Chapter 244: Chapter 224 The Two Awakened

Almost at the moment Wang Hao left,

The young Cleaning Crew Leader found Xu Zhijun and Chen Xinyi, secretly sizing up their appearances.

The more he looked, the more shocked he felt!

The towering Xu Zhijun had the stature of a silverback gorilla, standing 2.5 meters tall and probably weighing two to three hundred kilograms, definitely not any ordinary person! (The average height for males in this world is around 1.7 meters)

Chen Xinyi seemed normal at a glance, but upon closer inspection, the color of her pupils and the shape of her ears were slightly different from those of normal people.

"In our world, there should be people with brown pupils living at the North Pole... But this man is just too tall, completely beyond the world record..."

"Wait... just now, who told me this information?"

The youth racked his brain and suddenly realized.

He had forgotten the appearance of that "uncle," and even who he was in the first place.

At that moment, all the hairs on his body stood on end, and his clothes were soaked with sweat!

Why did I forget?!

There were two possibilities, first, there was a major issue with his current mental state; second, that "uncle" might have something to hide.

His heart wildly thumping, he looked doubtfully at the two letters in his hand, the evidence that indeed someone had spoken to him just before.

The young man quickly returned to his office, tested his ability to distinguish red, and breathed a sigh of relief.

"Thank goodness, I can still see red."

"It shouldn’t be ’It’..."

He put on an exquisite metal necklace and made a phone call, reporting the information to his superiors.

"...someone gave me two letters, I haven’t opened them to look yet..."

"And I found two very strange employees in the Hospital, they look... like they don’t belong to our world."

"I’m providing you with their photos now... Please help check them out."

After a short wait, a reply came through.

"...You can’t trace the identities of these two?"

"I understand."

"I’ll bring them to the Funeral Parlor right now."

The young man gritted his teeth, thought for a moment, and then found Chen Xinyi and Xu Zhijun.

"Come with me for a moment."

"There’s a cleaning task at the Funeral Parlor."

Cleaners and security, as external staff, have a "certain probability" of leaving the Hospital... The odds of this were about fifty-fifty.

The bottom line of ’It’ was hard to grasp.

Angering ’It’ would mean the Logistic Manager would face death as well!

During the walk, the young group leader felt pressure from all sides, as if numerous pairs of eyes were watching his back.

He knew this action was very dangerous, like standing on the edge of a cliff or on a thin sheet of ice.

One misstep could be catastrophic!

But... when it came to "variables," he had to complete this task.

"I must do this."

After some time, he successfully led Chen Xinyi and Xu Zhijun into the Funeral Parlor next door.

Fortunately, this time, they didn’t attract the attack of ’It’.

They had dodged it.

The young Logistics Manager wiped the sweat from his brow and exhaled softly, "You clean up here, understand? Make it spotless."

"You, move those miscellaneous items over there."

"And go into that room, and sweep out the dust."

The Funeral Parlor, a farewell place for the dead surrounded by greenery, a place people dread but inevitably must visit.

Most people will end up there more than once in their lives, but the last time they do, they are in a different form altogether.

Death, the ultimate truth of the Etheric Abyss.

All things inevitably age.

When they saw coffins being thrown into the cremation furnace, a fear rooted in reality slowly pulled Chen Xinyi and Xu Zhijun from their delusional state, back to reality.

In that instant, they were awakened!

The Black-clothed Guard, a taciturn sanitation worker, Ms. Chen, was so scared she almost cried on the spot. This sudden enlightenment felt like getting doused with a bucket of cold water while sleepwalking, chilling her to the bone... and her bladder nearly burst from the shock!

"What... what is this place?"

"Why am I here..."

The red flames in her mind suddenly flickered.

She remembered something.

To her shock, she realized she wasn’t speaking Chinese.

But an unknown language that was utterly incomprehensible!

She recalled the scene where she entered the elevator, her face crumpling into a frown.

This was... this was traveling through worlds!

And she had even been scooping dung here for days!

Xu Zhijun’s eyes were wide as well, uttering incomprehensible words from his throat.

"The two of you, whatever you have to say can wait until later, my leader is on the way."

"Please be careful with your words while you’re here."

The logistics manager standing to the side, noticing that the two of them had recovered their memories, kindly suggested.

"Tha... thank you."

"You’re welcome. Please continue cleaning up. No matter what, you have to finish ’today’s’ work." He emphasized the word "today."

Chen Xinyi didn’t dare to slack off and shuddered violently, then patted Xu Zhijun to continue their work.

Her face was alternating between pale and flushed. She reeked of dung through and through, and it was simply dreadful.

Xu Zhijun too had a dark expression on his face, silently moving miscellaneous items in the Funeral Parlor.

This situation was too bizarre, a bit beyond their understanding.

"Can we take a break?" Chen Xinyi quickly thought of a solution.

"After you finish your work, please feel free."

She made a few gestures and closed her eyes.

Xu Zhijun did the same.

The red flames in their minds were jumping.

Their souls returned to the Game Training Camp!

"We’re... we’re back again!" Miss Chen was close to tears; this wasn’t the first disaster she had faced.

"But our bodies are still left in that world..." Xu Zhijun’s voice was deep and muffled.

"That you... ah, have you become smarter?" Chen Xinyi exclaimed with surprise, "Did that hospital actually cure you?"

...

The Game Training Camp now houses approximately a thousand human scientific research workers, lending a touch of liveliness to the vast space. Occasionally, passing by foreign researchers could be heard chatting excitedly.

It seems, probably... there’s some interesting scientific breakthrough?

Soon, Chen Xinyi found the contact person for the Black-clothed Guard through the portal and got in touch with the organization.

After feeling that familiar sense of security, her anxious fear gradually subsided.

At this moment, the Black-clothed Guard was doing everything possible to quickly handle the unexpectedly appearing "Qingtian Hospital."

Upon hearing of Chen Xinyi’s soul’s return, they hurriedly sent people to receive her.

"It has been really busy lately..."

"Have you traveled to an otherworldly world... a parallel world inhabited by a large number of humans? Oh, we already know about this. It’s not just you who have traveled; there’s also a young girl who has come over to our side."

This time, the one responsible for conversing with them was Investigator Number 12, Lu Tianming.

"Ah... someone else traveled to Earth?" Miss Chen scratched her head, both astonished and curious.

Lu Tianming, with a teasing tone, said unhurriedly, "Yes, a very capable girl named Feng Ling has traveled to our world. Her level of ability... Let me estimate, maybe a hundred or even a thousand times greater than both of you."

He made two gestures, one indicating the size of a millstone, the other as small as a pinky.

Miss Chen’s face scrunched up. How can you say that about me? After all, I’m also a Black-clothed Guard. Even if it’s an elder or a leader, how could you bully me like this?

Seeing her unconvinced expression, Lu Tianming spat out a string of questions: "Is the civilization over there more advanced than ours, or is it weaker? How much will we have to invest in communicating with them, and what can we hope to gain?"

Miss Chen was stunned.

"Have they entered the space age? Have they managed controlled nuclear fusion? What about room-temperature superconductivity, have they invented that? You must have found out something, right?"

"And their military power, how’s that? The distribution of states, population numbers, biological density, the richness of resources, whether they possess special minerals, the level of the supernatural... There’s so much information; you should’ve found out something. You better not tell me you haven’t..."

Miss Chen covered her face, ashamed.

I’m such a lousy Investigator!
