Three days later, Ding Sisi came to see me outside the villa and said she had something important to tell me.

When the soldier came to report, Lin Long and I were eating tomato beef brisket hotpot that we cooked ourselves.

I was in a good mood and after thinking for a moment, I let her in.

Seeing her again, I could hardly recognize her.

She was covered in bruises from being beaten, and there was no trace of her former appearance as a campus goddess before the apocalypse.

From the moment she entered, she stared in shock at the comfortable and luxurious villa, her eyes filled with greed.

Then her gaze fell on the self-cooked hotpot in mine and Lin Long's hands, and she couldn't help but lick her lips.

I asked, "What brings you here?"

Ding Sisi said softly, "I know a secret that is of great use to the base. I can tell you, but you must promise me a place to live and supplies."

I glanced at her and said, "It depends on how much your so-called secret is worth. Don't worry, I'm a fair person. As long as the information you provide is valuable, I won't shortchange you."

Ding Sisi stared into my eyes, seemingly judging the truth in my words.

After a moment, she said, "Within the next six months at the latest, Kong Yiyang will awaken a space that can bring anything from reality into it."

Lin Long and I exchanged a glance, speechless.

Ding Sisi thought we didn't believe her and hastily said, "I'm telling the truth!"

I asked, "Where did you get this information?"

Ding Sisi said, "I told you I have the ability to foresee. This is what I foresaw. Kong Yiyang will become the captain of the base's first team. His team has a steady supply of resources. I saw with my own eyes that the originally empty warehouse was filled with things the next day out of thin air. What else could it be if not space transportation?"

Ding Sisi had a keen eye for detail, but unfortunately, she completely mistook the target.

I laughed and placed my hand on the chair next to me. "Are you referring to this space?"

As I finished speaking, the chair disappeared into thin air.

Ding Sisi sat on the ground, full of disbelief. "You also have a space?"

I walked over to her and smiled, saying, "The person with the space is not Kong Yiyang, it's me."

Ding Sisi stared at me in horror as if she had seen a ghost, muttering to herself, "How... how can this be? The space is yours, not Kong Yiyang's?"

I said, "That's right."

After a while, she went crazy, crying and laughing, pulling her hair fiercely, and ran out of the villa.

Lin Long looked stunned and said, "Is she crazy?"

Then she reminded me, "Zhimei, that scumbag Kong Yiyang has come to the villa several times, wanting to reconcile with you. I directly called someone to chase him away. Don't let him deceive you! I heard that after he entered the base, he has been living off Ding Sisi. Men who cheat and live off women are the most disgusting!"

I gave her a reassuring look. "Do I look like such a foolish person?"

Lin Long nodded in satisfaction.

Then she gossiped, "So, how are things developing between you and Xiao Ce?"

I quickly finished the hotpot in my hand, put the bowl on the ground, and said, "I and him are purely work partners."

Then I stood up and said, "I have something to do, I have to leave first."

"Hey? Are you leaving so soon?" Lin Long called from behind. "Zhimei, I think Xiao Ce is interested in you. Consider him!"

Lately, I have been busy with spatial imaging.

Spatial imaging, as the name suggests, is the projection of the images from my space to everyone in the base.

In the previous life, this technology had already reached its final stage of research. In this life, I directly asked Xiao Ce to help me find relevant researchers and handed over the research results to them, asking them to continue in-depth research.

After three days, Ding Sisi approached me outside the villa, claiming to have something important to tell me. Despite her beaten and disheveled appearance, I allowed her inside to hear what she had to say.

She seemed taken aback by the luxurious villa and couldn't hide her greed as her eyes scanned the surroundings. Her gaze then fell upon the tomato beef brisket hotpot that Lin Long and I were enjoying, and her mouth watered.

I inquired about her visit, and Ding Sisi softly requested a place to live and supplies in exchange for a valuable secret she knew. I assured her that I would be fair and not shortchange her if her information proved useful.

Ding Sisi studied my eyes, seemingly trying to determine the sincerity of my words. After a moment, she revealed her secret: within the next six months, Kong Yiyang would awaken a space that could bring anything from reality into it.

Lin Long and I exchanged glances, unsure of how to respond. Ding Sisi must have thought we didn't believe her, as she hastily insisted on the truthfulness of her statement.

I questioned the source of her information, and Ding Sisi explained that she possessed the ability to foresee events. She claimed to have witnessed Kong Yiyang becoming the captain of the base's first team, which received a steady supply of resources seemingly out of thin air. She deduced that it must be due to space transportation.

Unfortunately, Ding Sisi had completely misunderstood the situation.

Amused, I placed my hand on a nearby chair and made it disappear. Ding Sisi, bewildered, sat on the ground, unable to comprehend what she had just witnessed. She muttered in disbelief, questioning how I also had a space.

I approached her with a smile and confirmed that the space was indeed mine, not Kong Yiyang's.

Ding Sisi's reaction turned frantic as she cried, laughed, and pulled at her hair. In her state of distress, she ran out of the villa.

Lin Long seemed bewildered by Ding Sisi's behavior and remarked on her possible insanity. She then reminded me that Kong Yiyang had come to the villa multiple times, attempting to reconcile with me. However, I had him chased away, aware of his deceitful nature. Apparently, he had been living off Ding Sisi's support since entering the base, a behavior that disgusted Lin Long.

I reassured Lin Long, assuring her that I was not easily fooled. She appeared satisfied with my response.

Before leaving, Lin Long couldn't help but gossip about my relationship with Xiao Ce. I quickly finished my hotpot, put the bowl down, and stated that Xiao Ce and I were just work partners. I excused myself, mentioning that I had something to attend to.

Lin Long called out from behind, questioning my hasty departure. She urged me to consider Xiao Ce, as she believed he was interested in me. However, I didn't entertain the thought and left.

Lately, I had been occupied with spatial imaging, a technology that projected images from my space to everyone in the base. In my previous life, this technology had reached an advanced stage of research. In this life, I enlisted Xiao Ce's help to find researchers and provided them with the research results, urging them to continue the in-depth exploration.
