With the traffic base of Moyu Store, the Weibo of the stock god Lao Jiang quickly became a hot search.
The comment section has gone crazy, with everyone asking if it’s true or not.
"Everyone should be more rational and stop being so magical when it comes to the Magic Fish Shop. The video is definitely fake and is undoubtedly a hype."
"Someone has checked it out, and there is no sign of synthesis in the video, so it is very likely to be real."
"Why do I feel like the world has suddenly become science fiction? Do superpowers really exist?"
"It's fake! Anyone who believes it is an idiot! I strongly suspect that the Magic Fish Shop is directing and performing this drama!"
"If eating it regularly gives you super powers, guess whether God Si has any super powers?"
"Ahhh!!!! Superpower God! He's so cool that I'm crying!"
"No more words, I'm already writing my resignation report. I'm going to wait in the Magic Fish Shop. As long as you have superpowers, who would still want to go to work?!"
"Lord, I've already skipped work to queue up, I can definitely eat at the Magic Fish Shop today!"
"… "
The customers of the Magic Fish Shop, whose worldviews had been reshaped, were also very excited after watching the video and commenting. Others were skeptical, but they had seen it with their own eyes. They didn’t know whether Boss Lin had superpowers, but the other person who controlled the monster remotely definitely had superpowers!
If they can gain super powers just by eating at the Magic Fish Shop a few more times, then what are they waiting for? They must go eat it!!!
However, before they could finish being excited, all discussions related to the video disappeared.
The stock god Lao Jiang was even directly blocked.
Everyone: “???!!!!!!!!!!!!”
The customers of the Magic Fish Shop who knew the content cried out in their hearts: It’s over, it’s over, they are done, they won’t let the situation develop to this extent!
Lin Jiu soon received a call from Shi Shuqing, who wanted him to clarify the matter on Weibo to avoid causing unrest.
Lin Jiu was brushing his teeth and asked vaguely, "Is that person really a power-enhancing person?"
Shi Shuqing: "Yes, the people have been taken to the base."
Lin Jiu responded and continued brushing his teeth.
Shi Shuqing: "Do you have any impression of him? Do you remember how many times he went to the store to eat and what he ordered each time?"
Lin Jiu didn't answer immediately. He rinsed his mouth and washed his face, then walked out of the bathroom with the dishwasher.
Lin Jiu asked the Kitchen God System to retrieve all the dining information of this person.
"I spent seven times in the store in total. I had three large portions of seafood rice, two servings of crab roe congee and sashimi platter, one serving of fresh shrimp congee and grilled shrimp legs, and one 6,998 yuan set meal." Lin Jiu reported to him truthfully.
Shi Shuqing took notes, paused for a moment and said, "Now it is basically confirmed that your food can directly turn people into enhanced humans."
This is safer than taking risks by trying radiation, and easier than forcibly raising the RT value again and again. They are working so hard to make progress on a problem that can be solved by eating some good food.
Lin Jiu said: "There are so many customers in the Magic Fish Shop, but only three of them have truly become enhanced humans."
Lin Jiu heard Shi Shuqing's inhalation, "I really hope you can take some time to visit the base and see how many enhanced people we have after all our efforts."
Lin Jiu: “…”
Feeling that Shi Shuqing was forcibly holding back from going berserk, Lin Jiu wisely shut up.
The incident involved the Magic Fish Shop. When the video went viral and sparked discussion across the entire network, Lin Jiu's Weibo could not be calm. Countless people flocked to his Weibo to ask if this incident was true.
Lin Jiu posted his third Weibo post today.
Lin Jiuv: "I run a seafood restaurant, not a superpower manufacturing plant. When you have self-doubt, please recite this motto in your heart: Don't believe in rumors, don't spread rumors, and believe in science."
Netizens who have been waiting for a long time: "… "
"Why did I not believe it before, but after reading Boss Lin's rumor-busting statement, I suddenly began to believe it was true?"
"Boss Lin's denial failed to convince me, but made me even more hesitant."
"Practice makes perfect. Rather than guessing here, I decided to try it myself. I will publish the results of the practice truthfully on Weibo."
