Chapter 676: Chapter 681: The Mutated Xia Mutong (2)
"Ling Cheng, if I’m not mistaken, this person seems to be your friend," right?"
Hearing Zhang Zhongfeng’s question, Ling Chen nodded and said, "She underwent an experiment by the God Organization, and now she has lost her mind and doesn’t remember who I am. I must take her away and restore her to her former self."
"We can all go at her together. There’s no way she can handle so many of us alone."
As soon as Qiu Yong finished speaking, Ling Chen and his two companions immediately charged towards Xia Mutong.
In order not to hurt Xia Mutong, Ling Chen didn’t dare to attack too harshly. Getting closer, Ling Chen turned his fist into a palm, marshaled his Inner Strength, and struck towards Xia Mutong’s neck.
Feeling the force of the blow closing in, Xia Mutong abruptly turned her head and slapped out a palm, meeting Ling Chen’s attack.
However, before Xia Mutong’s palm could touch Ling Chen, she stumbled on her feet and fell to the ground.
Seeing this, Ling Chen leaned forward, opened his arms, and caught the falling Xia Mutong in his embrace.
Before Xia Mutong could struggle, the quick-reacting Xu Ming swiftly picked up an anesthesia gun from the ground and shot it into Xia Mutong’s back. As the tranquilizer dart entered her body, Xia Mutong, who had been struggling fiercely, instantly lost her strength and went limp in Ling Chen’s arms.
Looking at the unconscious Xia Mutong, Ling Chen removed the tranquilizer dart from her back, clicking his tongue in wonder, "This tranquilizer dart really works well."
Considering Xia Mutong’s current condition, to be able to take her down with a single shot, it seems the dose in this tranquilizer dart is quite potent.
Lifting Xia Mutong’s body, Ling Chen placed her to one side and instructed Qiu Yong and the others to watch over her. Then, Ling Chen alone ventured deeper into the laboratory and found the medicinal components needed by Zhu Xiaozhu in the storeroom.
Once he had what he needed, Ling Chen, carrying Xia Mutong, prepared to leave with the companionship of Qiu Yong and his two friends. But at that moment, the ringing of a cell phone suddenly echoed through the laboratory.
Ling Chen turned his head and looked at the ringing cell phone on the ground, his brow slightly furrowed.
Seeing Ling Chen walking towards the phone, Qiu Yong said, "Ling Cheng, you..."
Ling Chen waved his hand and replied, "Big brother, it’s nothing, just a phone call. Probably someone from the God Organization."
Saying that, he picked up the phone from the ground and accepted the call.
"Hello! Mr. Ling, how are you?"
Hearing the unfamiliar voice coming from the other end of the phone, Ling Chen asked, "Who are you?"
"Mr. Ling, don’t you recognize me? Oh right, even though you’ve been searching for me, you’ve never seen me. Mr. Ling, my name is Lin Guodong, I think you should have heard this name."
Lin Guodong?
Ling Chen was startled—it was actually him.
This was, in fact, the first time he had formally spoken with Lin Guodong over the phone.
"Speak, what do you want?"
"It’s nothing much, Mr. Ling. I just want to make a deal with you, and also to give you a word of advice."
"A deal?" Ling Chen said with a laugh that was not a laugh, "Do you think I would make a deal with you? And what gives you the right to give me advice?"
"The woman in your hands is very useful to me. Hand her over to me, and I can offer you some benefits."
Ling Chen let out a cold laugh and said, "Lin Guodong, do you think I care about your benefits? Besides, I am well aware of the nature of your God Organization. Enough, Lin Guodong, spare me the nonsense, I’m definitely taking Xia Mutong with me. If you have any intentions, just come at me."
"Ling Chen, I think you’re looking for death!" Lin Guodong’s tone grew colder, and he snorted lightly, "You’ve opposed my God Organization time and time again, killed so many of my men, and ruined our plans several times. I’ve tolerated you again and again, but you’ve become more and more ruthless. If that’s the case, then you can’t blame me for being impolite."
"Tolerating me?" Hearing these words, Ling Chen had a realization, as if understanding something.
Could it be... Lin Guodong already knows my identity, and that’s why he has been tolerating me? Otherwise, why would he say such things?
"Ling Chen, I’m giving you one last chance. Are you going to hand her over or not?"
"I’ve said, don’t even think about it."
"Fine." Lin Guodong said coldly, "If that’s the case, then don’t blame me for not being courteous."
With that, Lin Guodong hung up the phone.
Discarding his phone, Ling Chen picked up Xia Mutong and quickly followed behind Qiu Yong, leaving the research base together. noveldrama
Outside there was a Land Rover off-road vehicle left by the God Organization. Once in the car, Ling Chen settled Xia Mutong in place and then drove towards the airport.
On the road, Ling Chen called the pilot aboard the plane and asked them to prepare for takeoff at any moment.
By the time they all arrived at the airport, the plane was ready for them.
After nearly two hours of flight, Ling Chen and the others finally returned to Jinhai City.
Leaving the airport, Ling Chen hurried along, taking Xia Mutong and Qiu Yong to the hospital.
"You’re back?"
Zhu Xiaozhu appeared somewhat surprised to see Ling Chen walking in from outside the ward. Though she had allowed Ling Chen three days, she didn’t believe he could manage it in such a short time. But now, it had only been one day, and Ling Chen had already returned with the item, which was unbelievable to her.
"Xiaozhu, look, is this the right thing?"
Ling Chen handed over the medication he had obtained to Zhu Xiaozhu and asked.
"Yes, that’s it," Zhu Xiaozhu nodded after smelling the substance, "You guys stay with your third brother for a while, and I’ll get the medication ready."
Seeing Zhu Xiaozhu leave, Ling Chen quickly walked over to the bed and looked at Yuan Yun, who was still unconscious, muttering to himself, "Third brother, don’t worry, you’ll be well soon."
Then, Ling Chen turned to Xia Yue in the room and asked, "Fifth sister, did my friend come back while I was away?"
"Friend? You mean the woman called ’porridge girl’?" Xia Yue shook her head, "I haven’t seen her."
Never mind!
Ling Chen sighed helplessly.
Since the ’porridge girl’ was intentionally avoiding him, it seemed it would be difficult to see her for the time being.
About half an hour later, Zhu Xiaozhu returned with a bottle of medicine.
"Is it ready?"
Zhu Xiaozhu nodded, "The medication is fine. After injecting it into your third brother, he just needs to rest for a few days and undergo treatment with other traditional Chinese medicines, and then he’ll recover."
"Good, I’ll be troubling you."
While speaking, Zhu Xiaozhu drew the medication from the bottle into a syringe and then injected it into Yuan Yun’s body.
As the medication was injected, the medical devices connected to Yuan Yun immediately reacted. Watching the rising data, Ling Chen’s heart, that was in his throat, finally settled.
Vital signs stable, it seems Yuan Yun was out of danger.
"Xiaozhu, you’ve worked hard these past few days." Ling Chen said with gratitude.
Zhu Xiaozhu smiled slightly, "Don’t mention it, it’s only right to help out between friends." She paused and then changed the subject, "Ling Chen, when do we go back?"
Ling Chen thought for a moment, "Tomorrow."
Now that Xia Mutong was still with him, he had to rush her back to the research base as soon as possible to avoid another out-of-control situation.
