The Young Urban Doctor

Chapter 402: Chapter 402: Somewhat Distrustful of Your Character
Before Lin Lan had a chance to react, Luo Ziling had already let go of her.

Seeing Lin Lan’s expression, Luo Ziling smiled and said, “Is there anything else?”

Actually quite annoyed, Lin Lan couldn’t believe Luo Ziling had just hugged her, but seeing that he didn’t have any particular expression, she didn’t pursue it further, just glared at him then handed him something smaller than a fingernail, “This is our emergency communication device. If you encounter danger and need help, press here once, and all the people nearby from our side will receive your signal.”

Never expecting Lin Lan to give him such a good gadget, Luo Ziling was ecstatic and snatched it immediately, “So I can seek your help whenever I have any problems in the future?”

Lin Lan didn’t expect Luo Ziling to actually snatch it from her, and couldn’t help but get a little angry, “Give it back to me first!”

“No way,” Luo Ziling firmly refused, “You can’t take it back.”

“You don’t know how to use it, so it’s useless for you,” Lin Lan looked at Luo Ziling with disdain, cursing the man’s greed in her heart.

If she had known, she wouldn’t have given him this good thing right away; she would have waited until he ran into trouble again.

“Alright then,” Luo Ziling obediently handed the tiny object back to Lin Lan.

“Remember one thing, you absolutely cannot call for help unless it’s a matter of life and death that you can’t resolve on your own, or if it’s something that could seriously harm the nation’s interest,” Lin Lan said very seriously, “Promise me that, and only then can I give you the caller.”

“Alright, I promise I won’t call for help randomly,” how could Luo Ziling not agree?

“I’m a bit skeptical of your character,” Lin Lan gave Luo Ziling a serious look and didn’t hand over the positioning calling system to him.

Luo Ziling felt like he had just been dealt a thousand points of damage and resentfully said, “You can choose not to give it to me, but you can’t insult my character.”

“Is your character that good?” Lin Lan’s face still showed contempt.

“Definitely not worse than yours,” Luo Ziling picked up on the disdain in Lin Lan’s eyes and was even more annoyed, “At least, I wouldn’t leave without saying goodbye, and I would show gratitude and respect to someone who saved my life.”

Lin Lan was stunned for a moment but finally opened her clenched hand and handed the positioning caller to Luo Ziling, “Here!”

“I don’t need your charity,” Luo Ziling was genuinely a bit angry, this woman actually said his character wasn’t that great.

“If you don’t want it, forget it,” Lin Lan tightened her loosened grip again, saying with a mocking tone, “It’s not that I won’t give it to you, it’s that you yourself don’t want it.”

“Give it here,” Luo Ziling thought it over and felt there was no point in holding a grudge over such a trivial matter with a young woman, nor was it worth it, and he grabbed Lin Lan’s clenched fist, “If you’re going to give it to me, then don’t back out.”

Lin Lan didn’t let go, her fist still tight, and Luo Ziling yanked at her fingers, forgetting completely that Lin Lan was a woman.

Lin Lan’s face turned slightly red, unable to believe how shameless Luo Ziling was, and finally, she opened her hand.

Having snatched the little gadget, Luo Ziling was immediately overjoyed.

“Tell me how to use it?” He fiddled with the gadget, looking at it from all angles, and then asked Lin Lan, “So I just press here, and you guys will receive my distress signal?”

“Don’t just press it any time, and remember, the battery inside can only last for half a year,” Lin Lan watched Luo Ziling and felt even more contempt.

In fact, the device used a solar-powered battery, which could recharge quickly with just a bit of sunlight, meaning it could be used almost indefinitely without ever running out of battery.

But to keep Luo Ziling from getting too smug, she deliberately told him the battery life was very short.

“So it’ll be useless after half a year?” Luo Ziling couldn’t help feeling a bit regretful.

Lin Lan nodded.

“Alright then, I’ll come to you for a replacement when the time comes,” Luo Ziling said before preparing to slip it into his pocket after taking another few glances.

Lin Lan originally wanted to explain in detail how to use it and where best to conceal it, but seeing Luo Ziling’s attitude, she ultimately didn’t say anything and merely called out irritably, “Follow me!”

“Where to?”

Lin Lan looked at Luo Ziling as if he were an idiot, and he could only very reluctantly follow her out of the small building she lived in.

After walking for a while, Luo Ziling realized that Lin Lan was taking him to check on Falcon’s injuries.

Falcon’s condition had improved significantly since Luo Ziling had treated him. The wound had already scabbed over, and new tissue was growing, although the wound still looked somewhat terrifying.

During the checkup, Falcon said emotionally, “The military doctors have looked at my injuries these past few days, and they’re all shocked at how quickly I’ve recovered; they thought it wasn’t possible. At first, when Peacock insisted on taking me to you for treatment, I didn’t think it was necessary. Now it seems, I was lucky to have found you, or I might truly have had to give up my military uniform. Thank you!”

“Don’t mention it,” Luo Ziling said with a smile, shaking his head.

He had a pretty good impression of Falcon. Although they’d inexplicably fought, the man was very forthright and adorable; Luo Ziling felt he could be a friend worth making.

After checking on Falcon’s injuries, Lin Lan took Luo Ziling to the shooting range to continue teaching him how to shoot.

This gave Luo Ziling another pleasant surprise. He had originally thought Lin Lan was being cold towards him today and wasn’t sure she’d be willing to teach him shooting.

Since Lin Lan’s car had come to pick him up today, Luo Ziling had brought the gun Li Haiyang had given him.

Under Lin Lan’s direction, he fired twenty bullets—three shots hit the bullseye, fifteen were above six rings, and not a single shot missed the target. This surprised Lin Lan.

Luo Ziling’s marksmanship had improved notably with just a few practice sessions. It was commendable for him to reach this level so quickly.

With a bit more practice, he might become an excellent sharpshooter; the guy had a real talent for shooting.

However, Luo Ziling wasn’t satisfied with his shooting results. When Lin Lan taught her, her movements in drawing the gun and shooting were incredibly fluid, like “flowing clouds and water,” and she hit the bullseye with every shot. In comparison, he fell far short.

What Luo Ziling didn’t expect—and found even more frustrating—was that Lin Lan actually refused to give him more bullets. In other words, from the fifty bullets he initially had, after firing a few last time and twenty today, he had less than thirty left, which made him very anxious.

“Why won’t you give me more bullets?” Luo Ziling complained to Lin Lan.

Lin Lan simply looked at him with an indifferent expression, “You’re not a soldier, you don’t have the right to more ammunition.”

Luo Ziling’s eyes widened suddenly, “So, you’re saying once these few bullets are gone, I can’t use this gun anymore?”

Seeing Luo Ziling’s reaction, Lin Lan wanted to laugh inwardly, but she kept her tone stern, “If you agree to do one thing for us, you can keep getting more bullets.”

“What is it?” Luo Ziling was instantly on guard.
