Extra seven
They left the second world quietly. Before going to the pixel world, Jiang Yuanshi decided to solve the real problem now. After all, only when the original author wakes up can the game be updated better. He can't always trouble the main god who is responsible for studying, finding a partner, finding relatives, and managing the bookstore. After Jiang Yuanshi and Z01 finish dealing with things, he still has to go to help and repay the favor.
Jiang Yuanshi and Z01 came to reality. In the intensive care unit lay a patient wrapped in gauze, with a weak heartbeat and an unrecognizable face. Outside the transparent wall, an old man with a hunched back and a cane was reluctant to leave. The old man was wearing a plain dress and had an elegant demeanor, but his hair had turned gray, his face looked much older, and his eyes were bloodshot.
When the old man got tired of standing, he pulled out a folding stool and sat there refusing to leave for a moment. The medical staff couldn't persuade him to leave. Sometimes strangers would give the old man something, and everyone knew it. After all, after what happened, who would not understand the old man's behavior of not leaving?
The patient the old woman was looking after was her own grandson, who had suffered extremely severe burns due to an accidental car accident and had a narrow escape from death. At first, the parents who survived in the car lamented their child's obsession with games and that he had to go back to the car to get the computer regardless of the danger, which led to his current situation. But they still tried their best to beg the doctor to save their child. That behavior caused many onlookers to sigh about the parents' difficulties, but the reversal of events happened just a few days ago. One night when the patient was out of danger after entering the ICU for the fifth time, an unknown person in a nurse's uniform entered the room and pulled out his oxygen mask, but coincidentally, he was seen by someone else and caught in the act.
After calling the police, the police interrogated the patient and found out that the suspect was hired by the patient's parents, and the suspect was also mentally ill. Somehow, this news spread throughout the hospital, and the patient's parents showed up as usual, looking completely clueless. They even found no evidence after the search. After all, the suspect was sick, so what if he was just talking nonsense?
After the patient's parents left the police station, they pretended to be arrogant and said in an interview that they really could not afford the surgery fee for their child, and that it would be painful for him to live, so they did this because they could not bear it.
For a while, some people sympathized with them, believing that life was indeed difficult, but they were soon slapped in the face.
Just as the patient's parents were leaving, someone suddenly broke the news on the Internet that the car accident was not an accident. The person who released the news could not find the source address, only a video of the highway. In the video, the genius named Jiang Yuanshi kicked the door out immediately after the car accident, rescued his parents and let them escape, then turned around and got into the back seat of the car. After the genius entered the car, his parents closed the door with their own hands very forcefully, and then turned around and ran away. This was the only car on the road that day.
The people who were locked in never came out, and then there was a raging fire and two people standing in the distance.
Although the victim's helplessness cannot be seen through the video, the behavior of the two murderers is enough to make people despise and curse them.
It would be fine if it was just an accident, but why did he close the door so hard and then reach out to pull it, and then run away so quickly when he couldn't open it.
The whole set of actions was smooth and flowing, and even in the second half of the video, there were the crying and pleading of the two escapees after the police, medical staff and firefighters showed up.
People were unable to find the publisher, but they could not question the unreality of the surveillance. That was a living person, and they could not just stand by and watch. Everyone on the Internet started a relay, determined to pass on this video and speak out for this life that was strangled.
During this period, someone provided photos of the hospital saying that the parents were just pretending and had never taken care of the patient at all. It was the patient's grandmother who came to take care of him later. There was even audio of the couple meddling in the affairs of an old man in the corridor.
Jiang Yuanshi's parents were arrested, and only the old man was left in the hospital waiting for his child to wake up.
The old woman looked at her cell phone and realized it was the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the Lantern Festival. No wonder someone in the hospital sent her dumplings today. It would be great if Yuanyuan could have some too.
Visiting hours have arrived tonight.
The old man put on protective clothing and wrapped the crutches in his hands with ease, walked into the ward, and chatted with his grandson:
"Yuanyuan, you know what? Today is the Lantern Festival. It's time to eat glutinous rice balls. When you were little, you loved to pull me over and ask for sesame-filled glutinous rice balls. Unfortunately, you're grown up now, and grandma doesn't know if you still like sesame-filled glutinous rice balls."
