Alice's Report

Around 8 a. m., Yang Zhen'er woke up and looked at Tang Baona, who was sleeping on the other side, with some curiosity. Before, when she lived in Chongyun Village, if she didn't stay up all night, Nana would usually wake up around 6 or 7 a. m. and wake her up too.

Of course, even if I stay up late, Nana usually wakes up first in the morning, and then I drag her out of bed to wash up and have breakfast.

Nana actually woke up later than her today?

Yang Zhen'er was both surprised and excited. She leaned over, pinched Tang Baona's nose, and shouted, "Nana! Lazybones! Get up! The sun's already high in the sky! The universe's exploded! The world's ending!"

Tang Baona pried Yang Zhen'er's hands off, her eyes still closed, and groaned in pain, "Don't bother me, I'm so sleepy. I didn't fall asleep until after four in the morning. I'm going to sleep a little longer. Go play by yourself!"

"You didn't fall asleep until after four o'clock?" Yang Zhen'er was stunned for a moment, then leaned her head closer, half-lying on Tang Baona. Judging from the way Tang Baona's eyelids were barely open, she was really exhausted and didn't seem to be lying to herself.

"Wait a minute, Nana, didn't you sleep with me? How come you didn't fall asleep until after 4 a. m.? That doesn't make sense. You always fall asleep and wake up faster than me! Nana, Nana, did you get up in the middle of the night to do something naughty, Nana?"

Yang Zhen'er shook her a few times but received no response. After a while, she leaned closer to look and found that Tang Baona had fallen asleep again, clearly exhausted.

Having no other choice, Yang Zhen'er had to get up by herself.

After washing up and going downstairs, I found Liu Shiling and Little Apple sitting in the living room, both holding an iPad. It seemed that Little Apple was explaining some knowledge about birds and animals to Little Bell.

"Good morning, Fairy Sister! Breakfast is in the kitchen!" Liu Shiling turned around and greeted Yang Zhen'er when she heard footsteps.

After greeting the two of them and saying good morning, Yang Zhen'er went into the kitchen and picked up the still warm soy milk and fried dough sticks. The fried dough sticks were quite delicious, and the soy milk was sweet enough, but they still didn't taste as good Chef Xiang's meat buns or beef soup.

While eating her fried dough sticks, Yang Zhen'er sat down next to the "Bell Apple" group and asked, "Who bought the fried dough sticks and soy milk? Lao Xia or 'Big Guy'?"

"It was Roast Chicken Wing Sister who bought it. Big Uncle went fishing with Uncle Fu early this morning," Liu Shiling quickly replied.

"What about Lao Xia?" Yang Zhen'er asked. "Where did she go?"

"It seems Sister Bing went to bed very late last night and is still a bit sleepy, so she went to catch up on her sleep," Little Apple said.

"Lao Xia also went to bed very late last night?" Yang Zhen'er asked thoughtfully as she slowly chewed on her fried dough stick.

Around ten o'clock, Xia Libing, who had caught up on a nap, came downstairs. Yang Zhen'er immediately went over and whispered, "Lao Xia, Lao Xia, what time did you go to sleep last night?"

"Around four o'clock," Xia Libing said.

"Huh? Have you seen your sister Nana? She didn't go to sleep until four o'clock last night!"

Xia Libing nodded. "Yes, Sister Nana and I had late-night snacks and chatted until after four o'clock."

"Nana doesn't sleep, she gets up in the middle of the night to chat with you? What are you talking about?" Yang Zhen'er asked, puzzled.

Xia Libing said, "Your snoring is too loud, it keeps her awake."

"I snore..." Yang Zhen'er's eyes widened in astonishment and surprise. She actually snores? And even disturbs Nana's sleep? She'd lived with Nana for so many years, and Nana had never mentioned it before! Had Nana been tolerating her snoring all this time?

The next moment, Xia Libing said, "I was just kidding, Sister Nana didn't say you snore."

Yang Zhen'er was taken aback, then laughed and cried at the same time, "Lao Xia, your joking skills now... are even scarier than when you used to tell lame jokes, it scared me to death!"

"Have you had breakfast?" Xia Libing suddenly asked.

"We've eaten. By the way, Lao Xia, will Chef Xiang be back to cook lunch for us?"

"He's probably sleeping now and won't wake up until the afternoon, so he probably won't have time to make dinner." Xia Libing naturally steered the conversation towards food.

"What are we having for lunch?" Yang Zhen'er scratched her head.

"We can go to town and see if we should try 'Youlong Restaurant' or some other newly opened restaurants," Xia Libing said.

