On the bridge of the starship, Gui Naifen performed juggling skills with great effort, which drew frequent cheers from the family members in the live broadcast room. Her brothers and sisters, whose faces had long since blurred, also applauded her, as if they were interested.
Uncle [Second brother, come and persuade the eldest brother! There is no need to continue to live a wandering life, come to Luofu and I will support you! Hey, look, I have 100,000 followers on my account! 100,000! Almost as many as the people in Xianzhou Village! Enough for our family to have food and drink! ]
This girl Ling...
Although it is human nature to pursue fame, wealth and power, and Ling had guessed some of it, the sadness hidden in Gui Naifen's heart is beyond the understanding of ordinary people.
After his old friend passed away, he traveled far away from home to seek shelter in several corners. He barely survived his troubled childhood with optimism. He got to know the neighbors in Luofu and his life got a little better after he met Sister You. Recently, he finally found a profitable direction, but was taken advantage of by Sui Yang.
Each member of her family has a story to tell and they are all very optimistic. They give people a sense of being in another world, which makes Ling like her even more.
If she had not been accustomed to the sufferings of the world, she would probably have looked at the dream that Sui Yang created for Xiao Guizi a little longer - but the most urgent thing was not to pity her, but to drive out Sui Yang who kept playing slides in her head.
"It's true that beautiful dreams are worth cherishing, but the reality of this world is that it is full of bitterness and sweetness. Guinevere, it's time to wake up."
She fell asleep today and woke up yesterday. Ling's ability is not as simple as controlling dreams, but she is restricted a lot after coming to this world. She can no longer be a carefree person who wanders outside of time and space. If she regards the world as an illusion, the harm will be immeasurable. Fortunately, she has the heart of an immortal. She is a good person but does not want to see others perish.
"...Hey, this...sister? Have we met before somewhere?"
Seeing Ling Piao coming in front of her, Xiao Guizi, who was performing a high-altitude split, was puzzled beyond words.
"retreat!"
Ling put her hands together, forming a hollow triangle with Sui Yang's palm that was controlling her.
With a burst of vigorous shouts, the false starry sky faded away, and Guinevere's mind returned to her loyal body - at the cost of this, the false feeling of lightness also left her, but apart from a little dizziness and a burning sensation in her mouth, the familiar, heavy feeling on her back was quite warm.
"Hey, Little Leo, why are you riding on me? And there are several people on me..."
Gui Naifen, with an innocent look on her face, burped, and Ling helped her sober up, but the limp feeling was still there, which was the side effect of Sui Yang's misbehavior with her body.
"Xiao Guizi has recovered. Your elder sister is very clever!"
"No, it was the girl who held on to her last bit of defense. Her dream was so bright that even Sui Yang's malice could not stain it."
Ling retracted her fingers. At her fingertips, a ball of spiritual fire was burning quietly:
"I thought Sui Yang was something tricky. Besides being hard to track down, it's not that strange."
She handed Sui Yang, who was arrested on the spot, to Xue Yi, but Xue Yi shook her head, pointed at Huo Huo, who was frightened, and looked at Ling more respectfully.
"Please let Judge Huo Huo collect the punishment. My sister and I need to appease the onlookers - lift the blockade."
"Yes, Your Honor."
"It's okay to let the doctor and the others in now, right?" Ling jokingly nodded the unconscious Spark Spirit.
"Please understand. Our mission is to secure the perimeter - this case is closed."
Xue Yi twisted her earphones and said, "...There are other Sui Yang that have flowed into the people. In order to ensure that the doctor's trip will not be troubled, and for Luofu Shusheng not to be frightened, Xue Yi dares to ask, what magic did the Immortal just perform?"
"You guys can't learn dream exploration, so I can share some of the wine with you. As for the brewing skills, hey, please allow me to exchange them for some money?"
It was not known whether Ling Chui was confused by Xue Yi's words "Shang Xian" or whether she had already made plans -
"The Xundi issue has been resolved, and the Ten Kings Division should satisfy you."
Xue Yi had seen Ling and Kong flirting with each other for a while, and thought that Kong was doing them another favor by allowing them to find a treasure that could not be bought with money. Limited by their sensitive emotions, they all felt grateful to Kong.
If this medicine... this immortal wine's brewing method is mastered by the Ten Kings, and Huo Huo uses poison to fight poison, leaving Da Sui Yang aside, wouldn't it be easy to catch a few petty thieves?
Seeing that Xue Yi and Ling were chatting quite speculatively, Jackdaw finally breathed a sigh of relief - she had exceeded her mission today, and now she only needed to take good care of Gui Naifen and tell her not to go out and spread rumors or talk about ghosts and gods, and then she could continue with her previous invitation to the doctor...
