Chapter 34: Power and Convenience
Wang Yu was called out of the ward by his landlady and had just walked out the door when he heard a pleasant system voice.
Congratulations! You saved your good friend Luo Xuan and got 10 love points!
Congratulations! You have punished the great villain Deng Kang. Due to his numerous evil deeds and heinous crimes, you have earned 60 points of loving kindness!
Congratulations! You have penalized six grassroots members of the Ha Dog Gang and obtained 6 points of love value!
Wang Yuxin was overjoyed, but also full of doubts. Why did he only receive the system's voice prompt now? Why did punishing Deng Kang earn him 60 love points, while punishing the other six hoodlums only earned him six points?
The landlady saw Wang Yu's distracted look and scolded, "Wang Yu, I've warned you countless times, don't have any ideas about my daughter. Xiao Yan will be taking the entrance exams for Tsinghua and Peking University in the future, and you, a small animal doctor, are not worthy of her. I don't know what kind of relationship you have with the doctors here, they praise you and call you a young medical god, but I know your true nature. Once you pay off the rent, get out of my house immediately."
Wang Yu was scolded by the landlady, and a fire of anger rose in his heart, but he endured it for Zhou Yan's sake, besides, he still owed her several months' rent.
"Yes, yes, you're right. I'm just a small animal doctor, not worthy of your precious daughter. But I haven't done anything to her, have I? I just treat her like a little sister, and we only meet three or four times a month. Don't worry, sir, I don't have any bad intentions towards her."
Having obtained Wang Yu's guarantee, Bao Zhen Er's expression looked a bit better, but she still didn't let Wang Yu off the hook. She kept scolding him, telling him to be more mindful of keeping his distance from Zhou Yan in the future and not to behave like today, when they had fed each other like a couple.
Wang Yu Zheng was getting impatient, when suddenly several police officers came out of the ward in front of them. One young policeman with acne all over his face pointed at them and shouted: "Onlookers return to your own wards! The entire hospital is under martial law! What are you looking at? I'm talking to you..."
Young police officer was shouting with excitement, when suddenly he got slapped on the head. A veteran police officer next to him glared at him and then smiled and ran towards Wang Yu: "Wang Yu, it's you! We just finished a meeting and came out, Xiao Xu is already safe. But something happened on Deng Kang's side, so the entire hospital is under lockdown for investigation."
Wang Yu remembered this thirty-year-old policeman who was following Director Song at the time, a sharp-eyed guy. What his name was had slipped his mind, although he had introduced himself when they arrived at the hospital.
Noticing Wang Yu's confusion, the thirty-something police officer immediately smiled and said: "I'm Deputy Captain Ma Haitao of the Criminal Police Brigade. Just call me Little Ma."
Wang Yu rolled his eyes, you're still young and naive, yet you've already become as cunning as an old horse. You're just a friend of the yamen's, do you need to fawn over them like this? For the first time, Wang Yu felt the power of authority, even when he was at the height of his powers, he was still afraid of dealing with the police.
"It turned out to be Little Ma Ge." Not hitting a smiling face, seeing him deliberately fawning, Wang Yu shook hands with him and asked, "What's going on with Deng Kang?"
The captain of the horse team cautiously swept a glance at the stunned landlady, and said in a low voice: "He committed suicide! But we suspect it was murder, and are secretly investigating."
Wang Yu's brow furrowed as soon as he heard it, this question was a bit troublesome, the person behind Deng Kang would have to remember him. Another problem was that he finally knew why the reward of the feeding system had just arrived, when Deng Kang died, the reward value was maximized.
"Alright, I know. You guys go ahead and take care of it." Wang Yu didn't mean to pry any further and didn't want to draw attention to himself.
Ma Haitao bid farewell to the group of detectives with courtesy, while the police officer with acne on his face regretted and didn't dare to lift his head. When Captain Ma was talking to Wang Yu, a policeman secretly explained Wang Yu's identity to him, whether it was a friend from the yamen or a ruthless character under Jiu Ye, neither of which he could afford to offend.
Mrs. Bao poked Wang Yu's arm in surprise and asked in a low voice, "How do you know Captain Ma of the criminal police team? He used to come to our office for official business with a stiff face like an ice block, but today he became as gentle as a grandson when he saw you?"
Wang Yu lazily didn't bother to explain, and instead bluffed: "Their police dog, Ah Huang from the criminal police team, was dying. Luckily, I happened to be there and used my incredible skills to revive him, snatching his beloved dog back from the jaws of death. Not just him, but the entire criminal police team is grateful to me."
After finishing, Wang Yu ignored the landlady's questioning and returned to the ward with a pleased expression, devouring the remaining food. Under Zhou Yan's resentful gaze, Wang Yu found an excuse and bid farewell to leave.
Luoxing woke up and couldn't help but go take a look. At the door, four police officers were guarding it, and after knocking on the door, two more police officers came out. Fortunately, they all knew Wang Yu, so they let him in. Inside the ward, two pretty nurses were busy, Luoxing was lying on the bed, teasing the little nurse with a sentence or two, his spirit hadn't recovered yet.
"Brother, still have the spirit to flirt with the little nurse, not bad, won't die for the time being." Wang Yu said jokingly as soon as he entered the door.
Luoxun saw Wang Yu and immediately opened his arms, grinning from ear to ear: "Brother Yu, let me give you a hug! I thought I'd never see you again in this lifetime!"
"For crying out loud, stop being disgusting!" Wang Yu felt a chill run down his spine. If he hadn't known that Luo Xu's sexual orientation was normal, he would have turned around and fled.
