"Clank!~"
【Danger Alert】: Warning! You are under threat to your life, a random counterattack skill is being granted. Please choose.
Suddenly, a dice appeared in front of Chen Weidong, spinning non-stop.
"Damn it, they say I can choose, but there's actually no choice at all. Let's leave it to fate."
With a thought, the dice stopped immediately. A golden light flashed, and Chen Weidong felt a warm sensation all over his body, which seemed quite comfortable.
【Important Notice】: Congratulations! You have learned the Bronze-level skill "Flying Dragon Cloud Hand"!~
【Flying Dragon Cloud Hand】 (Bronze Quality): When activated, it can steal a certain amount of money, items, or skills from the enemy target.
Chen Weidong was stunned for a moment and couldn't help but curse in his heart: "What the hell, this is a scam! They said it was a counterattack skill, but they gave me this lousy thing? What kind of counterattack is this? And it's only Bronze quality, more like a frog's quality!"
Mufeng watched Chen Weidong for a while, then suddenly smiled and turned to leave, leaving behind a lingering fragrance.
Chen Weidong's tense nerves finally relaxed.
To be honest, the pressure from that terrifying woman was immense! Especially since he was a perception-type ability user, he had a natural sensitivity to danger. They had glared at each other for a long time, and his back was drenched in sweat.
Before he could catch his breath, his nerves tightened again—damn it, the big witch had just left, and the little witch was already here. Was this a relay attack? Wasn't he allowed to live?
"What's wrong, did Sister Shuang scare you?" Shen Susu saw that he looked pale and teased him.
"Still okay, I got used to it after being scared a few times." Chen Weidong forced a smile and brushed it off.
"Don't blame her, it's the rule. It's the same for everyone."
"Okay." Chen Weidong nodded to show his understanding.
"By the way, what do you want to do with a month's time? Don't tell me you want to go back and see your campus beauty girlfriend? I can help arrange your trip, buy your ticket, and it's on me."
Chen Weidong looked at Su Su and was a bit surprised: Wasn't this girl obsessed with money before? Why is she suddenly so generous?
Hmm, something's not right, there must be a catch!
Of course, he couldn't say that out loud. After some thought, he replied, "No need. Since we broke up, there's no need to meet again. I'm going back to see my grandfather. It's been three years, and I haven't written him a letter or made a call. I feel quite guilty."
"Huh? Why?" Su Su's eyes widened in confusion.
"Because... at first, I didn't want to join the military, but he forced me to. We had a big argument over it. Now, thinking back, it was childish. This time, I'm going to apologize to him and ask for his forgiveness."
"Oh, I see..." Su Su nodded subconsciously and added, "You're from Lu'an, so I won't arrange anything for you. You can go back on your own. Remember, you have one month. Sister Shuang has a strong sense of time, and the consequences of being late are serious."
Chen Weidong couldn't help but laugh, "How serious?"
"Why are you asking so many questions? I'm afraid you'll have nightmares!" Shen Susu waved her little fist and smiled, "No more talk, go on."
"Okay." Chen Weidong was about to get up and leave when he suddenly remembered the new skill. He had a thought and suddenly grabbed the hand of the woman across from him.
"You... what are you doing?" Shen Susu was caught off guard, and a slight blush rose to her face.
"Thank you very much for everything that has happened these past few days. You saved my life, and I will definitely repay you in the future!"
While saying this, Chen Weidong activated the skill and started stealing non-stop!
【Battle Notice】: You used "Flying Dragon Cloud Hand" on the target... Steal failed, 4/5 attempts remaining.
"Damn it!" Chen Weidong cursed in his heart, but now wasn't the time to complain. He could only keep holding her hand and continue stealing.
【Battle Notice】: You used "Flying Dragon Cloud Hand" on the target... Steal failed, 3/5 attempts remaining.
【Battle Notice】: You used "Flying Dragon Cloud Hand" on the target... Steal failed, 2/5 attempts remaining.
【Battle Notice】: You used "Flying Dragon Cloud Hand" on the target... Congratulations! You obtained a pair of breast pads! 1/5 attempts remaining.
"Damn it..." Chen Weidong was too exhausted to complain and decided to use the last attempt quickly.
【Battle Notice】: You used "Flying Dragon Cloud Hand" on the target... Congratulations! You obtained the Silver-level combat skill "Three Elements Sword Technique," 0/5 attempts remaining.
"There's no need to thank me. Why are you so fussy? It's not a big deal. Don't mention it again." Shen Susu used a bit of force to pull her hand away.
"Okay." Chen Weidong's goal was achieved, so he didn't linger and quickly left, too nervous to even look back.
"Really..." After he left, Shen Susu muttered and went to find Mufeng. As she passed the restroom, she suddenly remembered something and reached into her pocket.
To her surprise, her pocket was empty, and the new pair of breast pads she had bought in the morning was gone.
"Huh, when did I lose them..." Shen Susu scratched her head, frowned, and said, "Forget it, I'll ask Sister Shuang for a pair. She should have extras."
