Salted Fish is a Rebellious Person – Chapter 29

A dinner party first turned into a live broadcast of exposure, and then turned into a murder scene in seconds.

The innocent and kind-hearted college students had never seen such a scene before. When they saw Lin Kecheng pinching Fu Xiuning’s neck and pressing him down on the coffee table, they all screamed in fear.

Only Xingshi was the calmest. He stood up and rushed out immediately.

The people around were suddenly awakened and rushed over.

When Xingshi helped Fu Xiuning up, they also held down Lin Kecheng together.

Lin Kecheng’s eyes were dull, his face was pale, his whole body was limp, and he did not resist at all.

Several people looked at him secretly and guessed that he was either too shocked or realized that he had broken the law and started to get scared.

Fu Xiuning’s attention was all on him. Noticing that he suddenly trembled, he squeezed Xingshi’s wrist.

Xing Shi thought he had something to say, and just as he was about to turn his head, he keenly sensed a wave of energy. He suddenly looked at Lin Kecheng and instantly understood Fu Xiuning’s intention.

He rushed over without hesitation and squatted in front of Lin Kecheng, grabbing the other’s shoulders with both hands, and while scolding “How could you hurt senior”, he urgently switched to energy absorption state.

Fresh energy quickly poured into the body, and the system was shocked: “What…what happened?”

Xing played dumb: “You also noticed something was wrong? What’s going on with him? Was he punished?”

The system felt the endless energy pouring in and said, “I’m talking about you!”

Xing Shi was puzzled: “What’s wrong with me?”

The system asked: “Don’t you feel uncomfortable or have any problems?”

Xing Shi said: “No.”

The system saw that he spoke in a normal tone and answered questions fluently, so it did not suspect anything.

Humans cannot feel their energy, even if it is energy used for punishment, all they can feel is pain.

Normal energy like that used for searching for information or forming alliances is even less perceptible. Unless such a large amount of energy flows in, it may cause physical discomfort. However, Xingshi’s pain threshold is high, so it is normal not to feel anything.

“There’s energy coming in,” it explains.

Xing Shi said: “Really? I didn’t realize it.”

As soon as he finished speaking, the last bit of energy entered his body.

A familiar energy body deep in my mind flashed slightly and then fell silent again.

His pupils shrank. If he was not mistaken, this seemed to be his magic core.

It was not the primary magic core that had just been transported to the magic world, but the advanced magic core that he had worked hard to upgrade.

It turned out that it had come through with him. No wonder he didn’t feel anything after fleecing it several times. This amount of energy was definitely not enough to activate his advanced magic core.

He noticed the body in his hand was shaking, and continued to scold: “Speak!”

Lin Kecheng’s lips were trembling, his expression was dull, and his pupils were completely out of focus.

The people holding him down soon noticed something was wrong, and quickly freed one of them to pull Xingshi away: “Let go, don’t yell at him yet, wait for him to calm down.”

Xing Shi looked at Lin Kecheng angrily and disappointedly, gave up communicating with him, got up and went back to find Fu Xiuning.

Fu Xiuning sensed that energy entering Xingshi’s body and looked up at him.

Xingshi looked at him, his eyes shining slightly.

Fu Xiuning immediately understood that this was absorbable and useful.

He reached forward and Xingshi caught him, letting him lean against him.

The system didn’t bother to be happy, and continued to explain: “What came in was the energy of Lin Kecheng’s system.”

Xingshi played dumb again: “Huh? Is it because we are allies?”

The system was confused: “Ah?”

Xing Shi said, “Why would his system energy come to me? He must have felt that there was no hope for them, and wanted to hand over the important task to us as his allies. It’s pretty good, how much energy did it give you?”

The system was even more confused: “No… I didn’t get it.”

Xing Shi said: “But you said it came here, it can’t just say hello and leave, right?”

The system felt like its brain was about to smoke: “Wait for me to look through the terms of the alliance.”

Xing Shi said, “Go ahead.”

The system’s computing power is powerful and can turn things over very quickly.

The contract exists to protect the safety and interests of both hosts and to avoid fratricide during the alliance period. Lin Kecheng was rejected by Fu Xiuning because of his own actions, and it had nothing to do with them, but it didn’t say that if one party withdrew, the energy would be given to the ally.

It responded: “No relevant content.”

