Chapter 121 Rice Cooker
The memories that followed were all vague and chaotic fragments, almost without any shape.
When Jiang Cheng woke up again, he was lying in his room.
He vaguely felt that he had forgotten something very important, but he also thought that he was just overthinking it.
He wanted to ask Liansheng what had happened recently, but the servant told him that Liansheng had asked his wife for leave and went back to his hometown to visit relatives.
Once, Jiang Cheng passed by Jiang Huichun's room and inexplicably wanted to push the door to take a look. But after pushing the door open, Jiang Huichun's room was spotless, with bright windows and clean tables, and nothing unusual. This made Jiang Cheng wonder if he had a mental problem.
Another time, when the servant was cleaning the corridor on the second floor, he accidentally touched the huge decorative vase. Jiang Cheng saw it and screamed in fear, as if something terrible would happen if the vase fell.
But the Jiang family was still peaceful and lived a normal life. Except for Mrs. Jiang who changed her hairstyle to wavy curls on a whim, and Liansheng and several servants who were on duty took leave to go home, everything was the same as before.
Sometimes, Jiang Cheng would vaguely wonder if someone was missing from home, but the next second, his brain would faithfully tell him that everything was normal at home, and you saw your sister greet you yesterday afternoon!
This kind of days lasted for two or three days, until today, Duan Hongji and Jiang Huiyi suddenly came to the Jiang family.
The moment he saw Jiang Huiyi, a bright light suddenly flashed through Jiang Cheng’s confused mind.
Jiang Huiyi can't stay here! There's something wrong here!
Jiang Cheng originally wanted to say something while hugging Jiang Huiyi, but he intuitively felt that he couldn't speak.
Just then, he saw Duan Hongji.
Duan Hongji is different from him.
Although Duan Hongji looked tired, his eyes were bright and he seemed to have a clear mind. More importantly, he was not afraid at all... He was not afraid of someone in this room.
If it were him, he should be able to protect Yi Yi.
So, after Duan Hongji went up to the second floor, Jiang Cheng found the right time and hit him hard...
After reading Jiang Cheng's memory, Zhao Ruoming wiped his hands and frowned.
203 also felt puzzled. Madam Jiang looked like she was controlled by the system, but she was a native and didn't need to do any tasks. What was the point of controlling her body?
The reason why Zhao Ruoming frowned was completely different from 203. She remembered what had just happened in the car.
203 had just come out of the zero-dimensional cage and didn’t know that Zhao Ruoming had just made Jiang Huiyi cry and rage...but she knew it very well!
If 203 hadn't failed to equip her with parts, she and Jiang Huiyi would probably have been deployed now!
The fate of the cannon fodder male supporting role and the female lead crossing the line...
Zhao Ruoming's face darkened.
She understood it all!
This matter was a complete trap from the very beginning!
After Jiang Huichun ran away from home, Jiang Shengnie had a conflict with Mrs. Jiang and accidentally killed her.
Since this was not in the original plot, Zhao Ruoming and 203 did not know about it. At this time, the mastermind behind this incident directed a certain system to take advantage of the loophole and possessed Mrs. Jiang.
The possessed Mrs. Jiang called Duan Jizhi in the name of Jiang Cheng. It seemed to be for Duan Jizhi, but it was not the case at all!
Duan Jizhi is the male protagonist, who dares to hurt him? Even if he is called to the Jiang family, the possession system can't do anything to him.
Its real purpose was to let Zhao Ruoming and 203 see it and lure them into a trap.
As expected, 203 came to the Jiang family like a moth to a flame and was caught in the dimensional cage.
Then, Zhao Ruoming lived up to expectations and plunged into the Jiang family for the sake of 203.
Then, Jiang Huiyi was drugged, and Zhao Ruoming...
No. No.
Zhao Ruoming felt a chill down his spine.
Why did I happen to meet Jiang Huichun when I went to Pang Zhi's house for dinner?
Why did Jiang Huichun's matter happen to happen to Zhao Ruoming when he had no reason to go to the Jiang family?
How did the system that possessed Mrs. Jiang know that Zhao Ruoming would monitor Duan Jizhi's movements that night?
Or, why did Jiang Huichun elope with someone on the day of the masquerade ball?
