My God Raising Game

Chapter 52 Cash Reward, A Small Fortune

The 17th Military Hospital, 7th floor isolation area, infectious disease ward 702.

"A superhuman?" Lu Jiuling looked thoughtful. "So there really are people who can use supernatural powers!"

If he pretended not to have heard of the term, Lu Jiuling wasn't sure if his micro-expressions could fool the other person, so his choice was, 'I've heard of it, but I only have a vague understanding of it.'

This is exactly what Lu Jiuling is like now, since he really doesn't know much about various extraordinary professions.

Zhou Yongping nodded slightly; he saw no sign that the boy was lying.

"Lu Jiuling, you're so calm!"

Li Tai sneered, as if a great detective had caught the mastermind behind the murder: "You witnessed more than twenty people die in front of you last night, and they died tragically. Can you tell me why you are so calm?"

"Are you some kind of psychopath who's seen countless murder scenes?" Li Tai roared as he finished speaking, "Answer me!"

"You're asking me? Who am I supposed to ask?" Lu Jiuling retorted, his tone hardening. "You didn't capture Tang Weimin, letting him kill so many people. Are you just useless cowards holding positions of power?"

Yell at me?

Do you really think your brother Lu is made of clay and has no temper?

Although it is the duty of these people to investigate a murder case, could they please stop treating him like a suspect and interrogating him?
What's wrong with being nicer?
"Lu, calm down!" Zhou Yongping handed Lu Jiuling a glass of water: "He didn't mean anything by it!"

Lu Jiuling crossed his arms and didn't take the paper cup.

"Lu, is there anything about Tang Weimin that you're particularly interested in?"

Zhou Yongping gestured to Li Tai that he had finished playing the bad cop and should stop talking.

"He mentioned a professor!"

Having killed Tang Weimin, Lu Jiuling figured the professor would likely come looking for him, so he wanted to expose him and get the investigation bureau to arrest him.

"professor?"

Zhou Yongping's eyes lit up; this must be Tang Weimin's mentor.

After asking a few more questions, the two investigators got up and took their leave.

"Lu, please get some rest. You'll need to undergo a few more tests to make sure everything is alright. You should be able to be discharged in three days at most!"

Zhou Yongping reassured him: "Don't worry, it's public medical care, you don't need to spend any money."

"Of all my classmates who were forced to drink by Xitong, who survived?"

Lu Jiuling wanted to know.

"Go see for yourself!" Zhou Yongping stood up. "Please keep everything that happened last night a secret, not even to your family."

Information about the sequence of deities is kept secret from ordinary people.

"Watch your mouth, or you'll face criminal charges and spend the rest of your life in jail!"

Li Tai wasn't just trying to scare Lu Jiuling; the court really would rule that way.

"By the way, you did a fantastic job last night, saving more than a dozen classmates. The bureau will be giving you a cash reward." Zhou Yongping added, "At least 100,000 yuan!"

"Thank you!"

Lu Jiuling was surprised to receive money and politely declined.

When Zhou Yongping saw that Lu Jiuling remained calm upon hearing that he could receive such a large sum of money, he couldn't help but secretly admire him. He truly had the composure to remain unperturbed by honor or disgrace, displaying the demeanor of a great general!
"Bye-bye, no need to see me off!"

Zhou Yongping waved his hand and closed the door.

……

After leaving the isolation area, Zhou Yongping lit a cigarette under a pine tree in the hospital compound.

"What do you think?"

Zhou Yongping took a deep drag on his cigarette.
"That kid is definitely hiding something!" Li Tai sneered. "He's a poor student, yet he's wearing a watch worth millions on his wrist. I want to know where he got that from?"

Lu Jiuling never expected that the spoils he picked up in the previous God Game at the Headless Zen Temple would become a loophole.

“I asked him, and he was already wearing that watch before he came to the ancient town!”

Zhou Yongping looked up at the window of Lu Jiuling's ward: "Such terrifying forbidden pollution, it sends chills down my spine just hearing about it, and he actually purified it. He's a genius!"

"I can fuck you too!"

Li Tai curled his lip, his tone disdainful.

"Hehe!" Zhou Yongping chuckled. "Don't forget, he's just an ordinary person, while you are a Sequence 9 extraordinary being!"

Li Tai's expression froze, because he knew that if he were an ordinary person, he would never have made it to the end after being exposed to those corrupting rules.

“I suspect that Lu Jiuling has probably completed the advancement ceremony and become a superhuman,” Zhou Yongping guessed. “I just don’t know what his profession is?”

"What?" Li Tai exclaimed in shock, "No way?"

"They've already drunk the nuptial wine, which means the wedding is complete." Zhou Yongping pondered, "I'll go back to headquarters in the next couple of days to check the library to see what kind of extraordinary profession one gets promoted to after this kind of ceremony?"

"Keep an eye on him. If he's a superhuman, he'll definitely leave some clues!"

"Captain Zhou, don't worry, I'll definitely catch him red-handed!"

Li Tai was eager to try.

"Be polite to Lu!"

Zhou Yongping gave a word of advice: if the other party becomes a superhuman, he actually wants to invite them to join the Investigation Bureau.

This kind of genius is absolutely worth nurturing.

He knew Li Tai was arrogant and proud, and if he said that, Li Tai might cause trouble for that boy and challenge him to a duel. "Captain Zhou, the other students said that Tang Weimin had a golden bell that could create puppets of the living dead, and a golden hairpin that was obviously a forbidden item, but we didn't find it in the mansion. Why didn't you ask Lu Jiuling about it earlier?"

