119: Chapter 113: Position 119: Chapter 113: Position Mingwang City, lli University Affiliated Comprehensive Hospital.
Luo Di has already been hospitalized here for the second ti, with all four limbs in casts, and various infusion bottles hanging by his side.
The aging curse that had been cast on him has been lifted, returning him to his rightful youthful days.
The incredibly clear dreams felt as if they had truly happened,
but Luo Di did not imrse himself in them, rather he quickly set his mind to find that item of utmost importance to him.
However, the sterile hospital room was empty of everything,
with no trace of his backpack on the chairs or the clothes rack.
Luo Di’s awakening also triggered the sensing device on his body; a series of hurried footsteps rapidly approached the ward, including the dical team and two teammates who had dealt with the retirent ho incident together with him.
Yu Ze yawned repeatedly, as if he wasn’t fully awake, casually waving his arm to greet Luo Di in the hospital bed, seemingly considering such “minor injuries” to be a common and normal occurrence,
even suggesting that this was the best possible outco considering the difficulty of the incident.
Anna understood what Luo Di was thinking, and tiptoed to hold sothing high in her hand.
It was a mountaineering backpack.
When Luo Di saw the bulging backpack, his suspended thoughts completely relaxed.
After a series of examinations, the dical team was also quite astonished; although they knew that Luo Di was an extrely rare “Connector,” they had not expected his self-healing speed to be so much faster than a normal person’s.
Such severe injuries would have been fatal to an ordinary person,
but his current condition would probably allow for discharge in less than two weeks, perhaps even one week.
Additionally, the attending physician was curious about one thing: Luo Di’s personal file indicated that his left arm was missing and had been replaced with a “Bionic Arm (Standard Model).”
However, the scans conducted upon admission revealed,
that this arm was indeed Luo Di’s own,
and what’s more, unknown iron filants were scanned within the arm.
Due to Luo Di’s status as an Intern Investigator, his personal information was to be kept confidential and submitted; disclosure would an the loss of his dical position and the pursuit of responsibility.
The fastest recovery was also observed in his left arm, which had healed to the point where the cast could be removed, as if the iron wires embedded in the arm were also helping with the healing.
Upon confirming Luo Di’s good condition, the dical team successively left, and only the small team of three remained in the ward.
Before the two could speak, Luo Di asked:
“How did I get out?”
Yu Ze moved a chair next to the hospital bed, “How else could you have gotten out?
Fellow countryman, you killed the guy behind the retirent ho, and the Corner-like Space ford by the anomaly collapsed instantly, kicking us outsiders out directly.
On the contrary, the state of your body then was quite frightening.
Basically, you suffered comminuted fractures all over your body, with multiple areas of muscle dissolution; it didn’t look like you were beaten up by soone else, but rather did it to yourself.
But now~everything’s fine, you just need to rest and recover.
Also, I need to have a private chat about so personal matters with you, fellow countryman.”
Yu Ze looked back at Anna standing at the door of the ward; it seed they had already talked about this beforehand, and Anna nodded, ensuring that no one would co in during this ti.
The curtain around the bed fell, enclosing the two n in a private space,
and Yu Ze took out an unusual yellow talisman and affixed it to the curtain.
“We’re all from the sa place and have dealt with the incident together, so I’ll cut to the chase.
Plus, I’ve set up a Barrier, so only the two of us can hear the upcoming conversation.
Don’t be nervous, I’m not digging into your secrets.
I am well aware that it was not just you, Luo Di, who killed the anomaly in the retirent ho; there was another person involved.
I also know that the entire Corner space of the retirent ho did not completely collapse afterward but was transferred to another location.
I only have two questions.”
Yu Ze’s eyes were fully open and bore none of his previous carefree deanor.
He raised his index finger, positioning it in front of Luo Di.
“First, your position should be with us from Huaxia…should be on the side of humanity, right?”
Luo Di didn’t answer verbally or nod, he just stared into the other person’s eyes.
“Very well, the second question.
The ‘fourth person’ involved in this incident, what is her position?
Rest assured, regarding the reports about the retirent ho event, I will only elaborate on our actions as three people and emphasize that the final killing of the anomaly was solely achieved by you, and will never ntion the existence of the fourth person.
