Chapter047
The rest period after this competition was still seven days. Shi Jiu went to see Grandma, who was being well cared for. She had been moved to the best hospital and had gained several pounds recently. Her face was rosy and she looked very healthy.
Soon it was the day before the competition. When Shi Jiu was packing up, she heard her communicator ringing non-stop. It was a message from an unfamiliar number.
"I heard you transferred your grandma to another hospital? A gold medal hospital?"
"Don't you know how expensive that hospital is? It costs ten thousand star coins a day."
"Now that you have money, will you forget about your mother?"
The person who sent the message was Wen Shijiu's mother.
In Wen Shijiu's memory, she has been living with her grandmother since her parents divorced. Her mother has never given her a penny and has never cared about her.
Wen Shijiu has a younger sister who is two years younger than her. Her mother has always preferred her sister. After divorcing her father, her mother remarried, taking her younger daughter with her.
Wen Shijiu is now a bit of a celebrity in the interstellar world. In addition, she got the news from somewhere and sent her sick grandmother to the best hospital. Her mother started to send her messages again.
Shi Jiu turned off the communicator and did not reply to the message.
Until the evening, news came from the other side again.
"Why don't you reply to the message?"
Shi Jiu finished washing up and was sorting through her photo album. She glanced at the message and replied, "What's up?"
"Girl, what are you busy with? You just replied to the message."
"I didn't expect that now that you're a celebrity, you don't even want to recognize your own mother, right?"
Shi Jiu just glanced at the message, frowned, and did not reply.
I didn't expect that there really is such a weird mother in this world.
Seeing that Shijiu had no desire to apologize and no desire to chat with her, Wen Shijiu's mother quickly sent another message.
"I need some money now. Mom's business is losing money. If you have some money, give it to Mom first and I'll pay you back later."
"The repayment period is coming soon. If you can't pay it back, you'll be fined."
"Oh." Shi Jiu replied after a few seconds: "What does it have to do with me?"
After replying to the message, Shi Jiu casually clicked and directly blocked the woman.
Shi Jiu had just put down the communicator in his hand when he heard footsteps at the door and a gentle knock on the door.
"What are you doing?" The person who came over was her brother.
"No, I'm packing up."
Shi Yan held a cup of hot milk in his hand and handed it to Shi Jiu. This was a habit Shi Yan had long ago. When Shi Jiu was not in good health, Shi Yan would give her a cup of hot milk every night and watch her drink it before going to bed.
Shi Jiu took it with a smile, "Thank you, brother~"
"Why are you so polite all of a sudden?" Shi Yan crossed his arms, leaned against the door, and said with a smile.
He lowered his eyes and watched the girl in front of him take a few sips of a cup of hot milk.
"Your body is much better than before." Shi Yan looked at the healthy Shi Jiu, still a little dazed.
I still remember that every year on his birthday since he was a child, his wish was that his sister would get better and have a healthy body.
"Yeah." Shi Jiu drank half of the milk, licked his upper lip, and said softly, "Thank her very much."
Shijiu is very grateful to be able to have life again.
"Do you want to hear some good news?" Shi Yan suddenly changed the subject.
Shijiu took a sip of milk and answered vaguely: "Yes."
"An expert went to see Ash today." Shi Yan smiled and said, "That guy's vitality has become much stronger."
Shi Jiu smiled and said, "That's good. Zi Yan will come back safely."
"Did he tell you?" There was a hint of gossip in Shi Yan's eyes.
Shijiu didn't answer. She wiped her mouth with a tissue. The glass of milk was quite large, and Shijiu couldn't finish it all, so quite a bit was left over.
She looked up at Shi Yan and said slowly, "I don't want to drink anymore."
Seeing that there was only a little left in the cup, Shi Yan said, "It's almost finished, drink it all."
Shi Jiu: "Brother~"
Shi Yan smiled helplessly, but still took the cup from Shi Jiu's hand, "It's getting late, little princess, go to bed early."
"Please enter the game room, the game will begin in thirty minutes."
After receiving the message from the program team, Shijiu prepared to enter the game cabin.
"Are you ready to start the game?"
Shi Jiu looked up and saw Shi Yan coming over, "Yeah."
"Be more restrained in the game," Shi Yan began to warn earnestly, "Don't be ruthless."
Shijiu: “….”
Shi Yan was talking about an incident that happened a long time ago, not long after the game was released. Shi Jiu once scared other players while playing the game and left them with psychological trauma. Those players were all high school students, and their parents eventually came to make trouble and asked her to give an explanation.
Later, it was Shi Yan who helped her settle the matter with his money.
Shi Jiu didn't say anything, turned his head and said, "Hmph."
Shijiu's tsundere look made Shiyan laugh. Shiyan said, "But if anyone bullies you, just beat them up."
"If anything happens, I'll take care of it for you."
Shijiu had already entered the game cabin and checked all the equipment. When she heard Shiyan's words, she replied, "Okay."
Then she raised her eyes and looked at Shi Yan.
Shi Yan naturally understood the look in his sister's eyes. It was as if her eyes were saying: Don't worry, something will definitely happen.
“.......”
At the same time, game variety shows have become a hot topic.
