The next day.
Su Ran got up early, and Su Fuling had also arrived at the villa. After being given permission, Aunt Zhao came in to help her pack her luggage.
[This is the current check-in location. Would you like to check in now?]
"Sign in."
[Congratulations, host, on acquiring the [Divine Healer] skill. This skill can detect all illnesses in the world, and possessing it allows you to cure all intractable diseases!]
The required drug may not exist in the world; the host must use the world's medical knowledge to develop the drug, but this process is time-consuming.
[System's friendly suggestion: We hope this host will use this skill as sparingly as possible, as the benefits outweigh the drawbacks. While you use this skill to save everyone you wish to save, the karmic consequences of your actions will also be subtly at play. You will pay a corresponding price for this.]
Su Ran was stunned for a moment upon hearing this, and raised her hand.
Is it causality?
Did the emergence of that system touch upon cause and effect? And what will be my ultimate fate?
"System, what was the final result?"
The system didn't speak immediately. It was pondering the God's intentions, because in the Three Thousand Worlds, interstellar beings like them shouldn't appear on Blue Star.
But why did he come?
He had considered this from the beginning, thinking it was just a sudden occurrence, but he forgot that every interstellar space has its own laws of cause and effect, let alone Blue Star, which is not considered outside the three thousand worlds of the system mission.
But the final result of examining this world.
The country is prosperous and the people are at peace.
China is prosperous and flourishing.
Su Ran smiled and remained silent. This outcome was good enough.
...
After having breakfast, Su Ran sat on the sofa.
What time is your flight?
Upon hearing this, Su Fuling said, "It's nine o'clock sharp. We can pack up and leave."
...
Mangshi Airport, Yunnan Province.
Stepping out of the airport, I felt a slight coolness, a welcome relief from the sweltering heat of Shanghai.
Su Fuling had made arrangements well in advance. An SUV was parked outside the airport. After the group got in the car, Su Jia sat in the passenger seat. The driver was a local who was very familiar with the area and had excellent driving skills.
Su Ran had been driving for nearly an hour and a half since leaving the airport, but they still hadn't reached their destination. "How much longer?"
Su Fuling glanced at the navigation. "Miss, it's a three-hour drive to our destination, followed by a five-hour hike into the mountains. We'll start the hike tomorrow, and once we reach the foot of the mountain, we'll go to the guesthouse we arranged in advance, rest for the night, and then set off again early tomorrow morning."
Upon hearing this, Su Ran looked out the window at the scenery.
Unlike the towering skyscrapers of bustling Shanghai, this place has mostly three- or four-story buildings and vast stretches of land planted with crops.
Surrounded by trees and grass, it offers a sense of leisure and nature, a welcome return from the city to the countryside.
It was nearly 2 PM when they landed, and almost 8 PM when they reached the foot of the mountain. It was a bit unsafe to go up the mountain at night, but to Su Ran's surprise, what she thought would be a day was actually a whole day without even seeing the destination.
...
"Miss, we've arrived."
Su Ran heard Su Fuling's voice and opened her eyes. She saw that the sky was slowly getting dark. After getting out of the car, she saw a bamboo house guesthouse.
"I'm sorry, miss, according to our investigation, this is the only guesthouse in the area that is somewhat better."
Su Ran waved her hand, saying that she had come to see the people she was sponsoring. If the area were full of high-rise buildings, the economy wouldn't be so backward. "Let's go inside."
The driver walked in front, followed by Su Fuling, while Su Jia stood beside Su Ran the whole time, protecting her safety.
Inside the guesthouse.
After speaking with the three people, the driver handed them the keys.
Su Ran quietly observed the layout of the guesthouse as soon as she entered. The guesthouse was three stories high, and the first floor was probably the dining area, with bamboo tables everywhere, and several people were eating at the tables.
The people dining on the first floor were also carefully observing them as they entered and checked in. Su Ran and the others sensed this as well. Su Jia silently moved to Su Ran's side, shielding her from the scrutinizing gazes of those around them.
Su Ran didn't sense any malice from the other party, so she didn't pay any attention to it, but she still couldn't be careless about the other party's appearance.
"Let's go back to the room first."
Su Fuling nodded upon hearing this, and the group went upstairs.
...
Inside the room.
The three sat down at the bamboo table. "Miss, we haven't had much contact with the group downstairs. It's a bit strange. This guesthouse used to be rarely occupied. In previous years, the daily occupancy was only about 10 people. Now, the occupancy is probably more than 30."
Su Ran tapped her fingertips lightly on the bamboo table, listening to Su Fuling's words, what was the purpose of this group of people suddenly gathering here?
It might just be a coincidence, but we should be careful.
Su Ran considered for a moment and said, "Let's just finish our own business. There's no exchange of benefits between us, so we won't clash, but we should still be careful."
Su Fuling and Su Jia nodded. Su Fuling also explained the situation of the sponsor. The group chatted until late, and Su Ran finished washing up and went to bed close to one o'clock in the morning.
Not long after falling asleep, Su Ran was awakened by a slight tremor. She sat up and seemed to hear a very soft popping sound.
There was a knock on the door, and Su Fuling's voice rang out, "Miss, it's pouring rain outside. It washed away a small hill, and the roads are blocked. The temperature difference between day and night is huge, so you don't need to come out."
Su Ran didn't reply, but looked up at the window. The heavy rain pounded against the glass, and every now and then a flash of lightning would light up the entire night sky.
Su Ran put on her shoes and walked to the window. She lifted the bottom of the curtain and looked out. The rain was pouring down, making a pattering sound as it hit the ground.
He pulled over a bamboo chair and sat down, then took out a cigarette from his backpack and lit it.
[Host, the people outside haven't left yet.]
"Where did Su Canling go?"
The person speaking outside the door wasn't Su Fuling. She had already told him last night that there was no need to come and call her tonight.
[Su Fuling was awakened by the tremor and went out to check the situation, while Su Jia stayed on the first floor to eavesdrop.]
[Host, the people outside have left, and Su Jia has gone upstairs.]
Su Ran poured the hot tea from the table, and then heard a knock on the door. Su Jia's voice followed. Su Ran opened the door, and Su Jia blew out the cold air from his body and lingered outside for a moment before entering the house.
"Miss." Su Jia bowed slightly. "Please sit down. What's the situation outside?" Su Ran looked at her lit-up phone. It was only five in the morning, and she was just as annoyed as Su Chen.
It disturbs people's sleep.
"A sudden downpour occurred tonight, and the heavy rain caused mudslides in the nearby mountains. Fortunately, there were no houses nearby, but this heavy rain is unlikely to stop anytime soon."
Su Ran took a sip of hot tea, frowned, and asked, "The rescue team has arrived?"
Su Jia checked the time, nodded and then shook his head. "They're still on their way, but they won't be here for a while. There are no casualties here, just that the road is blocked. There are casualties elsewhere, and the rescue team is out there conducting rescue operations."
Su Ran nodded. "Have Fu Ling communicate with the locals and send some relief supplies over. Arranging for a coffin can't be done in a short time."
"Yes, Miss, we'll arrange it right away. It's still early, so please get some more sleep."
