Post-Apocalyptic Survival Modpack

Chapter 118, Section 117: I'm Not Sick (Reset)

"Even if you're in a rush, it shouldn't matter if I say a few words."

Wang Ji entered the house, and the door closed automatically.

Suddenly, the things behind me became imperceptible, and the view behind the door became undetectable.

Perhaps if you open the door again now, you won't be in the same spot as before.

I don't know if this is some kind of ability or a building structure function, it's very interesting.

"Please sit down, sir."

A chair was gently placed opposite the table; it had been brought by the young man.

The loser didn't react to his actions, which seemed to indicate that he tacitly approved of them.

Wang Ji nodded to the young man who looked only a few years older than himself, and then sat down in the chair.

This person appears to be in an assistant or similar position.

He has better judgment than his boss.

The young man brought over a rather antique-looking teacup and poured Wang Ji a cup of hot tea.

Wang Ji knew from the smell that it was a flavor he really liked.

He couldn't help but ask, "How did you know?"

"A little personal tip."

The young man blinked.

"Ok."

Wang Ji did not investigate further.

Having seen so much today, nothing seems surprising anymore.

The ability to discern a person's preferences is not surprising, nor did it offend Wang Ji.

On the contrary, this thoughtfulness in catering to his preferences made Wang Ji have a fairly good impression of the young man.

After doing all this, the young man stood obediently beside the young man opposite him, motionless and silent, minimizing his presence.

Seeing this, Wang Ji knew that the hospitality was over and it was time to get down to business.

A sip of hot tea brings a long-lost, refreshing fragrance.

It makes you feel very comfortable.

"This is not the place for a tea party. You have thirteen minutes and forty-five seconds left to talk to me."

The young man frowned and reminded him, "You need to know that I am in charge of everything in this world. Wasting my time is wasting the entire world's time."

You'd better hurry.

"Ok."

Wang Ji put down his teacup and said, "It won't take you too long; it's a very simple matter."

"Before that, I need to confirm one more time, are you the 'loser'?"

"Yes, that's me." The young man nodded.

Now Wang Ji had a better understanding of the situation.

Although it's obvious without asking, there are two people in the room, so to be on the safe side, we have to ask.

Even the smallest probability event still has a chance of happening, so we can't overlook any of them.

Wang Ji said, "What happens next must not be heard by anyone."

As he spoke, he glanced at the young man next to the loser.

However, the young people did not move.

The scene was quiet for two seconds.

The loser also stared at Wang Ji for two seconds.

He waved, signaling the young man to leave.

The young man maintained his polite smile.

He slowly walked towards the gate, and when he passed Wang Ji, he suddenly stopped, took out a card from somewhere, and handed it to Wang Ji.

"This is my business card. You can contact me anytime and ask me to do anything."

"Don't hesitate to speak up."

The young man bowed slightly and withdrew.

Click.

The door is closed.

Wang Ji looked at the business card in his hand.

The Book of Wisdom's authentication function is automatically triggered, providing an explanation. 'A simple card, recording the card maker's contact information, has applications in many worlds that value form.'

After a quick glance, Wang Ji tossed the card into his backpack.

However, the moment the card entered the backpack, the description on it suddenly became blurry, and the entire card, from the item ID to the annotations, turned into a string of question marks.

Wang Ji's attention was immediately drawn, and he was surprised.

what's the situation?
"Can we talk now?"

The loser's slightly impatient voice came through.

Seeing that only the ID and annotation on the business card had changed and nothing else had happened, Wang Ji temporarily turned his attention back to the main topic.

After confirming once again that there was no one else in the room, Wang Ji finally spoke:

"Someone asked me to remind you that it's time to take your medicine."

"Take medicine?"

A hint of doubt crept into the loser's furrowed brow.

"What medicine?"

Hearing the loser ask this question, Wang Ji was caught off guard.

You promised he'd understand if I just mentioned it.
Wang Ji said again, "It's about 'taking medicine,' think about it carefully."

The loser, somewhat bewildered, asked, "What kind of 'medicine' in this world could work for me?"

I don't know, the keeper told me to tell you.

Wang Ji was also puzzled and said, "Don't ask me, I don't know, you should ask yourself."

The loser fell silent, seemingly deep in thought.

He asked, "Who sent you to deliver this message to me? Perhaps I can go and ask him directly."

Wang Ji said honestly, "That man told me it was best not to mention him."

"Tsk, this style is somewhat familiar."

The loser seemed to have thought of something, but he didn't say it.

Wang Ji also remained silent, unwilling to say anything more.

"But what illness could I possibly have?"

The loser was genuinely confused. He looked at Wang Ji, who casually remarked, "Many sick people are unaware of their illness and cannot heal themselves."

At this point, Wang Ji paused for a moment and took out a protective amulet.

He handed the amulet to the loser.

"Here, this is for you. Maybe it will help you remember something."

The loser took it and glanced at it, immediately understanding its purpose.

The protective amulet is already included in the Book of Wisdom and is easy to recognize.

"It's a nice item, I'll take it."

The loser put away the amulet, his brow relaxing slightly.

He said, "Any help from the outside world is invaluable to me, but something of a generative nature is especially precious."

"Thank you for your actions."

Hearing this, Wang Ji had a feeling that the loser would get a notification like 'Affection +1' pop up above their head at any moment.

But don't worry about whether it increases favorability or not.

The amulet didn't seem to work; it didn't react.

Maybe there really isn't a problem?
Wang Ji thought to himself.

It's important to know that this amulet has a very wide range of protection; it can even protect against the ethereal distortion of consciousness.

Wang Ji said, "Think about it again yourself. Is there anything that needs to be corrected, or any problem?"

The loser carefully examined Wang Ji and said, "I will seriously consider your words."

As he spoke, he immediately accessed the database and began searching for recent transactions to review them again.

I also started self-monitoring and testing.

Believe it or not, the phrase "seriously consider" wasn't just something he casually said to appease Wang Ji; he really meant it after he said it.

Ten minutes passed quickly amidst the inspection and occasional discussions.

Wang Ji walked out of the room, and the door closed automatically.

This meeting has now come to an end.

Even at the very end, the loser didn't show any signs of being clear-headed.
