Chapter 152: Going To A Hotel
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
After Lin Bai closed the car door, he did not get into the driver’s seat. Instead, he returned to the side of the unconscious Wang Hao.
This made Ling Xuewei very puzzled.
She struggled to prop herself up and looked out of the car window, wanting to know what Lin Bai was going to do.
In fact, Lin Bai himself did not even know what he was going to do.
He had originally planned to leave directly, but for some reason, there was a thought in his heart that led him to turn back and take a look.
Lin Bai didn’t think much and chose to follow the thought in his heart.
This was because his countless experiences had proved that his intuition had never been groundless.
Since it had appeared, there must be a reason.
As for what it was, he would know once he went to take a look.
Wang Hao was still lying in his original position.
Lin Bai grabbed his collar and lifted him up to take a look. He confirmed that he was only unconscious and that his life was not in danger.
Then, Lin Bai let go and allowed him to pounce on the ground again.
However, the moment he released his grip, Lin Bai was stunned.
Then, he quickly picked Wang Hao up again, released his grip again, and then picked him up again tentatively.
This repeated three or four times. Ling Xuewei was baffled in the car, completely unable to understand what he was doing.
However, Lin Bai was now certain that when he came into contact with Wang Hao, some kind of subtle…
Resonance?
For a moment, Lin Bai could not find a suitable word to describe it.
However, every time he picked up Wang Hao, a subtle buzzing sound would ring out in his mind.
Only when he released his hand did the sound disappear.
That sound was very strange. It was like some kind of resonance at the same frequency, but also like electromagnetic interference.
It was very weak. If one did not carefully sense it, it would be very easy to overlook it.
Lin Bai was certain that this was the reason that his intuition had guided him back.
But what did this sound mean?
Intuition could not have guided him back just to let him hear the sound, right?
What was behind the sound?
Lin Bai had no clue. He pulled on Wang Hao’s clothes, turned him over, and made him lie on his back.
At the same time, he was thinking whether or not he should wake him up and ask.
At this moment, Wang Hao’s phone, which was in his pocket, slowly slid out.
Lin Bai subconsciously reached out to take it. The moment his fingertips touched the phone, his body suddenly trembled, as if an electric current had coursed through his body.
Then, he heard the sound of a system notification in his mind.
[Beep, Congratulations to the host for successfully absorbing a D-class Superpower, providing 3,000 energy points to the system.]
[Reward: one copy of Real Estate News app, Max level luck value 30 days!]
After hearing the notification, Lin Bai hurriedly took out his phone to check.
As expected, there was a new app next to the Future News app on the interface.
Real Estate News Flash.
Lin Bai immediately understood.
Wang Hao’s strange resume and mysterious source of insider information was all because of this.
Lin Bai opened the Real Estate News app and took a look. As he expected, the information displayed inside was all from a few months or even a few years later.
Just like his Future News app, it was all information from the future.
The difference was that his app only had information related to real estate, but the Future News app contained everything, from the weather forecast to social news.
Lin Bai chuckled and said in a soft voice that only he could hear, “No wonder Ling Xuewei couldn’t find out who the government official behind you is even after searching for so long. It turns out that he doesn’t have one at all.”
“It’s your bad luck to meet me. Your app now belongs to me.”
Lin Bai patted Wang Hao’s face a few times in a mocking manner.
From Ling Xuewei’s point of view, it seemed like she was trying to wake him up.
However, in reality, Lin Bai was merely mocking him.
While he was at it, he wanted to make sure that he wouldn’t hear that buzzing sound again after absorbing the other party’s special ability.
As he had expected, he couldn’t hear anything.
Therefore, Lin Bai was sure that the humming sound was the unique sensing between superpowered people.
However, he wasn’t sure whether Lin Bai was the only one who could hear it, or if both of them could sense it.
If it was the latter, he would have to be more careful next time he encountered other people with superpowers.
Who knew if his power would be sucked away by others like this?
Lin Bai stood up and let out a sigh of relief. He had a complicated feeling in his heart.
After living for more than twenty years, he realized for the first time that this world was completely different from what he had imagined.
There might be many lucky people like him who were blessed by fate in this city.
Each of them carried their own power and quietly developed in their own fields.
If they couldn’t meet other superpowers in their lifetime, they wouldn’t affect each other.
What if they did?
Would it be like today, where the strong preyed on the weak?
What was the level of his future news app, and would it be the strongest?
Lin Bai tried to ask the system with his mind, but the system didn’t give him any response.
This made Lin Bai’s feelings more complicated.
Ling Xuewei was struggling in the car. When she saw that Lin Bai was in a daze, she could not help but call out to him.
“Lin Bai?”
Only then did Lin Bai come back to his senses. He suppressed the various thoughts in his mind and quickly walked back to the car.
Ling Xuewei could see that Lin Bai’s expression was not too good. She asked worriedly,
“What’s wrong? Is It Wang Hao…”
“Don’t worry too much. The surveillance cameras have definitely recorded it. Even if anything happens to him, we are just defending ourselves. He will be fine.”
She thought Wang Hao was dead.
Lin Bai interrupted her. “Wang Hao is fine. He’s just unconscious.”
Ling Xuewei immediately heaved a sigh of relief. Then, she felt strange. “Then why do you have that expression?”
“Nothing.”
Lin Bai did not want to say more. After fastening his seatbelt, he turned his head and said, “Give me the car keys.”
Ling Xuewei quickly handed over the car keys. Then, she carefully discussed with Lin Bai.
“Can you not send me home first?”
“If my mother sees me like this, she will definitely let her imagination run wild.”
Lin Bai felt that she was right, so he nodded.
“Okay, then I’ll send you to the hospital.”
“Uh… can you not go to the hospital too?” Ling Xuewei continued to discuss awkwardly.
Lin Bai asked her, “Then where do you want to go?”
Ling Xuewei’s pretty face turned slightly red. She held it in for a few seconds before she braced herself and said, “To the hotel, okay?”
Lin Bai suddenly slammed on the brakes, and Ling Xuewei almost fell out of the back seat.
Ling Xuewei quickly explained, “Don’t misunderstand! I didn’t mean anything by it!”
“It’s just my habit. It’s really not convenient to go to public places, so I want to find a place to change my clothes first.”
“… is that alright?”
Ling Xuewei was so embarrassed that she wished she could find a hole to hide in.
No matter what, she was still a woman.. Asking a man to bring her to a hotel still made her face burn with shyness even though she had a valid reason.