"I agree with you, I want to try it myself!"
Lin Jiu quit Weibo and stopped paying attention to this matter.
There was a missed call last night. It was from Si Xu, but he fell asleep and didn't hear it.
After hesitating for a while, Lin Jiu sent a message to Si Xu, saying that he was too tired last night and forgot to call him.
Si Xu should be busy, there is no news.
Lin Jiu packed up and rode his bike to the store. There were a lot of people gathered at the door. Lin Jiu had already expected this situation.
Seeing Lin Jiu passing by, someone couldn't wait to ask: "Boss Lin, can the food in this small shop really give you super powers?"
Lin Jiu put the bicycle next to the window and asked, "What do you think I can answer you?"
"Yes or no, just one word!" a customer shouted proudly.
Lin Jiu: “No.”
"Is the online rumor true? Is the person who is suspected to have superpowers a customer of the store?"
Lin Jiu was about to explain that he couldn't clearly understand why he met so many people every day and it was impossible for him to remember everyone, but a customer answered for him.
"That person does often eat at the Magic Fish Restaurant. I have met him twice."
Someone immediately asked curiously: "So you often eat here? Don't you think it's special?"
"I've had it a few times, but I don't feel anything special right now. If I have to say, it might be because my body has gotten better. There was a flu outbreak a while ago, and many people around me caught colds and had fevers, but I, who catch colds easily, didn't get any symptoms at all. Is this also special?"
Lin Jiu listened to their discussion and said, "Don't wait if you can't get a seat. Please come earlier next time."
Lin Jiu opened the door and entered the store, taking out a small blackboard. The menu was still 6998 yuan per person, and this price would not change for the time being.
Lunch is ready, please come in.
Two people sat down at the bar. Lin Jiu was not curious at all until the other party took the initiative to say hello.
"Hi, long time no see."
Lin Jiu looked up and met a pair of big eyes. He had just seen this face on the Internet two days ago.
It’s Qiu Yuqian.
She hasn't changed much, she still loves to laugh, her dyed hair is tied into a bun, she has light makeup, and she wears a white down jacket, she looks pure and beautiful.
"Hello, I'm Xixi's agent, Yu Shan."
Yu Shan stood up, smiling, and stretched out her hand. But she stopped halfway because Lin Jiu was peeling shrimps and she was busy, so she had to put the hand away herself.
"Hello." Lin Jiu just glanced at them without much reaction and concentrated on preparing food again.
Yu Shan sat down again and winked at Qiu Yuqian. Qiu Yuqian was watching Lin Jiu prepare the ingredients and did not notice the agent's hint.
"I never realized before that you have such a good talent. You've wasted several years in the circle. I think this food is not suitable for you." Qiu Yuqian's attitude was very confident, as if she didn't care about the right and wrong of the Internet at all.
Lin Jiu didn't say anything and laid out the peeled prawns one by one.
A female customer sitting next to Qiu Yuqian glanced at her from time to time, and it was unclear whether she recognized her.
Qiu Yuqian was not very popular to begin with, and she had not produced any works in the past two years. Almost no one knew her except her fans. After being sold to Fengshuo, the company was arranging a comeback for her. As a result, netizens sent Lin Jiu, a big traffic star, to her.
Now not only Lin Jiu, but even Si Shen has noticed her.
No matter whether Si Shen's Weibo is attacking her or what, as long as there is a response, it will become Qiu Yuqian's popularity. The gap in status between them is too big. Even if fans are curious and go to dig up a person named Qiu Yuqian, that will also be traffic.
Qiu Yuqian didn't seem to care about Lin Jiu's attitude, and continued: "In just a few years, things have changed. You retired, Ling Chen was bought by Huasheng, Huo Wei is now in the same company as me, and he is also in Fengshuo."
Qiu Yuqian was smart enough not to mention Duan Chengzhou.
Lin Jiu was busy but was very surprised. This time he was either recuperating or preparing for the New Year banquet, and he didn't pay much attention to the news about Ling Chen and Huo Wei. He didn't expect that they were also sold out.
