Qiu Yuluo and Ning Che agreed with Lin Yiâs Analysis.
Based on the current situation, this was the only reasonable explanation.
âYou all are making some assumptions,â Liu Hong interjected.
âApart from Hongmen, thereâs also Sun Yee On and 14K in Shianggang. Their influence is significant too. While their reputation might not be as prominent as Hongmenâs, their actions are even more high-profile.â
He paused before continuing.
âThe analysis you just made could apply to Sun Yee On and 14K just as easily.â
Liu Hongâs words left the three of them in silence. It was indeed a problem.
They had too little evidence on their side. Simply concluding that it was the Hongmen who did it was indeed too far-fetched.
âI will investigate this matter personally,â Lin Yi said.
âI donât want you to restrict my actions this time.â
Liu Hong frowned slightly. The matter had come to this point, and he knew he couldnât restrict him at all.
Once it involved that woman, Lin Yiâs rationality escaped his emotional control.
âI can leave this matter alone, but you canât go alone. Take the people from Team 1, consider it a training exercise,â Liu Hong said.
âThis isnât just your problem. The other side clearly targeted the Central Guard Brigade, so naturally, the Central Guard Brigade needs to handle it.â
âAlright.â
Lin Yi agreed. He then attempted to stand up, with Ning Che stepping forward to help him out of bed.
âDonât push yourself too hard,â Liu Hong advised.
âItâs fine, just a bit numb,â Lin Yi replied, gritting his teeth.
âThat serum really packs a punch. I donât know if they mixed in some donkey kick or what, but itâs not something an average person can handle.â
âThat was a C-class serum, capable of temporarily boosting a D-class person to C-class. It had to be that potent,â Liu Hong said.
âThe doctors said itâs a miracle you lasted that long.â
Lin Yi moved his body on the spot, feeling much better. It seemed it wouldnât take long for him to recover fully.
But it might take some time to completely metabolize everything.
âThe main issue was we underestimated them. They brought in five C-class operatives. With such a force, they could even land on the island.â
âFive C-class operatives? Thatâs quite an investment.
âOn the surface, neither Sun Yee On, 14K, nor Hongmen seem capable of such strength. So, identifying the real perpetrator will require more investigation.â
âI think weâve overlooked something,â Qiu Yuluo interjected.
âWhat is it?â Lin Yi asked.
âThe other side knew we were from the Central Guard Brigade, yet they still took such a risky action. It shows how crucial the C-class serum was to them. Although the serum was used by Lin Yi, do you think theyâd simply abandon this matter?â Qiu Yuluo pointed out.
âThe serum is gone. Even if they donât want to give up, they might have no choice,â Ning Che said.
âNot necessarily. You werenât on the ship, so you donât understand those people,â Qiu Yuluo explained. âTheir professional abilities were on par with ours.â
Liu Hong, âContinue.â
âWe have to think about this from another perspective.â
Qiu Yuluoâs expression was serious as she displayed her powerful deductive ability.
âRight now, we have some research reports on C-class serums. Secondly, Lin Yiâs blood and urine are also important research samples. To them, these things are equally important. I donât think the other party will give up so easily.â
âThe research report on the potion is stored at the Central Guards Brigadeâs base. If they really dare to steal it, it would be no different from courting death.â
âIndeed, they probably wouldnât dare target the report. But what about Lin Yi? Whether heâs dead or alive, he has research value,â Qiu Yuluo said, taking a deep breath.
âIf I were them, I would find a way to get Lin Yiâs body to prevent the leakage of the sample.â
Qiu Yuluoâs analysis served as a reminder for the two. After a moment of silence, Ning Che said,
âIf thatâs the case, we could use the same trick again.â
âRight, arrange for Lin Yi to fake his death and lure them in!â
âDamn, why is it always me doing this kind of crap? Canât I ever play a living person?â
âAlright, letâs get ready now,â Liu Hong said.
âThe other party is proactive; they might have already sent people over.â
âIâll gather the hospital staff and block any information about Lin Yi, just saying heâs dead,â Qiu Yuluo said.
âIâll send people to monitor the entrance,â Ning Che said.
âThen letâs do that. You two go prepare and block all information,â Liu Hong said.
âIf your assumptions are correct, thereâs a high probability the other party will come tonight. We canât afford any mistakes.â
âGot it.â
Squeakâ¦
Just as the three were talking, the door to the ward was pushed open, and Liang Ruoxu rushed in from outside.
In fact, she had known about this for a while and was well aware of the situation at the hospital.
The reason why she hadnât come was because of the other woman.
She was also afraid that it would be awkward if the two of them met, so she endured it and did not come over.
As soon as he found out that Ji Qingyan had left the hospital, she rushed over immediately.
âRuoxu is here.â
Seeing Liang Ruoxu, Liu Hong greeted her with a smile.
âUncle Liu.â Liang Ruoxu greeted him politely.
Then, her gaze landed on Lin Yi. âHow do you feel? What did the doctor say?â
âItâs fine. Iâm almost recovered. Donât worry about it.â
Seeing that Lin Yi was fine, Liang Ruoxu was no longer worried.
And she didnât blame Lin Yi for this.
If he didnât do this, he wouldnât be Lin Yi.
âRuoxu, now is not the time to talk. We have other missions to prepare for action,â Liu Hong said.
âThere are other missions?â
Liang Ruoxu subconsciously raised her voice. âIsnât this matter over?â
âOnly some unimportant people have died. The real mastermind hasnât surfaced yet. We need to take further action.â
Liang Ruoxuâs expression didnât look too good. She really didnât want Lin Yi to do such a dangerous thing again.
However, he had no choice. Her grandfather was a member of the Central Guards Brigade, and she had no right to stop him.
âI got it.â
Liang Ruoxu walked in front of Lin Yi, âYou must be careful, donât get hurt again.â
âIt wonât happen again.â Lin Yi touched her soft hair and said apologetically.
âLetâs go back first. Now is not the time to talk.â
âYeah.â
Liang Ruoxu was a woman who understood the big picture. She also knew how important the mission of the Central Guards Brigade was. She didnât dawdle. After taking a deep look at Lin Yi, she turned around and left.
Lin Yi also returned to the bed, preparing to act as a corpse again.
Just as Liu Hong had said, tonight would show whether the other party would take the bait.
Whether or not they took the bait would be up to God.
