I can rewind time to prevent death-Chapter 697 - 417 Perception of Nearby Strangenesses_2

Chapter 697: Chapter 417: Perception of Nearby Strangenesses_2 Chapter 697: Chapter 417: Perception of Nearby Strangenesses_2 Charlie shrugged and said, “There normally would be a nursing fee, but today Nurse Elsa took a day off. Look at me, personally administering your medication and dressing your wound.”

He made a helpless expression, washing his hands while saying, “I’ll go check out with you.”

Yan Junze knew just from the way the guy shrugged that the nursing fee wouldn’t be cheaper than when Nurse Elsa took care of him.

After spending 237 dollars, Yan Junze walked out of Charlie’s clinic, carrying a paper bag with shoes inside while his right ankle was fitted with a plastic medical disinfection boot—an additional purchase.

Doctor Charlie even tried to sell him a pair of crutches that had just arrived, priced at only 188, but Yan Junze felt those crutches were probably left behind by a previous patient who had recovered, so he refused.

However, the effect of this one-time, convenient immobilizer was quite good. Not only did it provide support, but it also allowed Yan Junze to walk with some weight on that foot without pain, avoiding a severe limp.

When he left, the drizzle had stopped. He hailed a taxi, and upon getting in, he asked the driver, “Please recommend a comfortable hotel in the north of the city, thank you.”

The driver nodded, took less than three minutes, during which he even waited for a red light, then pointed to a pale red building on the right after turning the corner and said, “Right here, the Porfi Hotel.”

Yan Junze: “…”

“Last time my uncle’s neighbor’s aunt’s daughter’s boyfriend came to Saint Gala City, I recommended this place to him,” the driver continued.

Yan Junze: “…”

He began to seriously doubt whether this guy and Zhou Dali were half-brothers, separated for many years.

After paying the full fare, he slowly got out of the car and into the hotel, booked a single room, and once inside, he just lay down and didn’t feel like getting up again.

It had been non-stop Rewinds, one Great Rewind after another, leaving him utterly exhausted. He had long wanted to get a good sleep.

Soon after lying in bed, he fell asleep and slept for five hours, waking to find that it had gotten completely dark outside.

He called the front desk and ordered a dinner to be delivered to his room.

Yan Junze planned to stay here for the next couple of days, going nowhere for the time being until his foot healed sufficiently and his energy points recovered a bit, then he would begin to complete his tasks.

In the meantime, he got online to familiarize himself with the geography of Saint Gala City, as well as any rumors of “strangenesses” taking place.

Later, he would go out directly to harvest these, complete the energy collection as quickly as possible, and then meet with Jacob, who was impervious to knives and guns, impervious to water and fire.

Before long, a male attendant rang the doorbell, and Yan Junze opened the door.

The attendant pushed in a small food cart, set up his meal, utensils, and napkins, then prepared to leave.

Yan Junze asked, “Could you buy me a few items of clothing, please?”

The male attendant was taken aback but then nodded: “Please wait a moment, sir, I’ll be right back with a tape measure.”

With that, he left with the food cart.

Yan Junze sat down and took a bite of the steak he had ordered, finding it quite tasty.

Before he was halfway through, the attendant knocked on the door, which was ajar. After Yan Junze’s response, he entered with a tape measure.

Yan Junze stood up, and the attendant took his measurements, shoulder width, arm length, waist, and asked, “Would you like a suit, or…?”

“No need for suits. Just comfortable clothes in gray and black shades. And,” Yan Junze added, “I need to buy underwear and socks, too.”

He took out 1500 dollars from his backpack and handed it to the attendant, “Keep it under 1500.”

The attendant accepted the money, pulled out a stack of receipts from his pocket, wrote one on the spot for Yan Junze, and promised to deliver by the next afternoon at the latest before leaving the room with polite efficiency.

Yan Junze quickly finished his steak, pressed the service bell, and another attendant came to clear the dish.

With his foot bandaged and unable to bathe, Yan Junze could only use the computer in the room to look up information about the strangenesses in Saint Gala City.

After a while, he found that in terms of weird incidents, apart from the Half Moon Association’s jurisdiction, there was also a group of Exorcists called the Ressa Organization.

The Ressa Organization seemed to be small, mentioned only once in the news, not enough to catch Half Moon Association’s attention.

Which means the organization hadn’t even reached the point of being absorbed by the Half Moon Association.

Of course, this could also be intentional to avoid expansion, as not everyone agrees with the ethos of the Half Moon Association.

Yan Junze was clearly aware that even within the Half Moon Association itself, the Chairman and the Vice Chairman harbored dissenting opinions, the group rife with internal contradictions.

For an organization with such complex internal structures and loosely managed territories, full unity was an impossibility.

After browsing the internet for half the day, as it approached midnight, Yan Junze stood up, walked to the window, and looked out at the scenery.

At moments like this, his thoughts would inexplicably drift to Xiang Er standing in front of a window, her gaze flickering rapidly in the night scene outside, as if searching for a view that could offer her soul some peace.

Yan Junze knew that Xiang Er always lacked a sense of security.

Not only her, but Ku Zai lacked it too.

Their lack of security, tied to their past experiences, was not unrelated.
