Her Food Livestream Broke the Galaxy

Chapter 258: Pressing On with the Livestream

The two remaining men stood where they were. "Should we report this to Minister Mo?"

"Definitely. She specifically asked us to keep an eye on Miss Jiang before she left. Something this vicious happened, so we absolutely have to inform her. Besides, this involves the nobles. If we want a thorough investigation, we’ll certainly need Minister Mo’s help."

At the mention of the nobles, the other middle-aged soldier sighed. "If I hadn’t been injured back then, I never would have wanted to retire from the corps."

"Serving as a local garrison... there’s just too much darkness, too many regrets."

The other man patted his shoulder. "Don’t dwell on it. We still have a long life ahead of us. We can hope for a better future."

"Yeah."

As they spoke, he sent a private message about the day’s events to Mo Chengyu’s terminal.

Meanwhile, the research institute had developed a prototype. Mo Chengyu, more invested than anyone, went straight into the simulation environment to begin testing data.

The simulation environment was completely secure, and her terminal was locked away in a private storage box. It BEEPED twice upon receiving the message, but there was no reply.

"Minister Mo must be busy. She hasn’t gotten back to us yet."

"Well, let’s head back and try to match these Genes to a Mercenary first. I can’t imagine what kind of grudge would drive someone to hire an assassin to destroy a young girl’s Spirit Sea. It’s just plain vicious."

Their voices gradually faded on the wind.

Inside the courtyard house, Jiang Qiuqiu was still wearing the Spirit Recovery Helmet.

The helmet had significantly reduced the pain. Although she still felt a little dizzy after taking it off, it wasn’t unbearable.

Jiang Qiuqiu couldn’t go to the hospital today.

She opened her terminal and went to Federation Livestream, where her upcoming stream was already featured on the homepage.

If she went to the hospital now, she would have to cancel the stream.

Jiang Qiuqiu took a deep breath. ’I should be able to make it through this stream. I’ll go to the hospital after.’

Having settled on a plan, Jiang Qiuqiu took off the helmet and began her prep work.

She checked the camera bot, then the scanner’s power level. She opened a pack of flint and placed it under the grill, then took out the oysters—delivered fresh on ice just today—from the temperature-controlled container.

With a little time left before the stream, Jiang Qiuqiu picked up a knife and quickly shucked the stack of oysters to one side, leaving just a few unopened ones for a demonstration later.

The time slowly ticked over to 4:55. Meimei sent a message to confirm the start time, and Jiang Qiuqiu replied with an "ok."

At that moment, her fan circle was buzzing with excitement.

[The happiest time of the day is finally here! I’m so excited!]

[I’m so happy we get to eat delicious food earlier today! But it makes me sad that the wait for the next stream will be even longer~ I wish it was a little earlier every day!]

[Dream on.]

A smile touched Jiang Qiuqiu’s slightly pale face. She gave a light cough, pressed her temples, and started the day’s livestream.

Jiang Qiuqiu had just changed into a long-sleeved jacket to hide her injury.

She began with her usual opening line, "Welcome, everyone, to my food livestream. I’m Jiang Jiujiu, and today is a special day. We’re going to be trying a brand-new type of dish—"

"I’m sure you’re all looking forward to it, so let’s follow the camera and take a look at today’s star of the show!"

At Jiang Qiuqiu’s gesture, the camera bot panned over to the oysters on the cutting board.

The interstellar era oysters were as large as two of Jiang Qiuqiu’s fists put together. They looked just like the oysters of old—bumpy, uneven, grayish, and rather ugly.

Ugly things are always a little hard to accept.

And—

[Whoa, what are we supposed to be eating today? Looks like us old folks are out of luck.]
