Target Detected (1)

The system saw that she finally looked like she was going to stop, but before it could sigh in relief, Xiaoman timidly asked, What is an encyclopedia?

The system ignored her and coaxed, Host, its already late. Let me sing you a lullaby.

As it said that, it picked a lullaby from its music library and played it in her mind.

Taking care of children was tiring. The system wished it could sigh.

After being up all day, Jiang Xiaoman was also feeling tired, so after a while, she gave up on questioning the system and quietly went to sleep.

The system managed to escape.

A few days later, Jiang Xing said that he was going to do a physical examination and apply for a medical certificate.

Jiang Xiumei told him to do another check-up on his stomach wound at the hospital on the way. Although he said that it had already healed well and there was nothing wrong anymore, she kept pestering him so he had to agree to give her peace of mind.

Xiaoman, do you want to come with me? Jiang Xing casually asked.

When he was young, the children were always happy to follow when the adults went out. There was barely any entertainment back then, so even going out to visit relatives was considered fun.

He thought that Xiaoman would be happy to come with him. He never thought that she would hold her fingers and thought seriously for a while, before wrinkling her face and sobbed, I I dont have time. I have to go to school to listen to Teacher Tangs lessons. If I didnt go, Teacher Tang would ask.

Jiang Xiaoman was not a quiet child and liked to play, but she was also serious and knew to keep her words. She promised Teacher Tang, so she couldnt go back on it now.

Her face crumpled and she was about to start crying.

Jiang Xiumei said, Its okay, just go with your uncle. Its okay not to go for one day. Teacher Tang also said that you can ask for leave if you have something to do. Ill go to school and tell him, he wont blame you.

Really?

Really.

Jiang Xiaoman was so happy that she looked like she just came back from death, and happily went out with her uncle.

She was also wearing the tiger hat today, not willing to take it off.

Jiang Xing went silent for a while, then rubbed her little head. Okay, after I come out of the hospital, I will take you to get a haircut.

I dont want to get a haircut! Jiang Xiaoman looked like she just met her biggest foe.

Jiang Xing said. Well get your hair styled. I promise that after the cut, it will look cuter and more beautiful.

Jiang Xiaoman reluctantly agreed. Okay then.

The road leading out of the village was rough. Every time she rode in the car, her stomach felt like the tossing sea. It was uncomfortable.

She endured the discomfort, her little head leaning on her uncles shoulder while feeling lethargic. Her hair was standing up, and she ignored that her favorite hair was becoming messy.

The weather was very hot, Jiang Xing took her tiger hat off and fanned her with it when he saw sweat dripping from her forehead.

It was already noon by the time they got off the bus.

Jiang Xing carried her to the city hospital. He went in to check up his wound first, then went to do the physical examination.

Xiaoman was a little heavy, and he was holding a lot of things in his hands. It wasnt long before he started becoming too tired.

He had no choice but to put her down and told her. Wait here for uncle and dont run around, okay? Remember what I taught you. Dont go with strangers, and if anything happened shout out and call for me. I will be inside, as soon as you shout I will rush outside.

Jiang Xiaoman nodded.

She wasnt that stupid.

Grandma, Uncle and even the system had all already taught her about these things so much that it felt like webs were growing on her ears.

Jiang Xing didnt say anything more and went inside to stand in line.

Jiang Xiaoman was bored and looked left and right, but didnt find anything interesting.The hospital was so boring, she wouldnt have come if she knew.

Uncle and Grandma had to stay at the hospital so long back then, it mustve been very uncomfortable?

Jiang Xiaoman felt some pity and decided to be more kind to Uncle after they got back home.

At that moment, the system that had been quiet suddenly said. Host, please move towards the emergency exit ahead.

Jiang Xiaoman vigilantly said. What for? Uncle told me not to run around.

Target detected. Host, please go and verify it. The system was a little anxious because Jiang Xiaoman was unwilling to go, and had to use points to coax her into action.

Task: Find the Target

Reward: 2 points

Seeing points to be had, Xiaoman reluctantly walked over.
