Save the Family Doctor (10)
Who is it that invites others to eat for free and gives them business cards? Are all the restaurants owned by your family?
Jiang Yuanshi rubbed his eyes that were almost blinded by the light and said, "Forget it. It's made of gold after all. I can sell it for money at worst."
"Host, this is indeed the hotel pass."
"Really? Does he own all the restaurants? Wait, how did you get on my hands?"
A small black and red snake snaked along the back of the hand to the index finger, coiled around the index finger twice, with the snake's head touching the fingertip and the snake's tail covered by the sleeve. The black and red color made the originally white skin look even whiter to a sickly color. The snake became a decoration, like a ring or a brand mark.
"Would you like to turn on the haptic function now?"
Jiang Yuanshi lowered his eyes and moved his index finger. The little snake blinked slowly and spit out its tongue. "Open it."
“Okay, the function is turned on.”
The next second, a chill spread from his fingertips to his arms and then his entire body. Jiang Yuanshi couldn't help but shudder. The system, detecting the host's heart rate pausing and then surging, asked, "Since your heart rate is too high, do you want to shut it down?"
Jiang Yuanshi took a deep breath and said, "It's okay, it's not around my neck."
The host's remarks were always nonsensical, and Z01 was often confused and could only reply, "Normally I wouldn't climb onto your neck."
Jiang Yuanshi: "Thank you very much, but would you climb if the situation is not normal?"
"It depends."
"for example?"
"For example, when the host is left with only the head."
“…………You are cursed.”
"I'm sorry, that's not what I meant. It's just a possible answer based on big data calculations." The little snake shook its head. Jiang Yuanshi thought it was being cute, but when he thought it was the system, it was just an illusion. It must be the habit of snakes.
Jiang Yuanshi returned to the real question: "Have you calculated my success rate?"
Z01: "No, it's based on the outcome after the system and the host lose their connection. There's a possibility that the host will be torn apart."
Jiang Yuanshi: "You guys are really good at calculating big data. Is there any possibility of him being alive?"
"The initial calculation gave a 6% chance of survival," Z01 said, looking at Jiang Yuan. "But after adding the hard conditions, the probability of survival increased to 66%."
"What conditions?"
"Jiang Yuanshi."
"arrive."
When his name was called, Jiang Yuanshi answered subconsciously. Then he reacted and pointed at himself and said, "Am I that condition?"
The little snake nodded.
Jiang Yuanshi said "Oh" meaningfully, and a strange smile appeared on his previously obedient face. Just when Z01 thought something was wrong with the host, Jiang Yuanshi said, "Where's the novice mission we agreed on? Why is there only a 6% survival rate at the beginning? Are you kidding me?"
Z01 was completely unaware: "I'm not kidding you. Because of your existence, this world is indeed a novice world."
Jiang Yuanshi: "Why does it seem like the world difficulty was upgraded because of me?"
Z01: "I've analyzed you before, and your judgment accuracy is 88.3%."
Jiang Yuanshi was shocked: "It's really me? I didn't do anything."
"I can't analyze this right now." The Z01 bot's response had a suspenseful, half-hearted quality. Jiang Yuanshi rolled his eyes and followed the instructions weakly. "Don't analyze it. Analyzing it for too long will only give me a heart attack and it's bad for my physical and mental health."
"I have ceased my analysis of you after your request."
"You're quite a nice person." Jiang Yuanshi walked in the white. At first, his heart would tighten every time he stepped on it, fearing that he would step on empty space in the next second. Now, just after he got used to it, the emptiness under his feet suddenly turned into nothing at all. Walking on it felt rough and frictionless. Jiang Yuanshi lowered his head. At this moment, a piece of cement appeared under his feet with every step he took, and the system's prompt sounded in his ears -
"Navigation completed, you have arrived at your destination."
Jiang Yuanshi looked up, and blocks of color appeared in the blank space in front of him. The bustling streets stretched out to the end like a whirlpool. Figures appeared on the road, and their facial features and clothes could not be seen clearly, just human shapes. There was a hustle and bustle, and noisy sounds were heard. Buildings were built on both sides of the hands and house numbers were hung. He walked along, avoiding the crowds, and accidentally brushed past them. It really felt like he was touching someone.
Jiang Yuanshi walked forward and smelled the fragrance of rice.
After looking around and seeing the house number clearly, he finally understood why Fan Dian's card was universal.
Because all the restaurants here have the same name [xxx Fandian]
Even the signs on the carts say [Stir-fried food], [Seafood food]...
All the "rice" has become "fan".
It's funny but also a bit weird, especially since these people only have human outlines, and it looks even weirder when they are copied and pasted. It's obviously not a horror movie, but it grasps the essence of horror movies - leaving blank space.
Insufficient funds left a lot of room for imagination, and Jiang Yuanshi had never hated his rich imagination as much as he did today.
He pinched the system's head with two fingers and said, "System, it's a shame you don't make horror movies. You can't save money like this. Promise me you won't do this in your next life."
It sounded like the system was about to crush the snake's head and tell him to be more careful in his next life. However, the system just said, "Okay, I'll give you feedback. So, are you going to play with my head again?"
