Chapter 139 Daily Visits to Patients (Part 2)
The next day, Lu Ren's burps smelled like apples.
The good news was that the Qilin cub was accompanying him the next day, and the mountain ghost didn't come, so Dong Huang didn't show up either. Lu Ren finally didn't have to be forced to eat apples desperately by Dong Huang's death gaze.
Kirin cub was holding the pink little rabbit that A Bing was living with and sitting in the sun reading a picture book, while Lu Ren was lying on the bed doing nothing, counting on his fingers the length of time he had been in the hospital.
Today is Wednesday. He has been in the hospital for four days since he woke up. It is said that he was in a coma for three days before he woke up, so he has been in the hospital for almost a whole week.
After a while, Dean Bai Ze sent someone to call the Qilin cub. He would occasionally tell the Qilin cub some of the rules of conduct passed down from generation to generation by the mythical beasts. Lu Ren thought that it was a good thing for the Qilin cub to have more wise elders to teach him at this age, so he did not stop him and let the Qilin cub go.
After Qilin Cub left, Lu Ren lay alone in bed, feeling like he was about to rust. He planned to take the opportunity to ask if there was any quick way to treat the soul injury when Yu Shi and others came to visit him on the weekend.
However, what Lu Ren did not expect was that the first people to visit him were not his colleagues from the logistics team, but the smart people from the combat team.
The incident happened a day ago, when the combat team received the news that Lu Ren was injured and hospitalized.
The wise men began to discuss.
Zhu Yan, the smartest one, said, "Have you heard? The human from the logistics team was injured and hospitalized. He hasn't come to work for several days."
It seemed that Bifang No. 2, the smartest one, had heard the news a long time ago. He said mysteriously, "You don't know how he got injured, right?" His face was full of mystery, as if he knew some shocking secret.
The smart ones stretched their heads and waited for him to share: "How did you get hurt?"
The smart Bifang said, "Don't tell anyone else. I heard from Wen Ma from Combat Team 2 that he came to work early last Monday and saw..."
At this point, Bifang kept it a secret.
The smart people felt that their hearts were about to be lifted out of their throats by Bifang's heavy breathing: "Why don't you speak quickly!"
The smart ones excitedly got started right away.
Bifang was nearly strangled to death. He finally broke free from his colleague’s grip and said, “I’ll tell you!” Bifang took two deep breaths and continued, “He saw the human punch the director and then run away.”
Zhu Yan was horrified when he heard this, and trembled: "He beat up the director and he's still alive?!"
Bifang nodded and said, "That's right. I heard that the director chased him directly at that time."
Jin Wu, who was listening, couldn't help but ask, "Where did you chase him to?"
After hearing this, Bifang had an expression that said, "You finally got to the point."
Bifang just chuckled, then lowered his voice and said, "Wen Ma said that he smelled the breath of Huangquan from the door that Lu Ren entered."
"Huangquan?!" Recently, a big event happened in Jiuyou Realm, causing the people in the Foreign Household Investigation Bureau to become very sensitive to words related to Jiuyou.
Because just recently, the Foreign Household Investigation Bureau and the Nine Netherworld Bureau, which had no communication for tens of thousands of years, suddenly established contact. Even the elite members of Combat Group One and Combat Group Two received the Kunlun Order issued by the director himself while they were sleeping.
The Kunlun Order had not been used since the Kunlun Realm Bureau changed its name. Its sudden reappearance really scared the colleagues in the combat team.
The Kunlun Order is not really an order, but a soul imprint. All the people in the Kunlun Realm will have the Kunlun Seal engraved on them when they first enter the Realm. It can ensure safety and can also directly transmit the orders of the guards into their minds. However, Si Yuan does not like the feeling of being forced to give orders, so the function of transmitting orders has long become a decoration.
The colleagues in the combat team had already fallen asleep that day. In just a moment, Si Yuan's cold and ruthless voice suddenly began to play in his head.
"Come to Jiuyou quickly."
If the message from Lord Kunlun is not carried out in time , this voice will continue to loop, even until death.
What is more cruel than overtime is forced overtime. What is more cruel than forced overtime is the boss’s voice that keeps ringing in your head and keeps you awake.
When the combat team arrived at Jiuyou, everyone was stunned. Jiuyou Jiesi, although located in Fengdu, was one of the four Jiesi, as famous as the Alien Household Registration Bureau. At this moment, it was indeed devastated, with mountains of corpses and seas of blood filled with the wailing sounds of hundreds of ghosts. The ruins that soared into the sky rose from the ground, stretched and twisted in the air, as if to alienate this world and send it into a deeper abyss.
The members of the combat team did not dare to delay and began to suppress the ruins without stopping.
This suppression caused the first and second combat groups to not be able to sleep for three whole days.
Bifang's words made everyone unconsciously recall the nightmarish experience, and for a moment everyone could not help but fall silent.
After a long while, Zhu Yan swallowed his saliva and couldn't help but break the awkward atmosphere in front of him: "So...the two of them overturned the Hades because of internal conflicts?"
This guess was a bit too bold. Jin Wu laughed dryly: "Ha...haha, how is it possible..."
