"Let me... clarify something for you? You haven't broken up with that mine owner's daughter yet!"
"Delete the posts, and completely wipe Norma's hard drive," Gu Ran said expressionlessly. "Can you do that?"
"That might be a bit difficult. You know I only have 'F' level clearance..."
"Why sleep so much before death, when you'll sleep forever after?" Gu Ran laughed. "So, you shouldn't do difficult things? Dead people don't have to do anything..."
As he spoke, he brought the blade closer to Fingel's neck.
"Okay, okay, I'll delete it right away, I'll delete it immediately, I'll delete it completely!" Fingel shouted, quickly making the promise.
"Finger, what are you making such a racket so early in the morning!" Lu Mingfei, who was sleeping on the other bed, complained, rubbing his sleepy eyes.
When he opened his eyes, Gu Ran had already left, leaving only a bewildered Fingel. He quickly picked up his notebook and began deleting posts.
Lu Mingfei played games all day last night and is now sleepy. After the dormitory quieted down, he went back to bed for a nap.
Gu Ran's phone has been ringing non-stop for the past two days.
Because of Fingel's news posts, he's been receiving dating messages from girls these days.
Compared to Lu Mingfei's sensational S-class status, the handsome and refined Gu Ran is clearly more popular with girls.
Even without mentioning the Lionheart Society, his resume alone is enough to attract girls.
However, he had marked himself as not single on the Night Watchers forum a long time ago, so no girls took the initiative to flirt with him.
But as soon as Fingel's news broke, the girls' hearts began to flutter again. The first-year students were still somewhat reserved, but the older girls, especially the second-year students, sent quite a few explicit text messages.
Some of the more adventurous female students from Europe and America had always hoped to have a passionate night with Gu Ran, even wearing black stockings and swaying in front of him in the dead of winter.
It must be said that people of mixed race are incredibly energetic, and some Western countries are truly open-minded...
If this were in China, a group activity would definitely result in being locked up in a dark room.
Gu Ran was too lazy to deal with these senior female students, so she had no choice but to hide in the Norton Building and refuse visitors.
Lee Eun-sook was responsible for keeping him away from the unwanted attention from outside.
Several days later, these energetic senior girls realized that Gu Ran, like Chu Zihang, was abstinent, so they stopped trying to seduce him.
They were all very disappointed that they hadn't succeeded in collecting the stamps.
During his time at Kassel College, Gu Ran's daily routine consisted of meditation, exercise, and studying, with occasional moments of daydreaming and thinking about his girlfriend.
After finishing his morning classes today, Professor Schneider kept him behind and assigned him a task.
My partner is Chu Zihang.
“I felt it wasn’t good to always send Chu Zihang on missions alone, but there was really no one else who could partner with him, so I thought of you,” Schneider continued in a hoarse voice. “Can you accept that?”
“Sure, I happen to be free recently.” Gu Ran accepted the task.
There hasn't been any progress in the investigation of the Zhang family in Nanyang recently. He also doesn't have anything else to do at school, so going out on a mission to relax is a good idea.
However, after actually seeing the mission details, he regretted it somewhat...
*……*……*
New York, Brooklyn.
This is the most populous borough of New York City, located on the southeastern edge of Manhattan Island.
A few days ago, a dangerous individual with dragon blood murdered a pregnant woman about to give birth in the hospital ward and removed the fetus. The Executive Department suspects it was for evil alchemical purposes.
In order to find this dangerous individual, Gu Ran and Chu Zihang's team must infiltrate the hospital, search for the criminal's trail, and eliminate him.
"Speaking of which, shouldn't this kind of task be assigned to a girl?" Gu Ran said as she helped Chu Zihang, who was heavily pregnant, with the hospital admission procedures.
Chu Zihang didn't speak. He wore a long black wig, his Adam's apple was wrapped in a black silk scarf with a voice changer inside, and he was also made up, making him look like a strong and beautiful young woman.
As for what's inside the belly, it's also an implant, but the equipment department makes them incredibly realistic—a silicone, temperature-controlled simulated pregnant belly.
Gu Ran thought to himself, "Those lunatics in the Equipment Department have this kind of technology; it's a real waste that they don't go to Fiji to make cups."
Perhaps they made many for their own use in private.
Gu Ran plays Chu Zihang's husband; they are portraying a Chinese couple.
As for why Chu Zihang was dressed as a pregnant woman, it's because he lost a game of rock-paper-scissors.
If Gu Ran loses, he will have his shadow clone play the pregnant woman; his real body won't do that.
Chapter 223 Medical Disputes in America
Generally speaking, pregnant women should rest at home and then go to the hospital to give birth when their due date arrives.
However, the executive department arranged some kind of medical record for Chu Zihang that allowed him to be admitted directly to the maternity ward and stay for as many days as he wanted.
"Alright, darling, you can stay here. I have to go to work. I'll come see you again tonight," Gu Ran said, seemingly gently.