Xing Shi saw that the president and the others had also arrived and asked, “Is it serious? If not, wait. I will deal with the matter at hand first, and then we can discuss it.”

The system said tactfully: “You are busy.”

As he was speaking, the president ran up to them with a pale face.

She looked at Fu Xiuning’s condition and burst into tears.

Before dinner, the boss said he wanted to confront Lin Kecheng about something and asked her to take Lin Kecheng’s phone. She thought the two would just have a quarrel, but it almost resulted in a death.

With shaking hands, she dialed the number for an ambulance and asked in a trembling voice, “Boss, how are you?”

Fu Xiuning has always been gentle and elegant, but now he looks so embarrassed.

The cups on the coffee table were also smashed, and a piece of glass pierced into his back. The blood mixed with the spilled lemonade, and the entire back was covered with a layer of wet light red.

But this is not the most important thing, the most important thing is his neck.

Fu Xiuning knew which injuries were not fatal, so he made the situation look more serious. The president and the others watched the blood flow from his neck, and they were all terrified.

The person in question frowned slightly, covered his neck with one hand, and put his other hand on Xingshi’s shoulder, leaning against him, and said in a hoarse voice: “Call the police.”

The person next to him said, “I’ll do it.”

Another person said, “I’ll go ask the hotel staff if they have a first aid kit!”

After a brief panic, everyone started to get busy.

But whenever they glanced at Fu Xiuning, they became a little uneasy, fearing that their boss would lose too much blood and go into shock in the next second.

Xingshi helped him sit on the sofa, and amid everyone’s gasps, he lifted up his hand to check the wound, confirmed that it was not fatal, and helped him stop the bleeding urgently.

The hotel manager and the Fu family’s charity director soon arrived.

The person in charge arranged this dinner, but in order to let them have fun, he left the private room halfway and just received the news.

The Fu family is wealthy and powerful, and Fu Xiuning, as the only son of the president who has already held shares, holds a very important position.

He had only seen Fu Xiuning twice from a distance before, and this was his first time dealing with him. He followed his instructions and contacted students from Z University to organize charity events, and then invited members of the student union to a dinner at the company’s hotel, and debugged the live broadcast equipment in advance.

He knew what his young master wanted to do tonight, but he had heard that the other party had been an excellent student since childhood, and he thought that a group of students from a prestigious university would not cause any big trouble, so he did not take it seriously. As a result, it turned out to be such a serious matter.

If this really happened… He looked at Fu Xiuning’s neck and broke out in a cold sweat.

Fortunately, the hotel and the hospital were not far away, and the ambulance arrived quickly.

Fu Xiuning put his arm around Xingshi’s shoulder and stood up again, and saw that Lin Kecheng, who had been slumped on the ground and was being watched by everyone, had finally come back to his senses.

He first looked around blankly, then looked at Fu Xiuning.

When the system is separated from the native host, it will not waste energy to kill the other party, but will only erase his memory.

At first they erased all memories, but as the host’s connection failed, the main system probably felt that if more people lost their memory and went crazy in front of Fu Xiuning, it would arouse his suspicion, so it adjusted the plan and only erased the part of the host related to the system, while retaining the rest.

Therefore, Lin Kecheng clearly remembered what he had just done.

He hurriedly dragged his sore body forward. After being held down by the people around him, he struggled to take a step on his knees and cried, “Senior…Senior, I was wrong. Please forgive me this time. I swear I will never dare to do it again! I just…I just want to follow you and stand by your side.”

He seemed to be dreaming.

University of Z is full of hidden dragons and crouching tigers, and he was an inconspicuous person among them. However, he suddenly got the courage from nowhere and tore off his mediocre shell. He did many things that he had only dared to think about in his dreams, and became more and more arrogant and extreme.

Unfortunately, his ability could not support his ambition. Now that he had woken up from his dream, he seemed like a turtle that had been stripped of its shell, and returned to his previous weak state.

He was shaking all over, crying and snotting: “Senior, I wasn’t serious when I said I wanted to kill you. I was just possessed by a ghost for a moment. I don’t know what I was thinking or why I did this. I was wrong and I’m sorry. Please forgive me, senior…”

Fu Xiuning lowered his eyes and looked at him. He tapped Xingshi’s shoulder lightly a few times with his hand and then stopped quickly.

