Chapter 186 : Chapter 186
Chapter 186
[Tsk tsk, Ji the little dog had such a big reaction when his wifey was taken away, and you still say you two are like fire and water! Your face is about to be slapped swollen!]
[We are like fire and water~~ (Pink Beaver Loopy.jpg)]
[The meme in the previous comment is filled to the brim with mockery hahaha, Ji Chuanze really... swore, pounded the ground, and crushed the steering wheel, he's so in love hahaha! (Laughing to tears)]
[Steering wheel: Is anyone going to speak up for me?]
[Am I the only one wondering who this Mr. Jiang is? He hasn't been mentioned in the plot before, right?]
[It should be related to Xuexue's background, maybe a partner in the bodyguard company his sister opened? Someone who can contact Ji Chuanze must be related to the bodyguard company.]
[Hiss, Little Ji isn't this Mr. Jiang's man, is he? He wouldn't betray Axue, would he?]
[Don't worry, person in front. Look at how worthless he looks, how could he betray my Xue ahahaha.]
In the same scene, the manga panel cut to Ji Chuanze's side profile.
The "Mr. Jiang" on the other end must have said something, as he took out the phone that belonged to Bai Xuechao and said with downcast eyes, "I found his phone."
In the next panel, he replied, "Yes."
Bai Xuechao, who was reading the manga, guessed that Jiang Yunyi must have asked something like, "Did he leave anything behind?" For Ji Chuanze to answer that he had found the phone, and then Jiang Yunyi must have ordered Ji Chuanze to immediately return with the phone.
As Bai Xuechao turned the page, he thought that when Jiang Yunyi saw the phone Ji Chuanze brought back, he would understand that he hadn't been taken away unprepared.
First of all, there were no signs of damage on the phone from a fight. It wasn't dropped, and it was conveniently left behind, which was enough to show that he had intentionally left it. Coupled with their later video call in the Apocalypse Society, Jiang Yunyi could immediately confirm that he had a purpose and deliberately let Yuan Lan take him away.
Turning to the next page, the scene shifted to the protagonist group.
First, a helicopter landed on the "ruins" of Dream Game City. The three members of the protagonist group were only shown from the back in this panel, their hair messy from the wind kicked up by the rotor blades.
Then the helicopter cabin door opened, revealing a black-haired man squatting with his legs spread apart at the entrance. He wore black sunglasses, with both arms propped on his separated knees, his posture wild and unrestrained.
"Hi~" The man raised a hand and waved, saying with a smile, "I thought I was slow enough, but I didn't expect those two to be even slower than me. It's a good thing you're all okay."
[Ahhh, although I can't see his face clearly yet, I can feel that he's a handsome guy! (Starry eyes)]
[Hehe, I'm different, I'll just call him husband! Husband! (Propping chin on hands)]
[This level of coolness is also maxed out hahaha, I just want to ask, won't he fall off the helicopter like that? (Laughing to tears)]
[What's to fear about falling off for a Level-8 special ability user? He'd probably be fine even if he was hit by the helicopter(.)]
[Help, he even knows he was slow! What's with this "I'm already bad but there are people worse than me" attitude hahaha! Is it okay as long as someone is at the bottom!?]
[Sob sob sob, these sunglasses remind me of an old friend from the neighboring manga. (Tears)]
The man jumped directly from the helicopter and landed steadily on the ground.
He smiled, revealing his white teeth, "Didn't you say you were in Dream Game City? Where is Dream Game City?"
Next were close-ups of the expressions of the protagonist trio, each in their own panel, placed side by side.
The first panel was a rarely silent Zhou Chenhao, the second was Xia Xiaoxi who looked like she wanted to say something but held back, and the last panel was a speechless Ling Feng, pointing a hand diagonally downward.
The man followed the direction Ling Feng was pointing and looked down at his feet, with a look of surprise, "Oh, so this is it? It disappeared so cleanly. Did you hire Japanese-style movers?"
[Hahahaha, why do I feel like this new character is a bit of a comedian?]
[Ling Feng: The thing you're stepping on is it.]
[Japanese-style moving hahahaha, who gets my sense of humor! They move so cleanly, they might as well scrape off the walls and take them too haha! (Laughing like crazy)]
In the next panel, the man said with a grin, "Just kidding, of course I know this is the place."
Ling Feng seemed to know this man and was very familiar with him. It was clear that he spoke with less restraint, his attitude becoming casual as he asked with a scowl, "What are you planning to do?"
"Hah, what can I do." The man walked toward them, the lips under his sunglasses curling into a shallow arc, "The other two little friends don't know who I am yet, do they? My name is Meng Woyi, and I'm affiliated with the B City SAIDB."
[B City! He used to belong to the same SAIDB as Maomao Ling Feng.]
[Looking at Maomao's expression and attitude, he knows this Meng Woyi, right? They seem very familiar.]
[How long has Ling Feng been in the SAIDB? How could he know a Level-8 special ability user?]
[Maybe they're relatives, or friends they've known for a long time.]
