At Gavin's ward in the private hospital.
After the postgraduate entrance exam, Wendy relaxed. Every day, she either ate and slept or played online games to kill time.
She enjoyed playing the game that she couldn't help downloading when she saw Noah playing.
Wendy was immersed in the game, and she didn't find anything wrong with it. But in Gavin's view, she had completely become an Internet addict like Noah.
From being a novice to getting familiar with the whole game, it only took Wendy one day. After two or three hours of reading the game strategy on the Internet, she began to slay in the game.
When Gavin was reading, he could always hear the sound of the game coming from Wendy's mobile phone. He felt both troubled and helpless.
Wendy had been playing games all morning, while Gavin had been reading documents.
Gavin thought that it was good for Wendy to be obsessed with the game.
Since she focused on playing it, she would not care how many documents and news he read every day.
It turned out that Gavin had still underestimated Wendy's aggressiveness.
When it was almost lunchtime, Wendy stopped the game and came over to take away the documents in Gavin's hand.
Gavin's hands suddenly became empty, but he was still calm. He looked at Wendy and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Do you think I wouldn't know that you've been reading all morning? Take a rest!"
Wendy firmly looked into Gavin's eyes. She looked as if there was no room for negotiation.
Gavin leaned back and looked at Wendy leisurely. "You've been playing games this morning. Why don't you take a rest?"
Wendy rolled her strange almond-shaped eyes and argued, "It's not the same. I play games for leisure and entertainment. Why should I rest? Your case is different. You're working. Of course, you need to rest! Also, I'm being considerate of you!"
Gavin was speechless. He could only shake his head and look at Wendy helplessly.
"She won."
Wendy's smile became brighter and brighter. She pulled Gavin up and said, "Let's go eat."
As soon as they finished eating, Gavin's cell phone rang. He subconsciously looked at the caller ID and was stunned.
"It's Rolando?"
Gavin certainly remembered Rolando.
"However, Rolando's identity is a little special, and he rarely interacts with us. Why is he suddenly reaching out to me today?"
Gavin answered the phone. Before he could say anything, he heard Rolando's voice. "Long time no see. How's your recovery going?"
"I'm almost recovered." Gavin asked directly, "This is quite unexpected. What can I do for you?"
Rolando went straight to the point and said, "Well, my dad gave me a mission, which is related to you. I want to talk to you about it and visit you by the way. Are you in the hospital now?"
"Yes. You can come over directly," Gavin said. "Shall I send you the address?"
"I've already got it. Joanne has already given it to me. I'll be there in about half an hour." Speaking of Joanne, Rolando said with a smile, "See you later."
"All right."
Gavin hung up the phone and looked at it thoughtfully. He did not speak for a long time.
Wendy felt that Gavin's reaction was a little strange. She poked his arm with her index finger and asked, "Who called you?"
She found it very suspicious that he was absent-minded after answering a phone call.
Gavin came to his senses, looked at Wendy, and said, "An old friend who I don't keep in touch with much. He will be here soon. I'll introduce him to you later."
"An old friend who you don't keep in touch with much?" Wendy tilted her head in confusion. "That's quite weird."
"It is." Gavin touched Wendy's head. "I'll explain it to you when I can."
"Okay!" Wendy suddenly thought of something and pulled Gavin to ask, "But your friend is coming over. Do we need to prepare something? Otherwise, it would be very impolite."
Gavin suddenly felt that his little girl had matured.
At the very least, she had learned how to properly entertain friends.
This could be considered a good thing.
Wendy felt very uncomfortable under Gavin's gaze. She stretched out her hand and waved it in front of him. "Why are you looking at me like that?"
"Wendy, my friend is a policeman," Gavin suddenly said.
Wendy didn't quite understand why Gavin emphasized his friend's profession, so she was a little stunned.
"There are many policemen, and I also have friends who are policemen.
"Did Gavin specifically emphasize that to me for some special reason?"
Wendy suddenly became a little nervous. "If he is a policeman... why is he coming to you?"
Gavin looked at Wendy and suddenly realized that what he said had scared her.
He smiled and motioned for her to relax. "He's coming to me not for business, but for some private matters."
Rolando said on the phone that Chief Taylor had assigned him a mission that was related to Gavin, and he had already guessed what the mission was.
He just didn't expect that Rolando would be involved in this matter.
However, Wendy only kept thinking about the part "private matters".
She was not interested in police business, but if it was a private matter, she would be very interested.
She bounced over, looked at Gavin with her pair of bright big eyes, and asked with interest, "What private matters?"
"The matters between us and Rowdy." Gavin said, "Rolando is sent by the police chief to assist with our investigation, but his identity and profession will not be made public, nor will the police keep it on record. Wendy, you must keep this matter a secret and pretend that you don't know Rolando's identity."