Although considering Gui Naifen's condition, her signature play will definitely not be able to be seen today, but it is still possible to invite other experts under Sister You to perform.
And...if Jackdaw had more selfish motives towards the Doctor before, now the key is how to please all the train members - maybe they will do one or two things without your instructions.
"Wow, little Guizi, luckily you're alive! You don't know how cold my heart was when you hit me with the stick just now!"
"Hey, have I ever done such a stupid thing? Shang Shang, don't cry--"
My snot has all over my clothes! My pantyhose has been scratched! My flesh has all spilled out. I hope it won’t be banned from the platform because it looks too astringent! !
Gui Naifen, who was confused but vaguely knew that she had done something wrong, went to comfort Su Chang, but she was also worried about the many anti-intellectual words she had said when the show just started...
Fortunately, Shang Shang held her back at the critical moment, and didn’t do anything too exciting or borderline. Otherwise, she would have been thrown from the outdoor live broadcast area to the dance area.
In a daze, she seemed to be talking about some supernatural things - the ghost lights that had not yet completely dissipated at the scene also indirectly proved that her memory was correct.
"Am I... possessed by a ghost?"
"Yes, you scared me to death. If the judges hadn't shown mercy--"
"Don't rush into reminiscing, Soldier Li. She hasn't fully recovered yet."
The Jackdaw, whose face had regained its human form, came over and flicked three green onion fingers at Xiao Guizi:
"Confirm her judgment. Look at my hand. What is this?"
Just then, the remaining energy fire cluster of Uncle Tail floated past the chin of the Jackdaw, illuminating her eyes and face green.
“…Ghost!!!”
……
Sister You is an old hand, and Xiao Guizi's experience still shocks her. But after hearing Jackdaw's explanation, she quickly came up with a plan to clean up the mess for her main pillar and the judge.
She shouted and brought out all the guys in the group, setting up a stall at the crime scene where ghost lights were flickering, and found an explanation for the strange phenomenon caused by the conflict that would convince the onlookers. Otherwise, relying solely on Jackdaw, who was in a bad mood, to disperse the crowd would only make things worse.
And was sprayed in the face by Xiao Guizi's most hoarse shout in her life - Jackdaw was a very gloomy girl on ordinary days, and her condition became worse when watching the acrobatics, and her gloominess escalated a bit, turning into gloomy... the kind that sat on the ground and was quite resentful.
...If left alone, fresh mushrooms will grow out of her body in a few hours.
Maybe it was because the little sister she rescued mistook her for a ghost, which must have been a big shock to her.
Kong felt a little sympathetic towards her, but he couldn't just stand up and comfort her, so he could only open a private channel for her and chat with her quietly.
After all, watching a show is just watching a show. He dares to flirt with new girls when he has so many old lovers around him. Every time he hears something he shouldn't hear, it will turn into blood marks on his back from jade teeth or slender hands tearing at him in the evening.
In a sense, this is a horror movie.
[Don’t take it to heart. Every time you appear, the lighting is not very pleasing. Let March take some beautiful photos of you and hang them up. I guarantee that people will praise you——]
[Don't comfort me, Doctor. I know I have dark circles under my eyes and bags under my eyes that can't be removed. My skin is as pale as a corpse. What I care about is not my appearance crisis, but the fact that the job of "asking" by this judge is getting harder and harder.]
Maybe it was because Kong had gained enough one-sided trust in her, her mumbling was even more fragmented than when she spoke with her mouth, almost turning into complaining.
[My sister doesn't often deal with the ways of the world, and Huo Huo is timid and afraid of people, so I have to deal with those curious people. But every time I have to chase them to ask for clues or comfort them... But most of the time it will make them have bad associations - it will be even more troublesome if I go on a mission at night. No matter how I put on makeup and dress up, as long as it's past nine o'clock, the civilians who see me will run away for their lives...]
Her shoulders slumped visibly.
[…Although I have already made up my mind to treat myself as a dead person, the difficulty of returning to life and the strange looks from the secular world are still too painful for me.]
[Look at it from a positive perspective. At least there are still people who appreciate your style of doing things... ｓOUSＵO: Just hiss·⑵⑷∝參『↓３粦⌒“wu]
[But that also shows that I don’t have the appeal of an ordinary woman at all. The Miss Tingyun next to you is always kind to everyone she meets - I don’t ask myself to be as popular as her, as long as the people I ask don’t run away immediately, that’s enough...]
406. I won't watch you for nothing. I'll call you.
After chatting for a while, Kong felt that Jackdaw might not be as frustrated as she appeared. She had long been accustomed to being criticized. Walking at the junction of the "Yin and Yang worlds", there was nothing else around her except the judge and the golden man who were traveling with her.
