Shen Wuyou cried out from the pain.
The doctor's hands, which they had so prided themselves on, had not been touched since his kidnapping, the intention being to coerce him into working for their country with these very hands.
Shen Wuyou gritted his teeth, enduring the searing pain while simultaneously assessing his injuries. With timely treatment and their family's resources, his hands could still be saved. But the cliff had exploded, and they had moved Qin Ningyi there...
Hearing his pained cries, the man's eyes held a mix of satisfaction and madness.
"If you were sensible, I would have sent you abroad. What a pity!"
He pulled the knife out.
The blade dripped with blood. With a sinister grin, he used the flat of the knife to pat Shen Wuyou's bulging veins, "Those two were well hidden by you, and that door was indeed difficult to open!"
Shen Wuyou had not yet recovered from the news of Qin Ningyi's potential death in the explosion. After the pain, he was met with this information. He was likely referring to the two "lunatics." He had indeed hidden them in a place with a top-tier security door...
So they had found them after all? Shen Wuyou thought dejectedly.
"How..." Shen Wuyou's voice was hoarse, each word a struggle.
The man laughed maniacally, "We are the strongest in the world!"
Shen Wuyou had indeed hidden them exceptionally well; apart from himself, no one knew about it. The man spat and chuckled inwardly, glad they had the SS department. Recently, BD had collaborated with SS, with SS handling information tracking, and they had provided Shen Wuyou's signal trajectory, which led them to analyze and locate the place.
"Tell us how to open the door. This is your last chance. I can leave you a whole corpse."
The man gave Shen Wuyou a final choice.
The knife in his hand paused at Shen Wuyou's chest. The sharp blade pierced through the thick clothing, pressing against Shen Wuyou's heart.
Cold as a venomous snake.
"The door will open, sooner or later," the man reminded him sinisterly.
"Pah." Shen Wuyou spat out a mouthful of blood. "You won't succeed. Your plot will soon be known to everyone, and internationally..."
He had simply explained the proposal to him. Seeing Qin Ningyi's demeanor, he hadn't even considered whether they could execute it perfectly, yet he had gone ahead and done it.
Such courage and trust, such tacit understanding and passion made him nostalgic for the past.
"Divine Doctor." After speaking to Qin Ningyi, he half-knelt beside Shen Wuyou, taking out several medicine bottles and bandages from his person. "I'll give you some basic treatment."
The people who had surrounded Shen Wuyou then tacitly moved back, clearing a space for the squad leader to operate.
The squad leader's casual address of "Divine Doctor" made Qin Ningyi glance at the two of them.
Upon hearing this voice, Shen Wuyou weakly opened his eyes and looked at the person fully covered in clothing before him. He looked at the eyes behind the goggles and suddenly smiled.
"Wen Hu?"
Shen Wuyou's voice was almost inaudible in the mountain wind. The person before him narrowed his eyes, seemingly smiling as he nodded while bandaging Shen Wuyou's palm.
It was only then that Qin Ningyi truly confirmed that Shen Wuyou knew these individuals, who were suspected to be from Shenji.
"They found the person I hid... Hurry, hurry back, back!" Shen Wuyou, knowing it was him, urged repeatedly.
Qin Ningyi's subordinates also rushed forward, "Young Master Qin, those two people have been captured!"
Although they didn't know where Shen Wuyou had hidden the individuals, the people protecting Shen Wuyou, after recovering some strength, had been closely monitoring the laboratory surroundings as per Qin Ningyi's instructions.
"It's very important!" Shen Wuyou, his strength failing, gripped Wen Hu tightly and uttered these words before completely losing consciousness.
Wen Hu looked at Qin Ningyi. "One more collaboration?"
"Deal."
