Chapter 306 Past Events
Chapter 306 Past Events
Zhao Ruoming walked out of the room silently and, led by his bodyguard, went to the empty room next door.
Di Wanshu was sitting in a wheelchair drinking milk, not tea, not red wine, but milk.
The bodyguard closed the door and left. Zhao Ruoming looked at the contents of Di Wanshu's cup and said sarcastically, "Do you still want to grow taller?"
Di Wanshu smiled and said, "There is a cow in the kitchen. Its newborn calf was killed and made into fried steak. The cow is full of milk, so I ordered a cup."
Di Wanshu nodded at the table: "Do you want a drink? I left you a cup. It's heated and sterilized."
Zhao Ruoming actually walked to the table and touched the glass of milk. The milk was at a moderate temperature and exuded a mellow aroma. There was also a sugar jar next to it, and perhaps two spoonfuls of sugar were added to it.
Zhao Ruoming picked up the cup, walked to Di Wanshu, and threw the cup in his face.
The milk flowed down Di Wanshu's face like a white waterfall. Di Wanshu was not angry, he took out the big towel that had been prepared beside him and started to wipe it.
After drying his face, Di Wanshu snapped his fingers and gave himself a quantum cleansing. His mean look almost made Zhao Ruoming want to slash him in the face.
Di Wanshu folded the towel neatly and placed it next to him. He looked into Zhao Ruoming's blazing eyes and suddenly laughed.
"Xiao Zhao." Di Wanshu chewed on these two words between his lips and teeth, his tone was tender and there was a hint of ambiguous ending. "This is the first time I call you like this. It feels very strange."
Zhao Ruoming didn't say anything. Di Wanshu rolled the wheelchair to her side and circled around her like a butterfly: "You don't talk much today? What's wrong? Are you in a bad mood?"
Zhao Ruoming opened his lips and slowly uttered a few words: "What do you want to tell me?"
"You are still so straightforward." Di Wanshu sighed, "I have been studying the culture of your planet recently. I thought we should chat for a while."
Zhao Ruoming turned around and walked away, but when she reached the door, a voice stopped her in her tracks.
"Zhao Di."
Zhao Ruoming turned around and frowned: "What?"
"His name." Di Wanshu raised his chin and stared at Zhao Ruoming without blinking. "Don't you want to know his name?"
Zhao Ruoming was really stunned this time: "Say it again?"
"Ji Zhaodi. This is his name." Di Wanshu said, "203 won't even tell you this?"
Zhao Ruoming's breathing almost stopped. She was very sure that she had not heard wrongly. Di Wanshu spoke clearly, emphasizing each word, and there was no room for error.
These two words are the specialty of Zhao Ruoming's hometown. Zhao Ruoming doesn't need to ask anything to know which two words they are.
But...but, how is it possible?
The other person is obviously a man, how could he have this name?
"Do these two words have any special meaning?" Di Wanshu seemed a little curious. "Ji Zhaodi also hated these two words at the time. After coming to the Wanxiang Universe and completing two tasks, she saved some points and went to the registration office to change her name."
Zhao Ruoming certainly knew why she hated these two words, because Zhao Ruoming himself felt both pity and disgust for such a name. But the person lying next to him was indeed a real man!
Zhao Ruoming asked, "What did she change it to?"
"Ji Zhao." Di Wanshu recalled for a moment before answering the question. He actually had no impression of this name. If it wasn't for the fact that he wanted to piss off Zhao Ruoming, he might never have thought of these two words again in his life.
Zhao Ruoming had a lot of questions to ask. Why did Ji Zhao become a man? Why did she become like this? What was wrong with her system? What did Di Wanshu want to do? What the hell was this trend?
Countless questions flashed through her mind. Zhao Ruoming felt like her brain was about to explode and she had a headache.
203 silently gave Zhao Ruoming an injection of painkiller and a shot of heart-clearing medicine, and suddenly said: "Host, do you want to know about Ji Zhao? I can tell you."
Zhao Ruoming was stunned for a moment. She could actually sense that 203 didn't want to speak. Why did he want to speak now?
Although the question was not asked, 203 had already answered it: "Instead of letting Di Wanshu speak, let me speak. Host."
Even so, the cruel truth does not become more tender.
Zhao Ruoming did not answer, which meant he tacitly agreed.
"Ji Zhao was a great tasker in the Wanxiang Universe 203 years ago." said quickly, "She was the first Earthling to make achievements in the Wanxiang Universe. Since her, Earth has become famous in the universe."
203 introduced Ji Zhao's achievements in a short sentence, and continued: "Ji Zhao completed tasks on more than worlds, big and small, and accumulated a generous amount of points. She originally planned to retire and buy a small planet to live alone. However, at this time, she accidentally learned that a tasker who completed half of her tasks and whose task level was several times lower than hers actually had more than three times her points!"
"That tasker is inferior to Ji Zhao in every way, except for one 'strength': he is a tasker from a higher civilization."
"Ji Zhao was very dissatisfied and went to question the manager of the Book Department at that time. Because her rank was too low, she was not qualified to meet the manager in person, so she could only pass a note through the system to ask. The director of the Book Department at that time, that is -" 203 paused, "is the one in front of us. It took him three years to reply to Ji Zhao. His reply was..."
Although he could not hear the conversation between 203 and Zhao Ruoming in his sea of consciousness, Di Wanshu seemed to have guessed the content of the conversation and said with a smile: "I said, bugs should look like bugs, Ji Zhaodi."
Zhao Ruoming's pupils shrank slightly.
203 said calmly, "Earth mission personnel cannot communicate in the universe, and meeting each other depends entirely on luck. Ji Zhao has never met anyone of her own race. She always thought that the obstacles she encountered during the mission were because the mission was difficult. But she didn't expect that it was just because... because she was from Earth."
"Since then, Ji Zhao has stopped taking missions, and he hasn't bought any planets to retire on. Instead, he has been searching the universe for traces of his compatriots and trying to find out what happened to them. Half of them died, and the other half survived and are still taking missions."
Zhao Ruoming's eyelashes trembled.
"Ji Zhao can't stand this." The voice in Zhao Ruoming's mind suddenly changed. It was no longer the clear and pleasant voice of 203, but a hoarse and noisy voice. "She has suffered injustice since she was a child, so she can't stand injustice."
Zhao Ruoming was silent for a moment: "How did you get in?"
The person who came was 62, the system in Ji Zhao’s brain.
