Chapter 84 Heavy Expectations
Not knowing how many times this month they had visited the hospital, the three of them once again stepped on the floor of the medical center and looked at each other with surprise at the familiar medical staff.
Although they knew about Qi Heng's physical condition, after their eyes met, they still subconsciously became excited.
The medical staff looked embarrassed and shook their heads slowly.
It was a familiar reply, and the three of them sighed.
"I've received the news. You are the champions of this year's competition. You are really amazing!" The medical boy waved his hands in panic, trying to cheer up the atmosphere. "If that young boy knew, he would definitely wake up soon and share the joy with you!"
"So don't be discouraged. Team Leader Xinyi has checked on him several times. He's in very good condition, nothing serious. He might wake up in the next second."
"Thank you, we know that."
Lin Muyu smiled gently and thanked the other party for his kindness. Noticing the young man's curiosity that he was trying hard to hide, he took the dagger handed to him by his teammate and held it up for him to examine openly.
"Ah, thank you!" The medical guy scratched his head embarrassedly, and finally he couldn't resist the thoughts in his heart. He moved closer to observe this legendary prop, and kept exclaiming in amazement.
Soon, their curiosity was satisfied, and after a few polite conversations, the trio said goodbye to the young man.
Just as they were about to walk towards the ward, the next second, two figures walked out from the corner and met the eyes of several people.
It was Xinyi, who we just talked about, and Lu Qingyuan, who we just met yesterday. It's rare for these two to meet each other.
"Oh, you guys are here?"
It seemed that from the very beginning, Xinyi had never taken off her white coat. After the attack, there were a bunch of people with special abilities lying in the medical hospital waiting for treatment, which made the girl look tired, and the dark circles under her eyes showed that she was busy with work.
She took off her mask and nodded to the trio: "I just came out from Qi Heng's place."
"Thank you for your hard work." Ye Yunhe walked over, a faint blue light condensed in his palm. After he put his hand on Xinyi's shoulder, it penetrated into the other's body, bringing a moment of comfort to the tired body.
She tilted her head to look at Lu Qingyuan: "Sister Qingyuan, why are you here? Are you feeling unwell too?"
"Yeah, I used up too much energy yesterday." The woman looked quite energetic, with her algae-green hair swaying at the back of her head. "I came here to get some potions and visit your teammate. I ran into Xinyi on the way, so I decided to go with her."
"I watched your award ceremony not long ago. Congratulations, the new champion team. How is the supernatural item? Is it comfortable to use? Does it feel warm or cold? Does it have the function of recognizing the owner?"
It seems that even if she is not in good condition, it cannot stop Lu Qingyuan from being a chatterbox.
Several people present were ashamed, and Lin Muyu once again picked up the dagger and allowed it to undergo a new round of observation.
"Oh - is this a super S-level supernatural item? It is indeed unusual when viewed up close."
Xinyi touched her chin and sighed, feeling the cool breeze blowing towards her almost blowing her eyes shut, and she couldn't help but feel surprised.
In fact, she didn't feel much about these props. When the audience exclaimed, she just fell back on the recliner and gave a perfunctory cheer. But such a good thing in the hands of a good friend can be regarded as a powerful reassurance.
Relaxation time is always short and there is still a lot to do. So after a few words of small talk, Xinyi stretched her body and prepared to leave. Before leaving, he used his eyes to stop Lu Qingyuan, who was staring at the dagger, and made the other party clear his throat and retract his hand.
"I know, I know. I'll go get the medicine with you right now—"
As if regretting the character she had created for herself, Lu Qingyuan followed him while looking back reluctantly. The dagger in her eyes seemed to have a glowing filter on, gradually turning into spots of light in her eyes.
"Xiao Ye and An Muyu - I will be in charge of your next copy - have a good rest these few days and wait for me to come find you and then I -"
The two figures came and went in a hurry, and disappeared around the corner in the blink of an eye.
Loud noises were not allowed in the hospital, so Lu Qingyuan folded the space specially to pass the message. The voice echoed and almost resounded through the top of his head. It didn't sound like a notice, but more like going to heaven.
Before he could finish his words, the energy that he had squeezed out suddenly dissipated. It was unclear whether it was due to punishment from Team Leader Xinyi or if he really didn't have much energy left.
“…”
The trio and the medical boy looked at each other.
——
In short, after going through a series of events, the protagonists successfully arrived at the ward.
On the white hospital bed, the young man was sleeping with his eyes closed, his posture peaceful. The sun is shining outside the window, and the green plants are lush, bringing people back to the scene of the group battle.
Ye Yunhe stepped forward and gently placed the dagger into Qi Heng's palm, as if he wanted the boy's fingerprints to be left on the hilt as well, to represent that they had received this prop of honor together.
She clenched her fist for a few breaths, then gently placed the dagger beside the pillow.
"It should be his." Ye Yunhe said.
It should be so.
If Qi Heng had not noticed something was wrong first, they would all have been sucked into the black fog, making the situation even more serious, not to mention waking up to provide support later.
