Chapter 5
When Luo Guokang arrived, Li Hao had already returned to the hotel and turned off the live broadcast. However, before turning off the live broadcast, Lin Lan told her to start broadcasting in 2 hours.
After watching the video, Luo Guokang frowned at the bloody and brutal scenes, then his face darkened as he saw the special methods used by the armored man. Finally, he watched the person who drank the potion stop bleeding and then grow a pink, tender hand. His expression grew even more serious.
"You did a great job providing timely feedback on this matter. The effectiveness of this drug will be a key area of focus for investigation," Luo Kangping said. He initially praised their proactive work, but he also identified problems, particularly with Wang Bing.
Luo Kangping pondered for a moment. "I've already reported this matter to the higher-ups, but they haven't issued any directives yet. They're also investigating the authenticity of the matter, so until the matter is determined, our department will be responsible for it."
After hearing the leader's words, Luo Bing and Lin Lan looked at each other.
Obviously, when there are no correct instructions from above, they can only observe.
Director Luo thought for a moment and added, "I'll report today's events to the higher-ups. If, and I mean if, what Li Hao said about the time travel is true, and this incident involving the potion is true, I'll see if I can use this to get them to investigate faster."
Even now, they still couldn't be sure if the entire incident was real. Video Photoshop technology was so advanced these days that it was possible for other countries to spend hundreds of millions of dollars to orchestrate a plan to deal with them. And the possibility of this happening was even higher than that of a time traveler.
But after all, Li Hao is missing now, and he has to find a way to bring Li Hao back.
He asked the others to leave first, leaving Wang Bing behind. "How is Li Hao now? I think she's not feeling well. Your actions this time were a bit extreme. No matter what, I've said before, her safety is always the top priority."
Wang Bing, Lin Lan, and Li Maoxue all joined the company at the same time. They're still just ordinary employees. But Wang Bing has made the most progress. This young man is a bit too aggressive. While his intentions are good, his approach to handling matters is often incomplete and often leads to other issues.
However, he is still willing to train this young man, hoping that he can be calmer after this warning.
"She's fine, not hurt, just a little frightened. She's back at the hotel now. We agreed to start the broadcast in two hours." Wang Bing said, noting that Li Hao was taking any risks. "I know, but this wasn't dangerous. Besides, there wasn't much else Li Hao could do under the circumstances."
Luo Kangping pondered for a moment, "I hope you can focus more on Li Hao's safety. This incident has shown that she is not that safe."
"By the way, Director, I think we can let Li Hao bring back a special thing from another world. Even if it is a conspiracy, it is impossible for the other party to forge that kind of potion." Wang Bing had other ideas. He wanted to prove that Li Hao was a time traveler.
If Li Hao just disappeared for a while and then reappeared, it would actually not help in proving her identity. Without substantial evidence, it would be difficult to verify it based on the live video alone.
"There's no need to worry about the medicine." Director Luo was not that anxious.
"We asked Li Hao to exchange the gold coins yesterday. We just need to find a store and buy a bottle of potion," Wang Bing explained, and assured him solemnly, "There will be absolutely no danger."
"You can ask Li Hao to bring back some things as proof. But remember, Li Hao's safety is the top priority." Director Luo nodded and said.
When Luo Bing came out, he was thinking about how to help Li Hao buy the medicine smoothly. The best way was to go to the shop of the snake-tailed woman.
At this moment, Li Maoxue appeared from the side again. "What did the director say?"
"The director asked us to cooperate with Li Hao to buy a bottle of medicine." Wang Bing replied. "But I don't know where to start."
The director clearly said to just bring something back, but Wang Bing didn't think there was anything more convincing than the medicine. And if he just stayed with Li Hao and chatted for ten days like this, he felt it was too lazy.
"Hmm... I have a way. Come here and I'll show you something." Li Maoxue cleared his throat, raised his head and said with a look of control.
Seeing him like this, Wang Bing wanted to put a sack on him and beat him up.
But thinking that he needed help, he didn't say anything. He followed Li Maoxue to the conference room to see what tricks he would come up with. Lin Lan was also in the conference room.
Li Maoxue realized from the first moment that this was a historic opportunity. Even if there was only a ten percent chance, a possibility that would change the world appeared before him. If he didn't seize it, he would be a fool.
He shamelessly got the account, and since the project hadn't been established yet and the authenticity hadn't been confirmed, he got the opportunity. He didn't sleep all night that day, because he knew that now was the best opportunity to make some achievements.
After obtaining the account, he carefully studied the video. As a master of video editing, he quickly exported the corresponding audio, focusing on the frequently appearing keywords in the conversation. Using the latest AI analysis, he successfully compiled a list of common phrases and marked them with pinyin slogans.
"This is the result of an all-night effort. These are twenty common phrases. Among them are the numbers 1 through 9. I've noticed some grammatical variations, but they should be sufficient for communication." Li Maoxue extracted keyframes to complement the edited subtitles. He had already translated some of the dialogue, but most still needed further verification. However, the twenty common phrases were still acceptable for Li Hao to use.
"Wow, that's amazing." Lin Lan looked at Li Maoxue in amazement and admiration. She had never imagined that he had put so much effort into this. Fortunately, she had given him the account number at the time, which solved an important problem.
These common expressions are mostly simple phrases like "I," "you," "this," "that," "yes," and "no." However, they have a completely different meaning.
As long as he coordinates the gestures well, Li Hao’s chances of buying the medicine will increase.
Wang Bing, on the other hand, looked at Li Maoxue's arrogant look and felt a little upset, as if he had done something wrong, or felt like he was being chased.
