"Me? Male supporting actor... Oh, I remembered it," Li Liang wiped the corners of his eyebrows with his thumb and recalled, "When I met Andrea at ASK, Tam was also there. He said that An What Delia is thinking about is..."
"Let you act in "Hans and His Friends"?" Cain giggled while holding the doll, then sat up cross-legged and said seriously, "You can really consider it. I think your image is quite good. You will definitely be able to do it." Get Laura away from Hans.”
"Who is Laura?"
"The heroine is played by Andrea." Cain raised his eyebrows, "Are you excited?"
Li Liang pretended to be enlightened: "Oh, I find that what you say always makes sense. Well, I'm moved."
Cain slammed the doll over.
Li Liang caught it, leaned back on the chair and said with a smile: "What are you doing? Didn't you say so?"
"Give it back to me," Cain held out his hand.
"Let me hold you for a while. It's quite cold in your room," Li Liang held the doll in his arms and wondered, "She wants me to play the male supporting role, why did she come to you?"
Cain snorted, pulled out a pillow and hugged her: "Of course it was that bitch Andrea who gave her the idea."
"Tsk, you can't just because she looks better than you..."
Cain raised the pillow again.
"Don't make trouble," Li Liang cleared his throat, "Well, you didn't tell her that I have no time to play a supporting actor. The Gate of Spiritual Reason will open next month, and now there is not even a decent guest house built. When the guests When they come, they don’t even know where to live.”
"I told you, she said it can wait, and they are not filming on Earth, they want to film in the spiritual world."
"What?"
"The goblins will compensate us with three spiritual core mines. Sooner or later you will send a fleet to take them over. They want to follow the fleet and go to the spiritual core mines to film."
Li Liang frowned and said, "Who leaked the news?"
"you guess."
"Robben?"
Cain gloated: "The supreme commander is now in great power."
"In order to stabilize the Interstellar Expeditionary Force and the Deep Space Defense Corps, I could only use Robben," Li Liang said quietly. "He felt that he had killed Yuan Quan's father, so he always regarded Yuan Quan as his daughter. As long as Yuan Quan On Earth...the news about the Spiritual Core Mine will be announced sooner or later, it doesn’t matter.”
"Yeah, but she's really ink," Cain buried his face in the pillow, his voice dull, "She sends me voice calls every day, it's so annoying."
"It shows that Andrea's advice is correct. She knows who among these people is most afraid of trouble."
Cain raised his head, his hair was messy, and he looked helpless.
"Okay, I'll go back and send a message to Yuan Quan," Li Liang said with a smile, "What do you usually do at home?"
"Hey, boss, I've been doing what you asked me to do all day long. I'm very busy."
"You? I guess you just found a place to lie down and let Mizuno do all the work?"
Cain turned away, licked his back molars with his tongue, and said angrily: "Are you very free?"
"Today the Toad Man came and took Tam away," Li Liang lowered his head and fiddled with the doll's hand, "I suddenly felt...a little tired."
The room fell silent.
Cain lay down holding the pillow and whispered: "Take a rest if you are tired."
"Do you know what I'm most worried about?" Li Liang whispered, "I'm worried that the goblin thing is not over yet, and there is a bigger conspiracy behind the whole thing..."
"Are you overthinking it? Even if there is any conspiracy, it will be supported by the Terranza Alliance and Du Yujing."
"The problem is Emperor Haotian...forget it, there is no point in saying this now," Li Liang shook his head, "I moved the opening ceremony forward just to contact more organizations as soon as possible and let Dr. Xisen lead people out as soon as possible, including the legions behind him. The reorganization and the reception of the spiritual core mine must be carried out as quickly as possible. With the current military strength, if something happens, we will not be able to handle it at all."
Cain rested his hands on his hands and stared intently.
"What's wrong?" Li Liang came to his senses.
"I feel now that that 'Li Liang' brought you to this era because you were stupid."
"Why?"
"No reason," Cain chuckled, his eyes lit up for a moment, and he stood up and said, "I thought of something a few days ago. Didn't we talk about it before? Banana peels."
"Ah, then what."
"At that time we guessed that the banana peel might be me and you..."
"That's your guess."
"Listen to me," Cain said enthusiastically, "If one day in the future, we do return to the present for some reason, what does it mean?"
Li Liang looked into Cain's eyes and hesitated: "Explain...what?"
"It means we will definitely not die," Cain patted the pillow, "At least we won't die until we return to the present."
