Moreover, Xu Minian is still in school, and Xu Milu has taken out a student loan of 30,000 yuan. Let alone asking Liu Hongmei to spend nearly 100,000 yuan on surgery, she might not even agree to close the shop and take a break.
As she thought about it, Xu Milu's eyes reddened. After all, she was just a girl who had just turned twenty-two. It would be a lie to say that she wasn't afraid of suddenly having such a heavy burden on her shoulders.
"Sis? Why are you back?"
Xu Minian rushed out of the elevator in the stairwell, carrying a schoolbag and sweating profusely, while also holding a bag of fried rice cakes in his hand.
It's the kind of fried food sold near the school gate, sprinkled with a lot of chili powder, bright red and looks very appetizing.
Xu Milu turned to look at the ward and whispered to Xu Minian about Liu Hongmei's condition.
Xu Minian, the chubby little boy, was clearly confused: "Didn't Mom just twist her back? Why does she need surgery?"
Xu Milu didn't think there was any benefit in keeping it a secret from her younger brother. She needed Xu Minian's cooperation to persuade her mother to have the surgery, and he was also 16 years old, so it was time for him to take on some of the family responsibilities.
The siblings sat head to head in the corridor, whispering to each other for a long time before sharing the cold fried skewers in the stairwell. Both of them, quite unfortunately, had their eyes redden from the spiciness of the small spicy rice cakes.
—————————————————————
Sun Zhi stayed at the hospital that night, while Xu Milu and Xu Minian, one needing to shower and change clothes and the other having class the next day, obediently went home.
When they got home, neither of them felt like cooking. They took some steamed buns from the refrigerator, heated them up, ate them, and then washed up and went to bed.
Xu Milu was restless and unable to sleep because she was thinking about what happened during the day. She turned over and was poked by something on the bed.
She looked at it in the light of her phone and saw a familiar little block figure, whose head and body had been separated by Xu Milu's pressure.
Just as she was about to throw it away, Xu Milu noticed a flash of light in the little figure's head, like glass.
Xu Milu used her little finger to pick it up, and something that looked like a shard of glass rolled into her palm.
In that instant, she touched it as if possessed, her fingertip pricked and bled, and the next second, a sharp pain struck her!
As if pricked by a needle, Xu Milu suddenly flung out the Lego minifigure, but the glass shard stuck firmly to her index finger, which was extremely strange.
Countless complex information flooded her mind. It seemed like a moment had passed, yet also like an eternity, before Xu Milu, her lips trembling and face pale, finally got out of bed and realized with a start that her pajamas were soaked with sweat.
A mole suddenly appeared on the tip of her index finger, but Xu Milu was certain that she never had any moles on her fingers!
That "shard" wasn't a piece of glass at all; it was a fragment of a transdimensional jump system!
This is not a product of Earth. It was created when a dimensional merchant encountered a spacetime turbulence during a dimensional jump. Everything on his body was torn apart by the enormous impact, leaving only this small fragment that ended up on Earth.
By sheer coincidence, Xu Milu's blood and spiritual power activated the system.
Although it was just a fragment of a dimensional jump system, it still recorded a jump node to another world. Now, it seems that the merchant has been completely wiped out, otherwise Xu Milu wouldn't have accidentally bound herself to this fragment of the interdimensional jump system.
According to the information left by the previous owner, as long as there is enough energy, the interdimensional jump system can be activated to enter a dimensional node.
In layman's terms, the dimensional jump system is like a means of transportation, and the dimensional information recorded inside is like an "anchor point" used for positioning. The person holding the jump device can use it to switch dimensions and complete cross-time and space travel.
Because it is a fragment, it is impossible to guarantee that the user can be stably teleported between this plane and Earth, which means that it is impossible to control how long the user stays in this plane.
In other words, the more energy invested, the longer you can stay in that plane; conversely, if you invest less energy, you will be forcibly teleported back.
Because it was just a fragment, Xu Milu only obtained a node of one plane, but she was still tempted.
The system can forcibly teleport users. Does this mean that as long as she controls the energy input, she can obtain a large amount of resources in that dimension while ensuring her own safety, and thus profit on Earth?
She became more and more agitated as she thought about it, and couldn't fall asleep for a long time while touching her right index finger.
In the incomplete records left by the system, Xu Milu saw that the interdimensional merchant had made money through interdimensional transactions, earning one amount of energy coins after another.
For Xu Milu right now, money is incredibly tempting, not to mention it represents an entire dimension.
Although she wasn't like that businessman, with top-notch physical skills and a bunch of life-saving treasures, Xu Milu was just an ordinary Earthling who hadn't even passed the 800-meter race, and even the dimensional jumper in her hand was broken.
If this unknown dimension is a dangerous place, what will her family do if something happens to her there?
Xu Milu stared wide-eyed in confusion until dawn. From magical planes to war planes, from ancient planes to fantasy cultivation planes, she speculated for a long time but couldn't find a single clue in the remaining records to determine the situation of this plane.
...
...
When dawn broke, the sound of Xu Minian getting up and washing up woke up Xu Milu, who was in a half-asleep state.
"Sis, I'm off to school. There's porridge in the pot, can you heat it up when you get up?"
After giving her instructions, Xu Minian left, her dark circles under her eyes particularly noticeable.
I imagine he didn't sleep well last night either.
On the table was a plate of tomatoes with sugar and a small dish of pickled cabbage; it was the most ordinary meal.
Xu Milu got up, and finally finished the whole pot of porridge with a plate of sugar-coated tomatoes and pickled vegetables before angrily slamming down her chopsticks.
"The bold get rich, the timid starve. No cowardice! Let's do it!"
