The Most Random System

"Song Luping: My name is Song Luping. By the time you see this message, I've already been arrested."

"Song Luping: Bufan, right now, all I have is regret. I'm locking my door, holding my phone, sending you my final message. But I can't help but feel a bit relieved that you didn't come along. If you got caught twice in two days because of me, I'd be too ashamed to live in this world."

"Song Luping: Practice is the only criterion for testing truth. In hindsight, my theory was wrong: never underestimate cops; rigid empiricism is dangerous."

"Song Luping: They will check my phone later. I can't let this incident affect you again, and I can't expose the map I gave you, so I have to delete you now."

"Song Luping: I know it's impolite to delete you alone. Please forgive me, Bai Bufan, this is the last time."

"Song Luping: The cops are getting angry. If I don't open the door, it won't just be fifteen days. That's all I can say."

"Song Luping: Bai Bufan, I'm glad to have met you. I've been really happy these past few days. We are fated, I believe we'll meet again in fifteen days."

"Song Luping: 'Heart emoji' 'Goodbye'"

Boiling tears streamed from Lin Li's heart.

Tears welled up.

In ten cases of tears, nine are laughters, and one is a burst of laughter.

Lin Li clattered on the keyboard.

"Lin Li: Are you kidding? Mentor, did you take your medicine or not!"

"Lin Li: You selfish guy, only thinking about yourself! I'll never forgive you!"

"Lin Li: Will we meet again? Brother Ping, you have to be happy when we meet again, okay? Brother Ping, you have to be happy, you have to be happy, okay? Be happy and joyful. Your world doesn't have me anymore, it's okay, you have to be happy by yourself. Brother Ping, Brother Ping, Brother Ping, how can I live without you... Brother Ping, take me with you, Brother Ping!"

But no matter what Lin Li sent, all that responded to him was a cold and unfeeling red exclamation mark.

Lin Li clicked on Song Luping's profile picture. His Moments only had a single dash left and a cold little white dot.

Some people leave and never come back.

Lin Li sadly and helplessly slid off the couch, leaning back on the floor.

After fake crying for a while, Lin Li couldn't help but complain while looking at the system interface, "Why hasn't the task been completed? Hasn't my mentor gone to prison yet?"

"Uncle Yang, can't you be a bit quicker?"

...

At this time, the story of Jiangnan who got arrested.

Song Luping followed the crowd in dejection, the hunter who hunted birds all day was finally pecked in the eye by one.

These fifteen days are not going to be easy.

Song Luping had a lot of experience in this regard. Just the thought of having to take various moral and legal lessons for another fifteen days gave him a headache.

Fortunately, due to the nature of his work, it wouldn't cause him to lose his job, but his salary for this month would probably only be a third.

Once out, he'd have to tighten his belt again.

——While others tighten their belts to forcibly suppress hunger, Song Luping did it to seal the demon inside him.

Suddenly, Song Luping saw a familiar face.

——It was the cop who personally caught Bai Bufan that day.

Song Luping suddenly remembered, Bai Bufan told him before that he got released the same day last time because he had some connections at the precinct. At the time, he thought Bai Bufan was some big shot.

Could he, as Bai Bufan's beloved friend and family, use this connection?

If he couldn't get himself released directly, that's fine, even knocking a 10-20% discount off the detention time would be satisfying. Song Luping wasn't picky.

Actions speak louder than words, Song Luping signaled to that cop, "Psspss—Psspss—"

Yangliang heard the sound and walked over, asking with a cold face, "What is it?"

Song Luping leaned forward and lowered his voice, "I know Bai Bufan, his connections are my connections, you know what to do."

Yangliang was stunned for a moment, then smiled.

He was troubled by forgetting to ask Lin Li about the characteristics of his friend so he could give him special care.

Now this guy came up to his face.

"I understand." Yangliang smiled warmly.

Seeing this scene, Song Luping maintained a calm face, but inside was overjoyed!

Settled! Totally settled! The cop in front of him was one of his own! Maybe he'd regain his freedom in no time!

...

[Task Five Completed.]

[You have received the reward: Random Ability*1; System Currency*50.]

The message Lin Li had been waiting for finally appeared before him.

His beloved mentor, Song Luping, finally reached his loyal destination—the Demon Suppression Bureau.

Lin Li clicked on ability. It wasn't talent, so he wasn't worried it would be something like dancing again.

[You have obtained active ability: Enhanced Memory]

[Enhanced Memory: After use, memory capacity becomes five times its normal level, lasts for twenty minutes, accumulates one use every eight hours, with a maximum of three uses stored.]

Another memory-related ability.

Lin Li longed to pull out his textbooks on the spot to experiment with this memory capability.

Too bad he didn't bring textbooks home at all.

That's what a good student looks like.

However, Lin Li believed the effect wouldn't be bad because this ability is extra doubling; the doubling point is at the time of use based on his current memory capacity.

Now that his memory has doubled, the effect is already noticeable. Using this ability, his memory should become ten times what it initially was, probably close to having an eidetic memory if not quite there.

Now Lin Li is more concerned about something else.

His system currency has accumulated to six hundred, and he can finally unlock the first item.

"System, I hope you're not like Pinduoduo."

Lin Li silently prayed in his heart before opening the [Marketplace].

——As a young man with a mind fit to be a lamp post decoration, Lin Li thought the system had more ways to torment him.

For example, finding out after unlocking goods that buying also requires unlocking purchase qualifications, and once bought to the warehouse, unlocking usage qualifications.

But if the system did go that far, Lin Li would be furious.

After finishing his prayers, Lin Li opened the marketplace.

[Random Quality Spirit Stone: 20 system currency (Limit 1 per day) (Free Refresh Available)]

[Unlock Refreshable Item Slot 2, requires a cumulative total of 1000 system currency. (600/1000)]

[Unlock Refreshable Item Slot 3, requires a cumulative total of 1500 system currency. (600/1500)]

[After unlocking one more refreshable item slot, you can view the requirements to unlock refreshable item slot 4.]

Finally, the channel to purchase spirit stones was unlocked.

Lin Li had been waiting for this day for a long time.

Lin Li wasn't sure if 20 was pricy since he had no referential standard.

But as someone who played many games, Lin Li knew the significance of the word "Limited Purchase," especially when the limit is 1. Better buy it first!

[You have purchased Random Quality Spirit Stone*1.]

[Sold Out Today (Free Refresh Available)]

Luckily, the system didn't do anything heinous like unlocking a purchase qualification.

In terms of being beastly, the system was less adept than he was.

Lin Li checked the warehouse; it was quite standardized and even had probability disclosure.

[Low-grade Spirit Stone: 95%; Medium-grade Spirit Stone: 4%; High-grade Spirit Stone: 0.9%; Spiritual Spring: 0.1%.]

"The probability feels too real, but there's no guarantee mechanism; this violates the law, I must report this!" Lin Li muttered to himself upon discovering there was no guarantee mechanism.

Used it.

[Low-grade Spirit Stone*1.]

The expected result occurred, albeit somewhat predictably.

Lin Li checked the refresh mechanism for item slots.

It turned out that refreshing doesn't reset the daily purchase count but directly refreshes the item type.

However, the result after refreshing can be selected to be replaced, so there's no worry about getting a worse outcome and regretting the choice.

Since it is reversible, it doesn't matter.

Refresh.

[You've received refreshed B++ Battle Armor (Lin Li Perfect Model): 1000 system currency, would you like to replace?]
