My Ability Pool is Superior

Lu Bai finished speaking a few words and hung up the phone, not wanting to hear Xu Qiang’s complaints on the other end at all.

He crouched down to check Yao Yi’s condition: “There aren’t any fatal injuries. The most dangerous thing is excessive blood loss. It seems you protected him pretty well.”

Multitasking was simple for Wang Ting. While it modified several heads, it responded, “I did it so I could survive.”

Lu Bai simply gave Yao Yi hemostatic treatment: “It looks like you two are getting along well now?”

“Actually not really. I can feel that he still resists me a lot. This time he was willing to accept me only because he encountered life-threatening danger.”

“Indeed, you failed to take his brain. That’s my fault.” Lu Bai spread his hands.

Wang Ting still couldn’t understand Lu Bai’s teasing for the time being. Two weird eyeballs nodded downward.

“Yes, the current parasitic position is very unfavorable for me.”

“For you, aside from the brain, there is no ideal parasitic position, right? Arm?”

“None are ideal. Yao Yi is too weak.”

Wang Ting finished processing the two boys’ heads and began modifying the female high school student.

One of its eyeballs turned toward Lu Bai: “According to my judgment, parasitizing you would increase the survival rate by seventy percent.”

“How come only seventy percent?”

“Because this is my preliminary judgment. I don’t understand you deeply enough yet, so the judgment is biased toward conservatism.”

The man and the beast chatted idly like this. After about a few minutes, sounds mixed with police sirens and first aid approached from far to near.

Lu Bai stood up and patted the non-existent dust off his body: “Alright, you should hide now.”

……

Evening, First People’s Hospital in Jiangyu City, outside the ICU hospital room.

“Just don’t know if that leg will leave any aftereffects.”

After learning Yao Yi’s condition from the doctor, Tong Shujuan’s suspended heart finally settled.

Xu Qiang sighed, “Don’t worry, this kid has always had pretty good luck.”

Lu Bai checked the time: “It should be bad luck instead. He was just discharged a few hours ago.”

“So what exactly happened with you guys? There were clearly only three parasitic organisms, yet he got injured so badly.”

Xu Qiang didn’t quite understand. In his cognition, even if they encountered five or six parasitic organisms, Lu Bai should be able to resolve them without injury.

“Blame yourself for not giving him a pistol.” Lu Bai casually shifted the blame. He couldn’t say that he had gone to stab people at the time, right.

“None of you have undergone professional training, so you don’t meet the requirements for being issued a pistol.”

Xu Qiang gave a symbolic explanation and then said, “Since there’s nothing serious, I’ll head back to the bureau first. There’s a pile of things there that haven’t been handled. I’ll come see Little Yao again when he wakes up. As for you, kid…”

Thinking of Lu Bai’s way of doing things, he felt a mix of emotions: “You’re a team leader at least now, so settle down a bit. There’s no need to rush resolving parasitic organisms. Don’t call me again soon to clean up the mess.”

With that, Xu Qiang hurriedly left with two subordinates.

It suddenly became quiet. In the family waiting area outside the hospital room, only Lu Bai and Tong Shujuan remained, and the atmosphere suddenly felt a bit awkward.

It had to be said that Tong Shujuan’s feelings toward Lu Bai were quite subtle. At least, getting along with him wasn’t as natural as with Yao Yi.

Yao Yi had pulled Tong Shujuan to run away at the time and hid with her behind the scrap pile. No matter what, she owed him that favor.

But Lu Bai was different.

Of course, it wasn’t resentment or anything like that. It was simply a psychological knot.

Reason told her that she should be grateful for Lu Bai’s life-saving grace, but emotionally, she had watched Lu Bai stab her parents one by one. Even knowing they could no longer be considered her parents, it wasn’t that easy to get over that hurdle.

This led to her always acting unnaturally whenever facing Lu Bai. She generally wouldn’t be alone with him or chat idly.

“Um… Lu, team leader.”

Tong Shujuan felt that continuing in silence would make the atmosphere more and more awkward, so she took the initiative to start the conversation: “Did you know the official media announced the parasitic organism incident?”

“Bureau Chief Xu mentioned it briefly before. What’s up?”

Lu Bai didn’t have Tong Shujuan’s complex psychological activities. He focused mainly on observing the crowds coming and going in the corridor outside.

According to his understanding, since the “node” had already appeared, there should be quite a few death fighters secretly approaching this hospital by now. Maybe some bold death fighters were mixed in among the people passing through the corridor.

“Uh, well, it’s getting a lot of heat online.”

Lu Bai’s reaction made Tong Shujuan feel even more awkward. Gritting her teeth, she continued, “A lot of people are discussing the parasitic organism matter. Everyone is also very interested in the Special Affairs Bureau, which is specifically responsible for such incidents.”

“Is that so?”

Lu Bai responded casually.

He hadn’t spotted anyone with a title above their head, and death fighters generally had good acting skills. It was hard to judge just from behavior, so everyone he looked at seemed a bit suspicious.

Tong Shujuan felt she had made a fool of herself and simply gave up, taking out her mobile phone to browse the news.

But she hadn’t been browsing long before she frowned: “Team Leader Lu Bai, someone posted your information online.”

The fact was absurd. Online, the top heat was parasitic organisms, second was Lu Bai’s resume, and even the Special Affairs Bureau ranked behind.

“I got doxxed?” Lu Bai was stunned.

“Yeah, your resume was posted online. I’ll have my colleagues handle it for you.”

Tong Shujuan wasn’t bragging. After all, the department she joined in the Special Affairs Bureau was responsible for online supervision.

“Is there a problem?”

“It’s all your black history from school. The top comments also have strong bias, clearly someone is steering the narrative.”

Halfway through speaking, Tong Shujuan raised her eyebrows, somewhat incredulous: “How is official media reposting it too? And this bias…”

Lu Bai leaned over to take a look.

This article first affirmed the Special Affairs Bureau’s work and necessity, laying a solid foundation or whatever—anyway, a bunch of high-sounding words.

Then it turned around, saying something about being puzzled by the team’s purity, believing the Special Affairs Bureau was the mainstay against parasitic organisms and couldn’t allow some bad factors to gradually rise and intensify within it…

Although the entire article didn’t mention Lu Bai’s name, from the official media’s repost, it was obvious who those bad factors referred to.

Even without looking at the comments, Lu Bai knew the comments below were probably all cursing him.

There was indeed no way around this aspect. In a sense, that was indeed the fact.

Could only blame the initial resume provided by the Deathmatch System for being too awful. It was hard to whitewash even if he wanted to.

But to stir up such a big fuss all at once, there must definitely be someone pushing it behind the scenes.

Lu Bai pressed his temple.

Compared to death fighters, he felt this was more like the mayor’s handiwork.
