When Simon Chen revealed the name of the city to be Topolous, Tie Longkun was completely astonished.
"Holy smokes, you discover a new landmark? That's amazing." Tie Longkun's eyes were sparkling as he gave a thumbs up to him.
"Shh, don't speak so loudly. This information is still hidden from the public." Simon Chen hurriedly covered Tie Longkun's rowdy mouth to prevent him from speaking further. It would have been disastrous if his loud tone accidentally slipped and someone else heard this big news.
Meanwhile, Lei Zhen might not have shown any expression on the surface, but deep down, he was in quite a shock to hear more undiscovered lands being unveiled.
'It seems like the Magnolia world is expanding at a faster rate than any player could have imagined.' He thought to himself.
"Anyway, I'm planning on exploring more of it once I'm done with my studies and work shift." Simon Chen then said, his body trembling slightly in excitement. An unknown landmark, ready for him to explore was a temptation to every Magnolia player.
"You shouldn't do it alone and should have someone to be there to assist you." Tie Longkun suddenly said, patting his chest in the meantime, almost as if he couldn't have been more obvious that he wanted in on the exploration.
"Hmm, I don't know about that… I have a lot of work to do such as restocking and going through the computer to check the shipping details." Simon Chen suddenly yawned and said exhaustively.
"I'll do it on your behalf. It is the duty of the senior to help out his junior." Tie Longkun smirked and wrapped his arm around Simon Chen's shoulders.
"How could I, the senior, overwork his fellow junior? That's unacceptable." He added.
"Then I'll gladly thank my dear senior for his graciousness." Simon Chen smiled, clearly agreeing to this deal exchange.
"What about you, Lei Zhen? If you want to join me, then I'll simply let you in free of charge."
"What? How could you have me do all the work, but Lei Zhen doesn't have to do anything?"
Simon Chen shrugged his shoulders when confronted by Tie Longkun. "Lei Zhen is just built differently compared to you, I guess."
"I appreciate the goodwill, but I'm still quite low-level to be advancing anywhere near a high-level city. Not to mention, I'm going to be attending an event so I won't have the time to join you." Lei Zhen apologized and gave his reason.
"I understand, Lei Zhen. Unlike Tie Longkun who is always focusing on fighting, we have a real life." Simon Chen nodded his head and didn't mind Lei Zhen rejecting him.
Meanwhile, Tie Longkun felt his heart ache when his fellow two co-workers were practically ganging up together to bully him.
'This must be a punishment for being a kind senior. The next time Manager Xu Gen hires another person, I would make sure to train them harshly and let them know who's the real boss.' Tie Longkun swore inwardly, his eyes seemingly showing a pit of fire that was burning with passion.
Sometime later, Lei Zhen stood up and began to change back to his normal clothes as he bid farewell to Tie Longkun and Simon Chen.
"Well, that's the end of my shift, so I'll see you all next week." Lei Zhen waved his hand.
"Yep, we'll see you next week." Tie Longkun laughed, his attention still on Simon Chen.
"I'll send you the details in our group chat so that you won't feel left out." Simon Chen added, waving his hand.
They might not have each other added as friends in Magnolia, but at the very least, they had a private group chat. Hence, Lei Zhen calmly nodded his head and left the convenience store.
He was going to use this as an opportunity to visit his sister and catch up with the doctor regarding his sister's current condition.
In one of the hospital office rooms, Lei Zhen was sitting across from a middle-aged woman who was calmly explaining the medical situation from her computer.
The middle-aged woman didn't seem old at all as there were barely any wrinkles on her face.
In fact, she had the look of a mature beauty that kept her skin condition at the top. She was clad in the normal white cloak that most doctors would be wearing and was wearing high heels along with silky black pantyhose.
She was one of the few rarities at this time and age that cared for her patients and not cared about the money being earned, Samantha.
pαndα`noνɐ1--сoМ "Lei Zhen, I'm not sure if you have heard of this, but there's a new invention of a Nutrient Solution. And it has been tested on some patients previously that it might help a body's metabolism to regain their health." Samantha said.
Meanwhile, Lei Zhen was astonished at first before showing an excited look when he finally comprehended doctor Samantha's words.
"Doctor Samantha, does that mean my sister has a chance of full recovery if we equip her with the new Nutrient Solution?" Lei Zhen asked excitedly, his body could barely maintain composure as it was trembling slightly.
To be able to hear something of his sister being able to make a full recovery after such a long time was not something he could keep his composure.
Naturally, Samantha understood what Lei Zhen was currently feeling as she smiled slightly.
"Lei Zhen, you could be considered my student since you attended my lecture at college. And although I don't know how someone with your skills failed the test to become an official doctor, I'm sure you know I wouldn't be speaking nonsense regarding a patient's recovery, right?" She said calmly.
Lei Zhen nodded his head.
"Sorry about my loss of composure, Doctor Samantha." He then apologized for his excitement. "But can you equip her with the new Nutrient Solution? Money is not a problem at all."
Samantha remained silent for a few seconds before revealing something to him. "Money isn't the problem here, Lei Zhen. The new invention of the Nutrient Solution is sought highly by those in higher positions. I'm telling you now because of your previous identity so that you might be able to pull some connections to obtain the new Nutrient Solution on your own."
