The Explosive and Badly Ended Stand-in Story (V)
[The function card "Unlucky" was used successfully]
[The host's current wish power value is 2, please use with caution]
Jiang Yuanshi used up the cards he had previously stockpiled. As the prompt sounded in his ears, he looked at the human-shaped arch draped with red cloth on the stage and felt very happy.
It is better for people who cannot speak to keep silent.
The red cloth arch began to move, and a scene of alien struggle began to unfold.
The guests in the audience were very quiet and didn't make a sound, but the way they covered their mouths and turned their backs and trembling shoulders gave many of them away.
[Unlucky] makes the opponent unlucky, but not life-threatening, lasts for 10 minutes.
The time it takes to use a wish power of one or two points is quite touching.
This is probably the most valuable card Jiang Yuanshi has ever redeemed.
"What are you all standing there for? Go and help Mr. Gu!"
The lights dimmed again, and a crowd of attendants came forward.
Jiang Yuanshi avoided the attack of those people in the dark and slipped aside quietly.
It’s a pity that the lights in the hall were dimmed, and the lighting on the stage was still brightly lit.
The circular light surrounded Gu Zhi and the waiter.
It’s more conspicuous and more like a stage play.
Jiang Yuanshi guessed that the speech he had searched for online would be useless.
This also saves me from having to endure the nausea of thanking the other person.
In Jiang Yuanshi's eyes, there was nothing wrong with Gu Zhi treating Jiang Yuan as a substitute in the early stage as a transaction.
After all, there was no emotional foundation, and giving money really saved Jiang Yuan's family.
But later on, the issue of emotional deception was put aside.
Judging from the fact that Gu Zhi bribed someone to cause Jiang Yuan's sister to be accidentally infected, the other party is a pure murderer.
When Jiang Yuanshi was alive, he read many novels in the hospital. This one describes a man chasing his wife to the crematorium. Can they really be together?
Later on, the author did whitewash the protagonist, because these were all learned by Jiang Yuan from Gu Zhi's friends in the club. There was no evidence. The truth was that Gu Zhi had not done these things. Those people just made up stories to piss off Jiang Yuan and play tricks on him.
Gu Zhiqing is innocent.
But these were all explained by Gu Zhi to Bai Yueguang after the death of Jiang Yuan's family.
Too abstract.
"You!" Gu Zhi broke free from the banner, frowned and glared at the waiter who accidentally stepped on his foot.
Gu Zhi raised his hand slightly and then stopped. He slowly stood up, clutching the banner tightly, and picked up the microphone that had fallen to the ground. "I'm sorry, something unexpected happened. I'm sorry to have embarrassed everyone. Please wait a moment."
He was a very respectable man, except that he was not very respectable when he was being pinched.
Others pinch people's necks and say they'll give you their lives.
Gu Zhi was just better. He strangled the man and killed him directly. It was Jiang Yuan who was killed.
Although it was a bug issue at the time, Gu Zhi's character was not much better after the correction, and he kept jumping between the domineering president and the yandere.
Gu Zhi was able to strangle Jiang Yuan, his substitute, to death. I really don’t know what he would do if he met his white moonlight when a bug occurred?
Do you burn the other person and eat the ashes?
I don’t know when the white moonlight will appear.
Jiang Yuanshi looked at Gu Zhi who was already reorganizing his hair on the stage and estimated the time.
It's time for the feature card.
It looks like his wish to avoid giving a speech will be dashed.
However, Jiang Yuanshi also made mistakes. Just when he was ready to be called at any time, an accident happened again.
When the waiter on the stage went down, his body tilted for some reason, and he fell down with the waiters in the back row. The last one fell towards Gu Zhi who was holding the microphone stand. Gu Zhi dodged to the side to avoid it.
Gu Zhi felt his feet slipping, and when he looked back he found that half of his body was hanging in the air.
About to fall off the edge of the platform.
The crowd of onlookers moved away.
But the pain did not come.