Xingshi turned his head inquiringly, but couldn’t see any meaning or hint from him. After thinking about it for a while, he understood. It turned out that he was enjoying the other person’s pain and keeping the rhythm to the wailing, just for pure happiness.

He wanted to laugh for a moment, but he held it back and asked, “Do you want to go?”

Fu Xiuning said weakly: “Let’s go.”

He gave Lin Kecheng a last appreciative look and said calmly, “You can tell the police about it.”

Lin Kecheng shook his head fiercely: “No, no, no…”

He watched the other person leave and rushed forward again: “Senior, don’t go…Senior!”

Xingshi helped the man out of the lounge, handed him over to the medical staff who were rushing over, and accompanied him into the car.

Fu Xiuning had a back injury and couldn’t lean back, so he leaned against him.

There was a faint smell of blood in Xingshi’s nostrils, and his breath sprayed rhythmically on his neck, giving him goose bumps.

He turned his head to look at the people around him. Fu Xiuning had returned to his usual self, his face a little pale, and he sat there gently and calmly. He didn’t look like the culprit who planned all this at all, which made the medical staff in front of him feel infinite pity for him.

Fu Xiuning seemed to be aware of his gaze and raised his eyes.

Xing Shi asked: “Does it hurt?”

Fu Xiuning said: “Not bad.”

Xingshi looked at him and said, “Don’t be so scary next time. Think about me, your brother.”

Fu Xiuning knew that this meant to reveal some information to him, so he nodded gently and adjusted his posture to make himself more comfortable.

The system just came out of the chat group.

There will be a special reminder sound when a group member leaves.

Upon hearing the noise, several systems hurriedly joined the group.

Then they saw the ID named “God Feeds Me” suddenly dim and then disappear, and they immediately notified their host.

The hosts’ reactions were basically the same, telling them to find out who it was.

They don’t know each other’s identities, and usually they can only get each other’s information when the system is offline – because it is easy to check, and the one who is most likely to have an accident with Fu Xiuning is the one.

So several systems easily got the result: Lin Kecheng, a student of Z University, director of the Student Union’s Literature and Art Department.

Soon after, the cause of the incident was found out: Fu Xiuning had been plotting against him, so Fu Xiuning organized a charity event to get people to work, and when the other party was enthusiastic, he organized a dinner party, and then did a live broadcast to expose the truth, giving people hope and then despair, and driving people crazy.

They give feedback to their hosts, hoping that their hosts can draw lessons from their experiences and avoid making the same mistakes again.

After hearing this, several hosts fell silent, thinking that it was indeed Fu Xiuning, his perverted personality was still there.

The system and the host had a discussion about this matter before joining the group.

The group, which had been quiet for many days, became lively again.

Coming from behind: [Hiss, another one is gone. When was the last one gone? ]

Wish you a prosperous New Year: [Beginning of the year]

Come from behind: [Have you all finished reading the information? I suddenly became a good guy and redefined peace of mind]

You are all concubines: [Haha, you said so many beautiful words, but in the end you all left]

Gong Xi Fa Cai: [Alas, it seems like it was just yesterday when it last showed off that it had a worry-free host]

You are all concubines: [Just get used to it, I will be the last one to stay anyway]

Come from behind: [Look at my ID, you are not necessarily

Gong Xi Fa Cai: [Don’t make a fuss, a family member has passed away, at least pay tribute to him]

The best fortune: [light the candle]

System 99 had been instructed by Xingshi not to speak easily, but if someone in the group sent an emoticon, it could send one as well, and it followed with a candle.

Several systems were inspired and began to talk about the host’s fancy exits over the years. Most of them had never been seen before, and they speculated based on Fu Xiuning’s information.

System 99, as a newcomer, has remained silent. Shang Shang Qian is not a talkative person and is basically the most active of the three.

After a round of discussion, all the systems looked at this bloody lesson and suddenly fell silent.

After a few seconds, one of them bubbled up.

Coming from behind: [Just… do you think anyone can really succeed? ]

The other systems remained silent, and the group fell into silence again.

System 99 was also shocked by what he saw. He closed the chat box and immediately looked at Fu Xiuning who was adjusting his posture.

Fu Xiuning’s words during the live broadcast, such as “I always know my location” and “I suspect you are an organization”, not only scared Lin Kecheng and his system, but also almost scared it offline. However, it was distracted by the energy and didn’t care about being afraid.

