57: Won't something happen if a man and a woman are alone together?

Chapter 57: Purchasing Super Hearing

Lei Zhen was stunned; not a single one of these hospital leaders had a clean record.

This reminded him of the online report: "20 Million in Kickbacks from 30 Million Medical Equipment."

Indeed, all crows under heaven are equally black!

Actually, Lei Zhen wasn't concerned with the trivial matters of corruption and bribery. What truly caught his attention was the last person, Zhang Bo, because his head was topped with over eight hundred points of Eye of Sin.

Over eight hundred points! Wang Qingshan, who had killed three people earlier, only had 436 points of Eye of Sin. This person actually had double that?

How many people must he have harmed?

"Officer Lei, our hospital leaders heard that you just apprehended two wanted criminals and were injured in the process, so they specifically came to see you."

Dean Sun's face was full of kindness: "On behalf of our Sixth Hospital, I express our highest respect for your heroic actions."

"Dean Sun, you're too kind. Serving the people is what we should all do," Lei Zhen said.

Only then did he notice someone filming behind them. Looking at the camera's logo, it even had Jiangcheng TV printed on it.

No wonder all these department heads came to visit; it was all for show.

Lei Zhen politely received this group of uninvited guests and finally accepted an exclusive interview with the reporter.

The interview took over half an hour before everyone gradually left. Lei Zhen, like a gentleman, escorted the female reporter to the door.

Lei Zhen returned to the sofa and began to ponder, head bowed.

Over eight hundred points of Eye of Sin. This guy must have harmed countless people. This time, you ran right into me, so consider yourself unlucky!

He looked at Gu Qingcheng and suddenly said, "Qingcheng, do you want to earn a merit?"

Gu Qingcheng was startled: "Earn a merit? What kind of merit?"

"A major merit!" Lei Zhen smiled: "Look at the previous two cases. Although you were involved in both, due to insufficient participation, all the credit went to me. Don't you want to get a third-class merit on your own?"

"Me, a third-class merit?" Gu Qingcheng laughed: "Are you kidding? I don't have your luck, getting hijacked by a wanted criminal just buying a pack of cigarettes."

"You'd be surprised, luck has already arrived," Lei Zhen said with a mysterious smile.

"What do you mean?" Gu Qingcheng didn't understand.

Lei Zhen patted the adjacent sofa directly: "Come here, I'll tell you quietly."

Gu Qingcheng sat next to Lei Zhen, half-believing, half-doubting. Lei Zhen leaned his mouth close to her ear: "Someone in this hospital is illegally trafficking organs."

"Illegal organ trafficking?" Gu Qingcheng was instantly dumbfounded: "How did you find out?"

"That's a long story," Lei Zhen said: "Anyway, I came to the hospital specifically to investigate, and through my unremitting efforts..."

"Wait a minute," Gu Qingcheng interrupted: "Why do I feel like your previous sentence was a bit strange?"

"Was it?... Oh, that's not the point. The point is, I found the suspect."

"Really or fake?" Gu Qingcheng still didn't believe him.

"Would I lie to you?" Lei Zhen smiled mysteriously: "In short, if you join, and this case is solved, it's at least a third-class merit for starters."

Gu Qingcheng hesitated. If she could really earn a third-class merit, she could finish her internship early and become a full-fledged police officer.

And for a police officer, the value of a third-class merit goes without saying.

"Don't try to fool me," Gu Qingcheng was still half-believing, half-doubting.

"Do you think anyone would dare to fool their future wife?" Lei Zhen chuckled.

"Just talk, don't take advantage of me," Gu Qingcheng pouted.

Just like that, Gu Qingcheng reluctantly agreed to investigate the case with Lei Zhen.

Gu Qingcheng didn't go home after work and soon received a call from her mother, Luo Qin.

"I'm at the hospital taking care of Lei Zhen, so I won't be coming home tonight."

After hanging up, Luo Qin immediately called Gu Wenhai: "Your daughter is at the hospital every day with an Auxiliary Police Officer? Nothing's going to happen, right?"