"Let's go with 'Youlong Restaurant'. You Meng's cooking is pretty reliable," Yang Zhen'er said, stroking her chin.

At this moment, Liu Shiling walked over and gently tugged at the hem of her clothes, saying, "Old Fairy Sister, last night Little Apple Sister, Roast Chicken Wing Sister performance. Can you be our audience member and see how amazing it is?"

"No way, Lao Xia does crosstalk too? Come on, give us a performance." Yang Zhen'er was naturally very interested.

So when Tang Baona came downstairs yawning, she saw Yang Zhen'er lying on the sofa, clutching her stomach, looking pained, while Lao Xia, Little Apple, and Little Bell were all gathered around the sofa, looking concerned.

She was startled and quickly ran over, anxiously asking, "Zhen'er, Zhen'er, what's wrong?"

But when they got closer, they found that Yang the Third wasn't in pain at all; he was actually laughing so hard he was doubled over. He was lying on the sofa, clutching his stomach, laughing and saying, "Oh my god... who came up with this joke... Little Apple is so talented... it's perfect for Lao Xia... I'm dying of laughter, I can't take it anymore... you Lao Xia, you're so naughty..."

She then realized that Yang the Third had burst out laughing after watching a crosstalk performance written by Little Apple, which included both Lao Xia and Little Chubby Girl.

The three people standing beside them, including Lao Xia, didn't look concerned. Little Apple was thinking with a smile on her face, while Lao Xia and Little Chubby Girl were both confused and didn't quite understand why Zhen'er was laughing so sadly.

After waking up from his deep sleep that night, Xiang Kun did not immediately return to Lao Xia and Tang Baona's place, but instead talked with Alice first.

During this period of slumber, he had many things to do—or rather, he instructed Alice to have many things to do.

Most importantly, there are six main tasks:

1. Observe the changes in extrasensory information during the process of "Super-Linked Object" and "Emotion-Infused Object" completing all association steps while Xiang Kun is asleep, and attempt to summarize and generalize a general model based on this;

2. Observe the changes in extrasensory information representing the bodies of individuals who may establish connections with various "Emotion-Infused Object" within the secondary network, and what differences exist in extrasensory information between non-biological "Emotion-Infused Object" and "Super-Linked Object";

3. During his sleep, did any changes occur in the extrasensory information of those "Super-Linked Object" and "Emotion-Infused Object" that had already established connections?

4. Try to simulate the previous operation where the Little Chubby Girl accidentally awakened Xiang Kun's dormant consciousness through anger;

5. Monitor the situation of Mr. Liang, John, and the other two "Mutated Creature" at the bottom of the Guarding Prosperity Building. If the "Mutated Creature" devour each other again, record the process of changes in their extrasensory information.

6. Attempt to record and analyze changes in Xiang Kun's extrasensory information during sleep.

Because when Xiang Kun was asleep, it was the time when his body truly mutated and evolved, and also the time when the "Super-Sensing Item System" was upgraded and changed. Previously, after he drank blood and fell asleep, he was unable to observe himself, and Lao Xia was unable to enter the "Hyper-Sensory State" and observe the cognitive information of various things in the Hyper-Sensory State. But after Alice integrated into the "Super-Sensing Item System" and was able to analyze Super-Sensory information to a certain extent, the most suitable candidate for this matter was found.

Alice completed Tasks 1, 2, and 3 very well. Based on the changes in extrasensory information she observed, she summarized the commonalities and created a basic model for establishing Super-Sensory Link between "Super-Linked Object".

As for "Emotion-Infused Object," it is difficult to find common patterns. There is no universal model; there are only two-level networks with models applicable to each different type of "Emotion-Infused Object."

However, Xiang Kun was somewhat disappointed that, judging from Alice's attempts, even as a "Super-Linked Object," she could not replicate or influence herself—she could not, like a "copier," directly copy the "Super-Sensory Link" to similar targets within the influence range of the "Super-Linked Object."

Establishing "Super-Sensory Link" still requires Xiang Kun's personal involvement.

However, this model is not useless. After Xiang Kun enters the "Hyper-Sensory State", he can directly use Alice's application model to quickly perform batch associations.

Just like a certain type of tungsten steel ball, Xiang Kun had already established Super-Sensory Link very quickly and skillfully, but he still needed to do it one by one.

Now, in the "Hyper-Sensory State," with Alice's assistance, as long as enough "Super-Linked Object" are arranged in advance, theoretically, as long as Xiang Kun establishes a connection with a tungsten steel ball through the application model, all tungsten steel balls of the same type within the influence range of the "Super-Linked Object" can establish a connection with Alice's help.

