Chapter 10
‘I hate you, An Ya!’
Xu Bai was eating his al with his right hand, which seed to no longer be that badly injured after a day. Inwardly, he was cursing An Ya.
He did not want to recover so quickly, but he did not hesitate when forced to choose between the miraculous recovery of his right hand or allowing a nurse who was old enough to be his grandmother to feed him.
Of course, the fact that Xu Bai’s right arm had miraculously improved naturally attracted the attention of the doctor on duty.
Xu Bai, who was originally thinking of going to the ICU on the tenth floor to see his sister, spent two hours dissuading the doctor from giving him another CT scan.
He then spent another hour convincing the doctor that his right arm recovered quickly because of his sturdy constitution, but that his left arm still hurt. As such, he would still need to stay in the hospital for at least ten days before he could be discharged.
After he was done with all that, he watched as the doctor left in a daze. Just like that, the entire afternoon was wasted.
In addition, Xu Bai could no longer look forward to the young nurses feeding him dinner. After all, when he explained why his right hand recovered faster than his left hand, he sensed that so of the young nurses were looking at him strangely.
F*ck!
It was all An Ya’s fault!
Xu Bai was furious. He suspected that the earlier swap in nurses for his lunch feeding had been An Ya’s doing.
Although he had no evidence, An Ya had sufficient motive to commit the cri.
How unlucky!
Xu Bai thought of the three tis he had t An Ya. The first ti was when they ca to the Feng City police departnt. Xu Bai had chosen a rich and powerful big sister as his teacher, but An Ya beat him to it.
Then ca the second ti, which was last month when she took away his gun. Thanks to that, he almost t his maker when he encountered Liu San earlier.
Then, today, his perfectly fine young nurse was swapped for an older grandmother.
Xu Bai was left speechless by the unfortunate events that always took place when they t.
At the sa ti, he recalled An Ya’s aningful gaze when she left after telling him that the people from the Departnt of Holand Security might co.
Liu San?
Xiao Jingtian?
Possession?
Holand Security?
Xu Bai leaned against the headboard with his head lowered. His eyes flickered.
The next day, when he woke up, Xu Bai checked the ti and called his colleagues at the police departnt.
The call went through.
“Hello.”
“Brother Bai, the team leader said that you were hospitalized. How are your injuries? I’m sorry I couldn’t visit. I went to the prison on a mission yesterday.”
“Haha, my injuries aren’t too bad.”
Xu Bai laughed it off. Then, he said to his colleague, Chen Shan, “Little San, are you in front of the computer now?”
Chen Shan replied affirmatively.
“What’s the matter, Brother Bai? Do you need my help for sothing?”
“Yes, help look up Liu San’s information and send it to my email.”
“Sure.”
As Chen Shan spoke, he got to work on the computer. Then, he seed to recall sothing and asked, “But can you check your email with that antique phone of yours?”
Xu Bai chuckled.
“I can borrow a phone from a nurse.”
“It just so happens that you stole the nurse’s phone number as well, huh. As expected of you, Brother Bai.”
“Hey! If I wanted the number, I would never resort to such ans. That’s an insult to my charm and appeal!”
“…”
When Chen Shan heard this overly arrogant statent, he really wanted to curse. However, when he opened his mouth to retort, he realized that Xu Bai’s words were the truth.
At this mont, two words on the screen caused Chen Shan to gasp.
Access Forbidden…
“What’s wrong?”
“Access is forbidden.”
“What?”
Chen Shan keyed in a few strokes again, trying to retrieve Liu San’s information. However, the “Access Forbidden” prompt appeared again.
“Liu San’s information has been marked. I don’t have the authority to retrieve it.”
Xu Bai frowned.
Then, right at this mont, soone knocked on the door of the ward. Shortly after, a man and a woman walked in from outside.
At this mont, Chen Shan’s voice was heard from the other end of the line. He was looking at the departnt that had restricted access to Liu San’s information.
“It’s Holand Security, Brother Bai. Do you need to call and ask…”
“There’s no need for that. They’re already here. We’ll chat later,” Xu Bai interrupted him.
Xu Bai hung up and looked up at the man and woman standing at the door.
The man was wearing a suit and leather shoes. He looked ordinary, and there seed to be nothing special about him. He had the kind of face that one could easily lose track of in a crowd.
As for the woman?
When Xu Bai looked at a woman, he would always look at her legs first. There was no doubt that this woman’s thighs were strong, and Xu Bai had no doubt that the woman’s thighs could crush a man’s head.
As for the woman’s face…
Well, that scored lower.
If Xu Bai were to rate her, he would give her seven points for her looks and nine points for her thighs.
On a scale of ten.
Xu Bai put aside his flip phone and looked at their info panels as they walked in.
[Na: Zheng Sen]
[Gender: Male]
[Level: 17]
[Realm: Fourth-level Martial Apprentice]
[Familiarity Level: Normal]

[Na: Gu Hongyu]
[Gender: Female]

[Familiarity Level: Unfamiliar]

‘I leveled up, but it sohow seems like the world has also leveled up with …’
A strange thought crossed Xu Bai’s mind.
After all, before he stumbled upon the main mission, everyone who appeared in front of him was just like him, an ordinary citizen who was nothing special.
However, when he leveled up…
Good heavens!
Since he t Liu San the day before yesterday, a total of five strangers had appeared in front of him. Now, two of them had surpassed Level 10, and they were also martial apprentices.
Was it because he was careless in the past and did not see it?
Or was it because he did not have access to it before finding the main mission and his level was too low?
It should be the latter.
Xu Bai briefly thought about the cold-faced An Ya and the situation with her info panel, and felt that his speculation was correct.
The man and woman who walked in looked at each other. Then, the man nad Zheng Sen walked forward with a smile and greeted Xu Bai, “Hello, Detective Xu, we are…”
Xu Bai snapped out of his daze and looked at the smiling man.
“You guys are from the Departnt of Holand Security.”
“… Yes.”
Zheng Sen was slightly stunned, but he was not surprised. He nodded and went straight to the point, “Regarding Liu San’s case, there are so things we want to know.”
Xu Bai was speechless.