[The other two little friends, what a cute way to address them.]
Meng Woyi walked up to the trio.
He raised his hand and hooked the bridge of his sunglasses with the knuckle of his index finger, pulling them down.
The manga inserted a close-up of Ling Feng's widened eyes and slightly tense expression here, as if he knew what was about to happen.
Next was a close-up of Meng Woyi's face.
After Meng Woyi's sunglasses were pulled down a bit, the astonishing eyes behind the lenses were revealed.
His left eye was a common black, which could be said to be ordinary in this manga world, but his right eye was a black and white concentric circle pattern. The center of the eye was a jet-black pupil, the outer circle of the iris was white, and the circle beyond that was black. The two colors, white and black, each evenly occupied half of the iris.
[Wow! What cool eyes! (Cupping face)]
[It has a non-human feel, I really like this type! It would be even better if the sclera could also change color. (Obediently)]
[So he wears sunglasses just because he doesn't want to scare ordinary passersby. (Laughing to tears)]
[The changes after a special ability user awakens are becoming more and more unpredictable. Why did only one eye change, haha? At least be symmetrical! (Laughing to tears)]
[The person in front is truly a Xia Country person who pursues symmetry their whole life hahaha, fitting the stereotype the outside world has of us.]
[Damn it, you guys don't understand the value of heterochromia, this is a very fashionable setting!]
[Has anyone noticed that Meng Woyi is also quite handsome! He's my type... (Starry eyes) If no one's fighting me for him, I'm taking him!]
[I'll fight for him! This man who looks a bit carefree, I'm determined to have him! (Domineering president face)]
In the manga, Meng Woyi looked at the protagonist group with these eyes and said, "I'll take you back to headquarters, go to sleep obediently."
The next panel was a horizontal one, with all three members of the protagonist group looking at the camera, which was Meng Woyi's direction.
Zhou Chenhao and Xia Xiaoxi's expressions were a bit dazed, perhaps surprised by the phrase "go to sleep obediently." Ling Feng, on the other hand, was much calmer, as if he had known this would happen all along.
In the very next panel, the three of them fell to the ground without any warning, all with their eyes closed, as if they had entered dreamland in a second.
Meng Woyi pushed his sunglasses back up his nose and patted his dust-free hands, "Done."
[What kind of special ability is this! Mommy, I want to learn! (Roaring)]
[This insomniac really needs it! At the very least, it would be fine if someone used it on me!]
[That's not the point, sisters! The trio could have cooperated and gone back to headquarters, why knock them out!]
[Someone in front has discovered the blind spot!]
Turning the page, the plot did not continue from there, but rather a blank panel indicating a spatial transition.
After that, there were surprisingly two close-ups of an electrocardiogram monitor. The first panel showed a heart rate of 20, and the blood oxygen was terrifyingly low, only 17%. In the second panel, the heart rate dropped directly to 0!
In the very next panel was a woman with wavy, curly hair, sweat beading on her forehead, wearing a red V-neck French dress, looking very beautiful. The perspective of this panel was from below, showing her looking down at the camera, her hands pressed down.
She gritted her teeth and said, "Yuan Lan... where did you pick up this glass toy? It's a question whether he can even live until tomorrow!"
The scene changed, and Bai Xuechao appeared, lying on a hospital bed with his eyes closed.
There were bloodstains on his lips and by the side of his chin. His lips were dyed a vivid red by the blood, which, combined with his pale, bloodless, and exquisite face, made him look like a vampire sleeping soundly after a full meal of blood. In reality, however, his blood-soaked suit jacket had been unbuttoned, and Mu Xinyue's hands were on his chest, constantly pressing down, trying to perform CPR and get his heart beating again.
But on the close-up of the electrocardiogram monitor in the next panel, it could be seen that Bai Xuechao's heart had started beating again, but it was only at 12.
[Holy crap! My Axue! (Terrified screaming face)]
[Ahhh my wifey! How did he get like this after just a few minutes! How could it be so serious! (Incoherent)]
[Damn, his blood oxygen is already 15%, heart rate 12. According to the time period of this manga, the chances of saving him are very low! It would take a lot of people to revive him!]
[Who is this woman? Is she from the Apocalypse Society?]
[Is the person in front short-circuiting? The only one who can save Bai Xuechao in the Apocalypse Society is the doctor Yuan Lan mentioned before.]
[She's very pretty, no wonder Yuan Lan said not to fall in love with her.]
[Alright, alright, let's see just how awesome this special ability is, to bring Axue back. (Hamster crying with a handkerchief)]
[Adrenaline: This is a high-stakes game. (Wiping sweat)]
[Let me tell a dark joke: Welcome everyone to watch Axue's ICU Resurrection Match.]
[Hahaha the person in front is going to kill me with laughter! ICU Resurrection Match hahaha I'm laughing so hard my mom kicked down the door to ask if I'm sick, and people for ten li around called the police saying I'm disturbing the peace.]
