Chapter 1307: Sun Kai in trouble
Next day.
Morning 10 am.
Dong Xuebing slept in the wee hours of the morning and woke up late. The sun was up when he woke up to wash up.
Dong Xuebing discovered a new command last night but experimented with it a few times because he was tired. He did not use SLOWER straight away. He took out his phone and started recording a video. He positioned his phone on a shelf, facing him, and started putting toothpaste on his toothbrush.
All right.
SLOW!
The air seemed to become still.
Dong Xuebing started brus.h.i.+ng his teeth as he usually did. One time… five times… ten times… his hand could feel a bit of resistance on the toothbrush. It felt similar when he used STOP. But the resistance is not as strong as STOP. Like STOP, he was the only person not affected by his SLOW. He continued moving as usual and did not feel any difference. Other things were affected by his powers. For example, the water and foam from his mouth would drop slowly into the sink. The water from the tap dripped in slow motion.
OK.
Deactivate SLOW.
There was a vibration in the air, and Dong Xuebing’s remaining time stopped decreasing.
Dong Xuebing wiped his hands, stopped the recording, and played it.
Play… Dong Xuebing was putting toothpaste on his toothbrush.
A few seconds later, Dong Xuebing used SLOW. Dong Xuebing’s hand in the video moved fast until it was blurred. His movements were faster than anything in the world. It looked like he had installed a motor in his hand. His toothbrush moved more than ten times in a second.
It was too fast.
Dong Xuebing’s phone could not even capture his hand’s movements.
Dong Xuebing deleted the clip after watching it. He laughed as he rinsed his mouth.
The effects were what he imagined.
SLOW will slow the time, and everyone and everything will be affected. This means Dong Xuebing, unaffected by the effect, will move faster.
SLOW!
This is a good power.
It is more effective than STOP during fights.
MENU: Shows the remaining time.
STOP: Time stop.
BACK: Turn back time.
REVERSE: Turn back time on a specific object.
FORWARD: Fast forward the time on a specific object.
Now, Dong Xuebing has a new power. SLOW. Slow down the time.
Dong Xuebing was satisfied. He has a variety of powers now.
Dong Xuebing did not continue to experiment with SLOW as his remaining time was not a lot. He prepared a simple breakfast and laid on his bed after eating it. He continued to read those medical books. He was more serious this time and finished reading one book at night. He rested and watched the DVDs for the next few hours.
Medicine…
This subject is profound.
Dong Xuebing was engrossed, watching the DVDs and reading books for two days.
No one looked for him, and he focused on learning medicine.
Night. 9 pm.
Ring… ring… ring… Xie Jing’s number appeared on Dong Xuebing’s phone.
Dong Xuebing was tired after reading for so many days. He was about to sleep, and he answered his phone.
“Xiao Jing?”
“Are you sleeping, Brother-in-law?”
“Almost. Haha… I am reading.”
“Oh, Sun Kai is leaving tomorrow afternoon.”
“So early? School trips should be a few days.”
“It’s been many days. Their school had given them a big budget for this trip. Sun Kai discussed with me, and we hope we can treat you to lunch tomorrow.”
“Sure. I am fine. What time?”
“Let’s meet at noon. Sun Kai is staying near your place. We can meet at North Heping Road and decide where to go.”
“Ok. See you tomorrow.”
“Have a good rest.”
“Same to you. Good night.”
Dong Xuebing hung up and looked at the time. He put his book aside and laid on his bed.
Ten minutes…
Half an hour…
One hour…
Ring… ring… ring… Dong Xuebing’s phone rang again.
Dong Xuebing was sleeping, and he reached around for a while before finding his phone. He did not see who the caller was and answered with his eyes closed. “h.e.l.lo, who is it?”
“It’s me.”
“Mum?”
It is Luan Xiaoping.
Dong Xuebing asked. “Why are you calling so late at night? I am sleeping.”
Luan Xiaoping asked anxiously. “You asked your Uncle Yang to arrange a school for a teacher, Sun Kai. How is he related to you? Is he your friend?”
Dong Xuebing replied. “Yes. What is it?”
Luan Xiaoping took a deep breath and said. “Something bad happened to him in Beijing.”
“Something happened?” Dong Xuebing was shocked. “What happened? We are supposed to meet for lunch tomorrow.”
Luan Xiaoping said anxiously. “Your Uncle Yang just found out. A teacher on the school trip said a few schoolgirls met were robbed when they were out. The students were pretty, and those robbers wanted to rape them. They dragged the students into an alley. Sun Kai and other teachers noticed the missing students when they checked the rooms and went out to look for them. Sun Kai saw those robbers dragging the students into the alley, and he went to stop them. They fought.” She paused for a second and said. “He managed to save the female students but was stabbed by those robbers. The students called for help, but it was too late. Sun Kai is not going to make it.”
“What!” Dong Xuebing sat up, and his sleepiness was gone. “Where is he now? Which hospital is he in now?”
Luan Xiaoping replied. “He is near to our old apartment. The ambulance sent him to Heping Hospital.
Dong Xuebing wore his shoes. “I will go over now.”
Dong Xuebing did not expect this to happen. He does not have enough time to turn back the clock with BACK. He got dressed quickly and ran out.
