My game, Orange Flavor, is great!

"Your days are numbered."

These six short words were enough to send a chill down Lu Zhao's spine.

Her eyes widened in shock as she stared at him, her voice trembling uncontrollably: "Are you serious?"

Liu Qingluo glanced at her. "It's fake."

As if he had suddenly gone from hell to heaven, a huge weight lifted from his heart. Lu Zhao subconsciously clutched his wildly beating heart, trying hard to suppress the urge to curse. "Minister Liu, could you please not play tricks on me like this next time?"

She finally made up her mind to invite someone to treat her, just in case there was nothing wrong with her body but she was frightened into having some kind of mental breakdown.

There were just too many strange things happening today, otherwise she wouldn't have so abruptly asked someone to come to her home for a medical consultation.

Liu Qingluo rolled her eyes elegantly: "You're stronger than an ox, but the blood clot in your brain has grown larger, and you haven't been taking your medicine as prescribed. How can I be nice to you?"

She scratched her face sheepishly. "There's a reason for that. I only missed taking my medicine for the last two days; I've been taking it regularly the rest of the time..."

Honestly, she was telling the truth. The young lady had been supervising her every night to make sure she took her medicine before going to sleep for a while, and her life was incredibly regular. It was only because she was investigating the explosion that she had temporarily forgotten about it.

"You said you experienced an explosion at close range during the day. Think back carefully, did anything hit your head?" Liu Qingluo touched her wrist again, asking as she did so.

Lu Zhao stared at the ceiling, trying to recall. She and Chi Ying had just arrived at the apartment building when they heard the explosion. Because the explosion happened so fast, she didn't have time to escape with everyone, so she instinctively shielded Chi Ying behind her...

As for whether he hit his head in the process, it's hard to say.

Seeing her blank expression, Liu Qingluo knew it was unreliable to ask this person, so she could only sigh and ask, "You said you were hallucinating today, twice?"

"Yes!"

"Please describe the specific details."

Lu Zhao paused, "This..."

Liu Qingluo frowned, casually tossing her pen onto the table. "If you don't tell me, I'm leaving."

"No, I'll tell you! I'll tell you right now!" She hurriedly grabbed the other person, her expression shifting for a long time before she finally recounted the two recent events with some reservations.

However, Lu Zhao could clearly sense that when she mentioned that she had almost accidentally kissed a girl, Minister Liu's already somewhat disgusted look became even more pronounced.

Hey, she's innocent too, why are you looking at her like that?

Although Lu Zhao inwardly grumbled at Liu Qingluo's look of disdain, he dared not voice it and could only silently shrink himself into the sofa.

“Captain Lu,” Liu Qingluo said wearily as she took off her gold-rimmed glasses, rubbed her eyebrows, and spoke with a mixture of helplessness and disdain, “I thought you were just a bit reckless, but I never expected you to engage in sexual harassment.”

Lu Zhao: ? ? ?

What are you talking about? I already said that she did it unconsciously, it wasn't her intention at all!

Faced with Liu Qingluo's accusations, although she had a lot of complaints to vent, she considered that the other party didn't like her very much to begin with, and if they started arguing, her illness would really become incurable.

"Minister Liu," she said weakly, "this blood clot on your head, will you need surgery?"

"It's not yet certain whether the blood clots are related to the hallucinations you're experiencing. The portable medical pod can only detect relatively little information. I suggest you go to a reputable hospital for a thorough examination."

Lu Zhao's face fell. Now that she was being watched by both the villainous organization and the Spirit Management Bureau, how could she dare to go to the hospital for a check-up?

I'm afraid that as soon as she finishes her investigation, someone will steal the results. Not to mention what the villainous organization will do if they find out about her current situation, if the Bureau of Spirits finds out, the captain will definitely not let her continue.

If a team doesn't have anyone capable of leading the team, it will probably have to disband.

Having finally averted the crisis of disbanding, she couldn't allow her body to ruin all that hard work.