After Bai Xuechao's heart started beating again, Mu Xinyue wanted to turn around to get something, but as soon as she let go, his heart rate dropped rapidly.
Seeing the heart rate drop to only 5 in the first panel of the manga, and then plummeting to 0 in the second, Mu Xinyue could only quickly resume the compressions, unable to leave for even a second.
Here was a close-up of Mu Xinyue's expression, a drop of sweat sliding down her temple, her expression full of seriousness, and next to her was her monologue box: No, this is just drinking poison to quench thirst. I have to go get the "potion" back, but this glass person can't be left alone for even a second!
[The second time calling Xuexue glass hahaha, it's both heartbreaking and funny. (Covering face, laughing to tears)]
[My extremely beautiful wifey, he's perfect in every way, just too fragile.]
[This curly-haired beauty is actually quite a good person. It's just that Axue's CPR can't be stopped for even a second right now, otherwise she would have gotten the medicine.]
[His heart rate is 0 again, sob sob sob, I'm scared just looking at it, my Xuexue, good luck in the competition! (just kidding)]
[What competition? (Scratching head)]
[The ICU Resurrection Match ahahahaha! I feel like this joke can be used until the manga ends. (Laughing and then crying)]
Bai Xuechao was not surprised that Mu Xinyue had once tried so hard to save him.
Mu Xinyue's merit was that she had the heart of a doctor. It was just that her willingness to treat and save him did not conflict with her desire to kill him.
At most, he just felt a bit emotional; people really do have two sides.
In the manga, the door to the medical room was opened.
Yuan Lan, with his hair half-dry and wearing a set of silk pajamas, appeared outside the door. Seeing the urgent scene inside the room, he stood there stunned for a moment, not knowing what to think.
"Need help, Mu Xinyue?" he asked.
Mu Xinyue quickly said, "Bring all the potions over! Then let's switch, I'm getting a little tired of pressing."
Yuan Lan took out all of Mu Xinyue's potions and came to her side to quickly switch places with her.
Now it was Yuan Lan performing CPR on Bai Xuechao.
Mu Xinyue, on the other hand, was injecting Bai Xuechao with the potion.
The manga used a few panels and small text explanations to show that Mu Xinyue injected a potion every twenty minutes or so, and this continued for a full two hours.
"Ah ya," Yuan Lan said with a calm expression on his face, "I forgot to mention, I broke his ribs."
Mu Xinyue let out a turbid breath, "It's fine, it's a common complication of CPR. It's good enough that he's alive, who cares about ribs."
That was what she said, but she still injected the last two potions in her hand into Bai Xuechao's chest.
The manga gave a close-up of the electrocardiogram monitor here.
Bai Xuechao's heart rate was 62, and his blood oxygen was 95%, which was already within the normal range.
[Wait, is this potion that amazing? You just inject it wherever there's a problem?? (Dumbfounded)]
[Although Yuan Lan also participated in Axue's ICU Resurrection Match, he didn't show any pain, guilt, or apology for breaking his ribs! (Covering face, laughing to tears) Is this guy not even going to pretend?]
[What is wifey to him now... wait, why does that sound strange?? (Face full of question marks)]
[Hahaha, person in front, I'll answer. You're acting like a member of the bride's family seeking justice for their child, your sense of immersion is super strong.]
[This young lady named Mu Xinyue is someone you can get along with. If you're sick, she can really treat you.]
[So many potions were used up, I'll thank you on behalf of my wifey. (Shy)]
[Me too! On behalf of my beloved wife, thank you~ (Shy)]
Mu Xinyue opened the door of the medical room while tapping her shoulder.
In the next panel, Yuan Lan stood by the hospital bed and looked outside the door, with a gentle smile on his face, "Little Yu, you've been waiting outside for a long time, why don't you come in?"
"Ah!" Mu Xinyue was startled, only then realizing someone was standing outside the door.
The manga gave a full-body shot of Yu Ruolan here.
Standing outside the door was a slender girl. Her long, black-purple hair hung down her back. She had a delicate and quiet appearance and was wearing a silk slip dress. She had a pair of beautiful and moist purple eyes that reminded one of a fragrant sea of violets.
It was just that she seemed a bit timid. Even when standing outside the door, she wasn't in the middle but by the side of the door, with only half of her body showing.
Yu Ruolan must have seen that Mu Xinyue was startled, and said timidly, "I'm sorry..."
Mu Xinyue glanced at Yu Ruolan, her expression a little cold, clearly not wanting to pay her any attention. She directly ignored her and turned back to Yuan Lan, saying, "I'll go call a servant to change his clothes."
Yuan Lan didn't say whether it was a good idea or not. After Mu Xinyue finished speaking, she went out.
The manga skipped this waiting period. In the next panel, the servants Mu Xinyue had called had all arrived, and they had even brought two sets of silk pajamas in different colors.
Yuan Lan sat by the hospital bed and said with a smile, "Just give me the clothes."
Mu Xinyue frowned slightly, "What do you mean?"
Yuan Lan was still smiling, "I'll change him."
