Signing In At The Civil Affairs Bureau, I Was Rewarded With A Gorgeous Wife

Such a sinister object, Song Yun dared not to carelessly leave it in the house. If someone were to be beguiled by the energy emitted by the domino, the consequences were something he could not bear no matter what!

But where should he put it?

After all, it seemed that the object had already been claimed by someone. If left outside and stolen by a stranger, could he plausible say it was lost when the other party came asking for it?

They might even think he made up a lie wanting to keep it for himself.

Song Yun sat on the sofa, staring at the domino wrapped in red cloth on the table, lost in thought.

"What are you staring at a piece of red cloth for?"

Without realizing it was nearing nightfall, Song Bu came back from the research institute and saw his eldest son looking distressedly at a piece of red cloth.

Moreover, the living room was unusually dim, with no lights on, making the scene as terrifying as it could be!

Song Bu frowned slightly as he turned on the light, wondering if Song Yun had been bewitched.

That shouldn't be the case.

The kid was quite knowledgeable about metaphysical studies, wasn't he?

If he really had provoked something, as a scientist, how was he to deal with it?

Yes!

Song Bu had always firmly believed he was a great scientist, and he did not dismiss these metaphysical matters.

In his view, the so-called unseen things were merely specific magnetic fields and energy bodies, not a big deal at all.

"Huh? What time is it?"

Song Yun looked around blankly. Just as he saw his father reaching for the red cloth, he suddenly shouted with agitation, "Don't touch it!"

"???"

Song Bu had already grabbed it and gave Song Yun a curious look, feeling the approximate shape of the object through the cloth, much like a dagger, but it seemed to be made of a very special material.

Just as he was about to unwrap it to take a closer look, Song Yun snatched it back from him.

"This object is very dangerous, and nobody in our family must touch it!"

Song Yun said, gasping for breath.

"Your dad hasn't seen anything yet."

Song Bu scoffed, "It's just a dagger, right? Let me have a look. The material doesn't seem like bronze, iron, or steel, it feels slightly warm to the touch—is it possibly made of jade?"

"Dad! I'm not lying to you, this thing is too evil. Once you touch it, you will be influenced. Today...after I touched it today, my whole personality changed, and I only wanted to possess it forever!"

Song Yun said seriously, "For the safety of our home, no one can touch it!"

"Alright, alright, if you don't want me to see it, I won't look."

Song Bu shrugged helplessly, "According to science, the thing in your hand is probably emitting radiation due to its material, which can affect a person's thinking. You better not keep it at home. If Qing Qing gets exposed to this thing at this critical moment, the consequences would be unthinkable."

"Yeah, I'll find a place..."

Song Yun suddenly slapped his forehead as this thought came to him.

Right!!!

Didn't he have the System?

Inside the System, he had his own space; it was just that Song Yun rarely used it, so he hadn't thought of it for a moment.

He went to the study with the red cloth and conversed with the System in his mind.

He had only ever retrieved items from the System Space before, and had never actually stored anything.

"System, how do I store items in the space?"

"Ding! Host has a question needing answers. Based on the complexity of the question, please deposit ten thousand system points in advance!"

The System's mechanical voice rang out, and Song Yun's expression was momentarily stunned.

???

What's going on???

Was the System just now asking him for points?

Could it be that when he had questions needing answers, he could ask the System in this way???

Fuck!!!

How had he not known about this feature before!

Perhaps sensing Song Yun's thoughts, the System's voice sounded again.

"Ding! There are many more functions for the host to discover within the System. The host has passed the newbie stage; the System no longer has the right to interfere with any of the host's thoughts."

What the fuck???

Is this the beginning of a blame game?

Song Yun suddenly felt as if someone had punched him in the chest, and it was really depressing.

"Help me figure out how to store things in the System Space!"

"Ding! The host needs to pay 10,000 points. Confirm payment?"

"Pay!"

"Ding! 10,000 points successfully paid!"

"Ding! The host only needs to cover the item to be stored with their hand and open the System Space to complete storage."

???

Just for something this simple, I spent 10,000 points???

System daddy, you've really... you've really turned a bit evil!

Screwing over my points without any mercy!

He sighed, covered the red cloth with his right hand, closed his eyes to open the System Space, and by the time he opened his eyes, the red cloth and the domino it wrapped were gone.

He glanced at the space again, and saw the red cloth floating there.

"System, can you answer all questions?"

"Ding! As long as it does not involve the system itself, all questions can be answered!"

"So, does this domino truly hold the secret to becoming an immortal?"

When Song Yun asked this, he couldn't help but swallow his saliva.

After all, this thing really was beyond his comprehension!

"Ding! To answer this question, the host needs to pay 500,000 points. Will you pay?"

"500,000??? Why don't you just rob me!"

Song Yun lost his calm, if this went on, he would lose nearly four-fifths of his points!

But the secret, like ants, incessantly crawled all over Song Yun's heart.

"Pay!"

"Ding! 500,000 points successfully paid!"

"Ding! This domino indeed holds the secret to becoming an immortal."

???

Song Yun felt as if he couldn't breathe, he had lost count of how many shocks he'd had today!

So it really did hold a secret!

"Then how should I unlock this secret?"

"Ding! The host's current points are not sufficient to cover the answer to this question."

Great, just great, just great!

Just by asking about the secret, you deducted 500,000 points from me!

If unlocking the secret costs millions... won't that take forever???

Song Yun immediately felt disheartened.

Nonetheless, knowing that there indeed was a secret in the domino was good enough, he couldn't grasp the rest anyway.

After all, if he truly could become an immortal, he would have to abandon his wife and child to follow that path, which went against his beliefs.

"Sigh, it's all your fault, all your fault! If you hadn't been curious about this, you could've exchanged for many more things!"

Song Yun sat on the chair and sighed.

"Ding! The host can choose to sacrifice this domino, and you will receive a reward of two million points!"

Forget it, let it be destroyed.

Song Yun was already tired.

Fuck, a system is actually pushing me to make sacrifices now, impossible!

Song Yun would rather give this thing away to avoid disaster later, than to joke about the safety of his family!
