Chapter 58 Night



During this time, the old orc called to schedule a doctor to come to his home, but fearing that it would disturb Jiang Zheyu, he did not let the doctor in and sent him away instead.

"Alright." Jiang Zheyu withdrew her hand from the man's, her small, white hand falling into her black robe, which completely concealed her.

The old orc kept a close watch, fearing something might happen, but he gradually relaxed when he saw his son's expression soften.

However, he suddenly noticed the beast transformation value detection ring on Lyca's wrist and discovered that her beast transformation value, which was originally 87, had become zero.

His pupils dilated violently as he looked at the man in black robes in disbelief, but all he could see through the wide hood was a grotesque white mask with a smiling face.

"Once the treatment is confirmed to be correct, remember to transfer the payment."

Jiang Zheyu's voice was still a mechanical, gender-neutral voice processed by the quantum computer.

After saying that, she turned and left.

"Aren't you afraid we'll renege on our debt?" If the old orc had any doubts about the black-robed man's treatment before, he had no doubts at all when he saw the beast transformation value reset to zero.

Jiang Zheyu paused slightly as she walked out. She hadn't intended to take their money in the first place, which was why she had them ask her for it through her public identity. This way, her money would eventually come back to her, and the old orc and the others wouldn't suffer any loss.

But of course she couldn't say that.

“If you dare to renege on your debt,” Jiang Zheyu’s voice, altered by his computer to be neither clearly male nor female, slowly echoed in the small room, “then I will take back what I treated.”

She said that just to fit her persona as a person in black robes.

After saying this, Jiang Zheyu left the room.

After the old orc saw the man in black robes leave, he immediately went to check on Lyca's condition.

The blood on the young man's handsome, dejected face had dried, and he lay quietly on the bed with his eyes closed.

In the past, his brows and eyes were always furrowed, and he was particularly restless when he slept, as if he was always trapped in nightmares.

But now he is sleeping peacefully, his face relaxed, as if no longer troubled by illness.

The old orc knew from Lyca's quantum computer that his heartbeat and breathing were normal, and that he had not passed away in a deep sleep.

His cloudy tears could no longer be held back and fell.

The old orc wiped away his tears, wanting to thank the man in black, but the man had already gone far away and was difficult to find, so he had to give up the idea.

He thought of the two million star coins the man in black wanted, so he opened his personal terminal and saw the contact information of the females inside. His gaze turned to disgust. If it weren't for these vicious females, his son wouldn't have become like this, nor would he suffer the pain of mental damage every day.

Although the old orc disliked Jiang Zheyu, he still sent her a message: "Honorable female, my son needs two million star coins for treatment. Please transfer it to me."

Jiang Zheyu left the outer city safely and changed out of his black robe after entering the inner city of the capital.

She now finds the system to be incredibly useful. For example, she can store her discarded robes in the system's inventory, which is practically the same as having an extra space.

"System, you're so useful, why didn't you tell me?" Jiang Zheyu said quietly. Every time, she had to ask the system if it had this function before the system would tell her.

They have absolutely no self-awareness or systematic understanding.

"The system is very useful; you'll need to explore it yourself, host," the system replied.

Jiang Zheyu: ...

In general, the system may or may not have what Jiang Zheyu wants, but Jiang Zheyu will have to ask to find out.

She silently noted it down. After changing out of her black robe in the restroom, she checked her personal terminal and saw that it was already 10:20 p.m.

Many more messages appeared on the computer.

Su Yan has already made several calls via his personal terminal and sent many messages.

Su Yan: Yu Yu, where did you go?

Su Yan: Yu Yu, reply to me, I'm worried about you.

Jiang Zheyu quickly replied, "Ayan, I'm out looking for a job. Don't worry, I'm fine. I'll go back now."

A holographic projection from a quantum computer quickly came over.

Jiang Zheyu is currently in the restroom, so it's inconvenient for her to answer the call. She wants to go out and get it.

As she walked out of the restroom, she didn't answer the holographic phone call. Su Yan, on the other hand, was making a holographic phone call and sending her messages at the same time.

Su Yan: Where are you? I'll come pick you up.

Jiang Zheyu silently quickened her pace and went out, feeling as if she was out having fun and not coming home at night, only to be caught and questioned by her husband.

Now that you mention it, it seems she met two orcs that day.

Those two orcs actually had feelings for her! The more I think about it, the more plausible it seems!

She quickly shook her head to dismiss the idea.

After Jiang Zheyu left the restroom, he was about to answer the holographic projection call when suddenly the holographic projection phone went black.

She blinked in surprise. Wait, is Su Yan really that impatient? He died so quickly?

That's not right, Su Yan isn't that kind of person.

As Jiang Zheyu thought this, he looked at the quantum computer and found that the entire quantum computer was like it had crashed, turning into a black and white television that had short-circuited.

The next second, her entire computer signal disappeared, and the screen went completely black!

Jiang Zheyu realized something was wrong. Generally, if something affects the magnetic field of a quantum computer, one possibility is that someone maliciously brought in a jammer, or the signal might be weak in the mountains and forests. But this was definitely not the case here.

However, another possibility is that the Zerg have interfered with the magnetic field of this area.

Jiang Zheyu, who had recovered his mental strength in three or four minutes after being comforted, was now feeling somewhat dazed.

She slightly widened her brown eyes, looking at the building in front of her that was becoming somewhat swaying, feeling a strange and distorted sense of light and shadow.

She even felt a slight dizziness in her head.

A long, slender hand landed on her eyes.

"Erect a mental barrier."

The man's cold voice rang in her ear.

Jiang Zheyu recognized the voice.

Moreover, as the man approached, her dizzy mind gradually cleared up.

However, she subconsciously asked, "How do I erect a mental barrier?"

The man seemed to pause for a moment, then a very soft chuckle escaped from the corner of his lips, “Concentrate your mental energy and envelop your mental domain.”

Jiang Zheyu did as instructed, seemingly understanding something, just like creating a closed space in Su Yan's spiritual realm last time.

"Okay." Jiang Zheyu grabbed the man's hands with both of hers, trying to take them off.

The man pulled his hand away from hers as she exerted force, but at the same time, he grasped her hand.

Jiang Zheyu saw Feng Qi in a black military uniform.

“Jiang Yuyu, this place will be very dangerous later.” Feng Qi looked down at her. “That Su Yan is really negligent. How could he let you come out alone so late? Why don’t you leave him and I’ll go with you?”
