Chapter 44. I've Been Here

Jingzhe really doesn't like the Doctor. What she likes is Rhode Island, as well as Huang and Sir Chen who are related to her. It will take a long time for both parties to cultivate trust.

Think about how long it will take to get 200 trust...

Jingzhe bit her lower lip, struggling in her eyes. She pinched the corners of her clothes with her fingers and lowered her voice: "You must remember, what I like is a twenty-seven-tooth sandalwood comb, that is my

It was a gift from my great-grandmother to me when I was six years old. When I was seventeen years old, I accidentally broke two teeth, the seventh and the eleventh. Do you understand?"

"What?"

Her voice was so low that Zhou Jinru could only hear half of it clearly, and the other half was blurry.

ah!

Jingzhe raised her head in shame, her eyes gleaming with lightning. If he could kill someone, Zhou Jinru would probably have to die seven or eight times before she could forgive her hatred.

"What I tell you is unknown to others. The sandalwood comb was burned by me the year my great-grandmother passed away. Therefore, I am the only one in the world who knows such details. You can use these

Gain my trust quickly, you idiot, you are so stupid!"

Jingzhe wanted to kick him, but she patiently repeated it and asked Zhou Jinru to repeat it again to make sure he remembered it.

Jingzhe gritted his teeth and said: "You must not do anything bad by taking advantage of my trust in you! My trust is very precious. Once I think you can't be trusted, no matter how much you try to restore it, it will be useless."

Zhou Jinru nodded, and his eyes softened when he looked at Jingzhe. She was an official of the Dali Temple in the Yan Kingdom, but she was actually still a girl. She told such a personal matter in full, and the heavy trust behind her was enough to move people.

"Tell the other me that I should never waver in what I should stick to."

This was the last sentence Jingzhe asked Zhou Jinru to convey on her behalf. After saying this, she left alone, unwilling to say anything more.

She made great determination to do this, and she probably hoped to make up for any regrets.

The moment Zhou Jinru turned around, he saw Belinda peeking over from a distance, her eyes full of curiosity.

Zhou Jinru spread his hands and said, "It's a pity that she refuses to forgive me."

"That's your business."

Belinda didn't ask too many questions. Her mission today was to be a guide, not a very curious cat.

"Where do we go next?"

Zhou Jinru adjusted his mood and cleared his throat: "Look for a Dulin girl named Myrtle. I saw her in the mining area."

"How many girls have you messed with?"

Zhou Jinru: "...No, we just knew each other before. It's not what you think."

Belinda pouted. Jingzhe's behavior just now didn't look like that of ordinary friends. There was also Vina who liked to hold a hammer, and Myrtle who was about to meet...

The process of finding Myrtle was a bit tortuous. They went to the mining area from another direction, but found that the road was blocked halfway, so they had to turn back and take a mine cart from the main city.

It was the Dulin tribe who originally built the underground city, so as a Dulin tribe, Myrtle received great respect. Apart from the fact that she only wanted to live in the mining area, she basically had no troubles in life.

If Seria was used to Zhou Jinru's arrival and Jingzhe guessed that he would go find her, then Myrtle's behavior was very surprising.

She was startled by Zhou Jinru's sudden appearance...

"Wow, Doctor, you're alive again!"

Zhou Jinru took a deep breath. He had never died at all, so how could he come back to life?

Moreover, Seria and Jingzhe always use the word "you" to refer to him, and never mention the word "doctor".

"Oh, I forgot, a doctor is not a doctor."

Myrtle is still holding her black flag, but the in-game tablecloth is nowhere to be found.

She once briefly mentioned Ms. Dawson, and Zhou Jinru guessed that the woman who might have spoken to him was the name Myrtle mentioned.

"Who is Ms. Dawson?"

"I don't know, I've never seen her."

"Are you really sure it's Dawson?"

"Yes, I'm sure."

"She asked you to pass this black flag to me?"

"The black flag is for the doctor, but the doctor is not a doctor, so holding the black flag is useless."

Facing the clueless Myrtle, Zhou Jinru took the black flag from her hand with a headache and observed it carefully.

The black fabric of the flag is very ordinary, and there is nothing special about it. The spear is two meters long, just an ordinary spear.

It was particularly difficult for the little Myrtle to pick it up. She claimed that she had gone through a lot of training and was now able to use it freely.

Zhou Jinru felt that Myrtle was just like Hongdou. Hongdou's spear was not taken advantage of at first. Later, when he became more proficient, he was able to drive her away like an arm. She even became invincible in a 300-round battle with Brother Red Knife in the Satellite City.

The center of the black flag seems to be some kind of totem, not a pirate skeleton, so there won't be any jackdaw either.

Since there was really no information to be obtained, Zhou Jinru had no choice but to return the black flag to Myrtle. He sat with the Dulin girl for a while and learned that there were only a few acquaintances of theirs in the underground city, and the others

Either they have been sacrificed or they are missing.

"Where was Dr. Kelsey back then?"

Zhou Jinru was quite curious about what Kelsey had done. He had never had the chance to ask before, but now facing Myrtle, he finally expressed his doubts.

"Dr. Kelsey disappeared a long time ago. We couldn't find her. Amiya said she must still be alive. Unfortunately, we didn't see her until the Rhode Island land speeder was destroyed."

Myrtle sat cross-legged on the floor, leaning on Zhou Jinru's shoulder, and fell asleep unconsciously.

After a long time, she finally woke up, wiped the saliva from the corner of her mouth, and hugged Zhou Jinru beside her: "Doctor, won't you leave us now?"

"I never left, I was always here."

Zhou Jinru touched Myrtle's hair and felt her body temperature. He thought that he needed to speed up the search for the operator.

They finally separated in front of the mining area. On the way back to the main city, Zhou Jinru asked Belinda beside him: "Are there other underground cities nearby?"

Belinda nodded and said: "Yes, there are underground cities in our four directions, but the rules of some cities are so strict that during the day, there are often escapees coming to seek refuge. However, the Diamond Queen sometimes joins others.

Underground city alliance, after all, the insect swarm on the surface is our biggest enemy."
