I'm living off a woman in Arknights.

"Because you understand it as soon as you see it, and you feel there's no need to explain it."

Swire looked annoyed and said lazily, "In short, I caught a subordinate of a family and had her buy some things for me, and by the way... wow!"

Stepping out of the bedroom, Swire looked at the hallway that had been transformed once again and exclaimed in admiration, "Manjuu's efficiency is really high."

The previously dimly lit corridor, littered with cable poles, has been completely replaced.

Instead, the corridor features a soft off-white color scheme and neatly arranged cables as a unique decoration on the walls.

The cables are neatly attached to the wall, and the interweaving of metal and insulation layers creates a rhythmic industrial texture.

Recessed light strips are evenly distributed along the edge of the ceiling, casting light onto the cables and walls, creating a play of light and shadow that outlines the lines of the corridor extending outwards.

The overall space is spacious, bright, and elegant.

Yun Yi glanced at it, then looked away uninterestedly and urged, "What is it by the way?"

To be told something and then suddenly stop talking halfway through—that's the ultimate torture.

Yunyi was itching to get back to work.

Volume Two: Fireworks at Longmen: Chapter Fifty-Seven Yun Yi: His fist hardened, oh, it's Swire, then the little brat is ready.

What's the rush?

As they stepped into the corridor, Shi Huai Ya Xing walked ahead, a smile playing on his lips, his tiger tail swaying rhythmically with each step. "You'll find out sooner or later," he said.

"If you hadn't said anything at all, or had finished saying it, I wouldn't have been in such a hurry. But you only said half of it."

Yun Yi followed behind, his resentful gaze momentarily drawn to the swaying, fluffy tail tip.

She twitched her fingertips slightly, suppressing the urge to stroke the smooth, flowing fur on the tip of the tail, and also suppressing the desire to touch and grasp the majestic tiger tail.

Suppressing these distracting thoughts, Yun Yi's only remaining concern was his slight displeasure at Shi Huaiya's suspense.

She looked up, a slight smile playing on her lips: "—By the way, speaking of which, Swire, you've really..."

Yun Yi stopped halfway through his sentence and did not continue. Shi Huaiya thought that Yun Yi was thinking, so she waited for a while.

Even after the two had almost walked out of the corridor, Swire still hadn't arrived.

She couldn't help but raise her tail slightly and ask, "What do you mean, 'really'?"

"Hmph." Yun Yi chuckled but did not respond.

Hearing the smug laughter, Shi Huai Ya Hu turned his head and looked back.

Yun Yi was looking at her smugly.

Swire quickly realized that this guy was just getting revenge on her: "You're quite vengeful."

“Of course.” Yun Yi felt no shame, but rather pride.

Her brief life in her previous existence taught her this early on:

Only by learning to hold grudges, to seek revenge, and to resist can people live comfortably at certain times.

—The reason she can't relax at work is entirely because she has a strong sense of responsibility, and sometimes she can't think straight.

When faced with someone's words or actions that make him uncomfortable, Yun Yi will not obediently let himself be led by the nose.

Like now.

Rather than seeking Swire's consent to give an answer.

It would be better to retaliate by putting the other person in the same position and facing the same situation.

—Now I have something I want to know, and you have it too, but you won't tell me, and neither will I.

You want to know? Then—

Yun Yi smiled and said, "Tell me, and by the way, what else?"

"You bastard, you have the brains to take revenge on me here, but why don't you even remember the current situation?"

The answer is clearly in their conversations; a little thought will reveal it.

Shi Huaiya felt both amused and exasperated, and tapped Yun Yi's forehead with the tip of her tongue: "What else could it be? Of course, it's to also notify my people to bring the latest intelligence and usable terminals."

The silky, soft touch on his forehead was fleeting and comfortable, making Yunyi want to experience it again and wish the soft hair could stay on his forehead for a little longer.

She lightly touched the skin brushed by the fur with her finger, her gaze unconsciously following the tiger's tail as it swayed and retracted for a moment before turning her head and replying, "Who told you to keep me in suspense first?"

The answer doesn't matter anymore; what matters is that she feels uncomfortable if she can't hear Swire say it himself.

"Of course, it's more comfortable to hear everything at once. Making me hear only half of it and then having to stop is torture. Even knowing the answer is still torturous—since I'll be upset about it sooner or later."

Yun Yi pursed his lips: "Then of course I'll choose to make you suffer along with me."

Don't even think about staying out of this!

Yun Yi's eyes were filled with accusation.

Yun Yi is really vengeful... Well, it's better not to like being taken advantage of than to like being taken advantage of.

Shi Huaiya felt relieved and then asked, "...So, what about you? Did what you said just now really have a follow-up?"

"Of course it is——"

Yun Yi drawled, a hint of amusement in his eyes: "No!"

"But if you want to hear it, I can make it up for you on the spot."

"Just tell me what you're going to write," Swire said, raising an eyebrow slightly. "Since you're going to spend time writing it now, then there's no need to say anything."

waste time.

Swire turned around and continued walking, her tail tip slightly hooked: "Let's go, hurry up, what I need should be outside the coffee shop by now."

"Oh." Having received the answer, Yun Yi resumed her relaxed attitude. She responded and followed Shi Huaiya into the hall that was connected to the corridor.

Similar to the corridor, the hall underwent another dramatic change in a short period of time, resulting in the disappearance of chickens from 001 and 002.

The large central pillar in the hall was removed and moved to an unknown location.

In the center of the ceiling, the large chandelier, now back in its original position, casts a cool white halo, clearly illuminating the hall, which is now predominantly off-white with a blue-gray contrasting carpet covering the floor.