"So?"
"No matter what we do, we will never die."
Li Liang said in surprise: "So you are seeking death and riding a motorcycle so fast?"
"Do you understand...?"
"I understand, I understand," Li Liang smiled, "But now we are not sure if it is you and me. What if it is really someone pretending to be?"
"..." Cain fell back on the bed.
Li Liang looked at her and said slowly: "It's the calm before the storm at best. The Time Observer just lost one round. I don't know when it will come back. According to the information revealed by Master Yuanshi, Li Shuang is in Xi'an." The information seen in the system, and the future you see through Elune's divine power... are all incomplete. It may be like what the Master Yuanshi said, they are worried about leaking too much information, causing uncontrollable variables, and being affected by time observers. It is possible to realize that in this new timeline, no one knows what will happen. All we have to do is move forward and witness the future full of variables with our own eyes."
"Um."
"Let's not talk about this anymore," Li Liang raised his chin at the amplifier, "I didn't realize that you are still an audiophile."
"What's the fever?" Cain glanced over, "Oh, by the way, I got a new CD a few days ago, let's have a listen." As she said that, she climbed out of bed, turned on the amplifier to warm up, and removed it from the cabinet. He dug out a CD and inserted it into the antique CD player next to the amplifier.
"What style?"
"I don't know. I got it from an antique dealer I've known for a long time. The old man has good taste." Cain stretched, turned off the light, took off his bath towel and walked to the closet.
The bedroom darkened, leaving only the faint blue light from the CD player. The dim lights from the workshop came in and shone on Cain, outlining her graceful body curves.
Li Liang stared blankly at her back and the insect tattoos between her waist and eyes. He didn't look away until she changed into her nightgown. Suddenly, he felt his throat was a little dry. He swallowed and asked, "Is there anything to drink?" "
"Yes," Cain threw over a bottle of beer, lazily climbed onto the bed, leaned against the bedside, took out the yellowed remote control and pressed the play button.
Slow-paced drums and guitar sounds came from the speakers in the corner, and then a slightly hoarse male voice sounded:
“I have traveled for miles around
Seems like everybody wanna put me down
Because I'm a bluesman
But Im a good man, understand..."
Li Liang was stunned for a moment and murmured: "B."
"Have you heard of it?"
"Well," Li Liang climbed onto the bed and leaned on the head of the bed side by side with Cain, "B. was the 'King of the Blues' in the 1990s. When I was in middle school, I would ride my bike home every day and always listen to his songs. "
Cain said nothing.
In the bedroom, there was only B.'s voice, and the dusk time, like grains of sand.
Li Liang slowly closed his eyes.
"I've traveled for miles around
(I've moved on a few miles)
Seems like everybody wanna put me down
(It seems like everyone wants to stop me in my tracks)
Because I'm a blues man
(Because I am a melancholic person with a depressed face)
But I'm a good man, understand
(But I’m not a bad person, you know)
I went down to the bus station
(I walked along the road to the bus stop)
Looked up on the wall
(Look at the direction indicated on the sign wall)
My money was too light, people
(I don’t have much money left)
Couldn't go nowhere at all
(Can’t go anywhere anymore)
I'm a blues man
(I am a melancholic person with a depressed face)
But a good man, understand
(But I’m not a bad person, you know)
The burdens that I carry oh~~ so heavy, you see
(The responsibility I bear is extremely heavy)
It seems like it ain't nobody in this great big world
(Seems like in this huge world)
That would wanna, wanna help old B
(No one is willing to help a weak person like me)
Hey ~but I will, I would be all right, people
(But it's all going to be okay)
Just give me a break, good things come
(Just give me a moment to breathe, and good luck will come)
The those who wait, And I've waited a long time
(Those endless waits, I have been waiting for a long time and suffered)
I'm a blues man but a good man, understand
(I am a melancholic person with a depressed face, but I am not a bad person, you know~)
…”

It wasn't until he was woken up by the tinkling noise that Li Liang realized that he had fallen asleep at some point.
The music was still playing, the lights were dim, and he felt like he was in another world.
Pursing his dry lips, he sat up, lifted the quilt covering himself and got out of bed, walked through the living room and walked into the repair shop.
Dangdangdang~
Cain put on dirty overalls, stood under the lifted Jeep off-road vehicle, and was smashing the chassis of the vehicle with a hammer.