"Please keep this a secret, Minister Liu," she said with a pained expression.

Liu Qingluo snorted: "Protecting patients' privacy is a basic professional ethic. Even if the higher-ups put pressure on me, I won't tell them."

Yes, that's why she invited someone to examine her, despite Minister Liu's sharp tongue.

Lu Zhao sighed again: "Then do we still need to prescribe medicine?"

"You may experience symptoms such as dizziness, nausea, and tinnitus next. I can only prescribe some medication to relieve these symptoms. After all, the injury is to your brain, and you refuse to take your medication properly. Now that the damage has spread, it's not so easy to treat with medication alone."

Liu Qingluo glanced at her and asked suspiciously, "But it's really strange that your symptoms started with hallucinations. Anyway, I advise you to get checked out as soon as possible, otherwise you won't be able to handle anything that happens."

As she spoke, she wrote out a prescription and placed it on the table. Then she tidied up her medical kit, folded the portable medical pod into the size of her palm, and turned around gracefully: "Alright, no need to see me off. Get some rest."

"Thank you, Minister Liu." Lu Zhao picked up the prescription and glanced at it. The handwriting was still completely incomprehensible, which gave him a headache.

Speaking of which, she has been experiencing mild headaches frequently lately, which is probably caused by blood clots in her brain.

So it seems that perhaps she really did accidentally bump into something during the explosion this morning, or that the shock of the explosion affected her brain, which is why she started having some strange hallucinations this afternoon.

"If I can't go to the hospital... I'll just have to find a small clinic to buy medicine." A trembling sigh drifted through the room. She rubbed her temples uncomfortably, preparing to go buy medicine in a little while.

At that moment, Liu Qingluo, who had just left the residential area, saw Xia Zhifei returning.

"Sister Liu?" The young lady was somewhat surprised to meet her here. "What are you doing here?"

Tsk, that Lu Zhao guy, he's always getting her into trouble.

Liu Qinglu cursed that person again in her mind before smiling and saying, "I made plans to have dinner here with a friend."

"Oh ho," Xia Zhifei raised an eyebrow knowingly, "Sister Liu, I seem to remember you rarely going out to eat with people?"

"I just made an appointment with a kid." Liu Qingluo smiled helplessly, as if she was also forced to go out.

"Alright, you guys enjoy your meal. I have to go home!" The young lady knew when to stop, gave her a bright smile, and turned to walk towards the residential area.

As Liu Qingluo watched her retreating figure, the smile on her face gradually faded.

Chapter Sixty-Seven: An Unexpected Encounter

The technology in this world is generally about fifteen years ahead of that in another world, so Lu Zhao suddenly had a bright idea and searched in the mobile app store, and actually found a special app that could decipher doctors' text.

Yes, people have long suffered from the poor handwriting of doctors.

“Painkillers, psychotropic drugs…” Lu Zhao muttered to herself as she read the deciphered text. Her brows furrowed more and more. How come she was being treated like a lunatic after transmigrating?

Especially since there are even medications for treating bipolar disorder on it. Does she look bipolar?

It's just that I have a slightly bigger temper than others, it's not like I need to use this kind of drug to control it, right?

"Ah Zhao, I'm back!"

Xia Zhifei's voice rang out at the right time, startling her so much that she quickly stuffed the prescription into her bosom and cautiously deleted the app she had just downloaded before getting up to greet the young lady: "Why are you back so early today? Is Xiao Ruo alright alone in the hospital?"

"Don't worry, I asked the caregiver to keep watch over you at night," Xia Zhifei said cheerfully as she walked into the house in her slippers. "Now that you're home every day, I have to make time to keep an eye on you too!"

Lu Zhao's face twitched. "I'm not a child anymore, what's there to watch over..."

“I saw Sister Liu when I came back just now,” Xia Zhifei glanced at her, immediately seeing through her guilty conscience, “You invited her to come for a consultation, right? What was the result?”

Liu Qingluo doesn't live here at all, and she's never made an appointment to eat here before. She could tell at a glance that the other party was covering for someone.

