Chapter 891: Weakness
Dean shook his head, and seeing Li Hua's pale face, he said directly, "She is sick, and I can't cure it."
Even though Dean had been forced to get involved in medicine in the past two years at the base, the more auxiliary surgical treatments were still not enough to treat some diseases.
Li Hua felt a little disappointed, but when he thought that he was now relying on Li Zhuang, he might have a chance to get treatment at the Yuebanwan base, so he felt relieved.
But Liang Le was not so calm. She was aware of her own physical condition and now she just wanted to hold on and see her son settle down.
Li Zhuang, who had just finished communicating with Xu Sa, also came over. Hearing this, he took the initiative to say, "There is a doctor at the base, let's go back and get him to check it out."
"Thank you, godfather." Li Hua's gratitude is beyond words.
Xu Sa asked casually, "Do you have any relatives on your grandpa's side?"
Before Li Hua could speak, Liang Le said, "No more."
Meeting Xu Sa's gaze, Liang Le said frankly, "I received the 3 million betrothal gift from them and sent it to the Zhao family. Now I have repaid all the debts."
She looked at Zhao Hua and reminded him, "From now on you are just Li Hua. Apart from your godfather and mother, you will not have any relatives."
This is equivalent to completely breaking off Zhao Hua's relationship with the past.
Zhao Hua nodded heavily to indicate that he understood.
Since the other party had already said this, Xu Sa didn't insist and nodded to signal Zhao Hua to take Liang Le to a car with seats available first.
**
Knowing that there was an ambush ahead, the Yuebanwan team was no longer in a hurry to move forward. Xu Sa even stopped the car halfway under the pretext of asking everyone to bring some prey back and let the group go up the ground.
While everyone was puzzled by this order, Lu Xiao from the Kyoto base had already received new news from them. Upon learning that Zhao Qiang wanted to kidnap Lu Xi in exchange for benefits, Lu Xiao immediately turned hostile.
Following the map sent to him, he personally led the team to overturn Zhao Qiang's lair and brought out a man, who was none other than Brother Jin, the one-armed man who had stopped Pang Xinghuo from messing around. In addition, there was an unexpected news -
On his wedding night, Zhao Qiang did not accompany his new wife, but disappeared from the base.
"This guy came to block someone in person?" Xu Sa found it incredible when he saw the news. "Why does he think that he can arrest someone under Li Zhuang's nose when he is also SS-level?"
"Maybe he has a target in mind, Li Zhuang needs to protect many people," Li Yan analyzed, and asked tentatively in a low voice, "You lied to Major General Lu that the other party captured his son and asked him to work for you. Aren't you afraid that he will bring up the past later?"
"How can this be a lie? Xiaoxi was already among the targets of that sinister Zhao Qiang. I just didn't mention Dean for the first time." Xu Sa said righteously. He looked around guiltily and didn't see anyone else. He whispered to several people from Team 3 who were acting as temporary communicators, "The message just now was sent by our Deputy Captain Li, not me."
“……”Li Yan.
The relationship between your team is so good, I wonder if the captain knows about it?
The team rested for two hours until a team behind sent someone over, and then they set off again.
When we set off again, the car speed was much faster.
After readjustment, Li Zhuang took Dean and Lu Xi to an armored vehicle, along with He Song.
He Song was confused as to why he was temporarily transferred to another car. He was still a little dazed. When he saw high-level psychics like Antonio and Gu Qingji gathered on the bus, he asked directly what happened.
"We've received news that someone may attack us and want to kidnap people in our team to extort crystal cores. You three are the most likely to do this, so we need to gather together to protect you," Gu Qingji explained for everyone.
This was the first time He Song was protected after the apocalypse. He looked dazed for a moment, and only reacted after Li Zhuang patted him on the shoulder.
"I'll ask the base commander about his recovery when I get back. Don't worry, wait a little longer." Li Zhuang rarely comforted people.
"It's okay, it's just a good opportunity to take a break." He Song relaxed in his seat and responded with a smile.
Although he was indeed worried at the beginning, He Song did not have any concerns about the base's concealment of the news or its protection of the Miracle Team. He even felt it was dangerous and brought him here in advance.
With such a base, what else is there to worry about?
In another SUV not far from the car, Xu Sa was looking at the man in the back seat.
The man looked to be in his thirties, with wrinkles already appearing at the corners of his eyes. His appearance could not really be described as handsome, but his temperament was gentle.
I guess if Gu Qingyue got older, he might look like this.
Thinking about Pang Xinghuo's temperament and Gu Qingji at the beginning of the apocalypse, Xu Sa felt that they might attract the covetousness of such bastards.
"Let me introduce myself. I'm Xu Sa, from the only team in Yuebanwan," Xu Sa introduced himself.
"Hello, my name is Jin Yuan."
Jin Yu'an's face was unhealthily pale, and he looked unhealthy at first glance, especially since he was squeezed between Lin Sheng and Liu Yang. As the car swayed as it moved, he would occasionally slightly avoid the person on his right, and that was exactly where he was missing an arm.
