He lives on another planet and is majoring in Earth Science.

Four people squatted on the Gobi Desert outside the elevator entrance, feeling the wind and sand blowing.

Shrimp Pupu gripped the communicator: "Hey, Thin Strip. Person, oh no, dead person, I've sent you to that shady clinic. The doctor said they don't have any human body data, but we've got it sorted out for you. There's just one problem now. The surgery will cost 224 million. Can you pay that?"

The slender man exclaimed in surprise, "Is it really that expensive? I thought it would only cost tens of thousands of yuan!"

"Please, that's a resurrection surgery. Is a life really that cheap?"

"What else can I do? Let me think of a solution."

"The clinic said that if the money wasn't collected within an hour, they would take him to be cremated."

The thin, long figure said anxiously, "Tell them to wait! I'm sure I can raise the money! If I can't raise it right now, at least find a way to help me keep it!"

"It's hopeless," Xia Pupu said. "I've worked here before. Once a body is sent in, you can forget about getting it back. They say it's cremation, but it's most likely just for organ harvesting. But for primitive people like us, we probably just roast them."

"Isn't this like organized crime?"

"Isn't this the kind of shady clinic you want? Hurry up. I'll try my best to get it for you."

After hanging up the phone, the thin, long strip of skin sank into despair.

He leaned against the wall with one hand, trying his best to keep himself standing.

224 million? He couldn't possibly come up with that much money even if you beat him to death.

He's a fugitive, so getting a loan is impossible.

Of all the people I know, only Dailulu has that kind of financial resources.

"Delulu and Li Ji should have a decent relationship, right? But I don't know if they're that close."

"What if I rely on my relationship with Delulu?"

"It should be a bit safer than Li Ji's. After all, everyone loves me, who wouldn't want to lend me 224 million?"

With that in mind, the slender bar dialed Dailulu's number.

Dailulu was anxiously waiting inside the spaceship, which hovered in near-Earth orbit. If Li Ji contacted her, she could reach him directly.

She stood nervously outside the lounge where Li Ji was being held, her breathing unusually heavy.

She kept checking the time on the communicator.

"It's been a long time, meow. Why hasn't he called yet, meow? Could it really be him inside, meow?"

Dailulu dared not enter the lounge, fearing that seeing Li Ji's pitiful state of being tied up would soften her heart.

"Just because he didn't call doesn't mean it's him inside, meow. What should we do now, meow?"

Suddenly, the communicator rang.

Dailu hurriedly answered the phone: "Li Jimiao!"

The thin person on the other end of the phone was stunned and instinctively hung up.

What's going on? Why did Dailulu call out to Li Ji right away? Does she know I helped Li Ji? Is she going to report me?
Just as her long, anxious brain was rapidly heating up, Delulu called back.

His hand holding the communicator was trembling uncontrollably.

Should I answer the call? Or should I just run away?

Then he thought of Li Ji's cold, pale corpse, and steeled his heart: "Li Ji, I've lived and died with you! This friendship wasn't in vain, was it?"

He pressed the call button on the slender phone, and heard an anxious voice from the other end: "Li Ji, is that you, meow?"

“I am not Li Ji, I am long and thin.”

"Long and thin? Lee Ki is with you, meow?"

"Emmm, strictly speaking, we're not together."

"You've seen him, meow?"

"Emmm, strictly speaking, I've never seen it before."

Dailu was so anxious she almost wanted to smash the communicator: "Then why did you call, meow?" The slender man was also gripping his phone anxiously. He had no idea what the other party's attitude was and hadn't thought of what to say at all.

"I, emmm, am hungry. Today is Crazy Tuesday. Can you give me 224 million Alliance Coins?"

"Get lost, meow!"

Dailu slammed down the phone and pounded on the door, yelling, "That slender, crazy girl! Is she insane? Calling me at this crucial moment! She's a complete idiot! I'm so angry!"

She took out a calming bracelet from her pocket and put it on.

As my mind returned to calm, I suddenly realized something was wrong.

“Thin Stripe has always been a bit of an idiot, but he’s never made these kinds of pointless harassing calls before. Something’s wrong here. When Li Ji came to Earth, he needed a communicator to contact us, and Thin Stripe is the only person he can trust. That’s why he hangs up as soon as I say ‘Li Ji’ when he calls.”

Dailulu felt her mind becoming clearer and clearer.

"Because he didn't know my attitude towards Lee Ki, he was scared, meow."

Delulu frowned and pinched her chin: "But if they're together, they should know my feelings for Lee Ki, meow. Then there's only one possibility: Lee Ki might be unconscious or unable to reveal information, meow."

"224 million, this money must be for something, meow. Kidnapping? Extortion, meow?"

“If he’s in this state, he won’t tell you no matter how you ask. It might even put Li Ji in more danger.”

"Never mind, this is just a little money to give a beggar, let's try it out first, meow. Hopefully my cousin won't revoke my account access, meow."

Delulu dialed the long, thin phone again: "Account Meow."

"Eh?"

"I said account meow!"

The slender strip quickly told Delulu about the illegal clinic's account.

Dai Lulu hurriedly hung up the phone and transferred 224 million yuan from her cousin's account to the account provided by Xi Changtiao.

The screen displayed the following message: [Transfer failed! You do not have permission to use this account.]

Desperate, Dailu pounded her head. She turned and rushed into the lounge, ignoring Li Ji, who was huddled in the corner.

"Shark, do you have any money, meow? 224 million, meow."

"What do you want the money for?"

"Never mind that, meow. I remember you made millions when you bet on your scholarship last time, meow."

"I'll use that money to pay off my student loans."

"Didn't you pay off your student loans before?"

"I used it to pay off my mom's student loan. I only have 2400 in my account now, do you want it?"

Delulu turned and left, going to the next room to find Milia: "Do you have any money, meow? I need 224 million, meow. I know you made millions betting on your scholarship last time, meow."

Milia looked distressed: "I still have student loans to pay off."

"You've paid off student loans too, meow?"

“I haven’t paid mine back yet. All the money in our family is managed in a unified manner. I’ll use it to pay off my grandfather’s student loan first.”

Do pirates also have to pay off loans?

"You don't know, the most powerful fleet in the entire universe is the security force of the Interstellar Alliance Bank, followed by the Alliance Tax Bureau. Our family account has a maximum of 20 left, and I can only mobilize 25. Do you want it?"

Desperate, Dailu squatted on the ground and checked her account. She had no hope, since her mother had frozen her account before. Now that the gun was pointed at her mother's head, there was no reason not to freeze it.

She opened her account and saw: "Not frozen, meow?"

Dailulu checked it three times to confirm that the account was indeed not frozen.

But she didn't transfer the money immediately, because if she did, her mother's people would teleport to the vicinity within ten minutes. It didn't matter if she was taken back, but Li Ji's physical body was still on the spaceship, and she had to stay away from the spaceship.

Delulu stepped alone into the escape pod at the stern of the spaceship, instructing her companions: "Leave the solar system for now to avoid being discovered by my mother, meow. Remember, whatever you do, don't fall for the fake Li Ji, meow. When Li Ji contacts you, read his memories, and find the inconsistencies, you'll be able to determine the truth, meow. You must save him, meow!" (End of Chapter)