He helped Chu Zihang lie down on the hospital bed.
Chu Zihang remained expressionless. He didn't mind male-male contact, after all, basketball involves physical contact.
He simply didn't know what to say in this situation, so he remained silent, hoping to avoid making mistakes.
Gu Ran helped him lie down and then left.
Of course, it wasn't about leaving the hospital, but about going elsewhere to look for clues.
He recalled that the perpetrator in this case was an ambulance driver.
So I tried to find the scheduling information directly and collect evidence.
*……*……*
After Gu Ran left, Chu Zihang lay in the hospital bed.
The ward has three beds: besides Chu Zihang, there is a white person and an Asian person.
The white man also had a large belly and looked to be almost forty years old, but he still retained his charm.
Seeing that Gu Ran left immediately after settling in, she said to Chu Zihang with some dissatisfaction, "Does your husband not love you anymore? He just left like that without even kissing you."
In the eyes of Westerners, kissing is a daily interaction that expresses intimacy. If a couple doesn't even kiss or hug, then their relationship must be strained.
Chu Zihang didn't know how to explain, so he finally used a voice changer to say, "He is not the child's father."
The white pregnant woman's eyes widened, as if she had just stumbled upon an unbelievable bombshell: "Wow! God, he's so amazing! You two must be truly in love!"
Another pregnant woman of Asian descent, who appeared to be Chinese, overheard the conversation but didn't say a word; she just felt sorry for Gu Ran.
I've unexpectedly become a father!
Chu Zihang had no idea how much misunderstanding his words had caused Gu Ran.
In the hospital's duty room, Gu Ran, using the Ninja Technique: Camouflage Concealment, easily infiltrated, and none of the surveillance cameras could capture his figure.
Because he is currently in a transparent state.
He found a shift schedule and obtained information on six ambulance drivers.
He found a place where no one could see him, took pictures of this information, and submitted them to Norma for investigation.
Soon, feedback came from Norman that two drivers were the most suspicious, one working the night shift and the other the day shift.
Perfect, one for Chu Zihang and one for myself.
After discussing it, Gu Ran was to be the driver during the day, while Chu Zihang was to be the driver at night.
Chu Zihang rarely moved around in the hospital. Apart from eating and going to the toilet, he spent most of his time lying in bed thinking.
Americans value privacy and rarely engage in casual conversation. Seeing that Chu Zihang didn't want to chat, the two pregnant women in the same ward didn't ask any more questions.
The white pregnant woman's husband comes twice a day. He is a middle-aged man in his forties, who looks like a civil servant and is very calm.
She also has a ten-year-old son and is currently pregnant with her second child.
The pregnant Chinese woman had someone come to her every morning and noon; it seemed to be her mother, who brought her stewed soup every day.
Gu Ran came every night to prepare for his acting role, and they always brought him stewed soup. He bought the soup from Chinatown, and occasionally they would pack some Cantonese and Sichuan dishes for him.
Chu Zihang wasn't picky about food; he would eat whatever Gu Ran gave him.
One day, Gu Ran brought a bag of peaches to Chu Zihang, but was scolded by the pregnant Chinese mother.
"How can you give peaches to a pregnant woman? What if the baby grows moldy? What if the baby 'escapes'? You young people these days really have no sense of propriety at all..."
The elderly woman was speaking in Chinese, lecturing a younger person in a lecturing tone.
Gu Ran couldn't argue, so she could only say, "Ah, yes, yes, yes..."
Then he still fed the peeled peach into Chu Zihang's mouth.
Chu Zihang ate without saying a word.
"Come on, wife, have another plum..." Gu Ran fed her senior brother another green plum.
The old lady was about to launch into another lecture: "How can you eat plums? What if the child 'dies'?"
At this moment, the Chinese pregnant woman standing nearby seemed to understand everything.
She tugged at her mother and said, "Mom, stop talking. The baby in my belly isn't his. He'd be happy if the baby ran away or didn't exist!"
"Oh..." The old woman looked at Gu Ran meaningfully, "You young man are really tolerant and vicious..."
Gu Ran looked completely bewildered as she gazed at Chu Zihang.
Chu Zihang ate in silence, not wanting to say a word.
Suddenly, a gunshot rang out from the hospital!
In the free United States, gunfights happen every day. Although everyone is used to the sound of gunfire, hearing gunshots in the obstetrics and gynecology ward still gave the pregnant women a big fright.
Gu Ran and Chu Zihang exchanged a glance.
"I'll go take a look," Gu Ran said. "You all stay here and don't move around."
He walked to the door, leaned against it, and opened his eyes wide to observe outside.
The elderly woman wanted to join in the fun, but her daughter pulled her back, saying, "Mom, those are real guns, don't get involved."
"What's there to be afraid of? I fired a gun when I was a kid, and I even participated in the training of the women's militia!" The old woman raised her thick arms to show off her muscles.
Gu Ran went out, locked the old woman inside the room, and then went to check on her alone.
