• Su Qiao assured Su Xinran that she had nearly finished researching her launcher and would soon be able to make it.

Su Qiao tricked Su Xinran into paying her 30,000 for a signal transmitter she never intended to make properly. After Su Xinran left, 444 uncovered that a powerful man was helping her behind the scenes, and Su Qiao looked toward Su Xinran’s balcony as she prepared to learn more.

• Su Qiao promised to finish Su Xinran’s signal transmitter and accepted her 30,000 transfer.
• Su Qiao told 444 she planned to make a random device and pass it off as the transmitter.

• Su Qiao idly handled the signal transmitter at her desk while debating whether to contact Renault.
• 444 discovered that a formidable man was secretly helping Su Xinran, and Su Qiao went to the balcony to look toward hers.

Su Qiao learned that Su Xinran had been hiding the mysterious Li Huaiyu, who could sense 444’s scans and might possess a rare Mental Ability. Suspecting a hidden Dark World and a conspiracy behind her original body’s death, Su Qiao decided to investigate and try cultivating Mental Power herself.

• Su Qiao learned that Su Xinran had brought the injured Li Huaiyu back to the apartment to retrieve something from his hiding place.
• 444 told Su Qiao that Li Huaiyu had sensed its scan and nearly exposed it.
• Su Qiao and 444 considered whether Li Huaiyu possessed a Mental Ability and whether the world contained a hidden Dark World.
• 444 warned Su Qiao that Li Huaiyu might be connected to her original body’s death and agreed not to scan him again unless necessary.
• Su Qiao told 444 to watch Su Xinran closely and decided to try cultivating Mental Power.

Su Qiao developed a cultivation technique suited to her current body and continued training while 444 investigated the world and monitored Su Xinran and Li Huaiyu. Her modified transmitter unexpectedly connected to the same signal as before, where Renault was still searching for the mysterious person he had spoken with.

• Su Qiao found that her old Mental Ability method did not work, but adapted a technique from the Cultivation World into one she could cultivate with.
• Su Qiao trained and studied advanced technology while asking Su Xinran for materials in small, varied amounts.

• Renault complained that two months of searching across the Federation and Saint Ya had failed to locate the person behind the signal.
• Renault ordered Rui He to find the mysterious person and told him not to cause harm before Renault could handle the person himself.

Reno changed course to pursue Li Huaiyu, then learned that the mysterious online friend who had breached the Military Department's Defense System had returned. He chatted with Su Qiao and wrestled with whether his months of searching for her meant he had missed her.

• Reno ordered his ship to change course so he could personally deal with Li Huaiyu, whose trail lay twenty days away.

• Su Qiao recognized Reno's online identity and asked whether he needed anything.
• Reno told Su Qiao he had enjoyed their previous conversation, and she teased him by asking if he had missed her.
• Reno recalled spending two months searching for Su Qiao and wondered whether his preoccupation meant he missed her.

Su Qiao grew wary after Leinor confessed he had missed her and tried to find her, so she asked 444 to protect her identity and track him down. Unable to locate him, Leinor asked whether Su Qiao was a male or female beastman, leaving her confused by the strange terms.

• Leinor told Su Qiao he had missed her, thought about her often, and tried to find her, even going to fight Saint Ya's army in frustration.

• Leinor concluded that Su Qiao did not know his identity and had stumbled into their chat by accident.
• Leinor asked Su Qiao whether she was a male beastman or a female beastman, and she wondered what those terms meant.

Su Qiao and 444 concluded that Reno was likely an alien from a highly advanced star system, and Su Qiao worried that he might discover her planet. She then wondered whether the powerful man beside Su Xinran might also be an alien.

• Su Qiao reasoned that Renault was a powerful military figure who favored solving problems through force and warfare.
• After Renault sent several anxious messages asking whether he had offended her, Su Qiao replied that she was a man who picked his feet and told him to hate her and stay away.

Su Qiao told Renault that she was a man, but he still insisted on meeting her and asked for her address. As Renault feared she would disappear again, 444 noticed that his reaction resembled Doggo’s determination to cling to Su Qiao.

• Su Qiao questioned why Renault still wanted to meet her and said they were probably far apart.
• Renault asked Su Qiao for her address, determined to find her after nearly two months of searching.
• Renault feared Su Qiao would disappear again and resolved to find her first.
• 444 suggested Renault’s behavior resembled Doggo’s attempts to cling to Su Qiao.

• Su Qiao told 444 that Renault’s life would improve once she dealt with Li Huaiyu and Su Xinran.

444 showed Su Qiao what happened after her previous plane ended, while Renault continued searching for the online friend he knew as Clumsy Bear. The chapter left Renault admitting that he had a favorable impression of her, though he did not yet call it love.

• 444 offered Su Qiao a recording of what happened to Yu Ansheng after the last plane, then sent it to her and slipped away.
• Renault summoned Rui He and asked him to search the address Cute Clumsy Bear had provided.
• Rui He found that the address did not match any known location in the Federation or Saint Ya Empire.
• Renault set aside the search when he realized he could not contact her and would have to wait for her to return.
• Rui He asked Renault whether he had fallen for Clumsy Bear, and Renault said he only had a favorable impression of her.

Reno learned that Li Huaiyu was hiding on Blue Planet, where intelligent beings resembled his people and might provide suitable bodies for their Immortality Project. He ordered Rui He to test them and, if they proved suitable, seize control of the planet while preventing Li Huaiyu’s people from making contact.

• Rui He told Reno that Li Huaiyu was hiding on an unfamiliar planet called Blue Planet.
