Ethan was unsure how he had arrived at the hospital. Everything that had just happened in his mind was truly incredible. A device had somehow entered his head and operated a system within it.
However, the most crucial aspect is that this machine can transmit a vast amount of knowledge Ethan had never read before directly into his brain.This device also possesses the unique functionality of analyzing the physical condition of others by scanning them multi-dimensionally. It can discern feelings and anguishing personality features by examining facial expressions and neural activity.Simultaneously, it can predict situations and specific objects through its analyzed data. Right now, Ethan's gaze falls upon a young woman walking down the street. He can see her emotional state and physical condition in remarkable detail.Tazanna Smith: 21 years oldGender: FemaleEmotional Index: 11 (negative)Identifying features: A red mole under the left corner of her right eye, dark brown eyes, straight nose.Bust: 96Waist: 59Hips: 96Health Status: Suffers from a mysterious illness, poor health, mental exhaustion, and life expectancy of no more than one year.Upon seeing this girl's stats, Ethan is momentarily taken aback. Tazanna also notices the strange man intently staring at her."What are you looking at? Do you want me to tear out your dog eyes and rub them under my feet?"Ethan was just curious and didn't expect her sudden outburst. Momentarily flustered, he scratches his head and quickly walks away. Tazanna initially wanted to confront Ethan, but his swift departure left her fuming and muttering: "You better hope I never see you again, or I won't let you off so easily!"Ethan hadn't anticipated that simply glancing at a passerby's stats would earn him a girl's grudge. He would have been even more surprised if he knew she was the daughter of Heyday Corporation's chairman, who was about to take over the shopping mall where he and his wife worked.But before he could ponder further, the system's voice chimed in, seemingly understanding everything he didn't: "Apart from the standard statistics, I can also scan a target's future. However, to unlock this feature, you must complete a mission."Ethan wanted to respond, but he had arrived at the hospital room and decided to set aside the Artificial Super Intelligence system.At this moment, Ethan focused on his mother-in-law, who talked intimately with a young man outside the hospital corridor. Although he didn't know who the man was, his mother-in-law's friendly demeanor and attentive appearance made Ethan somewhat suspicious."Mom, I'm here!"Ethan had just arrived when the conversation between Mabel and the young man ended. As soon as she saw Ethan appear, Mabel's attitude changed completely, her eyes glaring and her tone extremely harsh."Well, well, at last, you've finally arrived!? I thought you didn't care about this family at all. Your father-in-law had an accident and is waiting for surgery. Your wife, Melanie, also had an accident. And yet, the precious son-in-law of this family is more irresponsible than a stranger. What are you doing here now?"Mabel's voice grew louder and louder. Ethan didn't dare to argue and could only lower his head and apologize."I'm sorry, Mom!""Sorry? What good is your sorry? Where's the hospital fee? Does sorry produce money? If you can't find the money, don't call me Mom or even bother seeing Melanie.""Mom!!!"Ethan didn't expect his mother-in-law to say such things. Usually, Mabel would scold him but not with such intensity. At this point, the young man standing next to Mabel suddenly spoke up."Aunt, please don't get angry and affect your health. I've already taken care of the hospital fees for Uncle. The doctor said that after the consultation, they'd proceed with the surgery for him. So, Aunt, you don't need to worry!"Ethan initially should have paid more attention to this man. However, after hearing him speak intimately with his mother-in-law, he couldn't help but frown."Who is this...?"Before Ethan could finish asking, a nurse from the hospital approached."Excuse me, is anyone here a relative of patient Bahjat Edwards?"Hearing the nurse call her husband's name, Mabel hurriedly rushed over."It's me, and it's me! I'm wife of Bahjat Edwards!"The nurse glanced at Mabel and then continued to shout."The hospital is currently short on blood. Which of Mr. Bahjat's relatives has the same blood type as him?"At this moment, Mabel looked extremely worried. She then glanced at Ethan, whose face had turned pale."What are you standing there for? Don't you and he has the same blood type? Hurry up and follow the nurse to donate blood for your father-in-law!"Hearing his mother-in-law's command, although Ethan felt unwell, he still followed the nurse."Nurse, I have the same blood type as Mr. Bahjat. I'll come with you!"The nurse looked at Ethan for a moment and wanted to remind him of his health condition. However, Mabel urged her."Nurse, you don't need to worry about him. Normally, his health is excellent, much better than others. Besides, he doesn't have anything to do all day, just eat and sleep, so giving a little blood is nothing. My husband's life