...
Chen Weidong walked out of the door, heart pounding. Outside, a scar-faced man with a stern expression was waiting. He didn't say a word, just handed him a blindfold.
Chen Weidong cooperatively put it on and got into the car with him. After a high-speed ride, the blindfold was removed, and a voice said, "The People's Hospital is outside. You can go now."
Chen Weidong opened the car door and got out. The scar-faced man also got out of the driver's seat, took a military green bag from the trunk, and handed it to him.
"Thanks, buddy." Chen Weidong habitually reached into his pocket to offer a cigarette, but found it empty, feeling quite embarrassed.
The scar-faced man smiled, took out a pack of soft Zhonghua, popped one out, put it in his mouth, and then threw the whole pack to Chen Weidong.
Chen Weidong's eyes lit up. He put one in his mouth and took out a Zippo silver lighter, lighting it for the other man first, then for himself.
"Nice gear." The scar-faced man glanced at the lighter and exhaled a stream of blue smoke.
"Heh, I got it during a mission. The old Russian was a chain smoker and had everything on him." Chen Weidong chuckled.
"Alright, go on. Your discharge papers are already arranged by Su Su. The relevant documents are at the nurse's station. Go get them yourself." The scar-faced man waved and got back into the car.
"Take care." Chen Weidong called out and went upstairs.
Jin Qin, the nurse, was chatting with her colleagues when a voice suddenly came from beside her, "Miss, can you please help me? I have some documents here, can you get them for me?"
"Sure, what's your name..." The nurse smiled and turned her head, only to see a familiar, disheveled face.
"Name." The little girl's expression immediately changed, and her tone became cold.
Chen Weidong was taken aback and then forced a bitter smile, "Chen Weidong."
The nurse opened the drawer, took out a stack of papers and an ID card, and handed them to him.
"Thanks." Chen Weidong took the documents and was about to leave.
"Hey." The nurse spoke again, "Doctor Zheng told me to tell you that you are free to leave, but you were seriously injured. It's best not to push yourself. Take care to rest when you get home."
"Okay, thanks." Chen Weidong wanted to say a few words of gratitude, but seeing the nurse's cold expression, he swallowed his words.
As he entered the elevator, a slender figure flashed by the door, but Chen Weidong was focused on studying his newly stolen skill and didn't notice...
Fu Ziqi had her hands behind her back, holding a bouquet of bright flowers, and her face was flushed with a cute blush, as delicate as the flowers.
Several male colleagues passing by glanced at her, their attention involuntarily following her.
To be honest, this girl was beautiful, elegant, and tall, and she knew how to dress well!
Look at those two firm, round buttocks wrapped in a tight, short skirt, and the two legs in black stockings with perfect curves. Which man could resist?
Judging by her height and demeanor, she was probably a flight attendant or a model, or maybe even a lesser-known singer or actress.
A man in his thirties, wearing a suit, was so engrossed in looking at her that he accidentally hit his head on the door frame, causing a burst of laughter.
Fu Ziqi paid no attention. As someone who flew planes every day, she had seen too many such men and didn't let them distract her.
At this moment, all of Fu Ziqi's thoughts were focused on how to speak to him next...
The last time she came to see him, he was still unconscious, lying on the bed like a vegetable.
Thinking about how he fought the vicious hijackers on the plane to save everyone, Fu Ziqi couldn't help but feel a pang of sadness.
Yes, the outcome of the incident was good. All the passengers returned to the ground and were reunited with their loved ones. Even those who were injured had only minor injuries, except for him...
Fu Ziqi had asked the attending doctor, Miss Zheng, who didn't say much but just shook her head slowly.
So, there was no need to say anything more. Everyone was heavy-hearted. This retired hero, who had single-handedly prevented a major air disaster and even a terrorist attack, probably didn't have much time left.
However, the next situation surprised everyone. This man's physique was too good; he was as strong as a bear!
Doctor Zheng called to say that the hero's condition had greatly improved. He was now awake and could speak.
Fu Ziqi was naturally very happy. After this flight, she changed into civilian clothes and rushed over.
Hmm, when they meet, it would be better to introduce herself first and formally get to know him...
Fu Ziqi made up her mind and turned to enter the ward.
But the familiar bed was empty, and the bedside table was neatly cleaned, with no sign of anyone.
Fu Ziqi hurriedly ran out to the nurse's station and urgently asked about the man's whereabouts.
"Oh, you mean that big Chen? He has already..." Nurse Jin Qin, being straightforward, almost said his nickname but stopped, thinking he was a hero who had acted bravely.
"What happened to him!?" Fu Ziqi's heart tightened, and her voice rose an octave.
"He has already left..." The nurse was startled and pointed to the door, adding, "Just now."
Fu Ziqi quickly turned and ran to the window to look down, but the crowd below was bustling, and there was no sign of him.
"Oh, what bad luck." The beautiful flight attendant pouted, plucking a petal and frowning.