"He got injured saving her, isn't it normal for her to accompany him for a few days?" Gu Wenhai replied from the phone.

"A single man and a single woman, it wouldn't sound good if rumors spread," Luo Qin, as the child's mother, naturally viewed the issue from a different perspective than Gu Wenhai.

Gu Wenhai knew his wife looked down on Lei Zhen, so he could only humor her for now.

"It's fine, you know our daughter, don't you? She's very picky, she wouldn't possibly fall for a small Auxiliary Police Officer from a ruffian background. Don't overthink it."

Luo Qin frowned: "It's not that I'm worried. Our daughter is so beautiful, she should find someone who is a good match for our family. Do you still remember my college classmate whose husband was doing business in the United States?"

"You mean the one surnamed Gong?"

"That's her," Luo Qin said: "I just got a call from her saying their family is preparing to move back and settle down.

I told you last time, my classmate has a son, one year older than Qingcheng, and he graduated from a prestigious university. Apparently, he's currently a manager at some financial company, with an annual salary of over a million!"

Gu Wenhai had no interest in this overseas returnee now: "What, planning to sell your daughter?"

"What are you saying? Yesterday I met with my classmate and showed her Qingcheng's photo. She liked her at first sight, so we set a time to take Qingcheng out for a meal."

Gu Wenhai understood, this was a setup for his daughter to go on a blind date.

Blind dates were fine, but he hated dining with businessmen the most in his life, and now he looked down on all overseas returnees, so he immediately refused: "No, no, I'm so busy with work. If you want to go, you go by yourself."

"You dare not? You must go!" Luo Qin almost used a commanding tone, then hung up the phone.

Back to Lei Zhen, the rewards he received for apprehending the wanted criminal had also arrived.

Since Han Wenxuan's capture had nothing to do with Lei Zhen, he didn't get his Eye of Sin points. He only received 332 points from Han Qiaoyun and a reward of 300,000.

Adding what he had left before, Lei Zhen now had 1333 points.

So Lei Zhen purchased the new skill [Super Hearing].

He needed to gather a lot of information in the hospital, and Super Hearing would be perfect for eavesdropping.

So Lei Zhen decisively placed the order.

This time, no image appeared before his eyes, but a huge ringing in his ears.

Next, Lei Zhen's ears were filled with all sorts of noisy sounds, like a bustling market in his head.

Lei Zhen specifically walked out of the ward so his ears could receive more information.

As soon as he stepped out, a tide of more fragmented sounds rushed in.

The rustling sound of bedsheets as an old man turned over in the ward diagonally opposite, the 'click' of a pharmacist opening a medicine box downstairs, he even heard the 'clink' of surgical forceps gently hitting a tray.

His hearing had improved at least a hundredfold, if not more!

Lei Zhen opened the Host's Home and saw his profile updated again.

Name: Lei Zhen

Age: 22

Height: 180

Weight: 73 kg

Occupation: Auxiliary Police Officer

Special Skills: Eye of Sin, Mastery of Fighting Techniques [Beginner], Dogs Sense of Smell, Super Memory, Super Hearing

Money: 1,384,301

Eye of Sin Points: 933

After reading the profile, Lei Zhen was surprised. How did he gain weight after staying in the hospital for a few days!

At this point, only the [Code Tracing Technique] was left in the Special Skills Mall. Although Lei Zhen currently had enough points, he decided to wait a bit longer.

Additionally, Super Hearing was also an active skill and consumed stamina.

Lei Zhen's Super Hearing was still active. Just as he was about to turn it off, he suddenly heard Gu Qingcheng's voice.

She was in the restroom, talking to her mother.

"I'm busy, how do I have time for a blind date!"

"Don't give me excuses. It's not easy for them to come back, and I've already set the time. What's wrong with meeting? You're 24, what's with not dating? Do you have to become a 'leftover woman' to be happy?"

"I told you, I don't have time!"

"No, you must go. And I've already taken a liking to this young man."

"If you like him so much, you go on the blind date with him."
