Volume 10 – Chapter 20: Pleb (Part 1)
Bureau Chief Jose’s nickname was “the Greedy Pig.”
Foreign media had repeatedly joked that the police in this country were dictators who were more violent and darker than those bloody gangs.
Bureau Chief Jose annotated this foreign media’s remarks well.
In fact, 13 years ago, Bureau Chief Jose wasn’t a greedy behemoth.
The country was willing to pay to improve its reputation. Many efforts and finance were dedicated to making people feel that this country was safe rather than how terribly it was reported in the media—of course, the effect was impressive.
As for whether this effect could continue forever, it was a matter of opinion.
As a matter of fact, Bureau Chief Jose enjoyed a secretary with a hot body the most. Having her kneeling under the desk and giving him the services he loved. Of course, they basically thought that because Bureau Chief Jose was too obese. Any vigorous activity might kill him.
Looking at the aggrieved secretary lady, everyone just pretended that they didn’t see it. A plaything, who was no longer favored, naturally had no value. As for why Jose was irritated, it was because of the frequent murders in the past few days.
Chairman was the big shot in this country. No wonder that Bureau Chief Jose was in such a bad mood at this time. Most likely, the recent homicides of important people disturbed the higher-ups of the country.

“We have arrived at the theater!”
I guess a big shot is coming here tonight.
In Caroline’s memory, this theater was used to host prominent national cultural activities. It would also hold programs such as “XX Music Festival” frequently.
Caroline shook her head.
Although she could instantly turn into an elegant lady to accustom to the guests’ needs, there was no change in her inside. Of course, when a man tore her clothes apart, the so-called grace wouldn’t matter.
So she had only one idea about the place that the upper-class nobles used to show off themselves: When would she have the money to buy this castle-like place to live in?
A high wall was built on one side of the highway, completely blocking the view there. Caroline looked at these long walls, low-spirited. Such a wall, of course, was not for defense.
Its only function was to block out the scene on the other side of the wall. Indeed, on the other side of the wall was the place where she grew up—the chaotic place.
Caroline sneered. Everyone on the bus had become accustomed to it, and it seemed irrelevant to them.
“We have arrived at the hospital!”
It took her more than half an hour to queue, but it was probably already afternoon when it was her turn. Caroline thought for a while, then walked straight to the inpatient department.
The main reason for coming to the hospital this time was for a detailed examination. She didn’t know if she had lost her fertility. Hence, she tried to understand more about her physical condition. Even if her fertility was taken away in the future, she could return afterward to at least know what went wrong.
As for going to the inpatient department, naturally, she was there for a visit.
It was even more unlikely that she went dumb and adopted a terminally ill child who needed to be under the hospital’s care to survive. Even if it did happen, Caroline felt that she would end up in hospital because of excessive medical expenses and give up.
For an unfamiliar person, Caroline believed that her soul hadn’t ascended to such greatness. She wouldn’t pick up the baggage for a moment of kindness, using her savings, and even took on debts.
However, Nya, who lived in the ward, looked haggard at this time. Her body was dry, and much of her hair fell out. She looked like an old woman in her sixties.
Her situation was complicated. They said that she had undergone many abortions and finally caused uterine disease, which evolved to cancer later on. In addition, because of not taking care of her body, she had symptoms of liver cirrhosis. It seemed that even her body’s immune system was also experiencing problems.
She was now basically using her life savings, waiting for her death in this hospital.
