"It's really irritating." Ran Xiyu frowned.
Jiang Liushi seldom saw Ran Xiyu becoming angry. This time, Ran Xiyu was extremely displeased with Zhang Haojing, who had kicked Jiang Xiaochu and her parents out and stolen their food. Ran Xiyu had to go through tough battles and put her life on the line to obtain those resources. However, those resources had been snatched by a disgusting person! Whenever Ran Xiyu thought about that, she felt sick and disgusted.
"It's a pity that we can't enter the hospital," said Ran Xiyu in a sad tone.
She knew that Zhang Haojing had dared to be so unscrupulous because he was safe in the hospital. Of course, Shi Ying Squad couldn't rush in that hospital directly.
Jiang Liushi needed to stay in the Safety Zone to collect the needed materials. Naturally, they needed to take General Zhang into consideration as the latter had been helping them.
"Forget it..." Ran Xiyu sighed.
Jiang Liushi grabbed her and said, "As long as we're not discovered, we can do it, right?"
We can do it, as long as we won't be discovered, right?"
"Ah?" Ran Xiyu was stunned, but Jiang Liushi just smiled.
Actually, only Zhang Haojing was under the impression that they couldn't enter. Jiang Liushi had many ways to enter if he wanted.
Night fell…
Some buildings in the Jiangning Safety Zone were still lit, but most areas had been hidden in the night; they were like dark shadows.
Jiangning Hospital was one of the newly established hospitals in the Jiangning area. As a result, its buildings and facilities were all new. At the gates were soldiers standing guard, while a group of soldiers was patrolling back and forth. Next to the hospital was also a military camp. If one were to look from far away, they could sense a tinge of solemnity.
In a dark alley next to the hospital was Jiang Liushi's minibus. There were no sources of light in the vicinity, which enabled the minibus to move around stealthily. They were completely invisible from the outside.
The partition between the cab and the compartment had been lowered to completely enclose the light in the compartment. Ying was sitting on the driver's seat silently and looking through the windshield with her bright eyes. Her mind was taking in all the scenes which the minibus' camera was recording from outside. She was monitoring the area around them.
Jiang Liushi, Jiang Zhuying, Ran Xiyu, Li Yuxin, and Ling were sitting around the sofa. Suddenly, Jiang Liushi looked out through the window and then he said, "It's time. Xiyu, you can begin."
"Okay." Ran Xiyu nodded, and then her vision penetrated Jiang Liushi's minibus. Ran Xiyu's gray eyes were like the Milky Way, which could make people get addicted. Her spiritual vision had been extended the hospital, bypassing the patrolling soldiers and quickly spreading towards the hospital buildings. As if it was an invisible arrow, it quickly shot through the hospital's gate.
"I sensed another mental consciousness," said Ran Xiyu suddenly.
"Do not force yourself," said Jiang Liushi.
In Ran Xiyu's spiritual vision, an invisible force was scanning the whole hospital. The force was passing through every patient and doctor, but none of them could sense it.
Ran Xiyu paused briefly and said, "It doesn't matter."
Her spiritual vision was like a flexible cat, passing through the middle of the force, light and incomparable. In the hospital, the psychic paranormal that was responsible for the hospital's protection was scanning ceaselessly. However, he was unable to detect Ran Xiyu's presence. Ran Xiyu's spirit was highly concentrated, shrinking into a beam, and passing through the narrowest gap.
"He can't find me," said Ran Xiyu. She looked very confident.
Although Ran Xiyu looked very weak, she had a quite strong psychic power. During the simple conversation, Ran Xiyu had already locked on the psychic paranormal's location. He was also in a ward, and in another ward next to it, Ran Xiyu found a group of spiritual lights.
"Brother Jiang, I found Zhang Haojing," said Ran Xiyu coldly.
"Let's go." Jiang Liushi immediately stood up.
As the door opened, Jiang Liushi, Jiang Zhuying, and Ling quickly walked out of his minibus. Then, they jumped high directly over the wall in front of them.
In the blink of an eye, a new scene appeared in their minds through Ran Xiyu's shared vision. That scene was from Zhang Haojing's room, but its background was clear gray. They could see many bright lights in it and how far apart they were.
"Uh? What's that blue light?" asked Jiang Zhuying. There were only three blue lights. Whenever Jiang Zhuying moved, one of that blue lights would simultaneously move.
"I used this way to distinguish you. I can also change your shape," explained Ran Xiyu. As she said that, the three blue lights transformed into three peach-heart-shaped lights.
