It's better to imagine a boyfriend than to attack the villain

Chapter 155 Back to the World 1: Prepare for a Rainy Day

"After that, Lu Qingshi had more and more opportunities to interact with us. I don't know how he figured out I was a mermaid. Anyway, he always took advantage of you not being home to PUA me and lure me into the outside world."

Chao Zhuyi flipped to the next picture, which showed a group of tattooed men. "These guys are the ones who beat us to death in our previous life. It's a pity that I don't know the power behind them."

Thinking of the scene of death in his previous life, Chao Zhuyi couldn't help but tremble all over.

Xiao Minji gently held her in his arms and silently patted her back to comfort her.

It took a long time for Chao Zhuyi to come out of the memories of her previous life. She adjusted her mood and continued to flip through the portraits.

The person in the new painting was wearing black clothes and a hood, and his face could not be seen clearly. Only the fish-scale brooch on his clothes was shining with a cold light.

"In my previous life, I didn't have many opportunities to interact with the outside world. This is the leader of a very mysterious organization. He will probably be active on the Star Network in two years. Every day's news is about a murder case."

"You and Xie Yingzhen have been tracking him down, but you haven't been able to catch him. I was also involved at the time, causing you a lot of trouble."

Xie Yingzhen is one of the candidates for the executive officer of Area C, and is also Xiao Minji's childhood friend and comrade-in-arms.

The head of each district is called the executive officer, who is the head of the political side. The head of the military is called the marshal, and under the marshal is the commander.

Xiao Minji said nothing, but just raised his hand and rubbed her hair.

Chao Zhuyi turned to the last portrait. Xiao Minji was particularly familiar with the person this time, and his eyes suddenly became sharp.

"In your previous life, even though I was courting death and causing you to fail in your bid for the Interstellar Alliance Commander position, you still managed to break in with your absolute strength. He helped you a lot and even kicked Chi Guiyuan off and pushed you up."

One of the presidents of the LETTER Interstellar Alliance and representative of Area C, Ye Dianqiu.

"I put him last because his stance is uncertain. He seems to have been providing you with support and has made a lot of contributions to Area C. But I also stumbled upon him contacting that mysterious organization and having a very pleasant conversation with the leader."

Xiao Minji lowered his eyes, with a dark look in his eyes.

Chao Zhuyi finished talking about all the key figures and events that needed attention in the previous life, and sat quietly aside waiting for Xiao Minji to digest it.

Xiao Minji carefully analyzed the current situation in his mind. He looked at Chao Zhuyi steadily. He knew that Xiaoyu had been staying at home and had no contact with the outside world. Naturally, he understood that she had come to him to confess because she had no other choice.

And they do need to plan ahead.

He raised his hand and rubbed her head, his tone apologetic: "I didn't think it through. I thought I could protect you by hiding you at home, but I forgot that the outside world is changing rapidly and people's hearts are unpredictable."

Chao Zhuyi lowered his head and picked at his fingers. "Actually, I have problems too. You didn't forbid me to go out. It's just that I'm too lazy to go out and refuse to interact with society."

She raised her head, reached out and grabbed Xiao Minji's arm, looking at him with sparkling eyes, "Hehe, Commander Xiao, you are knowledgeable and experienced, please prepare for a rainy day. I really don't have any tricks!"

Xiao Minji enjoyed the sparkling look in her eyes as she admired him. "There's an action in Ying Zhen's campaign plan. You can try it."

"What is it? Something to do with mermaids?"

"It's related, but not limited to mermaids. It's a specialized study of all marine paleontology. Many remains and fossils of marine paleontology have been unearthed, and those biologists and oceanographers are ready to move. Without guidance and restraint, they're bound to cause unrest."

"Protecting the marine ecological environment is one of the campaign goals of executive candidates, and it's a challenging task. We should be willing to challenge ourselves."

Chao Zhuyi shook his arm excitedly, "I want to go, I want to go!"

"Don't worry." Xiao Minji patted the back of her hand and soothed her, "I'll discuss it with him and ask him to come over tomorrow to talk. Also, whether you're willing to tell him about your rebirth or not, I respect your decision."

Chao Zhuyi nodded without hesitation, "Of course! Xie Yingzhen can say it. Besides, in his previous life, he lost his official hat and almost died in order to help us... I owe him a lot."

She didn't dare to go into too much detail. The brotherhood between Xie Yingzhen and Xiao Minji was unmatched. Even after knowing that she was a mermaid in her previous life, his attitude did not change. Xiao Minji wanted to protect her, and he did his best to protect her. Because he stood on their side, he was forced to step down from the position of executive by the powerful people in District C.

Xie Yingzhen has always advocated the harmonious coexistence of humans and marine ancient creatures, but he could not resist the desire of those unscrupulous people for the era of superpowers. He suffered countless assassinations and open attacks, and in the end he was almost killed in the blink of an eye as soon as he showed his head.

Finally, when he was covering her and Xiao Minji's escape, he was captured by those researchers. Judging from the inhumane and crazy behavior of those researchers, the ending was probably not going to be good.

After thinking it over again and again, Chao Zhuyi decided to tell Xie Yingzhen's ending. There was no need to hide it. After telling it, the more details he could get about his previous life, the more beneficial it would be for their current situation.

So the next day, the couple got a good friend named Xie Yingzhen, who fell on the sofa and doubted his life.

Xie Yingzhen was shocked, Xie Yingzhen couldn't believe it, Xie Yingzhen was horrified, and pointed at Chao Zhuyi with trembling fingers.

"Sister-in-law, a mermaid?"

Chao Zhuyi nodded.

"Rebirth?"

Xiao Minji nodded.

"Are we all dead?" Xie Yingzhen pointed at himself.

The young couple nodded.

It took Xie Yingzhen a long time to accept these "past life" facts.

Xiao Minji suggested to him that Chao Zhuyi join his marine paleontology research and protection program.

"The first station for the Marine Paleontology Conservation Program is the EULB Marine Biology Research Institute at Chongqing University. As long as my sister-in-law can pass the entrance exam and stand out in the selection competition in three months, she can join the program."

Xie Yingzhen did not directly agree to Chao Zhuyi's joining, which was unfair to other researchers.

Chao Zhuyi had no objection. "Three months, I can do it."

Education in the LETTER universe is particularly developed, and knowledge is changing with each passing day. Families with the conditions can also screen out excellent genes and give birth to little geniuses.

Schools vary widely, and entrance exams and some large district exams are held monthly. There are no age restrictions or restrictions on how many times you can take the exam; as long as you pass, you're accepted. If you fail one month, you can try again the next. If you still fail, you can try again. Cheat scores are also permitted. If you're not satisfied with your results, you can apply for a cheat sheet until you achieve a satisfactory score.

The school uniformly implements a credit system. Except for the credits for basic courses, all other credits are extracurricular credits. If you do not want to take basic courses, that is fine. You only need to take one more test than other students who take the course. If you reach an excellent score, you can apply to the school for exemption from classes.

Once students have accumulated enough credits, they can apply for the graduation exam and receive their diploma. Some top scorers can spend as little as a month on campus, practically graduating the day they enroll.

Except for specially arranged exams, all other exams are held monthly, so Chao Zhuyi has three exam opportunities before the researcher selection competition. Not only does she have to be admitted to Chongming University and join the EULB Institute of Marine Biology, she also has to obtain half of the credits required for graduation while in school to be eligible to participate in the selection competition.
