The System is a Conspiracy (Part 2) She caught the little carp. …
The wind in the early autumn evening is slightly chilly, like a flash of light on a pair of scissors.
The sound of the extremely sharp scissors cutting the fishing line is so subtle that it can be ignored, but it is like thunder in a clear sky.
"No--!!!"
The actress' pupils suddenly shrank, and she rushed towards the falling carp like a lioness. She ran so fast that her long hair was scattered and her shoes were lost. She outran one professionally trained first aid worker after another. She was like a bolt of lightning that suddenly appeared out of nowhere.
She faced the little carp and raised her arms upwards like an athlete running across the red line.
With a muffled sound, she caught it.
Under the huge force, she fell to her knees, her face flushed with adrenaline, "Baby! How are you? Tell me, are you feeling uncomfortable?"
The medical staff quickly surrounded it and carefully picked up the little carp. The actress's arms hung limply.
The little carp had tears in his eyes, but he said obediently, "Mom, I don't feel any pain. I'm fine."
The medical staff quickly examined the little carp. Apart from dizziness caused by congestion and skin injuries, the little carp did not have any serious injuries and would fully recover in half a month.
After hearing the result, the actress finally let out a sigh of relief. At this moment, she suddenly felt an overwhelming pain, which made her face turn pale instantly and a layer of cold sweat appeared on her forehead.
The doctor carefully placed her in a safe place. "The preliminary diagnosis is that both arms are broken, the leg muscles are strained, and muscle lysis may occur."
The doctor said admiringly, "You are a heroic mother."
Young Master Zeng was quickly subdued. Seeing that the situation was hopeless, he wanted to commit suicide, but was stopped in time by rescue workers.
Death is really the easiest thing. He has to live and face the scorn of the people and the judgment of the law.
Little Carp was not seriously injured. The sleeping bag that originally restrained her became a barrier to protect her. She trotted over and sat beside the queen. Looking at the scars all over her body, she didn't know where to start. Finally, she gently put her little face against the queen's, just like the queen did to her.
Feeling the warm touch on her face, the actress who had suffered from pain smiled, with tears in the corners of her eyes, and she closed her eyes and gently kissed her daughter.
In the movie, the heroine failed to save her daughter.
Outside the movie, she caught her little carp.
Suddenly, there was a splash of warmth on my face.
There were screams from all around, and the actress opened her eyes blankly, seeing the little carp that was rubbing against her the last second, with blood flowing from the corner of its mouth.
She slowly lowered her head, and wherever she looked, she saw blood red.
It was all blood sprayed out by the little carp.
The little carp fell down softly.
The actress opened her mouth wide and wanted to scream and call the little carp's name, but she was so frightened that her throat seemed to be stuck and she couldn't make a sound.
"The little devil is biting back!"
Jiang Qingshu rushed forward and scooped up the little carp. The little carp's face was as white as gold paper. Its right eye was still as clear as a child's, but its left eye had turned pure black, just like what I had seen before.
The little carp vomited blood in big mouthfuls, and the blood dyed her princess dress red.
A scream finally came out of the actress' throat. She struggled to stand up, ignoring her broken arms and strained legs. She staggered and knelt beside the little carp. "No! No!! I clearly stopped the attack! I clearly unbound you!"
Jiang Qingshu fed the little carp a pill, bit his fingertip, and drew a talisman on her forehead with blood. The next second, the little carp spat out the blood and the pill.
Jiang Qingshu was shocked and angry, and shouted at the queen, "What on earth did you wish for that little ghost? How come it started to backfire so early?"
The actress shook her head desperately, "I don't have a ghost! I hired a Kumantong!"
"I wanted to make a wish for the Zeng family to perish, but the system said that this wish was too great and that the Kumantong could not fulfill it. I could only ask the little ghost. I heard that the little ghost was jealous and was afraid that it would hurt the baby, so I made a wish to the Kumantong that I could escape the suppression of the Zeng family and successfully sign in to the company. I clearly sent the Kumantong away after signing in to the company! How could it be on the baby!"
Jiang Qingshu took out the talisman paper and pasted the little carp into a yellow silkworm pupa, but this only slowed down the speed at which the little carp vomited blood. The other eye of the little carp also began to gradually turn black, as if it was infected, and an evil smile appeared at the corner of its mouth.
"This is not a Kumantong, this is a little ghost, a little ghost that uses the little carp as a container - have you ever fed her blood?"
