Ruan Mianmian: ? ? ?

Has Dongfeng Express been locked down in just one night?

She couldn't help but ask the chubby baby in her mind, "Baby, what would happen to our shopping mall if it were hit by Dongfeng Express?"

“It’s pointless to fight.” The chubby baby explained in his baby voice, “The shopping mall is a replica of the traded goods, protected by the system, and invincible in the current technological civilization.”

Invincible state?!

epic!

Ruan Mianmian was extremely tempted and asked, "Baby, can you sell me one of your invincible states?"

"..." The chubby baby was speechless, but still explained, "It's not that I'm unwilling to sell, but that I don't have it here. This thing is bound to the system; it was designed long ago."

Ruan Mianmian felt a pang of regret, but she knew she couldn't force it, so she put her mind at ease and went up to greet Political Commissar Wang and the others.

Upon seeing Ruan Mianmian, Political Commissar Wang immediately smiled and said, "Comrade Ruan, you're awake! Are you hungry? Please go back and sit down. We'll have someone bring breakfast over as soon as possible." He then looked at Comrade Zhao.

Comrade Zhao smiled and said, "I had already arranged for breakfast to be delivered, but I didn't expect Comrade Ruan to wake up so early."

Ruan Mianmian felt unwell, so she went back to sit and wait. After a while, Yu Qingqing arrived, and then breakfast was delivered.

Ruan Mianmian and Yu Qingqing ate breakfast together.

After they had eaten almost all, Yu Qingqing said mysteriously, "I don't know what happened, but the security here is extremely tight, and there are many patrol teams. Before one patrol team even left, another one came. We were supposed to be taken away, but suddenly we weren't."

After speaking, he lowered his voice and said, "Do you think there's a spy involved, which is why they only allow entry but not exit, and are conducting extensive patrols and searches?"

"I have to admire your imagination." Ruan Mianmian gave a thumbs up.

Yu Qingqing laughed smugly, "Then why don't you look at who I am? I was a top student in elementary school back then, and you were just my equal."

Look at that smug little thing!

Ruan Mianmian slowly ate the last bite of her breakfast: "I know."

"You know?" Yu Qingqing looked surprised, leaning closer instinctively and asking in a low voice, "You know which one is the spy? How do you know? Tell me quickly!"

“It’s not a spy.” Ruan Mianmian didn’t intend to hide it from Yu Qingqing, because if Yu Qingqing knew, she would be protected, and then she wouldn’t be afraid of the Zhou family and the Su family. She wiped her mouth with a tissue as she said, “Outside the camp, a building suddenly appeared. It’s about six stories high and covers a large area, about the size of a large shopping district.”

"A building suddenly appears? Really? That's too exaggerated, too fantastical!" Yu Qingqing asked skeptically. "And how do you know so much about it?"

Ruan Mianmian said in a low voice, "That building currently belongs to me."

Yu Qingqing: ? ? ?

Then, she looked at Ruan Mianmian with a nervous expression: "Recite 'Preface to the Pavilion of Prince Teng'."

My friend went crazy again in just one day?

Ruan Mianmian shook her head: "I'm not stupid, I'm telling the truth."

Yu Qingqing was about to ask more questions when she suddenly heard a knock on the door.

Ruan Mianmian called out loudly, "Come in—"

Comrade Zhao strode in: "Comrade Ruan, how much longer until you finish breakfast? The big leader is here and wants to see you."

Big leader?

Yu Qingqing's big eyes almost popped out.

After finishing her meal, Ruan Mianmian stood up and said, "Now is fine."

Comrade Zhao hurriedly said, "In that case, you should quickly tidy up your appearance, the big leader will be here soon."

"The big boss is coming? Shouldn't I be going over there?" Ruan Mianmian asked in surprise.

Comrade Zhao smiled and said, "The big leader knows you're injured and specifically instructed you not to move around. He'll be coming over."

"Thank you so much, boss," Ruan Mianmian said immediately.

Comrade Zhao looked at Yu Qingqing, who was standing to the side with her mouth agape in shock: "Comrade Yu, please come with me first—"

Yu Qingqing snapped out of her daze, nodded hurriedly, and while following Comrade Zhao out, turned back to look at Ruan Mianmian, mouthing, "Really?"

Ruan Mianmian nodded.

Absolutely true.

Yu Qingqing looked like she was in a daze as Comrade Zhao took her away.

The high-ranking leader and his entourage arrived soon after.

He first greeted Ruan Mianmian warmly, asking how she was feeling and if her head was still hurting. He was as kind as an old neighbor. After Ruan Mianmian answered, he said gently, "There's no good treatment for concussions. Just bear with it for now, and it will get better in a while."

Ruan Mianmian nodded quickly: "Okay, thank you for your concern, leader."

The top leader sat in the chair that Comrade Zhao had specially added.

After he sat down, the others who had come with him also sat down.

Soon, a man who looked to be around forty years old spoke up: "Ms. Ruan, my surname is Wen, and my name is Wen Liangyu. Would it be convenient for you to talk to us now?" Seeing Ruan Mianmian nod, he immediately asked impatiently, "We want to know, what exactly is this 'crisis of civilization destruction' that the system mentioned last night?"

Political Commissar Wang and Division Commander Xu also looked intently at Ruan Mianmian.

They wanted to ask last night, but Ruan Mianmian closed her eyes, looking exhausted, so they didn't want to bother her.

Later, I got so engrossed in the video that I forgot about it.

Ruan Mianmian recounted her conversation with the chubby baby that day.

Advanced civilization warfare, poverty alleviation...

After hearing this, everyone's expressions weren't too bad.

Ruan Mianmian sized up the people behind the big leader and thought to herself that this was probably the legendary think tank. They were all top-notch smart people with amazing intelligence, experience and knowledge reserves. They probably had already deduced several close possibilities from that one sentence from the system, so they were not surprised when they heard her retelling.

The staff member sitting at the back quickly took notes of the conversation between the two.

Wen Liangyu then asked, "Is the plane of travel controllable?"

"Uncontrollable, random."

Ruan Mianmian glanced at everyone's expressions, which remained calm, and couldn't help but ask, "The leaders don't seem disappointed at all. Did you guess it?"

Hearing her ask this, everyone smiled. Wen Liangyu laughed and said, "More or less. It's not hard to guess. Advanced civilizations are already being very kind by providing systems; how could they possibly do it all at once? That would violate the characteristics of civilizations."

After laughing, he asked again, "As the host of the system, is your security protected by the system?"

Ruan Mianmian shook her head: "Unprotected."

Upon hearing this answer, everyone's expressions turned sour.

Wen Liangyu asked, "Never protect them? Including inside shopping malls?"

Upon hearing this, Ruan Mianmian realized something was amiss. Forgetting to answer Wen Liangyu, she immediately asked her chubby baby in her mind, "Baby, this isn't right. Everyone in the mall has an invincible state, why don't I? I'm the owner of the mall!"

The chubby baby explained, "The shopping mall was copied using our technology, so it has an invincible state. But you, the host, are an Earthling, not a copy of us, so you don't have an invincible state."

The explanation was quite reasonable, but Ruan Mianmian felt uncomfortable after hearing it: "Sigh, I really am just an insignificant ant."

Hearing this sad voice, Fatty Baby felt uncomfortable and quickly said, "Mianmian, you're not an ant. I also think it's unreasonable. I've already submitted your application, and we should get a reply soon."
