Chapter 224: Eyes of Fortuna



"Ma'am, please come this way. We will first perform a basic full body examination on you."

The nurse's voice interrupted her endless reverie.

Tu Ran followed her into a fully enclosed room filled with various instruments.

"Please take off your mask, ma'am," the nurse reminded.

Tu Ran paused.

"You can remove it without worry," Ling's voice quickly sounded from the headset, "I have created a new identity for you. Your name is now Li Lin, and you are an ordinary citizen of the Federation. Your facial features cannot be identified as the pioneer Tu Ran."

Tu Ran felt relieved and took off her mask.

A green beam of light scanned her face from top to bottom as her face was exposed.

"Hello, Ms. Li Lin. Please lie down on the bed, close your eyes, and don't move. We are about to scan your body."

Tu Ran followed instructions and lay down on a one-meter-wide stretcher, which was automatically pushed into a fully enclosed instrument.

Tu Ran closed her eyes and heard a series of "beeping" sounds, some high, some low, some long, some short, in her ears.

It lasted for about ten minutes, and Tu Ran was almost falling asleep. The stretcher under her began to move. Tu Ran opened her eyes and she came out.

"The check has been completed and the data is being uploaded. Please wait."

Tu Ran sat up from the bed. The nurse who had been waiting beside her smiled and said, "Ms. Li Lin, the physical examination data has been analyzed. Now you can go to Dean Nick's studio."

Tu Ran's eyes lit up; they were finally going to meet.

"plz follow me."

The door of the examination room opened automatically, and Tu Ran followed the nurse to Nick Wells' studio.

Along the way, Tu Ran was observing his surroundings and silently memorizing the route.

The artificial intelligence responsible for the internal monitoring of Xixinange Hospital is Andre. Zero can only convey a few words to Tu Ran and can't play any other role.

After dealing with Nick Wells, she needed to leave here quickly, and she had to rely on her own memory for the route.

They entered the elevator. The nurse didn't press any buttons or say which floor she wanted to go to. The elevator went up automatically and stopped on the fifth floor.

This means that the elevator is under Andre's full control, so it would be safer for her to take the stairs when she leaves.

Fortunately, it’s on the fifth floor, which is not very high.

After walking out of the elevator, Tu Ran followed the nurse and turned left, then turned left again, then walked into a deep corridor. When she reached the top, she saw a dark red wooden door.

The nurse opened the door for her and asked her to come in, while she stood outside waiting.

Tu Ran stepped in and saw an extra-long entrance with many oil paintings hanging on the walls on both sides.

Tu Ran didn't have much artistic talent, but she thought it was pretty nice. She glanced at it quickly, focusing her attention on the hall that was about to appear.

This place was not like the doctor's office she had in mind, where there was only a desk and the doctor sat behind it.

This place is more like a luxurious presidential suite in a hotel.

What catches your eye is the gray and white sofas arranged in a rectangle, surrounding the dark brown irregular solid wood coffee table.

Tu Ran didn't see the person she wanted to see.

Instead, before she stepped onto the pure white carpet in the living room, two crossed hands blocked her way.

Tu Ran looked up along her arm and saw two men in black suits. They were a head taller than her, with burly build and wearing microphone headphones. They should be bodyguards or something like that.

"Take off your weapons before going in." One of them spoke, his eagle-like eyes lowered, looking down at Tu Ran, his voice very deep.

Tu Ran didn't say much, but threw the pistol and dagger on his waist onto the tray held by another person.

Tu Ran spread out her arms, "Can I come in now?"

“And a headset.”

Tu Ran had no choice but to take off the hidden headset in her ear and throw it into the plate. "What about this time?"

The two men didn't say anything, but stepped aside at the same time to make way.

Nick Wells was not in the living room.

Tu Ran looked around and vaguely saw a figure in the study through the translucent glass membrane. The person was sitting at the desk, looking down at something.

It must be Nick Wells.

The glass is translucent, so people outside can see inside, which can prevent any accidents from happening to Nick Wells inside without the bodyguards outside knowing about it. And it is not completely transparent, so privacy can be maintained.

Tu Ran walked around the sofa in the middle and headed towards the study, thinking about how to deal with Nick Wells later.

First of all, her movements cannot be too big, otherwise the bodyguards outside will notice.

When she reached the study door, Tu Ran already had an idea.

The study door has a sensor device and opens automatically.

Tu Ran immediately saw Nick Wells, who was wearing comfortable home clothes.

Tu Ran felt like a thousand horses were running through her heart.

Did she come to the wrong place?

Shouldn't this be a dean's office?

Why can Nick Wells be so casual?

After all, she spent 250,000 federal dollars. Can't you respect her a little?

"Sit down." Nick Wells raised his head casually and pointed to the seat opposite him.

Tu Ran let out a long sigh, calmed herself down, and sat opposite him.

"I read your physical examination report. You are healthy and there is nothing wrong. The nurse said that you think you have mental problems. Can you elaborate on why you think so?"

Nick Wells put down the electronic screen in his hand, crossed his arms and looked at Tu Ran.

Tu Ran also looked at him.

To be precise, I was looking at the top of his head.

She cannot see whether a person has superpowers through video or surveillance. Her "superpower identification" can only work when they meet face to face.

Just as she had expected, Nick Wells had an incredible number of superpowers.

【Eye of Fortuna】

Introduction: Seeing through the life and death of others, in the eyes of the owner, the body of the dying person will become transparent.

Level: Advanced

Tu Ran exclaimed in her heart, "Oh my god! What a supernatural power!"

【Seven Seconds】

Introduction: You have the ability to foresee the future, and you also have the ability to forget the future. Opportunities often flash by, seven seconds, you only have seven seconds. In these seven seconds, you can see something happening in the future, and you will forget it after seven seconds. Please cherish every second, and timely recording is essential.

Level: Beginner

Note: The name is for reference only. The foreseeable duration is variable, with a maximum of seven seconds and a minimum of two seconds.

After seeing the introduction of this supernatural power, Tu Ran inexplicably suspected that this supernatural power might belong to Xi Chunzhi.

She still remembered the four words "infected by alien species" scribbled on the notebook Xi Chunzhi gave her.

At that time, there were no infected aliens in the Federation. The infected aliens only appeared after she completed her mission in Regaken State. It was something that happened in the future.

Xi Chunzhi wrote it down suddenly, and there was no sign of it before, which shows that it happened suddenly, which is consistent with the description of supernatural powers.

May Day leave (ˊˋ*)