Alice can't become a fully intelligent "copier," but she can become a "printer" operated by Xiang Kun, mass-producing "Super-Linked Object."

Moreover, it can be used in a "Hyper-Sensory State." Theoretically, with the deployment of "Emotion-Infused Object" and "Super-Linked Object," he doesn't need to actually be present at the place where the Super-Sensory Link is established.

For example, he could place "Emotion-Infused Object" or "Super-Linked Object" into a factory that produces a certain type of tungsten steel beads for which he has already established Super-Sensory Link. In this way, others do not need to be in the factory, but can also use the model application under the "Hyper-Sensory State" for a fixed period of time to rely on Alice to instantly establish a connection with all the tungsten steel beads waiting to be shipped, mass-produce "Super-Linked Object", and unknowingly send them to various places.

With Alice's help, he can quickly become familiar with various simple mechanical and electronic product parts, such as small pieces of iron, plastic washers, screws, etc. With Alice's help in finding information, it won't be too difficult.

If contact can be successfully established, Alice should find the location of the production factory, and then find a way to send enough "Super-Linked Object" and "Emotion-Infused Object" there to mass-produce "Super-Linked Object".

This method requires minimal investment and is quite discreet; you don't need to manufacture any products yourself.

By then, his "Super-Linked Object" will be found on all kinds of electronic products, appliances, cars, etc., gradually spreading throughout the country and even the world. He can simulate a "Chongyun Village area" anytime, anywhere, and even the whole world will be his "Chongyun Village".

Of course, compared to his original idea of making Alice completely "automatic" and allowing her to directly "infect" other items of the same type wherever there are "Super-Linked Object," this method is still a bit slower.

In particular, deploying "Super-Linked Object" and "Emotion-Infused Object" in factories still requires some effort.

However, after discovering that people who were deeply influenced by the emotional projection of "Emotion-Infused Object" and entered the secondary network of "Emotion-Infused Object" could also be identified and descended upon by him as "Emotion-Infused Object" in a "Hyper-Sensory State," he also considered that perhaps some special methods could be used to more easily "Emotional Injection" and create contact points for "Emotion-Infused Object" through the influence of group emotional projection.

Of course, he wouldn't create this connection using an "Eight-Armed Eight-Eyed Wooden Carving," since Barbie Warrior's emotional intensity is too strong and the impact too great.

Appetite and joy are more universal.

In Tasks 2 and 3, Alice can only record the depth of extrasensory information she can perceive and collect, and record those changes, but she is not yet able to specifically analyze this extrasensory information to understand the essence of "Super-Sensory Link" and "Emotional Injection".

However, it can also be proven that during Xiang Kun's dormant period, not only will the new "Super-Linked Object" and "Emotion-Infused Object" complete the final stage of establishing connections, but the "Super-Linked Object" and "Emotion-Infused Object" that have already established connections will also be "updated" simultaneously, and their performance will be synchronized.

Mission 5 is a long-term surveillance mission. During Xiang Kun's period of slumber, Mr. Liang, John, and others at the foot of the Guarding Prosperity Building did not undergo any other changes.

However, Alice was unable to complete tasks 4 and 6.

During Xiang Kun's period of slumber, Alice tried to imitate the Little Chubby Girl to induce various emotions, but she was unable to guide the "Super-Linked Object" to the "hyper-excited state," and the simulated emotions could not be as intense and complex as those of the Little Chubby Girl. Therefore, she was unable to repeat what the Little Chubby Girl had done and was unable to awaken Xiang Kun's consciousness in the "Hyper-Sensory State," which was to be expected.

As for Task 6, observing Xiang Kun's extrasensory information, Alice was unable to obtain any records after observation. In her cognitive world, the cognitive information representing Xiang Kun was too complex and complicated. As long as she tried to access or analyze it, she would lose control as if she were being sucked into a black hole, making it impossible to understand.

It seemed that the cognitive information representing Xiang Kun himself was far greater than the sum of all other cognitive information in that extrasensory information world.

Xiang Kun this either, because in his "Hyper-Sensory State," he also had difficulty observing himself.

However, the failure of two tasks and the imperfect completion of three tasks left Alice, who had boasted before Xiang Kun fell asleep and confidently declared, "If there's even the slightest problem, please rest assured, boss," feeling somewhat depressed and embarrassed.

However, Alice, now appearing before Xiang Kun in her "Little Lao Xia" persona to report on the progress of the mission, showed no embarrassment whatsoever. Instead, she tilted her head slightly and said with a touch of pride, "Boss! I saved Sister Nana last night!"
