You Are Deep in The Stars

Chapter 16 - The Past of the Superpower Hospital I



When the two of them returned home, Aunt Li was preparing meals in the kitchen. The midday sun penetrated through the window, making every dish have its own beauty effect and look extremely tempting.

“Why is the living room so quiet?” Aunt Li asked while busy.

“They are talking about things upstairs.” Bai Xi took a small bowl and filled himself with soup.

“Is Mr. Han complaining?” Aunt Li lowered her voice.

“No,” Bai Xi smiled, “They were talking about something… very interesting.”

.

The study was very quiet, and after a long time, Bai Boyang was heard sighing deeply.

“Where’s Xiao Bai?” Mrs. Bai asked, “How is his mood?”

“He was a little panicked at first, but now he has calmed down completely.” Han Zhuo said, “And he doesn’t reject his own powers.”

“I’m still worried.” Mrs. Bai held her hands and said anxiously, “You really can’t take Xiao Bai abroad? No matter where you go, as long as you can stay away from those dangerous people.”

“But escaping is useless.” Han Zhuo shook his head, “And Xiao Bai’s physique is very special. I think the people in the underground warehouse won’t give up easily.”

The light in Mrs. Bai’s eyes dimmed.

Bai Xi’s birthplace was a public hospital. The nurses working there welcomed countless new lives every day and were not surprised by everything. Therefore, when faced with Mr. Bai’s panic “My wife is giving birth prematurely”, they just calmly comforted him.

After a few words, they turned around and skillfully wrapped a pink bracelet on the tender newborn baby, wrote the word “Xiao Bai” on it, and finally put the baby comfortably into the incubator.

There were no smartphones at that time, so Bai Boyang would go and see him through the glass every day, and then come back and describe to his wife, saying that today his son opened his eyes and learned to chew his fingers.

Everything was warm and full of hope, until one day a week later, the nurse working the night shift suddenly discovered with horror that the baby, who was supposed to be kept in the incubator, was taken out by someone unknown, left on the window sill in the corridor, the cold wind blew his whole-body purple, and his cry was as feeble as a kitten.

When the hospital security arrived after hearing the news, someone else let out a small exclamation – the originally strong incubator was deformed, as if someone twisted it and then torn out a long dent. There was charred handprints all over the sheets, floor and walls. It looked more like the little baby stepped on the fire and slowly climbed to the window.

The matter was so unbelievable that Bai Boyang tried every means and could only found one clue from a cleaner. Around five o’clock that afternoon, there was a homeless man who seemed to be in a trance and had been in the corridor for ten minutes.

The era without camera surveillance was both a bad thing and a good thing. Although no one could figure out what happened, it also helped Bai Boyang blame everything on the trafficker problems. In the end, the matter was covered up quietly, and Bai Boyang also sold his property as quickly as possible and moved to another city with his wife and child.

As time passed, although Bai Boyang seemed to have forgotten the incident, secretly he never gave up investigating the truth. As the time went on, he finally confirmed one thing with shock, there was people with super powers in this world. Although they tried their best to hide among ordinary people, they still inevitably revealed some clues, such as conjuring flames out of thin air, talking to animals, sprinting hundreds of meters away, catching someone who accidentally jumped from upstairs.

The video that went viral on the Internet was regarded by most people as a close-up magic trick, or simply dismissed as media hype. It did not cause large-scale panic or suspicion. At most, it was regarded as an after-dinner tale. But Bai Boyang knew among those incredible people, they really were a part – or a large part – of special people with amazing power.

Fortunately, Bai Xi’s growth had been going smoothly, so smoothly that even Mrs. Bai began to wonder if it was a trafficker in the hospital who tried his best to burn the incubator and create a horrific scene just to steal the baby. And her son was an ordinary person from beginning to end.

However, this kind of luck did not last long. When Bai Xi was in his senior year, he started to complain again and again, saying that people seemed to be following him a lot recently. He always felt like there was people behind him in school, canteens, playgrounds, companies, and even in parks. There was a pair of creepy eyes spying on him.

So, the Bai family’s parents began to worry again. They first spent a lot of money to hire a professional bodyguard, but the other party resigned and left after a month, even after paying high liquidated damages. At the same time, Bai Boyang also found out about the “underground warehouse”. He actually didn’t know what it was, but he was sure that this underground organization was definitely the biggest threat to people with superpowers, and the only one who could threaten this underground warehouse was a man named Han Zhuo.

In fact, what Mr. Han told Bai Xi before was half correct. He and the Bai family’s parents did meet on an island, but that was not a pure coincidence. Bai Boyang did personally go to invite Han Zhuo for a meeting after he found out about Han Zhuo, but he didn’t expect to encounter a small-scale commotion when he landed ashore – it was precisely because of this gangster riot that Bai Boyang saw Han Zhuo’s mobility with his own eyes. He was agile, quick, calm, calm and taciturn. He was definitely the best bodyguard in the world.