It is said that it is not a problem for a healing psychic to recover from an injury now, but his arm was already like this when he broke into the meeting room last time, and he is still dodging now, which means he can only face it head-on and the wound has not fully recovered.
Xu Sa narrowed his eyes and immediately judged that the other party's arm might not have been repaired at all, or only partially repaired.
Combined with what Zhao Hua said, Zhao Qiang took something from Pang Xinghuo, which was most likely... Jin Yuan's arm!
Because he still wanted to reattach it, the arm has not been completely repaired, so the original granulation tissue structure is retained to facilitate future repairs. This granulation tissue is very tender, which is why he is careful not to let others touch it.
"You brought me here because of Pang Xinghuo's matter, right?" Jin Yu'an couldn't wait for Xu Sa to speak, so he could only ask.
"You know?" Xu Sa asked instead of answering.
Jin Yuan nodded, but did not hide anything.
Pang Xinghuo did not grow up in the Pang family when he was young. He was the illegitimate child of the Pang family and had never been recognized. He lived with his uncle Jin Yuan.
But the Pang family had never had a son, and eventually they forcibly took him back when he was a teenager.
The personalities of teenagers have already been formed, so they are naturally not that easy to control. The Pang family has repeatedly used Jin Yu'an as a threat, because they made their fortune through usury and their methods are ruthless. Every time Pang Xinghuo is out of control, some minor accidents will happen to Jin Yu'an.
From losing a job to minor accidents, Jin Yuan has encountered countless things.
"I couldn't bear to see my nephew being controlled like this, and I even thought about committing suicide," Jin Yu'an said in a flat tone, as if he was telling someone else's story. "Xiaoxing went crazy at the time, thinking that they forced me, so he went to the Pang family and killed someone."
Jin Yuan's eyes welled up with tears. "He was only sixteen at that time, only sixteen..."
He knelt on the ground and begged Jin Yuan not to die, even if it meant living for him, and not leaving him alone.
"The Pang family still needed him, so they had to suppress his murder. However, they also used the evidence of his murder to control him. They were also afraid that he would go crazy again, so they didn't attack me again, but they pinned many of the Pang family's illegal activities on Xiaoxing's head."
The two of them lived in fear, always worrying about what might happen to each other. In this situation, the boundary between family and love became blurred.
"After the apocalypse, Xiao Xing awakened his special powers. After the order was disrupted, he began to frantically retaliate against those who had hurt us. However, his special powers were low at the beginning, so some of them slipped through the net..."
At that time, Jin Yu'an was unconscious and was probably awakening his special powers. Pang Xinghuo didn't trust the people from the Pang family, so he carried him on his back. Unexpectedly, he was attacked from behind. Pang Xinghuo couldn't dodge in time and was shot in the chest.
"I was supposed to awaken into a healing psychic, but the bullet exploded in my chest and destroyed a lot of my internal organs. It healed itself at that time, causing my internal organs to grow again without being cleaned, and also caused bullet fragments to grow in my internal organs." When Jin Yu'an saw Xu Sa looking at his arm suspiciously, he knew that the other party had guessed something.
"The bullet didn't kill me at that time, but my superpowers didn't awaken either." There was no regret in Jin Yuan's tone, only relief.
After all, the internal organs are not the place where bullet fragments can be placed. After Pang Xinghuo took control of the Pang family, he also found many healing psychics to help check Jin Yuan, but they all said that they needed a doctor to combine healing operations and refused on the grounds of their own insufficient abilities.
"If the news of the zombie siege in Kyoto had not spread earlier, perhaps we would have come to Yueban Bay for help." Jin Yuan confirmed what Zhao Hua had said before that the purpose of their coming to Kyoto was to seek help from Yueban Bay.
"Then why...?" Lin Sheng asked.
"Something happened when we entered the base," Jin Yu'an sighed, "Maybe it's fate. Some members of the Pang family who were killed by Xiaoxing hid in Kyoto. After they knew we were coming, they attacked me."
"They know that if anything happens to me, Xiaoxing will not be able to bear it, so they just poke at the painful spot," Jin Yu'an said with a cold expression. "There is a man from the Pang family's maternal family who is an animal trainer. He controlled several mutant dogs to attack us and tore off one of my arms."
"When I thought I was going to be dismembered, a captain of the guard team passed by and saved me. It was supposed to be a life-saving favor, but he took my arm away on the pretext that it could be repaired. Later, Zhao Qiang came looking for me," Jin Yuan smiled helplessly, "You all know the rest."
Pang Xinghuo felt that Jin Yu'an was implicated by him again, and wanted to get his arm back, so he willingly became Zhao Qiang's knife.
"How can you be sure that Zhao Qiang didn't destroy that arm?" After all, it's not surprising that even his own son gave up on him.
Jin Yu'an's brows were calm, and it was obvious that he had thought of this possibility. He smiled bitterly and said, "If Xiaoxing won't give up, there's nothing I can do."
Xu Sa didn't know how to describe these two people for a moment. He winked at the other two and asked them to speak, but they both looked away tacitly, with no intention of cooperating at all.