Wendy didn't say anything.
She felt that the atmosphere suddenly became serious.
As long as it had something to do with Rowdy, Gavin would become a different person. He would become cautious and careful and would not allow any mistakes to happen.
In this case, she couldn't be careless either.
Wendy nodded obediently. "I see."
"Okay. You can continue with your games now." Gavin stroked Wendy's hair. "I'll finish reading the last document. Rolando should be here soon."
Wendy slowly withdrew her head and looked Gavin up and down.
Most of the time, some of his little tricks on her made her feel that he still regarded her as a child.
However, it might be a kind of luck for her in her twenties to be spoiled as a child.
"Alright! I'll continue with my games now."
Wendy slid to the side, sat cross-legged on the edge of the bed, and unlocked her mobile phone. She entered the game interface and formed a team to enter a new round of competition.
Gavin leaned against the head of the bed and looked at Wendy when he was flipping the pages.
In addition to preparing for the postgraduate entrance exam, she could only be more serious when playing games. Her beautiful lips were tightly pursed, and she seemed to be absorbed in the game. It was as if she was not only operating the hero in the game but also fighting hard with the players in reality.
Needless to say, she was somewhat cute and charming when she got serious.
While Gavin was thinking about that, he heard a shocking sound.
Then, Wendy stopped.
Gavin had played games before, so he knew what was going on as soon as he saw Wendy's look. He smiled and said, "Did you get killed?"
"The other side is too strong." Wendy looked at Gavin upsettingly and said with a grievance, "We got aced."
Gavin shook his head with deep sympathy. "Well, that's too bad."
Wendy was already upset enough to see her team get aced. When Gavin said that, she felt angry and almost cried.
Gavin didn't hear Wendy talking, but he already knew that she wasn't fine. He looked up and found that she was really about to cry.
He closed the document and looked at Wendy helplessly. "It's just a game. You don't have to take it seriously."
Wendy said angrily, "It feels bad to lose!"
Gavin paused and raised his eyebrows. "To put it simply, you've been through too little failure."
He knew Wendy's past.
This girl was not a competitive person, but since she was a child, she had basically never lost any competition. Even if she was not the champion, she would not fall out of the top three.
However, games were different from intellectual competitions, especially this kind of fighting game that required one's operation skills. The novice players would basically lose miserably.
In other words, it was normal for Wendy to lose now. It was just that she couldn't deal with it.
Wendy thought about what Gavin said and felt that something was wrong.
She stared at Gavin without blinking. "Are you comforting me?"
Gavin thought for a moment and nodded. "You can take it that way."
"Bastard!" Wendy angrily picked up a pillow and threw it at Gavin's chest. "What do you mean by I've been through too little failure?"
Gavin's face darkened, and he waved at Wendy. "Come here."
Wendy suddenly had a bad feeling and shivered. "No!"
Gavin had to promise, "I won't hit you."
Wendy hesitated for a moment and chose to believe him. She slowly moved over and asked, "What do you want?"
Gavin took Wendy's mobile phone and pointed to the game interface. "It requires one's operation skills and proficiency to win this kind of game. You have just started. Of course, you can't defeat experienced players. The reason is very simple - experienced players not only know how to operate their heroes but also how to deal with yours. Do you understand what I mean?"
Wendy nodded in confusion. "You mean that I've spent too little time on the game!"
Gavin was speechless. "What else can I say now that she thinks that's what I mean?"
After losing this round, Wendy immediately formed a team and went on to the next round. As soon as the team was formed, there was a knock on the door.
If she guessed correctly, it should be Noah.
She didn't have time to open the door and shouted casually, "Just come in."
Noah pushed the door open. He first heard the familiar game sound and then saw Wendy sitting cross-legged by the bed, repeating the actions he couldn't be more familiar with.
"Wendy has started playing games?"
Noah walked over and saw a very familiar game picture.
He turned to look at Wendy's operation. Sure enough, it was the typical operation of a novice. It was impulsive, direct, and without any skills.
He thought that if Wendy kept playing like this, her hero would definitely die in less than a minute.
Noah was right. Forty seconds later, Wendy's hero got killed.
He couldn't help but tut-tut. "Wendy, it's not correct to operate this hero like that."
Wendy was waiting for the resurrection. She looked at Noah gloomily and asked, "Then what should I do?"
Noah reached out his hand and said, "Give me your phone. I'll show you."
Wendy thought about it. If it was really like what Gavin had said that she lost because she was a novice, then Noah must be an experienced player. Was there really any difference between their operations? Didn't the players all use all kinds of skills?
With pure curiosity, she handed the phone to Noah.
At this time, Wendy's hero just came back to life.
Noah looked at Wendy with ease and said, "Watch carefully."
