Chapter 735 - 245: Extraordinary Passage, Subordinates in Position!
The screen flickered for a moment, and a dark blue "Rebirth Medical" icon appeared on the interface.
He clicked it open to see only three buttons inside: Treatment Application, Emergency Treatment, and at the bottom, Transfer to Others.
Twenty coupons equal 200,000 Contribution Points. Though he hasn’t officially taken office as Station Chief Yueye, the rewards have already arrived early.
Great!
Cheng Ye secretly felt pleased; in the future, if someone gets hurt, sending them to Rebirth Medical would not be a problem.
"Where’s Luokuke?"
"Inspector Luo is still recuperating. Once his vital signs stabilize, he’ll undergo metal prosthetic limb transplant surgery."
"He had an amputation?" Cheng Ye’s expression paused slightly.
"Yes."
"Alright, I’m going to check on him."
Cheng Ye picked up his coat and walked out the door with a casual air.
A breeze just happened to blow by, and he instinctively touched the top of his head. His hair had grown back, though it was just a layer of stubble, but looking in the mirror by the door, it actually made him look particularly spirited.
Moreover, with the nourishment from Living Water Essence and the transformation by Shrinking Earth Giant Louse, his physique had become increasingly exaggerated!
The whole person had completely left the category of being lean and was starting to become robust.
Originally just over 1.8 meters tall, his height reached 1.9 meters with the second development of his bones, and his arm circumference stuffed his short sleeves full; muscles were clearly visible, exuding a sense of explosive power.
Because of spending days in underground space, his previously tanned skin from Dapo Town had transformed into a healthy wheat color.
Cheng Ye raised his hand to touch his chest; two rock-solid pectoral muscles made him feel a bit unfamiliar.
Am I this strong?
He couldn’t help but laugh; now he was like a human-shaped weapon, very much like the special forces soldiers he had seen on TV before crossing worlds. Even compared to Liu Bi, he was only lacking a bit in height.
The previously gentle and weak demeanor had completely disappeared, replaced by a pure wasteland elite aura.
"Quite nice, I like this feeling."
Cheng Ye turned around and strode, suddenly realizing something amiss.
Unexpectedly, after six days of coma, his control over his body had surprisingly recovered quite a lot.
Although not yet to the fluidity of before, at least the "loss of control" situation would no longer easily occur.
Arriving at Building Two, the medical personnel on duty at the entrance recognized him at a glance.
Or rather, after sleepless running, there was no one at Rebirth Medical who didn’t recognize Chief Cheng.
"Inspector Cheng, this way please, Inspector Luo’s ward is on the sixth floor."
Cheng Ye nodded slightly.
Different floors correspond to different statuses.
Moreover, the lower the floor, the more rooms there are on each level.
Similar to his top floor having two rooms, while the sixth floor where Luokuke is has as many as six rooms.
However, each room adheres to the standard of having three bedrooms and two living rooms, noticeably more spacious than external clinics.
Luokuke had already received the message, gripping the wheelchair at the elevator entrance waiting for him.
"Are you... completely recovered?" Looking at Cheng Ye’s rosy face and upright posture, Luokuke’s tone couldn’t hide his envy.
"Not bad, about almost there." Cheng Ye smiled, pushing the wheelchair back to Room 6002.
The room was littered with sunflower seed shells, the sound of audiobooks was playing from the speakers, and the TV was showing old movies.
"Never thought you have this hobby?"
"Not exactly a hobby, just that most of my life is considered wasted now, so I have to find something to pass the time." Luokuke shook his head with a bitter smile, "Even if these legs are replaced with prosthetics, I won’t be able to do field duty tasks anymore; most likely, I’ll be retiring at the inspection station."
"Then in the future, there’ll be an extraordinary bigwig stationed at the inspection station, we’ll be secure!"
Cheng Ye deliberately joked in a light-hearted tone to lighten his mood.
Unexpectedly, Luokuke seemed to have come to terms; he wasn’t as despondent as imagined, "I already have a feeling, I’ll follow the path of breaking through the Unity of Heaven and Man, gathering beliefs."
He paused, then changed the topic, "Besides, I want to discuss something with you; I wonder if you’re willing."
The control over power was indeed recovering; the apple in his hand danced as he quickly peeled it.
Crunch.
He took a bite of the apple, then picked up another to peel for Luokuke, only nodding after Luokuke took the apple:
"Go ahead, what is it?"
"You’ll definitely need to go on field duty frequently later; even if you return, staying at the inspection station for duty is a waste of time. The Dapo Town inspection station needs two people to rotate for duty; instead of you finding someone else, why not let me take the role? Although I lost my legs, I can still handle duty sitting there." Luokuke spoke sincerely.
Cheng Ye was slightly stunned, looking at his genuine expression, and asked back, "Are you serious? This is like defecting!"
"Not a defection, I originally belong to Station Chief Ding, it was Station Chief Ding who cultivated and discovered me."
Luokuke chuckled, "This time going to Dapo Town was actually arranged by Station Chief Ding to assist in elevating you; didn’t expect you’d accomplish it so well by yourself, putting all those plans to waste."
"What about Garcia?"
"The plan was originally to remove the only trouble before you got a position, but unfortunately, there was an accident." Luokuke openly admitted.
"Why is Old Ding so good to me?" Cheng Ye took a big bite of the apple, his tone holding no emotion.
"Haha, this question, you’ll have to find the answer yourself as a ’Cheng Family’ member."
Luokuke also took a bite of the apple, accentuating the words Cheng Family with obvious implications.
"Alright, when you’re discharged, I’ll lead the team in Dapo Town to welcome Inspector Luo for an inspection."
There was still not much expression on Cheng Ye’s face; he casually tossed the apple core, which landed accurately in the trash bin, "Just right, I originally wanted to find a First-Phase Inspector partner, with you here, I’m more at ease."
"No need for a First-Phase, I’m good as a Third-Phase!"
Luokuke immediately nodded, his heart that had been hanging finally relaxed.
After much consideration, currently, the only way to connect with Cheng Ye is to settle in Dapo Town inspection station.
Even if outsiders see it as a banishment, so what?
Hidden dragon, waiting for the right moment to act.
Whether it’s the power Cheng Ye showed when retrieving Immortal Objects, or the wisdom exhibited in the process, Luokuke could discern, as long as Cheng Ye survives, no one among peers could contend with him for the future role of Station Chief.
Cheng Ye got up and grabbed the broom by the wall, starting to clean up the sunflower seed shells littering the floor.
After sweeping the trash into the dustpan, he suddenly spoke up: "Inspector Luo, after Dapo Town is built, I hope you’ll also settle your family there, okay?"
Luokuke’s heart was startled; he nearly answered without hesitating: "No problem, from now on, I, Luokuke, am a person of Dapo Town; home is where the heart is!"
"Very good!"
