After rebirth, she first killed the book thief, and she was busy writing articles to save people

After Yao Jing finished speaking, Jiang Baige and Song Siwen fell silent because they didn't know what to say.

The almost frozen time was not broken until the food was served.

But looking at the delicious food in front of her, Jiang Baige no longer had any appetite.

Song Siwen found his voice again: "What you said... is it true?"

"Replacement guaranteed."

Jiang Baige remained silent. Yao Jing tapped the table in front of her with his fingers: "Hey, come back to your senses... Don't you have anything to ask me?"

She knew where the story was going, so what else was there to ask?

It was precisely because they felt that they had nothing to say that they let silence spread among the three of them... No, she suddenly thought of something.

"Two questions."

"You say." Yao Jing still had that gentle expression.

"First, when will they start?"

Yao Jing shook his head: "I don't know... But if you are willing to help me, I can go and find out."

If he was really the woman's cousin, this would not be difficult for him.

But the second problem arises.

"Since it's obviously easier for you to get close to the person who wants to harm Teacher Liu than it is for me, what else do you need me to do?"

"You also said that I was the one who was close to harming her... Put yourself in his shoes. If the cousin of the person who destroyed your family suddenly came up to you and told you that my sister wanted to kill your child, but I stand on your side and will help you... would you believe it?"

The answer is obvious.

"So, I can only do the hidden tasks, and you have to do the main tasks."

"Okay, if you must put it that way... then the fact that you came to me means that you already have a solution and you just need my cooperation, right?"

Who doesn’t like to eat ready-made meals?

If Yao Jing could save Liu Shutong, Jiang Baige would not bother with him no matter who he was or how much he knew about her.

But he shook his head: "This is the only thing I can't do. Because this is your mission."

"my task?"

Song Siwen also found it strange: "You said that as if we were real players in a game, and we had to complete tasks and accumulate points in order to survive..."

"That's right to understand."

"Huh?" Song Siwen rolled his eyes. "Are you mentally ill?"

Yao Jing smiled but didn't answer. He had a good temper and even a good appetite. It seemed that after telling the truth, he regained his ease.

But the burden now fell on Jiang Baige's shoulders.

But she wasn't thinking about Liu Shutong, but the "task" that Yao Jing mentioned and the "game player" that Song Siwen mentioned...

Because if it was as they said, it would explain why she was reborn.

However, if she really had entered some game, or had some mission, then why didn't she receive any prompts when she was just reborn?

However, Yao Jing could calmly say the word "mission", which should indicate that his every move can be seen by someone... or even controlled by someone.

Then all her previous problems were solved.

Why was he able to immediately notice his strange reaction to Liu Shutong? Why was he so familiar with online group buying and taxi-hailing? Why did he involve himself in Liu Shutong's case...

Because he was also reborn from the future, and he knew the tragedy that was about to happen to Liu Shutong.

The only difference is that Jiang Baige saved people out of instinct. But for Yao Jing, saving Liu Shutong might be his "mission".

But who assigned him the task?

Is it a live broadcast? Or some kind of system? Or some other supernatural creature? Aliens?

Jiang Baige looked up at him. The latter was immersed in the delicious food and did not seem to be bothered by the "mission" at all.

It shouldn't be...

Since it is a mission, there will definitely be goals, deadlines, ratings, and most importantly... punishment.

No matter how good your mental quality is, you shouldn't be so calm, just like the... NPC in the mission.

NPCs?

Jiang Baige turned her head and looked at Song Siwen: If she and Yao Jing are players, then people like Song Siwen who know nothing about it would become NPCs in the game, right?

This is so scary...

This meant that even though she had taken so much trouble to help them escape from the fire and water, in reality, they did not "exist" at all...

Then wouldn’t her work be in vain?

Her heart, which had originally relaxed because she saw through Yao Jing's identity, was again in tension... If all this was a game, then what was the meaning of everything she did?

Feeling hungry, Jiang Baige gave up on being stubborn and picked up her chopsticks.

Yao Jing glanced at her: "I thought you would ask me more questions..."

"I chose to believe you, aren't you happy?"

Jiang Baige picked up a piece of sweet potato, soaked it in water for a second, and then put it in her bowl.

"I'm happy... Of course I'm happy."

Yao Jing said that he was happy, but his face was blocked by the bowl in his hand, so his true expression could not be seen.

But no matter what, their "Alliance to Save Teacher Liu" has been officially formed.

Since the three of them haven't discussed any specific plan yet, Yao Jing is the only one who has something to do: start with his sister and find out the time when the two men planned the crime.

However, even though he couldn't find out anything, Jiang Baige was not very worried.

Because she knew that this happened during the winter break after the end of this semester.

During the Chinese New Year, the two families agreed in advance that the child would be left in the care of the man before the New Year, and Liu Shutong would come to pick them up after the fourth day of the New Year.

However, their lives came to an abrupt end on the fourth day of the New Year...

And now, there are still several months before the incident.

It was originally more than enough, but if what Yao Jing said today was true, things would become a bit tricky.

If he wasn't lying, his sister had already decided to harm someone... In other words, the time of "winter vacation" was random. If there were interference from other external factors, she might not have to wait until winter vacation, she could do it at any time.

The key to the problem is whether the child's biological father chooses to retain his remaining humanity or insists on helping the evildoer...

But...trust men?

Jiang Baige shook her head in her heart and thought, forget it, I'd better work hard on my own.

"Have you figured out how to help Teacher Liu?"

Song Siwen, who was once again inexplicably dragged into the gang, has never been averse to helping others and is always ready to make big news.

Jiang Baige shook her head: "Not at all... After all, we are students and she is a teacher, and we both have double degrees... Basically, we have no intersection."

If it is your main major, you can go and get some fresh air every few days.

"But there's no need to be pessimistic..." Song Siwen took out the notebook for today's class from her bag, "The teacher told us her email address and the hours she usually works in the school today... If we go find her, it shouldn't be impossible, right?"

"That's fine—"

Suddenly, Jiang Baige's eyes fell on Song Siwen and she smiled with satisfaction.
