A Girl Who Wants to Be a Beneficial Person to Society

Chapter 33

Xiao Qi and Auntie walked back to the hospital.

Today, after swimming and walking, they had already taken nearly 20,000 steps.

Looking at the money on the interface, it had increased by almost 10,000.

There was so much money that Xiao Qi didn't even know how she spent it. At first, she would remember even the decimal places, but now she was starting to forget.

Spending money is really nice, especially when it's spent wisely.

Like today, after learning how to swim, Xiao Qi felt that the sky was particularly blue, the sunlight was especially beautiful, and the buses on the road looked especially nice.

The ice cream cone was also unusually sweet.

The two arrived at the hospital, and Xiao Qi planned to continue studying English.

Auntie Su Simei couldn't sit still either and went for a walk in the ward.

She was in a good mood and felt like she had lost weight. She felt more confident, and even the old patients greeted her.

Even the usually strict head nurse seemed to have a pleasant expression today.

Su Simei was quite happy.

Meanwhile, Xiao Qi took off her glasses and looked at herself in the mirror.

She grinned and blinked.

Without glasses, she felt like she looked different, and it took some getting used to.

She had been wearing glasses since primary school because she loved reading even back then. Her dad bought her many books, and she would often fall asleep while reading, which caused her eyesight to worsen.

In primary school, Xiao Qi, with her glasses on, was often made fun of by the villagers for being a "four-eyed frog."

When she went to middle school and high school outside the village, fewer people called her by that nickname.

After wearing glasses for a long time, suddenly not wearing them made Xiao Qi feel a bit uncomfortable.

But not wearing glasses was convenient for running and playing ball. Otherwise, while running, she would have to keep adjusting her glasses, afraid that they would fall to the ground.

She stood in front of the mirror and rubbed her face for a while before starting to read.

However, swimming was quite exhausting, and after reading for a while, she didn't even realize when she moved to the bed and fell asleep.

When she woke up, Auntie called her for dinner.

She had a particularly sweet sleep.

Xiao Qi felt really good after exercising. After dinner, she and Auntie divided the chores, with Auntie tidying up the room and Xiao Qi washing the dishes.

After finishing their meal, she took her English book and went to the neighboring school to study.

Auntie's dormitory was too small, and the soundproofing was average, so it wasn't suitable for reciting loudly. But on the school playground, it didn't matter. Even if she shouted, she doubted anyone would care.

She walked and recited loudly at the same time. After walking for an hour and forty minutes, she finally finished the third volume of the "New Concept" book.

She couldn't believe it. Her learning efficiency was really fast, thanks to the memory and language proficiency buffs. The remaining time for these two buffs was limited, so they constantly urged her to proactively study.

She walked back while holding the book and noticed that there were still many people in the good parts of the playground. It was hot, and everyone didn't want to go back early.

Xiao Qi walked out with the book and, out of habit, pushed her glasses up, only to realize that she wasn't wearing them.

She had forgotten that she didn't need to wear glasses anymore, and she could see the playground quite clearly.

She looked left, right, up, and down... The world suddenly became much clearer, even at night.

The streetlights no longer had a halo of orange light around them.

Observing the passersby on the roadside, their actions became clear. Not far away, one person was reaching into another person's pocket... Holy crap... it's a thief.

Su Xiaoqi's mind raced, and she immediately chased after them.

"Thief!" she shouted loudly.

She wasn't particularly fast and struggled to meet the minimum requirements during physical education classes. Her teacher barely passed her due to her thin and weak physique.

But it was ingrained in her from a young age to instinctively intervene in such situations. The mindset of a rural girl was to shout, believing that others would run faster than her, thus catching the thief first.

Because there were a few people playing ball ahead, and they were all tall and strong.

There was no way she could have her turn.

However, for some unknown reason, this time she started running and felt like the thief was strangely slowing down. After running for a short while, she actually caught up with the thief.

Oh my god, they were just a hand's distance away, too close.

With a brave face, Xiao Qi reached out and grabbed the thief.

And then she caught a thief who was much bigger than her.

Is it too late to let go now?

Why did she have such an impulsive act?!

She remembered her father's words, "When you encounter danger, the first thing you must do is protect yourself."

But she only managed to grab the thief with one hand, and the thief surprisingly didn't break free.

"Help, help! Let go! I only took a crappy phone, is it worth it, is it?!"

At this moment, the surrounding people finally gathered around.

Some were holding their phones, seemingly recording videos from the beginning.

Su Xiaoqi was speechless.

She took back her phone and handed it to the person who had just been stolen from. She remembered that the person was wearing green pants and was still watching the spectacle.

"Miss, here's your phone."

The person looked puzzled and, after patting their back pocket, exclaimed, "My phone! They actually stole my phone!"

"Thank you so much, young lady. I'm really grateful," the woman said, still shocked.

"It's alright. Can any of you help call the police?" Su Xiaoqi hurriedly left.

Because the voice in her mind started to speak again, "The host acted bravely, caught the thief, helped the owner retrieve the phone that was supposed to be lost, prevented the thief from committing further crimes, and brought positive energy and progress to society. Unlocking the system level, upgrading to Level 4 Progress System. The host will earn 0.4 yuan for every step taken, capped at 20,000 steps per day."

Holy crap, 8,000 yuan a day, 240,000 yuan a month, 240,000 yuan, 240,000 yuan...

Su Xiaoqi exclaimed "holy crap" several times in her mind, but her emotions couldn't be calmed.
