Chapter 38 I'm Too Blue

This cold, emotionless voice made Jiang Ning lose his mind for a moment.

Why does it sound a bit like the tone of that guy who seems to be called Fu Chichi, who is caught wherever she runs in another world?

It's no wonder Jiang Ning couldn't remember people's names. No one would introduce themselves to a bastard. When Jiang Ning saw the bad guy's name, he took the opportunity when no one was in the house to process the dishes he cooked for him, to avenge the bad guy for seeing his name on the envelope he burned with firewood when he caught the bastard many times.

Although the prank plan seemed to have failed, the man drank up all the soup and even cried because of the delicious food. Jiang Ning felt a little proud of himself.

At that time, she was nervous that someone might come in at any time, so she didn't dare to stay for long. She just glanced at the envelope. In fact, Jiang Ning was not sure what the criminal's name was.

When she thought about the first time she met this man, the badger was eating a watermelon happily. The man looked at her as if he were a giant monster, as if he were a dead object. His eyes, without any emotion, fell on her, and he swung the hoe at the badger. There seemed to be a strong bloody aura on his body, which scared Jiang Ning so much that she ran away madly and didn't dare to appear there for a long time.

That figure popped up in his mind, and when he met a similar one again, even though Jiang Ning knew that they were not in the same world and that person would not follow him, he still felt like someone was grabbing the back of his neck and his neck was cold.

Jiang Ning grabbed the man's arm through the thick darkness and slammed it hard. A crack of bone broke out as he let go. Jiang Ning quickly broke free and turned on his phone, which only had 1% battery left, to shine the light on the man.

The man was so tall that Jiang Ning couldn't see his face clearly, only his outline.

Under the light of the screen, the badge on the man's chest reflected a golden luster. Jiang Ning breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the badge. His voice softened a little, and he spoke before the other party attacked again.

"You are also a comrade here, right? I'm new to the unit. If you don't believe me, send me to the research institute so I can verify it."

Jiang Ning's words were much longer. Fu Yanchi, whose face was hidden in the darkness, listened to this voice that had been engraved in his bones for who knows how long. His body shook, and a hint of hidden emotion flashed in his dark and sharp eyes, but quickly disappeared.

No, I can't scare her anymore...

Perhaps the other party believed her words, Jiang Ning felt that the aura of the man was not so cold anymore, which made Jiang Ning relax a little and made her more certain that the man was not the cold and inhuman criminal who looked like a moving corpse.

"Well, now that the misunderstanding is resolved, can you tell me where the research institute is?"

In the dim light of the screen, Fu Yanchi looked at the beautiful eyes and eyebrows in front of him. They were still the same as before, but the originally fair skin had changed color to a bright blue.

Looking at the fruits that fell on the ground, he bent down to pick them up one by one and apologized in a calm voice.

"Sorry for dropping your fruit."

Jiang Ning glanced at the fruit and saw that it was only slightly dusty and not broken, so he accepted the apology.

Seeing that the man was holding the fruit and did not return it to her, she walked alone in front of her. After walking a few steps, he looked back, as if asking him to catch up.

Jiang Ning wondered if this cool guy holding a piece of fruit, who looked a bit cute and awkward, was leading her. She paused, looked at her completely turned-off phone, and hurried to catch up.

After finally seeing the institute's logo, Jiang Ning let out a sigh of relief.

She still prefers walking at night with a chatterbox. Walking with a cool guy who can't even utter a few words, she feels that the road is so quiet that it's a bit scary.

"Thank you for showing me the way, comrade. Just give me the fruit."

After taking the fruit, Jiang Ning stuffed a few more fruits into the man's pocket as a thank you for leading the way.

Fu Yanchi looked at the fruit, then at Jiang Ning, who hadn't noticed her color change. Although he thought the civet was just as cute, he still gave her a reminder.

"This fruit is a color-changing fruit grown at the research institute. Eating it will randomly change the color of your skin. You should...try to eat less."

After the man said this, he took the two fruits and left.

Jiang Ning's eyelids twitched a few times after hearing this, and she walked quickly towards the research institute holding the fruit. When she came under the light, she saw her own hand holding the fruit, which was so blue that it was dazzling. Jiang Ning's eyes suddenly went dark.

No, what good fruit can change color after eating it?

As Jiang Ning was howling inwardly, the door of the research institute opened and the assistant walked out. He was startled to see a little blue man looking at him dimly.

"A...Vandar?"

After being surprised, the assistant recognized that it was Jiang Ning. With a feeling of not understanding but respect, he started to praise her.

"Miss Jiang, your cosplay really looks like Avatar. I'm sure you're definitely the best-looking one among Avatar!"

Hearing the word "Avatar", Jiang Ning felt even more hopeless.

"Want to have a skin like mine? Here, eat one and your skin will change color successfully." Jiang Ning handed a fruit to the assistant.

I recognized at a glance that it was the assistant who was growing the color-changing fruit in their research institute. I finally understood why Jiang Ning had such a dark look in her eyes. It turned out that she was not cosplaying Avatar, but was forcing herself to change color by eating the color-changing fruit.

He said, why did such a beautiful girl change her skin to blue?

"Hey, this is the color-changing fruit we planted for research. Why did Miss Jiang pick it and eat it? Didn't Comrade Xu warn you?"

"The color of the skin changed by eating the color-changing fruit will last for 24 hours, and you can only wait for it to fade normally."

Every time the assistant spoke, Jiang Ning became a little more depressed and spoke weakly.

"Brother Xu did say that, but when I went to pick the fruit, I didn't see the warning sign and thought it wasn't grown by the research institute."

"There's no warning sign? Maybe those monkeys dropped it." The assistant looked at Jiang Ning sympathetically and said.

"Those monkeys who came here from nowhere before ate the color-changing fruit and their fur turned green. Perhaps because they found it unsightly, they've been causing damage to the fruit planting area every other day. Today, the orchard manager probably didn't have time to put up the warning sign they'd removed."

Jiang Ning thought about the group of monkeys with green fur and smiled. Looking at her own blue skin, it didn't make her so sad anymore.

Jiang Ning was happy, and the assistant took her to Lu Huaizhi's house to rest.

This is the above, and also the result after discussing with Jiang Ning.

Firstly, because Lu Huaizhi has some confidential information, his residence is the most heavily guarded place in District 1. Secondly, Jiang Ning's identity is special, and she needs special protection, but she also needs to be protected from too much pressure. Therefore, it is most appropriate to let Jiang Ning live with her familiar relatives.

Before going to bed, Jiang Ning looked at the little blue man in the mirror, rubbed his face, sighed deeply, and posted an emo message on his Moments.

[I'm too blue!]

Then the accompanying picture is a selfie of Avatar (Jiang Ning version).

As soon as this circle of friends was posted, Lu Yuan, a night owl, sent her condolences.

[Everyone get out of the way when the young lady arrives: Pfft, your skin... hahahaha, cosplaying Avatar so late at night.]

Jiang Ning gave her a knife emoji in return.

Just as I finished replying, two more comments popped up.

[Jiang Qing: Where did you get this color? It fits perfectly. Even the contact lenses are blue. She's a cute avatar.]

[Lu Shiyu: Are you removing dye? Are the materials confirmed to be healthy? If it's uncomfortable to apply, just remove it immediately.]