Everyone smirked twice as if in agreement, and then fell silent at the same time.
It seems...it's not impossible.
Finally, it was Bifang who continued, "I heard that the human is staying in the 18th Hospital. Should we go see him?"
Zhu Yan's face was full of disapproval: "What's so good about being injured? Who in the combat team hasn't been injured?"
The other smart people in the battle group echoed: "That's right! That's right!"
So, everyone agreed not to take the human too seriously. After all, the human life span is only a few decades. For these ancient beasts, when they are in a bad mood, they can just sleep and decades will pass. It is really not worth worrying about it.
But the next day, which was Wednesday, when Lu Ren was lying on his hospital bed bored, the door of his ward was pushed open.
The man who came looked very timid, a plain-looking middle-aged man with a long, hideous scar from above his eye to the bridge of his nose, his hair dyed silver-white, and he was wearing a pair of flip-flops in the middle of winter.
He held a plastic bag in his hand. No one knew what was in the bag, but a deep red liquid oozed out and dripped onto the snow-white floor tiles of the ward. This man had a strong murderous aura, and Lu Ren got goose bumps all over his body as soon as he entered the room.
Lu Ren was so frightened that he rolled off the bed. He thought to himself that he should not have owed any loan sharks, so how could he suddenly offend such an evil spirit? Could the thing in the plastic bag be the murder weapon ?
He held his head, trying to cover himself with the bed board, and kept muttering: "Please spare my life, sir!"
When the evil spirit saw Lu Ren like this, he actually showed a silly expression and kept saying hello: "Lu Ren, what are you doing? It's me, Zhu Yan from the combat group!"
After hearing this, Lu Ren poked his head out from behind the bed and looked at Zhu Yan in front of him.
It was no wonder that Lu Ren didn't recognize him. Zhu Yan usually wore his original face in the Immigrant Household Investigation Bureau. Others' original faces had multiple ears or multiple tails, but Zhu Yan liked to wear a long ape face, which made him look like he had just escaped from a zoo.
Lu Ren and Zhu Yan were not familiar with each other and had only exchanged a few words. Moreover, Zhu Yan looked like a giant ape and was always in a hurry every time he entered and exited the Foreign Household Registration Bureau. He looked very difficult to deal with, so Lu Ren kept his distance from him.
Now that Zhu Yan has transformed into a human form to visit the patient, it is not surprising that Lu Ren could not recognize him.
Zhu Yan was not shy, he smiled innocently and greeted Lu Ren: "I heard you were... injured, so I came to see you." As he spoke, he stood on tiptoe and observed Lu Ren carefully, as if studying Lu Ren's injury. But Lu Ren looked like he could run and jump, and spoke with full energy, he really didn't look like he was injured.
The more Zhu Yan watched, the more confused he became. He thought to himself, "Could it be that this human could escape unscathed after fighting with the director?"
Of course Lu Ren had no idea of the twists and turns in Zhu Yan's mind. He quickly placed a chair beside the bed and politely asked Zhu Yan to sit down. He also kindly asked him if he wanted some water. The water in the thermos was still hot not long after being filled.
Zhu Yan sat down obediently, but did not drink the water. Instead, he handed the plastic bag in his hand to Lu Ren.
"I'm a rough man, and I don't know what to bring when visiting a patient. It just so happened that I caught a violent and resistant Gu Diao on a mission yesterday. I got the horn on top of its head, so I quickly sawed it off and sent it to you today."
The horn of the Gu Diao?
Lu Ren was a little confused. He didn't understand the rules for visiting sick souvenirs among monsters, but that didn't stop him from getting a tingling sensation when he saw the blood-dripping plastic bag. Moreover, Zhu Yan's words seemed to inadvertently reveal that those who violently resisted the law seemed to be divided up by the investigation bureau as a matter of course. His tone was as calm as if he was saying, "I bought a piece of tenderloin at the vegetable market today."
This is simply a horror story.
Lu Ren broke out in a cold sweat: "No...you don't have to be so polite."
Zhu Yan was very cheerful: "If you want it, take it. We are all colleagues. If you don't accept it, you are being mean to me!" As he said that , he threw the bloody plastic bag directly into Lu Ren's arms.
The plastic bag was not tied tightly, and it loosened unconsciously during Zhu Yan's actions, allowing Lu Ren to see what was inside the plastic bag. It was a thing that looked like a rhino horn, with some skin and flesh attached to the root. This should be the source of the blood that had dripped from the plastic bag.
This rhino horn is hollow and looks like a horn.
Zhu Yan took the initiative to introduce the gift he brought: "When you can't sleep, you can blow the horn of the Gu Diao gently, and it will make the sound of a baby crying, which can help you sleep well all night. However," Zhu Yan reminded, "Don't blow too hard, otherwise the sound will be too loud, and anyone who hears it will bleed to death."
Lu Ren was just about to say thank you, but after hearing Zhu Yan's additional explanation, the smile on his face froze instantly. For a moment, he didn't know whether he should say thank you or not.
Lu Ren felt the plastic bag in his hand suddenly become hot. He thought: "If it blows gently, then I won't have a good night's sleep, but will be knocked unconscious by the sound that doesn't exert its full power."
