The System is Abstract, Luckily, So Am I
Chapter 83 : The Sacrifice of a Mentor Is Valuable
[Song Luping: My name is Song Luping. By the time you see this message, I've already been arrested.]
[Song Luping: Bufan, at this moment, I am filled with nothing but regret. I am now locking the door and sending you this final message with my phone. But I also feel a hint of relief. Fortunately, you didn't follow me. If I had implicated you and caused you to be arrested twice in two days, I'm afraid I wouldn't have the face to live in this world.]
[Song Luping: Practice is the sole criterion for testing truth. It seems now that my theory was wrong. Never underestimate the cops. Rigid empiricism is not advisable.]
[Song Luping: They will check my phone later. I can't let this matter affect you again, and I certainly can't expose the map I gave you. So I'm deleting you now.]
[Song Luping: I know it's rude to delete someone without notice. Please forgive me, Bai Bufan. This is my last time.]
[Song Luping: The cops are already angry. If I don't open the door soon, it won't just be fifteen days. That's all I can say.]
[Song Luping: Bai Bufan, it was a pleasure knowing you. I've been really happy these past few days. We have a connection. I believe we will meet again in fifteen days.]
[Song Luping: [Heart emoji] [Goodbye emoji]]
Scalding tears streamed down from Lin Li's heart.
Teary-eyed.
Nine out of ten teary-eyed moments are laughter, and the last one is hysterical laughter.
Lin Li started typing furiously.
[Lin Li: What are you kidding! Master, don't die!]
[Lin Li: You selfish guy who only thinks about yourself! I will never forgive you!]
[Lin Li: Will we meet again? Brother Ping, when we meet again, you have to be happy, okay? Brother Ping, you have to be happy, you have to be happy, okay? Be happy, be happy. Your world doesn't have me anymore, it's okay, you have to be happy on your own. Brother Ping, Brother Ping, Brother Ping, how can I live without you... Brother Ping, take me with you, Brother Ping!]
However, no matter what Lin Li sent, the only response he received was a cold and ruthless red exclamation mark.
Lin Li clicked on Song Luping's profile picture. His Moments now only had a single horizontal line and a cold little white dot.
Some people, once they leave, never come back.
Lin Li slid down from the sofa, sad and powerless, and sat leaning against it on the floor.
After fake crying for a while, Lin Li couldn't help but look at the system interface and complain, "Why isn't the mission completed yet? Hasn't the master been thrown in jail yet?"
"Uncle Yang, can you hurry up?"
...
At this time, at the arrested Jiangnan Story.
Song Luping followed the crowd dejectedly. After hunting geese all day, he was finally pecked in the eye by a goose.
These fifteen days were not going to be easy.
Song Luping was experienced in this regard. The thought of having to attend various moral and legal courses for fifteen days again gave him a headache.
Fortunately, due to the nature of his work, he wouldn't lose his job. However, his salary for this month would probably be reduced to only one-third.
After he got out, he would have to tighten his belt again.
—Others tightened their belts to force a feeling of fullness, but Song Luping tightened his belt to seal the devil in his body.
Song Luping suddenly saw a familiar person.
—The cop he had seen with his own eyes arresting Bai Bufan that day.
Song Luping suddenly remembered that Bai Bufan had told him that he was able to be released on the same day last time because he had some connections at the station. At that time, he had thought he was a big shot trying to catch a big fish.
As Bai Bufan's beloved friend, could he use this connection?
It didn't matter if he couldn't be released directly. A ten or twenty percent discount on his detention time would also make Song Luping very satisfied. He wasn't picky.
Action is better than thought. Song Luping sent a signal to the cop: "Psst, psst—psst, psst—"
Yang Liang heard the sound, walked over, and asked with a cold face, "What's wrong?"
Song Luping leaned forward and said in a low voice, "I know Bai Bufan. His connections are my connections. You should know what to do."
Yang Liang was stunned for a moment, then smiled.
He had been worrying about forgetting to ask Lin Li what his friend's characteristics were so that he could give him special care.
