The Path Toward Heaven

Zhong Lizi has been counting the days and money to live. Because of her father, Xinshi College waived her tuition and miscellaneous fees, but she always needs to eat to live. More importantly, the medicine for curing diseases cannot be stopped, and she still has a glimmer of hope in the bottom of her heart. What if she can participate in the third genetic modification in the future and cure her disease?

She couldn't earn money through work-study in the college, and she couldn't find a part-time job in the dimly lit civilian neighborhood, and she didn't dare to look for any risky opportunities above, so there was only one way, which was to rent out the house.

She posted a notice of co-renting recruitment on the college network very early, and was prepared to give up the bedroom and live in the study if anyone was willing to come. However, none of the students who are eligible to study in the academy are willing to come to the lowest neighborhoods. The recruitment notice has been sent out for many days and there has been no response.

Today, one suddenly came, and without calling, he came directly to the door. This was unreasonable, and made her a little vigilant and uneasy, especially when the other party was wearing a hat and the brim of the hat was pulled down extremely low, looking like those perverted murderers in movies... But... why does this person have such a nice voice?

The boy in the hat is Jing Jiu.

He didn't think that the common sense he had acquired in the past few days was not enough, and he didn't think that the reason why the door was opened was because of his voice.

His speech is learned from the hosts and reporters in the news. It can be said that his words are correct and his voice is moving, which is exactly the legendary broadcasting accent.

Isn't broadcast accent just used to persuade and make people believe? Even if it's a lie.

Please come in.

It was only when Zhong Lizi let the other party into the house that he felt a little reckless, so he forced himself to sit down on the chair and poured him a glass of water.

Jing Jiu took out a cushion from under his body and put it under the left armrest. The movement was very natural, and then he pointed to the coffee table to indicate that it should be placed there.

Zhong Lizi was slightly taken aback, thinking that this person was out of sight, cleared his throat, and said, I want to see your ID card first.

Jing Jiu still knew this common sense, but the incident happened in a hurry, more precisely because he was lazy so he was not prepared.

He took off his hat directly.

In Chaotian Continent, his face is the pass, so is it also valid here?

The room became extremely quiet. Zhong Lizi looked at his face, opened his mouth slightly, and was speechless for a long while in shock.

Jing Jiu said, I have some inconvenience.

Zhong Lizi is a very smart girl. After waking up from the shock, she vaguely guessed something. After a moment of silence, she gritted her teeth and said, Then I will pay more.

Jing Jiu learned a very profound lesson when he traveled with Zhao Layue back then. He knew the importance of money and was prepared long ago.

He took a gold coin out of his pocket and put it on the table.

Last night, he checked the rent information of this street on the computer, went to a black market game hall to pick up a sportswear, and took a gold coin from the safe of the potbellied boss.

This gold coin is about three fingers wide. It is engraved with extremely complex patterns using laser technology. It is the common currency of the Galaxy Alliance. According to the metal exchange information he found, this gold coin is enough to support the rent of such a house for three years, and he only plans to stay here for nine days, which should be more than enough.

Zhong Lizi was shocked again, not because the amount was too large, but because...whether Stargate or other galaxies trade with credit points, who would use cash? What's more important is that the circulation of this kind of gold coins is not much, except for some circulating on the black market, most of them are regarded as collections by the people above.

This young man is unbelievably good-looking, sitting on a chair casually, with a quiet and noble air, it is impossible for him to be a guy in the black market.

Zhong Lizi reconfirmed his guess, he must be the person above, and asked: Have you read all the conditions in the joint rental recruitment notice?

Jing Jiu hummed.

Zhong Lizi thought to himself that the important people were as taciturn as they were in the movies, and asked, What's your opinion?

Jing Jiu lived in this house like a ghost for several days. He knew what the little girl didn't like, so he said directly, Every night at eight o'clock, I watch the news for an hour. I don't cook. I only use the toilet after you leave. The house is guaranteed to be the same every day.

As for the sharing of expenses, keeping it clean, and not being allowed to bring people back, he didn't even mention it. Zhong Lizi was not satisfied. This kind of person who ran down from the top would not have any friends. The cleanliness must be worse than himself, so there is nothing to worry about, and he is so good-looking.

Deal. She stood up, ready to take Jing Jiu to visit the bedroom, and then moved her bedding to the study.

Jing Jiu stood up, walked to the door of the study and said, I'll sleep here.

Zhong Lizi said: This is the study, the place is too small.

Jing Jiu needs to read, and the small window can see a corner of the distant universe, so he can guard against those warships bombarding themselves with small stars.

He opened the door impolitely, pretended to examine it, and said, It's here.

Seeing that he was not being polite, Zhong Lizi said with some anxiety, Then... shall I reduce your rent?

No need. Jing Jiu's gaze fell on the coffee table, looked at the computer and said, If you don't mind, you can lend me the computer for normal use.

That gold coin was enough to buy a few of the latest civilian computers, so Zhong Lizi naturally didn't mind, and after making a small bed for him in the study, he handed over the computer to him.

——This young man is quite nice, although he is a little taciturn, and he declined his rare invitation to have dinner with him.

