Su Mei Lin

"are you sure it's gonna be alright system?"

i asked as both me and system were now inside a huge mansion.

<you asked for a solution, didn't you?>

system replied in a sly voice which annoyed me.

I started wondering if this plan would actually work, when suddenly someone calls me out.

"I hope I didn't make you wait for to long, young man."

it was a middle aged man twirling his moustache. beside him were his wife and a little girl.

" I can't thank you enough for saving my little mei!!"

he said in a happy tone.

"tell me!! is there anything I can do for you?"

.

.

.

'.....it worked?'

*4 hours prior*

In the novel 'heroines are acting little strange' there were several elite families. Among them were families of a villain and two heroines.

but there was only one family that was called the elite of elites, the Su family. If there is any family that can save me from the villain and heroines, it is this family.

but the question is how am I gonna make the most powerful family of this country owe me a favor.

<host when there's no door, you have to break the wall and make one yourself>

' ....I'm pretty sure that's not how this idiom goes.'

<host you only have one week left!!>

system said in a robotic voice.

"w-what??? you never said anything about a time limit!!!"

as I said that system replied.

<host there is no time limit but events have to happen in the time they happened, you can't change the timeline>

system said as if this was the most obvious thing in this world....wait it actually is.

before I knew it, I was right outside the Su family house.

"alright now that I'm here, what now?"

<it's actually pretty easy host, you just have to ....(inaudable gibberish)...>

last words that system said were inaudible.

.

.

"huh?"

<oh you didn't hear, you just have to ....na...h.>

this time it started to annoy me.

"JUST SAY IT GOD DAMN IT!!!"

I suddenly realised I shouldn't be making so much noise right now.

<you have to kidnap her.>

".....wut?"

"kidnap the daughter of Su family?"

i asked one more time just to confirm I'm not hearing things.

<yes>

but even after the second time I heard the same thing, system is giving me an idea that's gonna make me into an actual criminal.

*after some heated argument both came to the final conclusion to just go with the plan. Mainly due to one week limit.*

.

.

<host the plan goes like, you'll kidnap the 10 year old daughter of Su family, Su Mei Lin, and then bring her back claiming you saved her and with that you'll earn the trust of Su Qin yang, the current head of the family. Pretty simple no?>

as system finished explaining his plan, I look at him in disbelief.

".....yeah...real easy....kidnap the daughter and save her how simple."

I said with words brimming with sarcasm.

<right!>

but system said clearly oblivious to my sarcasm.

"..... sigh.... let's just get this done with."

with that said I entered the mansion...which was a little too easy?

there weren't any guards and security, this made me think am I really at the right place.

'hmm ...wait, now that I think about it, the Su family didn't join to the party in the story.'

as I entered from from the window connected to her bedroom, I saw a man wearing all black with white mask standing near her bed.

" you're late."

he said with a tone full of annoyance.

"well, at least you didn't take all that long in the bathroom like last time."

I came to the conclusion that maybe my all black outfit is similar to his partners.

"I already took care of the guards, now let's just take her to that man."

as he was about to lift her up, he stopped.

'shit!! maybe he realised, I'm not his partner.'

as I got worried about the situation, system said.

<um host->

but I decided to ignore him for now.

'not now system, can't you see me in a pinch right now!!!'

I was talking to system with my mind when the black man looked at me and said.

"you hold her, I've been taking care of everything till now. while you were relieving yourself in the toilet, now move your fatass and do some work."

he said as he passed by my side and jumped right out of the window.

"what are you doing, hurry up!!"

he said in an angry tone. I nodded as I lift up the girl and followed him through.

' isn't it great system, the mission kidnap was a success with no problem.'

<uh host, as I was saying->

just when system was about to finish his sentence something terrible happened.

"shit."

I stopped dead on my tracks.

<what happened host? did you finally realised??>

yes, I finally realised.... I gotta go poop.

<.....>

I don't know why but system became speechless for a while.

<host....you can't be serious?>

I don't know if it was my imagination, but system sounded ... disappointed and that too a lot.

"can you blame me I-"

but just as I was about to tell system how this is a phenomenon that happens without warning, the man in black interrupted me.

"you!! who are you??"

as he said that, I noticed someone else beside him, both of them in attack stance.

'SHIT!!! I NEED TO POOP NOT FIGHT!!!'

as I was getting more desperate for toilet, system said something that made things more disastrous.

<host you didn't really had to kidnap her, she was literally being abducted by real criminals. all you had to do was save her and that was the end of it.>

". . . (buffering). . ."

"hey!! say something or else we will attack!!"

the real crime partner said. On the same time mei started opening her eyes.

<host! she is waking up! hurry!>

by now she was fully awake and confused about the situation.

"ah!"

she realised that she was being carried by me and infront of us were two scary looking guys, as she was about to say something I shushed her and gave her the best smile possible.

" I know you have many questions young lady, just give me two minutes and I'll take care of this."

as I said this I used the skill I got as a reward from before.

"FLASH!!"

as I used the spell, no bright light came, instead both the enemies froze up.

[skill: FLASH]

(note: even though the name is flash, it doesn't produce bright light, instead it just freeze your opponent for five minutes.)

(reason for malfunction, it was used as a reward right at the moment it was made, that's why it was given a random name after(???))

after using flash skill, I just kicked both of them on their faces making them unconscious.

"well there it goes."

but before I could celebrate my victory, all the guards of Su family surrounded me.

<I guess that guy just made all of them unconscious, make sense. Knowing they are the strongest security that can't be breached with force, the only way is to get them to sleep but even that would only work for 15 minutes.>

' they're so many of them, why do they call them guards? why not just call them an army!!'

before I could explain, the young girl shouted.

"wait!! he's the one that saved me!! they're the bad guys!!"

saying that she pointed her finger at two suspicious looking unconscious guys.

*now to present*

and now here I am so close to my goal.

<quick host!! tell him you want to join the party hosted by the Jiang family.>

even system said with high expectations.

"um ....can I...."

"hmm yes, don't be shy."

"....can I.....CAN I USE THE BATHROOM REAL QUICK!!!"

I could see system doing a face-palm from the side of my eye but, a man's gotta do the job.

"ah...sure.... it's right at that corner of the hall."

"THANKS!!"

I said as I vanished from there.