Qiu Yuqian sneered, "Chuangxing is now just an empty shell. Artists with a little potential have either been sold or poached. It's too difficult for Chuangxing to make a comeback."
Lin Jiu remained silent. He had no interest in reminiscing about the past with someone he was not very familiar with. Even if Huo Wei stood in front of him and chattered non-stop, he might not pay any attention to him.
Yu Shan kicked Qiu Yuqian under the bar, hinting to her to say something useful. This place was not suitable for conversation. It would be better if she could ask Lin Jiu to meet alone. It would be mutually beneficial for everyone, and Lin Jiu should not refuse.
Qiu Yuqian moved her legs calmly and sighed, "What a pity for Sister Wen. She is very ill, don't you know?"
Lin Jiu finally responded and looked up at Qiu Yuqian, "What's wrong?"
Qiu Yuqian said sadly: "Breast cancer. I heard she is receiving treatment. I don't know how she is doing."
This time, Lin Jiu vaguely heard that there was something wrong with the words, and asked Jiang Xiwen about it, but she didn't say anything.
Lin Jiu: "Which hospital is she in?"
Qiu Yuqian: "Central Hospital, if you want to go see her, can I go with you? When I was in the company, Sister Wen also took good care of me."
Lin Jiu glanced at her and said nothing.
Qiu Yuqian explained: "I just heard about it a few days ago. I was just about to take some time to visit her. Sister Wen would be very happy to see us."
Lin Jiu didn't even raise his head, "No need."
Yu Shan immediately said: "Our car is outside, it's very convenient to go there..."
Lin Jiu picked up the prepared plate and sent it to the first table.
After Lin Jiu finished speaking, Yu Shan wanted to say something else, but Lin Jiu interrupted her coldly, "Please don't interfere with my work."
Yu Shan: “…”
He could only shut up and kicked Qiu Yuqian, hoping that she would say something, but Qiu Yuqian did not speak.
The lunch was delicious, but Qiu Yuxi and Yu Shan were eating absent-mindedly. They always wanted to find a chance to talk to Lin Jiu, but Lin Jiu remained silent.
He sent a message to Si Xu, asking if he needed lunch prepared for him, but he waited for a long time but received no response.
He was a little worried, so he went out and called Si Xu, but the phone was out of service area.
Lin Jiu called Jiang Ge and luckily he was able to get through. He then said that he couldn't get through to Si Xu and that the phone was out of service area. He asked Jiang Ge if he knew where Si Xu had gone.
Jiang Ge was very experienced with "out of service area" and told Lin Jiusu that he should have gone to the enhanced human base.
Lin Jiu is Jiang Ge's lover, so it is not against the rules for Jiang Ge to tell him about the base.
Lin Jiu felt relieved when he knew that Si Xu had gone. Si Xu went to the base at this time, probably for a physical examination.
After hanging up the phone, Qiu Yuqian turned around and stood at the door looking at him.
Lin Jiu frowned, "What's the matter?"
Qiu Yuqian walked out and said, "My agent wants to talk to you."
"What to talk about? I don't think there is anything to talk about."
Lin Jiu turned around and was about to leave. Qiu Yuqian subconsciously tried to pull him, but Lin Jiu took a step back and kept some distance.
"Please keep your distance. I don't want to cause misunderstandings among netizens anymore."
Qiu Yuqian opened her mouth and said after a while, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry about the online incident. The Weibo post last night was posted by Sister Shan. I don't mind. If necessary, I can delete it."
Lin Jiu: "It's your freedom to delete it or not. It has nothing to do with me."
Qiu Yuqian's smile was a little forced. "I know this kind of behavior is very annoying. I came here today mainly to apologize to you. I also want to ask you if we can cooperate once. Feng Shuo is preparing for my comeback, and I want to borrow your traffic..."
"Sorry, I won't lend it to you." Lin Jiu felt that he had made himself clear, so he stepped into the store and added, "If you feel annoyed, don't do it anymore. I'm in a bad mood right now."
Lin Jiu opened the door and entered the store, where he met Yu Shan standing inside. She was apparently giving them a chance to talk alone.
