Qi Shao thought Xie Sen was really weird. He suddenly jumped into the swimming pool to swim, which was the same swimming pool where the contracted beast had just been given a sterilization bath.
He stood and watched for a while, and soon found something wrong. The water in the pool was very clean and less than two meters deep, and he could see the bottom at a glance.
He thought that the person who was going to swim was paddling his hands and feet in a random manner, which was not the way he was swimming at all, and was gradually sinking to the bottom.
Qi Shao's face changed, and he jumped into the water with a "plop". He swam to Xie Sen in a few seconds and rescued the unconscious Xie Sen from the water.
When Xie Sen woke up and opened his eyes, he saw the snow-white ceiling and smelled a faint smell of disinfectant. He turned his head and met the eyes of Maine who was sitting on the stool beside the bed.
Maine supported his chin with one hand, put down his hand when he woke up, leaned forward and asked, "How do you feel?"
Xie Sen sat up and looked around. All he saw were white walls. "I'm fine. Is this a hospital?"
Maine nodded: "You fell into the water and fainted last night. You have been unconscious for eight hours."
Xie Sen glanced at the time. It was already past six o'clock the next morning. He recalled the scene of falling into the water and rubbed his forehead. Mr. Qi would definitely think he was a fool.
He threw back the quilt and got out of bed, and while putting on his shoes he asked Maine, "Have you been taking care of me?"
"Yes." Maine stood up. "Wait a minute. I'll ask the doctor to check your body and make sure you're fine before you go through the discharge procedures."
"No need to bother, I'm in good health," Xie Sen thought. He knew his condition much better than the doctor did. "I still have to go to work!"
Maine frowned. "How can you say you're in good health? The doctor said you're overtired and malnourished. You're in very bad condition."
Xie Sen was speechless. There were no vegetables here. Malnutrition was normal, okay? As for being overly tired, that was complete nonsense. He was not tired at all.
At Maine's insistence, Xie Sen still underwent an examination. After the examination, the doctor said, "Nothing serious is wrong. Just make sure you get more rest. When was the last time you drank nutrient solution?"
Xie Sen was confused. What is 'nutrient solution'?
Seeing him like this, the doctor sighed and said, "Did you forget to drink it? No wonder you are malnourished. The Ministry of Health has issued many reminders that you must drink a bottle of nutrient solution every week. You young people just don't listen."
He wrote a prescription: "Buy a bottle of nutrient solution, drink it as soon as possible, and then you can be discharged from the hospital."
With Maine's help, the discharge procedures were completed quickly. Xie Sen sat in the passenger seat holding a 300 ml bottle of green liquid and asked curiously, "What is this made of? It's selling for 100 star coins a bottle."
Maine set the course and answered, "A mixture of juices from various large non-edible plants, rich in the nutrients we need."
Xie Sen suddenly realized that it was no wonder that people here ate meat every day and did not get sick. It turned out that they had plant-based nutritional supplements.
He took a sip of the nutrient and his face wrinkled instantly. This was too unpalatable! The strong smell of grass, dirt and an indescribable spicy taste mixed together. It didn't feel like a nutrient but more like poison.
Maine tilted his head to look at him: "Not used to it? How long have you not drunk it?"
"I don't remember." Xie Sen said vaguely.
Maine frowned. "Each citizen is limited to one bottle of nutritional supplement per week. If you miss it, you won't be able to buy it. You must remember to buy it next time."
Xie Sen didn't expect that something so unpalatable could be bought but not yet available. He nodded, thinking about the meat-eating meals he had had these past few days, and forced himself to endure the discomfort as he drank the nutritional supplement in big gulps.
The two returned to the apartment. Xie Sen took a shower and changed into clean clothes. When he walked out of the bedroom, Maine next door had also changed his clothes and came out. His hair was slightly wet, obviously he had just taken a shower.
"I'm going to work. See you in the evening." He waved to Maine.
"You haven't had breakfast yet..." Maine's words were interrupted by a ringtone. It was Xie Sen's call.
Xie Sen answered the call, but hung up soon after. He spread his hands and said, "I have time to have breakfast. My manager asked me to rest in the morning and go to work in the afternoon."
He lamented, "And without a clean bill of health from the hospital, I'm not allowed to work the late shift!"
Maine asked, "Are you short of money?"
"Yes," Xie Sen said, "Luckily I made some money on the school forum before, otherwise I would be penniless now."
Seeing Maine walking towards the kitchen, Xie Sen quickly ran over and grabbed his arm, pointing to the sofa: "To thank you for staying with me all night, I'll make breakfast, you sit down and rest."
Maine glanced at his hand and nodded: "Okay."
Xie Sen walked into the kitchen, turned on the system, looked at the remaining energy value of fifteen, swallowed, thought about it, and turned off the system again.
Don't be too extravagant. You can only exchange it for one pepper at most. If you want to get the most out of it, you have to exchange it for an extremely spicy one. It is not suitable for breakfast.
He cooked the fried meat as usual, and after eating, he asked Maine, "Is there a supermarket nearby?"
"Yes, it's 300 meters to the right when you get out of the door."
Xie Sen said: "I'm going to the supermarket to buy some things, do you need anything?"
