Luo Ling was originally planning to move bricks...

After all, she was so strong that she could lift the bucket cart until it started smoking.

"You little girl who has never seen the world, the money of ordinary people is not worth mentioning in front of the awakened," Wu Hai, who had been silent, said disdainfully, "Sacred bones are the hard currency."

"Didn't Mr. Ji tell you to shut up?"

Liu Songyi glanced at Wu Hai, who just snorted coldly and stopped talking.

"My reputation is on it, just add me when you're done."

Liu Songyi handed over another business card, which, in addition to his name and contact information, also included the path and title he practiced.

"Judgment" path, "Ancient Warrior".

"Go back early and don't let your family worry."

After Liu Songyi said the last sentence, he pulled Wu Hai, or rather dragged him away from the door of the ward.

Yang Meili looked at Luo Ling with a hint of amusement, then walked away with her waist twisted.

Only the girl in the wheelchair remained there. She moved closer to Luo Ling and said in a friendly manner,

"Hello, little sister. My Chinese name is Liu Qian, you can also call me Elsa."

Although the sound that came out without opening the mouth was still ethereal, it had become coherent, as if she had sensed that Luo Ling was not afraid of the special magic in her voice.

Chapter 30: The Red Witch and the White Witch

Elsa was very happy. She had just discovered that Luo Ling was not in a trance at all when listening to her.

This was the first time she met a friend with whom she could have a direct conversation, and who was of the same age.

Even for Old Ji, when she heard her own voice, her mind would inevitably be disturbed, causing her to speak slower and as little as possible every time she spoke.

If the other awakened ones heard Elsa's continuous voice, they might go into shock in serious cases.

Elsa is not a quiet person, but because of this reason, she can only be silent helplessly.

"Foreigner?"

Luo Ling then took a closer look at the wheelchair girl for the first time and discovered that her face really did look like a doll and her fair skin seemed as delicate as a baby's - of course, compared to Luo Ling's pale skin, this was relatively normal.

The slightly curly hair was not black, but a duller brown-red. With a puffy Lolita skirt, she looked like a little princess from medieval Europe.

"Yeah," Elsa nodded and asked curiously, "Miss, you are not from China either?"

The main reason is that Luo Ling's white hair and pale skin are too conspicuous. Very few Chinese people have this kind of hair color, and even if they dye their hair deliberately, it is difficult to make it this white.

"...Of course I am."

Luo Ling couldn't help but grin. How come he was almost deprived of his nationality just because his hair turned white...

"Oh, sorry..."

A trace of panic flashed across Elsa's face.

"Stupid Elsa! Stupid Elsa! Stupid Elsa!"

The teddy bear in her arms started to yell triumphantly. This chaotic evil teddy bear even its owner liked to mock.

"It's ok."

Looking at Elsa who was as obedient as a kitten, Luo Ling's depressed mood of the past few days was slightly relieved.

However...this little girl named Elsa, or Liu Xi, is indeed visibly weird.

Although she never opened her eyes or spoke, she could see and speak.

Perhaps this was Elsa's ability. Luo Ling was just curious for a while but did not ask any questions.

"Little sister, how should I call you?" Elsa asked cautiously.

"Just call me Bai." Luo Ling said lightly.

"Don't you have a code name or something?" Elsa tilted her head, a sweet smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, "For example, my code name is "Red Witch"."

Codename...

For example, "Skeleton Doctor" or "Ancient Warrior"?

But...is this necessary?

As if she noticed that Luo Ling was confused about the title, Elsa explained,

"It's best for awakened people not to tell others all their abilities, but they must always cooperate with others. Code names can briefly tell others what their abilities are and what they can do... For example, I may look delicate, but I'm actually very strong!"

She clenched her little pink fist, a smug smile on her lips, "I am the killer in the patient group. Whenever they encounter something strange that the group members can't solve, they always send me over!"

"The terrifying murderer Elsa!"

The toy bear popped in at the right moment to interject.

"No, no!" Elsa covered the mouth of the toy bear tightly, "Little Bella, stop talking nonsense!"

If this is the case, it does not seem incomprehensible.

Luo Ling nodded thoughtfully.

"I don't really have a code name."

"How about calling her 'White Witch'?" Elsa suddenly had an idea and she slammed her hand in surprise. "Look, 'White Witch' and 'Red Witch', they sound like partners!"

Perhaps it was because she hadn't talked to anyone like this for a long time, Elsa seemed particularly talkative.

But, the White Witch...

Luo Ling pondered for a while and decided that it was possible.

The ability she is currently demonstrating is healing, which is usually called white magic in storybooks, so the code name "White Witch" is quite appropriate.

"Oh, sorry, I guess I'm too excited..."

Elsa didn't hear Luo Ling's answer and thought she was being too aggressive, so she shrank her head.

Damn it, I finally found a friend who can talk to me properly, I can't let myself be disliked because of this...

"It's okay, it's fine." Luo Ling nodded slightly, "Let's call it "White Witch". I happen to be on the "All Spirits" path, and my ability is healing."

She extended her hand, the corners of her mouth curled up slightly, "Happy partnership, Scarlet Witch."

"partner!"

Hearing this, Elsa's face immediately brightened up. She stretched out her hand and shook hands with Luo Ling, but her movements seemed a little unfamiliar and awkward, as if she rarely interacted with others in this way.