Until the end of lunch, Lin Jiu didn't say another word to them.
After Lin Jiu cleaned up the shop, he called Si Xu, but the phone was still out of service area, so he should not have left yet.
Lin Jiu was a little confused. Where exactly was the enhanced human base built? Was there no signal inside
Lin Jiu called Jiang Xiwen and asked her about the specific ward.
Jiang Xiwen still wanted to play dumb, "What ward?"
Lin Jiu: "I know you are sick and in hospital. Which floor and ward are you in?"
Jiang Xiwen was silent for a long time, then told the ward number.
Lin Jiulou went to the super smart kitchen, caught an invisible fish, and started killing the fish.
These five invisible fish were too precious. Lin Jiu originally planned to use them as Si Xu's food. However, Sister Wen also needed this kind of fish, so Lin Jiu decided to give one to Sister Wen and leave the remaining four for Si Xu.
The shape of the invisible fish is very similar to that of the moon fish, but its color is much brighter than that of the moon fish. Invisible fish can be big or small. The five that Lin Jiu caught were of varying sizes, some big and some small. Lin Jiu caught a small one.
The invisible fish realized that it couldn't escape and could only turn invisible to save its life. As a result, Lin Jiu relied on his senses throughout the whole process of killing the fish. It was as if he was killing a ball of air. After a long time of struggling, he finally processed the invisible fish and cut off all the fish meat. He was reluctant to give the fish head and bones directly to the system, as he planned to make soup.
Lin Jiu took out two small incubators and divided the invisible fish meat into two portions, one for Sister Wen and one for Si Xu. If Si Xu hadn't recovered after going to the hospital, he would go to the enhanced human base to check on him and deliver a meal.
Lin Jiu packed up and took a taxi to the hospital.
Just after getting off the car and walking not far, the sound of high heels hitting the ground quickly was heard behind him. Lin Jiu glanced back and then paused.
Qiu Yuqian chased after him holding a bouquet of flowers, smiling brightly, "Let's go together."
Lin Jiu stopped and asked, "What do you mean? Are you forcing me to borrow it?"
Qiu Yuqian lowered her eyelashes, feeling a little overwhelmed.
Yu Shan quickly followed him, "Feng Shuo is willing to pay, you name the price."
Lin Jiu sneered, "Do you think I look like I'm short of money?"
Qiu Yuqian: “…”
Yu Shan: “…”
Lin Jiu looked around and said, "Have you arranged for the paparazzi to take pictures? I told you that I'm in a bad mood right now. If you dare to do anything, I will break up with you. When I was an artist, my character was not high. Now that I've retired, I'm more free. You can decide for yourself."
After Lin Jiu finished speaking, he turned and left.
Qiu Yuqian thought for a long time, then followed slowly behind, with a distance between them.
Lin Jiu ignored her and went to Jiang Xiwen's ward.
Jiang Xiwen was staying in a single room, sitting alone on the bed watching TV. She looked no different from when Lin Jiu first met her, except that her complexion looked a little worse, but everything else was fine.
She was wearing a loose hospital gown with a hose extending from one side of the gown. Blood was flowing from the hose into a bag at the other end. She must have undergone surgery.
The door was not closed, so Lin Jiu knocked twice gently.
Jiang Xiwen turned her head and saw Lin Jiu, and the first thing she said was, "How did you know that I was sick?"
When he looked up, he saw Qiu Yuqian following behind him, "Why are you two together?"
"I... I just happened to see Sister Wen." Qiu Yuqian didn't dare to say "we met by chance". Jiang Xiwen had been an agent for so many years, and she knew some things too well.
Lin Jiu walked to the bedside and put down the small incubator. "I don't think she is with me."
Qiu Yuqian: “…”
Jiang Xiwen glanced at them and said, "I really don't want anyone I know to see me like this. How did you know that I was sick?"
Qiu Yuqian paused and said, "I said that. Lin Jiu didn't say that."
Jiang Xiwen looked at her and said after a while: "Did Yi Ning tell you? You were all sold to Fengshuo, and now it seems that your relationship is good. You are being excluded in the new company. Do you want to stick together for warmth?"
