Chapter 9: The Heart, the Work, the New World

After solving some easy-to-deal problems one by one, Gu Wu came to the conference room, Richardson was pouring tea for Altair and Shimazaki Instant, and when he saw Gu Wu, he filled the other cup, and only slowly retreated after he was done.

There were only three people left in the room, and Gu Wu remembered that he had just glanced at the time, and it had just arrived at nine o'clock.

"May I ask what you two are doing with me? If you want to have breakfast, you can go and talk to Mr. Richardson just now. ”

Gu Wu didn't beat around the bush but asked directly, so Shimazaki, who was asked, took the lead in responding.

"No, it's not, it has nothing to do with breakfast...... I learned from Altaïr that you were going out to work together, was it a dangerous job? ”

As the creator, Shimazaki Akina also cares about Altair, even if she understands Altair's powerful abilities, and does not want her to encounter any danger.

Faced with such a question, Gu Wu could naturally give a very accurate answer.

Not only did Gu Wu possess a power that was almost invincible for ten seconds, but Altaïr could also do whatever he wanted in a world without any supernatural elements, so the chance of encountering danger was very low.

"On this point, please rest assured that the job is not very dangerous, but it has nothing to do with danger."

"That's ...... Can you tell me more about the job? ”

"This is classified information, of course, I can be sure that the things you are worried about will not happen, Miss Shimazaki."

Altaïr is strong, and she will not be cornered in such a world.

It's better to say that even if there is a group of vicious thugs and superpowers in that world, they don't have much advantage when facing Altair.

"I told you before, you don't have to worry about the rest of the matter, I'll take care of it."

"But...... Altair, you've done enough. ”

"It's not enough, it's not enough."

Not only in return and gratitude, but also for himself in everything he does.

"I can understand Miss Shimazaki's concerns, but I think you should also trust Miss Altair very much, so just do your own thing in the rest of your life, because everyone has their own way forward, so it is not efficient to unify it."

"What do you mean......"

"What I just said was a bit of a roundabout, but what it really meant was 'support others to do what they had to do.'"

"I understand that, too."

Shimazaki's tone was very affirmative, but her expression was not like that.

In Gu Wu's own opinion, everyone's forward proximity and forward speed are different, and if you expect the other party to act according to your own wishes, and use emotions such as 'worry' and 'worry' to restrain you, there will be no good results in the end.

On the other hand, the biggest reason why Gu Wu would help the two girls was because Altaïr could be his help, otherwise he would not have forcibly made the request to the system to 'let them stay here'.

Many people are self-interested creatures, and Gu Wu is no different, he will not use the sign of 'kindness' to pretend to lend a hand.

Others are valuable to Gu Wu, and Gu Wu himself can provide others with what they want, and such a natural equivalent exchange is a prerequisite for mutual trust and cooperation.

"In an instant, I understand your feelings, but you always like to think too much and worry too much, and it was the same then, and it is ...... now."

"I think I was right, but at that time...... But either way, thank you Altair, thank you for everything you have done for me. ”

Do you always feel as if their relationship has gone one step further, is this the bond between the Creator and the creatures?

"As I said, what I did wasn't something to be thankful for, because what I had was originally given to me by you, and I couldn't do anything at that time......"

As a creature with a consciousness of his own, Altaïr regretted his past incompetence, after all, Shimazaki was experiencing despair and suffering at that time.

Human malice is a rather terrifying thing, whether intentional or unintentional, once these malice gathered, it is a powerful weapon.

"Aren't we here now? That's enough. ”

"Well...... Gu Wu, don't forget what you promised before. ”

Altaïr looked at Gu Wu, and Shimazaki also focused his gaze on him.

nodded, and then took a sip of hot tea, Gu Wu, who felt a lot more relaxed all over his body.

"Whew...... So are you two going to have some breakfast? ”

Since Gu Wu had eaten in the room before, he planned to prepare it himself when Altaïr and the others went to eat.

"I'm a little hungry indeed."

"The meat buns are delicious."

"Why does Altaïr like to eat meat buns? But I haven't had breakfast like that in a long time. ”

Meat buns and soy milk are a perfect match, Gu Wu made such an evaluation in his heart.

At the same time as the two girls stood up from their positions, Richardson, who came to the conference room, delivered a document to Gu Wu's hands.

"This is an urgent document, because the area is going to be demolished, so the local orphanage needs to be transferred, and there are relevant procedures and certificates on it, but the relocation area originally belonged to the special construction area, so it ......"

"Richardson, what do you mean by that special construction zone?"

"The area where you and other wealthy businessmen and officials built private houses is very good in terms of location and environment."

"I'm not such a extravagant guy, so I'd better give up my territory."

Richardson frowned slightly, but he quickly gave an answer that satisfied Gu Wu.

"Understood, I will do it within three hours, then the arrangements for the teachers and other personnel of the new orphanage also need to be transferred, of course, these problems can be handled by me."

"In that case, I'll leave it to you."

Another problem was solved, but Gu Wu knew that there were more troubles to deal with next.

Take the matter of the 'Special Construction Zone' being arbitrarily ceded by Gu Wu, presumably those rich officials and wealthy businessmen will complain, so Gu Wu has to communicate with them, of course, you have to put these tasks after the task.

"That...... Can you excuse me? ”

Shimazaki, who thought she had left, accosted Gu Wu in an instant, and she said with a slight increase in her right hand

"The orphanage one...... I think I can be a teacher and teach them how to draw. ”

"That's a good proposition, Richardson, can you do that?"

Gu Wu also knew that Shimazaki couldn't calm down for a moment, so it was a good choice to arrange a job for her.

