Hong Dali took a look at the Achievement section of the System panel. Previously, he had been rewarded with 30 points for the three side missions and 30 points for helping Xiaoyu deal with his relations.h.i.+p issues. Today, completing two side missions gave 20 points, catching the thief and aiding the old grandpa gave a total of 40 achievement points, so he now had a total of 120 achievement points. He already had enough to exchange for one piece of the Eternal Abyss Thunder Suit!

Great! Wahahaha! He would exchange it once he got home and give it to Great-grandfather. He would definitely be overjoyed!

However, it was a pity that he could only get one piece and would not be able to activate any set bonuses. If only there were more hidden missions…

Just as Hong Dali was thinking about it, the System suddenly prompted. "Hidden mission available. Mission Level: SS level. Mission Description: Save the abandoned baby. Mission Reward: 120 Achievement points."

"The specific location of the mission has been sent to the Host"s Weixin, please check."

d.a.m.n, SS level hidden mission?! The reward was 120 Achievement points?!

Hong Dali hurriedly took out his smartphone. As soon as he opened Weixin, he saw that there was an article in his friends" circle t.i.tled: "Inhuman parents throw their child into the garbage pipe!"

"d.a.m.n! Inhumane people, ahhhhh!" Hong Dali cursed after looking at the article. "Such parents should be shot!"

"What"s the matter?" Gu Feifei and Cutie Ke were a little surprised—Hong Dali was not someone who scolded others easily.

"Come on! Hurry!" Hong Dali took the lead and ran out. "Someone is dying!"

He ran. Gu Feifei and Cutie Ke hurried to keep up. They went straight out of the mall and called for the manager to bring the car. Hong Dali followed the map on his smartphone and headed straight for the incident site.

Sure enough, they did not travel far before they saw many people rus.h.i.+ng into an alley. As they ran, they said, "Let"s go see. They found a child in the rubbish chute over there. Such a poor child, he got thrown away even before his umbilical cord was cut. Sigh!" "Ah? So pitiful? Hurry, let"s go take a look!"

"In the alley, let"s get out of the car!" Hong Dali instructed the manager to park the car. The four of them quickly rushed into the alley. Soon, they saw a large group of people surrounding a garbage chute in a residential area. All of them craned their necks to look inside. From time to time, the weak cry of a baby could be heard.

There was really a child!

Hong Dali was furious. By this time he did not care about anything else. With Gu Feifei, Cutie Ke and the manager, he pushed his way through the crowd and rushed in. When he saw the child, he was stunned.

It was indeed a newborn baby. The umbilical cord was still attached to the placenta. Because he was thrown down the rubbish chute, he had multiple abrasions on and around his body. Part of the skin on his forehead had been sc.r.a.ped off and the bone underneath was visible. His eyes had not even opened yet and he made weak mewling sounds from time to time. Blood was spurting from his mouth.


He was badly injured, and it was no exaggeration to say that even if he were taken to the hospital now, he might not make it.

The onlookers all made faces showing their unwillingness to see the baby in such a state. They all sighed. "It"s a crime. Even if they did not want this child, they should have put it safely at the roadside rather than do this. It"ll at least be better if he was adopted by a kind person. Anything is better than this!""Yeah, this is a sin, who is the heartless person!?""The parents ought to be shot!"

Poor child.

With a heavy heart, Hong Dali quickly walked forward and took off his s.h.i.+rt. He did not care about the dirt and gently picked the baby up after he had wrapped him up. Then, he took a Dali Bean from the s.p.a.ce watch, crushed it with his fingers, and gently squeezed the juice into the baby"s mouth.

Dali Beans were discovered by Hong Dali when he was on that other Earth. It could be used here too as both dimensions were similarly low-tech.

The baby was already very weak and it was panting hard. Although he had just been born, he still fought bravely against death. And Hong Dali had given him a boost.

"Wahhh—!!!" After he fed the juice of the Dali Bean to the baby, he could feel the baby"s temperature rise by a little. He was not vomiting blood out by the mouthfuls anymore. He took two ragged breaths and finally quietened down. He seemed to be feeling better.

"Get out of the way, get out of the way!" It was obvious that this baby was too small. He had just been born and his umbilical cord had not even been cut yet. It was impossible to save his life by relying only on Dali beans. Hong Dali carried the child and ran desperately out to the road, intending to stop a car and ask it to send them to the hospital.

"Scram!" growled Krishnata, who had been very cute and adorable all this while. She was from the Dragon Family, and her Dragon Breath terrified the crowd.

"Wail—" Just as Hong Dali rushed out of the crowd with the baby in his arms, he saw the ambulance screech into the street. A few doctors hurried off the vehicle from the car and quickly asked, "Where is the child?"

