Chapter 1178 – Goodbye Dr. Li
Daxia.
Lenten Institute.
An airplane circled over the sea and slowly landed on the Lenten Institute’s dedicated tarmac.
Lin Qiye brought Wuquan with him and leapt down from the military airplane, followed by Baili Chubby and the others.
”Back again ……,” An Qingyu looked at the familiar scenes around her and seemed to have thought of something, the corner of her mouth hooked into a smile.
”Yeah.” Lin Qiye nodded, “The last time I was here, I was still being held as a patient and prisoner, and after such a long time, this place hasn’t changed at all.”
”You guys were still prisoners here?” Jiang Er asked curiously.
”Didn’t expect it, did you?” An Qingyu laughed, “I, Seven Nights, and Cao Yuan, successively stayed in the fasting facility, and then we escaped from the prison together before the [Night Shade] squad took shape.”
”I see.” Jiang Er nodded his head and said half-jokingly, “Then the feng shui here must be very good, otherwise it wouldn’t be able to walk out with so many demons.”
Just as the crowd was chatting, a figure clad in a white coat came from the distance with a few guards.
”Dr. Li?”
Seeing that familiar figure, Lin Qiye spoke in surprise, “Why are you here?”
As Lin Qiye’s attending doctor back then and the director of the Sunshine Mental Hospital, Lin Qiye couldn’t be more familiar with him, and the hand-copied notes within the hospital in his mind were from this person.
Dr. Li smiled helplessly:
”The war was tight up front, after Fu Zi went to sit on the war pass, the prison area of this fasting institute was left without a leader, and then Commander Zuo and the others decided to have me, the head of the sickbay, wear two hats and take over from the original Chen Fu Zi’s job.
Now, whether it’s the outer prison or the inner hospital, I’m the one who takes care of it all.
Just now, Commander Zuo greeted me, saying that you’re bringing over an important prisoner, so I immediately rushed over from the sickbay side.”
Dr. Li’s gaze fell on Wu Quan, pushed the black-framed glasses on the bridge of his nose, and spoke curiously:
”This is the [Dominating Emperor]?”
”Uh-huh.”
”The Fourth King’s Market ah …… is really rare.” Dr. Li swept his eyes at Li Xiaoyan and Qian Cheng, “What about these two? Is it his general and prime minister?”
”General and Prime Minister? No, they are just corpses at his disposal.”
Dr. Li raised an eyebrow.
”Oh. ……”
Just as Dr. Lee was sizing up Wuquan, Wuquan was likewise sizing him up.
This svelte doctor with black-framed glasses looked weak and not that different from an ordinary person, but Wu Quan always felt a bit uncomfortable being gazed at by those eyes.
Lin Qiye turned his head to Wu Quan and admonished:
”In the future, this is your new residence, this Dr. Li is your janitor, listen to his arrangements for everything, understand?”
Wu Quan was silent for a moment and calmly asked, “Then what can I leave? Or is it that I can only be locked up here forever?”
Lin Qiye froze.
”Not necessarily, it depends on your performance.” Dr. Li answered for Lin Qiye.
Wu Quan lowered his head and didn’t say anything.
”The person has been delivered, so we’ll leave first.” Lin Qiye looked at the few guards behind Dr. Li and hesitated for a moment, “Or …… we’ll help you send him back to the prison before we leave?”
”No need, you guys go about your business, here, he can’t turn over the sky.” Dr. Li smiled and waved, “Goodbye.”
After Lin Qiye and the others said their goodbyes, they reboarded the airplane and flew straight towards Shangjing City.
Seeing Lin Qiye and the others leave, Dr. Li patted Wu Quan’s shoulder and said gently:
”Come with me, I’ll show you around this place.”
Wu Quan nodded in silence and followed behind Dr. Li.
”This is the prison area, that is, the place where you usually stay, although it’s a bit simple, but the basic facilities are all still intact, this place may be a bit boring for other inmates, but it won’t be …… for you.
You’re still underage and still in school, I’ll send a few teachers specifically to give you individual lessons, so this will be your one-on-one classroom from now on as well.”
”This is the cafeteria, you will be let out to eat and move around every day at the right time, so you better move fast or your food will get cold ……”
”This is the activity area, it’s shared with the Sunshine Psychiatric Hospital ……”
Dr. Li led Wu Quan, strolling around the fasting house, and finally came to the corner of the activity area.
There, a pimply-faced man in blue and white stripes was squatting on the ground, muttering something to himself.
When he saw Dr. Li approaching, he raised his head and looked at Wu Quan beside him with some confusion.
”This is Old Dog Wu, my patient.” Dr. Li pushed up his glasses, “This is Wu Quan, the new prisoner.”
Wu Old Dog stared intently into Wu Quan’s dark eyes, his brows furrowed slightly as he slowly stood up from the ground, his cloudy eyes emerging with a rare clarity.
He opened his mouth and spoke in a single word:
”[Dominating Emperor]?”
”That’s right.” Dr. Li nodded.
Wu Quan frowned as he gazed at Old Dog Wu, seemingly somewhat puzzled.
Wu Old Dog was silent for a moment and took the initiative to extend his hand, calmly saying:
”Hello, just call me Old Dog.”
Wu Quan looked at the dirty hand, his frown tightened, but in the end, he still reached out and shook it:
”…… Hello.”
Shangjing City.
North side of the border.
A pixelated McLaren slowly pulled up to the edge of the Misty Wall.
”Are you sure you want to leave now?” Memorial sat in the driver’s seat and turned his head to look at his side, “Your injuries aren’t completely healed yet.”
Leng Xuan said calmly, “There’s no time to wait slowly, I’ve been dragging my feet in Daxia for too long, if I drag it on any longer, to plan is going to fail.”
Seeing this, Remembrance also stopped persuading and instead pulled out a dan pot from his pocket, handing it over to Leng Xuan:
”Since you’re leaving, bring it to Xiao Nan on the way.”
”This is?”
”By the way, you just came out from the fasting house, you still don’t know about Xiao Nan’s change of plans ……” Memorial rehashed what Si Xiao Nan had told her.
After hesitating for a moment, Leng Xuan shook his head and said:
”Bringing it to her on the way, I’m afraid it won’t work, this time I’ll enter the mists and won’t rendezvous with her again.”
”Why?”
”This time, the action on the Pamir Plateau forced out Loki’s backhand hidden in my body, and now that I have completely escaped from his surveillance, turning from light to dark, this is very favorable to our plan.
If I return directly to Asgard and Minami, not only will Loki become suspicious, but I will also be planted under his surveillance once again.
I need to take advantage of my current freedom to make more preparations.”
Remembrance nodded thoughtfully, “Understood, then I’ll send someone else to deliver it, take care of yourself.”
Leng Xuan opened the door and got out of the car, walking straight towards the tumbling mists, the silver ring on his right hand emitted a faint shimmering light, sheltering his body and disappearing into the mists.
Remembrance sat in the car and let out a long sigh.
Ding bell-!
The crisp ringing of the phone rang.
”Hello?”
”……”
”Lin Qiye and the others are going back to Shangjing? I know, I’m done with my side too, so I’ll go over right away.”