"See if you can talk to the director and include me in this project." Li Maoxue said, pressing forward.
"OK."
"no."
Two voices rang out: Lin Lan said yes, and Wang Bing said no. Wang Bing realized his mistake and added, "This project hasn't been approved yet, and the higher-ups haven't said what they're going to do about it. We're just observing and seeing."
"I think it's a good idea to let Li Maoxue join in. He has helped a lot. We still need his help with language translation." Lin Lan did not notice Wang Bing's emotions.
But Li Maoxue looked at Wang Bing with an inquiring look. He raised his glasses and understood what was going on.
Afterwards, Lin Lan went to see Director Luo and reported what Li Maoxue had done. She also successfully helped Li Maoxue get formal approval to join the project.
Two hours later, Li Hao returned from the restaurant and vomited violently in his room. He had vomited up everything he had eaten that day. He was so hungry that he had no energy left and had to rely on the hotel water to fill his stomach.
But even so, Li Hao didn't plan to go out to eat at that restaurant again. She turned on the live broadcast as agreed.
As soon as the show started, there were several more lines of comments.
--Hello, I'm Li Maoxue. I've compiled a list of commonly used phrases from your livestream yesterday. Could you please write them down?
This time, the comment wasn't originally posted from Sister Lan's account, but from someone named Li Maoxue. She hadn't expected them to be able to translate some languages based on yesterday's livestream. This gave Li Hao even more respect for the skills of the person behind the comment. It was truly impressive.
At this moment, Wang Bing felt more and more irritated when he saw Li Maoxue typing the conversation using his account.
Li Hao took out the eyebrow pencil and the pack of tissues from her bag. She copied down the contents of the comment and continued after she finished copying.
--Please remember these conversations. Look for and buy a few bottles of the potion we just saw.
Looking at the comments, she realized they were teaching her to buy the potion. The potion was indeed magical, capable of regenerating severed limbs. But her mind was filled with bloody images, and thinking of this, she ran to the bathroom to vomit again.
After she washed her face, Lin Lan looked at Li Hao's pale face and immediately understood something. She quickly snatched the computer from Li Xuemao's hand.
She sympathized with Li Hao and scolded the others, saying, "Li Hao just saw something so gory. Can't you ask for anything later?"
Are you okay? That scene was terrifying. You should rest for a while. Rest well and stop thinking about other things.
"Well, okay, I'll turn off the broadcast for now. I'll practice these conversations first." Looking at the words on the barrage, Li Hao breathed a sigh of relief.
She didn't even dare to leave the house. If something like this could happen in a restaurant, other places wouldn't be much better. Although there were security personnel, she was worried that she might get involved. She needed to rest and calm down.
After seeing Lin Lan type this, Li Hao immediately turned off the broadcast. Wang Bing was dissatisfied, "We can communicate now, we just need to go buy some medicine."
"She just saw someone die, and it was a bloody scene. She was left alone in a strange place, helpless and helpless. We still have to ask her to work. You are talking without any concern." Lin Lan still felt a little guilty. Li Hao was obviously holding on to them as a life-saving straw.
But none of them seemed to think from each other's perspective.
It was only when she saw the other person's pale face that she realized that the person in front of her was a living person. When someone got into trouble, the first thing they thought of was the authorities. Shouldn't their disregard for the other person's safety be more lenient?
"I think we should forget about asking her to buy the medicine. It's better to keep her safe for the next ten days."
"Okay, okay, then think of a better way to prove time travel. Have you seen anything else in this world besides potions?" Wang Bing stormed off. He was the one who discovered this first. Everything should have gone his way. Why were they all acting more enthusiastically than him?
Also, he was obviously considering Li Hao. She said that she traveled through time, so there must be proof. But from what they saw now, they didn't find anything special. Now there was only that potion.
What they didn’t know was that they already had a special robe, but unfortunately, both Li Hao and they treated it as an ordinary cloak.
And if that medicine was really brought back, then everything would be different. Thinking of this, Wang Bing made a decision.
After the live broadcast ended, Li Hao took the paper towel covered with words and started to study. They gave him 20 common words and 10 words with numbers.
In the other world, Li Hao had no entertainment. Even if she had a cell phone, she didn't dare use it because of the current battery level. And the wonderful other world outside had nothing to do with her.
Most of the time, I would just lie by the window, watching the passers-by outside and the various orcs and monsters.
On the third day, she woke up early in the morning, hungry. She only managed to suppress the churning of her stomach acid by gulping down a few gulps of water. After some thought, she decided to eat early. It was the same restaurant as last time, but there was no other choice; she couldn't understand the menu at another restaurant.
This time she also planned to try buying takeout. Li Hao started the live broadcast early, and Lin Lan and the other two entered the live broadcast room.
Because the three of them are currently discussing how to purchase the medicine safely.
Lin Lan set up notifications for Li Hao's live broadcast, so her phone rang as soon as it started. She quickly turned on her computer, and at this time Wang Bing also turned on his computer. He had an account from the beginning.
This time I logged in with my own account. Lin Lan just sent out a barrage.
--Li Hao, how are you today?
Wang Bing also sent a message directly over there.
--We need to get that potion no matter what. The time travel requires verification. Without that potion, how can we tell the truth of your words, or whether you are a scam and the potion is fake.
This long string of words was sent from the account Wang Bing logged into, which was the system's default number. Looking at this long comment, Li Hao stopped in his tracks.
"You don't believe I'm telling the truth?" The words sent from this digital account were like a sharp knife piercing her eyes.
