Traveling through Thailand

After hanging up the phone, Sky hurried to the ICU. After going through the familiar routine, he shook Xiao Yi's hand and reported, "Yi, Auntie's going to make soup again today, even though we just got assassinated. How about I eat lunch here in the cafeteria? That way, I don't have to go back and be a guinea pig."

"Yi, why is it that the food you cook is so delicious, but the food your aunt cooks is so hard to swallow?"

"Is it always your uncle who cooks in your family?"

 …

In another dimension, looking at Sky who came to talk to his shell for half an hour every day, Xiao Yi replied amidst his repeated inquiries: "Then don't go back to drink, just eat in the cafeteria. Well, if you don't want to be a guinea pig, I wouldn't even want you to be one."

"I don't know why, but she is indeed the mother of this world."

"We mostly eat out at home. When I'm home, they buy a bunch of food for me to cook, and they put the leftovers in the refrigerator to eat later. For example, when we want to eat curry rice, we just take it out and thaw it, then cook a pot of rice and we're ready to go. There's also sauerkraut and minced meat sauce, which tastes great when mixed with rice or noodles. Of course, cooking rice and noodles is all done by my dad himself."

 …

Xiao Yi sat there, mumbling his responses to Sky's questions on the screen. Xiao Ladder didn't bother him, but logged into the system message circle in the background to see if there was anyone kind enough to answer his questions. After he finished, there were still no replies. When he saw someone actually replied, he suppressed his excitement and clicked on it: "The host is in a time and space where the soul has returned, but the shell has not. In this case, there are two solutions: 1. Send the host back. 2. Find the soul of an unlucky person and stuff it in, letting him live with this shell or find an opportunity to kill him."

Seeing the second method, Little Ladder considered its feasibility. But as he read further, he felt it wasn't a good idea. They'd capture an innocent soul and shove him in there, not only denying him privileges, but also orchestrating his untimely death.

This method was too ruthless, and he couldn't accept it. If that was the case, he might as well choose the first option and send the host there. Let him choose to die or continue to survive in that world.

Of these two options, he hoped the host could survive in that world. For no other reason than that he'd noticed the host's extraordinary attention to Sky. He'd been paying the most attention to Sky every day. He suspected the host had finally found someone who made his heart flutter. No wonder, after returning this time, he'd noticed the host's aura had softened.

He didn't want to miss such a great opportunity. But the only obstacle was that he didn't have enough energy to send him back! Each trip cost him energy coins! Ever since he'd bound to this host, his world had never spent more than 100 energy coins. Such a high cost was simply beyond the reach of his humble system.

At this moment, Little Ladder's heart was a vast ocean of tears.

When Xiao Yi knew that it would cost energy coins to send himself back, he asked about these energy coins. Besides obtaining them after traveling from one world to another, was there any other way to do it?

Xiaoti spent a long time browsing the system manual, which was understandable. After all, a manual as thick as a dictionary, with no table of contents, was quite troublesome to find just one question.

As for why they didn't just search the backend? Little Ladder cried, "There are no energy coins!!!" Woohoo! He's the poorest of all the systems.

When he found out how to earn more energy coins, he excitedly flew to Xiao Yi to write it down for him, but Xiao Yi didn't look happy at all. The reason was simple: his shell in that world was dead.

Yes, that's right, dead.

Of course, it was not a natural death, but someone injected air into him.

So when the news of his death reached Sky, it was like a bolt from the blue. Everything was clearly going in the right direction, and he began to imagine the scene when Xiao Yi woke up. But today, just as he was about to go out as usual, ready to talk to him about his mother ruining another pot of bone soup yesterday,

Sky grabbed the wrist of the person who came. The person endured the pain on his wrist and replied with a painful expression: "It's true, the murderer has been caught, and the madam is interrogating him in person." The person who came to deliver the message always thought that this young man was just their young master's mistress, but he didn't expect that this gentle person would have such a fierce look.

"Who is the murderer?"

Although the messenger was afraid, he still stammered out the man's name.

When he heard the name, Sky increased the strength of his hands in disbelief and shouted: "Say it again, who is it?!!"

"Yes, it's Lin, Special Assistant Lin. The camera captured everything. Ah! It hurts, it hurts."

Sky acted as if he couldn't hear the man's cries. When he was about to break his wrist bones, he let go of his hand and ran quickly towards the ward where Xiao Yi was.

The people gathered there saw someone running towards them at high speed and made way for him. They all knew who was coming.

He ran to the door and could see the situation inside clearly through the window without going in. All the medical equipment had been removed, and only Xiao Yi was lying there alone on the bed. Sky resisted the urge to rush in and wake him up, gritted his teeth, and walked towards Special Assistant Lin step by step.

"Why?" Xiao's mother sat in the upper seat with a cold face, staring at the person kneeling on the ground with a piercing gaze.

"Madam, it's not me." Special Assistant Lin knelt down with a straight back and expressed his grievances.

"Then how do you explain this? If the person in the video wasn't you, then who else could it be?" Xiao's mother slammed her palm on the table and said sternly, "Why did you do this? Our family has been very kind to you. Why would you do this? Is everything you usually act like a lie?"

"Ma'am, it really wasn't me who did this."

"Then why don't you explain why the people here have the same face as you?"

Special Assistant Lin looked at the computer placed before him. The face recorded in the video was exactly his. He opened and closed his mouth, then said only this: "I know it's useless to say anything now, but what I said is true. I really didn't kill the young master. I don't know why this man looks like me, but I'm sure I wasn't here at that time."

Sky had overheard their conversation when he arrived. But having just seen Xiao Yi lying there cold, he knew he should go see him now, but he still wanted to know the details of what had happened. So he endured the pain in his heart, clenching his fists, his clenched gums showing no sign of loosening. He was afraid that if he relaxed, his body would tremble uncontrollably.

He resisted the urge to walk over to them. Mother Xiao saw that he didn't say anything, but her red eyes and tightly pursed lips showed that her patience had reached its limit.

He picked up the notebook in front of him and clicked on the video playback. He watched as a man who looked exactly like Lint's assistant appeared, took an empty needle, and injected air into his arm. Afterward, he leisurely left the scene. The entire movement was smooth and fluid, without a trace of hesitation or tension. It was as if he knew no one would show up at this time.