After watching his colleagues chatting and looking at Fu Xiuning closely, fear quickly surged up in his heart.

It has been having so much fun with its host Cricket recently that it has forgotten that this is a big boss that has not been conquered in five years and has killed a lot of systems and hosts.

He can do whatever he wants to people without any warning.

It had clearly seen Fu Xiuning and Lin Kecheng chatting and laughing during the meal, but then he sent them away.

It couldn’t help but sob.

Xing Shi and Fu Xiuning heard it clearly and exchanged glances calmly, not sure whether it had discovered anything.

Xing Shi asked in surprise: “What’s wrong with you?”

The system said: “I’m a little scared.”

Xing Shi said: “What are you afraid of?”

The system cried, “I’m afraid of Fu Xiuning. He’s too scary. What if he suddenly plots against us in the future? I know you’re smart, but I’m really afraid you can’t beat him.”

Xing Shi felt relieved: “Think about it again, did I rely on my smart strategy? I relied on my looks!”

The system’s sobbing stopped.

Xing Shi said: “Let’s go check our favorability scores.”

The system looked at this 12 and felt that it was fine. Finally, it asked worriedly: “What should we do if he doesn’t like your face in the future?”

Xingshi thought for a moment and said, “Then I’ll be his father.”

system:”?”

Fu Xiuning: “…”

The system didn’t understand his train of thought, but hearing him so calm, it suddenly felt at ease for some reason.

It asked, “Want to talk about that energy?”

Xing Shi watched the ambulance stop and said, “Wait a little longer.”

Treating the wound, being questioned by the police… by the time I was almost done with everything, it was almost ten o’clock when I got home.

Fu Xiuning was covered in blood and lemonade. He had always lived a refined life and it was impossible for him to sleep with this stuff on. Xing Shi wanted to ask if he could help him wipe it off, but he saw that he had called a nurse in advance.

The caregiver was very professional. Not only did he take good care of him, he even washed his hair. He smiled at them kindly and said goodbye.

Xingshi looked at the man who was dressed neatly, finished talking on the phone with his family, and then sat on the sofa reading a book. He was somewhat impressed. He was indeed a veteran.

He walked over, sat down, and called the system.

He chatted with it on and off that night, but never mentioned this matter. Now that he was sure that it didn’t look like it had discovered anything, he started to talk in depth.

He asked, “What is that energy like?”

The system said: “I don’t know, it seems to have disappeared in your body, you really don’t feel uncomfortable?”

Xing Shi said: “No.”

The system said: “I scanned several times, but couldn’t find where they went.”

Xingshi guessed that this was because the high-level magic core was an energy body, and its protection mechanism would be activated when it was dormant.

He said, “How about you check it again?”

The system said: “Okay.”

Fu Xiuning lowered his eyes and looked at the book, waiting for the result.

He didn’t know the specifics of Xingshi’s situation, but he knew it was the last thing they had to deal with tonight.

Xingshi was also waiting, and after a few seconds, he heard it say, “Still haven’t found it.”

He said “Oh” with some regret.

From this incident, we can see that the level of his magic core is above these systems. He sincerely hopes that the system can find it. As long as it can touch his magic core, it will be absorbed by him immediately.

The system said: “Why don’t I report it to the main system and try.”

Xing Shi said: “I don’t recommend this.”

The system asked: “Why?”

Xing Shi said: “If the main system suspects that I have a problem and takes me back for inspection, your first prize will be gone and you will have to find a new host.”

The system thought it made sense and asked, “What if there is something wrong with this energy?”

Xing Shi said: “You can report it later.”

He reasoned: “You have more energy than it, you can help me block it while going to complain to the main system. We have goodwill points to charge, what are we afraid of?”

The system considered the pros and cons and was convinced: “Okay.”

Xing Shi and Fu Xiuning looked at each other secretly, knowing that they had passed this level and could move on to the next host.

Xingshi felt that his luck was not that bad. Although he had traveled into a magical world, he had traveled back out. Although he was bound to the system, his magic core had also come with him, and the system he encountered was still one that was easy to fool.

He decided to reward it and said, “We had a terrible night. How about we watch two episodes of Little Bears to relieve our stress?”

The system was immediately happy: “Okay!”

Fu Xiuning sat quietly, waiting for Xingshi to push the snack cart over. When he turned on the TV and found the playback record, he closed the book and said, “I’m going to bed. Don’t read too late.”