"Hmm... Manjuu's comprehension ability is much stronger than I thought."

"I only asked them to shield me from external prying eyes, but they spontaneously did something extra beneficial."

As Yun Yi pondered this, he continued walking, following Shi Huaiya through the rows of gray tables and blue sofas in the hall.

They soon arrived at the main entrance, which was covered in a thick layer of white paint and exuded an industrial smell.

Swire didn't open the door immediately. Instead, she turned to Yun Yi, who was walking slowly up to stand beside her, and said, "When I say we're taking them away, just use... use your backpack to take away the things those two people brought."

"Huh?" Yun Yi looked back: "Why do you suddenly want me to use a backpack openly?"

Isn't this giving her information to a bunch of spies outside?

"Your powerful backpack won't be exposed. In the eyes of the Terrans, you are just someone with spatial artifacts or Originium Arts."

Swire placed her fingertip on the doorknob: "Don't forget, we're going to Penguin Logistics to place markers, so we need to demonstrate similar spatial abilities beforehand."

Seeing Yun Yi's bewildered expression, Shi Huaiya paused, her fingers pausing: "—You don't mean to just say you have an incredible pocket anchor, do you?"

"Uh, well, no, I don't think so?" Yun Yi silently looked away.

She didn't think much of it and planned to tell herself that she had the ability to use a point of reference to save her life, which she could use to spar with Lappland at any time... This shouldn't be considered saying it directly, right?

"You'd better not."

"Of course." Yun Yi, convinced that he truly didn't have it, replied confidently.

But Shi Huaiya did not believe it.

She realized she had trusted this guy too soon. She should keep an eye on him in the future. Right now, the most important thing was to get those things, lest things get complicated.

“Remember, you are now a spatial sorcerer with a wealth of skills,” Swire instructed, then pressed the doorknob and opened the door.

"Understood." Yun Yi nodded and looked outside through the opened door.

What appeared behind the door was not the bustling street it once was; a leaden gray steel plate blocked Yun Yi's entire view: "What's this?"

“Truck.” Swire walked out the door, raised her finger and tapped the steel plate, a series of crisp, loud and metallic sounds immediately echoing in all directions.

"Miss!" "Boss!"

Two calls rang out, one excited and one calm, one after the other. Accompanied by hurried yet restrained footsteps, a man and a woman, dressed in suits emblazoned with glamorous logos, emerged from one side of the steel plate.

Yunyi felt that the woman carrying the black box looked familiar—it seemed to be the one who gave her the terminal.

Before Yun Yi could confirm, and before the two could step forward, Swire called out, "Su Xiao, leave the goods where they are, and drive away. Give me Alicia's file."

Volume Two: Fireworks at Longmen: Chapter Fifty-Eight Yun Yi: The Victims Were Like Passing NPCs, I Almost Forgot

Upon hearing this, Su Xiao responded and nimbly turned around, disappearing into a corner along the path she had come from.

The woman, Feline Alicia, quickened her pace and respectfully handed over the black box.

Swire took the box with its simple pattern and gestured for Alicia to leave.

Immediately, she turned to look at Yun Yi, her tone noticeably softening: "Yun Yi, thank you for your trouble. Please take the supplies brought by the truck."

"OK." Yun Yi gave a no-questions-asked gesture.

She walked out of the coffee shop's main entrance, and the door closed automatically behind her.

Yun Yi looked around at the truck's steel cargo box, which was a distance away from the door and wide enough to block his view. He raised his finger, intending to take the entire truck away with his backpack, then separate the supplies from the truck and put the truck back separately.

The truck, whose full view was not yet visible, shuddered first, then roared as it slid open the steel plates on both sides, revealing the neatly arranged supplies inside.

Yun Yi did not withdraw her hand; she glanced briefly at the full cargo compartment.

Boxes of compressed biscuits, buckets of water, bags of clothes of various colors, a cooking pot stacked as tall as a person, and rows of folding mattresses that are conspicuous...

And in a secluded open space, there was a single, unlabeled iron box.

There are so many things, what are they for?

Yun Yi muttered to himself, and with a slight twitch of his fingertips, he prepared to take them all away.

The truck's hum interrupted her again.

What the heck is going on now?

Several partitions and conveyor belts popped out from the bottom of the cargo compartment with a "click-clack" sound, separating the various supplies in an orderly and smooth manner, and passing them off the truck one by one.

Is it that high-tech?

Yun Yi quickly withdrew her hand and stepped aside. The supplies were soon neatly stacked in several rows in front of her, and the carriage closed immediately afterward.

The truck rumbled and nimbly spun around, its rear end aligned with the front door, and the lone box, wrapped in shock-absorbing airbags, was lowered into place.

After doing all this, Su Xiao, who appeared to be driving the truck, drove away.

He carried out Swire's instructions completely, without the slightest hesitation or formality.

"That's really decisive." After watching the gray truck, whose full view had finally been seen, drive away, Yun Yi was too lazy to even make a gesture of showing off.

With a single thought, all the supplies in front of her vanished completely.

Behind Yun Yi, Shi Huaiya quickly glanced around, noting down a few subtle changes in the movements and the slight changes in the expressions of passersby.

"Done." The truck drove away, clearing the area in front of him. Yun Yi looked at the still bustling street scene, ignoring the passersby who stopped to watch with curiosity as things disappeared. He stretched and turned to Swire: "What's next?"

Going back, or is there something else going on?

"Let's go back and get some rest." Swire yawned, her tiger ears drooping limply. "I'm exhausted today!"
