“But I can’t just stand by and watch him die from his serious injuries,” the policewoman retorted.

"You can't sign on behalf of the injured person's family. Do you know that you'll cause unnecessary trouble for the police station?" the sergeant said sternly. "Who told you to go to Fengming Road today? Didn't I say at noon that there was no need to be on duty there today?"

The policewoman said aggrievedly, "I ran into them while I was eating, and it just so happened that I witnessed this attack. You have no idea, if I hadn't gone, those attackers would have stabbed him with a knife."

Seeing the policewoman's aggrieved look, the police chief felt embarrassed to scold her anymore: "Never mind, it's your first day on the job, there are many things you don't understand yet, you'll get better in the future."

He then muttered to himself, "What's wrong with this tiger? Weren't we supposed to teach it a lesson?"

"Master, what did you say?" The policewoman with keen hearing heard the police chief's words and immediately asked.

"It's nothing, you stay here, I'll go investigate the scene." The sheriff said and turned to leave.

The police chief, who had just entered the building, took out his phone and made a call. He said, "Tiger, what do you mean? Didn't we agree to teach him a light lesson? How did it escalate to the point of killing someone?"

A voice came from the other end of the phone: "Officer Song, this kid went too far. He knocked out two of my teeth. The guys couldn't hold back. What's his situation now?"

Officer Song glanced at the entrance to the corridor, and seeing no one around, said, "She just went into the operating room, and the situation is a bit dangerous. You should prepare to make your escape."

"Damn it, didn't I tell you I had errands to run today? Why are there police officers here?"

Officer Song said, "The new girl is running around without following orders. You weren't recorded, were you?"

"I don't know. But let me tell you, Lao Song, if this messes up, you won't escape responsibility either. Don't think that five thousand yuan is easy to get," Tiger threatened.

"Don't yell at me. If this kid doesn't wake up, we're all fucking done for," Officer Song cursed before hanging up the phone.

At this moment, in a rented room in the urban village, all ten people who attacked Shen Lang were present. Tiger looked at the nine people surrounding him and cursed, "Who the hell did this?"

The group looked at each other in bewilderment.

"Boss, let's give them a call. After all, we're doing their bidding," one of the underlings said.

"Damn, do you even need to tell me?" Tiger cursed, then picked up his phone and dialed a number: "Sister Liu, this has blown up."

"What's wrong?" Liu Huimin, who was holding a meeting with her employees at the Yas Hotel, walked out of the meeting room with her phone in hand.

"Sister Liu, that kid's life is hanging in the balance. The cops say he's in mortal danger," Tiger said. "Sister Liu, you have to save us!"

Liu Huimin pondered for a moment and said, "I understand. You should hide for a few days."

He then hung up the phone and went back into the conference room.

"Damn it," Tiger cursed under his breath as he looked at the other man's indifferent expression.

Outside the neurosurgery operating room of the People's Hospital of X City, Lin Dantong waited anxiously.

Half an hour later, the doctor came out of the operating room.

"Doctor, how is he?" Lin Dantong asked anxiously.

The doctor shook his head and said, "The injured person has been rescued, but is in a daze and may become a vegetable."

"How could this happen?" Lin Dantong asked sadly. "Is there really no other way?"

The doctor said, "It depends on the injured person's will to live; there's nothing we can do."

Upon hearing this, Lin Dantong slumped into her chair. It wasn't that she was afraid of taking responsibility, but rather that this had happened within her jurisdiction, which made her, a first-time police officer, feel extremely guilty.

"Beep! Successfully bound to the All Things Exchange!"

While unconscious, Shen Lang heard an electronic voice.

"Who are you?"

"Ding-dong! Hello, Master. I am the guide assistant of the All Things Trading System, and my name is Little Elf." In Shen Lang's dark consciousness, a small green figure suddenly appeared.

"The Everything Trading System? What is that?" Shen Lang asked, puzzled.

"The All Things Trading System, as the name suggests, is a system that allows trading of all things in the world, including appearance, intelligence, physical ability, life, and everything else—anything that the owner can see can be traded," the little elf said.

"Is this system really that amazing?" Shen Lang couldn't help but ask, "Can even life be traded?"

The little sprite nodded and said, "Yes, Master. As long as the other party agrees, you can buy or sell everything he has. The system is just an auxiliary tool for you; you can decide the value of anything within it yourself."

"Holy crap, that's awesome!" Shen Lang exclaimed inwardly. "Doesn't that mean we're taking off?"

"The owner of this little sprite will not only take flight, but will also stand at the pinnacle of all realms, admired by countless powerful beings," the little sprite said.

Shen Lang asked, "How do I use this system?"

The little sprite explained, "The owner of the system can see the inner desires of all living beings and gain the ability to communicate with all things. The system will also actively search for information on high-quality traders within a radius of one kilometer, and the owner can choose to trade with them."

"Oh, does the system have a newbie gift pack or any rewards?" Shen Lang asked.

The little elf gave Shen Lang a disdainful look and said, "Master, please don't be poisoned by online novels. There is no such thing as getting something for nothing in this world. The system doesn't offer any rewards or gift packs; everything must be earned by you."

"Haha!" Shen Lang laughed awkwardly, "You're right."

"Alright, Master, you should wake up now, or this policewoman will start crying." With a wave of her hand, Shen Lang's consciousness returned to his body.

The first thing Shen Lang smelled was a pungent disinfectant odor, mixed with a faint shampoo scent.

"Wake up, waaaaah~ This is my first day at work, if anything happens to you I'll lose my job." Then Shen Lang heard a woman's voice in his ear.

Turning his head, he saw a female police officer in uniform burying her face in her hands and sobbing softly beside his bed.

"Hello, officer, where is this?" Shen Lang asked weakly.

"You're awake!" Lin Dantong exclaimed excitedly upon hearing Shen Lang's voice. "You're finally awake! You scared me to death!"

"Uh." Shen Lang was a little confused.

"This is a hospital. I brought you here," Lin Dantong said. "The doctor said you might become a vegetable, but I didn't expect you to wake up now. That's wonderful."

"Thank you, officer," Shen Lang said weakly.

"You're welcome. This is what a police officer should do!" Lin Dantong smiled through her tears. "Wait here, I'll go get the doctor to give you a check-up."