Zhong Lizi looked at the closed door of the study, thinking like this in his heart, suddenly thought of something, pushed open the door and said: Password...

There is no privacy in the computer, and there is nothing that needs to be kept secret, but she forgot to tell Jing Jiu the password.

Jing Jiu looked back at her, hummed, expressing his doubts.

The computer screen was already on, and there were many blue data bytes scrolling rapidly across it.

nothing.

Zhong Lizi shook his head quickly, like a puppy, turned around and fled out of the study, not forgetting to close the door for him. When she came to the soft chair, she hugged the plush toy and looked at the photo on the cabinet. After a long silence, she said softly, Xiao Huang...he is still a computer expert.

Jing Jiu has only been exposed to computers for a few days. He may be an expert, if not in the future, he will definitely become an expert.

But he can open Zhong Lizi's computer without a password, and it has nothing to do with Yungui's ability to crack it.

He has been using this computer for the past few days. For convenience, he copied Zhong Lizi's fingerprint on his finger when she was asleep.

He suddenly thought of the most important thing, walked out of the study with the computer in his arms, and said to Zhong Lizi: Can you log in to the academy network for me? You can add money.

Before Zhong Lizi could speak, he held the computer up to her eyes, aiming at her eyes.

Zhong Lizi was a little at a loss, wondering where the computer expert he had agreed to be?

...

...

It's not that Jing Jiu never thought about copying Zhong Lizi's irises, so that he wouldn't mind continuing to be a ghost in this room. The problem is that the iris is more complicated, and it needs to be observed for a long enough time. He can't stare into her eyes without her noticing, and it's a bit indecent to put her to sleep and then open her eyelids...

Well, in essence, he knows that he has to enter this world after all to master everything in this world, so it will be a matter of time before he changes from a ghost back to a human.

He is familiar with this room, and he is already familiar with this silver-haired girl, so this is the best choice.

In the next few days, he watched TV and read books during the day, and at night when she came back, he would log on to the academy website to start studying, and did nothing else.

Zhong Lizi noticed that the food ration had not decreased, and he rarely rested, so he couldn't help feeling a little worried.

...

...

On the first day, Jing Jiu finished all the courses in the language in the standard textbook of the Galaxy Alliance and the detailed rules of the dialects of each planet.

The next day, he finished all his astronomy and geography courses.

On the third day, he finished all his biology and chemistry courses.

On the fourth day, he started to learn physics and found it difficult.

On the fifth day, he decided to change his mind. After reading art, music and other art-related tutorials, he felt that he was not interested. After reading hundreds of books on philosophy and theology, he found that it was similar to Chaotian Continent.

On the sixth day, he resumed studying physics.

On the seventh day, he continued to study physics.

On the night of the eighth day, Zhong Lizi finally noticed that his face was a little ugly, and asked, What's the problem?

Jing Jiu wanted to be a teacher to the master, so there was nothing to be ashamed of, so he turned the computer to point at her.

Zhong Lizi looked at the question on the computer screen, was silent for a while, and asked, Have you been studying the minimum energy constant these days?

Jing Jiu hummed, and said, The name Quantum is very interesting.

But it's hard... Zhong Lizi looked at him like a monster, and said, Are you sure that I, an ordinary student of Xinshi College, can understand this?

Jing Jiu didn't know the average level of knowledge in this world, and said, I think astrophysics is more interesting, but I can't figure out some problems for now.

Zhong Lizi thought that Quantum is to blame for indecision. I really don’t understand that stuff, but astronomy is simple. He said enthusiastically, “Why don’t you understand?”

Jing Jiu asked, What was before the Big Bang?

Zhong Lizi got up silently and went to get a glass of water.

Jing Jiu continued: According to what you said, there was no concept of time before the creation of the universe, so asking what happened before is a non-existent question.

Zhong Lizi thought that the professor seemed to say so, and quickly said, Not bad.

Maybe this statement is correct. Jing Jiu thought for a long time, and finally gave his own judgment, But I don't like it.

Zhong Lizi almost spit out a mouthful of water, wondering if the laws of physics will change just because you don't like it?

She became more and more worried about the boy's mental state, and asked, Why don't you read the textbooks on martial arts practice and genetic modification?

Jing Jiu said, At the end of the day.

He ignored her and looked at the computer screen again.

When he saw a scientist's high-string theory hypothesis, he thought of Nan Wang's sword string, and then thought of Chaotian Continent.

He got up and walked to the window to look at the high corner of the universe, thinking about the time, the old talk should have come out, right?

...

...

(Whether the old talk is out or not is one thing. The book in simplified Chinese is really coming out. It should be on the shelves of bookstores around the world on November 20th, but it has already started online pre-sale. The publisher asked me to tell you quickly, because many bookstores will have coupons on Double Eleven. If you want to buy physical books, hurry up and book them. Get the coupons to save money... Well, I really didn’t expect that as a person who is determined not to buy anything on Double Eleven, he will start selling things on Double Eleven... The world is too amazing. It will be posted on today’s official account, thank you everyone.)
