?


    After moving for a long time, Hikaru and Lah were already outside the city''s outskirts. Hikaru led Lah to a road that hadn''t been tarred.


    This road was still a normal dirt road, there seemed to be a lot of cars passing so it was very t. A car or a truck with arge tonnage can still easily cross this road.


    There was also a barricade in front of the road, on the barrier was a rusty board.


    "Private Area - No Entry!"


    "This ce…" Lah frowned and said, "This seems to be the property owned by Hodai, your father."


    "What?!" Hikaru was a bit startled: "How do you know this?"


    "Heh?! Didn''t you know about this?" Lah looked at him puzzled.


    In her mind, she felt that Hikaru must have known about this for two reasons. Firstly, Hikaru is Hodai''s son.


    Although Hodai doesn''t really like Hikaru, and he even wanted to transfer his inheritance to Tadashi.


    However, the real estate owned, invested and exploited by Hodai''s wife is no secret.


    Many people in the city''s leadership position know this. Even many of Hodai''s subordinates knew about this, so why wouldn''t Hikaru know about it.


    Second reason, okay, Lah didn''t want to think about that possibility because doing so would only alienate Hikaru even more.


    Hikaru shook his head: "My father does not allow me to attend any of his businesses. Maybe he''s afraid I''ll ruin everything."


    "Hahaha… but that seems to be the most wrong thing he''s ever done." Laughed.


    In fact, she was saying the truth. Lah thought that if she was Hodai, and she found out that Hikaru wasn''t as useless as she thought, she would definitely spit out a mouthful of fresh blood in anger.


    However, there was no such thing as regret in this world. Suddenly, Lah remembered Amanda.


    Yes, Amanda Ryrlia is Hodai''s wife, however, that is only the tip of the iceberg.


    Hodai had never been able to touch Ryrlia''s body, even holding hands, Hodai could not.


    ''What is Ryrlia doing now? Will she be a Zombie or awaken some superpower?''


    Suddenly, Hikaru spoke up: "If this is my father''s property, does that mean… Tadashi also knows the area?"


    Lah shook his head: "Actually, Hodai doesn''t know what this area is used for."


    "Hm? What do you mean?"


    Lah sighed and said, "I only know through a few people. This area was formerly used as aboratory."


    "However, the government decided to cancel that experimental project so the ce became abandoned."


    "Then the government sold thisnd to Hodai. Even though on the surface the government has announced that thisnd belongs to Hodai, in reality, this ce still belongs to the government."


    Hikaru felt a bit of a headache after hearing that. In fact, he was not the smart type.


    He was not good at using his brain much. Even when he was faced withplicated issues he just looked up the answers on Google.


    Hikaru sighed and said, "You mean… is this still the government research headquarters?"


    Lah shook her head: "I don''t know."


    Hikaru: "..."


    ''Are you crazy? You exined for a long time, and finally you say you don''t know.''


    He shook his head and sighed, "Let''s go in."


    Hikaru remembered that in the novel, when Tadashi and Gray Wolf entered the area, a spider-like monster attacked them.


    It had tremendous strength with skin so thick that it could withstand bullets.


    However, Tadashi is the main character, so he could defeat that monster.


    Hikaru kicked the barricade away, then entered the interior. Lah suddenly frowned then shook her head, and followed behind him.


    After walking for about 10 minutes, the two of them reached a cliff, surrounded by nothing unusual.


    Lah looked around, then said: "Strange, this road leads to a cliff, but this ce is not wide enough for a truck to turn around."


    "What do you mean?" Hikaru asked, confused.


    Lah shook her head and said, "You also see that the road just now is quite wide, enough for two trucks to move side by side."


    "However, this area is very narrow, just enough for a truck to enter. Even if that truck wants to turn around, it can''t do so because the ce doesn''t have enough space to do that."


    "That means this ce must have a gate or another secret passage."


    Hikaru was startled, he then nced at Lah with wary eyes.


    ''With just a few pieces of information, she could guess so many things. If she''s with me, I''m afraid…''


    Hikaru sighed, his anxiety growing stronger. But he knew now was not the time to turn into Lah''s enemy.


    At least… he would have toplete the System''s hidden mission before he''ll find a way to get Lah to leave him alone.


    What about the thought of using Lah to destroy the other main characters?


    Hahaha… he couldn''t even defend himself if Lah attacked him, so how could he use her to his liking?


    Hikaru crossed his arms and looked at Lah. Lah also looked at him.


    Hikaru frowned and said, "Hm? What are you looking at me for? Didn''t you find the secret passage you just talked about? Show me where it is"


    "Why do I have to do that? You certainly know the location of that secret gate, I don''t need to act smart, right?"