The person lying on the bed never opened his eyes. Grandma talked to herself for a long time. It was almost time. The old woman wanted to wipe away the tears from the corners of her eyes, but unfortunately she was still wearing protective clothing. She moved out little by little and heard an extremely hoarse voice behind her. The cry of a newborn kitten was louder than this voice, but it made the old woman burst into tears. The voice said:
"I also like to eat...Grandma."
The old man turned around and met a pair of amber eyes.
“Bang!”
The cane fell to the ground, breaking the silence and hopelessness of the room.
[Beep——]
[All tasks are completed when the host Jiang Yuan is detected. Please make a wish——]
…
Jiang Yuanshi woke up, and was even very lucid. For a time, everyone thought it was a last-ditch effort, but he proved with his actions that he was really alive. The treatment that had been suppressed for a long time finally made new progress, and everyone was very happy. However, Jiang Yuanshi's burns were too severe, and it was difficult for him to recover to his normal appearance. In addition, the medical expenses were also a considerable expense. The previous expenses were all paid by Jiang Yuanshi's parents using Jiang Yuanshi's card. They did not leave anything behind when they left, and his grandmother could not afford so much money.
Just when he was at a loss, a new opportunity came to Jiang Yuanshi. Because of the popularity on the Internet, a related research institute quietly contacted Jiang Yuanshi. They specialized in artificial skin grafting and hoped to find Jiang Yuanshi as a volunteer to graft his skin free of charge. If the graft failed, he would not die, at most the status quo could be maintained.
After Jiang Yuanshi discussed it with his grandmother and got her consent, Jiang Yuanshi nodded.
A few days later, the patient and his family were taken away overnight, but no one knew where they went.
Of course, this cannot be made known to others, because this research institute does not actually exist in reality. Chunchun is just an excuse Jiang Yuanshi made up in order to restore himself to a normal person.
He discussed countermeasures with Z01 before returning to his body.
How can a patient who has been burned to the point of being in human form be restored to his original appearance in public?
It is almost impossible in reality, but fortunately, the fact that Jiang Yuanshi can bind with the system is beyond cognition, not to mention that it has now become "order", and the abilities it possesses are on par with those of gods, but its authority is higher than that of the current gods.
In addition to the wishes Jiang Yuanshi got when he completed all the tasks, he successfully took his grandmother to a fabricated sanatorium to recuperate. Every day he pretended to be taken away for research in front of his grandmother, and then pieced himself back together bit by bit like picking up fragments.
Almost half a year has passed in a flash, and Jiang Yuanshi has recovered almost completely. He can even ask for the dumplings made by his grandma.
I don’t know why, but grandma feels that the child she hasn’t seen for many years is still so kind to her, and even becomes more spoiled after growing up. It’s really strange, but she is very happy. After all, watching the little white ball grow into the handsome boy he is today, grandma often wonders if she had plastic surgery on her grandson during the skin grafting.
Whenever this happened, Jiang Yuanshi would always take out his student ID to protest his innocence, but it was obvious that he looked much better in person than on his student ID.
Jiang Yuanshi said silently, "Ms. Gu Siyuan, the resentment of students in school is heavier than that of ghosts. I didn't close my eyes to sleep and filmed it, which is the greatest respect for the cameraman."
The grandmother, who was called by her real name, hit her grandson on the head with a spoon. They talked a lot in the past six months. Later, at Jiang Yuanshi's suggestion, the grandmother changed her name accompanied by a doctor. After that, her grandson started calling her Grandma Gu or Ms. Gu every day like an alarm clock, as if he was afraid that she would forget.
This child...Ms. Gu shook her head, changed a new spoon, stirred the porridge, handed it to Jiang Yuanshi who was able to move, and said, "Come and eat."
Jiang Yuanshi said with a sullen face, "Where are the sesame dumplings you promised? Ms. Gu, you're not keeping your word."
"Do you still want to eat glutinous rice balls? I made them for you before because you didn't tell me you had a bad stomach. If you knew, I would never give you a child. Do you know how badly the doctor told me after you had a stomachache after eating six glutinous rice balls last time? That kid is like an encyclopedia, and he kept talking to me and gave me a headache. If you want to eat them, ask him first."
Jiang Yuanshi curled his lips: "That guy won't agree."
