Chapter 28
The green light illuminated Jiang Yunu's face. It was a vibrant color that reminded people of forests and green meadows, and it was painted on Jiang Yunu's white hair with vitality.
Jiang Yunu was stunned by the classification result.
She asked the instrument, which would not answer, with some doubt: "Really?"
She felt as if she had made a wish at the last minute, asked some god in the universe for something, and it actually came true, which was unreal.
The detector had spent long enough time with Jiang Yunu, and it seemed too lazy to entertain her little trouble for another minute. The next second, the entire screen of the instrument flashed, and the operating indicator light turned yellow, sounding an alarm of malfunction.
A staff member wearing special equipment maintenance uniform hurried over, debugged the equipment outside, manually opened the hatch, and took Jiang Yunu out.
Joyson and Jordyn hurried over.
Joyson asked nervously, "Are you okay?"
Jiang Yunu stretched his body after standing in the narrow instrument for a long time and said, "It should be fine."
Aunt Daisy asked, "What happened to you in there? Did something happen?"
Jiang Yunu didn't know how long she had been taking the classification test, she just felt that it seemed to take her longer than others.
However, Joyson told her, "You were in there for a full thirteen minutes!"
Under normal circumstances, the average time taken for a classification test is half a minute. Even if the person being tested is slow and takes a little time when entering and exiting the instrument, the test will not take more than three minutes at most.
Jiang Yunu spent more than four times the longest time alone. The team she was originally in was reorganized, and some people were diverted to the instrument used by Joyson.
Only then did Jiang Yunu realize how much longer her testing took than usual.
But she felt that it wasn't her fault.
"Could it be that the instrument here was already having a minor malfunction, and it just happened to get stuck when it got to me?" By the time Jiang Yunu was escorted out of the hatch, the detector had stopped flashing yellow lights. Hospital staff had gone in and tested its operation twice, and it was now working again. She turned around and glanced at the instrument that had temporarily malfunctioned. Remembering the four colors that had cycled before her eyes for so long, she couldn't help but rub her eyes.
The little golden retriever emerged from nowhere and muttered, "This piece of equipment was added to the Central Hospital two years ago. It's been in service for less than three years, so it's as new as it can be. It's a piece of equipment that's never been reported wrong."
Jiang Yunu put down her hands that were rubbing her eyes, and recalled that when the maintenance staff who came to open the door, their faces were indeed full of disbelief, and they looked at her again and again.
Jiang Yunu could only say, "It seems that I am the terminator of its zero error record."
After all, Jiang Yunu entered the instrument for testing and did not commit any violations from beginning to end. Every move he made was in accordance with the instructions.
But the instrument got stuck with her, and the test seemed to become less smooth. Who could blame the inexplicable failure of the instrument on a child who did nothing?
Qiao Yisen noticed Jiang Yunu rubbing his eyes and asked with concern, "Are your eyes uncomfortable?"
Jiang Yunu blinked a few times and answered casually, "I stared at the screen for too long while waiting inside the instrument. The colors kept changing, and it almost made my eyes blurry."
As soon as these words were spoken, Joyson and the little golden retriever both showed strange expressions.
Both of them looked at Jiang Yunu in confusion.
Jiang Yunu was also surprised to be looked at like this: "What's wrong?"
"What colors are changing?" Joyson asked. "Don't you just walk into the detector, stand where the instructions say, place your hands on the operating table, and then the scanning light shines on you. Then you just stand still for a moment, and the screen directly displays your attributes, lighting up with one of the four elemental colors?"
"Yeah, that's right." The little golden retriever also said, "Even if the test speed is sometimes slow, shouldn't your element color appear directly? Why would it change?"
Jiang Yunu and the two of them looked at each other in bewilderment. Their tones sounded more resolute than each other, but she did see four colors flashing in rotation, and was truly dazzled by the turntable-like screen.
After thinking about it, Jiang Yunu said, "Then this instrument might really be broken."
The instrument had a rare malfunction and the screen display also had some problems.
Following this line of thought, it is not surprising that the colors Jiang Yunu saw kept changing.
This conclusion was also unanimously recognized by Joyson and the little golden retriever.
"Hey!" Joeysen suddenly slapped his head. He was accidentally distracted by the test from Jiang Yunu. When he came back to his senses, he found that he and Jiang Yunu had not shared the most important part with each other.
"I almost forgot what I was doing," Joyson said, his tone becoming more cheerful. "What is your classification attribute?"
The little golden retriever beside him also opened his mouth actively: "Your brother's results just came out, he - wuwuwu!"
The little golden retriever couldn't say the rest of the words because Joyson was quick to cover his mouth.
"Shut up!"
Joyson couldn't bear it any longer and said to the little golden retriever the two words he had wanted to say for a long time. He firmly defended his opportunity to personally share his supernatural attributes with Jiang Yunu.
