Se Caisaid quietly. Unsurprisingly, a golden flashed burst before him to reveal afolder icon. Se Cai concentrated on the icon and it opened to the details onthe Blue Sky Rehab a.s.signment.
NewsLead: Received tip about Blue Sky Rehab’s illegal custody of its patients andits involvement in causing intentional injury. Expose on the rehab will lead topublic awareness and pressure for shut down.
“It’syou who have crossed me first. I don’t believe I can’t take you down with thehelp of this Eye for News system!”
Se Caiuttered through clenched teeth.
Se Caiwas raised in a single-parent family so he not a factious person, he onlybecame so determined because the Blue Sky Rehab’s people had him cornered. Theynot only a.s.saulted him, they wanted him spiritually and professionally dead!
“SeCai!”
Thecall of his name was followed by a string of rushed footsteps. Se Cai turned tosee Gao Xiang running towards him. He set down the thermos and imploredhurriedly, “Are you okay? I just came back from your attending doctor andhappened across a bunch of unpleasant looking people exiting your room.”
Trailingbehind Gao Xiang was a team of nurses who looked equally nervous.
“I’m…fine. Just feeling a bit faint.”
Se Caibreathed in deeply to calm himself, “Those were the people from Blue Sky Rehab,they came to apologize.”
Se Caipurposely kept his elaboration brief because there were too many unfamiliarfaces in the room, especially the doctor that Se Cai’s eyes eventually fell on.
“Niceto meet you, Mr. Se. I’m doctor Wong, you’ve been transferred to us thismorning so let me first go through your medical report…”
Thedoctor said as he habitually pushed the bridge of his spectacles upwards.
Thanksto the clue provided by his mind-reading skill though, Se Cai was extremelysuspicious of this doctor.
Maybethis was the doctor who had been bribed?
Se Caizeroed in on the doctor and yelled internally, “Activate mind-reading!”
“Sigh,I wonder which powerful figure this poor guy has crossed that the president ofthe hospital personally ordered me to surrept.i.tiously add small dosage ofdimethyl pyridine in his drop feed. Isn’t this just a set-up, the smell of thatchemical is so darn strong. O well, it’s all for the promise of a promotion…”
Se Caiwas stunned by this doctor’s inner thoughts. He tried activating hismind-reading skill again to find out more about this dimethyl pyridine but awarning issued in his mind.
“Failureto activate mind-reading skill! Elementary mind-reading skill is limited to 2usages per day. Please upgrade skill if the host wishes to increase usagenumber.”
“d.a.m.n!There’s limitation to things that I’ve paid for?!”
Se Caiwas so caught up in his inner turmoil that he didn’t notice the doctor that hadmoved beside him.
“Mr Se?Mr Se?”
DoctorWong frowned as he waved his hand in front of Se Cai. He jotted someobservations in the medical report before adding, “Mr Se, it doesn’t appearthat you suffer from any internal injury. The only thing worrying is theconcussion, it seems to be more serious than we suspect. I suggest you take aCT scan and stay for an additional few days for observations. In the meantime, I’llprescribe you some brain supplements…”
“No.That won’t be necessary. Look at me, I’m perfectly fine.”
Se Caisaid hurriedly after he heard the term supplements, “I was only temporarilys.p.a.ced out. I’m feeling alright, you can even discharge me this moment.”
Eventhough he had no idea what dimethyl pyridine was, he had no doubts that it wassomething harmful and he wanted to have nothing to do with it.
“SeCai, stop kidding. You can’t possibly walk of the hospital like this!”
GaoXiang scolded sternly, “Your injury is not serious but since the director hasalready given you leave, why the haste to leave the hospital? Listen to thedoctor, I’m sure doctor wong only wants what’s best for you. Why are you sointent on going back to the life of a slave? You have to savor this goldenopportunity to rest…”
“Stop!I’m serious, I want to leave this hospital now. There so many things waitingfor me to do, I don’t want to be the person responsible for bringing our wholeteam down.”
Se Caiconfirmed in a tone that brook no argument.
If hewasn’t privy to the trap that was waiting for him, Se Cai wouldn’t even dreamof leaving the comfort of his bed. Staying there spelt certain doom so he mightas well try his luck outside!
Thedoctor wasn’t expecting Se Cai to be so adamant on leaving the hospital so hefl.u.s.tered, “Mr. Se, I seriously do not advise you to leave the hospital withyour current condition…”
“Doctor,you yourself said my physical’s a non-issue and my brain… well, it’s doing justfine.”
Se Caismiled, tapping his head lightly.
“Well,as fine as it could be with a mysterious future system bound to it…” was thesentence that he didn’t finish.
“SeCai, you…”
GaoXiang stammered because he had not seen this side of his friend before.
Then, asalacious smile crept to his face, “Now I understand. Bro, you’re stillthinking about our star anchorwoman right? I’ve said she wanted to thank youpersonally when you’re discharged so you’re anxious to go on this date, isn’tit…”
“F*ck,what kind of person do you think I am?”
Se Caichastised him half-jokingly.
Howeverthe mention of Zhang Xin Yu’s name did remind him of something. The gang ofthug wanted to mean her harm as well!
Se Caidoubted they would really injure a woman, but in any case, it was necessary towarn her.
Se Caicouldn’t reveal all these before the doctor, so he only smiled lightly.Gripping the rail of his bed, he feigned concern, “Aren’t we following theCounty Beautification news? You’ll need my help to finish it. Surely I can’tleave the whole a.s.signment to you.”
GaoXiang saw Se Cai’s determination so he sighed, “Fine, didn’t know you’re sodedicated to the job. But please stay in the studio to do the paperwork, don’trun outside w.i.l.l.y-nilly.”
Yes, SeCai was dedicated to his job but he had a completely different job in mind.
He wasready to throw himself back into work, fully determined to begin the expose onBlue Sky Rehab!
