The simplicity of this [Socializing] panel is exactly the same as the functionality of the [Item] Backpack and the Game Prompt.

Regardless of which Deity is in charge of this, he must be a minimalist.

After bringing up the [Socializing] panel, there are only two sections.

A player is marked with the name [Player], but it's currently empty.

Another one is marked as [Non- Player]...

There was a name lying inside.

"Pankto von Valetti".

After focusing on the name, I was surprised to find that I could choose the absurd function of "[location]".

However, if we focus our attention on the [Player] module...

Besides prompting Lin Yu to "add friends" and fill in his "information" and confirm his "code name", there are also two other functions: [Trade] and [Conversation].

With special Team-up Card, remote team-up can even be achieved.

After seeing the [Socializing] panel, Lin Yu instantly understood many things.

He understood why those organizations made apps, but did so haphazardly, and why he rarely saw the bigwigs talking in them.

Lin Yu also understood why the "Freedom Alliance" hadn't made an app.

And why do "gatherings" exist?

First, we need to consider Player who haven't enabled the [Socializing] function, and features like "Group Chat" and "auction"... are not included in this built-in [Socializing] function.

Secondly...

Since it's meant to cater to them, then it's fine as long as it's usable.

However, enabling this [Socializing] function actually gave Lin Yu a headache.

How do I use this?

He's already grateful he can create alt accounts on the forum; how is he supposed to create them now?

If I can't create a secondary account...

Which identity should he allocate his valuable [Socializing] skills to?

Lin Yu became conflicted.

There is no good answer to this question at the moment.

Therefore, Lin Yu chose to put it aside.

"Alright, I cleared the game! Time to go home and play some visual novels!"

Just then, Chen Zhuo's voice rang out, and he looked at Li Nian and Lin Yu in the back row.

"Thank you both... I've acquired a lot of Item this time. I'll sell the Item to the client later and pay you my share along with the original balance."

Chen Zhuo spoke seriously, Li Nian narrowed her eyes.

"Okay, but... don't back out, okay?"

"Although you're not yet aware of my methods, if you try to deny it, I can show you what I'm capable of."

Chen Zhuo immediately replied, "How could that be, sister? Honesty is the most important thing to me!"

"Before the next Instance, I'll definitely bring you what you want... If I fail to do so, you can just... just empty my house!"

Chen Zhuo said earnestly.

Lin Yu gently patted the back of Chen Zhuo's car seat.

"I trust you—so, it's a pleasure working with you."

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Nian responded with perfect understanding and snapped her fingers.

"Withdraw, Zhu Ming!"

Then, Chen Zhuo felt a sudden lightness inside the car.

The two figures vanished without a trace.

Chen Zhuo was filled with respect.

"As expected of a master, even their exit is extraordinary!"

In the green belt outside the old man's car park, Lin Yu looked helplessly at Li Nian, who was panting heavily, and patted her back to catch her breath.

"Why not just leave normally? Why make it so fancy?"

It was obvious that Li Nian used some kind of Item just now.

Using that Item, she dragged Lin Yu and they actually escaped underground.

Then, Li Nian dragged Lin Yu several meters across the field before emerging from the green belt.

After watching Chen Zhuo drive away in his vehicle, the two stood up.

Having rested, Li Nian put her hands on her hips and declared confidently, "Oh, this is about Emotional Value, you know... This little fatty cost a lot of money, I have to make him feel that his money was well spent."

Then, Li Nian reached into his waistband and pulled out a bottle of what looked like high-end foreign liquor.

"Of course, Mingming-jie... you introduced me to such a great job, you'll definitely get your referral fee!"

Li Nian's address sounded rather cheesy.

Lin Yu was somewhat surprised.

"This is?"

"This is the best vintage of the 'Wailing' series from the Mist Island Manor," Li Nian said, stuffing it into Lin Yu's arms. "Don't be shy, we're all family now."

Ownership of the [Item] has been transferred to Lin Yu.

Lin Yu shook his head.

"No, I can accept the wine, but... aren't I still in my probationary period?"

"Although it was a lucky accident, Brother Wang and I did indeed complete an entire Instance with you—of course I'd be happy for you to join us, and I think Brother Wang's opinion is pretty clear as well."

Li Nian said with a smile, "Your joining the organization is just a matter of going through the motions... And since we're called the 'Freedom Alliance,' we definitely don't need these rules and regulations at all!"

"So, you're now one of us."

Lin Yu shook his head again.

"No, no, I appreciate your kindness, but I don't intend to join the 'Freedom Alliance' on this condition—I still want to choose another path: join a top-level organization and then publicly announce my withdrawal."

"So... please help me tell Brother Wang to ask him to ask Pan Yuqiang to keep my matter a secret for a while... I think Pan Yuqiang would be happy to do so."

He spoke seriously, Li Nian's smile gradually disappeared.

"Are you serious, Zhu Ming?"

At this moment, a hint of worry appeared on Li Nian's face.

She guessed which organization Lin Yu wanted to join—it wasn't hard to guess.

It's the "Psychology Society" of course!

Otherwise, why would Lin Yu have mentioned Pan Yuqiang, this "Citalopram," just now?

Lin Yu nodded calmly.

"You probably already know about my past, so I don't want to run away anymore."

Li Nian hurriedly said, "But it was just a misunderstanding, wasn't it? Fluoxetine wasn't targeting you."

Lin Yu responded gently.

"Knowing that it was all a 'misunderstanding' did not make me feel at ease."

"I understand perfectly well that Fluoxetine isn't targeting me...but that's precisely why I'm targeting her."

Lin Yu spoke calmly, his tone and expression remaining composed.

But the calmer one's expression and tone are when uttering such things, the more insane it seems.

Li Nian stared at Lin Yu for a long time, and after realizing that his mind was not going to change, she let out a sigh of relief, and her expression suddenly relaxed.

"Alright, in that case... I'll enjoy and look forward to your exciting adventure!"

As she spoke, she pulled out a magnifying glass from her pocket.

"This is for you too."

"What is this again?"

Lin Yu took the magnifying glass, and the Item Name "[Survey Magnifying Glass]" popped up, showing some curiosity.

"Oh, this isn't a gift for you... consider it a favor."

"Don't you and that 'Detective' Sherlock have a mutual friend? Could you give this to him for me? I couldn't resist taking it on the train earlier."
