As Tang Hao and Ling Mengyu waited for Lin Lan, both of them sat on a neatly stacked brick wall at a nearby park and watched some children play about. Seeing the children, Tang Hao said to Ling Mengyu, "Reminds me of ten years ago, when we were still in preschool, most of the kids played about whilst I trained my quirk and you read a book in the corner of the room by a window."
Ling Mengyu responded "En." as she nodded her head and watched the kids. One of the kids who is showing off to another kid said "I'm the best! Watch me get a goal!". The kid then kicked the ball, however, he slipped and narrowly kicked the ball making it's course almost hit a little girl. Seeing the soccer ball about to hit someone, Tang Hao instantly got up from the brick wall and instantly appeared in front of the ball and stopped it using a single finger
"Wow! Your so cool, Onii san!" shouted a couple kids, Tang Hao then grabbed the ball and said "Be careful there, you almost hurt someone." as he walked up to the kids and returned the soccer ball. The little girl grabbed the sleeve of his shirt and said "Thank you, onii san.."
Tang Hao then turned around and patted her head and said "Hehe, it's ok as long as your alright.". After that Tang Hao went back to sit on the brick wall for a few minutes before Lin Lan found them and told them to follow her

Tang Hao looked at Lin Lan's hero costume and thought to himself, "Hmm.. her costume looks more like historical chinese clothing rather than a costume... I wonder what her quirk and cultivation level is at.."
As if she could read his mind, Lin Lan said to him "You'll find out sooner or later." Hearing her respond to his question that he was thinking to himself, Tang Hao looked at her with his eyes wide open for a second then returned to normal and kept walking behind her along with Ling Mengyu
After walking around for a while, the sound of an explosion resounded along with screams and a bell constantly ringing. Judging by the sound of the bells, Lin Lan said quietly "Follow me, it's a bank heist." as she started moving at great speeds, Tang Hao and Ling Mengyu nodded before following behind her
Upon arriving at the scene, a crowd could be seen hoarding around 50 meters away from the bank along with police cars and policeman blocking the path. A man holding a gun and covering his face shouted through a speaker "HAHAHAHAHAH! Prepare me a getaway and I'll release the hostages!". Another man holding a gun and covering his face held the gun next to a woman's head as he walked beside the first man
Some policeman pointed their guns at the robbers with one of them speaking through a speaker, "Release the hostages, we are calling a car for you and your men". The robber holding the speaker shouted "HAHAHAH! Release the hostages? Only when your men withdraw their guns and the getaway car arrives!"
"You'll never escape even if the getaway car arrives! The heroes will be here soon! It's all over for you!" The policeman said. "HAHAHAHAH! Over for me? Not whilst I have hostages! Or would the heroes rather the hostages die?" The leader of the robbers said
Seeing as the police didn't withdraw their guns, the leader of the robbers told another one of his men to grab another hostage. "Since your men aren't withdrawing! HAHAH!" Pow! The leader turned around and shot one of the hostages in the chest
Lin Lan standing amidst the crowd using her qi sent her flying sword at the leader of the robbers knocking both the speaker and the gun from his hands, whilst Ling Mengyu did the same to another robber. The remaining robber seeing his leader and crew fallen, panicked and almost opened fire at the other hostage, seeing that Tang Hao disappeared from his spot in the crowd and appeared beside the robber and knocked him out cold before grabbing the hostage and bringing them outside
Tang Hao then as if he could teleport appeared inside the bank. From within the bank, Tang Hao saw a dozen or so citizens who appeared to be knocked out cold and had rope around their arms and legs with cloth inside their mouths. He also saw a couple more robbers and hit the back of their necks knocking them out before appearing beside the person who was shot in the chest

Tang Hao took out a pouch from his pocket and took out a case with 9 silver needles lined up neatly within. He then tore apart the hostage's clothes and inserted the 9 needles at certain locations then used his qi to stop the bleeding and slowly heal the damaged tissue. "Luckily, he wasn't shot in the heart or I'd have no way of healing him, even heaven wouldn't be able to save him."
After a while, the bleeding stopped and the hostage's breathing slowly became normal again. Wiping off the sweat from his head, Tang Hao got up and bought the man outside as the Ambulance appeared and carried him away on a stretcher. Tang Hao then bought all the robbers outside to be detained by the police
The policeman who was speaking through the speaker then walked up to Tang Hao and said, "Young man, thank you for what you've done! Not only did you stop the robbers, you also brought back someone from the brink of death!"
"It's part of my job." Tang Hao replied before a dozen or so reporters pushed through the blockade and started filming. A female reporter gave him her card before saying to him "Hello we are XXX News, how did it feel to save a person from the brink of death? How did you do it and what were those needles?" Being bombarded with questions Tang Hao turned to look at Lin Lang and Ling Mengyu in the crowd before disappearing from his spot and appeared next to them
"Good job, Xiao Hao.. eastern medicine huh.." Lin Lan said. Tang Hao thought to himself, "This.. she called me Xiao Hao..." as the trio disappeared from the scene