"Wow, I like this," said Jiang Zhuying said in excitement.
Bluntly speaking, the shared spiritual vision was also the mental energy that Ran Xiyu was using to project those scenes to their minds. That's the reason she could change its shape. She only needed to spend a little energy. As they didn't need to hunt mutant beasts or zombies today, Ran Xiyu could use this for fun.
"Brother, you are a beating heart," said Jiang Zhuying.
"Be quiet," responded Jiang Liushi.
They used various covers and blind spots to hide from the patrolling team. After some time, they entered the hospital building through a window.
"I will wrap up the psychic paranormal's strength and give him some false illusions. You don't need to care about them at all. Go straight ahead," said Ran Xiyu.
"Illusions? Do you want to inject your mental power in his?" asked Jiang Liushi in surprise as Ran Xiyu had never done that before.
"Well, I want to give it a try. As long as I continue controlling my power precisely, it will be okay," said Ran Xiyu.
While sitting on the sofa of Jiang Liushi's minibus, Ran Xiyu took a deep breath, and her eyes blinked. Everyone was evolving, even monster. Ran Xiyu also wanted to accomplish more things with her own strength.
"Trust me," said Ran Xiyu.
"Good." Jiang Liushi no longer hesitated: "Let's go."
There were not many people walking around the corridor at night. The wards in the hospital were also not very crowded. The injured soldiers were basically living in the ward. On the fifth floor of the inpatient department, two nurses were sitting at the nurse station. Suddenly one of the little nurses felt a shadow flashing in front of them. She looked up and then around, but there was nothing in the corridor.
"Uh," The nurse blinked and lowered her head again to work.
In a ward on the fifth floor, Zhang Haojing was lying on the bed, and his woman was sitting beside the bed. The woman was taking out the insulated lunch box.
"Have you kicked them out?" asked Zhang Haojing.
"Don't worry. I locked them out and threw their tattered clothes at the door directly. They still wanted to come in and take their luggage, but I didn't allow them. Didn't you tell me that you didn't want to meet them again?" said the woman and smiled.
"Yes, you are right. No matter who they are, as long as they're acquainted with Jiang Liushi, I don't want anything to do with them," said Zhang Haojing coldly.
"I lost my leg because of him!" Zhang Haojing looked at the blanket sadly. He couldn't help but cry. Then, he slammed the bed, causing it to tremble.
The woman was shocked. After Zhang Haojing came back, he was further bandaged, but his missing leg could not be healed.
"But he won't fare any better! Initially, I just wanted Ran Xiyu to leave him and come with me… It's all his fault!" growled Zhang Haojing.
"Is Jiang Liushi's minibus indeed powerful? Does that man really care about his minibus? What about General Zhang?" asked the woman worriedly. Naturally, she also hoped that Ran Xiyu and Jiang Liushi would get in trouble, but she was also worried about the aftermath of snatching Jiang Xiaochu's belongings.
"Yeah, his minibus is extremely powerful, so that man is interested in it. As for General Zhang, he is responsible for the Safety Zone's protection and interests, so he must take the whole situation into consideration. Even if he wants to protect Jiang Liushi, he can't let Jiang Liushi do whatever he wants. Not to mention that there are also many Commanders and Military Commissioners to oppose him!" said Zhang Haojing coldly.
"Moreover, if they were not interested in Jiang Liushi, how could they have sent people to protect me?" added Zhang Haojing.
The psychic paranormal was also a patient, but he was specially transferred next to Zhang Haojing's room. He was responsible for protecting the whole hospital by using his spiritual power.
In fact, Zhang Haojing was still very afraid of Jiang Liushi. When he decided to betray Jiang Liushi, he proposed the condition that he should be protected. Thus, he was sent to Jiangning Hospital, which was protected 24/7. There were even two people in his room, guarding it the whole time. Actually, 'that man' felt it was strange as to why Zhang Haojing was so afraid of Jiang Liushi.
After being protected, Zhang Haojing became calm. He didn't believe Jiang Liushi could kill him in such an environment.
Zhang Haojing looked at the lunch box that the woman took out and asked, "Stewed mutant meat and vegetables?"
"It's really delicious. If we let Jiang Xiaochu keep such delicacies, it would be a huge waste. I was eager to bring the food here as I hadn't the chance to taste it," said the woman and opened the lunch box.
Suddenly, the delicious smell filled the whole room. Zhang Haojing smiled but didn't say anything. Unexpectedly, he heard someone knocking at the door.