is more important!"The nurse initially wanted to refuse, but the hospital was short on blood. Seeing the nurse hesitate, Ethan patted his chest and confidently said."Nurse, please rest assured, my health is genuinely excellent!"The nurse had no other choice but to nod in agreement."Alright, please follow me!"As soon as Ethan left, Mabel's attitude toward the young man beside her changed again, becoming extraordinarily attentive and caring: "Don't pay any attention to that useless guy! If it hadn't been for your sudden departure years ago, my daughter Melanie wouldn't have married such a worthless man!"Hearing Mabel's words, the young man's face displayed a contemptuous smile, revealing a hint of cruelty in his eyes.After having his blood drawn, Ethan felt somewhat unsteady on his feet. In truth, after the AI Super Intelligence invaded his body, Ethan seemed to be suffering from anemia. After giving blood to his father-in-law, Ethan felt weak, and his face turned pale. However, he had no intention of staying in the infirmary, he wanted to meet on his wife."Sir, your health doesn't seem to be in good shape. It's best if you rest here for a while, then drink some milk and sugar water to stabilize your body." the nurse advised Ethan after noticing his condition. Despite her warning, Ethan left, heading towards the surgery department with a lonely figure."Thanks to you, Toshan, my husband can have his surgery in time, unlike my useless son-in-law, who can't handle even the slightest task. If it weren't for you leaving suddenly to study abroad, leaving Melanie alone in the country, things wouldn't have turned out like this now..."Mabel's voice echoed incessantly in Melanie's hospital room, expressing her dissatisfaction with her son-in-law. Lying in bed, Melanie felt uncomfortable hearing her mother bring up the past: "Mom, it's over. Please don't mention it again!""Don't you think I'm trying to do what's best for you? Even though you're married now, Toshan still cares for you and helps with your father's medical expenses. That's unlike that your useless husband, who can't even care for you properly. We don't know if he can provide enough blood for your father's surgery!"Ethan entered, catching every word, but he didn't react. Instead, he silently continued inside.Upon seeing Ethan, Mabel couldn't help but scoff, turning her gaze away as if looking at him any longer would infuriate her."Don't worry, Mom. I've already provided enough blood for Dad. The doctor said that his surgery could proceed as planned." Ethan reassured her, despite his mother-in-law's apparent aversion.However, Mabel simply ignored him, intentionally turning to look at Toshan instead. It was only now that Ethan had a chance to observe the man: dressed in a vest and leather shoes, he exuded an air of sophistication and success, truly the epitome of an accomplished man."Toshan, you've heard as well. Melanie's father will have his surgery tonight. Thanks to you, the operation can proceed smoothly!"As Mabel conversed with the man named Toshan, her beaming expression was entirely different from the one she wore when speaking with her son-in-law, Ethan. This made Ethan feel slightly uncomfortable.Toshan, for his part, responded to Mabel with a smile: "Auntie, it's my responsibility to help out. Melanie and I are not strangers; I'm familiar with your family. I'm no longer planning to go abroad and w
When he woke up, Ethan was lying in a hospital room with a female nurse diligently taking notes: "May I ask, what time is it now?" With his weak, hoarse voice, Ethan asked the nurse. At that moment, the nurse seemed startled and hurriedly turned to look at him, her face showing a layer of red blush, embarrassed."Oh, you're awake now? I warned you earlier, but you didn't listen. How do you feel now? Are you much better?" As if trying to avoid her embarrassment, the nurse quickly hid the paper behind her back and incessantly inquired about Ethan's health. Ethan didn't notice the nurse's confusion; instead, he looked around at the walls, then asked a seemingly unrelated question: "How long have I been here? Who brought me here?"Whether Ethan was dizzy from blood loss or troubled by something in his heart was unclear. At that moment, there was no light in his eyes, only a layer of hazy, dark, and desperate mist."You've been here for over an hour. A man named Toshan brought you here e
"Jump now. If you want to jump, why don't you?""You... you... you can't come here... I... I'll jump!"As Ethan drew closer, the girl became increasingly agitated. In a split second, she stepped back, lost her footing, and nearly fell."Ah!!! Help me!!!"At this point, the girl's scream was so high-pitched that even Ethan, standing more than ten paces away, had to cover his ears."What are you yelling for? Haven't you fallen into the river yet? And, if you wanted to commit suicide, why are you so afraid of dying?"Hearing Ethan's sarcastic tone, the girl no longer wanted to end her life. Instead, she was filled with resentment and continued to scream."You're despicable, you wretched man! If something happens to me, you're the murderer who killed me! Even as a ghost, I won't leave you alone!"As the girl continued to shriek, onlookers driving by cast suspicious glances. Ethan sighed, hurried over, grabbed the girl's hand clutching the railing, and shouted."Come up here. Stop yelling
