Chu Fa Da locked himself in the hotel for two days, successfully causing the power to go out three tis, achieving a small feat.
And each of these three outages was rely an instant, not even affecting the electricity ter, so this matter was directly attributed to one—oh no, three unremarkable trippings.
The engineering departnt had to turn back midway all three tis as power resud, leaving them cursing back to their workspace.
Chu River didn’t pay any mind to these occurrences.
After all, has anyone ever paid for electricity?
In the Star Sea Federation era, it all fell under public energy.
As soone who often pilfered energy from the infrastructure engineering team, Chu Fa Da didn’t even care about such trivial matters.
...
She looked at the pile of parts on the bed, at the misshapen laptop that was left, and the equally misshapen phone in her hand, nodding with satisfaction.
However, when tallying up the expenses—two laptops, eight phones, plus the luxury suite—it had already eaten up 97,138 yuan of her 3,500,219 yuan savings.
This money disappears too easily!
Chu River looked at the two bottles of Maotai beside her—shouldn’t be anything rare, so probably can’t sell for more than two thousand yuan...
With just this little money, it won’t last at all.
Might as well drink it!
She had never drunk pure grain liquor before!
So she straightforwardly unscrewed the cap.
——
A hot sensation shot straight from her throat to her stomach, then rose to her head.
With just two gulps down, without accelerating tabolism with spiritual power, her vision was already foggy.
After all, her body, although modified by spiritual power, still belonged to the human realm.
And she, in both past and present lives, was encountering this thing for the first ti.
...
In her drunken haze, she seed to return to the Third Guard Satellite.
In that empty guard base, she was fully geared up, about to step into the battlefield.
Chu River snapped her fingers—as a planet defender, she of course (zhi yi) should have a cool audio command to summon an artificial assistant.
Yet at this mont, she sat on her knees on the bed, snapping her fingers all day long, but no voice responded to her.
Chu River: ... Aggrieved.
●^●
And the next second, a man in a white... white sothing?
Couldn’t see clearly.
The man in white clothing drove a wheelchair slowly forward and finally stopped beside her.
Chu River saw herself smiling—
"What? Worried? I knew you couldn’t bear to part with . After all, I’m the only one in the whole universe who listens to you like this!"
Her brows danced with pride.
However, the man in the wheelchair sighed:
"Little He, I regret it. Had I known the Third Guard Satellite would face the Insect Race battlefield directly..."
He didn’t continue.
But Chu River raised an eyebrow, unconcerned:
"What’s with all the ’had I known’s? If I had known, I wouldn’t even have beco a Defender back then!"
"You’re just overthinking it; generals like are rare across the Federation—hey, speaking of which, when I co back, I’m bound to have military rits, so destroy those black histories of mine you kept hidden!"
"I’m a general now; if they get leaked, the propaganda departnt will have my neck!"
Her tone was light, as if rely chatting on an ordinary day.
Yet, when taking bold steps out the door, she suddenly stopped.
"Chang Geng, dedicating my life to the motherland, I ask for nothing more, no regrets."
"But if there is a next life, please don’t be so strict with —I also want to experience being carefree."
"Besides," she put on the hat in her hand—
"If I sacrifice myself for the nation, then my 3S spiritual carrier will remain with you as part of the remains."
"Chang Geng, no one in this world is more important than you, except for the motherland."
...
"Boohoohoo..."
Chu River knelt on the hotel bed, pounding the mattress, accompanied by several springs inside the mattress snapping like dominoes; her emotions were a bit collapsing:
"Idiot!"
"Bastard!"
"I’m about to go to battle, what if I return as a hero, they’ll make an autobiography for , and there must be so highlights! Can’t you let say a few official phrases upfront?"
"I didn’t expect the remains wouldn’t even remain in the end!"
"Chang Geng, I’m sorry... I shouldn’t have shown off—"
"If I had known, I’d have coaxed you a bit more... But it’s okay!"
She suddenly sat cross-legged upright, her cheeks tinged with a drunken blush.
"I’ve already thought of a way!"
"In another thousand years, it will be our era!"
"I want my na in history, and a thousand years from now, your holographic lessons must highlight my key events and life story!"
"But it’s so damn bad, though..."
She whined and complained again:
"Here, they can’t even manage controlled nuclear fusion, I want to wield a forbidden weapon proton sword, can’t find enough energy..."
"No one even watches my vacuum football gas because there’s no electromagnetic suspension space field!!!"
"Mountain and Sea Star is beautiful, but it’s really so backward, so backward!"
"I even have to take an English exam, boohoohoo..."
Chu River extended a finger:
"Chang Geng, if only you could see here, it would be great."
After saying this, she finally relaxed completely.
...
And once she lay on the bed, the spiritual power in her body naturally washed over her, and in no ti, she fell into a sleepy slumber.
And in the dream, Chang Geng was watching her, his expression as usual tolerant, with a hint of restraint:
"Fool."
"Convey your spiritual power."
"Expand your magnetic field."
"Locate your data stream."
"Leave your mark on this ti and space."
"Little He, I’ll be there soon."
...
As everyone knows.
Dreams are not controlled by people’s spirits.
No matter how strong your spiritual power, there are so dreams that naturally slip away in three minutes of staring blankly after waking up.
Chu River was like this.
Of course, deeply mobilizing spiritual power for potential stimulation, it’s not impossible to look back—
But the problem is, it’s vacation ti!
What’s the point in chasing dreams?
Let loose!
Chu River rolled over and got up.
—— This hotel isn’t suitable for living in anymore either.
Sohow, the mattress suddenly felt uncomfortable.
┐(´-`)┌
The first thing upon leaving the hotel was to contact her cheap little underling.
Yes, the one picked up in the Internet café.
Chu River rembered his number, dialed straight away, yet the little underling was very inconsiderate, answering only on the third try, which left the boss quite dissatisfied.
She looked at the phone with its completely disfigured fake look, thinking—displaying the person’s face was within fifteen centiters of the phone, so why didn’t this guy pick up?!
Chu River gradually grew angry.
Fortunately, the little underling called back quickly:
"Hello, who’s this? I’m in a dungeon—Sis?!!!
Younger guys, often easily forgiven.
The little guy took the call and yelped gibberish, Chu River calmly instructed:
"Co out for a bit, let’s go check out a house."
Tianshui City is just this small place, a twenty-minute drive, the little guy found the boss in the buffet restaurant at the hotel entrance.
He looked at Chu River enviously:
"Sis, no wonder you’re so good at studies... Your family supports you so much, even gives you money to rent a place on your own!"
"I have to co up with a lot of reasons for money!"
Chu River thought of the two bottles of rather ineffective Maotai she downed last night—
Consider it getting money sohow.
So she nodded too:
"Indeed, not too bad."
The drink felt quite nice—
Don’t know why, just felt happy.
