From BOSS to Canon Fodder: She is Currently Out of Service! Chapter 5 - 3: My Children Are Eggs

Due to her ntal fatigue, her manipulation was a bit stiff. If outsiders saw it, they might think she was a walking corpse.

She opened the door with difficulty, and outside stood a middle-aged woman in a tattered coat, looking awkwardly at her.

Su Jiang felt awkward too, and unable to determine who she was, she kept silent and slightly moved aside to let her in. Only then did the middle-aged woman feel slightly less uneasy and stated her purpose... It turned out the neighbor had run out of soy sauce and ca over to borrow so...

Borrow... soy sauce (＠_＠;), Su Jiang remained silent and then nodded. The middle-aged woman seed very happy, skillfully found the kitchen, and took half a bottle of soy sauce, three-quarters of the vinegar, the sour aged wine, and most of the MSG...

Speaking of which... wasn’t she here to borrow soy sauce? Why did she ransack her kitchen? Not knowing the relationship between this body and the middle-aged woman, or how good it was, Su Jiang chose silence for safety’s sake.

"Xiao Su, you see this..." The middle-aged woman, having quickly finished with those, looked at the ssy kitchen counter, showing an embarrassed smile, but more so regret... regret that she couldn’t ’borrow’ all the condints?

"We have several mouths to feed at ho, use quite a lot, afraid we’ll need to borrow from you again in a few days, so took more this ti... after I get the subsidy next month, I’ll surely buy new ones and return to you..." After saying this, the middle-aged woman left with her "spoils of war", and in the end, she took away a pair of chopsticks, "By the way, how are those two kids of yours doing?"

Two... kids? Su Jiang thought she heard the sound of thunder in a clear sky and looked out at the gray window, the sky was normal. So... it wasn’t a hallucination? This body... was actually a married woman, and she had suddenly been promoted several levels to becoming a mother? Yet, since she woke up, she hadn’t seen any sign of kids...

"They’re... doing alright now..." Su Jiang said dryly, the middle-aged woman seed dissatisfied with her saying so, showing a face of mockery and disdain, leaving Su Jiang perplexed... It seed the relationship between this body and this person wasn’t great.

"I told you, it’s better to carry the children yourself, why have surgery to take them out and raise them on nutrient liquid, sigh... us poor folks, where do we have the opportunity to raise such good kids?" The middle-aged woman said, clicking her tongue in what seed like regret before quickly walking out, not even bothering to close the door. Because of this, Su Jiang heard her cursing...

"Just a little nobody with an uncertain background, still thinking of raising two cha Master kids, well now, serves them right suffocating in the egg shells! Living is just a waste, why not just die early..."

As the other person left, Su Jiang could confirm, the relationship between this body and that woman was indeed bad ╮(╯﹏╰)╭.

Using telekinesis to close the door automatically and lock it, she decided never to open the door to strangers again. However... according to the middle-aged woman’s words, it seems "she" has two children, and they might suffocate in egg shells... egg shells?

Suddenly, Su Jiang rembered sothing, only to see two round eggs rolling out from the bathroom to her feet, nudging her, as if silently comforting her. Suddenly, she realized, and felt ashad for her previous inappropriate thoughts. If that woman hadn’t co to "borrow" soy sauce, would she have made a huge mistake, taking this body’s two children as eggs to wash clean and cook?

Seems quite risky... Back when Su Jiang led the Expedition Army against the Insect Race, later being besieged, during tough tis, she even forced herself to eat the carcasses of those Insect Race mbers that died for several days, not to ntion their laid eggs, which under such conditions, were exquisite food.

Slowly squatting down, she apologetically caressed their egg shells, whispering, "I’m sorry..."

Knowing they are the body’s children, even if Su Jiang starved to death, she wouldn’t touch them. Human survival instincts are terrifying, and in a crisis, many bottom-line-breaking actions are taken, but she always adhered to her own bottom line. If her rationality were controlled by instinct, then what difference would she have from those Insect Races? Just an Insect Race disguised in human skin...

Looking at the somber sky outside and the giant structures within view, the air seed to be filled with a peculiar scent... she couldn’t help but wonder, what planet is this? She decided to turn on the interstellar network screen on the smart brain, the network speed was slow, but eventually, it connected shakily, her fingers trembling as she searched online for answers and got them.
