“At present, it seems that only you can ease the boss’s symptoms. I’m talking about you, not the blue medicine.”
When they reached the balcony on the second floor, Changming went straight to the point. He especially emphasized the last sentence.
Tang Susu, who thought that he was going to ask about the Nutrient Solution, fell silent for a moment. “I can’t do anything much for him.”
“No, Miss Tang. You should be able to see how much he cares about you.” Changming even used honorifics in his speech. “His thoughts had turned into action. Even if it’s just superficial, it’s still better than…”
“Better than what?”
“Have you ever seen a patient with severe anorexia?”
Tang Susu instantly thought of a female fan she had once seen. Because of her excessive dieting and weight loss, she had almost become a bag of bones. She felt guilty about everything she ate and even habitually vomited. Her psychological illness was more serious than her physical illness.
However, she couldn’t link it to Shen Zhiting. He didn’t look out of place at all.
“He craves to eat very much, but he has a serious eating disorder. I’ve checked on him and found no problems with his body, so 1 suspect that it’s psychological, but he’s psychologically…There shouldn’t be any problems at all.”
“I guess we can only explain it, as the cause of the disease is unknown.” Changming smiled bitterly.
In the history of medicine, there were many difficult and complicated illnesses with unknown causes. Tang Susu didn’t seem to find it difficult to understand when it came to Shen Zhiting.
“What kind of effect will his eating disorder have?”
Chang Ming looked at her and felt that this woman seemed to know everything. He also couldn’t explain why, but he trusted her.
“Other than the rapid drop in body temperature to maintain energy, his body will fall into hibernation. He would also become violent and irritable because of excessive hunger. However, the boss usually has strong self-control, so it’s difficult for us to spot it.”
Even so, he couldn’t help but observe Tang Susu’s reaction, afraid that he would see fear and displeasure on her face. If that happened, the boss would probably kill him when he woke up!
In fact, there were a few more things that he did not mention… Brutality, bloodlust, and loss of control. Even he would become terrified, let alone this young woman in front of him.
But Tang Susu’s expression was calm, and it was impossible to tell what she was thinking.
“Body temperature dropping… Hibernation…?”
Chang Ming’s heart skipped a beat.
“What exactly is he?”
Changming’s heart almost stopped, as he could only stare at her in shock.
However, the young woman seemed to talk about something ordinary, and her expression didn’t change at all. “Occasionally, he would even stop breathing and had no heartbeats.”
“What… what are you talking about?” Changming asked as he tried to stay calm and forced a smile. “You’re not suspecting that he’s a zombie, are you?”
Tang Susu hadn’t thought of this possibility. She had already met the Zombie King, so the plot wouldn’t follow something so cliche. And for the plot to arrange such an identity for Shen Zhiting? That would be below him.
As the character that the finale would revolve around… It had to be something surprising.
“If I remember correctly, you were still curious about what our child would look like yesterday.” Tang Susu bluntly exposed him. “If it wasn’t for the fact that he’s from a different species, would you be so caught up with this question?”
Changming staggered. “A… different species?”
He was already regretting about the fact that he spoke to Tang Susu. He was afraid that she would find out everything if he continued to say anything else. “Cough, it’s not to the extent of…” Fearing that he would be misunderstood, Changming emphasized his main point again, “The boss is a human. He’s not some weird monster, really!”
The more he spoke, the more she thought of another possibility.
‘System, id he come from the same place as you?’ That would explain a lot. 008’s fear of him, as well as the Mother System’s meddling, and the matching rate.
Science fiction movies often mentioned Cryonics, which could resurrect people and keep them in a dormant state at extremely low temperatures. Shen Zhiting might be an alien species from somewhere in the galaxy.
The more Tang Susu thought about it, the more she felt it was true.
She wasn’t worried about speculating about the game’s settings with her imagination.
008 almost fainted. ‘He and I are not from the same dimension. Even if we are, we’re definitely not from the same civilization. The Mother System would have noticed him not only because he has a deep relationship with you, but there is probably another important reason.’
‘What is it?’
‘He has extremely powerful psionic power. In the Galactic Era, no matter what species we are talking about, their psionic power determines their strength and social status.. Shen Zhiting’s Psionic Index is as high as SSS level, the highest level in any star system!’