Now he had come to him on his own initiative.
"I understand," Yang Liang smiled gently.
Seeing this, Song Luping remained calm on the surface, but was ecstatic in his heart!
It's stable! Completely stable! This cop in front of me is one of us! I might be able to regain my freedom in a little while!
...
[Mission 5 completed.]
[You have received the reward: Random Ability*1; System Currency*50.]
The message Lin Li had been eagerly awaiting finally appeared before his eyes.
His beloved master, Song Luping, had finally arrived at the loyal Demon Suppression Division.
Lin Li clicked on the ability. The ability was not a talent. Lin Li was not worried about getting something like dancing again.
[You have obtained the active ability: Enhanced Memory]
[Enhanced Memory: After use, memory will be increased to five times the current level for twenty minutes. One use is accumulated every eight hours. The storage limit for the Enhanced Memory ability is 3.]
It was memory-related again.
Lin Li really wanted to take out a textbook and experiment with this memory ability on the spot.
Unfortunately, he hadn't brought any textbooks home at all.
That's just how good students are.
But Lin Li felt that the effect would definitely not be bad, because this ability was an additional multiplier. The time point of the multiplication was his memory at the time of use.
After his memory had been doubled, the feeling was already very obvious. After using this ability, his memory would be ten times his original memory. He estimated that even if he couldn't achieve photographic memory, it would be close.
Now Lin Li was more concerned about another matter.
His system currency had accumulated to six hundred. He could finally unlock the first item.
"System, I hope you're not like Pinduoduo."
Before Lin Li clicked on the [Shop], he prayed silently in his heart.
—As a promising young man whose thinking could be hung on a lamppost, Lin Li felt that the system still had many more ways to torment him.
For example, after unlocking an item, he would find that he still needed to unlock the purchase qualification. After buying the item and putting it in his warehouse, he would still need to unlock the usage qualification.
But if the system really did that, Lin Li would be angry.
After praying, Lin Li clicked on the shop.
[Random Quality Spirit Stone: 20 System Currency (Daily Limit 1) (Can be refreshed for free)]
[Unlock Refreshable Item Slot 2, requires a cumulative total of 1000 System Currency. (600/1000)]
[Unlock Refreshable Item Slot 3, requires a cumulative total of 1500 System Currency. (600/1500)]
[After unlocking another refreshable item slot, you can view the unlock requirements for refreshable item slot 4.]
He had finally unlocked the purchase channel for spirit stones.
Lin Li had been waiting for this day for a long time.
Lin Li didn't know if 20 was expensive or not, because he had no reference at all.
But as someone who had played many games, Lin Li was very clear about the value of the term "limited purchase," especially when the limit was 1. He'd buy it first and ask questions later!
[You have purchased a Random Quality Spirit Stone*1.]
[Sold out for today (Can be refreshed for free)]
Fortunately, the system hadn't done the beastly thing of requiring an unlock for the purchase qualification after all.
The system was still inferior to him in terms of being a beast.
Lin Li checked his warehouse. This thing was quite standardized. It even had a probability disclosure.
[Low-grade Spirit Stone: 95%; Medium-grade Spirit Stone: 4%; High-grade Spirit Stone: 0.9%; Spirit Spring: 0.1%.]
"The probability is a bit too realistic, but there's no pity system. This violates the law. I'm going to report you!" After discovering that there was no pity mechanism, Lin Li muttered to himself.
Use.
[Low-grade Spirit Stone*1.]
It was a result without any surprises, but it was inevitably a bit bland.
Lin Li checked the refresh mechanism of the item slot.
Refreshing didn't refresh the daily purchase limit, but directly refreshed the type of item.
However, the refreshed result could be chosen to be replaced, so there was no need to worry about getting a worse result after refreshing and regretting the choice.
Since it was reversible, it didn't matter.
Refresh.
[You have refreshed a B++ Combat Armor (Perfect Lin Li Replica): 1000 System Currency. Do you want to replace it?]