    Hikaru: "..."


    He desperately wanted to refute Lah''s words, but in the end he could only sigh.


    Hikaru went to the edge of the cliff, and found a rock that was not special. It was an ordinary rock on a cliff.


    In the novel, Tadashi arrived here without finding any useful information.


    He, like Hikaru, saw the cliff, then thought that the map Gray Wolf gave him was wrong.


    But when Tadashi leaned his back against the cliff, he ''identally'' activated the key to the secret gate.


    The author described the key as a very ordinary stone, protruding from the cliff, about 1.5 meters above the ground.


    There were countless stones protruding from the cliff, but Hikaru found one that caught his attention.


    Hikaru touched the stone, then shoved it inside.


    Crack!


    A strange sound resounded, the cliff suddenly trembled, then it split open, revealing a gate more than 5 meters high, and more than 10 meters wide just like in a sci-fi movie.


    Hikaru felt a little lucky that his choices were gradually bing more urate. No, to be more precise, he had be much luckier than before.


    Perhaps thanks to his luck points, his intuition had also be as urate as the main characters.


    However, he was stillunable to match the main character.


    Suddenly, Hikaru nced at Lah, who also crossed her arms over her chest, looking at him with a calm gaze as if she had predicted this would happen.


    Hikaru: "..."


    La: "…"


    Hikaru: (→ _ →)


    Lah: (← _ ←)


    "What''s with that look of yours?" Lah and Hikaru said in unison.


    Hikaru: "..."


    Lah suddenly burst outughing: "Hahaha… it seems like you and I have the same thoughts."


    "Hm… how do you feel about having a second girlfriend? I think we''ll get along really well."


    "Don''t worry about Velys, she will definitely ept me."


    Hikaru nced at Lah, then silently entered the path behind the gate.


    "Oi! What kind of attitude is that?"


    Hikaru didn''t turn his head to look at her but continued to move forward. Lah sighed, feeling a little angry.


    But then she followed behind him.


    Hikaru went inside, and he saw a heavy solid steel door blocking the passage.


    ''Strange… the novel didn''t describe this in detail.'' Hikaru thought to himself.


    That''s right, in the novel, Tadashi and Gray Wolf, after going inside, immediately encountered a spider monster ambush.


    After killing the spider monster, they immediately went inside and took away all the weapons.


    And of course… in the novel there was no mention of this ce having a monolithic steel gate blocking the path.


    Hikaru frowned, feeling extremely confused.


    Suddenly, Lah approached the gate, where there was an electronic cipher box.


    Lah touched the cipher pad with a strange look in her eyes. Then she suddenly entered a series of numbers, then clicked the ''confirm'' button.


    Ding!


    A bell rang, and the monolithic steel door suddenly opened automatically.


    The light inside suddenly turned on, revealing a seemingly endless tunnel behind.


    Lah slowly approached the door, and with a slightly trembling voice she said: "Hikaru… you are the first one who is about to see where I was born."


    "Where were you born?" Hikaru frowned, he felt like he was about to learn some terrible secret.


    "That''s right. Are you excited?"


    Hikaru: "..."


    ''Wait! Lah says she is the result of a research, however, she is just a failed product. So…''


    ''Is this the ce where Lah used to live?''


    After linking all the facts, Hikaru seemed to realize that he had just found a secret that had been buried after so many years.


    He didn''t find it strange that the armory in Tadashi''s novel turned into aboratory that created Lah.


    This is a chaotic world anyway, anything is possible. The plots will probably ovep, and somehow it will be logical.


    Or illogical...


    "So… why did you say earlier that you didn''t know the way to this armory?" Hikaru frowned and said, "You… are lying to me, aren''t you?"


    "I wasn''t! I just…"


    "Enough! Lah, you and I are just in a cooperative rtionship, moreover you are withholding information like this, I don''t think I can continue to cooperate with you."


    Lah heard that and fell silent. She really wanted to punch Hikaru in the face. He also wanted to push her away now while she was trying to move closer to him.


    "You… are thinking too much. It happened more than 25 years ago, how can I remember everything clearly?"


    "Ah! You don''t remember everything so why do you remember the password of this gate?" Hikaru sneered: "Lah, you don''t have to lie."


    "It''s normal for a five-year-old girl to not be able to clearly remember the way home. But that little girl can clearly remember the password of this gate."


    "Even a sci-fi movie wouldn''t have such illogical scenes, Lah."


    Lah sighed, she didn''t know how to exin it to him…


    BAM!


    Suddenly, a loud bang rang out from the end of the tunnel, and the lights illuminating the tunnel flickered continuously.


    Lah heard the sound and shouted in fear, "Hikaru, run away from here, hurry."
