Jiang Chen stood in a dirty alley and waited for more than an hour before finally seeing a familiar figure—Lin Fan, dressed in a uniform and looking dashing, was attentively helping an injured old woman, whose clothes were worn and who looked a little disheveled, slowly walk over!
Chapter Twenty-One: To be honest, I really want to collect ten thousand copies!
"Host!" Xiao Bai exclaimed in surprise, "Quick, quick, the mission is here!"
[Mission: Pay Lin Fan's medical expenses and treat the injured General Su Lan. Reward: 5 one-time D-grade items; 5 points]
"He can't even afford medical expenses. Lin Fan is really doing terribly!" Xiao Bai couldn't help but complain.
Jiang Chen's original intention was to stop the protagonist from clinging to a powerful figure this time, and he never expected that he would actually be given a mission.
The sixth task was so simple that he immediately beamed with joy. "You wouldn't understand."
Military bases are strictly managed and have ample supplies, so there's no need for interstellar currency.
In addition, there are concerns that these young people might lose control if they have money, or develop a competitive spirit, so the amount of interstellar currency in their chips is limited while they are under the jurisdiction of the military base.
Moreover, since it was their first mission, the military base did not allow the soldiers to eat or use special products from other planets, for fear of harming their telekinesis. Therefore, the chips were usually cleared.
Therefore, Lin Fan is now penniless.
That's why he was able to suddenly reveal his domineering aura as the protagonist, pretending to be weak while actually being strong, causing a ruckus in the hospital, and ultimately leaving me, the unfortunate cannon fodder male supporting character, to clean up his mess.
As the main character, one can enjoy the benefits of being praised by others.
Logically speaking, Lin Fan shouldn't have been able to sneak away from the main group. But he's the protagonist, after all, and has a special aura!
It is against discipline for others to do this;
The protagonist doing this is called being unconventional and unrestrained, ha... such a double standard!
As he spoke, his eyes were fixed on the two people who had approached the hospital, and he was holding a button-like object in his hand.
Xiao Bai glanced at it and asked curiously, "Host, do you want to use a prop?"
"A one-time use B-grade item—'Luring the Tiger Away from the Mountain.'" Jiang Chen smiled slightly. "It can force the opponent to leave this area, and the effect lasts for ten minutes."
"Is it enough?" Xiaobai was a little worried.
Jiang Chen didn't answer; he seized the opportunity and threw the button out!
"boom!"
After a soft sound, Lin Fan, who was helping the injured old woman slowly walk towards the hospital, was slightly taken aback, and then his expression became somewhat troubled.
"Grandma, could you wait here for me for a moment?" He said absentmindedly, "I have some urgent business to attend to, I'll be right back!"
Having said that, as if urged by something, he couldn't wait for the old woman's reply. He helped her sit down on the spot, then turned and ran away with a look of bewilderment on his face.
"Hah..." The old woman sat down on the cold, dirty ground and let out a muffled groan of endurance.
A large amount of blood gushed from her chest, which she was clutching with her left hand, instantly staining her tattered clothes red.
"Grandma, are you hurt?" Jiang Chen strode out of the alley and headed straight for the hospital. When he passed the old woman, he looked surprised. "Oh dear, you've lost so much blood! Let me carry you to the hospital to get bandaged up!"
Was it done by invaders from another galaxy?
He quickly crouched down and gently carried the old woman on his back, jogging all the way into the hospital, muttering, "Those damned guys, they've committed all sorts of atrocities, burning, killing, and looting. One day I'll go to the interstellar battlefield and wipe them all out!"
"Cough cough!" The old woman coughed a few times, her voice hoarse, and said, "Thank you... You met two young people, both kind-hearted lads... The interstellar battlefield is dangerous, aren't you afraid?"
As they were talking, Jiang Chen had already run to the emergency room to call for doctors and nurses to treat the seriously injured old woman.
Although it is a dilapidated level 2 planet, its medical conditions are surprisingly good, probably because of the frequent battles that break out. It has a treatment pod that is rare in other low-level planets!
This is a great thing. As long as you're not dead, no matter how serious the injury, lying in it will quickly heal you.
"Her injuries are very serious, and the treatment pods are very expensive..." the doctor said, frowning after glancing at the wound.
Jiang Chen placed his wrist on the payment counter and said, "Swipe the card and get the person to the treatment ward quickly!"
The staff at the payment counter were equally efficient, immediately swiping 100,000 interstellar coins with a "beep," and then ordering, "Top-tier treatment pod, take him to room 302 on the third floor."
From carrying the injured elderly woman to swiping her card to pay and then entering the treatment ward, the entire process took no more than five minutes.
Jiang Chen waited patiently outside room 302. After about three minutes, the old woman, whose injuries had been completely healed, was wheeled out by a nurse. "The old lady's injuries are healed, but she is weak and needs to rest more. In the near future, make sure she gets enough nutrition and don't let her get any more bumpy or strenuous exercise."
"The mission is complete." Xiaobai looked puzzled. "As long as we pay for the old lady's medical treatment, it doesn't matter whether Lin Fan is present or not?"
How can the task be called 'paying Lin Fan's medical expenses'?
"It should be paid for the old lady..."
Jiang Chen replied in a low voice, "Of course it's because the old lady is indebted to Lin Fan."