What I want to know is just a matter of [position].”
“I don’t know.”
Yu Ze pursed his lips, pondered for a mont, and finally nodded.
“Fine then~ Anyway, I trust a fellow countryman.
Since the event is over, I need to head back to the Capital City, as they are already eager to get my evaluation of you.
Based on your current performance, it’s only a matter of ti before you’re heading to the Capital City, and you could even co with right now.
But I’ve thought it over a little, and you still have a lot of things to take care of in Mingwang City, so there’s no rush.
And this port city has its own uniqueness, so you can live here as an Intern Investigator for a while until everything is ready, then co to the Capital City.
Just rember to give a call in advance when the ti cos.”
“Thank you.”
“Ah~ No need to say that between fellow countryn.”
“You should be able to explore the Corners by now, shouldn’t you?”
Yu Ze was caught off guard by Luo Di’s abrupt change of topic, pointing towards his own nose, “?
Explore the Corners?
I’m still young, haven’t had enough fun, and don’t want to die in there so soon.
Perhaps I’ll consider it once I’ve had my fun.
Then when you, my fellow countryman, co to the Capital City, we could sign up together.
Ti is almost up, I need to catch the shuttle bus!
Once I get back to the Capital City I’ll have a good rest, haven’t been this tired in a long ti.
I’ll trouble you to collect the material reward for this event; most of the work was done by you anyway.
Those Italian financiers are loaded, try to get them to give as much as possible.”
“Wait.”
“What’s up?”
“You’re a Connector, aren’t you?”
“I’ll tell you when you co to the Capital City, goodbye, fellow countryman!”
Yu Ze slid his fingers over his temples as a farewell, then casually pulled off the talisman from the curtain and left it by the bed as a gift.
“This thing, as long as it’s pasted inside a closed space, can isolate everything, ensuring that nothing happening in that space will leak out.
Of course, its effective period is only 48 hours.
If you want to do any ‘private’ matters in the hospital room, just stick this on.
We’ll see each other again, so no need for a farewell gift, bye!”
Click~ The door is locked.
Yu Ze hurriedly left.
After all, Luo Di would still need to be hospitalized for so ti and couldn’t mooch off als.
And he had already figured that Luo Di had so private matters to deal with, so he didn’t want to disturb him further.
“Anna, paste this on the door.”
“Okay.”
Anna was well aware of the talisman’s effects and could guess what Luo Di intended to do by sealing the hospital room.
The mont the talisman was pasted on the Iron Gate, the sounds from the hospital corridor instantly vanished, and the entire room was completely isolated, while Anna’s gaze naturally fell upon the climbing bag in her hands.
It was odd,
the weight of the climbing bag seed lighter than a few minutes ago,
Anna realized sothing and hastily unzipped the backpack.
Inside were only so most basic living essentials, but the most important item was missing.
“How could this be!?
It was there when I entered the hospital room, and I could clearly feel its presence when I held it… Could it be Yu Ze!?”
Anna dared not speak of the possibility that the ‘squad leader’ had lost it, to avoid upsetting Luo Di, who was still in the hospital bed.
She directed all suspicion towards Yu Ze, who had just left, as his abilities were unfathomable.
Just as she was thinking of an excuse to dash out of the room and catch up to him,
Out of the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of the standing mirror not far from the hospital room, the reflection in the mirror just so happened to capture a corner of the hospital bed.
Using the mirror’s reflection, Anna saw soone sitting at the edge of the bed, the angle made it unclear who it was.
She imdiately turned to look at the bed, but there was nothing, as if the person only existed within the mirror.
To get a clearer view, Anna moved her steps slowly toward the mirror, and indeed there was soone sitting near the head of the bed.
A woman dressed in hospital patient’s attire,
with her jet-black hair hanging down her back,
holding a fruit knife in her hand, peeling a red apple, seemingly intending to feed Luo Di in the bed.
Seemingly feeling the gaze from Anna, and sensing that Anna might shout out loud,
the woman paused her apple peeling, raised a finger to her lips.
Shhh…
