Chapter 0002: The Emergence of the Golden Finger

The black sphere flickered and vanished, and a line of text appeared before Chen Haoran: [The Universal Assistance System is at the service of the host]

I apologize, once bound, it cannot be severed; the host will be the host of this system for a lifetime.

If we are to speak of a "golden finger," it is the information that one retains in their mind about the next thirty years while being a bystander, including those major events and personnel changes, that truly constitutes the golden finger

After pondering for a while and confirming that this system was indeed dependent on him and could not be eliminated, Chen Haoran could only resign himself to fate and sighed as he asked: "This all-powerful assistant system, in what ways is it all-powerful? What can it assist with?"

Damn! Can a mere missing piece of information be used to conceal the truth?! Can you shift the blame? I certainly do not need your assistance system!" Chen Haoran was quite displeased, thinking to himself, "Damn it, I don't want such a nonsensical golden finger.

Sixty seconds later, the electric shock ended, and the red text within sight disappeared

At this moment, Nie Yuxuan also noticed something unusual about her beloved dog, and in her urgent concern, she chose not to speak about it

Due to the lack of information, the system can currently only provide the host with three main services: comprehensive reminder services, marketplace item trading services, and task publishing services

Indeed, whenever Chen Haoran thought of the task that had been released earlier, he couldn't help but shiver. If he had recklessly completed the task, he would now be facing a tragic outcome. However, failing to complete the task would result in severe consequences, so he harbored a deep resentment towards this task release service

The originally struggling husky, which was about to rush back to tackle the little girl, shuddered at the words, let out a mournful howl, and obediently followed Nie Yuxuan with its head down and tail tucked.

In such circumstances, what need is there for any golden fingers or systems! With this system that issues inexplicable tasks, one is left with an additional layer of unpredictability that cannot be controlled

A person and a dog, separated by a great distance, both lay on the ground, drenched in sweat, with expressions of utter despair, barely clinging to life

Chen Haoran awkwardly smiled and waved his hand, then quickly lowered his head and hurriedly left in a somewhat flustered manner. However, he was cursing wildly in his heart: "What the hell is this? How could such a task suddenly pop up? Is this trying to get me beaten half to death and thrown in jail? Come out! Hurry up and show yourself! I have been reborn, so why is there this inexplicable thing following me? Is this trying to get me beaten half to death and thrown in jail? Come out! Hurry up and show yourself! I have been reborn, so why is there this inexplicable thing?"

The lack of data prevents an explanation of the system's origin and the reasons for selecting the host

Chen Haoran's phone fell onto the grass, and his whole body began to tremble as if he were having a seizure, his teeth chattering, and he started to curse in a stammering voice: "I... I can't believe it... The punishment... actually... is... an electric shock... Damn it... so... so numb... so tingly... I can't... I need to... I might... pee... it feels like I'm about to... get shocked out of my mind..."

The little girl naturally joyfully took the handkerchief, tugged at the balloon, and bounced back into the arms of the young couple behind her, enjoying her parents' praise while turning back and laughing as she waved her small hand at Chen Haoran

Chen Haoran struggled to get up and thanked the concerned passersby who had gathered around him, saying, "Thank you, there's no need to call the police or an ambulance, I'm fine now." While hurriedly picking up his phone, he stumbled and rushed out of the crowd

Nie Yuxuan could no longer care about whether her beloved dog was in pain. She forcefully dragged the exuberant and eager Sweet Vine away, who wanted to pounce on the little girl, and in a fit of uncontrolled emotion, she struck with the dog leash, saying: "Sweet Vine! Why are you being so disobedient? How dare you scare the little sister? Do you want me to take you to eat dog meat stew?"

On the other side, the husky had its tongue hanging out long, then it broke free from the leash uncontrollably, bouncing around like a flea, and began to howl wildly: "Awooo... Wuu... Mom... Awooo meow... Do you love me... Two hundred and fifty... Meow... Woof..."

But the most terrifying part is not here; as long as one is not tortured to death on the spot, there is still a long wait of tears behind iron bars ahead.

On the other hand, Nie Yuxuan was pulling tightly on the husky's collar, her face filled with anxiety as she repeatedly apologized: "Little sister, don't be afraid, this is a husky, a very silly husky, it won't bite you, it just wants to play with you, don't cry, don't cry, Sweet Vinegar! Hurry up and go! Otherwise, you won't have dinner tonight!"

Chen Haoran and the husky, who were quickly escaping from the awkward venue, both suddenly stiffened in unison. Then, at a considerable distance from each other, the person and the dog began to tremble all over, with tears and mucus flowing uncontrollably.

Chen Haoran's gaze shifted to the adorable little girl in front of him, who was about four or five years old, holding a handkerchief and timidly looking at him. He then glanced at the passersby not far away, especially the young couple whose faces were beaming with smiles and expressions of encouragement.

The sudden change in Er Ha left Nie Yuxuan, who was sternly reprimanding it with righteous indignation, utterly exasperated, as she chased after it with her violin, shouting: "Sweet and sour! You have gone too far! I am in the midst of scolding you, and you dare to disobey and run away?! Are you challenging my authority?! Come back here!"

He ran out of the park, found a secluded corner to sit down, and Chen Haoran gritted his teeth and growled: "Come out! Get out here! Damn it, you ghostly thing, hurry up and show yourself! I know you exist! You can't hide! Hurry up!"

Task acceptance countdown 60 seconds

Damn it! You are really sticking to me!" Chen Haoran rubbed his temples in frustration, damn it, with this inexplicable system popping up, I can't even say for sure that I can completely take control of my future!

With Chen Haoran's roar, within his line of sight, a dark, indistinct object appeared, swaying and dodging. As soon as he saw this object, Chen Haoran immediately reached out to grab it, but grasped at nothing, clearly a phenomenon that existed only on the periphery of his vision

Chen Haoran can guarantee that if he truly takes on this inexplicably presented task and goes to complete it, it goes without saying that the young couple will definitely charge at him like enraged lions to kill him! Moreover, the onlookers nearby will surely rush over in righteous indignation to punch and kick him.

But seeing the little girl by the roadside with tears welling in her eyes, she was so frightened that she was about to cry out

... ... Data is missing, unable to answer the host's question ... ...

Task not completed, 60 seconds penalty

Chen Haoran could not be bothered to exert any effort and directly said coldly: "Confess honestly, what are you?"

One only needs to possess memories of the next thirty years to thrive in this world that is about to undergo significant changes, and to also bring along one's family and loved ones to prosper together

"Universal Assistant System? How did you come to be? How did you enter my mind?" Chen Haoran asked with a frown

Damn! Another instance of missing data! You defective product!" Upon hearing this, Chen Haoran was infuriated.

Task completion reward: 1 point

Chen Haoran and Er Ha stared blankly at the screen in front of them

Thus, Chen Haoran shivered slightly, casually responded a few words to the phone, and after ending the call, forced a stiff smile. He squatted down, reached out to take the little girl's handkerchief, wiped his face briefly, and then handed it back, revealing his white teeth, and softly said thank you

At that moment, the 60-second countdown displayed on the visual membrane finally reached 0, and then the words "Punishment 60-second countdown begins" appeared in bright red.

Task: Tackle the current girl, then hold down her limbs and vigorously lick her little face for 60 seconds

Chen Haoran did not pay attention to anything else, but as soon as he heard about the task release service, he immediately became furious: "What the hell! Task release service?! This damn system only knows how to assign me tasks that, once attempted, will either lead to being brutally killed or, if I survive, end up in prison. Do you have any logic at all?! Are you trying to harm your host, which is me, by releasing such tasks?!"
