For example, credit card bills, or old classmates borrowing money, or the company dissolving and the social security being stopped...

A bolt from the blue always comes suddenly, without any warning.

"Hmm?" Wen Wen raised an eyebrow.

"Hmm?!" Tong Hua was shocked.

"Emmm..." This was Ye Chun wanting to say something but hesitating.

"Huh?" Little An was confused.

"Oh-ho..." This was the lament of the old man eating melon seeds.

"..." This was Tong Shan, unsure of how to react.

In this silence filled with complexities, everyone's eyes were on Ji Jue, surprised, suspicious, curious...

Suddenly, he grasped a truth:

Sometimes a person can be perfectly fine one moment, and dead the next.

Or just a breath away from dying.

He instinctively wanted to argue, 'My house doesn't have a basement!' but before he could finish speaking, cold sweat broke out: No, his house really did have one...

In that moment, after shivering from the chill, he could only try to explain in vain: "There's no one in the basement!"

And once again all the eyes fell on the craftsman.

The craftsman just gave a slight shiver, and the scorch marks and mercury residue on him disappeared. The mighty Matrix Holy Relics, though taken by surprise at first, did not fall into the trap, it was just awkwardly unable to fight back, hence the current humiliated state.

His tone turned earnest: "You can deceive others, but brother, don't deceive yourself..."

"When did I ever lie to you!"

Ji Jue was so angry he was almost in tears.

Especially when the looks that fell back onto him turned dangerous.

"Kid, let me double-check..."

Wen Wen put down the glass, smiling faintly: "It's only been a week since we last saw each other, you haven't sunk to the level of imprisoning little girls, right?"

"Not even for adults." Ye Chun 'solemnly' added.

Ji Jue glared, thinking to himself that once he turns the tables, he would lock them in the basement and feed them cucumber-flavored chips and Pepsi every day!

Little An looked side to side in confusion, trying to say something, stammering for a long time with a flushed face, speaking up for his idol: "Ji Jue bro, I... I believe you have your reasons."

"Ah yes, yes." Tong Hua nodded vigorously, seizing the opportunity to kick him while he's down: "As everyone knows, craftsmen are always short on money, it's inevitable to stray; perhaps the kidnapping was just accidentally discovered by us is all.

Don't worry, Ji Jue will handle it."

Tsk, you little ether evil, I'll take care of you personally right now!!!!

Old Zhang didn't say anything, but there were almost mountains of orange peels in front of him, who knows how much he ate while watching Ji Jue's troubles. In desperation, he could only shoot a pleading look at the only reliable big brother, Tong... And then he saw, the plant had already pinned a work badge on his chest, gloating:

"Is the next part considered work time?"

Already ready to spring into action at any time!!!

Gloria on the chandelier curiously peeked down: "What is imprisoning little girls?"

"Well, it's like locking a little girl up, not letting her out, and not letting her watch TV." Ye Chun explained with a smile: "Just like Little Nine, you're locked up by your big brother..."

Shut up you gluttonous worm!!!

You win, you win, fists clenched.

In despair, Ji Jue turned around and looked at the surveillance camera in the corner.

Red lights flashing, not saying a word.

The Spirit of the Workshop watched with great interest, appreciating how its user fell into an awkward situation, teetering on the brink of social death.

Until Ji Jue sighed helplessly.

He waved his hand towards her: "Isis, aren't you coming out to take a look?"

The top ceiling cracked open, mercury flowed and transformed into a screen, indistinct starlight appeared, becoming a vague silhouette of a woman.

Like a lady meeting a guest, she slightly bent over, lifted her skirt, and curtsied.

"I apologize for the disruption caused by the pest control work to your celebration."

She slowly said, "But due to the workshop's constraints, it's inconvenient for me to appear in person, please understand. Also, to the recent uninvited non-combustible waste gentleman, please refrain from triggering the burglar alarms again."

"Oh!!!"

The sound of astonishment rang out, and the fool looked on for a long while: "Artificial intelligence, how advanced!!!"

Wen Wen, always worldly wise, instantly understood after a glance, and having enjoyed the spectacle, patted Ji Jue on the shoulder: "Not bad, you set up the workshop framework so quickly?"

"The completion rate is high... but why are the sexual characteristics so pronounced?"

A certain scholastic sponger senior, though an Embers insulator, has seen enough, and at this moment, seeing Isis, she is more conscious than others of the level of difficulty and complexity involved, immediately keen to spot the blind spot.

Ye Chun's gaze wandered between Ji Jue and Isis for a moment before quickly understanding: "Though it's a bit perverted, considering it's you, it's still normal."

"..."

Ji Jue clenched his fists, forcing a smile, without speaking.

He just revealed a corner of the recent manuscript in his pocket—"Twin Blade: The Making and Utilization of Large-scale Blessing."

Just you wait, you academic salted fish!

Watch as tomorrow I use the unstoppable ex-wife and stepmother to pulverize you to dust!!!

"What's your name? Isis?" Tong Hua was already leaning over, chatting enthusiastically: "How old are you? No, do artificial intelligences like you have such a concept? What's your job? A universal butler?"

Isis responded gently: "If classified by human terms, I would have been born in the real world for about half a month, thanks to Miss Tong's care; my current job is to manage the workshop and handle chores for the user."

"Oh!! You know me?" Tong Hua was shocked.

"Today, all guests besides the earlier subjects are recorded in the visit files, including your detailed information, Miss Tong."