When the doctor arrived, a man dressed like a catwalk-style trench coat knocked on the door and walked in. On his name tag was an English name starting with Z. When Ms. Gu saw it, she smiled and said, "Oh, Dr. Xiaozhi is here."
Doctor Xiaozhi nodded: "Hello."
Originally, she wanted to call him Doctor Z, but the grandmother found it difficult to pronounce. Then the other party said that he had a Chinese name, "Jiang Zhi", which was also a coincidence. It was the same surname as her grandson, and after they got to know each other for a long time, she changed his name to Xiao Zhi.
"Want to ask how the patient is doing today?"
"Everything is fine, except that they are clamoring for tangyuan."
"Why did you tell him this, Grandma?"
The doctor nodded and took them to a specialized clinic for a routine checkup. On the way, Jiang Yuanshi, sitting in a wheelchair, whispered, "Tell me! Did all my grandma's dumplings end up in your stomach?"
Z01: "Didn't grandma say there were no glutinous rice balls today?"
Jiang Yuanshi: "But I smell sesame and glutinous rice. She definitely brought it today, but it went into your mouth. Tell me! What did you do? Why did I have a stomachache last time?"
Z01 said calmly, "You were the one who said you wanted to be an ordinary person and live a normal life when you came to this world. So, naturally, you'd have a stomachache after eating six glutinous rice balls in a row while shielding your divine power."
When Jiang Yuanshi saw that he was out of his grandmother's sight, he lay back and rubbed the back of his head against the doctor's abdomen and said, "You are obviously angry. I want to recover slowly like this."
Z01: "Yes. If you use divine power, you can tamper with everyone's memory in an instant, so there is no need to be weakened by the influence of the world."
"But if we miss even one mistake, something will go wrong. Besides, we don't have complete control over our power yet. It's better to take it slow. This will not only save effort but also help us gradually develop our control."
Z01 looked at the man's face, which was paler and thinner than before, and said coldly, "You're just trying to force yourself to suffer."
Jiang Yuanshi drawled out, "That's right, so it should be paired with something sweet, like sesame-filled rice dumplings or something like that." He turned his head, tilted his head, and looked up at someone with squinting eyes: "You have to compensate me! I'm so miserable right now."
Z01: "..."
He couldn't spit it out. If possible, Z01 also wanted to leave some for Jiang Yuanshi to take back to the space to eat, but for some reason, Grandma Jiang specially sent him the dumplings and watched him finish eating them. Her eyes this morning were really uneasy and she felt like she was sitting on pins and needles.
Z01 subconsciously wiped away the nonexistent sweat. Jiang Yuanshi asked curiously, "What's wrong with you?"
Z01 thought about it and finally told Jiang Yuanshi everything. Jiang Yuanshi was stunned for a moment, then realized what was going on. He scratched his face sheepishly and said, "Sorry, I think I told my grandma that."
"?" Z01, "What did you say?"
Jiang Yuanshi said: "When we were chatting, my grandmother asked me if I had any girls I liked, and I said you are pretty good."
Z01:?
Is this jump right?
Jiang Yuanshi also knew something was wrong. He sighed, "There's nothing I can do. It seems like she's already discovered it and is just waiting for me to reveal it. I might as well reveal it sooner rather than later."
Z01 frowned. "How did your grandmother find out? And how do you know she found out?"
Jiang Yuanshi: "Well, it's just intuition. After all, I'm pretty good at reading people's expressions. But I don't know how grandma found out. How about asking her some other time? Forget it, I'll just wait until you're better and then I'll take you to a regular position."
Jiang Yuanshi's thoughts were all in sync. Z01 was clearly not a human, but now his heart was throbbing. "Is he going to meet the parents?"
"Haven't you already met? I'll give you a formal meeting ceremony later, okay?" Jiang Yuanshi twisted his body, grasped the back of the chair with both hands, and looked up at Z01, saying eagerly, "So don't be mad at me, boyfriend."
“…”
Z01 is down.
In the distance, the grandmother was wearing reading glasses and looking at the two children whose faces were almost touching each other. She couldn't help shaking her head. In her eyes, her grandson had smiling eyes, which showed his rare happiness.
She took out her cell phone, opened her notepad, and sighed at the list of countries where same-sex marriage is allowed. Why are there so few?
I'm so worried, I'm worried to death.