Li Tai didn't understand.

The prohibited item is extremely dangerous and must be contained immediately.

"Didn't he say that a ghost bride appeared?" Zhou Yongping guessed, "Maybe it took her away!"

"Of course, the most likely explanation is that Lu Jiuling hid them, which is why I had you follow him for a while!"

Zhou Yongping glanced at Li Tai, somewhat speechless.

If that boy hides the golden bell and the golden hairpin, he's planning to keep them for himself. If you ask him, you'll only get a bunch of perfunctory answers. It's better to catch him red-handed.

"I understand!" Li Tai clenched his fist, eager to seize on Lu Jiuling's weakness: "Captain Zhou, do you think that ghost bride will reappear?"

"Probably!"

Zhou Yongping's expression was solemn; he had never heard of such a promotion ceremony before.

"Maybe before I find any clues about that kid, that ghost bride will have him killed!" Li Tai laughed. "He might even think this is a romantic encounter!"

Why were these survivors sent to the infectious disease ward of a military hospital for isolation and treatment? It was because there was concern that they might still be contaminated and could suddenly go insane or do something irrational.

……

Five minutes after Zhou Yongping and Li Tai finished giving their statements and left, the young investigator on duty at the door retrieved Lu Jiuling's belongings and returned them to him.

"These are your belongings, please take inventory!" the young investigator instructed. "Starting tomorrow morning at 8 a.m., you can leave your room, but you can only move around on the seventh floor. We will arrange for a caregiver to bring you three meals a day!"

"You can be discharged in three days, and family visits will not be allowed until the day after tomorrow. Until then, you can call or video chat!"

After saying that, the young investigator left and went to work at the nurses' station on the seventh floor.

Lu Jiuling stared at the Patek Philippe watch, feeling numb.

Got it!

At the time, I was only thinking about hiding forbidden items and forgot about this watch.

Given the expertise of the personnel at the Bureau of Countermeasures for Abnormal Situations, they would certainly know that this is a genuine watch. So the question is, how did a poor student manage to get his hands on this?

Lu Jiuling pinched the bridge of his nose.

I can't exactly tell people that I'm the alternate chairman of the Sagittarius Palace in the Divine Council, a position I obtained in the Divine Game.

This news is even more explosive than killing Tang Weimin with my own hands.

never mind,

forget about it!
I don't know if I'll be able to survive the Gods' Game next month. If I am, I'll figure something out then!
Lu Jiuling picked up her phone and opened WeChat.

Because the memory is too small, the phone is very laggy and extremely slow.

"Once I get the bonus, I'll spend seven or eight thousand on a flagship phone." Lu Jiuling complained, "I've really had enough of this crappy phone!"

As a student, and a nobody in the class, Lu Jiuling's interpersonal relationships were very simple. In addition to her junior high and high school classmates' groups, she also had five game boosting groups to earn living expenses.

Now that he is a superhuman who has entered the ranks of gods and has transcended social classes, he no longer needs to work as a game booster for a monthly salary of 30 yuan. However, Lu Jiuling did not leave these group chats.

Ok,
It's definitely not because the group members are all helpful heroes who are always posting lewd pictures, links, or making suggestive jokes all the time.

Having multiple boosting groups can conveniently cover up the number one boosting group; otherwise, leaving only one would seem abrupt and suspicious to a discerning person.

Scroll through the messages.

A follower of the Great Thunder Cult posted several revealing pictures of young girls and casually asked if there was any work available.

The pure love warrior still says, "O God, activate!"

Lu Jiuling couldn't find any news about Shan Yue Shao.

Last time, this group member mentioned that he had entered the game. Lu Jiuling wanted to know if he had actually played the Gods Game. If so, why didn't he appear in the Council of Gods?
Or perhaps he hid and only showed himself after the three chairpersons—the white-clad mature woman, the refined old man, and the other two—left.
The group owner and the farmer have been less active these past few days.

After going through the messages from the last three days, Lu Jiuling opened her high school classmates' group chat.

The last message was posted at 7:12 AM yesterday, by Xu Shaowei, reminding everyone to be careful.

With so many people dead, this group is probably doomed.

It's unknown how many people survived the final forbidden contamination after Tang Lei, Jiang Shan, and the others finished drinking.
Lu Jiuling called Tang Lei, but the call was busy. It seemed that Tang Lei was chatting with his family. Lu Jiuling tossed his phone onto the bed and went to the bathroom to take a shower.

After I finished washing up, the caregiver brought me dinner.

One stir-fried mushroom dish, one stir-fried zucchini with eggs, plus a serving of rice and a cup of millet porridge.

Lu Jiuling took a bite of the zucchini; it was very bland, but that's how hospital meals are—low in oil and salt.

Wearing a headless Buddha mask for more than half an hour can create a mindset that makes one want to meddle in other people's business, while also increasing appetite and making one crave meat.

Lu Jiuling didn't have this feeling, because he had calculated yesterday that the time he would wear that Buddha mask was at most ten minutes.

The main problem is that Tang Weimin was too easy to kill!
It could also be said that the miracle of the sacred mountain being far away and the wild Buddha burning scriptures was too powerful.

Lu Jiuling quickly finished her dinner and then scrolled through videos on her phone to aid digestion.

What a beautiful jasmine flower!

The phone rang!

Lu Jiuling glanced at it; it was an unfamiliar number!