Jiang Yuanshi hummed, and as expected, he began to rub the cheeks of the snake's head with two fingers. In full view of everyone, he carefully pried open the snake's mouth with his thumb. The two long fangs were extremely sharp. Jiang Yuanshi asked three questions in a row like a curious baby: "Will it hurt if it bites? Is it really non-venomous? Can I touch it?"
Z01 opened his mouth obediently and replied helplessly, "It will break if it bites. It's a defensive measure. It's not poisonous to you, so you can touch it."
Jiang Yuan's eyes lit up when he got the response. He rubbed the tip of the tooth with his thumb. It didn't hurt, like the end of a needle. His thumb wasn't enough, so he extended his other hand and poked the system's fang with his index finger. Z01 noticed that the host's eyes were particularly bright and lively when faced with something new and interesting. It was strange, human. Could an adult human also behave like a cub? Z01 hadn't seen other cases, so naturally, he had no way of knowing the outcome.
Z01's senses were still active, and he felt a little itchy from being touched. He reminded her, "Host, it's time for you to eat."
Jiang Yuanshi said "OK, I'll get it right away", but he didn't stop his actions. Z01, who had read a lot of early childhood education books, thought that it was time to give him some punishment so that he would stop. So when his fingertips rubbed against the fangs again, the fangs fell and bit the skin.
Jiang Yuanshi felt a dull pain in his fingertips. There was no bleeding, but there were two small dents on the tip of his thumb. Jiang Yuanshi understood and nodded the snake's head, saying, "I know. Sorry, I won't play anymore."
"You should go eat."
"Oh, but you bit me so hard."
"I didn't bite you."
"That hurts too."
"The host's happiness index has increased, and it is suspected that he is being scammed."
"Wow, you promised not to analyze me."
"You were the first to commit fraud."
“Hmph.”
"Host, in the human world, only pigs grunt constantly." Z01 said mercilessly. Jiang Yuanshi did not get angry but said, "Then you are lucky. You are actually entangled in pig's trotters. I haven't eaten pig's trotters since I died."
"..." Z01 was defeated by the host's strange train of thought. After a moment of silence, the system said, "Host, walk 100 meters north and then 50 meters south from the pig's trotter shop to reach it."
Jiang Yuanshi was stunned. He was just joking and didn't really want to eat pig's trotters, but he still asked, "Excuse me, which direction is south? I can't tell east, south, west, north, and north. I only know up, down, left, and right."
Z01, a natural navigational figure, hadn't expected this. After a pause, he said, "Then go straight ahead for 100 meters, turn left, and walk 50 meters to reach the destination."
Jiang Yuanshi now understood, but not quite. The directionally challenged man asked, "How far is 100 meters?"
Z01 asked: "How do you find your way in real life?"
"Depend on the navigation."
“What if there’s no navigation?”
"Then remember the shops. For example, after turning left from my school and crossing the street, the seventh shop on the street is a fried chicken shop. To the left of the fried chicken shop is the Cultural Market, and to the right is the shopping mall."
In short, I just rely on the food shops to remember the route.
Z01 asked a soul-searching question: "What if there's no food for sale?"
Jiang Yuanshi said calmly: "Then I'm lost."
Z01: ………
"But I usually carry my phone and rely on navigation, and I can't travel far, so it's not a big problem. But now it's no longer possible. All the stores have the same name and look the same." Jiang Yuanshi had just finished speaking when a dark red path appeared under his feet, winding all the way to guide him forward. He looked down at the snake and then at the guide, "Did you do this?"
"Yes, it's time to eat."
Jiang Yuanshi: "Then the golden one before wasn't you?"
Z01: "That's the world guide, it's kind of built into the overall system."
Jiang Yuanshi: "You also have a master system. Does the system boss also have to bring the host with him?"
Z01: "In layman's terms, the overall system is equivalent to the department's setting for the novel world. It doesn't exist in itself. The system boss is actually the main god. The main god can also lead the host through the system, but it is rare. It mainly depends on the main god's will."
"Really? Bosses really have a lot of choices. So when are you going to rest? Are you really not planning on leaving get off work?" Jiang Yuanshi childishly walked over step by step on the dark red path. Z01 said, "It depends. If the host is on a bye, he'll rest."
Jiang Yuanshi said "Oh", leaving no footprints on the road. "What if the host you change to is more troublesome than me?"
Z01: "That's unlikely. I'll screen it."
"Then I was also screened out by you. Your department has so many bugs."
"..." That makes sense. If it were even more difficult than Jiang Yuanshi's situation, Z01 would be confused just thinking about it. "I'll try my best to avoid this situation. Besides, after the system changes hosts, it can't be switched back to the original host."
"I see."
"Unless the host applies."
"Is it possible?" Jiang Yuanshi asked. Z01's vertical pupils stared at Jiang Yuanshi and said, "This is a one-time power that belongs to the host, and the system's power is considered complete after the application is replaced."
"Forget it then..." Jiang Yuanshi muttered softly. His voice was so soft, so fleeting, like a breath, that Z01 didn't hear clearly and asked, "What did you just say?"
Jiang Yuanshi tilted his head and looked at the little snake, then smiled and said, "Nothing, I'm hungry, let's go eat some pig's trotters."
Never mind, it’s nothing.
never mind.