And who else could this "someone" be but Lu Zhao?

"Uh..." Lu Zhao awkwardly tugged at the corner of his mouth, "Actually, it's nothing serious. They just prescribed some new medicine for me to continue taking."

Xia Zhifei nodded: "Alright, they're both patients, so I'll take care of them both."

"Then I'll have to trouble you..." Lu Zhao knew it was wrong to hide her illness, but now that the aliens were clearly targeting her, she couldn't let Xia Zhifei worry, so she didn't even tell her what happened this afternoon.

However, there were some things she really could only ask Xia Zhifei to do for her.

"By the way, a new neighbor moved in next door, you should know, right?" She sat down next to the young lady as if it were a natural thing, and handed her a piece of apple that she had peeled in advance in a very ingratiating manner.

Xia Zhifei nodded, took a bite of the apple, and mumbled, "I know, a moving company truck was parked next door just two days ago, why are you suddenly bringing this up?"

Lu Zhao paused for a moment before saying, "That neighbor is the second newcomer who is about to join our team."

"What?" The young lady looked completely bewildered. "You had them move in? Why go through all that trouble?"

“I…” Lu Zhao was speechless, and explained helplessly, “It’s just a coincidence! But I’m suspended from my job now, so I can’t help her with the procedures for the time being. Why don’t you ask her to go to the Department of Spirits and Deaths for me tomorrow to get the procedures done first?”

Xia Zhifei gave her a strange look: "So you must have met them, right? How was it? Was it a boy or a girl? What kind of spiritual power did they have? Were they easy to get along with?"

The barrage of questions completely baffled Lu Zhao, who had finally mustered the courage to bring it up. She quickly waved her hand to stop her, saying, "Wait! You're asking so many questions at once, it's hard for me to answer them all..."

What's so hard to answer?

The young lady frowned slightly, then simply held out her hand and said, "Give me their contact information, I'll arrange a time with them."

This decisive and efficient approach left Lu Zhao speechless. After what happened that afternoon, she was already embarrassed to face Si Ling and thought that the young lady would ask her some questions. Now it seems that she was overthinking it.

Or rather, she was actually feeling guilty.

She took out her phone and gave Si Ling's contact information to the young lady. She immediately stood up and said, "It's getting late. I'm going to take a shower first. You should find something to eat first."

After saying that, he hurriedly fled before Xia Zhifei could ask any more questions.

"...Was the heating set too high today?" Xia Zhifei stared at her in disbelief as she ran away. After a long while, he finally spoke to himself.

Otherwise, why would her childhood sweetheart suddenly turn so red?

She glanced down at the message on her phone, chuckled, and clicked the friend request button, adding a note: "Lu Zhao asked me to add you."

She had barely clicked the button and hadn't even had time to return to the main screen when she saw the system message: "Your friend request has been accepted."

So fast?

She clicked on the chat interface with the nickname "L" in surprise. Before she could even type a question mark, the other party sent a message first.

"Hello, I am Si Ling."

The post also included a cute cat bowing emoji.

Xia Zhifei raised an eyebrow. This newcomer was quite polite, unlike some of the people he had met before who thought they were superior just because they were high-level spirits.

"Hello, I'm Xia Zhifei, a member of Team One. If you're free tomorrow, come with us to the Spirit Management Bureau to complete the induction procedures. That way, you'll be officially a member."

If something can be explained in one sentence, I will never split it into two parts.

This time, however, Xia Zhifei waited for several minutes but did not receive a reply from Si Ling.

Hmm... something came up unexpectedly.

She decided to find something to eat while she waited.

As soon as he got up, he heard a doorbell ring.

"Ah Zhao, did you order takeout?" she called out towards the bathroom, but there was no response; she must have been taking a shower and hadn't heard her.

Xia Zhifei then walked to the door and glanced through the video call, only to find a stunningly beautiful woman standing there dressed in a thin outfit.

Are delivery drivers now required to be this good-looking?