Gu Zhi opened his eyes and saw a strange yet familiar face.
Amber eyes, cold face.
Gu Zhi subconsciously said: "You are..."
"ah--!"
Gu Zhi fell to the ground, screaming in pain.
He had just sat up and before he could see clearly, the other party took a step back.
Gu Zhi: …………
Jiang Yuanshi: ………………
After witnessing Gu Zhi falling off the stage and being carried like a princess by a strange young man, he didn't have time to complain about the weirdness of the scene.
The next second, the other party withdrew his hand and dropped the person to the ground.
It's like taking a task and then throwing it away after using it.
Wait…mission.
Jiang Yuanshi squinted his eyes and tried hard to see the other person clearly. At this time, the system prompt sound came to his ears.
[Detected that Bai Yueguang Chen Shi has appeared, host please cooperate to complete the task]
Jiang Yuanshi looked at Gu Zhi who stood up not far away, and had a bad feeling in his heart.
Gu Zhi felt pain, Gu Zhi was angry, Gu Zhi turned around to ask, Gu Zhi looked up at the other person.
Gu Zhi... looked up?
If that person is Bai Yueguang.
Jiang Yuanshi's eyes scanned back and forth between the two of them, comparing them.
One high and one low, one low and one high.
……………………?
Jiang Yuanshi: 0.o
So, the protagonist is... a bottom?
————
In fact, the truth is sometimes not that important.
When Gu Zhi saw who it was, he asked in surprise, "Are you... Chen Shi?" After the other party nodded with a wooden face, Jiang Yuanshi no longer had any idea about the subsequent plot.
It was so explosive that he needed to eat something to calm down.
Jiang Yuanshi’s wish not to give a speech was fulfilled.
Gu Zhi returned to the stage, the surroundings darkened, and the spotlight shone on Gu Zhi. He looked like a peacock spreading its tail feathers, and it seemed that he had not yet realized that Bai Yueguang was a head taller than him.
Jiang Yuan was just brushed aside.
Jiang Yuanshi, an unknown person who was ignored by everyone, quietly took the plate while the lights were not on in the audience, drove across the dining table, took the food he liked, and found a dark corner to show off.
In order to prevent the smell from mixing, after showing off the meat and vegetable combinations of the staple food, he quietly pushed his wheelchair to find dessert.
It became Jiang Yuanshi's pleasure to cut small triangular pieces from the whole cake.
Came back with a full plate of mixed cakes.
Jiang Yuanshi ate silently while glancing at the stage in the distance.
Gu Zhi alone spoke for most of the day at the Gu Group's speech, which was even longer than the speech of the principal of a Gao China school.
It seems I can eat slowly.
Jiang Yuanshi had just put Napoleon into his mouth when the highball glass handed to him saved him from almost choking to death.
Um, boiled water?
"Hello, sir, I've never met you before. Excessive energy intake is not conducive to recovery. You've already eaten more than six pieces of cake. I suggest you stop."
Jiang Yuanshi, who was caught: ………
If it were someone he had never met before, Jiang Yuanshi would only feel that the other person was very familiar and had no sense of boundaries, and then he would leave at the first opportunity and look for the next suitable corner.
Jiang Yuanshi wiped the non-existent cream and looked at the other person innocently.
Under the dim light, the person who came was tall, and from a level perspective, all he could see were legs. Jiang Yuanshi raised his head and looked up to see the other person's complete face.
The vision became blurred in the dark, but the superior physical condition of the other person's face was not hidden, it just hurt the neck.
Jiang Yuanshi pushed his wheelchair backwards to avoid the other party becoming an inverted triangle double door in his eyes.
"Hello, thanks for the reminder, but I only ate one bite of each piece of cake, so I shouldn't have exceeded the limit."
The other person's tone was gentle but emotionless, and he said bluntly: "But before that, you also ate 25g thick-cut steak, 55g thick-cut fried pork chop, 30g roast suckling pig, 33g crispy roast duck, and creamy mushroom and bacon pasta..."