"No! What I offered were always snacks that children like! Why did the little carp become a container?!"
The actress almost went crazy.
I asked, “Don’t you find it strange that you’ve been so lucky since you were on the show?”
I looked at her and said, "You clearly said, 'The little carp will bring good luck to mom, right?'"
The actress shed tears in pain, "Because the system - the kind of system that is common in novels, when it came to me, it said that if I completed the task, I could choose a reward."
"My first task is to ask a Kumantong or a little ghost to complete the contract."
"After the contract ends, the reward I chose is to have my daughter's luck maxed out."
"I thought it was a reward, I thought it was a reward..."
She was shaking all over and whimpering in pain.
I looked at her and recalled the abnormalities that had occurred during our time together.
I see.
The one who actually made a contract with the little ghost was not the movie queen, but the little carp.
The little carp becomes the container of the little ghost, providing blood and food, and the little ghost makes the little carp extremely lucky.
It turns out that all the luck in the variety show was exchanged for the little carp's life.
No wonder the little carp had a high fever, no wonder the actress didn’t look haggard, but the little carp was malnourished and anemic, no wonder the backlash was so quick this time.
Because children are weak and have less blood than adults, even adults can be sucked dry by little ghosts and die, let alone a three and a half year old carp.
No wonder Little Carp asked me if I could be her father, no wonder she didn’t mind at all if the movie queen gave her a younger brother to share her love, no wonder she would rather leave and wanted the movie queen to have someone who treated her sincerely.
Because she knew she didn't have much time left.
She was about to die, and she was afraid that the movie queen cared too much about her, and that there would be no one to protect her mother after her death. So she wanted a father to protect her mother on her behalf, and she wanted a younger brother to share her mother's love so that her mother would not be too sad after her death.
The little carp's face almost turned into an evil and terrifying look. It grinned and cheered for its new life.
Only that still clean eye, with tears in it, was trying its best to smile, "Mom, the little carp doesn't blame you, the little carp loves you."
The actress crawled over on her knees. She wanted to hug the little carp, but both her arms were broken and she could not lift them up.
She was like a mother animal that had lost her cub, and a whimper that was not like a human voice came from her throat. She banged her head on the ground, and tiny drops of blood splattered.
"Please, please, save my child."
"You can take my life, or even my ghost after I die, but please, save my child!"
Jiang Qingshu closed his eyes in pain, his voice was hoarse, "...No, it's too late. The little ghost has been with her for too long, and can no longer be separated from her body."
Her face was filled with regret. "If I had known this would happen, I should have forcibly separated the little ghost. Even though the little carp's soul would be damaged, at least it could survive..."
Those who are devoured by the little ghosts will have their souls scattered.
The actress' face was filled with despair, but suddenly she seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw, with a little hope swaying in her pupils, like a candle in the wind, looking at me, "President, President, can you save my daughter?"
"I saw the task behind the system. It asked me to capture you, but I didn't accept it. The system is related to you. Do you have any way to save my daughter? Please! I am willing to work like a slave for you both in life and after death!"
"The mission is to capture me?"
"Yes! This is a series of tasks! The first task is to adopt a Kumantong or a little ghost and complete the contract."
"The second task is to gain your favor. Depending on the degree of intimacy, you will receive different rewards."
She looked at me eagerly, "After I invited the Kumantong, I felt that it was a bit evil and was afraid that it would affect the little carp, so I quickly unbound it from the system."
No wonder I didn’t feel uncomfortable when she approached me on the variety show. I thought it was because she knew when to advance and when to retreat. It turned out that she didn’t want to conquer me at all. She just wanted to see what was different about me.
If this little ghost is a product of the system...
I raised my hand, "Strip off."
The expression on the little carp's face changed from a grin to fear. It screamed and tried to hide in the little carp's body, but it couldn't withstand the strong suction and slowly floated up from the little carp's body.
Floating in the air was a baby covered in purple.
A look of fear appeared on its little face, and the whole ghost was sucked into my palm, turning into a ball of dark blue mist.
The little carp's eye color returned to its original clear color.
The actress looked at the little carp anxiously, watching her open her eyes and call her dazedly and weakly, "Mom?"
The actress' tears fell to the ground.
"Mom is here. Mom is here."
＊＊＊
The group of little ghosts were taken back to the research institute for observation.
