From BOSS to Canon Fodder: She is Currently Out of Service!
Chapter 225 - 112: Gu Er, You’ve Figured It Out
"According to the content of the cooperation contract, I hope you can tell me the accurate list of personnel for executing the mission within half a month, including the person we can trust," Su Jiameng said. "Naturally, I’ll fulfill my promise to resolve those troublesome matters after that. As for the task of finding the nine people, I hope you’ll put some effort into it and investigate quickly..."
Upon hearing Su Jiameng’s long spiel, the distressed Young Master Gu Er finally realized what was amiss.
Damn it, he obviously asked Su Jiameng to do things, so why did he end up as the unlucky one running around?
Even after leaving the hospital room, Gu Ningzhi couldn’t quite accept it. While feeling resentful, he suddenly came to his senses! He abruptly turned around to look at that hospital room, clenching his teeth tightly! How could a quiet and perfect handsome man like him be outsmarted by a girl?
"Hey, you scoundrel, it’s time to go!" Just as Gu Ningzhi was feeling deflated with anger, someone patted him on the shoulder, followed by a familiar female voice, "I told you to wait outside, how did you end up here? Aren’t you afraid of running around blindly and getting recognized..."
Gu Ningzhi raised his hand and flicked his shoulder, dusting off nonexistent debris, and said lazily, "I’m certainly not worried about being recognized. On the contrary, a guy like you, with so much trouble trailing behind you, dares to come to a place like the hospital? Are you sincerely looking to get caught?"
In the future interstellar, medicine is a field highly valued by the Alliance. Any hospital that reaches a certain level has defense measures and lockdown protocols that other public places can’t match. Some places even have Alliance Warriors patrolling.
As a notorious star thief, Luo Xin doesn’t obediently hide in the shadows. Instead, she comes out in broad daylight, claiming to meet a good friend, which is basically courting death! She’s practically one step away from pasting a sign on her forehead that reads, "I’m the famous star thief who’s currently wanted, come and catch me, you fools" ... It’s just sheer stupidity.
Luo Xin crossed her arms indifferently, her words defiant, "If I were to be caught so easily, that would be a joke."
Gu Ningzhi shook his head helplessly. Knowing Luo Xin for so many years, he was well aware of her stubborn personality. Perhaps the day she kicks a hard board and suffers, she’ll restrain herself a bit, "Then I’ll wait for the day you’re caught. Don’t come crying to me for a prison break then."
To reduce their visibility, Gu Ningzhi and Luo Xin reluctantly parted ways at the hospital entrance, agreeing on the time and place to meet.
Back at his temporary residence, Gu Ningzhi was about to lie down and clear his mind from the turmoil when he suddenly realized he still had a super-miniature chip between his fingertips. He had previously used it to copy the gene sequence of the two little dumplings, intending to privately assess how excellent this pair of "nephews" genes were, whether they’d inherited the Gu Family’s fine tradition.
However, subsequent events made him realize he had overthought it. The two kids weren’t his little brother Gu Ningxuan’s after all! If the kids were Gu Ningxuan’s, that girl with the super slick tongue wouldn’t have reacted like that... 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞
But now it seemed, these two gene sequences weren’t entirely useless. He remembered the girl once saying the two babies had also inherited her Mind Talent... Thinking about that formidable and mysterious power, Gu Ningzhi’s expression froze slightly.
Having lived for so many years, he only felt such powerful pressure from his father, grandfather, and even his great-grandfather, a heaviness akin to the weight of a mountain, making it hard to breathe. Is that Mind Talent truly so extraordinary?
With his gaze changing slightly, Gu Ningzhi inserted the super-miniature chip into his intellect-brain, pulling up the gene sequence diagrams... He was determined to see how strong the "telekinesis" inherited by these two kids was and what the root of that telekinesis was...
The two little dumplings were identical twins, with gene sequences nearly identical, lacking any control group, naturally revealing no insights.
Gu Ningzhi straightforwardly used his own gene sequence as a control group, intending to see what the difference was between a normal person and a "Simoles Deficiency Syndrome" patient. However, although Gu Ningzhi didn’t find the answer he was looking for, he discovered another reality that shocked him... Why were these two kids’ gene sequences so similar to his?
Of course, Gu Ningzhi didn’t foolishly assume the kids were his own. If we trace back a year or two, he was still in another stellar system, unable to be involved with Su Jiameng. And besides, the gene sequence match was still a gap away from the "father" standards.