Jiang Yunu looked down at her hands - her hands were still the same as she had seen countless times every day, with slender bones and not much flesh. Her palms were filled with fine calluses from climbing stairs in the garbage house every day, tinkering with many small gadgets by herself, and even earlier, climbing up and down the deserted islands and mountains.
These are a pair of hands that she herself cannot yet see, but instruments have verified that they contain energy.
Thinking about whether she really had superpowers, or superpowers with the attributes of her favorite elements, a smile appeared on Jiang Yunu's lips, just like when she saw herself at the age of 11, and she couldn't suppress the corners of her mouth even if she wanted to.
She announced with some pride, "I am an earth element."
Joyson was very supportive, his social phobia disappeared, and he immediately applauded Jiang Yunuo's classification results. He was very happy no matter what department Jiang Yunuo was classified into.
Jiang Yunu was also curious about Qiao Yisen's result: "What about you?"
Two minutes ago, Joyson was firmly defending his "right to tell in person", but when it was his turn, he was stuck for a moment.
"...My results might be a bit surprising," Joyson hesitated. "Although I don't tend to categorize things, I didn't expect this result."
Joyson's ability classification attribute is water.
Rumor has it that they are kind to others, and the entire group tends to be emotionally stable and possess water-based abilities with special healing talents.
Perhaps because he was born with red hair and had a mother with a hot temper, Joyson always felt that his element was either fire, earth, or wind. He never expected it to be water, which he had never considered.
Jiang Yunu felt that this attribute was quite suitable for Joeyson.
"You're so willing to take care of others, and you're so kind," Jiang Yunu said. "It's no surprise that you're a water-type ability user."
As soon as Joeyson's results came out, he showed them to Aunt Daisy and the little golden retriever who came over. Although Aunt Daisy also said that his attributes were good, after hearing what Jiang Yunu said, he seemed to be a little more confident in his attributes.
Jodais briefly left the children's side to consult with the person in charge regarding the situation between Jiang Yunu and the tester. Adults always have more considerations and concerns, so she deliberately went to the doctor on her own to ask if the sudden malfunction of the equipment would affect the children being tested. When the doctor hesitated to make a decision, Jodais used her eloquence to argue, "This was a sudden malfunction of the hospital equipment. If there were any potential risks, an innocent child shouldn't be burdened with them." This secured a free outpatient checkup for Jiang Yunu.
Qiao Daisi returned with the benefits she had fought for and took Jiang Yunu to see a doctor. Of course, Joeysen followed closely.
It was not convenient for the little golden retriever to follow along this time, so he waved goodbye to Jiang Yunu and Qiao Yisen at the door of the supernatural classification and testing hall.
Before parting, the little golden retriever shouted to the two of them: "My name is Xue Zhanxing, I look forward to seeing you next time——"
Before he finished speaking, he turned and dived into the crowd, and in the blink of an eye he disappeared in the bustling hospital crowd.
Aunt Dai Si continued to lead Jiang Yunu to the outpatient department. After a moment of reflection, she felt a little strange: "I've been chatting with you for such a long time, and you didn't even know his name before?"
Joyson: “Hmm…”
Jiang Yunu: "It's like this. Sometimes, people can chat with each other without using names."
Aunt Daisy shook her head, thinking that the way kids made friends nowadays was really peculiar, but fortunately she was also a generous and open-minded aunt.
She commented: "Interesting."
Jiang Yunu's diagnosis and examination results were all good. The sudden failure of the ability classification detector did not have a negative impact on her. On the contrary, when she heard that the equipment was not working properly, Jiang Yunu was surrounded by half of the staff in the department.
The doctor dispersed the crowd, showed his personal terminal, and wanted to add Jiang Yunu's personal contact information: "If you feel any discomfort later, you can come to the hospital for re-examination at any time, and we will still not charge any fees."
Jiang Yunu only had his empty wrist to show, so Aunt Dai Si raised her left hand and used her terminal to exchange contact information with the doctor.
As compensation for the "frightened children", Jiang Yunu was given a box of children's nutritional emulsion when he left the department.
Back in the car on the dilapidated street, Jiang Yunu tried to split the box of nutrient emulsion into two, leaving half to the Joyson family and taking only half back with him.
"Keep it all for yourself," Aunt Daisy said from the front row. "This is something the doctor gave you because he saw you were too thin. You should drink more so you can grow a little bit before school starts."
Joyson took action directly - he stuffed all the bottles that Jiang Yunu had just distributed back into the box.
All the itineraries for this trip have been completed and everything went smoothly.
Jiang Yunu obtained the resident status of Xiate City and had a personal ID. He also took advantage of the new resident benefits issued by the management center to undergo a physical examination and found out that he was over 11 years old. He also took the originally expensive ability classification test for free.
"Let's have dinner together tonight and celebrate," said Jodie.
Then suddenly the topic changed.
"And Joyson, don't forget your bet." Aunt Daisy looked at her son in the back seat through the rearview mirror and was delighted to find that one of the children's faces turned green in an instant.