"Here, here." Hong Dali was so anxious he broke out in cold sweat. "Quickly, get to the hospital before it"s too late!"

Words at this time were superfluous. It was more important to save lives.

Hong Dali got onto the vehicle and the ambulance siren wailed. Gu Feifei, Cutie Ke, and the manager returned to the car and followed it. Making haste, they sped to the hospital.

Seeing the ambulance leaving, the onlookers stood up and started applauding. Everyone cheered for Hong Dali. "Young man, good job! Well done!" "There aren"t many youngsters like him these days, sigh!" "A good deed will not go unrewarded, that"s for sure!""This young man is sure to become someone important in the future!""That girl is really scary, that voice was terrifying!"

On the ambulance.

The doctor first cut off the umbilical cord, then gave the baby oxygen. He disinfected the wound with alcohol saturated cotton. The child was obviously very weak and did not even have the strength to cry. He just laid there with his eyes closed and his body would twitch occasionally.

"Doctor, can this child be saved?" Hong Dali"s heart was heavy. Achievement points did not matter. He did not want a newborn life to die just like that.

"I hope so. He"s in a really bad state at the moment. We can only do our best." The doctor sighed, his tone grim. "It"s a sin. Such a cute baby and he got thrown away just like that. Sigh, how many people want a child but are unable to. This…"

Hong Dali also sighed. Life was so beautiful, but such a little baby had to leave this world as soon as it was born…

"Oh right, who are you to him?" asked the doctor.

"I heard about it and just went to take a look." Hong Dali looked at the child tenderly. He took out another Dali Bean and squeezed the juice into the baby"s mouth. He said, "You don"t have to worry about the medical bill. Just let me know how much you need, I just want him to live."

"There aren"t many kind-hearted young men like you these days. How about this, I"ll apply to the hospital regarding the bills." The doctor said, "I"ll try my best to lower the bill for you. By the way, the thing you just let him drink…"

"My hometown"s specialty. If someone is seriously injured, drip a little of the juice. It seems to help a little." Hong Dali casually found an excuse to fob the doctor off. "Which hospital are you from?"

"The Second Hospital of Shencheng Medical University." The doctor looked out the window. "We"re here."

The Second Hospital of Shencheng Medical University was a well-known hospital in northeast China. Hong Dali nodded and watched as the doctors carefully picked up the baby. He said, "Use whatever you need, don"t worry about money. I only have one request."

As he spoke, he looked at the little life lying in his clothes and breathing hard. In a low voice, he said, "I want him to live."

"I want him to live."

With that sentence from him, all the medical staff in the ambulance felt great respect for him and everyone bowed at Hong Dali.

"We will do our best." The doctor looked solemn and said, "As long as there is a glimmer of hope, we will strive for it." When he finished speaking, he held the child and ran inside. However, because the hospital was so famous and the technology so good, there were many patients. It was not easy to get inside quickly despite their yells.

"This is not good." Hong Dali looked at the bustling crowd on the first floor of the hospital and frowned.

There were simply too many people, even the medical staff had problems getting in.

So, Hong Dali pulled the doctor behind him and let Cutie Ke stand at the door to the hospital. She took a deep breath—

"Make way—!!"

"Make way—" "Make way—" "Make way—" "Make way—"…

This roar, like a dragon"s breath, echoed in the hall on the first floor of the entire hospital. Everyone was stunned, screaming as they moved aside. The entire hall on the first floor was instantly quiet and empty.

"Hurry, move quickly, the child"s temperature is falling!" At this time, there was no need to be concerned about anything else. The doctor rushed inside with the child in his arms. Hong Dali followed closely behind him and they finally got on the elevator dedicated to medical staff.

"Phew, that was hard." The doctor wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. "All thanks to you. Otherwise, it would not be easy to come in quickly. There are too many people."

"Why don"t you expand your facilities?" Hong Dali asked curiously, "You are doing so well, it should not be a problem to expand?"

"It"s not a problem, but it"s hard to find good doctors." The doctor smiled bitterly. "If we expand and our standards drop, it"s not worth it. By the way, my name is Tan Qingsheng, you are…"

"My name is Hong Dali," Hong Dali smiled, "the prodigal Hong Dali."

"Pro… prodigal?" Dr. Tan Qingsheng froze, then said with a smile, "Hehe, if all prodigals in the world are like Mr. Dali, the world will be peaceful."

"Don"t ask for too much, hehe." Hong Dali nodded and gently touched the baby"s hand. The little boy had recovered a little because he had eaten the Dali Beans. He seemed to sense something. His fist which had been clenched so far opened and he touched Hong Dali"s hand.
