Report

'This is a hospital! '

Zhang Tie wanted to sit up from the bed. However, the moment he supported himself with his hands, the pain from his left shoulder and lower abdomen caused him to grin. Not until then did Zhang Tie remember that he had been hit by two arrows before he fell down at school.

'Motherf * cker! 'Zhang Tie swore inside as he grimaced.

The wound on his lower abdomen didn't hurt much, but the part on his left shoulder seemed to hurt more.

Opening the quilt, Zhang Tie thought, 'F * ck, I've just removed the gauze. I don't need to be a mummy anymore. Why do I have to wrap it up again? Moreover, it's getting thicker and thicker. Is this the sequela of the nickname' mummy '?'

It was sunny outside the room. Birds were singing and flowers were fragrant. Zhang Tie got off the bed and walked to the window. Opening it, he watched the scenery outside and took in a deep breath.

Outside the room was a garden of the hospital. The scenery was nice. Standing in the room, Zhang Tie immediately guessed where he was from the outlines of the buildings outside the garden — — Saint Brilliant Hospital of Blackhot City.

Zhang Tie had not imagined that he could live in the best hospital in Blackhot City one day. It seemed that it was even a senior intensive care ward.

Zhang Tie revealed a self-deprecating smile. 'The treatment of being a military officer of the Norman Empire is really good.'

Seeing the sunshine outside the window, Zhang Tie, who was only wrapped in gauze and bandages, stretched out one hand and touched the warm sunshine. He then closed his eyes and enjoyed it.

Not until then did Zhang Tie feel the warmth of the sunshine outside the window seemed to have gotten rid of the effect of the terrifying poison.

That feeling was very terrifying. Stiff. Cold. His blood and muscles all over seemed to be frozen by a layer of ice in a split second. From his toes to his tongue, he felt that his whole body didn't belong to him anymore. His physical body seemed to have disappeared and turned into ashes, never to bring him any feeling anymore.

At that time, Zhang Tie thought that he would definitely die. Such a powerful poison was even more effective than those senior rat poisons in Donder's grocery store. It was many times more effective than those senior rat poisons in Donder's grocery store. At that time, it might have taken less than five seconds for him to lose consciousness and fall down. The effect of the poison had already started to take effect.

Thinking of that feeling, Zhang Tie still had a lingering fear.

...

Before Zhang Tie could bask in the sunlight for two minutes, the door of the room was opened. A nurse pushed open the door and walked in with a tray. The nurse seemed to be here to change the dressing for Zhang Tie. When she entered the door and saw that Zhang Tie had already woken up, she couldn't help but exclaim, "Ah...".

As soon as the nurse called out, four soldiers in dark red military uniforms rushed in.

"Sir, you're awake?" a soldier asked with widened eyes.

"Did I sleep long? What's the date today? "Zhang Tie asked.

"Today is August 11th. You've been unconscious for two days!"



Only ten minutes later, Colonel Leibniz and the other officers of the Iron-Blood Camp had received the news. Everybody came to the hospital and squeezed into Zhang Tie's room.

Seeing that Zhang Tie had woken up in one piece, everyone let out a sigh of relief.

At this moment, Zhang Tie had already known that the poison was called Blue Frost. He also knew what had happened in Blackhot City in the past couple of days.

The entire Iron-Blood Camp was dispatched to surround the castle of Gregory family because of Zhang Tie's arrest. They wanted to avenge him, which made Zhang Tie very moved.

A steward and a captain of guards of Gregory family in Blackhot City had been arrested. One of them was responsible for looking after the weapons warehouse of Gregory family, while the other was like Glaze's dad. In this world, when the rich got into trouble, the poor would suffer. It was the same no matter where they were.

The cause of this event was Glaze. At this moment, Zhang Tie was deeply reflecting on his naivety in dealing with Glaze's case. Evidence was only needed by the weak. It was used to comfort himself and seek sympathy and support. Actually, it was useless.

What evidence did the Norman Empire need to annex Blackhot City? What evidence did a lion need to eat a rabbit? What evidence did a courageous person need to settle a debt of gratitude and revenge? What evidence did big figures need to decide the life and death of tens of thousands of people? Zhang Tie's long-held mindset of being a weak group had almost caused him to be killed by this event. Encountering such an event... What would a real powerhouse do? The moment he returned to Blackhot City, he would definitely find an excuse to kill Glaze's dad and eliminate this threat in the bud. How could he give such a person a chance to plot against him?

Childish, childish, too childish! He had figured this out. Zhang Tie became much more open-minded at once. At the same time, his temperament also improved and became more mature.

Another advantage of this event was that after this event, everybody was convinced that Zhang Tie was struck by a lightning bolt previously even though some people still doubted that Zhang Tie was struck by a lightning bolt previously. After being poisoned by the blue frost, everybody could only watch Zhang Tie lying on the bed without any external help. Relying on his body's instincts, he was actually able to forcefully resist the blue frost poison. If this were to spread out, it would simply be shocking. If not for the mysterious changes that happened to his body due to the lightning strike, it would have been impossible for him to survive. It made his acquired Lightning Stroke Savant Syndrome extremely strange, and it opened up the mysterious potential of his body. How did he manage to keep his life?

