Chapter 215 Behind the Popular Stone
Huo Sijun stood up, lowered his eyes, and looked at the young man in front of him seriously.
Just then I realized that this boy is shorter than the average boy?
He used to think that the boy's height was affected because his body was damaged due to living on an inferior planet for many years.
But is this really the case?
"Senior Brother?" Nan Chi frowned. Huo Sijun felt strange. This really wasn't her illusion!
"Let's go. You've been absent from school for more than ten days. Does that mean someone will take care of my official business?" Huo Sijun stretched out his long legs and went out.
Nan Chi breathed a sigh of relief when he saw his expression finally return to normal. "Brother, you're joking! Your attendant looks very capable!"
"He's quite capable, but he's not me after all, and he can't replace me."
Nan Chi: Why are you showing off this inexplicable sense of superiority?
After spending a long time with this man, Nan Chi discovered that this guy had no idea about the ways of the world and didn't consider other people's feelings at all when he said something.
That’s right! A person’s living environment determines that person’s character.
It's like a person who you see is living a painful life, but you cannot empathize with his pain.
Likewise, wanting others to feel your pain is a pretty stupid idea.
The two went to see Zong Lie, and the Zong couple were also there.
"Xiaojiu, Xiaochi is here?"
Even though it was the second time he saw this bright and charming lady as soon as he entered, Nan Chi still couldn't take his eyes off her.
So beautiful!
"Brother, are you still not awake today?" Huo Sijun said to Nan Chi, who was no longer surprised by the sight of a beautiful woman.
Mrs. Zong, on the other hand, found it quite funny. After confirming that Zhonglie was fine, she relaxed her tense heart and smiled more often.
"The spiritual sea of consciousness is damaged. It just needs a repair process. It will be fine in a few days." Zong Xu said with a smile.
For him, it is the best that Zong Lie can get the current result.
You must know that if a king alien species invades, the only option is to wait for death, and even if it is rescued, its foundation will be damaged.
"That's good." Nan Chi finally shifted his gaze to Zong Lie and found that he no longer looked as lifeless as he did a few days ago, and his face was no longer pale.
Suddenly, Nan Chi's gaze stopped at a small pendant on Zong Lie's chest.
"That is..."
"That was given to me by a sister. I heard that this thing has some kind of restraint on alien species." Mrs. Zong said with a smile.
Huo Sijun looked at the pendant again and again, then took out a similar stone from his body for comparison.
"This is fake! It's useless except for its resemblance."
"What?" The Zong couple looked at each other, and Mrs. Zong's smile disappeared.
The first thing that came to her mind was that there was something wrong with the person who gave the jade to her!
"It seems the people who bought the stones were also deceived. I remember every pendant sold by 'a black shop' exactly, and there were no duplicates."
Huo Sijun turned on the computer and directly sent a piece of information to the Zong couple.
Those were the items he had asked Su Li to sort out recently. They were the items sold by a black shop since it opened.
He even found out the buyer and owner clearly.
When the two finished reading the information, their faces changed.
"Xiaojiu, you don't know that this kind of pendant is very popular in the interstellar world right now. Many people in the upper class have bought it. However, I have never heard of the store you mentioned..."
Mrs. Zong frowned, unable to figure it out.
"A very simple experiment can tell its authenticity." Huo Sijun pulled off the jade pendant from Zong Lie's body, and with a slight force of his thumb, the stone turned into powder.
"I see, this is the stone carving of the owner of the black shop." As he said this, Huo Sijun also exerted force with his thumb.
The next second, a powerful energy wave came from the stone, directly knocking Huo Sijun's hand away.
The jade was actually glowing and floating in the air.
"This..." The faces of the Zong couple changed.
"Uncle and aunt, don't you know the power contained in this jade?" Huo Sijun asked puzzledly after seeing the reactions of the two.
Mrs. Zong said hesitantly: "...Actually, I don't believe that a stone has such great power. The reason why I accepted the thing given by that lady is just..." It is not easy to refuse the other party's kindness.
Seeing her son like this today, she hung this thing on him for psychological comfort.
I didn’t expect that this small pendant actually had such amazing power. What was even more unexpected was that the stone I took was actually fake!
Nan Chi recognized at a glance that the amulet on Zong Lie was not from his hand.
What surprised her was that there were people doing counterfeiting in this galaxy!
He even managed to trick the ladies of high society into falling in love with him!
To be honest, Nan Chi felt very uncomfortable seeing the beauty being indirectly deceived.
"Xiaojiu, do you know the owner of that black shop? If there is any goods, can you get it first?" Zong Xu is a person who knows the goods.
"I don't know them, and this store hasn't put any new products on the shelves for over a month. I'd like to remind you that this kind of pendant is currently only made by this store. If you want to buy anything else... you'd better be cautious."
Huo Sijun said seriously.
Being cheated of money is a small matter, but it would be a big deal if there is a problem with the item.
After all, for a big family like the Zong family, everything they use is specially ordered by someone. If something of unknown origin like this gets in, it could easily cause trouble.
In the end, Huo Sijun left the only amulet he had to Zong Lie.
In the spaceship, Su Li came to meet them as soon as the two got off the shuttle.
"Sir, long time no see, and little brother."
"I haven't seen you for more than ten days. Senior Brother Su has become more handsome." Nan Chi said with a smile.
Then, her eyes passed Su Li and saw Lan Xiaomeng, who disappeared as soon as she left the secret realm.
"Nan Chi!" Lan Xiaomeng happily rushed forward and hugged Nan Chi!
"Uh." Nan Chi didn't expect the other party to be so enthusiastic when they met. She was caught off guard and attacked. Well, she admitted that she was not guarded enough against a girl like Lan Xiaomeng!
"Cough!" Su Li coughed lightly and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, the young people nowadays are really going downhill!
Huo Sijun, on the other hand, glanced at the two of them and turned to walk towards his dedicated office on the spaceship.
Su Li hurried to follow.
Nan Chi finally pulled Lan Xiaomeng down and asked, "Where have you been these days?"
"It's all because of my elder brother. He captured me as soon as I left the secret realm..."
"Lan Mo?" Nan Chi raised his eyebrows and took the breakfast from the robot.
"That's him!" Lan Xiaomeng was furious at the thought. She hadn't even had time to check on her senior brother before he was taken out of Taichu Island...
"They just care about you." Nan Chi took a sip of milk and a bite of toast. Well, Su Li's way of doing things is becoming more and more like the style of the Blue Star.
"You don't know how bored I am. I can't play games, and there's no one to chat with..." Lan Xiaomeng chattered on the side.