And all her current complaints, including her squatting mushroom posture and her lost state that is inconsistent with her sister's understanding of her, are all in the hope that the designated, only person who can understand her will comfort her. In a word, she is "acting coquettishly" to the doctor.
...It was probably hard to imagine that a judge would actually act like a spoiled child. This way of acting like a spoiled child was a little awkward - but the "girly" part of Jackdaw had not yet been diluted by the Meng Po soup, and her attachment to the snow clothes was obvious to almost everyone else. It seemed that the judges were quite humane outside of work, which also allowed Kong to see through her spoiled intentions.
[Do something that can help you regain your "position" in the secular world, whether it's inviting people to dinner or taking a photo, so that you can get more popularity... Temperament has a great influence on people. Your appearance is outstanding enough, but what may scare those people is that you have been staying in the Karma Palace for a long time, and you have been infected with the evil spirit. ]
The feeling of loss in the psychic fluctuations of Jackdaw slowly subsided, and he became cautious: [Every time my sister captures a criminal, she has a chance to return to life in half a day... We can only go out together when we have enough vacation time... Apart from her, I can't think of anyone else to go out with...]
...Who says that nerd girls don't know anything? It's obvious that nerd girls know everything. Look at how smooth and smooth her little combo is.
If there were fewer people around, Sora would probably just go along with what she said out of pity and identification for Jackdaw.
But his schedule was packed, so he could only take her along for some time alone... Even though he felt a little itchy, he had to put it aside for now.
[When your sister goes back to recharge in the next few days, you can come and play with us. Don't put too much pressure on yourself. If the Ten Kings hold you accountable, you can just say that we are difficult to serve.]
[I appreciate the doctor's kindness, but there are endless files to read and endless cases to review. I'm afraid the two or three days of leisure will be in exchange for the raging sun.]
Jackdaw sighed inwardly, as Sora had resolved her not-so-clever move - she could only go for a straight shot.
[Jackdaw doesn't want to pass on the pressure of work to you... If we're just talking about personal matters...Does the doctor really think I'm good-looking? You're not trying to comfort me?]
Kong's eyes lit up, but his words were a little hesitant: […You are very beautiful, but even I cannot indulge my possessive desire like stamp collecting.]
After Jackdaw's body stiffened, he slowly said: [...I know you came to me on your own initiative, without the Ten Kings' instruction. But you have also seen the situation around me. I can't manage it and can't take good care of you, which will only make you feel wronged.]
Being given the same straightforward nice guy card, Jackdaw was not as numb as he thought.
This is what it feels like to be rejected by someone you admire.
It's a topic that can be used in a novel...but why does my nose feel so sore?
"Sister Jackdaw㈨□×０＊＄㈣〗㈧〓㈣㈡"㈨',０∶【㈤Transfer group: Sister, don't look so sad, Xiao Guizi is here to apologize to you——"
While the actors on the stall were performing their moves brilliantly, the shadow cast by the Jackdaw grew even heavier.
But a hint of blush brushed across her head, and a box of pastries was handed to her as she sat on the floor, slightly brightening her cheeks.
"…Your account has been unblocked. You don't need to please me. It is the judge's duty to make fair judgments."
"No, I'm not trying to please you. I was saved by you, sister, so I should at least show some appreciation..."
"Then you should thank Li Sushang and Ms. Ling even more——"
"Hey hey..." Even someone as enthusiastic as Gui Naifen didn't know where to start with Jackdaw. She glanced back at Su Chang quietly, but saw her best friend nodding and bowing, scratching her scalp, and not paying any attention to this side.
"Don't worry about me. I'm thinking about how to write the case report..."
After all, Jackdaw had just experienced the blow of a relationship that ended before it even began, and it was not directed at Gui Naifen, but Xiao Guizi didn't think so.
Of course, she also wanted to thank the others - but only the one in front of her was hurt by her while saving her!
Seeing the Jackdaw erecting a thick wall of heart and hearing her increasingly depressed speech from afar, the "keen-sighted" Ling moved his tail, glanced at Kong's back, spread his legs, and poked his butt with his toes.
[Did you make Jackdaw depressed? ]
[? How did you guess this? ? ] Kong was almost frightened to death by her words. ０∑: ５∠;
[Do you need to guess? She glances at you every three seconds, and turns her head down every five seconds, looking very shy, but you just looked stupid like "I'm such a Sigma man" and leaned back, and she immediately shut herself up. What, was she rejected? ]
Should we say that he is worthy of being the Ling - he can even see the clues from this.
Sora had no choice but to grab her rebellious foot and press her big toe through her thick sneakers.
[Then why do you still expect me to accept her? 】
Kong almost counted on his fingers to show her how much private time he had now that it was divided equally.
