Chapter 3279: Help Me Write a Report and Submit It
Ning Shu leaned on her hand, bored, and said to 2333, “Help me write a report and submit it.”
2333 said, “That’ll waste a privilege ticket. If you run into something you can’t handle later, you won’t be able to report it.”
Ning Shu said, “I just have a bad feeling. Let’s report it. If I run out of tickets, I’ll ask Mei Ziqing for some.”
“What if she doesn’t have any?” 2333 asked.
“Then she’ll owe me. She’ll have to repay it eventually.” Ning Shu propped her chin, watching Crossbow Lar and Dagger Mu on the street through the window.
The two were buying trinkets from a street stall.
“What if she never pays you back, and you run into something you really can’t handle?” 2333 asked again.
Ning Shu thought for a moment and said, “You seem to not want me to help Mei Ziqing?”
“Because there’s no room to help at all,” 2333 replied bluntly. “The friendship of gentlemen is as insipid as water.”
Ning Shu gave an “Oh.” “Still, report it. Let’s deal with what’s in front of us first.”
“Two reports should draw some attention,” Ning Shu said.
2333 said carelessly, “Then how should I write the report?”
Ning Shu’s eyes turned. “Just say someone is trying to swap out the heavens.”
2333: “Kay.”
After a while, 2333 submitted the report and said to Ning Shu, “One privilege ticket is gone.”
“If it’s gone, it’s gone. More will come,” Ning Shu said nonchalantly.
Ning Shu sipped tea, cracked sunflower seeds, looked out the window, and kept circulating her Unsurpassable Martial Arts technique.
Multitasking? So easy!
To be honest, Ning Shu was a little afraid to keep practicing the Unsurpassable Martial Arts—it felt like her body was turning into a black hole, as her dantian grew deeper and deeper.
Her dantain seemed like a vast universe. She was worried she’d eventually cultivate herself into nothingness.
It was a little scary.
Ning Shu felt uneasy inside.
She had to fumble through everything on her own.
Ning Shu said to 2333, “Ask Mei Ziqing’s system how she’s doing now.”
2333 said, “Can you stop asking so often? This kind of communication drains system power.”
“And even if we ask, the other system might not answer. Just save it,” 2333 said. “You asked two hours ago.”
“I’ve already taken so many eye-rolls from that system for you,” 2333 said in a very aggrieved tone.
Ning Shu’s mouth twitched. “Sounds like you weren’t very polite either. Maybe the system just doesn’t like you. Could it be that your emotional intelligence is low?”
Everyone likes hearing nice words. If you’re rude from the start, of course they’ll get mad.
“Be more mindful. I’ll be interacting with more task-takers in the future. With the way you are, I’m in for a tough time,” Ning Shu said helplessly.
If this were a modern world, she could just make a call and know how someone was doing. But in a world without advanced communication, she could only rely on the system to communicate.
And with 2333 acting like this, Ning Shu felt kind of set back.
“Do you not want to be my system? Is that why you treat my affairs so casually?” Ning Shu rested her chin on her hand, gazing out the window.
2333 immediately said, “I’ve never had such a thought. We’re bound together. Hurting your interests is hurting mine. I’m not that stupid.”
Ning Shu: “Oh!”
The next day, Ning Shu asked 2333 again, “Any news from over there?”
“The other side’s system hasn’t sent any messages,” 2333 said.
Ning Shu furrowed her brows. Not a single message. Could those two have eloped?
Or maybe they were just off being lovey-dovey.
Burn the couple! o(▼皿▼メ;)o,
The waiter brought up breakfast and said to Ning Shu, “Guest, please extend your stay.”
