Chapter 13: Confession

"Alright." Xia Yue nodded, then walked to the balcony and closed the window.

Yan Mo and Chen Bin watched her actions with confusion.

The living room darkened but wasn't completely black.

Xia Yue returned to her original seat, looked at them, and said, "Virtual screen, activate."

"Oh my god!" Chen Bing, who had initially looked indifferent, immediately stood up in surprise upon seeing this.

Yan Mo was also surprised but still managed to keep his cool, asking Xia Yue, "So, this is what you wanted to show me?"

"Yes, this is the system I linked up with the day before yesterday. I really couldn't complete the tasks it assigned me, but it just wouldn't stop nagging in my brain, seriously affecting my life.

So, I've decided to hand it over to the country. But I'm worried about encountering people with ill intentions. I'm aware of your background, and also heard from former classmates that you joined the military. Therefore, I thought you would have access to the highest levels of command, so giving it directly to them would be less risky. That's why I sought you out." Xia Yue explained to him why she had chosen to find him.

"Is this some kind of special effect?" asked Chen Bin.

"It's not special effects, it's real. And there are a lot of high-tech items here. As long as we complete tasks and earn Cosmic Points, we can redeem them. Take a look." Xia Yue opened the shopping page in the system, and the virtual screen followed her.

Once she reached Yan Mo's side, Xia Yue crouched down to show him the page.

Yan Mo gazed at the assorted high-tech weapons, spaceships, and mechas being displayed.

"Cool spaceship, this weapon looks great!" Chen Bin also leaned over to take a peek, his eyes glinting as he looked at the items on the screen.

Xia Yue clicked on a mecha. A three-dimensional image of a mecha appeared next to an introduction. After glancing at it for a moment, she went on to show a few other items.

"You believe me now, right? This isn't special effects." Xia Yue looked at them and stated.

Yan Mo looked at her, took a deep breath, and said, "Miss Xia Yue, this matter you've brought to light is highly unusual and hugely important to our country. So, I need to have a good talk with my superiors."

"Okay, I won't be dissected will I?" Xia Yue nodded in agreement, then asked with a hint of worry.

"Miss Xia Yue, our country prohibits human experimentation. There won't be any of what you imagine, and you won't be imprisoned either." Yan Mo explained earnestly.

"Alright then, I get it. Please hurry up and find someone. I really can't stand the nagging by that system any longer and it prevents me from sleeping." Xia Yue cheerfully said.

This was the first time Yan Mo had been hurried to leave by a woman. Usually, they hoped for him to stay longer.

"Alright, we're leaving right away. Please make sure your contact remains open." Yan Mo nodded.

"Sure, I'll be home all day today." Xia Yue nodded.

Afterwards, Xia Yue saw Yan Mo and Chen Bin out of the villa.

"Alright, now it depends on their responses. As long as the people from the country are not idiots, they will help." Xia Yue leaned back in the sofa and said to the system.

[Host, you've worked hard.] The system responded.

"It's nothing, it's just mutual benefits." said Xia Yue.

When Yan Mo left Xia Yue's place, he asked Chen Bin to drive straight to his top superior.

His superior was quite surprised to see Yan Mo.

Without wasting any time, Yan Mo told him about Xia Yue.

"Are you saying this is true?" His superior stood up in shock upon hearing Yan Mo's words, looking at him.

"It's true, and Chen Bin was there at the time too. The data of these objects she showed me was much more complex than anything we have.

I've checked her background, and this isn't something an ordinary person could have created." Yan Mo nodded.

"Alright, I got it. I'll report this to higher authority." The superior, knowing Yan Mo's character, immediately responded seriously. Although he found it hard to believe, he didn't want to miss out on it. If it is true, the benefit it would bring to the development of the country was clear.

Therefore, he needed to report it at all costs.