Because of the experience of taming the little ghost, the researchers did not know whether to classify it into the technology area or the metaphysics area.
"Put it in the metaphysics area. This thing can be solved with magic power."
Jiang Qingshu was holding the transparent jar that held the little ghost and shaking it back and forth, with a hint of anger in his movements.
I wondered, “Why couldn’t you just strip it out at the time, but the system could?”
Jiang Qingshu explained, "Because this soul is not from this world, it doesn't have sufficient spiritual energy now, and the existing spells are useless against it."
Jiang Qingshu thought for a moment and made an analogy. "The system that brought it here is equivalent to the magic weapon that protects it. When I cast a spell on it, it is equivalent to grabbing it directly through the world barrier and the magic weapon that protects it. It requires a lot of power. And your [Stripping] directly broke through the protection of the magic weapon and snatched it away."
[Stripping] has special properties. In addition, it has been studied and improved many times by the research institute. It can mobilize enormous energy, and external systems are powerless to resist it.
Jiang Qingshu finished his speech and summarized it in one sentence, "I am a human trafficker who lured it out through two layers of security, and you are a robber who broke into the house with a cannon."
I was so confused by her analogy that I thought I should tell the Qian family and ask them to help her with her cultural studies.
Who could have thought that the founder of metaphysics would fail in Chinese.
…
The movie queen and the little carp stayed in the same ward.
The actress was in a terrible condition, and the little carp was no worse. What was even worse was that the actress hit her head too hard and injured her face and both arms. It would take a hundred days to heal the broken bones, plus she had isothermal myolysis. It would probably take at least half a year to recover. Although many brands chose to postpone the contract performance after learning of her experience, some brands were angry at her dodging behavior and asked her to pay compensation according to the contract.
As for the compensation, the actress was not worried. After experiencing a life-and-death experience, she had let go of everything. She knew that money could be earned again, and as long as the little carp was by her side, it was fine.
From their description, I learned the whole picture of the system.
After learning of her parents' death, the actress desperately wanted revenge.
She wanted revenge, she wanted the Zeng family to pay with blood, and let them accompany her parents to hell. She would do anything for it, even at the cost of herself.
So when faced with the system, she signed the contract without even thinking about it.
However, the little carp was not included in the sacrifice.
Therefore, she chose to stop the loss in time, but she didn't expect that the system was a conspiracy and the maximum luck value was a scam.
On the day when the actress chose her luck value, the little carp met the system.
The system asked, [I am the lucky system, do you want to bind with me? You provide me with blood, and I will give you luck points.]
Its mechanical voice was bewitching, "Whatever you wish to happen will happen."
The screen showed the cold treatment and injustice that the actress suffered after she re-signed with the company.
The former movie queen was taken by her agent to the table to accompany drinking, and the investor put his hand on her thigh with a lustful look.
The actress slapped him in the face and was forced to apologize to him.
The actress drank cup after cup of strong liquor and vomited all over the place. Many people pointed fingers at her.
"She's already thirty years old, it's a blessing for her that the boss likes her."
"You've been played by someone else, why are you pretending to be noble?"
"She is a movie queen, but this is all."
…
The little carp jumped forward to chase away the bad guy, but only jumped over the light screen.
"Go away! Go away!"
The system tempted, [Do you want to help your mother? Just sign a contract with me. ]
The little carp agreed.
After Jiang Qingshu heard this, he explained to the tearful actress, "The contract of the little ghost, especially the contract of using the human body as a container, must be agreed by the person himself, so in fact, the luck value you chose will not directly affect the little carp."
I frowned.
Contract trap: the price that both parties need to pay is not stated before the contract is signed.
The previous attackers were divided into three categories, one of which was the natives of this world.
Some of them were bound to the strategy system, while others were inspired by their hearts. In the end, they all naturally chose to attack me and gain my favor.
Now that I think about it, they chose to capture me as their final mission. Perhaps someone was guiding them secretly.
No matter what the original purpose was, they would eventually come to me and try to gain my favor.
Just like this system.
Whether it's to improve the luck of the film queen or to let her return to the silver screen, it's all to provide her with the conditions to meet me.
If she had not untied herself at the beginning, facing the little carp vomiting blood, she could only continue to complete the strategy tasks for me and obtain task rewards from the system to exchange for the opportunity to let the little carp continue to live.
The system is a conspiracy and luck is a trap.
The ultimate goal is to seduce her and conquer me.