"No, I'm going out soon and will be back around 6pm," he said, turning on the bracelet and operating it a few times. "I've given you the gate permission. You can open the door yourself."
Xie Sen didn't expect that he would trust him so much, and was moved and said, "Good brother, don't worry, I will never touch anything."
Maine said 'hmm' and went back to her room to change clothes.
Maine came out of the room. Xie Sen was stunned to see him wearing a black baseball cap, a black suit, and black combat boots.
"What are you doing?" Why do you look like you're going to fight or do something bad?
Maine looked at him, hesitated for a moment, and uttered two words: "Keep it secret."
Xie Sen became more and more curious and worried that he would do something bad, but if Maine didn't want to say it, there was nothing he could do, unless... he would be followed!
The two went out together, Maine went to the parking lot, and Xie Sen walked towards the supermarket. Xie Sen took a few steps forward and saw Xie Sen enter the parking lot, so he quickly turned around and hid at the corner.
He decided to go to the parking lot and drive his shuttle as soon as Maine's shuttle came out and follow Maine.
The speed of traffic in the community is very slow. As long as he drives fast, he should be able to catch up.
However, after waiting for a long time, Maine's shuttle did not come out. Only three unfamiliar shuttles and a small truck came out of the parking lot.
Xie Sen thought about it, opened his bracelet and checked, confirming that there was only one exit in this parking lot. He continued to wait for another five minutes. His patience ran out, so he simply walked into the parking lot.
In the corner, his light blue shuttle and Maine's black shuttle were parked side by side. He knocked on the window of the black shuttle, but there was no response. He leaned against the window and looked inside, but could see nothing.
If Maine was here, he would definitely react when seeing him like this. This only means that Maine is not here and Maine did not drive the shuttle away!
Such mystery made Xie Sen even more worried. Could it be that Maine has turned evil and is just pretending to be evil, and has secretly begun preparing for bad things in the future?
No, maybe there is something else, Xie Sen thought. Maine even gave him the door access to his residence. How can such a good person, who is so easy to trust others, look like he has turned evil?
He left the parking lot and went to the supermarket as planned, buying ten kilograms of meat and some salt, which was the only common seasoning here.
After returning to the apartment, he went straight into the kitchen, turned on the system and exchanged for an extremely spicy pepper. The pepper grew on a pepper tree. He could smell the spiciness when he got close to it.
He took out a small bowl and gave an order to the pepper tree: Explode into the finest powder in the bowl, and don't spill it outside the bowl!
The branches of the pepper tree with red peppers carefully stretched into the bowl and stuck to the bottom of the bowl. The red peppers looked particularly beautiful against the white bowl.
Silently, the pepper exploded on the spot and turned into a ball of fine red powder. A little bit of powder floated in the air, choking Xie Sen and causing him to cough madly.
Xie Sen quickly took a plate to cover the bowl, praised the chili tree, and then recalled it to the system.
Xie Sen cut off a large piece of the meat he bought and put the rest in the refrigerator.
He cut all the large pieces of meat into long strips and made spicy jerky.
After it was done, the kitchen was filled with a strong spicy smell. Xie Sen's eyes and nose were red. He swallowed his saliva, opened all the vents, and fled out of the kitchen with a large plate of spicy dried meat.
He put the spicy dried meat on the table, drank two glasses of cold water, and washed his face with cold water before he felt better.
Coming out of the bathroom, he looked at the spicy jerky with shining eyes. Just as he was about to eat it, the phone suddenly rang.
"Hello, Xie Sen. I'm Ma Qun, the director of the Botanical Research Institute." The other party introduced himself directly.
Xie Sen still remembered him: "Hello, Dean Ma, what can I do for you?"
"As far as I know, your major graduation exam has ended, and the next step is a two-month internship. Are you looking for me to invite you to intern at the Botanical Research Institute?"
Xie Sen had no plans to change jobs: "Thank you, I have already found an internship."
"Think about it carefully. I don't think there is any unit more suitable for you than the research institute. You are a natural grower." Ma Qun said earnestly.
The corners of Xie Sen's mouth twitched. Does he look so much like a farmer?
People at the maintenance center also said that he was a natural maintenance technician. Could it be that he was destined to take care of either plants or animals?
Xie Sen said politely: "Thank you, I am very satisfied with my current job." Growing plants does not provide energy.
Ma Qun said with regret: "You are talented and have solid professional knowledge. It's a pity not to come to the institute. If you change your mind, feel free to contact me."
Xie Sen politely agreed. When he hung up the phone, he was still thinking, "As expected of the dean, he spoke so nicely and even praised my solid professional knowledge."
He soon understood why Ma Qun praised him so much. As soon as he hung up Ma Qun's call, he received the transcript of his graduation examination. The transcript included everyone in the department. He himself was circled in red in the first row, and the others were ranked in order of their grades.
He looked at the same names in the top one and two rows of his transcript and fell into deep thought. Could it be that the Botany Department was the worst department in the entire school?
He actually won the first place!
He entered the school forum to search for the Department of Botany, but before he found what he was looking for, he saw his name appear at the top of the hottest topic.
"Shocked! Xie Feicai got first place in the botany department in the graduation exam!"
Xie Sen rolled his eyes, your whole family is useless! He clicked in and saw rows of neat and orderly replies: The Department of Plants is finished!
