While Bai Yuzhi was pondering what was so special about the jade pendant, Bai Shuhui came in with some food. On the plate was a small cake with some cream and a small steak.
It can be seen that this is already quite good food. Bai Yuzhi didn't want to make things difficult for the two old people. They had tried their best to provide the best for their daughter.
So Bai Yuzhi quietly finished the food on the plate and told Bai Shuhui and his wife that she was a little tired and wanted to rest. She waited until the two old people left before she curled up in the quilt.
This room was not very good. The most basic heating did not meet the standards of white jade, so she stayed in bed all the time.
Fortunately, there was a system. The white jade asked the system to transform into a furry giant panda. He nestled in the panda's arms, feeling the warmth, and finally he had a peaceful sleep.
She would figure out the matter of the jade pendant sooner or later, but the most important thing now was to establish contact with Ren Gui.
The opportunity soon arrived.
The next morning, Bai Yuzhi was sleeping soundly in her room. She had lived extremely comfortably in the past few worlds and it was common for her to stay in bed. This was the first time that she was woken up by a knock on the door before she woke up naturally.
The person knocking on the door was extremely rude, and the knocking was so loud that it shook the earth. Bai Yuzhi let the system hide in his mind and spoke lazily.
"Which annoying guy, do I owe you money?"
The delicate young lady couldn't stand being woken up early in the morning, so it was natural for her to curse.
The person outside the door was silent for a moment, and then spoke in a voice as familiar as Bai Yuzhi.
"You don't owe me money, but you owe me points."
It’s Xu Xu.
This is a cold tone.
Bai Yuzhi knew what points were. When the doomsday came, the universal currency changed from money to points, at least in the Forbidden Ship Base.
There are usually three ways to obtain points. The first is to take on various tasks like Xu Xu and others, including finding people, finding objects, and killing zombies. In addition to obtaining points, if it is a private commission like Bai Yuzhi, you can also get rewards from the task issuer.
The second type is people like Bai Shuhui and his wife. Although they do not do ordinary tasks, they can bring new development to the base through their own research. Such people can exchange points with their research results.
Another type is to provide the base with necessary living resources or labor. For example, water-based mutants can provide water, fire-based mutants can provide heating, lightning-based mutants can generate electricity, and strength-based mutants can transport goods.
The place where Bai Yuzhi lives now happens to be within the jurisdiction of Xu Xu. The room she lives in now was exchanged for her by Bai Shuhui and his wife using their points, but this is not enough. If anyone wants to obtain the right to live in each room, they must regularly hand over points to the person in charge of this area.
In other words, this room is not for permanent residence, and Bai Yuzhi is more like a tenant here.
Because Bai Shuhui and his wife are scientific researchers, they have been specially approved by Ren Gui to live permanently in the dormitory near the laboratory without paying additional points, so they don’t know that Bai Yuzhi will need to pay more points to let their daughter live in Xu Xu’s jurisdiction.
but……
Bai Yuzhi stood through the door, not showing any intention of inviting Xu Xu in. She dragged her voice, "I owe you a damn thing, you idiot! I've already given you the points, and now you're blackmailing me?"
Xu Xu didn't expect Bai Yuzhi to be so rude in scolding people.
Since she was reborn, she founded this base with Ren Gui. Now one-sixth of the base is under her jurisdiction. How could anyone dare to insult her like this?
She admitted that she did try to find fault, but with Bai Yuzhi's current status, shouldn't she be respectful to her?
Xu Xu felt very angry along the way. The person she had planned to get rid of was now giving her a cold look.
Xu Xu clenched her fists, wishing she could smash the broken door right now. Her face darkened. "Your parents did give you some points, but Bai Yuzhi, you're already so old, don't you know what it means to be self-reliant?"
Bai Yuzhi really couldn't understand why the heroine, who was such a good-looking girl, sounded like her father as soon as she opened her mouth, and kept preaching to him no matter what.
"You don't understand what I'm saying. I said I paid, so get out of here. Talking to you makes me look stupid."
Xu Xu is here to cause trouble now. Don't think that she doesn't know what the heroine is up to. She just feels bad because she didn't find a chance to get rid of herself on the way back, so now she tries every means to trick her out.
Xu Xu was not the only one outside the door. Several members of her team were also there. They had escorted Bai Yuzhi all the way and naturally knew what kind of temper he had. Someone pushed Xu Xu.
"Forget it, Captain. This girl is a delicate young lady, different from us. Why not just take the points?"
Xu Xu, already irritated by Bai Yuzhi, was furious. She shook off the team member's hand and sneered, "Different from us? What's so different? It's the end of the world, and you still think you're the superior young lady? If you say you're different, then you're definitely different. You're just a piece of trash, without even any special abilities."
Xu Xu's reaction also shocked the team member who tried to persuade her. He originally wanted to help Xu Xu calm down, but who would have thought that his words would hit Xu Xu right in the heart.
"She has to go today, whether she wants to or not. Open the door for me."
Xu Xu said coldly.
If this had happened before or just after her rebirth, Xu Xu might not have done this.
However, the time when Bai Yuzhi traveled through was already the third year of the apocalypse. During these three years, Xu Xu had completely forgotten the guilty feeling of being reborn to snatch opportunities from others, and instead was replaced by the pride of being in a superior position for many years.
Except for Ren Gui, Xu Xu could no longer tolerate anyone disobeying him.
Especially since this person is as white as jade.
This person made Xu Xu realize what inferiority was when they first met in their youth.
Xu Xu touched his collarbone hidden under his clothes inconspicuously, felt a slight stinging burning sensation, and smiled.
Even if this thing comes from an illegal source, what does it matter? After all, it is still in her possession.
In order to please the powerful Xu Xu, some of the psychics who participated in this mission flattered her and raised their hands to start knocking on the door. The white jade girl inside the door was still half-lying lazily, her long black hair pressed down by her own small face, making her look particularly heartless.
"System, when will our villain come to the rescue?"
[Host, hurry up! There are still 3...1 seconds until Ren Gui arrives at the scene!]
"I'm sorry, I didn't see anyone here. From the distance, I thought it was just a group of mutant monkeys."
A bolt of lightning struck down along with Ren Gui's pretentious apology, and the two psychics who were about to break down the door let out a scream in an instant.
Here we come~