When she heard the noise, she didn't look back and rubbed her cheek with her arm.
"wake up?"
Li Liang came closer, holding the wheel and taking a look: "What are you doing?"
"Didn't you ask me what I usually do?" Cain raised his right hand and shook it, "Repairing cars." At this moment, the end of her mechanical right arm was replaced with a special manipulator, which was two circles larger than usual, and the five fingers became Electric ratchet wrench.
"No wonder it smells like engine oil... What time is it now? How long have I been asleep?"
Cain raised his head to adjust a transfer screw and said casually: "At eight o'clock in the evening, you come to my house...um...to catch up on your sleep, right?"
eight o'clock...
He actually slept from noon to night.
Li Liang rubbed his face and got under the car, but found that he could not help at all. He had to wander around the workshop and flip through the tools on the shelf.
Soon, he found a bolt-action rifle under a pile of empty oil bottles. It was obviously old. The barrel and bolt were covered with rust. It was heavy and heavy.
He pulled out a piece of fine sandpaper, slowly and methodically polished the rusty area, and randomly found a topic: "Well...how is the gang integration thing going?"
"It's early. You told me to follow the gang's rules," Cain's voice came from under the car.
"Um."
"The integration is not difficult, it's just a matter of time. However, we have recently cleaned up a few families, and we still haven't found the hidden arms... It has probably been transferred to other cities."
Li Liang's hand paused for a moment: "The sky is unsealed? Why didn't I know?"
"The lockdown has not been lifted, but raw materials are needed to rebuild the city. SoftBank's cargo ship cannot be stopped. I told Li Ru about this. Sonoya found a few middlemen and got into the transportation company controlled by Sonoya. There is no news yet."
"Notify me of news."
"Are you sure?" Cain walked closer, pulled out the robot hand, put it on with another one, and moved his fingers, "You have to worry about such small things, don't be afraid of exhausting yourself... wait until we figure it out before telling you. you."
Li Liang was noncommittal: "What about the Natural Sect?"
"K is following. It has just been confirmed that the person in charge of the Zhongjing Diocese is the deputy secretary-general of the Human Destiny Alliance."
Alliance for the Destiny of Mankind?
Li Liang frowned. This residents' organization has a long history and has been actively working for the welfare of residents in Xiacheng District. It has broad public support. It is also very active in the post-war relief this time. It has contributed people and money to distribute relief funds.
However, he was not surprised at all by K's investigation results.
When Li Chengshu was still alive, the group had already discovered that the director of the Supervision and Enforcement Bureau had the shadow of the Alliance of Human Destiny behind him, but no one could imagine the existence of the Time Observer at that time.
"what's next?"
Cain got back under the car: "The information obtained showed that this man's only weakness is women. Sonoya picked a smart girl and arranged for them to meet by chance in a few days."
At this time, the sound of the bracelet vibrating came.
"Fuck, it's endless."
Li Liang smiled: "Is it Yuan Quan again?"
After a moment, Cain approached and handed over the bracelet: "You sent me a message this time. You can read it yourself."
Li Liang took the bracelet, touched the chip, and a message popped up: "Sister Cain, the new season of "Hans and His Friends" is not only a TV series, but also a breakthrough for completely controlling the Activision family. Sorry, I can only say this much, I know that the Twin Father Gods are in Zhongjing, and I implore you to relay this message. I only need five minutes to state my thoughts to Him face to face."
After reading the message, he smiled and said, "Believe it or not, only 'Sister Cain' in this message was written by Yuan Quan."
Cain said impatiently: "If it weren't for Yuan Quan, I would definitely kill Andrea."
"You said...are the people from the Temple of Gods and the Hall of Valor trying to kill me?" Li Liang put down his bracelet, lowered his head and continued to clean the gun.
"certainly."
"Then I'll give them a chance," Li Liang stood up, picked up the bolt-action rifle, tilted his head to aim, and said softly, "How about we go to Rocky Mountain City for a late-night snack?"
"Are you okay?" Cain raised his eyebrows, "How much strength do you have left, don't really die."
"Are you afraid of death?"
Cain thought seriously for a moment and said with a determined tone: "I am more afraid of Yuan Quan's serial calls than death."
"Set off."
As soon as Li Liang let go, he bolted the rifle and disappeared instantly.
next moment.
It appeared on the shelves without much fanfare.
Thanks for the tip to the poor guy whose name I can’t find, and thanks to all my friends for their votes.
