QT: Against My Will (Volume 1)

3.10 - Alien Emojis - Downfall of Humanity

(Yi Zen): I'll make the arrangements, but you will have to meet up with me.

Bing Shi didn't hesitate to respond but with one condition.

(Bing Shi): Sure, but you have to gain my trust first.

(Yi Zen): I understand. Trust goes both ways. What would it take for you to trust me?

'Won't a pop-up message appear when I gain his trust?' Bing Shi didn't miss a beat as she responded.

(Bing Shi): Not much. Just trust me like a wealthy investor trusts a solid stock, and I will make sure your investment in me will only increase in value.

(Yi Zen): Fine. But you have to follow our rules and guidelines. We can't have any rogue members compromising our mission. How can I trust someone who hides her identity behind a mask?

Yi Zen couldn't discern if Bing Shi was the type to be easily won over or if she required more effort to gain her trust.

(Bing Shi): It's for my safety. Also, everyone hides behind a mask. Are you saying you don't have one? You 👽. I don't trust 👽👽.

Yi Zen dismissed the meeting and walked to his office. He couldn't help but feel a tinge of annoyance toward Bing Shi. He understood the need for caution and anonymity, but this whole charade seemed like a circus act to him. After all, the main objective was to gather information on this dangerous terrorist.

(Yi Zen): Let's start fresh. Information is key in any operation, and I need to know more about you before we proceed. Can you provide me with some background on yourself?

(Bing Shi): Well, where should I begin? I value my privacy above all else. What about you? Are you an alien? 👽Because the way you ate that lemon was like nothing I've ever seen before. It was otherworldly.🍋👽

Yi Zen furrowed his brow in annoyance. Who did Bing Shi think she was to make a joke at his expense? He was a highly respected leader, not some clown to be mocked.

He quickly pushed aside his irritation, reminding himself that building trust required patience and understanding.

(Yi Zen): I'm not an alien, but if I were, I'd have better things to do than asking people to eat lemons.

Yi Zen waited for Bing Shi's response, but none came. He sighed and wondered if he had said the wrong thing. Perhaps he should have tried to be more charming or humorous. But as a military man, he wasn't exactly known for his wit or charm.

Yi Zen engaged in daily conversations with what he considered a foolish creature. Had it not displayed any particular abilities, he would have already assigned it a spot in a mental institution. However, as someone in need of gaining its trust, he played along with its nonsensical ramblings.

(Yi Zen): How can someone like you have a boyfriend?

Bing Shi): How can someone like you not have a girlfriend? 👽 👽

(Yi Zen): I asked first.

(Bing Shi): I was lucky to find one. You? 👽

(Yi Zen): Not interested in women.

(Bing Shi): What about men? 👽

(Yi Zen): Neither.

(Bing Shi): I knew it. You are an 👽. Like me.
