“Don’t rush, keep scrolling.”
Selena said with a smile upon seeing his expression, knowing what he was looking at.
He Ao, hearing her say that, knew there must be more to it, so he continued scrolling down.
After flipping through the long, detailed contents, he ca upon a concluding paragraph.
[Given that you are a distinguished custor of the Nord dical Insurance Group, you are entitled to a special discount for esteed custors.
After the discount, your total bill amounts to: 67,983.5 federal coins.
After deducting the deductible of 6,000 federal coins, 80% of the bill, amounting to 49,586.8 federal coins, will be covered by the Nord dical Insurance Group.
You will need to pay the final bill of: 18,396.7 federal coins.
Since you have signed the no-password paynt treaty, this bill has been paid.
We wish you a pleasant life and good health.]
He Ao exited the information to find many unread ssages on his wristband, the most recent being a debit notification from the bank,
[Nord Bank:
Your credit card ending in 083 has paid a dical bill of 18,396.7 federal coins to Wel dical Group.]
For so reason, although 18 thousand was still six months’ salary for him, compared to 430 thousand, it didn’t seem particularly high anymore.
This ant the discount from the dical insurance was huge, effectively a 0.4 discount.
He now sowhat understood why Selena had emphasized that the Federal Bureau of Investigation had purchased social and dical insurance for him.
However, he looked up at Selena, “My Floating Airship had an accident, will the aerial company offer compensation?”
“Yes,” Selena nodded.
She waved her hand lightly, a link with the information was sent to He Ao, “For unexpected disasters like exotic beast attacks, the aerial company only covers the costs for post-disaster search and rescue, and death compensation.
For soone like you, who survived and is still jumping around lively, the compensation is very little, a maximum of twenty thousand.
This is the Federation Aerial Company’s accidental compensation application webpage, you can try to apply.”
He Ao focused his gaze on the link, which naturally opened and directed him to a form within a webpage.
After it recognized his biotric information, the webpage logged into ‘Ande’s’ mber account and swiftly populated with various identity details.
Then a virtual keyboard erged in the air, inviting He Ao to enter additional identity information and docuntation, including the dical bill sent by the dical group.
He Ao relaxed and let his body move intuitively; he raised both hands and began typing in the air.
He didn’t know Ande’s detailed identity information, but when he needed to fill it out, the information would naturally appear in his mind.
This pair of glasses seed to have so sort of motion capture function, able to recognize his movents and provide feedback.
He just needed to act in the air, and his eyes could capture his actions, creating the corresponding response on the display page.
Selena probably did the sa; He Ao had only seen Selena swipe her hand to send the webpage over—perhaps she was operating on so kind of interface in her vision too.
Once He Ao finished filling in the information and sent it, the page suddenly displayed an advertisent, from a will and testant notary company, offering online services to set up and notarize wills.
…
An accidental compensation webpage linked to a will notary company’s advertisent, what kind of move is this.
An all-in-one service, huh?
But, if we’re being honest here, it actually strikes a chord, as after one accident, no one knows if they’ll have a next ti.
People without a will at that point might really start thinking about creating one.
Truly a genius move by the business.
Out of curiosity, He Ao clicked on the advertisent and examined the dense terms, and then verified his iris, fingerprint, and electronic signature.
The page then stalled on the interface for entering the heir’s information, requiring the na and social security number of the heir.
The Federation doesn’t have identity cards, but almost everyone gets social security, so social security card numbers can be used to verify a specific person’s identity.
Without filling in this information, he couldn’t proceed to the next step.
But Ande’s parents are deceased, he has no siblings, no wife, and even lacks a girlfriend.
Because he had always been working while studying, he didn’t have good relations with classmates, not even a brother whom he could call by na.
·····
He Ao reached out and cancelled the software, unable to co up with a single person to place there,
It was too tragic.
“What’s wrong?” Selena looked at He Ao with a puzzled expression and asked with so curiosity, “Is there sothing special about that interface?”
“Nothing, just rembered so stuff.”
He Ao shook his head, suddenly realizing that his own experiences seed to be not much different from Ande’s.
Oh, so I’m just as miserable, well, that’s that then.
Click—
At that mont, the office door was abruptly pushed open, and a middle-aged man with an academic aura and a bald head walked in.
“Investigators, we have a big problem this ti.”
He tapped on the desk, and a huge photo was projected onto the wall, of a skinny man with grayish-white skin,
“Oh, I haven’t introduced myself yet, you must be Ande?” His gaze rested on He Ao, revealing a smile as he reached out his hand, “I’m Smith, the head of the Wilderness Field Work Departnt, Bald Smith.”
“Hello, I’m Ande.”
He Ao felt sowhat awkward, having never before t soone who included ‘bald’ in their self-introduction.
“I know you must be wondering why I would call myself ‘Bald Smith’,” Smith let go of the hand and sat down with a smile, looking at Selena, “It’s because whenever people introduce , they always use ‘bald’ as a descriptor, so I just had to accept the title.”
Selena leaned on the table, shifting the subject abruptly, “Let’s get to the point.”
The warmth she shared with He Ao had dissipated a lot, replaced by a professional, icy seriousness.
“Mu Xiu, from Twilight City.
When he was thirteen, a major cult ceremony broke out in Twilight City,”
Smith’s tone also dropped as he began to share the story of Mu Xiu.
“The case where the Witch of Desire tried to summon her avatar?”
Selena asked in a low voice.
“Yes, that ceremony covered an entire block and thousands of people died.
Mu Xiu’s parents and siblings all perished in that ceremony,” Smith nodded and continued,
“The incident caused Mu Xiu to beco paranoid and mad.
He received the favor of the God of Chaos in the wilderness and beca the Priest of the God of Chaos.
As far as we know, he has gone on a killing spree in five cities, slaughtering thousands of innocents.”
“He’s co to Dawn City?” Selena looked at Smith, puzzled, “Where did this news co from?”
“From what you brought in,” Smith switched the projection content to the bulky Wilderness Wanderer that He Ao and Selena had just captured, “Nuokang, a minor leader of the Wilderness Wanderer Tam Family.
During his delivery of IB-II to Dawn City, he was ‘interrogated’ by Mu Xiu.”
Smith tapped the table, and the content of the projection changed again, showing chaotic footage from a first-person perspective.
The person behind the cara seed to be sitting next to a vehicle, cleaning their weapon when suddenly, noises and loud gunshots erupted in front.
The cara holder imdiately stood up, but before they could stabilize, a black shadow appeared in front of them.
Subsequently, the footage shook violently, suggesting that the cara holder was being choked and thrown to the ground.
At the sa ti, a face with gray-white skin and eyes emitting a red glow, concealed under a black hood, appeared on screen,
“Which way to Dawn City?”
His voice was mad and deep, like a bloodthirsty beast that had been starved for a long ti.
