This Curse Is Just Awesome - Chapter 46
Chapter 46: College Entrance Examination… 120 Hours
The next day.
The sun shone through the curtains and onto Chen Yu’s face.
He slowly opened his eyes and saw a figure dressed in a full and attractive outfit, slowly putting on his clothes.
After being dazed for three seconds, Chen Yu suddenly got up, grabbed the blanket, and roared at Sister Qi, “What did you do to me?!”
Sister Qi put on her coat, turned around, and said while buttoning her shirt, “You’re awake? I’ll take responsibility.”
“Alright then, buy me a PS5. This matter will be settled.”
Sister Qi lifted the pillow and slammed it hard on Chen Yu’s head. “PS5!”
Bang!
“I’ll let you have a PS5!”
Bang!
“Why the hell did you take off my clothes?!”
Bang!
“You won’t let a widow go!”
Bang!
“Take off my clothes while I’m unconscious! Beast!”
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang…!
Chen Yu scrambled out of bed and raised his hands. “I didn’t do anything!”
Sister Qi was even angrier. She kicked Chen Yu out of the room. “You can’t do it even if you take off your clothes!”
Bang…
Lying on the floor of the living room, Chen Yu did not move at all.
Sister Qi closed the door with a ‘Bang!’
“Reflect on yourself!”
Chen Yu: “…”
[Mental damage inflicted: Spirit +4]
Holding his waist and standing up, Chen Yu was very gratified. “Looks like your body has recovered quite well…”
Ding dong–
At this moment, the doorbell on the first floor rang.
Sister Qi, who was in the bedroom, shouted, “Go and open the door!”
Chen Yu quickly went downstairs and opened the door.
He saw four police officers standing outside.
“Hello.” The leader saluted and took out his own documents. “We’re from the Elm Street Police Station.”
“Hello, what’s the matter again?”
“We understand that you’ve brought Ms. Qi Cheng back from the hospital?”
“That’s right.”
“But when we checked Ms. Qi Cheng’s account, we found that she had sufficient savings to support the hospital’s treatment.” The police officer’s face was cold. “As the sole beneficiary of her assets, bringing her back to await her death is already considered criminal law.”
Chen Yu: “…”
The police officer: “Now, immediately, send Ms. Qi Cheng back to the hospital for treatment!”
“She doesn’t need to go to the hospital anymore.”
“What? She’s dead?!” The police officer clenched his fists, his eyes spitting fire.
“No, no, no!” Chen Yu waved his hands. “I mean she’s fully recovered.”
Then, he shouted, “Sister Qi, open the window and show your head!”
Crash!
The window was pulled open, and Sister Qi stuck her head out. “What?”
“Nothing, go back.”
Sister Qi glanced at the police officers downstairs and closed the window. “Mental…”
“Look, she has already recovered. She’s alive and kicking.” Chen Yu spread his hands and explained, “When I went to the hospital, I realized that it wasn’t as serious as the Doctor said. “The Red Cross Hospital is here to steal and swindle an old widow in her forties. I’m definitely going to take her away. If I don’t leave, she won’t have any money to spend in the future. It’s impossible for her to work part-time. She’s still losing money in her business, and she only has a few hundred thousand yuan left to make ends meet…”
The police officer: “… Is… Is that so…”
“Facts speak louder than words. If she’s really severely exhausted, I’ve already brought her ashes back. I think you should check out that Red Cross Hospital.”
The police officers whispered to each other. The leader took a step forward and said, “We’ll investigate this matter. Please sign here.”
“Okay.”
After signing, he watched the four people leave. Chen Yu closed the door and went upstairs.
“What are they doing here? Are they from the cigarette management office again?”
“Didn’t you run out of energy? Yesterday, I found you a Level 3 martial artist and lost an entire afternoon of energy. They are here to see how you are doing.”
Chen Yu did not choose to tell the truth.
After all, a martial artist who was not even Level 1 did something like a Level 3 martial artist. There was no way to explain it.
“My energy was so exhausted?!” Sister Qi was surprised. “I thought I was just in a coma.”
“I guess you didn’t like waking up in the hospital, so I took you out of the hospital early. I was afraid that you wouldn’t sleep well at night, so I helped you take off your coat.”
“Asking a martial artist to inject my energy, it should be a lot of money, right?”
“You’re a hero! The government paid for it.”
“Oh…” Sister Qi stared at Chen Yu and nodded.
Chen Yu was a little scared by her stare, so he quickly changed the topic. “By the way, Sister Qi, do you know about the direction of the Beast Tide?”
“Of course I know. When I woke up, I found that I wasn’t dead, so I used my phone to search. I didn’t expect the Beast Tide to be able to move.” Sister Qi walked into the kitchen and put on her scarf. “Let’s not talk about this anymore. I’m going to cook. If I’m not dead, then everything will be the same.”
“By the way, why did you go to the dare-to-die squad? Isn’t it good to be alive?”
“The Beast Tide is coming. No matter what, it’s still death. It’s better to take the initiative to attack.”
“Guarding the city wall will allow you to live a little longer.”
“I have a grudge against the exotic beasts.”
…
The crisis was resolved.
The people of Qingcheng City returned to their previous lives.
The humans who lived under the fear of the exotic beasts seemed to have forgotten their fear.
They were like a group of ants. Without thinking, living purely for the sake of living.
Ten in the morning.
All entertainment programs were suspended, all movies were suspended, and all online games were suspended.
The live broadcast of the news turned black and white.
The flags in the capital square were lowered to half-mast.
Solemn and tragic music came from every loudspeaker.
On the streets, in the houses, in the schools, in the factories…
Regardless of men, women, old or young, they all lowered their heads, closed their eyes, and lamented the departure of hundreds of thousands of their compatriots in Crane City.
Sister Qi also closed the signboard of the cigarette shop and stood at the door with Chen Yu to mourn.
The entire street, the entire city, and the entire country fell silent at this moment.
Only the eulogy that came from the broadcast was left.
“The disaster has once again befallen us. We are extremely sorrowful and helpless. The pent-up energy has gathered in our chest and won’t disperse.”
“Forgive the weakness of our compatriots!”
“You are happy that you are gone. Even though your breathing is stiff, you are no longer afraid of being hurt by evil or troubled by the abyss.”
“We are mourning for you when you are gone. We are unable to prepare a coffin for you and offer you the flowers that you love…”
“The flowers fall, cherishing spring.”
“The death of a person, the injury.”
“Our brothers and sisters, our flesh and blood compatriots! We will remember the final expression on your face.”
“…”
“…”
“The wind of hope sweeps across the human world with our thoughts.”
“We are not fated to join hands in this life.”
“We hope that we will have a good journey.”
“May mankind live on forever…”
Sister Qi opened her eyes and muttered, “May mankind live on forever.”
Chen Yu felt the pressure in his chest and said, “May mankind live forever.”
“May mankind live forever.” × 1368.
“May mankind live forever.” × 167230.
“May mankind live forever.” × 67 million.
“May mankind live forever…” × 800 million.
…
One day.
Two days.
Five days…
Time passed by in a hurry.
Everything returned to normal.
The dead were gone, but the living continued to struggle in this doomsday.
In fact, everyone hoped that there would be a hero who could save the world. To lead mankind out of the sea of suffering.
And the college entrance examination…
Was the first scene in which a hero was born.
This was also the fundamental reason why people worshiped the top scorer.
July 2nd.
There were 120 hours left until the college entrance examination…
