I snagged a bargain in a melodramatic novel and became incredibly wealthy!

Chapter 120 Zhang Ye

After leaving the police station, Caiyi felt completely exhausted and on the verge of collapse.

Caiyi felt like he could be lying on the ground at any moment.

Despite her exhaustion, she randomly found a hotel near the police station, booked a room, and went straight to sleep.

Winter was gradually approaching, and the biting wind, coupled with swimming in the icy river, unsurprisingly caused Caiyi to develop a high fever. He lay in a daze on the hotel bed for two days, finally being awakened by hunger.

With difficulty, Caiyi picked up her phone and ordered a cold medicine and some light porridge.

She hadn't been sick for three years, and this illness made her feel like her body was about to give out.

Cai Yi shook his heavy head, concluding that Cheng Xin's body was too weak and had nothing to do with her.

The delivery arrived quickly, and they even kindly brought it to my room door.

She opened the cold medicine, mixed it with mineral water, and drank it all in one gulp. Don't ask her why she didn't boil water; getting up to pick up takeout at the door is already the limit for her these days.

After taking the medicine, Caiyi managed to drink two bowls of porridge before falling into a deep sleep again.

Time slipped by quietly, and two more days passed.

Caiyi suddenly felt a sharp pain in his sleep and woke up covered in sweat.

She weakly lifted the sheet, and the scene before her was exactly as she expected: the white sheet was stained with blood.

Caiyi's originally rosy skin turned as pale as paper.

Cheng Xin experiences unbearable pain every time she has her period, as if she's about to ascend to heaven.

Caiyi endured this pain for the first two months, and she didn't know how Chengxin managed to keep going; it was just too painful.

Even the injuries sustained during three years of missions are less than a tenth of what I feel now.

With great difficulty, Cai Yi dragged his weak body to the washroom, then called the hotel to ask for help and transferred 500 yuan as payment.

Fortunately, the WeChat account I'm using now is my own, and there's still some money in it. Otherwise, with only 50,000 yuan in cash, I probably would have spent it all long ago and would be worrying about money.

Caiyi gradually got used to the pain, but still felt weak all over and collapsed on the bed.

She felt that her heart had become unusually vulnerable at this moment.

It's strange how people become so vulnerable when they're sick.

She held her phone, scrolling through her contacts, and finally sighed helplessly before putting the phone down.

Everyone is busy, let's wait a while.

Caiyi quietly picked up the food that the hotel receptionist had brought her from the table. She found that it was all light and bland, which made her feel warm and cozy.

Food can heal the soul, and it can heal her now.

Ding Dong!

A clear voice sounded.

Cai Yi picked up her phone from the bedside table; it was a message from Xu Qingming.

A character similar to the protagonist handed over an important item, which they needed to thoroughly investigate and understand the situation, but for various reasons, they were unable to leave.

Caiyi checked the address and found that it wasn't too far from where he was now; he could get there in about an hour.

So she replied to Xu Qingming with an "OK" emoji, indicating that she would go to investigate when she had time.

Xu Qingming couldn't help but laugh when he saw the meme, and then continued to immerse himself in his busy work.

Caiyi put away her phone, touched her numb stomach that had become accustomed to the pain, and was relieved that it no longer affected her movements.

She got up and changed into the clothes that the hotel receptionist had thoughtfully prepared for her, and transferred the cost of the clothes to the receptionist when she checked out.

Then, she left the hotel, used her GPS to locate herself, and started hailing a taxi to head to the mission location.

after an hour.

Cai Yi looked up at the police station sign, his expression a mix of emotions, and muttered to himself: I seem to have been to the police station several times in the past few days.

Unsuspecting people might think she commits crimes every day, and that going to the police station is like coming home to her, where she comes every day to drink tea and chat.

Cai Yi sighed helplessly and walked into the police station.

She then picked up her phone and made a call. Shortly after, a receptionist came over.

Cai Yi handed the temporary work certificate to the receptionist, who took it and examined it carefully, even touching the stamp on it to confirm its authenticity before returning it to Cai Yi.

"We've finally waited for you, Miss Cai. Please come this way!"

The receptionist spoke warmly, but did not directly mention Cai Yi's specific identity, choosing instead to keep it confidential.

After all, it's still important to protect personal privacy and identity information when in front of outsiders.

Especially those talents whose identities must be kept secret.

Furthermore, this young woman's ability to hold such a high position is clearly remarkable, and she must be carefully protected to prevent her from being discovered by those with ulterior motives.

As the saying goes, "The tallest tree in the forest is the first to be felled by the wind," and this is not just an empty phrase.

Caiyi followed the receptionist into a small, dark room, where a man with an arrogant expression sat.

Cai Yi was taken aback.

This person was none other than Zhang Ye, an acquaintance from the "Dating Appointment" live broadcast program.

Caiyi rubbed his temples, feeling as if a swarm of bees was buzzing in his head.

Machismo?

Is this also a manifestation of epilepsy?

Cheng Xin's body conveyed a strong feeling, clearly telling Cai Yi that the person in front of him was also one of the main characters in the story.

However... Caiyi felt somewhat confused and uneasy.

According to the original plot, there shouldn't be so many new main characters at this point.

These suddenly appearing characters, whose names were never mentioned in the plot, made Caiyi begin to have some doubts about this world.

Is the world consciousness orchestrating an even grander scheme?

Caiyi took a deep breath, trying to clear his mind of all sorts of thoughts.

She calmed down, then pulled out a chair, sat down in front of Zhang Ye, and stared intently at him, asking, "Zhang Ye, tell me, what exactly are you going to hand over?"

Zhang Ye stared wide-eyed at Cai Yi in disbelief, then looked at the policeman beside him and said, "You look like such a delicate woman, and you're actually the leader of this bunch of rude cops! My God, you've completely disgraced us men!"

"He can't even compare to a woman!"

As he spoke, he shook his head in anguish, as if he had witnessed something unbelievable.

The police officers standing ramrod straight nearby remained silent, unaffected by his words.

Cai Yi tapped the table: "They're already very good at standing here, why should they compare themselves to me?"

"If we really have to compare, there will always be people in this world who are better than you..."

As Caiyi was talking, she suddenly realized that she really did have a fever, and her mind was getting muddled.

What the hell am I talking about!

Cai Yi tapped the table again and said to Zhang Ye, "Zhang Ye, stop talking nonsense, what do you need to hand over?"