Although I helped pay for the old lady's medical expenses and treatment, it was Lin Fan who rescued her and brought her to the hospital entrance. I was just a link in the chain; Lin Fan was the one who initiated the rescue.
Xiao Bai's eyes darted around, indicating that he still didn't understand.
A moment later, the dizziness from emerging from the treatment pod subsided, and the old woman regained consciousness, saying gratefully, "Thank you, young man! What's your name? You're my savior!"
"It was nothing," Jiang Chen smiled sheepishly, scratching his head as he replied earnestly, "My name is Xia Jiang Chen."
I... have lived with my maternal grandmother since I was a child.
Unfortunately, she didn't live to see me take her out of the desolate planet...
Seeing you reminds me of my grandmother.
If only someone could have saved her life back then. Now that I have the ability, I naturally want to do my best to help others, so that there will be people like me who won't lose their loved ones..."
As he spoke, a smile played on his face, but his eyes were slightly red and glistening with tears.
"Tsk tsk, it's such a pity my host isn't a movie star." Little White stood straight, holding its two short paws, watching its host's acting skills and couldn't help but shake its head.
The old woman was deeply moved. "Your grandmother was able to raise such a good child as you. It must have been hard for her to stay in a place like that desolate prison..."
By the way, a young man in military uniform picked me up from the roadside just now; he's a good kid too.
No wonder they are a new generation trained at a military base.
I think Xia, you're not that old, you could consider applying to a military base.
"Train there for a few years, and maybe you really can make it to the interstellar battlefield."
"Actually, I..." Jiang Chen had just started to speak when a surprised exclamation came from the corridor, "Grandma, I've finally found you!"
Lin Fan finally breathed a sigh of relief the moment he saw General Su Lan.
I don't know what happened just now. When I heard my superior calling me on the communicator, I knew that the most important thing was to get General Su Lan to the hospital to win her favor. But my brain and body were behaving very strangely. I was absent-minded and left the injured old woman behind!
The system remained completely silent, offering no warning whatsoever.
I ran until I reached the assembly point of the main group before I suddenly came to my senses.
When they rushed back, they found that General Su Lan was gone, leaving only a pool of blood at the hospital entrance.
The old lady was so badly injured, she definitely couldn't walk into the hospital by herself.
The people on this garbage planet love to take advantage of others' misfortunes, so Lin Fan was extremely anxious and searched everywhere, fearing that General Su Lan had been dragged away by some thugs.
After going around in circles and asking around for ages, I finally found out that someone had carried an old lady into the emergency room.
He then went into the hospital to inquire everywhere and made his way to the third-floor treatment ward.
However, when Lin Fan saw the person who had been leaning down to talk to the old lady slowly stand up and look over, his heart skipped a beat!
Chapter Twenty-Two has so few clicks and so few favorites...
It's that persistent Xia Jiangchen again!
How did he end up here?
Haven't I already begun to replace him and embark on the path to success that Xia Jiangchen took in the previous life?
Why is he causing trouble again!
Lin Fan was in a state of utter confusion. Just when things were about to get back on track, this guy popped up again...
"It's you?" After a second of stunned silence, Jiang Chen stepped forward, grabbed Lin Fan, and punched him with a fist the size of a cooking pot. "You, Lin Fan, it's like finding a needle in a haystack!"
I've been searching for you all over the galaxy.
Give me back my grandmother's life!
You tried to steal my chip but failed, so you poisoned my elderly and frail grandmother!
Don't think I'm afraid of you just because you're wearing a nice leather outfit.
Murderer, robber, fraudster, thief! Does the person who made you wear this uniform know what you've been doing on the desolate planet?
Almost as soon as they met, Jiang Chen grabbed Lin Fan and started punching him mercilessly.
After a year and a half of training at the military base, Lin Fan, who thought he was already very strong and physically capable, now helplessly discovered that he was completely powerless against Xia Jiangchen!
Because of the narrow hospital corridors, he was beaten even worse than he had been in the shrine in Cliff Village...
One of them was yelling as he fought;
One of them was being beaten while wailing and howling like a banshee.
The noise was so loud that hospital security personnel immediately arrived and forcibly separated the two people with weapons.
"Xia Jiangchen...you, you're bullying me too much!" Lin Fan wiped away the gushing blood from his nose, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth, making it difficult for him to speak coherently.
Jiang Chen, forcibly separated by the forked weapon, was so angry that veins bulged on his forehead and neck. He was panting heavily, clenching his fists and staring at him.
It's as if you could kill him with your gaze!
"You two know each other?" General Su Lan looked at Jiang Chen and then at Lin Fan, her slightly pale face exuding an air of authority. "What exactly happened?"
The fact that Lin Fan left the main group without permission during this time has been discovered.
The commander in charge, using the surveillance system on him, discovered that he was in the hospital and in danger of conflict, and hurriedly led a small team to the scene.
They had just separated on this side when a large group of people rushed over from the other side.
"Who beat you up like this?" The commander was furious when he saw Lin Fan's bruised and swollen face. "Well, we are fighting bloody battles on the battlefield to resist the invaders and protect the peace of Polar Night Star, and someone actually dares to stab us in the back and turn around and beat our soldiers!"
Who did this? Step forward!
Seeing that someone had come to his aid, Lin Fan immediately became more assertive.
He knew the rules of the military base well: internally, soldiers could compete and fight among themselves, but outside, all soldiers were a unified whole, facing the enemy together!