"I should go back now," Luo Ling stood up, "If I'm any later...my family will be worried."

"Uh-huh."

Elsa nodded, her cute doll-like face showing unconcealed joy.

Finally... I have a friend who can listen to me. Although my other brothers and sisters are very nice to me,... they can't listen to what I say.

Luo Ling put the money Liu Songyi had just given her into her own pocket, said goodbye to Elsa, and left Qingshan Hospital.

Halfway through the journey, Luo Ling used spores to explore the surroundings. After seeing no human figures, he returned to his original appearance, changed back into his school uniform, and went straight home.

......

"Bai...she has a lot of secrets, and she might be a little dangerous."

Liu Songyi crossed his arms and said in a deep voice.

As a criminal policeman, he rushed to the murder scene as soon as possible and made a preliminary assessment of the murderer's approximate strength.

Almost any second-order awakener can handle it, and it is considered a weaker existence among low-sequence monsters.

But... the traces of the battle showed that its opponent was extremely powerful and killed it almost instantly.

The specific strength is immeasurable.

The unknown is often the most terrifying thing, so it is normal for Liu Songyi, who is cautious by nature, to feel fearful about it.

The reason why he knew Luo Ling's pseudonym was that he had looked through Director Li's visit records during the search.

"Of course I know that."

Ji Shinian said slowly, his injuries became much more serious after he accidentally glanced at the thread of fate again.

"But..."

Liu Songyi frowned slightly.

"Xiao Liu, don't pursue this matter any further. I certainly have my own considerations." Ji Shinian's mouth showed a bit of bitterness, "Now there are three managers, one is still in a deep sleep, and one has met with an accident. You are the only one left to support...

"But even in this small Jiangcheng County, we are not the only ones..."

He glanced at Liu Songyi implicitly, "Compared to being weird, perhaps the awakened ones who are also human beings... are more dangerous."

"Mr. Ji, do you mean... the reason for recruiting her is mainly to prevent her from joining other forces?" Liu Songyi asked doubtfully, "Is she really that important?"

Ji Shinian did not directly answer Liu Songyi's question, but instead talked about something else. "Xiao Liu, how long did it take you to awaken and become a third-level awakener?"

Liu Songyi said seriously, "About two years."

"A hundred years ago, with a talent like yours, it would take at least thirty years to advance from level zero to a level three awakener."

"what?"

Liu Songyi was slightly stunned. His promotion speed was not considered particularly fast.

The strongest among the patients right now is Elsa, a fourth-order awakener...but her abilities are relatively indiscriminate, making it easy for her to accidentally injure friendly forces.

If the skeleton doctor Wu Qin were still alive, he would probably be between level 4 and 5.

"Because you used the Holy Relics to speed up the distance of the path, and in the era when I lived, the Holy Relics were much more precious than they are now... because "weirdness" rarely appears."

Ji Shinian said calmly, "In the past hundred years, the number of weirdos and awakened people has been increasing rapidly. The conflicts in the 'real' world have become more and more serious. I don't know how many cities and organizations have disappeared in the long river of history. Even the superficial peace is difficult to maintain.

“Today, we live in an era of great change. If we don’t want to be eliminated in this cruel change, we must do everything possible to seize factors, whether they are ‘important’ or ‘unimportant’.

"...even if it's just to stay alive, we must do our best."

Chapter 31 I'm Rich

"Xiao Ling, why did you come back so late?"

Su Wan said this in a blaming tone, but she looked quite happy.

Luo Ling put down her backpack and answered, "The school kept an extra class, which delayed me a bit."

"Okay, just listen to the teacher and study hard." Su Wan was pleased and helped Luo Ling take off her school uniform. "You must be starving, right? Come on, eat more..."

My sister put a lot of dishes on the table, all of which were Luo Ling’s favorites.

only...

The half bag of pickles carefully packed in the kitchen not far away revealed what kind of life Su Wan had been living during the time when Luo Ling was not at home.

My sister has suffered so much for me...

A trace of heartache flashed across Luo Ling's face, but she then secretly hid these emotions deep in her heart.

She took out a few hundred-dollar bills and held them in front of her sister, showing a happy expression.

"Sister, this money is all for you. This is... a scholarship from the school."

Liu Songyi gave Luo Ling a total of more than 30,000 yuan. Although Luo Ling wanted to give all the money to her sister, she had no way to explain to her sister the origin of the money.

After careful consideration, Luo Ling decided to take a little at a time and slowly improve the family income so that her sister would not have to live such a hard life.

"Scholarship?" Su Wan was slightly surprised. She took the money from Luo Ling with both hands, counted it carefully several times, and exclaimed, "It's actually 500 yuan!"

"Yeah," Luo Ling nodded like a little chicken pecking at rice, "I'll give it all to you, sister."

"This..." Su Wan hesitated and wanted to put the money back into Luo Ling's hand, "I'd better give it back to you, Xiao Ling, sister...there is nothing that needs money."

"Nonsense!" Luo Ling deliberately showed a dissatisfied expression, "Sister, you haven't changed your clothes for several years, and you have lost so much weight recently, you must not have eaten well... Although 500 yuan is still not enough, we can make do with it."

Su Wan wanted to refuse, but Luo Ling continued,

"You said that once I could make money, I could enjoy life. I have made 500 yuan now! I will make more money in the future! Don't you want to use all that money?"
