Seeing that Wang Zheng didn't leave after bringing the person over, but instead sat down right outside the emergency room, the second lieutenant leading the temporary ambulance also came over and said to Wang Zheng with a smile:
"Lieutenant Wang, what's wrong with this person? Even with your amazing healing skills, you couldn't save him?"
"And you were incredibly fast! I just received a call from the Party Committee, notified the hospital, and rushed over. I didn't expect you to get there first."
Wang Zheng looked at the smiling, lean man in front of him and recognized him at a glance.
This unfortunate fellow was the warrior who was struck in the chest by the Heavenly Demon Qi Bin during the capture operation at Zhongshan Wharf, his chest pierced through.
Wang Zheng then quickly scanned the other party's attributes.
Hmm... A spiritual energy value of just over 1200, with the highest five-dimensional attributes being 44 points of agility and 41 points of strength, making him a fairly average C-level Awakener.
Judging from his youthful appearance, he's probably no more than 20 years old. Normally, a senior in college who has naturally awakened is only just reaching Rank C, so their ages should be similar. (He naturally awakened at 16 and was specially recruited; he'd be 20 in his senior year.)
Judging from this, the lieutenant's strength shouldn't be too weak.
Wang Zheng didn't compare himself to ordinary people. He considered himself a genius among geniuses, so naturally he couldn't be compared with ordinary people.
Wang Zheng was somewhat puzzled by the second lieutenant's beaming smile, wondering why the other man was being so enthusiastic towards him. Nevertheless, he smiled and replied:
"We've met before, right? I remember you."
As for that person, he is likely the only eyewitness to yet another case involving a demon, which is why I was in a bit of a rush when I came back.
His frostbite was so severe that it had caused an internal infection, and my Holy Light spell had no effect on it, so I had to take him to the hospital.
The lieutenant wasn't actually interested in the patient; he just wanted to find something to talk about with his idol.
Upon hearing that Wang Zheng still remembered him, the young lieutenant's face lit up with joy, and he quickly stood up to salute Wang Zheng.
"Hello Lieutenant Wang Zheng, I am Li Li from the Special Operations Team. It is an honor to continue fighting alongside you."
I also want to thank you for helping me last time. I heard from the Party and the team that if it weren't for your treatment, even if I could recover, I would have lost most of my spiritual energy, and if I was unlucky, I would have been left with a chronic illness and wouldn't even be able to live a normal life.
So I've always wanted to thank you in person, but you're not usually in the military region, so I haven't found a suitable opportunity!
Li Li was so grateful to Wang Zheng not only because Wang Zheng saved his life, but also because of Wang Zheng's heroic performance in that operation, which earned him a second-class merit and led to his promotion to lieutenant.
Given his age, he would have had to endure a few more years, at least until he reached the threshold of a B-level Awakener before he would have a chance to advance.
However, thanks to Wang Zheng, he not only escaped with his life but was also promoted ahead of schedule. That's why he admires Wang Zheng, a lieutenant who is younger than him, so much and regards him as an idol.
Wang Zheng was a little uncomfortable with Li Li's sudden show of goodwill and quickly waved his hand.
He didn't bring this up to claim credit; he simply wanted to let people know that he knew him.
Now, after being teased by this devoted second lieutenant, Wang Zheng himself felt a little embarrassed.
At the Zhongshan Wharf, Li Li was in critical condition after being pierced through the chest by the Heavenly Demon. A black mist of the Heavenly Demon lingered around the wound, constantly devouring his spiritual energy and flesh, and greatly weakening his various healing abilities.
In the end, Wang Zheng casually cast a few beams of holy light, which purified the black mist and healed his external injuries, allowing him to receive timely treatment.
Wang Zheng had only done it on a whim and never took it seriously, but Li Li always remembered this life-saving grace.
That's why he took on the task of picking up the people after receiving the notification from Dang Liantao at the military region, and even came over to greet Wang Zheng after he sat down.
Although Li Li was very enthusiastic, Wang Zheng was only a nominal staff member, and even his comrades in the same department only knew a handful of people.
In addition, he did not serve in the military region at all, nor did he have a complete military career. He was even in school and did not come to the military region. Therefore, the two of them did not have much in common.
Just as Wang Zheng and Lieutenant Li were having an awkward, one-sided conversation, the door to the emergency room was suddenly pushed open.
"The patient is out of danger but is still in a coma. However, his high fever has subsided, and we have arranged for the most professional medical staff and Awakened Ones to stay here to watch over him. We believe he will wake up soon."