But the price now is not much better.
Why is it Qi Heng who takes responsibility every time? He is obviously the one who needs protection the most in the team. The three of them couldn't help but think so.
The feeling of frustration, guilt... the belated realization wraps around the heart, making one feel aching inside. They would have accepted everything, but now they cannot accept the result of being alone.
The energy affinity body that Bai Zhou mentioned is a double-edged sword. No one can confirm the time when the boy will wake up. There are too many instabilities in the black fog, and people still cannot figure it out. There is no choice but to wait.
"He said he wanted to go to the rooftop of the east building."
Lin Muyu suddenly spoke, breaking the silence.
"In the illusion, we chatted on a tall tree, and he said he had an obsession that he had to fulfill. So, believe him."
"He'll wake up soon."
Lin Muyu had told the two of them about that special conversation during their break yesterday. Si and An were about to prepare a tent as their accommodation for that night, but were almost stopped by Ye Yunhe.
"Yes. At dusk, the wind on the rooftop is always strong, and it feels great." Si Yu'an sat beside the bed and gently poked Qi Heng's cheek. "It's rare for Xiao Heng to have a wish, so as partners, we must do everything we can to make it come true."
The fingertips still felt familiar. He looked at the infusion needle on the back of the boy's hand and the medicine that was continuously injected into his body. He couldn't help but worry about the future of his cheek flesh.
He relies on medicine every day to survive. If he continues like this... Xiaoheng's cheeks will become thinner, right?
What did Qi Heng say when he was first called to the government? The hosts and guests had a great time, they ate well, drank well and slept comfortably, and they gained three pounds in a few days, but none of that was achieved?
The sudden focus of attention made Si and An, who had just perked up, dejected again, and they even lost the strength to poke their cheeks. He pulled up the boy's quilt, thought for a moment, and silently took out his cell phone.
I'll go ask Xinyi if she has any other medicines later. Now I'll take a picture of Xiaoheng's appearance for comparison later.
Ye Yunhe was a little confused at first, but after understanding his teammates' motives, his brain circuits instantly connected. The next second, he reached into his pocket, ready to give a big pat on Qi Heng's coma version 2.0.
But the strange thing is that the first thing that the fingers touched was not the hard body, but an inexplicable paper packaging with a slightly slippery material.
"?" Ye Yunhe was stunned for a moment, and quickly opened his pocket and looked down.
What he thought was completely different.
The bright red color suddenly caught everyone's attention, and the festive packaging was very familiar, just like a must-have at home during the Chinese New Year.
Red envelope.
"???"
Vigilance turned into confusion in an instant. Ye Yunhe and his teammates looked at each other and saw their own strange expressions in each other's eyes. The next second, she slowly turned her back, pinched the red envelope, and pulled it out of her pocket.
It feels very heavy when you pick it up, making you suspect that the red envelope is about to burst. The shape of the envelope is similar to that of coins, with a large stack of money wrapped inside.
Such a conspicuous thing, even its weight is amazing enough, but it has only been discovered now?
Just recall the past for a few moments and you can lock onto the final target without even thinking about it.
The three of them stared at the red envelope and fell into deep thought.
Who else would do such a bizarre thing except in the daytime?
The right distance, similar style, unconscious movements, and he was a senior who said goodbye not long ago. There was absolutely no second choice.
"…Great, do you want to open it and take a look?"
Si and An squeezed the thick red envelopes. It is a very common style and can be seen everywhere during the Chinese New Year. The front is printed with golden words "Congratulations on your prosperity" and a round, bright gold ingot.
Lin Muyu reached out and turned the red envelope over.
Sure enough, there was a line of elegant handwriting on the back, written with a common black ballpoint pen. It should have been written casually in the office.
"Goodbye^_^"
Even though the name is not written, it is no different from having the name written.
The three of them were helpless.
"I didn't expect that I would still receive a red envelope from my senior at this age." Lin Muyu observed the handwriting, "Looking at the color, it should have been prepared a long time ago."
Since it is for them, just open it and take a look. After all, who could find Mr. Day who didn't want to see anyone in such a big place?
Ye Yunhe took a deep breath and felt a little nervous for some reason. To be honest, this was her first time receiving a red envelope, and it was quite strange.
With a slight twist of the fingertips, the tightly closed papers loosened their restraints, and the two pieces of red paper spread outward, revealing the real scene inside.
Instantly, energy overflowed, broke free from the package, and surrounded the three people. The familiar bright yellow color, revealing nobility and exuding the fragrance of money, appeared before their eyes, so heavy and so compactly nested in the small red envelope. It was a luxury item that was more real than real gold and silver.
“…”
This silence was very different from the previous ones.
Ye Yunhe suddenly felt that his hands were very heavy, a weight that was heavier than all his belongings combined.
The scene remained static for a few seconds. Lin Muyu's eyes widened slightly, and Si Yu'an uttered emotional interjections in shock.
...Is this what the seniors expect?
It's too heavy.