"Don't get the wrong idea; I just wanted to repay you for saving me earlier!"While fleeing, Tazanna explained to Ethan as they ran side by side. However, Ethan's gaze remained fixed on her back, his eyes filled with complex emotions.Until this moment, he finally remembered that this girl was the same one he had met in front of the hospital. At that time, he was scolded by her. Unexpectedly, they would meet again now."Huh, what are you staring at? Do you believe that I can gouge out your eyes and rub them under my feet?"Feeling Ethan's gaze on her, Tazanna couldn't help but speak sarcastically."Ha ha ha!"But as soon as Ethan heard her familiar tone, he couldn't help but burst into laughter. Tazanna seemed to remember their previous encounter at the hospital and angrily kicked Ethan."Oh...!"Whether intentionally or accidentally, her kick precisely hit Ethan's lower body, instantly stopping his laughter. He widened his eyes, turned pale, stared at Tazanna, and continuously clutch
Witnessing the nurse shake her head and sigh, Ethan's heart pounded. However, upon hearing Tazanna's situation wasn't too dire, he breathed a small sigh of relief.Although they had just met and Tazanna had caused him to be misunderstood and beaten by thugs, Ethan couldn't help but hope she would pull through this ordeal as he wanted to ask more about her condition.A group of bodyguards in black vests quickly approached the operating room. Leading them was a middle-aged man with a stern, cold expression.Seeing these imposing individuals rush in, Ethan couldn't help but worry about their identities. However, it didn't take long for the angry voice of the leading man to address the two bodyguards next to him."What on earth happened? Why was my daughter stabbed and hospitalized?"The man's voice wasn't loud but carried an authority that left no room for defiance, startling the two bodyguards. One of them hurriedly began to explain."Boss, the situation was completely unexpected. We ne
Initially, saving someone's life shouldn't come with the expectation of gratitude. However, after witnessing the man's swift change of demeanor, faster than the flip of a hand, Ethan couldn't help but feel uneasy.Of course, he didn't save Tazanna for money or any favor from this man. At the very least, the man should have shown some sincerity and offered thanks for saving his daughter. Instead, how he treated Ethan differed significantly from how he had just treated the hospital doctor.Nonetheless, Ethan didn't harbor any ill intentions, so he ignored Wynstan's threatening words and responded indifferently: "I just happened to come across your daughter on the street. If you think I saved her for some ulterior motive, let me be frank – not everyone in this world is as wicked as you imagine. While I may be poor in wealth, I'm not poor in morals like you. Excuse me, and I have to go now."After saying this, Ethan resolutely turned and left, disregarding Wynstan's furious gaze.At this
However, no matter how Mabel tried to persuade her, Melanie stubbornly refused to put the knife down. In her anger, the knife was even pressed closer to her throat, leaving a cut that caused blood to drip onto the blade.Finally, Ethan could no longer hold back and spoke up."Melanie, I know you never loved me, and our marriage was just a misunderstanding. Now that you no longer want to be with me, I've given you freedom. What are you still doing this for?""Who told you I don't love you? Who told you I wanted to marry someone else? Why are you treating me like this? Do you know how much my child and I need you?"In her uncontrollable fury, Melanie screamed, leaving everyone present dumbfounded."Your child and you?"However, what caught Ethan's attention the most was this statement. He hurriedly rushed over, grabbed the knife in Melanie's hand, and anxiously asked: "Do you mean you're pregnant with my child?""I don't have a child with you, so whose could it be?""No, I mean... I mea
"Are you all family members of the patient Bahjat Edwards in emergency room number seven? Mr. Bahjat has been taken to the intensive care unit. Our hospital deeply regrets having to inform you that his condition is beyond saving. We hope you can take the time to see him one last time!"A hospital nurse entered the room and gave the news to everyone. The atmosphere suddenly turned icy and suffocating.Immediately after, Mabel's voice trembled."How could this happen? How could this be? Didn't you say that surgery would save him? Why couldn't you save him? Why couldn't you save him?"The louder Mabel spoke, the more her voice echoed through the hospital corridor. At this point, Melanie completely collapsed, falling from the bed and fainting.Fortunately, Ethan quickly caught her before she hit the edge of the bed.Meanwhile, Toshan's expression was very gloomy, as if deep in thought.At that moment, only Ethan remained calm. He looked at the nurse and softly said,"Nurse, please help me