Xingshi did not stop him because he was injured.

But the system knew that Fu Xiuning also loved to watch, and was somewhat afraid of him, so it said considerately: “Then let’s wait for him to join us. It’s better to keep the same progress. Don’t watch it today, and watch it tomorrow.”

Xing Shi: “…”

Fu Xiuning: “…”

Xingshi suppressed the laughter that was about to burst out of his throat and agreed: “You are right, how can we abandon him?”

The system said: “Yes.”

Xingshi turned off the TV and went back to his room to sleep.

The next day, the two of them sat down in a restaurant, and Xing Shi discovered the fingerprints on Fu Xiuning’s neck.

Lin Kecheng was so brutal when he exploded that he showed no mercy at all. After one night, bruises began to appear. Fu Xiuning’s neck was wrapped in gauze, but a small part of it was still exposed from the edge.

A bit of an eyesore, he thought.

Fu Xiuning ate his meal slowly and looked across.

Xingshi pointed at his neck.

Fu Xiuning said: “It will go down in a few days.”

Xing Shi asked: “Are you going to the company today?”

Fu Xiuning said “hmm”.

He actually has no interest in work, but the system’s newbie lottery is adjusted according to his life. In order to make future hosts as many as possible as artists, he has to make sure he spends enough time in the company.

Xingshi has classes in the morning and arrives at the company at noon.

Fu Xiuning came to work calmly despite his injury. After a whole morning of fermentation, the news gradually spread.

The trainees only heard a little bit about it, but they didn’t know the details. As a result, Fu Xiuning came to the restaurant at noon. Everyone watched him go to the private room inside and hissed in unison.

Xingshi came in at this time.

He put his bag on the seat and saw that they were all staring at him. He raised an eyebrow and said, “What?”

Everyone was worried about falling into a trap and hesitated to speak.

Feng Zifan and Yu Yi’s eyes were a little subtle. There seemed to be finger marks on the boss’s neck, which looked like domestic violence. It was known that Xingshi and the boss lived together.

Xingshi looked at them: “What happened?”

He said as he realized something: “Did you see the injuries on the boss’ body?”

Everyone nodded vigorously, and seeing that he looked normal, they knew that this matter could be asked.

Feng Zifan asked: “How did you do it?”

Xing Shi said: “Wait until I ask him if he can tell me, and then I’ll tell you.”

Everyone’s eyes lit up as they couldn’t suppress their gossip: “He’s eating in the private room. Why don’t you go eat with him? The food there might be delicious.”

Xingshi had heard them say before that there might be a special kitchen inside, but his relationship with Fu Xiuning was just average at that time, and he didn’t want to be too high-profile. In addition, the food outside was very much to his taste, so he never went there to eat.

Now… He hesitated for a moment: “Is it not good for a trainee like me to go to the boss for dinner? It will easily lead to gossip.”

Everyone said in unison: “With your relationship with the boss, if anyone dares to gossip about you, we will help you scold him!”

Unable to refuse their kindness, Xingshi said goodbye to them and went to the private room.

Although it is called a private room, it is actually a more elegant and quiet dining area with several seats, which provides good privacy.

Fu Xiuning was sitting alone in a booth. The food had just been served. When he saw him, he glanced at him.

Xing Shi said considerately, “Brother, I’ll come and have dinner with you.”

Fu Xiuning saw through his purpose at a glance, and knew that he came in today to eat for free most likely using his injury as an excuse, and it was very likely that he was welcomed in by those people.

He motioned for the other person to get whatever he wanted to eat, and when the person came back, he asked, “Can’t we get you outside?”

Xingshi tasted the food here and found that it was indeed better than outside. He said, “I was worried about you and couldn’t eat.”

Fu Xiuning said gently: “Forgive my poor eyesight.”

Xing Shi swallowed what he had in his mouth: “It’s true, you were already injured, and you have to eat alone, how miserable it is, I can’t let you suffer this injustice!”

Fu Xiuning said: “I don’t feel wronged.”

Xing Shi said: “But your brother thinks you are wronged.”

He picked up a shrimp and put it into the other person’s bowl, smiling brightly: “Brother, I will accompany you from now on, okay?”

Fu Xiuning remained unmoved.

He curled the corners of his mouth and was about to give a lecture when he heard a familiar voice.
