With a bit of struggle, Xia Yu crawled back onto the bed, touched his chin, and pinched the leg of his new body.
He could feel the leg was fine, but this wasn’t the problem.
The problem was—he used his whole strength, but the feeling was faint.
It turned out, there was a problem with this body’s legs.
It wasn’t a serious problem though. Programmers don’t really need legs. As long as their hands are good, then it’s fine.
“Get out of my body!” The voice that had just startled Xia Yu came out once again.
There was suppressed anger in the voice, which was the normal reaction—unlike An Siyao’s abnormal one.
“I’m sorry to inform you that I, too, cannot control this witchcraft,” Xia Yu replied.
“Please, sir, leave my body.” The female voice rephrased her words.
“Even if you use honorifics, it’s useless.”
Xia Yu looked at the laptop on the desk. After learning his legs couldn’t be used, he was so surprised that he just climbed onto the bed and forgot to take the notebook.
“Who are you?” The female voice finally stopped asking him to leave.
“You can call me Harry Potter. I’m a wizard, and I’m working on possessing spells, so I came to you,” Xia Yu answered nonchalantly.
“You’ve possessed me, so you can experience the life of a disabled person?” the female voice mocked.
“It was just an accident.” Xia Yu used his hands to help himself to the edge of the bed. He then stretched out his body with great effort and reached toward the laptop.
His fingertips couldn’t touch the computer, but he was able to grab the mouse pad underneath and pulled it in his direction, finally getting the notebook.
“What, now you want to invade the privacy of a disabled person?” the female voice nagged.
“Yeah, yeah. If you’ve got any confidential photos or videos, let me see.” Xia Yu, having the bad temper he had, countered.
“Don’t even dream about it. Whether it is on a phone or a computer, there’s nothing of the sort.” The female voice wasn’t annoyed with Xia Yu, but her words still sounded angry.
In order to avoid irritating her, Xia Yu let go.
“Hearing this, it looks like I’ve been mistaken about you,” he proceeded to explain.
Rubbing his forehead, Xia Yu sighed. He took back what he had thought before about Xu Youxiang being normal. A normal person in this situation would start feeling panic and ire, but in no way would they be able to express friendliness.
Turning on the computer, Xia Yu told Xu Youxiang, “I came here just to learn something with the help of your body.”
“Learn how to play with the body of a disabled woman?”
“Can we speak amicably?” Xia Yu took the initiative to propose courtesy.
“With a robber who forcibly occupied my body?” Xu Youxiang sneered.
“Don’t say it as if I was doing something bad with the place. I’m just attached to your body.”
However, Xia Yu could tell that the other person’s anger wasn’t caused by him. It seemed like she just needed to vent.
As for the real culprit, it went without saying that it must be the pair of unusable legs.
Paying no more attention to Xu Youxiang, Xia Yu looked at the notebook in her hands and started to ponder.
How could he learn about programming?
This was a highly professional skill, and Xia Yu, who’d never tried it before, didn’t know where to start.
At this moment, Xu Youxiang spoke up.
“Inside a hidden folder on the D drive, you will see the videos you want. Don’t you want to have a look at a disabled person’s preferences? Now that you can see what type of movies the other party watches, it’s the same as ordinary people do. Surprised?” Xu Youxiang was talking in a very peculiar manner.
Without clicking on the D drive, Xia Yu put the laptop aside and felt that he needed to communicate with the other person.
“Can we speak calmly?” Xia Yu offered.
“What do you think?” Xu Youxiang’s tone was still odd.
“As you can see, I’m a wizard, but I’m still an apprentice. If you help me now, I will reward you when I become a real wizard,” Xia Yu bluffed.
After a moment of silence, Xu Youxiang asked, “How about curing my legs?”
“Did you go to the hospital for examination?”
Bluffing was one thing; deceiving someone by exploiting their feelings was something completely different. As a rule, Xia Yu never engaged in the latter.
“I got examined, modern medicine isn’t enough,” Xu Youxiang answered.
“The one in the first district is not enough. What about the second district?” Xia Yu frowned. If Xu Youxiang didn’t have money to cure her legs, he could help her after he becomes rich. But if it isn’t a money problem, then he is helpless.
Perhaps he could study medicine?
When it came to diseases that were still not cured by modern medicine, even if they could be cured thanks to the game system, it would definitely require an extremely high level.
“No, there is no hospital that can heal me!” Xu Youxiang, who had been staying calm with great difficulty, finally burst out.
“For now I’m helpless, but maybe in the future.” Xia Yu told the truth.
“Go away, leave my body!” Xu Youxiang became irritated again.
“Ok, ok. But I can’t leave now, so you need to wait for a few hours.”
He stopped paying attention to her. Xia Yu found a programming manual on the Internet and began to learn.
After eight hours had passed, he came back to his own body.
He sat up and clicked on the skill panel. [Programming Lv 1] didn’t appear on it. Xia Yu rubbed his head, which was aching.
Before, with the painting and piano playing, he had An Siyao’s instructions. And with the black cat’s Cleverness and Scaring, he could count on his own experience. Thus, he made rapid progress. However, when it came to programming without any background nor guidance, there were problems.
After eight hours, he didn’t get to the 1st level!
That girl was too violent. Making him learn from a textbook on his own won’t do.
Coupled with the other person’s scolding, which continued for eight hours, and also holding in for eight hours—because he didn’t know how to use a toilet—Xia Yu started considering giving up on this body.
If this went on, they could only hurt each other.
It was better to lurk outside some big company and catch a beautiful programmer.
Let’s save it for now. Today I’m going to An Siyao, I’ll think about it tomorrow.
