Chapter 158 Xiuluo Field
Chapter 158 Xiuluo Field
Hero Association Affiliated Hospital.
Psionic Surgery Office.
A young doctor wearing gold-rimmed glasses sat behind his desk, reviewing electronic medical records on the screen.
S-class hero [Moira], real name Yuan Wuyi, is currently working overtime.
Not long ago, news came that Rongcheng Medical College had been attacked by a strange person, followed by the arrival of the villainous magical girl "Hellcat" and the sighting of an unfamiliar black magical girl.
The resulting chaos caused the Hero Association a major headache, forcing them to take it seriously.
"So you were called in to work overtime?"
Beside the desk, Meteor sipped a coconut latte and spoke with great interest.
Yuan Wuyi rolled her eyes at her.
"Of course. Oh, thanks to you, otherwise I'd still be stuck in traffic right now."
"yes……"
Meteor nodded and murmured in reply.
Five minutes ago, I also received an emergency dispatch notice from the Hero Association. When I went outside, I found that the sky above Chengdu was full of beams of magic missiles and magic cannons. The scene was spectacular, just like a fireworks show.
Then Meteor saw Yuan Wuyi stuck in traffic and used his teleportation ability to send him to the hospital.
"But I heard the casualties were quite small," Meteor continued.
"The staff on duty at Rongcheng Medical College said that apart from the building damage, there weren't many injured people at the scene. The most serious injuries were just bumps and bruises, so there shouldn't be any major problems."
"Could it be that kid Xin Yuehu again...?"
The two exchanged a glance and remained silent.
Since the appearance of Xin Yuehu, the casualty rate of attacks by strange people in Rongcheng has dropped sharply, from an average of double digits per attack to zero, which is truly an admirable level of security.
However, she claims to be a villain and has repeatedly interfered with the normal work and life of the residents of Rongcheng. The association simply cannot define her as a legitimate magical girl.
Before the two could speak, a series of hurried footsteps suddenly came from outside the corridor.
The office door opened from the outside, and a deep blue magical girl appeared in the doorway, startling the two of them.
"Hmm? You are...?"
"Are you Dr. Moira?"
Hellcat said anxiously, showing the two people in front of him the pale-faced, unconscious golden fox in his arms.
"Please, please save her!"
……
Su Tianqing's consciousness gradually returned to her body.
I heard the beeping of an instrument in my ear, and behind me was a soft, spacious bed. My arm felt slightly sore, as if a blood pressure monitor was taking my blood pressure.
"Breathing is easy."
"My oxygen saturation is good, and my blood pressure is normal."
"Go and get her a bottle of saline solution to rehydrate her. Remember to use the orc-grade solution."
Ah... is this a hospital?
Was I killed by the magic cannon of the iris flower? Why am I here...?
The golden fox tried to roll over, but as soon as it moved, a sharp pain shot through the base of its tail, as if it had been pinned down.
"Huh?!"
With a cry of pain, Su Tianqing frowned.
"Hmm? You're awake?"
The doctor, who was observing the electrocardiogram monitor by the bedside, was also startled by the golden fox. After looking closely, he breathed a sigh of relief.
"How are you feeling? Is there anything bothering you?"
"My tail, my tail hurts."
"It's probably pressed too hard. Try adjusting it yourself."
Su Tianqing silently moved her tail in a different direction and lay obediently on the bed to contemplate her fox life.
First of all, I am not dead.
The feel of the ears and tail is proof of this.
Secondly, I was sent to the hospital.
The person next to me is Moira, whom I met last time. She seems to be from the Hero Association Affiliated Hospital.
Who sent me here? A hellcat? Or an iris?
With her mind a jumbled mess and her stomach upset, feeling like she was about to vomit her intestines out, Su Tianqing felt like a completely useless fox spirit, paralyzed in bed.
I feel fine when I use flight magic, so why do I feel so dizzy when someone else carries me?
The golden-haired fox turned to the doctor beside it and said:
"Hello doctor, may I ask... what's your name?"
"Moira. You can also call me Yuan Wuyi." The doctor, who called himself Wuyi, nodded and said.
"Thank you, Doctor Wuyi... Who brought me here?" Su Tianqing asked.
"Well..." Yuan Wuyi hesitated for a moment, wondering whether to tell the truth.
Should we tell her the truth: the Hellcat sent her here? Or...?
Seeing Yuan Wuyi's hesitation, Su Tianqing immediately understood.
It must be Little Fish. She wouldn't dare stay in the Hero Association for too long as Hellcat. She'll definitely go out, deactivate her transformation, and then find a way to come back.
Before the words were even finished in her mind, the nurse walked in from outside the door and whispered two sentences to Moira.
"...Okay, I understand. Let the family members in." The doctor nodded and replied.
Su Tianqing looked towards the doorway.
The deep blue catgirl peeked out and secretly looked at him, her eyes filled with fear and worry. After seeing that he was safe and sound, she breathed a sigh of relief, as if a heavy burden had been lifted.
Immediately afterward, when she saw the subtle expression on the golden fox's face, a bead of cold sweat dripped down the cat girl's temple.
—The Shura Field is imminent.
...
The ward was quiet.
The electrocardiogram monitor was removed, leaving only an IV stent with a bottle of saline solution that was barely adequate.
The golden fox leaned against the headboard of the hospital bed, sipping a cup of warm water. A timid, dark blue catgirl sat beside the bed.
Fox remained silent, while Cat Girl felt uneasy, her tail bulging and her ears pressed tightly against her head, too afraid to utter a sound.
Nan Jiayu felt she had never been so nervous before.
Even when I couldn't understand a single word during the exam, I had never experienced such a tense situation as today.
"...Little Fish".
The sudden, soft call made the catgirl's fur stand on end.
"...Yes, yes."
"Little Fish, did you get hurt today?"
"They're just minor injuries, I can take a lot of punches, and besides..."
Before the catgirl could finish speaking, she looked up and met the resentful gaze of the fox in front of her.
"Little fish."
"...Hmm, hmm."
"Were you the one who brought me here?"
"...Yes." The catgirl nodded.
"Were you the one who saved me from the Razor Fiend?"
"……Too."
"The person who carried me through the air all the way..."
"...It's still me."
The catgirl was covered in cold sweat.
Nan Jia fish! You have committed three sins today!
First, the crime of deceiving the fox! How dare you hide the fact that you are Hellcat!
Second, bear the blame for the fox! Even in a moment of desperation, disregarding the fox's comfort is intolerable!
The third jump, and also the most important one—
"Little Fish, come here."
Before the self-criticism in her mind had even ended, the catgirl heard the fox's voice in her ear.
The girl swallowed hard, closed her eyes tightly, and leaned forward, bracing herself for a slap.
The familiar soft touch and the rich scent of gardenias made the catgirl freeze in place, staring blankly at the golden fox that was so close to her.
"Little fish, you protected me today."
"Consider this a thank-you gift for today."
The golden fox gave a charming smile, and the cat girl's heart trembled. She clutched the hem of her clothes, too afraid to speak.
But before the warmth of that tender moment could dissipate, the fox's whisper sent a chill down the catgirl's spine once more:
"But don't think this is the end of it, little fish~"
"Let's have a proper talk when we get back later."
Nan Jiayu's eyes went black.
I thought this matter was over, but little did I know that the real battle of cultivation had just begun.