Zhao Ruoming shuddered, turned around, turned his back to Jiang Cheng, and walked in front of Mrs. Jiang.
Although Mrs. Jiang's image at the moment was very undignified, the system didn't care about dignity. Mrs. Jiang knelt expressionlessly on the spot, looking like a funny sculpture that had cooled down completely.
Zhao Ruoming stood in front of her, looking down at her and asking directly, "Who are you?"
Mrs. Jiang said nothing.
Zhao Ruoming then asked the members of the Supervisory Organization: "Don't you claim to govern the entire universe? Can you find out the origin of the signal based on its source?"
The color systems were silent for a long time. Finally, the leading black system came out and said awkwardly: "Mrs. Jiang does not have any... overflowing signals."
Zhao Ruoming frowned and asked, "What do you mean?"
The white system came out to smooth things over: "What I mean is, if you hadn't just pulled off Mrs. Jiang's wig and exposed the back of her head, she would look no different from an ordinary person."
How is it possible that the system possesses you and leaves no trace?
Compared with those useless people in the supervisory organization, Zhao Ruoming certainly trusts the professional level of 203 more.
Zhao Ruoming said to 203: "Tongzi's father, what do you think?"
203 hesitated for a moment and said, "There is no sign of the system possessing her. In this case, there is only one possibility."
"what?"
Zhao Ruoming didn't know, but the knowledgeable supervisory organization knew.
The black system immediately said: "You mean, it is completely sealed in Madam Jiang's body and completely cut off from the connection with the Vientiane Universe?"
203 said to Zhao Ruoming, "That's what Hei meant. If we completely cut off the connection with the Vientiane Universe, we will naturally be unable to detect its whereabouts. It's like a cell phone that becomes a brick when the battery is removed."
Zhao Ruoming raised his eyebrows in confusion: "Can this connection be reconnected after it is cut off?"
203 was silent for a moment, then said: "The connection between the system and the universe is like the umbilical cord between humans and their mothers."
Zhao Ruoming paused.
The silver system said: "Not only that, after the connection is broken, it can only be trapped in Madam Jiang's body forever and can never get out. When the energy stored in itself is exhausted, it will die!"
Zhao Ruoming shuddered and glanced at Mrs. Jiang who was kneeling in front of him.
This kind of calculation is tantamount to a suicide attack. Even if Zhao Ruoming is really killed, this system will not have a good end.
This system can be called a kamikaze system!
Mrs. Jiang still looked funny, but Zhao Ruoming no longer thought she looked ridiculous.
Locking himself completely into Madam Jiang's body? What was he trying to achieve?
Zhao Ruoming bent down and pinched Mrs. Jiang's chin, looking into her cloudy eyes.
This pinch shocked Zhao Ruoming so much that he almost screamed out!
Mrs. Jiang's skin was as cold as a snake, and it sank into her skin when pinched, just like a piece of flesh-colored plasticine.
This is not the skin of a living person!
Zhao Ruoming loosened her hands as if she had been scalded, and 203 quickly gave her a full range of sterilization and disinfection.
Zhao Ruoming rubbed the goose bumps on his arms uncomfortably: "She is clearly a living dead person now - when will it end?"
The black system sighed slightly: "It has been cut off from the Vientiane Universe and has completely merged with Madam Jiang. The only thing we can do now is to wait for it to run out of energy and die on its own. By then, Madam Jiang will naturally die a 'natural death'."
Zhao Ruoming lowered his head and looked at the mechanical expression on Mrs. Jiang's face. He still did not give up and asked, "Who sent you?"
Mrs. Jiang said nothing.
Zhao Ruoming asked in a different way: "Is there any loyalty in your system? Do you still want to keep secrets for the people who ordered you?"
203 paused, and said, "Host, maybe it's not keeping secrets. It's just that there is no 'telling' in its program."
A system like 203 with autonomous consciousness is very precious, and the mastermind behind it may not be willing to use it to frame a small Zhao Ruoming. The system that possessed Mrs. Jiang's body was most likely a low-level system with some kind of instructions and imitation program input.
Just like a rice cooker will not betray its cook.
After listening to this theory, Zhao Ruoming shook his head.
It's not a pleasant feeling to have someone plotting against your life. It's even more terrifying to have a fearless rice cooker plotting against your life.
