Survival game: My plug-ins can be superimposed

"Yeah, I understand." The sculpture nodded obediently.

"Where's my food?" Zhao Xun noticed early on that the sculpture's hands were empty, and it was only at this time that he had time to ask.

"When the man came over before, I heard footsteps in the distance. In order not to be discovered by him, I put your food on the bamboo." The sculpture pointed directly in front of itself.

The tops of the two bamboos are close to each other, and the bamboo leaves are all intertwined with each other to form a network, which just holds the brown paper bag.

It's late at night, even if you look up, it's hard to notice that there's something on it without looking carefully.

Zhao Xun stood below and shook the bamboo, spreading the bamboo leaves above. The brown paper bag fell down, and he caught it smoothly.

The brown paper bag was strong, without any damage, and the food was also in good condition.

Zhao Xun said goodbye to the sculpture in a good mood, climbed over the wall and ran out of the Duke's Mansion.

When I returned to Xiao Ai's house, it was already 2:43 in the night.

Zhao Xun saw Xiao Ai sitting in the bedroom in a daze with a blank look on his face.

Suddenly seeing Zhao Xun coming back, Xiao Ai stood up subconsciously, and then smiled: "You're back!"

"What's wrong?" Zhao Xun noticed that Xiao Ai was in a low mood.

"It's not a big deal," Xiao Ai said, pretending to be relaxed. "The other side of the flower field said that the performance has not been good recently and there are too many people doing the work, so they fired me."

Hearing this, Zhao Xun showed a look of understanding.

It seems that the Duke is ready to take action against Xiao Ai.

When Xiao Ai can't find a job anywhere and can't support herself, she will naturally have to work as a maid in the Duke's Palace, the only place that can accommodate her.

In the entire town, only the Duke's power background can accomplish this kind of thing.

"Don't worry too much, maybe you can find a new job tomorrow." Zhao Xun comforted.

"Well, I think so too. There are quite a lot of jobs in the small town." Xiao Ai encouraged herself, "I will definitely be able to find other jobs that are suitable for me!"

Although she did not understand the deeper meaning of Zhao Xun's words, she was optimistic by nature and did not get depressed because of being fired.

"By the way, why did you come back so late today?" Xiao Ai looked at the brown paper bag and some documents in Zhao Xun's hand and asked curiously, "I thought you had found a better place to live and wouldn't come back."

"You are the only one willing to take me in. Where else can I go?" Zhao Xun smiled, he opened the brown paper bag, took out a piece of butter bread from it and handed it to Xiao Ai, "I heard that tonight the Duke They would treat the residents of the town to dinner, so I went.”

"Did you get this from the Duke's Mansion?" Xiao Ai stared, "The Duke is so generous. He not only invited me to dinner, but also allowed him to take away so much food."

A big bag, enough for her to eat for at least three days.

"How could the Duke be so generous?" Zhao Xun laughed softly, "I took it myself."

Xiao Ai's eyes widened even more: "Is this...is this okay?"

"Eat, the Duke is so rich, he can't trouble us for a few pieces of bread." Zhao Xun put the butter bread into Xiao Ai's hand.

Even if the Duke is really stingy and wants to cause trouble for them over this matter, he won't have the chance to do so tomorrow.

If the Duke is killed by a short-haired woman, naturally nothing can be done.

If the Duke is rescued by a strong man, he will have to worry about his reputation tomorrow and will not care about such a trivial matter.

Just at this time, Xiao Ai's stomach growled twice.

She lowered her eyelashes sheepishly: "Thank you."

After she was fired from the flower field, she felt a little depressed. Her plan to sell flowers was also interrupted, so she had to come back early.

She hadn't eaten anything all day.

Now smelling the aroma of butter, I really feel a little hungry.

She stopped being polite and started eating with big mouthfuls.

Zhao Xun put the pile of documents on the bedside table and read them carefully page by page by the dim light of the oil lamp.

According to this information, the death of Ruby's parents was indeed an accident, and the Duke took Ruby in simply to create a good reputation for himself in the town.

But Ruby grew up to be so beautiful that the Duke had his own thoughts.

It was from that time that the Duke was inspired by Ruby.

Every time he saw a girl he liked, he would arrange to get her into the Duke's palace as a maid, and then find an opportunity to sleep with her.

In order to avoid getting into trouble, he directly planned to kill the other person's family, turning the girl into an orphan with no one to rely on, and he could do whatever he wanted.

Xiao Ai's parents are like this.

As for why the Duke delayed taking action against Xiao Ai for more than a month, although it was not written in the document, Zhao Xun could guess it.

First, Xiao Ai is not as young as Ruby was. She has her own job, and it takes some effort to control her.

Second, in order to deal with Ruby's matter, the Duke could only keep a low profile for the time being, so as not to cause trouble between the two parties and be too busy.

Third, the Duke has a new favorite, Tiantian, so his interest in Xiao Ai is not so urgent.

In short, Xiao Ai is lucky among misfortunes.

Zhao Xun asked Xiao Ai to borrow a pen and paper, then selected the key parts of the information and copied them down.

There is no copy machine in this world, so he can only copy by hand.

Fortunately, he only had to copy it once.

Mainly to prevent the original from being destroyed, which would prevent his hidden mission from being completed.

To be honest, he really hoped that the Duke had been killed by the short-haired woman.

Anyway, his mission was to clear Ruby's wrongdoing, and he didn't need the Duke to admit his crime personally.

With the Duke dead, there would be no chance to defend himself, which would be convenient.

It's a pity that he can't know the outcome of the fight between the short-haired woman and the strong man for the time being.

Seeing that Zhao Xun was writing seriously, Xiao Ai curiously went over to read.

She didn't know many words, and she felt dizzy after reading for a while, so she gave up.

She was a little curious about what Zhao Xun was writing, but she didn't ask any more questions.

Zhao Xun did not take the initiative to tell Xiao Ai.

Xiao Ai will naturally know everything tomorrow.

In order to make the handwriting as clear as possible, Zhao Xun did not copy very quickly. It was not until about four o'clock in the morning that he integrated the key parts and transcribed them all.

He stood up, stretched his arms, and said to Xiao Ai, "I'm going out."

Xiao Ai was sitting on the edge of the bed dozing off. When she suddenly heard Zhao Xun's words, she woke up.

She turned to look out the window. It was still dark outside.

"It's so late, where are you going?" she asked confused.

"I have something to do." Zhao Xun said ambiguously. He picked up the original and the copied copy. "You don't have to wait for me. I may not be back for a while."

"Oh, okay." Xiao Ai rubbed the hem of her skirt and murmured, "Then...then take the key with you. I may go out to find a job at dawn."

Zhao Xun said "hmm" casually, turned around and walked out the door.

Xiao Ai looked at Zhao Xun's back as he left neatly, and felt empty in his heart.

She has been alone since her parents died. In fact... she is very afraid of being alone.

So when Zhao Xun said he had no place to stay, she provided him with a place to stay.

She just wanted company.

But now it seems that she will be alone for a long time.

She had to adapt as soon as possible instead of always thinking about finding someone to accompany her.