Richardson replied as he gathered up his papers

"That's a good thing, and I think the kids will love Miss Shimazaki too."

OK! Done again! One thing!

Although I don't know if the favorability will increase, Gu Wu believes that the trust has improved.

————

When the time came to noon, the preparation that Gu Wu mentioned just now was actually to bring money and a communicator, and the rest of the things were not necessary.

For example, daily necessities and a change of clothes can be purchased directly in that world, and the room where you stay can naturally be solved with money.

Although money is useless in that kind of world where ability is paramount, enough money can still provide a lot of convenience in the ordinary world.

[In response to the host, all preparations have been completed, and the conflicts and fusions above the settings have been completely revised.] 】

"Why are you so efficient at this kind of thing? And in this world of my redemption, it's hard to blend the settings together? ”

[Respond to the host, because I still need to make subtle corrections and debugging to this world to prevent the occurrence of distorted world bugs, so I can't take into account all aspects, and the other world doesn't need me to repair and protect, just find a way to add you to it.] 】

To put it simply, it's just a matter of workload......

If you think of the system as a computer, you may be faced with such a huge amount of computation, and there will be lag due to lack of performance and memory.

Since he was about to leave this world, Gu Wu didn't say anything more about this aspect and the system.

"Speaking of which, there is one thing that I am quite concerned about, you told me before that there are armies in this world that are absolutely obedient to me, why haven't I seen them yet?"

[In response to the host, you are not my child, nor are you a young bird waiting to be fed, if you want to understand everything in this world, you must explore it yourself; It's better to ask the host you to treat this world as an open world, even if the host you buy an open world, you have to explore it yourself, isn't it? 】

"Trouble guy...... These problems will be solved slowly in the future. ”

[In response to the host, many things must be done gradually, and wanting to make enough progress at once is no different from wishful thinking. 】

This passage of the system sounds the same as the 'anti-addiction' setting to Gu Wu.

Instead of continuing to stay in the room and talk to the system, Gu Wu, who had come to the outside of the room, walked along the passage outside the room.

There are multiple rooms on this floor in total, with the exception of the guest rooms and bedrooms, all of which have their own functions.

Gu Wu stopped at the entrance of the red door, and three people appeared in his field of vision when he looked inside.

Richardson, who was standing on the side, was introducing work to Shimazaki instantly, and Altair, who was standing next to him, said hello to Shimazaki and walked towards Gu Wu.

"Leaving?"

"Well...... Speaking of which, do you want Miss Shimazaki to go to school? If she doesn't want to work, she can do it, there are schools in this world. ”

"It's not the time."

Altaïr said so.

"I don't want her to go somewhere like that."

In this respect, Altaïr is selfish, but there is absolutely no malice in her selfishness.

"I don't think it's that Ms. Shimazaki thinks too much, but that she thinks too much."

"Why?"

"Because Miss Altaïr hasn't been thinking about how to make Miss Shimazaki happy?"

So what is the definition of happiness?

"I'm just ......"

"But as an outsider, I can't point fingers, as for now, we have work to do, let's go directly."

Altair, who had no objection, nodded, and she followed behind Gu Wu without saying anything more.

Before leaving, Gu Wu asked her if she wanted to say goodbye to Shimazaki Instant, but she refused.

"No need to say goodbye, I said I would be back soon, and I hope your mission is the same."

"Don't worry, the combination you and I are invincible in the world."

"When did we become a group?"

"Just a casual talk."

Gu Wu led the way in front and walked towards the place crossed.

————

It was not easy for the system to directly teleport Gu Wu to another world in broad daylight, so Gu Wu and Altaïr came to the elevator.

Gu Wu, who pressed the first floor, heard the sound of the system in his head.

[Respond to the host, teleportation begins, please be mentally prepared.] 】

Gu Wu, who had already prepared, didn't say anything, he just waited patiently for the teleportation to begin.

I thought it would change my vision and body like before, but I waited for a long time and nothing abnormal.

Just as he wanted to ask, the door was opened after the elevator where Gu Wu was located was 'ding dong', and the space that should have been on the first floor turned into an alley half engulfed in sunlight.

"Space jumping? When we were just taking the elevator...... Is that what you're capable of? ”

"So to speak."

Because Altaïr was asking about himself, Gu Wu replied casually, it was better than making up other lies.

As soon as the two of them entered the space, the elevator behind them drifted away like smoke.

"How do you go back?"

"Of course, even if I can't go back, I believe Miss Altai has her own means."

"You are necessary and useful for that world."

Gu Wu, who didn't know if this was a compliment, left the alley, and Altair, who was located in the rear, also walked quickly to Gu Wu's side and walked side by side with him.

The two people who left the alley were suddenly engulfed by the dazzling light, and Gu Wu, who was standing on the street, looked forward.

In front of it are terraced houses, and at the bottom there is a harbor where many cargo ships are coming in and out, and the lively seaside city is more vibrant than the city where Gu Wu is located.

"Where is this?"

"Simply put, it's a paradise for gangsters and mercenaries, and it looks like a beautiful city, but it's not."

"The offender."

No sooner had the two men finished their conversation than a man on a motorcycle honked his horn and yelled

"Fuck off! I don't care about you! Can't you hear me?! ”

After the moto, several more motorcycles followed, all of which seemed to be chasing the guy.

Not long after they left, gunshots rang out not far away.

"Let's go to the person we are responsible for."

Altaïr responded with silence, so Gu Wu continued

"Welcome to the world of Black Reef, I think we shouldn't have to worry about the combat side of things."

For Gu Wu and Altai now, this world is not dangerous.