Qiu Yuqian was a little embarrassed. Yi Ning and Jiang Xiwen had a falling out, and everyone in the company knew about it. Jiang Xiwen didn't like Yi Ning, but she was on good terms with Yi Ning and even followed Lin Jiu around. She felt a little embarrassed.
"I'm sorry, Sister Wen..."
"There's nothing to be sorry about. She now wishes the whole world knew that I had cancer and was dying. I'm not surprised at all that she told you. What surprised me was that you would come to see me in person." Jiang Xiwen said meaningfully.
Jiang Xiwen's surgery was completed a few days ago. Although she was still in the hospital, she was still connected to the Internet. She knew a little about the Internet, so she found it strange to see them spending time together.
Lin Jiu glanced around the ward and asked, "Is there a surveillance camera in the ward? I brought some food with me, but I'm afraid I'll be caught by the doctor."
Jiang Xiwen: “…No.”
Jiang Xiwen: "Did you bring any prohibited items?"
Lin Jiu touched his nose and said, "I brought some fish fillets with me."
Jiang Xiwen was silent for a moment, "Do you think I can eat it?"
Lin Jiu nodded, "You can eat it, but you have to eat it secretly. I'm afraid the doctor will think I'm going to murder you."
Jiang Xiwen: "I think so too."
Lin Jiu held a small incubator in his hand and asked, "Do you want to eat?"
Jiang Xiwen: "Eat it. It's so rare to eat the fish fillets from the Magic Fish Shop. It would be stupid not to eat it."
Lin Jiu opened the lid and was about to take out the invisible fish fillet when he turned his head to look at Qiu Yuqian, his meaning was very clear.
Qiu Yuqian was left out and felt very embarrassed. Then she saw Lin Jiu and Jiang Xiwen looking at her and she could not stay any longer.
"I, I have something else to do, so I'll leave first." Qiu Yuqian put down the flowers and left in a hurry.
Lin Jiu went to lock the door, and then brought out the invisible fish fillet.
Jiang Xiwen: “…”
All I saw was a layer of broken ice, with nothing else underneath.
Jiang Xiwen: "Let me eat ice?"
"Eat fish." Lin Jiu picked up the chopsticks and pressed on the ice layer. The chopsticks did not touch the broken ice. It seemed that there was a layer of transparent substance on the ice.
Lin Jiu tried to pick it up with chopsticks, but they either slipped or stuck into the crushed ice, so he simply gave up the chopsticks and handed Jiang Xiwen a disposable condom.
"Catch it with your hands."
Jiang Xiwen put on a pair of gloves and touched the ice. She felt something soft and cool. She picked up a piece and looked at it carefully. It turned out that the thing inside was not just transparent at all. It was invisible and could easily blend into the environment, making it invisible.
She put the invisible fish meat into her mouth. It had the texture of fish fillet, icy, delicate and smooth. It melted in her mouth and was very fragrant!
Jiang Xiwen nodded continuously, "It's really fish, very delicious."
Jiang Xiwen quickly finished a portion of invisible fish, raised her chin and indicated a second portion.
Lin Jiu: "This is not yours."
Jiang Xiwen is not a greedy person. "What kind of fish is this? It's delicious."
Lin Jiu: "Invisible fish can improve immunity and destroy cancer cells. It should be effective after eating it a few times."
Jiang Xiwen: “…”
Jiang Xiwen: "I'm really curious about where these strange ingredients come from."
Lin Jiu: "Don't worry about where it comes from, as long as it works."
Lin Jiu stayed at Jiang Xiwen's place for more than an hour. It was already past three in the afternoon. He took out his mobile phone and was about to call Si Xu again when Si Xu called.
Lin Jiu answered the call, "Have you left yet?"
Si Xu's low voice came over the phone, "I'm at the hospital entrance, get off."
Si Xu seemed to be in a bad mood. Lin Jiu was worried about his test results, so he didn't delay, said goodbye to Jiang Xiwen, and ran away with the small incubator.
