Chapter 1993: Upgrade Mission ⑥
As soon as the thought arose, Chubby Chiu’s voice echoed in her mind.
"Ding~ Upgrade mission ⑥ has been triggered. Please investigate the case and identify the murderer of the Great Elder and Third Elder of the Immortal Medical Alliance."
Upon hearing this task, Gu Zhiqi fell silent for a moment.
This mission, why is it suddenly heading in the direction of solving a case?
Chubby Chiu: "Once this mission is completed, we can level up, you know~"
"So, Zhizhi, let’s give it our all."
"Once this mission is completed, we only have 15 upgrade missions left~"
Gu Zhiqi: "..."
Are fifteen tasks considered few?
However, upon closer calculation, there really are only fifteen upgrade missions left.
Chubby Chiu needed to complete upgrade missions to advance from Level Zero to Level Seven.
But once reaching Level Seven, there’s no need for further upgrade missions or spending money. Instead, one needs a particular item.
That item is with her, and when Chubby Chiu reaches Level Seven, it will appear on its own.
Therefore, advancing from Level Seven to Level Eight entails no barriers.
Chubby Chiu’s highest level is Level Eight.
Upon reaching Level Eight, Chubby Chiu can traverse time and space, returning to Aquamarine Star.
Then, she can...
Return home.
Thinking of this, Gu Zhiqi suddenly glanced at Su Yunling.
Indeed, she shouldn’t linger in this world for too long.
Originally, apart from this world’s delicacies, there was little to keep her here.
But now, not only has she gained a host of family and friends, but also a beauty.
After Su Yunling finished discussing the case, he noticed Gu Zhiqi’s somewhat downcast expression.
Seeing this, he immediately asked Gu Zhiqi, "What’s wrong?"
"Are you worried about Zhiyu?"
Considering that Gu Zhiqi seems to have a good relationship with Ling Zhiyu, Su Yunling instinctively assumed she was worried about Ling Zhiyu.
"Don’t worry, I’ll figure it out."
"Although Ling Zhiyu doesn’t get along with the Great Elder, I have investigated, and the Great Elder is her beloved’s father, so she would never kill the Great Elder."
Hearing this, Gu Zhiqi responded to Su Yunling, "I’m not worried about her."
Saying this, Gu Zhiqi leaned back in her seat, slightly turned her head to look at Su Yunling, and said, "If, one day, I have to go to a very distant place, would you be willing to come with me?"
Even though in this world she has friends, family, and someone she cares about...
On Aquamarine Star, there are relatives who have accompanied her for over eight hundred years.
They must all be waiting for her, so she must return.
Once she returns, she can come back again.
However, each world has a different time flow, so she doesn’t know how long it will be until she returns to this one.
Hearing Gu Zhiqi’s question, Su Yunling paused slightly, "Why ask suddenly?"
Considering she’s about to head to Nine Stars City, Su Yunling seemed to grasp something and said, "As long as you wish, I’m willing."
Listening to this, Gu Zhiqi’s eyes moved slightly.
Turning her head, she stared at Su Yunling for several seconds.
A few seconds later, she wiped away the earlier gloom and said, "Tell me the details about the case."
She’s not yet at Level Eight; who knows how long it will take.
Let’s push everything to the back burner until then.
Seeing Gu Zhiqi suddenly change the topic, Su Yunling was caught off guard.
Watching her switch from a downcast mood in a second, Su Yunling was somewhat bewildered.
Why the quick change of emotions?
Though puzzled, Su Yunling didn’t think much of it and complied with Gu Zhiqi’s request, detailing the case situation to her.
