The next day, Bai Zhan still took two bodyguards to negotiate with the directors, and Xiaolong asked Pete to accompany him to do various examinations in the hospital, and after the examination, Xiaolong was able to be discharged from the hospital and go home to recuperate.

However, Xiaolong must be tomorrow's plane ticket, so he is not in a hurry to leave the hospital, Bai Zhan paid him for two days' ward, Xiaolong can stay until tomorrow morning and then leave, for Xiaolong, it is the same wherever he lives, and it is good to live in the hospital.
"One against 2, keep a king, Pete, you lose again."
Idle and bored, Xiaolong played two-player poker with Pete in the hospital, this time Pete was still abused by Xiaolong, but it was a little better than last time, and he won at least one game in the morning.
"Xiaolong first..., why are you winning, do you have any tricks?"
Losing all the time makes Pete feel very strange, he has played so many games, and Pete understands the specific gameplay almost well, but playing with Xiaolong still wins less and loses more, which makes his black head unable to figure it out.
Xiaolong vaguely hid the cards in his hand into the belt, and said seriously: "I don't have any tricks, mainly because your face is black. ”
"......" Pete was speechless, although he knew that Xiaolong did not discriminate against him, but this answer made him speechless, he was African, can he blame him?
Squeak~
"If Xiaolong talks like this, if he is in South Africa or South America, he will not be killed by blacks, but he will be assassinated."
The door of the ward was pushed open, and Xiaolong only saw a hand as white as jade, and a cold voice came from outside the door. Wu Xin'er wore a white dress and a lady's hat and walked in.
"Why are you here?" Xiaolong hadn't contacted Wu Xin'er for more than a month, and she hadn't looked for Xiaolong again after asking her to help her make the White Snake's theme song interlude. If she hadn't suddenly appeared today, Xiaolong would have forgotten that she had such a cousin.
"If you can be here, can't I be here?" Wu Xin'er found a chair very casually and sat next to Xiaolong, and did not treat herself as an outsider.
But in fact, she is indeed not an outsider, in terms of blood, he and Xiaolong have part of the same blood, but this is only the second time Xiaolong has seen his cousin, and it feels a little awkward and subtle.
The main reason is that this Wu Xin'er is too good-looking, her facial features are delicate and her face is condensed, and her figure is also concave and convex, which completely meets the standards of the goddess in his heart, but it is his cousin, which gives him a feeling that he wants to flirt but does not dare to flirt.
And Pete kept her vigilant when Wu Xin'er came in, and consciously told Pete that this woman was not easy to mess with. Just like the children he saw on the battlefields in the Middle East, the children in the Middle East are the existence they need to be most careful of, and when children in other countries are 4 or 5 years old and only know how to hide in the coquettishness of their parents, 5-year-old children in the Middle East may have killed more than one hand.
"You have legs yourself, and you have such long legs, can I stop them? Pete, let's have another plate. Xiaolong shrugged his shoulders and said, then turned his head to Pete and said, shuffling the poker cards around him from the beginning, and taking out the poker in the bandage while Pete was paying attention to Wu Xin'er.
"If it weren't for the fact that you were my grandmother's only grandson, my only cousin. I'm too lazy to care about you. Now, this mouse is for you. Wu Xin'er saw that Xiaolong only said a few words to herself, so she went to play poker again, rolled her eyes, took off her lady's hat, and took out a black and white mouse from it and threw it to Xiaolong.
And when the mouse was thrown out, it turned three times in the air, Pete kept paying attention to Wu Xin'er, and when he saw her throwing something, he wanted to reach out and grab it, but he didn't expect that the mouse escaped from his hands with agility and landed on Xiaolong's head steadily, which startled Xiaolong and made Pete stunned.
It's still a mouse, and the squirrel isn't as agile as it is.
"Holy, you threw something on my head." All this came too fast, Xiaolong didn't see what was happening, and an unknown object fell on his head, soft to the touch, and when he caught it, he saw that it was a cute little mouse.
And this little mouse is very humane, lying on Xiaolong's hand and not running, half-sitting there, shrinking its two front paws in front of its chest, looking at Xiaolong with watery eyes, reaching out to scratch its stomach, it squinted its eyes to show a very comfortable look.
"It's pretty cute to look at, it's very smart, give it to me? It's a pity, why don't you keep it yourself. Xiaolong teased the little mouse and said to Wu Xin'er.
"Let him out first." Wu Xin'er looked at Pete and said, Xiaolong hesitated and nodded, asking him to wait at the door first.
Pete looked at Wu Xin'er with strange eyes, this woman made him feel very dangerous, he didn't want to leave, but Xiaolong spoke, he had no reason to refuse, he could only wait at the door first, but as soon as there was any movement in the room, he would rush in.
After seeing Pete leave, Wu Xin'er spoke: "His name is Zero, he can sense the danger around him, and he can also understand your words and help you with some small favors." And I have many more such rats. And this one is also for you. ”
After speaking, she took out a small note from the pendant on her chest and threw it to Xiaolong.
This time, Wu Xin'er, to buy a taste of herbs, heard that Hanwu had appeared here, specially came to try her luck, just saw the news about the shooting incident in Hanwu People's Hospital, saw that the injured person looked like Xiaolong, and rushed over to take a look, by the way to fulfill her grandmother's last wish.
Seeing that he had something for himself, Xiaolong hurriedly put the mouse on his head and took the note.
"I thought you gave me this mouse for cats to eat, ah, it hurts! Zero, I'm wrong, don't pull my hair. Xiaolong muttered and opened the note, suddenly felt a pain in his scalp, and begged for mercy again and again
Then he looked at the note again, and saw that there were many kinds of Chinese medicine written on it, and many Xiaolong had only heard the name, but a few small words in the lower right corner caught his attention.
"Beast Control Sect?! What the hell? ”
"A very old sect, maybe our ancestors." Wu Xin'er said coldly, it was because of this piece of paper that his father and grandmother couldn't see each other for decades.
"Is there such a thing in society now? It's really fake, it's not going to be another cousin from the Edgeworth Gate tomorrow. Xiaolong said half-jokingly, Xiaolong had never seen any supernatural people or things until now, but when he thought of his crossing and rebirth, he felt that there was no absolute in everything, and he began to faintly look forward to and worry in his heart.
And Wu Xin'er's next sentence turned his expectations and worries into disappointment and small happiness.
"No, it's not that no one of our ancestors has wanted to find these legendary sects, but they haven't found all of them, my grandfather, your grandfather, and great-grandfather have all gone to look for them, but they haven't found it, but people have found out that we have this piece of paper from the Beast Control Sect, which has caused a disaster. Luckily, it was World War II, and we fled into the woods and didn't get caught. After the war ended, no one knew about the existence of this piece of paper, and then our family moved to a small mountain village in Weng City. ”
"This piece of paper? It doesn't look like a secret. Xiaolong looked at it repeatedly, it was a note with medicinal herbs written on it, nothing special, what did Wu Xin'er give him this note for.
