Chapter 012 Endless Free Food
Although his identity as a time traveler was discovered by the other party, Su Ming felt that having his identity as a time traveler known by this girl was not only not a bad thing, but might even have many benefits.
Although this intuition was outrageous and almost like an illusion, Su Ming felt that it was the fact.
"Are time travelers common?" Su Ming tried his best to speak in a nonchalant tone, making the question sound like a casual one.
"Sure enough... you are a time traveler." Xia Xiaoyu stroked her chin, looked up at the ceiling of the bedroom, and fell into memories. "Time travelers are not particularly common. Proportionally speaking, they are very few, but the base number is actually not small. I remember more than ten of them."
After listening to this, Su Ming was confused.
He had prepared himself mentally to accept the existence of other time travelers, but he didn't expect that Xia Xiaoyu alone knew of more than a dozen of them... To be honest, this was a bit too many.
He traveled to this world with a mission, but what about other travelers? Do they also have their own missions?
If so, will there be conflicts between my mission and that of other travelers? Will there be a war in the end?
"Xiaoyu, what exactly is the time traveler you mentioned?"
"It's a bit troublesome to explain. When I recover from my injury, I will steal the information and show it to you."
Su Ming was silent, thinking that Xia Xiaoyu's ability was really convenient. With this ability, he would be the most perfect spy in the world. It was a pity that Xia Xiaoyu's ability was passive, otherwise such a precious ability would definitely be fought over by all countries.
Xia Xiaoyu saw Su Ming's expression change slightly, and immediately changed her words: "You don't like people who steal things? Then I'll take out the information for you to see."
"No, it's up to you. I'm not that pretentious. Besides, is there any difference between taking it out and stealing it?"
"It makes no difference to me, but I think you might be happier if I use the word 'take'." Xia Xiaoyu looked at him with a smile, "You don't mind me trying to please you like this, do you?"
Su Ming turned his head away and didn't look at the other party. He was a little overwhelmed by the other party's attack.
Xia Xiaoyu straightened up from the bed: "Ah, I feel much better! I can almost move freely."
"Is this okay with you?" Su Ming asked.
"No problem, thank you for your concern. Although I am not a reborn person, I recover very quickly. I just lost too much blood before."
Xia Xiaoyu touched the wound, then got out of bed and started to organize the medical equipment as if nothing had happened.
Just then, the sound of a door opening was heard outside.
A few seconds later, Flora walked into the bedroom. She ignored the large pool of blood left by Xia Xiaoyu on the bed and sat down directly beside the bed.
"I haven't asked you your name yet? What's your name?" Flora said.
"Su Ming ."
"I fainted at that time. You rescued me, right?"
"I guess so." Su Ming shrugged.
"Thank you. If it weren't for you, I would have died there." Flora let out a tired sigh.
"You're welcome. You helped us a lot back then."
"Please, please let me treat you to dinner to express my gratitude to you!"
Flora suddenly looked up and met Su Ming's eyes. Her expression was very serious.
Xia Xiaoyu said that the woman in front of him was some kind of new noble, and she seemed to be very well-known. If nothing unexpected happened, she should have a lot of money. Now that he had just traveled to this world and was homeless, it should not be too much to take some money from her as a resettlement fee.
Of course, if I could make friends with her, it would be much more convenient to live in this city in the future. After all, humans are creatures that cannot survive alone without a group.
Everyone is born with a natural network of contacts, but Su Ming doesn't have one now, so he has to build his network from scratch.
Su Ming thought for a few seconds and agreed immediately.
"Then... I'd rather obey you than be disrespectful."
If Flora could become his friend, that would be a very good start. Flora was very strong, not only had money but also status. With her as a friend, it would be much easier to do anything in the future.
Su Ming admitted that his idea was indeed somewhat utilitarian, but now he was really desperate. He had no money and no one to rely on. If he walked out of this door, he would have to sleep on the streets.
At this time, Xia Xiaoyu next to him suddenly said, "Since you are a time traveler, you should not have any money on you, right?"
"Well, I'm penniless, so I have to find a way to make some money." Su Ming replied.
"You have to live somewhere, right? Do you want me to help you get a few hundred million?"
Su Ming stared at the other party blankly: "How many...how many hundreds of millions?!"
"Should it be enough?" Xia Xiaoyu gave a sly smile, with a hint of pride in her sparkling eyes.
Su Ming almost forgot that Xia Xiaoyu herself would not attract attention, so she could eat and drink in any restaurant at will, and could follow the armored car into the bank's vault to move gold bricks at will. To her, money is simply a pile of waste paper.
Thinking about it this way, Xia Xiaoyu’s ability is not a curse at all, it is simply the best ability!
"Here you go." Xia Xiaoyu took a card from the box and put it in Su Ming's hand. "There should be 80 million left in it . You can use it first."
Su Ming held the black card in his hand and fell into deep thought: Is this considered a gigolo?
"Su Ming, are you listening?" Flora on the opposite side asked again.
Su Ming then came to his senses. When he was amazed at how he had become a billionaire in an instant, Flora had already said what she was going to say, but he didn't hear it.
"Sorry, I was distracted just now."
"It's okay. Where do you live now?"
"Me? I haven't decided where to stay yet. I'll probably find a hotel to stay in first."
"Could it be that you have just arrived at Dongyang Island as well?"
"Yeah, I just got here." Su Ming replied.
He now knew where he was. He was in a place called Dongyang Island, not on the mainland, but on the sea.
"Why did you come here?" Flora asked in surprise.
"I'm here to travel." Su Ming replied.
Flora was stunned when she heard this, then frowned slightly. She glanced at Su Ming suspiciously and said cautiously, "You...are you a criminal?"
"Of course I'm not! Why do you think I'm a criminal?!"
"I also think that you can't be a criminal. Someone as powerful as you must be here to carry out a mission... Sorry, I just said something out of turn, please don't mind." Flora was very polite.
Su Ming turned to look at Xia Xiaoyu, "Why does she think I'm a criminal? I don't look like a bad person."
"Because you said the wrong thing, no one will come to Dongyang Island for tourism, unless they are crazy." Xia Xiaoyu said, "Dongyang Island is a taboo island, normal people will not come here.
Su Ming, I think I should first give you some common knowledge about this world, so that you won't be exposed later.
If you continue like this, your identity as a time traveler will be exposed sooner or later and you will be caught by the Investigation Bureau."
Su Ming felt that what Xia Xiaoyu said made sense. If he continued to answer questions irrelevantly as he did now, it would not be long before his identity as a time traveler would be confirmed.
In order to avoid such a situation, Su Ming planned to immediately make up for the common sense of this world.
So, he said goodbye to Flora on the pretext of finding a hotel to stay in first, and they agreed to come back here for dinner in the evening.
Afterwards, at Xia Xiaoyu's recommendation, he chose the most upscale hotel nearby as his place to stay.
Su Ming knew that he was not a wasteful person, but... since it was not his own money, then spending it could be considered as returning funds to society, right?
