]

"So what about Isamara now? Is she supposed to stay in the bar until her identity is resolved?"

Chen Luo glanced at Isamara, then at his own attic on the third floor.

It doesn't seem like a bad idea to let Isamara stay in her bar, at least it's better than her sitting in that church all the time.

A dollhouse might work... but a bar is definitely the safest.

What if Isamara's special identity causes her to spend time moving around in the doll world?

Time passes slowly in the Doll World, but it still consumes time. The best advice is to place it in the bar. The second best advice is to replenish Isamara's time sufficiently.

"Huh? Time can be replenished? How?" Chen Luo suddenly recalled the "water meter reversing" situation on the timetable above Isamara's head.

[Exchange bodily fluids with the creatures of this world. The stronger the connection with the creatures in this world, the better the effect. The methods of bodily fluid exchange include, but are not limited to, saliva, saliva, and saliva...]

"I understand, blood!" Chen Luo understood instantly.

As for its strong connection with the world...

Just kidding, Chen Luo can even use the Book of Akasha, how can that be considered not strong?

You have to pay for the sins you create.

Chen Luo himself will put Isamara into the crystal ball in the future, so Chen Luo is largely responsible for Isamara's coming to this world.

As for blood and such, one's own blood is enough.

At worst, I'll just die a few more times.

"By the way, speaking of which, why were Cang Xuan and Dan Zhu fine when they came to this world? They don't have citizenship of this country either, do they? They don't have identity documents for this world either, do they?"

[Cang Xuan and Dan Zhu are considered international friends and can be repatriated. Isamara, however, is stateless and has nowhere to be repatriated; she can only be humanely euthanized.]

People with citizenship can go to any country. Even if they go to the most remote place, as long as there is rule of law, the result of illegal immigration is deportation.

As for how the trial will be conducted in China after returning home, that's a matter for China to decide.

People without statehood are not recognized in any country.

"...That's absolutely inhumane!"

Chen Luo subconsciously hugged Isamara, who was trying to snuggle into his arms.

You call this humane annihilation?

Good heavens, this means that if Chen Luo hadn't come, Isamara would really be gone.

It was thoroughly cold.

"Isamara, I have some good news and some bad news," Chen Luo said to Isamara after pulling her inside from the bar entrance.

"Ok?"

"The good news is that I've found a way to extend your time, at least until your identity issue is completely resolved. You can use this method to extend the time you can travel outside."

"Is it possible to stay with you in this world?"

"perhaps?"

Chen Luo lacks confidence.

Because Chen Luo probably won't stay in his own world forever.

"And the bad news?"

"To prolong the time, we need to exchange bodily fluids. I know you may not understand this term, but just know that after I cut open your arm, try not to waste the blood... um."

Before Chen Luo could finish speaking, Isamara rushed forward and physically silenced him.

Although Isamara knew nothing, she was not stupid.

Before Isamara was pushed into the bar by Chen Luo, who was wearing a hood, she felt that she had almost no time left, but after doing this and that, she felt like she could struggle a little longer.

This has never happened before.

Because she had absolutely no idea how to prolong her existence in this world, Isamara relied on her intuition and obediently stayed in the church for a very long time, basically never going out.

The water meter just now reversed for the first time, and coupled with my actions just now...

Therefore, it can be inferred that Isamara devised a way to stay by Chen Luo's side for an extended period of time.

As for blood...

What kind of blood?

Isamara didn't want Chen Luo to get hurt because of her.

"Waaaaaaah..."

(I'm talking about blood, not saliva!)

Isamara attacked, and then... Isamara quickly typed gg.

"boom!"

"Ha ha ha ha……"

As gunshots and laughter mingled together, Chen Luo looked at the happy little orca and contentedly put away his Friendship Revolver.

Before you talk about why Isamara is laughing, just tell me if Isamara looks happy or not.