"I'm perfectly normal, seeing a good brother and expressing some strong inner feelings, what's wrong with that?" Luo Xuan said with a look of grievance.
"Is this little injury worth the big beard you've been growing? More importantly, don't scare these two nurse sisters to death."
Luoxun took a look and indeed found two little nurses staring at them with strange expressions, the conversation just now sounded like homosexuals flirting.
"Cough, cough... Can't you be a bit more normal, brother? Get me some fruit to eat and I'll talk about something serious. This hospital is ridiculous, I'm sick and no one has sent flowers or fruit." Luo Xuan complained.
"When your family comes over, the flowers and fruits in your room will be piled up." Wang Yu said straightforwardly.
At the mention of this, Luo Xun's face turned awkward and he glanced at Wang Yu uncomfortably: "In the past when I was in school, I didn't intentionally conceal my identity..."
"It's my fault for not asking you." Wang Yu said with a deep understanding of human nature.
"Born by my parents, known by my brother... no mistake, it's like that."
"You're really something! I'll give you some color, you've really gone too far this time. Next time I'll settle the score with you." Wang Yu grabbed Luo Xuan's big beard, looking like he was about to get angry.
"Brother Fei, I didn't grow this beard easily, don't mess with it, if you pluck it out what will I use to pick up chicks? Among all the things on my body, this beard is the most handsome and has the most masculine charm..."
Luoxun knew Wang Yu's temper, as long as he was still scolding and hitting people, it meant that he wasn't really angry. In the past, they were just university classmates, but this time Wang Yu came alone to save him, which made Luoxun grateful for his whole life.
"Deng Kang is dead, can we still get our money back?" After a commotion, the two of them got down to business.
"I started the business in secret, without telling my parents, so everything was very difficult. This time something happened, not only did my parents find out, but all our relatives and friends found out too, they won't let me suffer a loss. Alas, without my father's support, I really can't accomplish anything." Luo Xuan said with some disappointment later on.
The idea of being a civil servant is beyond Wang Yu's comprehension. Having a well-known brand and not using it, instead wanting to start his own business. After suffering losses, perhaps there will be some changes.
Before long, Luo Xun's mother arrived. His father, Deputy Governor Luo, did not come and only sent his secretary to accompany her. Even so, it caused a stir among the city's leaders, and people came to visit one after another, just like they had been waiting at the hospital entrance beforehand. Within half an hour, they arrived one after another, leaving behind piles of fruit and nutritional supplements, and left with joy on their faces.
Although I didn't see Vice Governor Luo, I saw the secretary of the governor, and the gain was not small. However, these officials were a bit puzzled because they saw the governor's wife holding hands with a handsome young man all the way, more intimate than her son on the hospital bed. After leaving the ward, these officials made phone calls one after another to investigate Wang Yu's identity.
"Hello, is this Little Zhang from the Municipal Bureau? This is Old Lu from the Municipal Government... I'm calling to ask you something..."
"Is that Detective Squad's Xiao Ma? I'm from the Municipal Committee... I'd like to ask you something... Oh? So it was him who saved the Provincial Governor's son?"
Wang Yu still didn't know that he had been remembered by some officials, and was being pulled by the governor's wife, unable to extricate himself. He wanted to bid farewell and leave, but the governor's wife said, "A lifesaver is like a reborn parent, if you don't thank them properly, it's not right in your heart."
Actually, everyone is not stupid. Just based on her actions of pulling Wang Yu tightly just now, she was repaying Wang Yu's kindness. If some officials are willing to help, they will provide convenience for Wang Yu's future affairs. Of course, if Wang Yu has something to do and it can be solved through official channels, Luo Xuan will definitely be happy to help.
"Auntie, it's late at night, you chat with Luo Xuan for a bit, I'll head back to rest, I still have work tomorrow." Seeing that only the provincial governor's wife and secretary were left in the room, Wang Yu finally let out a sigh of relief and bid them farewell.
"Alright, Auntie won't keep you, when we have time later, be sure to come to our house to play. The fish-flavored shredded pork and braised pork that Auntie makes are the best, Xiaoxuan can testify for me." said the governor's wife with a warm smile.
Luo Xun hastily nodded: "That's right, my mom's craftsmanship is not easily revealed, Yu Ge, you're in luck."
Wang Yu repeatedly expressed his gratitude. Regardless of whether it was true or not, the warmth and kindness shown by Luo Xuan's mother made him feel warm inside, even reminding him of Lin Auntie who had taken care of him since he was young.
The city center is very lively, even in the middle of the night, there are still people coming and going on the streets.
Wang Yushun walked along the pedestrian path for a while, as there were no more buses and he wanted to save money, so he could only look for a motorbike taxi. Motorbike taxis are prohibited by the traffic police department, and looking for one also requires luck.
Just then, a commotion came from the pedestrian street to the right front, with many onlookers. Wang Yu didn't want to intervene in other people's business, but suddenly heard that the quarrel sounded somewhat familiar, so he squeezed into the crowd.
Xie Xiao Xiao wore a loose Taoist robe, her thin body looking even more frail, she stubbornly guarded her fortune-telling sign.
A young man and woman were fighting, kicking over her fortune-telling bowl and scattering coins everywhere. The heavily made-up woman had already slapped Xiaoxiao several times, knocking off her glasses and shattering the lenses.
"I didn't make a mistake, I won't apologize. You're unreasonable, hitting people randomly, and you'll get what's coming to you." Xie Xiaoxiao protected the fortune-telling signboard, but was hit several times, and that man cursed loudly before kicking her to the ground.
