Lu Ning walked in the fog for two thousand years. When he emerged, he found the world seemed to be sick.
The sun grew tentacles, the planets were covered in flesh and blood, the moon grew num...
Lu Ning grabbed the black trench coat hanging on the wall and put it on, and Chen Xingyu and the other two quickly followed.
After going downstairs, Lu Ning arrived at the front desk and found Yu Ran humming a song while processing documents.
Seeing Lu Ning and the others come down, Yu Ran smiled and asked, "Where are you four going?"
Lu Ning said, "Process the mission."
"Oh, then you guys go ahead, be careful on the road," Yu Ran said with a smile.
Yu Ran then lowered her head and continued processing the documents.
Lu Ning glanced at Yu Ran, then looked away.
Yu Ran has indeed been much more diligent these past two days.
Lu Ning drove the three of them to Heyue Garden in no time.
At the entrance of the residential compound, Lu Ning saw two familiar faces: Bo Wen and Peng Qianqian.
To Lu Ning's surprise, Bowen's left hand had been severed at some point.
Upon seeing Lu Ning, the two men's eyes lit up, and they came forward to greet him.
Bowen smiled and said, "Lu Ning, are you leading the team this time?"
Peng Qianqian also smiled and said, "Lu Ning, it's been a long time."
Lu Ning nodded, then glanced at Bowen's hand: "What happened to your hand?"
Bowen glanced at it and laughed, "It's nothing, just bad luck. I got injured during a mission last time."
Lu Ning was silent for a moment, then seemed to remember something and pointed a finger at Bowen's severed hand.
The next moment, Bowen felt an intense stinging pain in his arm. He groaned and turned pale.
Peng Qianqian, standing to the side, stared wide-eyed, completely unexpected that Lu Ning would make a move against Bowen.
Her eyes were alert, and she was about to sound the alarm when she stared wide-eyed at Bowen's severed arm and gasped in shock.
At this moment, granulation tissue began to wriggle at the site of Bowen's severed arm, and it was slowly growing back.
Soon after, Bowen's arm recovered and looked no different from before.
Not to mention Peng Qianqian and Bowen, two ordinary people, even Chen Xingyu and the other two behind Lu Ning stared wide-eyed, their minds full of questions.
They looked at each other, their eyes filled with shock.
They remembered the captain saying that Boss Lu's ability seemed to be immortality.
Then why can it heal others?
They couldn't understand it and were deeply shocked.
Bowen and Peng Qianqian also came to their senses.
Bowen reached out and squeezed his newborn hand, feeling the strength coming from his long-unseen left hand, and said gratefully to Lu Ning, "Lu Ning, thank you so much! I don't know how to thank you enough!"
Lu Ning shook his head: "No need to be polite."
Having known each other for a while, it was just a small favor for Lu Ning, so he naturally didn't care.
Bowen was extremely grateful, but he didn't know how to repay him.
He knew Lu Ning's current strength; he had previously joined the exploration team of Mist No. 233 and his contributions were even greater than those of the Saint.
How could someone like him express his gratitude?
While Bowen was somewhat at a loss, Lu Ning calmly said, "Let's do the mission first. You lead the way and tell me what you know along the way."
When Bowen remembered that they still had a mission to complete, he quickly led the way.
Along the way, Bowen recounted everything they knew in detail.
They also recounted the people the ten-year-old boy had encountered during this period, as they had investigated.
Meanwhile, Bowen stated that their police department has already begun investigating those individuals and will report any suspicious activity immediately.
Lu Ning listened calmly without speaking, but looked at the trio behind him who were still shocked by Lu Ning's treatment of Bo Wen's severed arm.
Lu Ning said, "This is the task for the three of you. I will be watching from the sidelines from now on."
The three of them were startled, and only then did they realize what was happening.
The three immediately began to inquire about the specifics of Bowen's situation.
The group chatted amongst themselves and soon arrived at Building 12, the building where the ten-year-old boy's home was located.
Bowen and Peng Qianqian led the four people to the sixth floor.
There were two sheriffs outside room 604.
The two sheriffs had serious expressions and were holding weapons.
Upon seeing Bowen and his companions, the two immediately saluted.
However, they were all taken aback when they saw Bowen's arm.
"Sir, your hand..."
Bowen waved his hand and said, "Commander Lu Ning has healed me. Open the door. They will handle the rest. You can leave now."
The two looked at Lu Ning with some shock, then quickly opened the door to the room.
As soon as the door opened, they heard cries: "Waaaaah! I want to see my parents! Sheriff, why are you tying me up?! Can you take me home?! I don't want to stay here!"
Inside the living room, two sheriffs, also armed, watched a ten-year-old boy who was tied up and thrown onto the sofa.
The little boy sat on the sofa, wriggling and crying loudly.
The mournful sound could indeed make one think it was a kidnapped little boy.
In Lu Ning's view, there were wisps of white mist inside the little boy's body.
Above the white mist, Lu Ning seemed to see wisps of silvery, fluffy matter.
The flocculent material intertwined inside the little boy's body, like a spider web, trapping him tightly.
