Beep beep beep—

A series of hurried footsteps sounded. The metal door opened slowly. The head of the technical department agilely squeezed in through the crack of the door.

He ran toward the screen and started his operation.

He looked at the data on the side of the screen. It was starting to get back to normal. Cold sweat dripped down his forehead.

Please…

You must wake up!

If not, the Director will kill me!

The door of the capsule opened slowly.

The young man inside opened his eyes. The head of the technical department met the young man’s eyes and took a step back. “Lord… Lord Nine.”

The young man’s gaze was calm. It wasn’t scary.

However, the technical department head felt frightened.

The young man lay there quietly for a moment while the technical department head remained frozen on the spot. He didn’t dare to move at all.

After some time, Qi Yu jumped out of the capsule and smiled. “Why are you so scared to see me? Will I eat you?”

The head of the technical department: “…”

Maybe.

Qi Yu asked, “Is there any body I can use?”

“What… what?”

“I need a body. A female body.”

“Uhh…”

The technical department head went to find a body for Qi Yu. They had many bodies here which could be used. Sometimes people failed their missions and never managed to come back. Hence, their bodies were frozen and kept here.

Qi Yu was not satisfied with any of the bodies. In the end, he chose an android.

After Qi Yu left, the head of the technical department took some time before he went to the director’s office.

What the hell!

I almost died from fright!

“Ouch…” The head of the technical department covered his head with his hands. He had bumped into someone. “Who the hell doesn’t look where he’s going… oh… Luo Yan, you’re awake too?”

The technical department head stepped back.

Why was he so unlucky today!

Luo Yan just woke up so his face was quite pale. He didn’t have any reaction after he bumped into someone and just continued walking toward the director’s office.

The technical department head: “…” False alarm.

Wait… Luo Yan just let him off so easily today?

Should he still report to the director?

Maybe…

There was no need to anymore?

Since Luo Yan was awake, the director would know that Lord Nine had woken up too.

Yes!

There was no need to inform the director!

But, why did Lord Nine ask for an android?

…

Luo Yan entered the director’s office. The director looked up and narrowed his eyes. “Where’s Qi Yu?”

Luo Yan sat on the sofa and looked up lazily. “I work hard for you too. Shouldn’t you show me some concern?”

The director leaned back against his chair. A strand of blond hair dropped on his shoulder. “How are you?”

“I almost died.” Luo Yan scoffed. “Why is there such a huge difference between humans?”

The director finished his greetings and asked, “What about him?”

Luo Yan put his hand down and gave a mysterious smile. “If you want to know how he is, you can go and look for him yourself.”

The director frowned. However, he didn’t get up.

“Where is the Apocalypse?”

Luo Yan replied, “I’m sorry, Director. I didn’t complete the mission you gave me. Is there any punishment I need to receive?”

The director looked at him. “You all were stuck inside because someone hacked into the administration. Did you notice anything amiss?”

“What is the technical department head doing? He didn’t know that someone had hacked into our system?”

The director replied, “The other party is highly skilled. No signs of them have been found yet. Did you notice anything wrong?”

“No.” Luo Yan paused. “This is considered a workplace injury, right? Shouldn’t you compensate me?”

The director looked at him with a dark expression. He was thinking if he should believe Luo Yan.

“What about Ming Shu?”

Lord Nine smiled. His eyes lit up with anticipation. “I think that Lord Nine will give you a huge surprise this time.”

…

In the room…

Qi Yu stood in front of the android for a long time. He placed the Apocalypse close to the android’s forehead.

The light from the Apocalypse engulfed the android.

Time passed slowly. There was no reaction from the android. Qi Yu frowned.

Why was there no reaction?

He…

Just as Qi Yu was getting confused, an unfamiliar voice sounded beside him.

“What are you doing?”

Qi Yu looked up instantly. He saw a pair of clear eyes looking intently at him.

It was a young girl.

Her hair hung to her waist and she was wearing a white and red retro mini skirt. It emphasized the young girl’s fair skin.

She had a tassel on her waist. It swung around slightly.

The young girl smiled at him. She was beautiful. Her cheeks were slightly red and her eyes were enchanting.

She looked like a fairy. But, she had a slightly intimidating aura which made people stay away from her.

She looked down on him as she floated in the air.

“…Wife?”

Ming Shu landed on the ground. While Qi Yu was still stunned by his wife’s beauty, he saw her pulling up her sleeve and raising her fist at him.

“Who asked you to not listen to me? Who asked you to make your own decision… impressive of you!”

Qi Yu wanted to grab her and give her a forceful kiss.

However, in real life, it was more difficult than expected. He could only cover his head and shout, “Wife, I’m in the wrong. I know that I’m in the wrong!”

“Why are you running away? Let me tell you, Qi Yu, I will not forgive you!”

Qi Yu: “…” If he didn’t run away, he would be beaten to death!

F**k, other people would be crying and feeling touched at this moment!

Why am I getting beaten up instead?

“Wife, it’s my mistake!” Qi Yu shouted as he cursed in his heart.

“Your mistake? What are you doing about this, then? Is there any use in realizing your mistake now?”

Qi Yu: “…” Where is my knife! Don’t think that I will go easy on you just because you’re my wife!

Qi Yu turned around and tried to hug Ming Shu. However, instead, he grabbed the thin air…

He couldn’t touch her!

“Wife…” Qi Yu froze on the spot. When Ming Shu slapped his head, he didn’t manage to dodge in time.

“Pain, pain…” Qi Yu covered his head.

Why…

Why could she hit him but he couldn’t touch her?

Ming Shu retracted her hands and looked at them carefully. Her body was translucent.

“Wife…” Qi Yu moved closer. “What happened to your body?”

“Have you never seen a spirit?” Ming Shu said angrily.

“But… you can hit me, right?”

“You deserve a beating.”

“…”

Who deserves a beating!

You are the one who deserves a beating!

Qi Yu reached out and tried to touch Ming Shu again. His hand still went through her body.

Ming Shu looked at his hands. “Where are you touching?”

“I can’t touch anything.” Qi Yu kept moving his hands around. “See?”

Ming Shu: “…”

How am I able to beat him until he loses his memory?
