"Where are my legs! Where are my legs!"
Lu Qi, pale as a ghost, lay on the hospital bed, completely unable to accept the facts his mother had spoken. How could this be?! Absolutely impossible!
He was perfectly fine last night when he went to his class reunion. He was the center of attention, and everyone looked at him with envy and longing. But after just one night, when he woke up again, he was told that his legs were gone!
The intense pain in his lower limbs and abdomen forced him to accept the fact that he had lost his legs. He had just undergone open-chest surgery. He was finished; he would be a cripple from now on!
His pride and self-respect must not be trampled underfoot! He will not allow it!
"It must be those quack doctors! They must have made a mistake in their diagnosis! Mom! I'm going to sue them! I'm going to sue them! How dare they amputate my leg! How dare they!"
Lu Qi's face was streaked with tears, and his gaze toward his mother was unfocused.
Tears streamed down Lu's mother's face. Who could have imagined that her son, whom she had always been so proud of, would get such a strange illness? But if you're sick, you have to get treatment; there was nothing she could do about it.
"Qiqi, don't be like this. We can still use prosthetics in the future. It's okay. Mom and Dad will always be by your side. Don't worry."
"No!" Lu Qi's gaze finally focused, his eyes filled with hatred as he looked at his mother. He struggled to sit up, oblivious to the pain in his body. "I don't want a prosthetic limb! I just want my leg! My leg..."
Before he could finish speaking, Lu Qi fainted. He had just undergone open-chest surgery, and the violent movements had caused his wound to reopen.
"Doctor! Doctor!" Lu's mother hurriedly went to call the doctor for help, and chaos ensued.
Lin Ruo was completely unaware of Lu Qi's reaction; she had already set foot on the soil of City C.
She took a deep breath. Coming here again, her mind was still filled with the bloody memories of the last time, to the point that she felt there was a bloody smell in the air.
Not knowing where Chen Yu was, Lin Ruo stood outside the airport, looking around. She had been here on missions before and was quite familiar with the place. She still needed to investigate things step by step.
Based on online guides, she found an agency and inquired about the two largest gangs in City C: the Qinglin Gang and the Qinglong Society. Zhongyi Street is Qinglin Gang's territory. As long as you pay enough, you can rent a courtyard without an ID card, but the price is relatively high.
For convenience, Lin Ruosu simply rented a relatively large villa on Zhongyi Street in City C, with a huge yard and a high wall, making it difficult for outsiders to see into the yard.
However, the rent for this villa is indeed very expensive, at 50,000 yuan a month.
Lin Ruo readily agreed to rent the place for a month, and while the agent was printing the contract, she stood there chatting with the agent.
The existence of gangs in City C is commonplace. Some intermediaries who have been in this business for a long time have some inside information, but of course, you have to be willing to spend money.
Lin Ruo spent 200,000 yuan to get the middle-aged intermediary to talk and get some recent news about the Qinglin Gang, but Chen Yu was not mentioned in the news.
Lin Ruo didn't dare to mention Chen Yu's name rashly, for fear of alerting him. Having no other choice, she inquired about some other information.
After completing the formalities, the agent took her to the rented villa. After seeing the agent off, she took a closer look at the villa. The entire villa was spotless, clearly indicating that someone cleaned it regularly. The retro chandeliers and medieval-style decorations were worth the price she paid.
After carefully inspecting the villa and confirming that there were no hidden cameras, she sat down, took out her computer from her storage space, and opened it. Following the method the agent had taught her, she found the dark web and anonymously posted a bounty: a million-dollar reward for finding a hacker, requiring only top-tier hackers to accept the job.
Perhaps Lin Ruo's price was too high, because within two hours a top hacker accepted the order and contacted Lin Ruo.
A: Boss, what do you need to check?
B: I need to find out where a person named Chen Yu is now.
A: OK, give me half an hour.
Looking at the reply on her phone, Lin Ruo sighed inwardly, thinking that before the apocalypse, this hacker was truly invincible, finding someone in just half an hour.
Anyway, there was still half an hour left. Lin Ruo used her mental energy to enter the space. Since the space was set up, she hadn't had time to plant crops on all the land in the space.
Now that she had time, she simply filled all the empty farmland with crops, so she could see the difference between this ordinary land and the black soil in the jade bracelet space.
She used her spiritual power to enter the space and communicate with the entire space. The seeds that were originally stored in the static space began to fly out one after another.
On the land of the living space, small pits appeared in neat rows. Seeds flew up one by one and landed in the pits, and then the soil next to the pits covered them.
It only took a few minutes for all the land to be planted.
Then, with a thought, she conjured up streams of water from the freshwater pond, irrigating all the land.
After everything was set up, Lin Ruo arranged the automatic feeders and sprinklers, set the programs, and looked at the completely renovated space.
She was very satisfied and withdrew her mental energy from the space.
An hour had passed before the phone finally received the message from the hacker.
A: Boss, this is a tough one for you. I had to use all my skills to find out. The person you're looking for is the captain of the special forces, but it seems he has a grudge against the Qinglin Gang recently, and the Qinglin Gang is still looking for him everywhere.
A holiday? Lin Ruo suddenly realized why he was in such a miserable state back then; it seemed he had escaped from the Qinglin Gang to City A.