Since the game started airing, the ratings have been very impressive, and the number of fans has increased. Now the final round of the game is about to begin, and all the audience have already sat in front of their laptops waiting for the live broadcast to begin.
The waiting process was a bit difficult, and the audience all went online to check the rankings of their favorite trainees.
"It's the last match. Come on, Jiu, you'll win!"
"Ahhhh, our Ajiu is now number one! The sweetheart wines are so awesome!! Keep going, Ajiu will definitely debut number one!"
"It's a bit difficult to get first place, there are so many talented players."
"Hahahaha this should be a great match, I'm so looking forward to it!"
The show started, and the game host appeared and began to introduce. This time the seats were arranged according to ranking. When Shi Jiu appeared on the first place throne, he was slightly stunned for a moment.
"It was said that Class F rushed over."
"She is indeed very beautiful. If it were me, I would vote for her too."
"Her vote count is strange. It's because some big shot gave her a lot of money in the end."
"Is it the president of the Chief Gaming Company?"
"No matter how much money the president invests, it won't be a loss. After all, this program is theirs, and the majority of that money will eventually return to him, right?"
The first place is the highest position, and Shijiu also felt that many people were looking at her and examining her.
Anyway, she had won the first place many times before, so this kind of attention was just a small scene for her. Shi Jiu sat there calmly and was not panicked at all.
The host continued to talk a lot of nonsense, and finally Shijiu heard the host say: "Fifty to ten, the game begins, I wish all the trainees good luck."
A white light flashed, and Shijiu entered the game space. The space was white, and she had not yet fully entered the game copy.
It’s the last final, so the production team has to do something special.
A translucent board appeared in front of Shijiu.
【Please select the ability you need. 】
Shi Jiu lowered his eyes to take a look. The abilities on the board were very strange. Normally, they would have some kind of attack and defense abilities, but what appeared on Shi Jiu's board were the abilities of charm, face-changing, and even some kind of weight-lifting ability.
“........”
The show has already started, and there are already quite a few viewers in Shijiu's live broadcast room. When they saw Shijiu's option, the barrage of comments became agitated.
[Bullet screen]: Hahahaha, I laughed. What kind of weird abilities are these?
[Bullet screen]: Weight lifting ability? Practice lifting barbells in front of the enemy?
[Bullet screen]: Hahahahahaha, Ajiu is so miserable!
Shi Jiu was silent for a moment, and finally chose a more normal and useful ability.
"Healing ability." Shi Jiu said.
【What percentage should it be added to? 】
Shijiu: “One hundred percent.”
The other abilities are completely useless to her. Those abilities are just used by the program crew to make people laugh. Shi Jiu had seen through it a long time ago.
【Healing ability has been fully replenished.】
【Do you want to enter the game now? 】
Shijiu: "Enter."
[Welcome players to the game, the Blood City Puppet game instance begins]
Tick, tick.
There was a strange smell in the air, and Shijiu opened his eyes.
It was night time here, and there was a blood-red moon hanging in the sky.
The surroundings were very empty, the air was filled with fog, and the moon in the sky seemed to have some faint illusory light and shadow.
Feeling uncomfortable down there, Shijiu subconsciously reached out to grab something and grabbed a worn-out slipper. Feeling something was wrong, Shijiu immediately stood up, and then she finally realized where she was.
She was lying in the garbage dump before.
My body hurts and the surrounding area stinks.
Could it be that her identity this time is a little beggar picking up trash?
Shi Jiu fell into deep thought.
His clothes were worn, his face was dirty, his hair was tangled from not having been combed for a long time, and he smelled foul.
Shijiu: “…”
The little beggar had it confirmed.
She has encountered various identities in the game, but this is definitely the first time she has been such a real beggar.
[Bullet screen]: Hahahaha, I seriously suspect that the production team is deliberately trying to mess with us!
[Bullet screen]: Hahahaha, Jiu is too difficult.
[Bullet comment]: Although Ajiu has become so dirty, his bone structure is still very beautiful!
[Bullet screen]: Jiu, don’t feel inferior, you are still very beautiful, hahaha!
Shi Jiu couldn't stand the smell of herself. She could clearly feel the wounds on her body, which showed that she had been abused before. There was also a slight smell of blood in the air.
Thinking of his own healing ability, Tokijiu tried to use it.
A faint white light appeared on her body, and the surrounding mist added a hazy feeling to her.
I have to say that the 100% healing ability is really amazing. Shi Jiu found that not only the wounds on his body healed and his body became clean, but even the tattered clothes he had been wearing were mended.
Now she was wearing a gorgeous white tutu dress, her hair had turned into long chestnut curls that reached her waist, and she was wearing white lace gloves on her hands.
[Bullet screen]: Oh my god, why did Ajiu transform?
[Bullet screen]: Ahhhh, I knew the little beggar was pretty!
[Bullet screen]: Just like a princess!
[Bullet comment]: Princess, please come out of the garbage dump quickly. This scene is too awkward!
Shijiu found that the repaired skirt was of very good quality and exquisite workmanship.
Based on his years of experience in playing games, Shijiu felt that this character must have some story.
But Shijiu had already walked down from the garbage dump, and the game system hadn't given any clues to the character's identity. She still had no memory of the character and didn't know who it was.
This is the last copy, and it has indeed increased the difficulty.