Why are you still naming the dishes?
Jiang Yuanshi interrupted in a low voice, "It's not that loud, Mr. System."
Mr. System replied: "Hello, you have the wrong person. My name is Shen Shi, not Mr. System you mentioned."
Jiang Yuanshi blinked: "Oh, hello, my name is Jiang Yuan, sorry for the mistake, goodbye."
After Jiang Yuanshi finished speaking, he stuffed the last piece of chocolate cake into his mouth and pushed his wheelchair towards the ice cream area.
Shen Shi is not "Mr. System": ……………
Shen Shi, who was not "Mr. System", followed him and stopped him in time when he finished eating the first ice cream ball and was about to dig out the second one.
"You can't eat anymore. Your stomach is still repairing."
"Mr. Shen's choice of words is very strange. And how did you know?" Jiang Yuanshi narrowed his eyes. "You followed me? Besides, we don't know each other. What I eat has nothing to do with you, right?"
Shen Shi sighed helplessly and put the ice cream spoon back to its original place. "Don't eat it, Su... Um."
The other person paused mid-sentence, a hint of pain in his voice.
Jiang Yuanshi stopped pretending, "So the complete identity will be punished, but I seem to be fine, Mr. System."
"According to the superiors, due to a bug, this character cannot reveal your identity, otherwise you will receive a slight electric shock."
"But is it okay for you to tell me this? Or is it just the word 'host' that can't... well, I'm shocked."
"After testing, it turns out to be true."
So what’s the difference between this and trying to steal a bell while covering one’s ears?
Jiang Yuanshi rubbed his right hand that had been electrocuted. Fortunately, he finished the ice cream and only dropped the spoon.
The system bent down, picked it up, and held it in its hand.
The whole process was slow and had noticeable lags, like a machine.
"Mr. System, it seems you haven't tamed your limbs yet."
The system replied seriously: "Yes, the human body is difficult to control."
"First time using it?"
"Yes."
Jiang Yuanshi sighed and leaned back in his wheelchair. "It seems like I've encountered all the bugs in your department."
The system affirms.
"So you were acting?"
"yes."
"Why, you clearly recognized it."
"Well, it's fun."
Facing Jiang Yuan's light tone, the system discovered a new characteristic of humans: the human heart can feel tired.
It was a long time before the system learned an adjective in human communication: "pretend to be good."
But I can't describe it as a system that just started working. I just feel that my department and I have made serious mistakes in our assessment of Jiang Yuanshi.
“By the way, Mr. System, do you know Shen Shi’s medical field?”
Since the original novel did not mention it specifically, it was only mentioned ambiguously by Bai Yueguang Shen Shi and Gu Zhi after Jiang Yuan was imprisoned, saying that there was a burn patient around him and he would take Shen Shi to see him if he had the chance, and then this foreshadowing was forgotten.
"So, according to the setting, Shen Shi studies medicine, but there is no specific direction?"
"Yes."
"Will the setting change based on the characters' words and actions?"
"Mr. Su...Jiang can try to fill in the missing details. The success rate is 90%."
"No, I'm talking about you, Mr. Shen." Jiang Yuanshi moved to the side and proposed a new direction. "As two people who are on the same mission, Jiang Yuan can fill the gap, so Shen Shishi should be able to do the same."
The system understood but was not sure. After all, there had never been an incident of the system entering a character's body before.
"Then let's give it a try." Jiang Yuanshi made the final decision and extended his hand to the other party. "Happy cooperation, Mr. System."
The system searches for human behavior in the brain——
Shake hands, hold hands, high five.
The system extended a hand, and the touch felt similar to the seat in the car, but a little softer.
They completely wrap the host's hand.
"It's a pleasure to work with you, Mr. Jiang."
"Mr. System, it's a handshake, not holding my hand."
"Okay, Mr. Jiang. And please don't move towards the ice cream machine anymore."
Jiang Yuanshi: ………………
