I don't know when it got dark.
It started to drizzle in the sky.
In the lounge, Jiang Xuxu listened to Lu Youyu's explanation of the doll's origin and his eyes fell back on the doll in his hand.
After looking at it carefully for a while, he suddenly reached out and twisted the doll's head off.
"hiss!"
Jiang Xuxu's sudden move stunned everyone present.
Lu Youyu subconsciously covered his neck. At that moment, he inexplicably felt as if his neck was twisted off.
Jiang Xuxu took out a utility knife from somewhere and scraped the back of the doll's head. After a while, a white lump-like object was scraped out.
Director Chen couldn't help but move closer and asked, "What is this? It looks familiar?"
"It should be... human bones."
Jiang Xuxu said.
Everyone present gasped when they heard the sound.
Director Chen quickly moved away from that thing.
Lu Youyu's face turned pale, and his voice trembled.
"How did the broken bones get inside the doll..."
"A classmate of mine who also likes to play with dolls told me that there are dolls made from human bodies in foreign countries. Usually, such objects with dead tissue attached are more likely to be used as a medium for evil spells."
Jiang Xuxu said, looking at Lu Youyu, "Since this doll was specially customized for you, it means that the other party was attracted to your body from the beginning, and..."
Seeing her pause, Lu Youyu couldn't help but ask in a trembling voice, "What else?"
"And luck."
Jiang Xuxu looked at Lu Youyu's face and the fortune shown in his fate palace was obviously much weaker than when he first saw him in the morning.
At first she thought that her bad luck was caused by this round of unexpected disaster.
But when I thought of what Jiang Xiaoyun hadn't finished saying, I suddenly had another guess in my mind.
If Lu Youyu's fortune had not been weakened by this disaster, but had been handed over to the system...
Everything seems to make sense.
The so-called system actually used its own energy and the so-called rebirth method to steal the luck that originally belonged to the original body.
Now that the system has disappeared, Lu Youyu's luck has not been restored, which can only mean that... what he sealed in the jade token at that time was only part of the opponent's energy.
Systems like this may exist elsewhere.
…
Tong City.
Lu Xuexi looked in the mirror and saw that there was no trace of the wound on her forehead anymore. Even the skin on her face had become smooth and tender, and a smile finally appeared at the corners of her eyes and eyebrows.
"If I had known that I could forcibly absorb luck in this way, I wouldn't have to spend so much effort to improve my favorability."
Originally, her first target was Jiang Su, and she used a doll she gave him a few years ago. But somehow she failed that night, and it also aroused Jiang Huai's suspicion that there was something wrong with the doll in her doll room...
Fortunately, she gave away more than just that one doll.
As Lu Youyu is a popular young actress, even if only one third of her luck is sucked away, it will be enough to restore her to her original state.
As Lu Xuexi was thinking about it, she saw in the mirror that her originally smooth and delicate skin began to darken visibly.
Her face changed immediately and she asked the system what was going on.
In my mind, the emotionless mechanical voice of the system was even colder than at any other time.
[System: The subsystem failed to seize Lu Youyu's body. The main system's energy is damaged and needs to borrow part of the host's luck for emergency repair.]
"How could I fail? What should I do if you borrow my luck?!"
Lu Xuexi looked at her dark yellow face in the mirror and was so angry that she couldn't bear to look at it.
The system only told her to absorb the luck value from other targets as soon as possible to replenish it, and then fell into hibernation.
Although it can use the method of taking over the body to forcibly absorb the luck, this method is too risky. Now that its existence has been noticed by Jiang Xuxu, it must keep a low profile for a short period of time.
Lu Xuexi didn't get a response from the system and was so angry that she couldn't help but stomped her feet.
Soon she regained her composure.
Fortunately, the wound has healed completely, and the rest... I can just borrow some from Jiang Cheng.
After all, his favorability score is the highest among the Jiang family.
Fortunately, I had foresight and followed Jiang Cheng to Tong City in advance.
Neither Lu Xuexi nor the system cared about Jiang Xiaoyun, who served as a substitute.
That was actually a living soul that the system randomly extracted from the library.
…
At this time, in a factory dormitory in a county town far away in Ontario.
When Jiang Xiaoyun opened his eyes in bed, he was still in a daze, as if he didn't know what day it was.
Just as I was dozing off, I heard a familiar voice coming from the live broadcast room that my roommate on the opposite bed was watching.
[…I’m sorry for worrying everyone. I’ve recovered…This is all thanks to Xuxu. She’s my lifesaver.]
Lu Youyu's voice came from her roommate's phone. Jiang Xiaoyun felt vaguely familiar with it. She sat up and asked her roommate,
“Are you watching Inspiration?”
When her roommate saw that she had woken up, she couldn't help but smack her lips.
"Emma, you're finally awake! Xiaoyun, you took too long of a nap. It's already dark outside! You should order some takeout, or you won't be able to make it to the night shift."
Jiang Xiaoyun did not respond, but just sat there stupidly. After a while, he spoke.
"I seem to have had a dream."
She said, "I dreamed that I was a star."
It's just that the dream was too vague and she couldn't remember what happened in it.
When her roommate heard what she said, she just laughed.
"Who doesn't want to dream of becoming a big star? I even dreamed that the richest man's son was chasing me."