After chatting with Zhang Tie for a while, the first batch of people started to be interested in the lightning bolt which struck Zhang Tie, including the time, place, size of the lightning bolt, Zhang Tie's physical condition at that time, which part of Zhang Tie's body was struck by the lightning bolt. Many people were inquiring about these weird questions carefully. Even Colonel Leibniz became interested in it.

Of course, Zhang Tie, who had long been prepared for this, gave a flawless answer. If someone wanted to verify it, they could definitely find the evidence of being struck by the lightning bolt beside a big tree on the hillside that Zhang Tie had mentioned. Unless someone could trace back time, nobody could find the loopholes in Zhang Tie's lies.

...

"Take a good rest during this period. The doctor said that it would take you one month to recover. I will give you one month off. During this period, you don't need to go back to the military camp. You can go back after you recover!" Colonel Leibniz directly gave Zhang Tie a long holiday. Colonel Leibniz had been in a good mood these days. After successfully solving this problem, the sincerity of the Gregory family made him smile at night. Through this event, Colonel Leibniz found that Zhang Tie was simply his lucky messenger. He appreciated Zhang Tie even more. Not only in Nordinburg, but also in Blackhot City, Zhang Tie would also bring him great luck.

Colonel Leibniz felt that his decision to enlist Zhang Tie in the army was very wise.

Seeing Zhang Tie wake up, Colonel Leibniz finally let go of the guards. After the officers of No. 34 Division left, those who had been waiting in the hospital and were forbidden to see Zhang Tie poured into the room.

In the past two days, all of them had been waiting in the hospital for Zhang Tie's news. Zhang Tie saw Leit, Doug, his elder brother, Beverly, and Wood. All of them looked a bit haggard. It seemed that they hadn't had a good rest these days, especially his elder brother. Although he tried his best to be spirited, Zhang Tie could see his fatigue at the first glance. This fatigue didn't come from his body, but from his spirit.

Seeing his elder brother whose eyes had turned red, Zhang Tie immediately asked, "Do dad and mom know what happened to me?"

What Zhang Tie was worried about the most was that his parents would be very worried about him. "At the beginning, I didn't dare to tell them.

I told them that after the duel, you spared that man's life and went back to the military camp. Because of the large number of people, your school was in chaos, but you didn't even lose a hair. Later on, I learned that you had a chance to recover, so I didn't dare to tell them about it. Therefore, they still don't know about it. However, dad seemed to have heard some uncertain rumors and mentioned you to me last night. Mom also seemed to be suspicious, but I tricked her into telling me about it. If it's convenient for you, you'd better go home and meet mom. Even if you don't enter the house, just greet mom outside the door and let her have a look at you! "

Hearing that his elder brother could hide the news of his accident from their parents for two days, Zhang Tie finally let out a sigh. Not many people had witnessed the assassination at school. In a very short period of time, the school had been in a mess. Therefore, there were various rumors. Especially when it was spread outside the school, as it was related to the Gregory family, the rumors became even more complicated. Thanks to his elder brother's intentional concealment, Zhang Tie's parents didn't have to worry about him. This was a great fortune in misfortune.

… …

No matter what, Zhang Tie had a lot of time to rest. After chatting with Leit and Wood and comforting them, he told them to go home and have a good rest. By the way, he went to inform the other brothers of the Hit-Plane Brotherhood that he was fine. After that, Zhang Tie's eyes fell on Alice, who had been staring at him silently since she entered the ward.

At this moment, the others all walked out of the ward. Seeing Alice's red and swollen eyes, Zhang Tie smiled and made a gesture of flexing his muscles with his right hand.

Alice's tears immediately flowed down. She walked over and gently hugged Zhang Tie as if she was afraid of hurting him. For two whole minutes, she kept crying on Zhang Tie's chest without saying a word. Zhang Tie was scared and hurriedly wiped her tears. "I'm sorry. Did I scare you that day? I know it's not good to kill people in front of you. That scene was indeed a bit bloody … "

Seeing that this man was still worried about whether the scene that day had scared her, Alice just shook her head, and tears burst out of her eyes.

"Then why are you crying?" Zhang Tie kissed away the tears on Alice's face. "You must have not slept well these two days!"

"They all said that you reacted at that time. If you had chosen to dodge at that time, the two crossbow bolts wouldn't have hit you at all. Because we were right in front of you, you chose to let us live and push us away while you used your body as a shield to face the incoming crossbow bolts. Is that right?" Holding Zhang Tie's face with both hands, Alice's beautiful eyes were filled with deep affection. "Why were you so silly?"

Zhang Tie smirked, not knowing what to say. At that time, it was just his instinctive reaction. He didn't think too much about it. Zhang Tie only felt that it was unreasonable to let Alice and the others face the danger when he was still standing. Especially now, after knowing that the bolts were quenched with blue frost, Zhang Tie felt lucky that the two bolts were shot at him...

"To be honest, I only feel happy now. Thankfully, the two bolts were shot at me! If the bolts were shot at you, I don't even know how to face them. I can't imagine what I would do if you lie here and never wake up again because of me. I might be driven crazy by this matter … "

At this moment, there was no need to say anything more.

Alice then kissed Zhang Tie on her own initiative. She really wanted to swallow Zhang Tie today.
