Chapter 537 True and False Identities
"You lot, get your act together!" Baron immediately noticed the drowsiness in their voices and coldly reminded them, "I sent you to keep an eye on the school, not to take a nap! Anything unusual at school this afternoon? How's Miss Nini doing?"
“Young Master Baron, rest assured! There’s nothing unusual here. Our people checked out half an hour ago, and the people inside said Miss Wen Ni is still conducting experiments. We can also see Miss Wen Ni’s figure from outside; she’s definitely busy!” The bodyguard quickly cleared his throat and answered seriously, “From this afternoon until midnight, many infected people were still being sent to the medical building, and several critically ill patients were being transferred to nearby hospitals!”
“Don’t worry about anyone else.” Baron’s tone was deep. “You just need to keep a close eye on Miss Nini’s safety!”
"Yes, Master Barron!"
The bodyguards responded repeatedly.
After hanging up the phone, Barron, leaning against the balcony of the residential area, lit a cigarette and put it in his mouth. His gaze swept across the long street and was fixed on the closed gate of Huashang University on the other side of the avenue!
They were currently in the house that Lu Jinye had arranged for Wen Ni in Gangcheng. It was indeed very close to the school, and the school campus was clearly visible from there.
I wonder how Qin Yuan is doing? Has his illness relapsed?
Thinking of this, Baron's brow furrowed involuntarily, and even smoking became irritating. He simply stubbed out the cigarette, letting the flame burn his fingertips, but he seemed oblivious, gazing into the distance, slightly lost in thought!
"Young Master Barron!" The hurried voice of his subordinate came from behind, snapping Barron back to reality. "We've made progress on the man you asked us to investigate!"
"Found it? Let me see it."
Barron turned around, his face serious and urgent as he snatched the stack of brown paper document bags from his subordinate and ripped the opening open with a clatter!
Baron glanced at the room from top to bottom, his eyes widening in astonishment. Before he could finish reading, he turned away with a grim expression and headed straight for Lu Jinye's bedroom on the other side.
At the bedroom door, Dr. Su Li was sitting on the sofa organizing patient records. Seeing Baron rushing towards her with heavy footsteps, Dr. Su Li quickly stood up and blocked the bedroom doorway with one arm!
"Why are you in such a hurry? Keep your voice down. To put Wen Ni at ease, Master Lu endured the pain the whole time, and his clothes were soaked with sweat when he came back. He was in pain for most of the night, and I gave him the highest dose of painkillers I could manage to get him to sleep. Don't wake him up again!"
"Get out of my way, I have something important to discuss with Master Lu!" Baron frowned deeply, the brown paper bag in his hand was already crumpled beyond recognition!
“What could be so important in the middle of the night? Unless it’s a matter of life and death, just wait until tomorrow! If he doesn’t take good care of his health, he’ll probably be ruined!” Su Li was also very stubborn. As a doctor, he knew his patients’ bodies best.
"Can……"
Baron knew perfectly well that Master Lu's health was paramount, but the matter was of utmost importance. If he didn't report it, Master Lu would likely be in real trouble once he found out...
After a brief hesitation, Baron pressed down on Su Li's arm, his tone solemn, "This matter concerns Miss Wen Ni's personal safety. If we wait any longer, something terrible might happen!"
"What!"
Su Li was taken aback, and the hand that had been blocking her suddenly dropped.
Wen Ni? What happened?
At the same time, the bedroom door behind them was suddenly opened. They turned around together and saw Lu Jinye standing in the doorway, who had just fallen asleep a short while ago!
He was wearing pajamas and could barely stand by holding onto the door frame with one hand. He looked tired but worried!
"You just said, what happened to Wen Ni?"
"Master Lu."
Baron stammered a few words, then quickly stepped forward and handed over the documents in his hand. "We've found out about Li Shiyan, the one you asked us to investigate!"
Without saying a word, Lu Jinye immediately lowered his head and began to look through the documents, his brows furrowing more and more as he read.
Baron's voice was deep as he added, "At first, we found nothing unusual about his identity; he was indeed a doctor who had returned from abroad and was hired by Fudan University Second Affiliated Hospital. But I was worried there was something fishy going on, so I had my friend in England secretly investigate the hospital where Li Shiyan worked. The hospital staff said that Li Shiyan had disappeared several months ago and hadn't been found yet! So it's impossible for him to suddenly return to China and then go to work at Fudan University Second Affiliated Hospital!"
“I also asked them for all of Li Shiyan’s information, including photos. He’s a completely different person from the current Li Shiyan!” Baron put the two photos together and spoke faster. “Master Lu, your suspicions are correct. The fake Li Shiyan is impersonating the real Li Shiyan. He deliberately picked up Wen Ni, and it’s very likely that he’s waiting for an opportunity to make a move against her!”
"Smack."
The file slammed shut with a crisp sound.
Lu Jinye had already pulled his coat over his shoulders, grabbed the wheelchair by the door, and his face was deathly pale. "Contact Wen Ni immediately. Also, we need to go to the school clinic right now!"
"yes!"
The night was shrouded in thick fog, creating a hazy and indistinct atmosphere.
A train convoy came to a stop at the school's main entrance.
The bodyguards in black ran over and confronted Lieutenant Chen Rong and the privates on duty at the door!
"What are you doing? Who are you?"
Chen Rong's expression was cold and extremely cautious.
Chen Rong's tense expression only relaxed slightly when he saw Lu Jinye sitting in a wheelchair!
"I recognize you. We met in the dean's office not long ago. You're the head of the Lu family and Wen Ni's boyfriend, right? But what happened to you? And you're in a wheelchair now?"
"Open the door," Lu Jinye said, uttering only four words.
“I’m on guard duty here and no one is allowed to enter or leave. Besides, it’s so late, what brings you here?” Chen Rong didn’t budge or give in.
"Wen Ni is in danger." Lu Jinye looked up, his eyes filled with undisguised urgency!
"Danger? We have troops guarding this place, what danger could Wen Ni possibly be in?" Chen Rong laughed and shook his head, finding Lu Jinye unreasonable.
"The mastermind behind the attack on Princess Xiya is probably in the medical building. Their current target is Wen Ni; they're going to harm her!" Baron shouted, raising his voice. "Open the door quickly and let us in! It'll be too late if we wait any longer!"
"What?" Chen Rong hesitated for a second, and seeing that their expressions didn't seem like they were talking nonsense, he thought for a moment, "Wait a moment, this matter is of great importance, I need to report to my superiors first..."
"You can report it, but no one can stop me."
Lu Jinye uttered a powerful and authoritative sentence.
The bodyguards in front of him had already drawn their guns, openly confronting Chen Rong's men! On the other side, Barron had already walked to the door, drawn his gun, and fired a shot that shattered the iron chain holding the door open, causing the iron door to creak open!
Chen Rong, who was about to get in the car to report, froze and yelled, "Lu Jinye, are you crazy? What are you doing!"
"The matter is urgent, and I apologize for any offense I may have caused. Please convey to Hu Huai-ren that I will bear all the consequences myself!"
After uttering those words, Lu Jinye led his men straight into the school gate!
