Qi Xiuyuan stared at her intently, neither agreeing nor disagreeing.
Lu Manman sighed, and with a reluctant look, took out a lot of grapes from her spatial storage and placed them on the table.
"Is this the energy you're referring to?"
The moment a large quantity of grapes were pulled out, the entire space was filled with a pleasant aroma, and it truly had a magical power to soothe the mind.
Qi Xiuyuan frowned. "What is this?"
“These are fruits I bought online that can treat mental illnesses,” Lu Manman continued. “I saw them by chance before and couldn’t believe it at first, but then I found out that what everyone was saying was true, so I quickly stocked up on a lot. I originally wanted to use these to impersonate a high-level pharmacist, but I didn’t expect to run into you.”
Fruits that can heal mental energy are unheard of. Qi Xiuyuan didn't quite believe it, but the overflowing fragrance did indeed soothe his mental energy.
Qi Xiuyuan's heart stirred slightly, and he immediately stepped forward, picked one, and handed it to Lu Manman, saying, "You eat it first."
She was really cautious. Without saying a word, Lu Manman took it and ate it in one bite.
Qi Xiuyuan waited for a while, and seeing that Lu Manman was alright, he felt relieved and picked one to eat.
After a brief period of pain, my mental strength was indeed restored somewhat; there really is such a thing!
Qi Xiuyuan's eyes lit up, unable to hide his excitement, "Where did you buy this? Tell me."
"I bought it from a fruit and vegetable store called 'The Best Fruit and Vegetable Store in the Entire Interstellar Space.'" Lu Manman was a little puzzled. Wasn't this trending on social media? How come nobody knew about it?
Qi Xiuyuan immediately opened his computer and searched for the store.
In the last battle, many soldiers suffered mental breakdowns, either rioting or collapsing, which was much more serious than before.
Even after taking mental stabilizers and repair agents, there was little effect; after a brief period of calm, the person would quickly erupt into another violent breakdown.
If such a wonderful thing really exists, then everyone will be saved. They are all soldiers who defend their country, and even if they are to die, they will die on the battlefield.
Moreover, if it could be widely adopted, the expulsion of the Zerg would be just around the corner. Qi Xiuyuan became more and more excited as he thought about it, until he saw the search results.
"This shop has been sealed off." Qi Xiuyuan looked at the woman in front of him, expressing his suspicion. This woman had been lying constantly ever since she woke up.
"Tell me, where did you get this fruit from?"
"What, you doubt me? This is trending on social media, how come none of you know? If you don't believe me, go check the trending topics, you should still be able to find related entries."
Qi Xiuyuan searched online again, but he couldn't find a single related search term, let alone trending topics.
Looking at Qi Xiuyuan's eyes, Lu Manman couldn't help but ask, "Why are you looking at me like that? It's scary. How come you can't find it? That's impossible. I saw this trending topic when I was on the starship. Let me see it."
Qi Xiuyuan immediately displayed the external light screen control panel. Looking at the empty related search results, Lu Manman was dumbfounded. "That shouldn't be the case. Could it be that the website you're using is different from the website I'm using?"
Seeing the man's increasingly suspicious gaze, Lu Manman quickly said, "Don't get agitated, let me think. Every goose leaves a trace; it's impossible for there to be no trace at all."
As Lu Manman spoke, his brain raced, and suddenly, he thought of an ID that was frequently mentioned.
"By the way, go ask the number one handsome guy in the interstellar world. He's a product review streamer. He's the one who discovered this store. He ate these fruits on the spot during his live stream and then told us that his mental strength was cured. You can ask him if you don't believe me. Besides me, many other people have also bought them. I believe those who have bought them know about this store."
This time, seeing that her expression didn't seem to be lying, Qi Xiuyuan immediately used his power to find relevant information about the number one handsome man in the interstellar space and obtained his personal computer.
Lin Musen instinctively wanted to reject the call when he saw the unfamiliar number, but upon closer inspection, he noticed it was marked as belonging to the military. After hesitating for a moment, he answered the call anyway.
Lin Musen: "Hello! Who is this?"
Qi Xiuyuan was using the military's official number at the moment, so he didn't introduce himself. Instead, he pretended to be an ordinary soldier and asked directly, "Comrade Lin Musen, hello! According to the military, you recently did a live broadcast of a fruit review, and the results showed that the fruit could cure mental strength. Is this true?"
The military also found out, and Lin Musen was shocked. Wasn't it supposed to be a complete blockade?
But thinking of that person's instructions, she still said, "Huh? When did this happen? I don't remember. It shouldn't be. If it really happened, I should remember it very clearly. It's probably just rumors."
"Alright, I have something urgent to attend to, so I'll have to go now, bye!"
After Lin Musen finished speaking, he quickly hung up the personal terminal. He thought it should be okay to say it like that, since he hadn't admitted it anyway.
Seeing that the other party was stammering and dared not admit it, Lu Manman was dumbfounded again.
"I'm really not lying to you. There really is a store that sells this kind of fruit, and they really did trend on social media. The most handsome guy in the galaxy did do a live review of this fruit, but why did it disappear? I don't know either, but I really didn't lie to you, you have to believe me."
Qi Xiuyuan frowned slightly. He considered himself quite good at judging people, and this woman didn't seem to be lying. Besides, her claim of being the most handsome man in the interstellar space was also strange...
So there's only one possibility: everything has been deliberately erased. But it's a big deal, and he has to find the shop owner.
However, we'll investigate that later. Right now, the most important thing is that the soldiers can't wait any longer.
"How much of this kind of fruit do you have left? I'll take it all."
Seeing that Qi Xiuyuan was tempted, Lu Manman quickly stated her request, "Okay, I'll give you everything, but you have to let me go!"
"No, I don't know if you're lying to me."
"Then let's talk about the fruit after you've confirmed you're not lying to me," Lu Manman said firmly.
"No, I need it now, I can buy it from you."
"No, no, you said this store is closed. Such good stuff is priceless and unavailable. I won't sell it unless you let me go."
After saying that, Lu Manman took advantage of the moment and snatched the grapes from the table next to her, putting them back into her spatial ring.
Qi Xiuyuan: ...
After a moment of tense silence, Qi Xiuyuan suddenly narrowed his eyes: "You're an unregistered woman who appeared out of nowhere. You have quite a few secrets. It seems we should contact the lab and have them investigate thoroughly."
Qi Xiuyuan noticed that the woman in front of him seemed very afraid of the laboratory.
But Lu Manman could see that he really needed the fruit. Overcoming her fear, Lu Manman said firmly, "If you don't let me go, you can forget about these fruits. I'd rather destroy them than let you have them."
