Chapter 324: Face Covered in Blood
Chu Qiao was in a trance for a moment, supporting his head, and suddenly Brother Feng, Sister Ao and scenes on Mars appeared in his mind.
Her brain seemed to be split into two halves, one half was trapped in a fantasy, and the other half was trying to stay awake.
Oops, I did take some.
Chu Qiao shook his head vigorously, trying to awaken his sanity through the mechanical shaking.
She stuck her finger down her throat and a nauseous feeling filled her stomach.
"vomit--"
Chu Qiao began to vomit frantically until all the gastric juice in his stomach was vomited out, and then he stopped.
Chu Qiao collapsed on the spot with her whole body powerless, with dirty vomit next to her, but she was too weak to move her body.
Half an hour later, she slowly stood up, holding onto the wall, and moved out bit by bit with her legs shaking like a sieve.
There didn't seem to be anything unusual about the black outdoor clothes, but Chu Qiao's legs were already covered in blood. The wounds on his legs were constantly oozing blood, soaking his entire trouser legs.
She felt no pain, the tranquilizer was taking effect in her body.
There was no one guarding outside the factory. In their eyes, Chu Qiao was either dead or useless.
Chu Qiao returned to the car smoothly. There were several notifications on his phone. Chu Qiao tilted his head and carefully identified the words on them.
"Chu Qiao, the police force is short of manpower, and Officer Zhao can't get out."
"Chu Qiao, how are you?"
"I'll take the security over, wait for me."
Chu Qiao picked up the phone, and the blood on his arm stained the screen. The touch screen was completely malfunctioning and he couldn't make any calls.
If she hadn't taken the tranquilizer at this moment, he would have stopped the bleeding in minutes, but the huge mental control brought by the tranquilizer made him feel like he was floating on the clouds, and his hands and feet seemed not to belong to him, let alone to be under his control.
Forget it. My body can’t move, so I can only rely on the remaining trace of rational will.
Open the live broadcast system and call Chu Qiao "Brother Feng" in the private message.
But no one was online and no one responded to her.
Chu Qiao was helpless when he saw that Lu Zhan’s profile picture was lit.
Chu Qiao initiated a live broadcast invitation.
Lu Zhan was originally just cleaning the cache in the APP regularly, but when he received a live call from Chu Qiao, he opened it without saying a word.
A head with a bloody face suddenly appeared on the originally black screen.
【ah……】
[I'm so scared, Chu Qiao, why are you scaring people in the middle of the night? ]
Chu Qiao had just stimulated his throat, and his voice was hoarse: "I'm on the East Outer Ring Road now."
Lu Zhan was stunned. He knew that this was not a prank by Chu Qiao, and his blood boiled instantly.
What happened to you? Aren't we in Iceland?
[Okay, I won't ask anymore. Chu Qiao, hold on.]
I'll be right there.
Chu Qiao opened his mouth slightly and it became difficult for him to speak.
【Don’t close the live broadcast room, don’t sleep. 】
Lu Zhan didn't even change his slippers. He ran to the basement in his pajamas and holding a medicine box.
I don't know how long I waited, but suddenly a private message came from Chen Ao: "What's going on? I don't dare to call you, please let me know you're safe!"
"I'm... normal." Chu Qiao pieced together three words.
"I'm on my way. I'll come find you."
Chu Qiao kept shaking his head: "Don't... don't worry about me, Lu Zhan... is on his way. The term of office is changing... and he's having a meeting at your father's hotel. Keep an eye on the surveillance to see if Li Sisi goes over and whose room she enters."
Chen Ao: "This... the government has taken it all over. Ordinary people can't get in."
"Others can't get in, but you... can."
As the boss's daughter, Chen Ao can of course do this, but if such behavior is discovered, all the companies in the Chen family will be implicated.
"Are you sure?"
Chu Qiao nodded: "It's...certain, it's...a big...matter."
"I understand. I'll go right away."
Chu Qiao slumped in the chair when suddenly a light came on in front of him.
Chu Qiao looked outside cautiously. The strong light made it difficult for him to see who was coming, so he instinctively locked the car door.
In her current state, her combat effectiveness is less than 10%.
"Open the door."
Chu Qiao squinted his eyes and saw that the person coming was holding a white medicine box.
Lu Zhan?
Chu Qiao raised a finger and pressed the locking button.
Lu Zhan looked at Chu Qiao, who was covered in blood in the car, and his hands trembled slightly.
"Go to the hospital, go to the hospital first."
Chu Qiao grabbed Lu Zhan and said, "I can't go. I have a gunshot wound and can't go to the hospital."
Lu Zhan: "Go to my house."
Chu Qiao walked slowly to the passenger seat. Lu Zhan clenched his fists with a serious expression.
"Drive faster." Chu Qiao urged weakly.
Even in the near-death situation on Python Island, Lu Zhan had never seen Chu Qiao so embarrassed and nervous.
He sensed something was wrong: "Hold on."
With all the lights green at night, Lu Zhan almost stepped on the accelerator to the bottom and sped through every intersection.
"Squeak" - with a loud bang, the sound of brakes echoed in the underground garage.
Lu Zhan took off his coat and covered Chu Qiao with it, covering most of the bloodstains.
"Hiding...from the camera." Chu Qiao's voice was hoarse.
Lu Zhan nodded hurriedly: "I know."
Fortunately, it was late at night and there was no one in the elevator, so Lu Zhan successfully brought Chu Qiao back home.
Lu Zhan's home was just like his car, completely devoid of any interest and coldness. The only colors were the three paintings on the wall behind the sofa.
Chu Qiao raised his eyes, grinned hoarsely but did not forget to force a smile.
"It seems...everywhere I go, I'm well-liked by...Dr. Lu."
The three paintings on the wall are of Python Island, the African Savannah and the Icelandic Aurora.
Lu Zhan was in no mood to talk to her about this. He tore open her trouser legs and looked at the pants that had already solidified with blood.
Lu Zhan slowed down his force, took out the medicine box, used saline solution to moisten the blood stains and pants little by little, and gently pulled them open.
There was a deep red wound on Chu Qiao's calf, still oozing blood.
"Hold on, I'll take the bullet out for you."
"I... don't feel any pain." Chu Qiao was telling the truth. She didn't feel any pain. Her whole body felt as if it was floating in the air. She felt light-headed with a smile on her face.
Lu Zhan concentrated on treating Chu Qiao's wound and did not notice anything unusual.
"Scream if it hurts." Lu Zhan opened his mouth, but Chu Qiao didn't move at all.
The knife in Lu Zhan's hand cut Chu Qiao's flesh, and with a turn of his wrist, a bullet was taken out.
Chu Qiao remained motionless from beginning to end.
Logically speaking, without anesthesia, no matter how strong Chu Qiao's willpower was, his muscles would contract due to pain and tension, but Chu Qiao's whole body was completely relaxed.
He quickly sutured Chu Qiao's wound.
"Chu Qiao, Chu Qiao." Chu Qiao's body slumped there limply, with a slight smile on his lips.
Lu Zhan told her that he couldn't wake her up, so he patted Chu Qiao's face.
"Chu Qiao, what's wrong with you?" Lu Zhan felt Chu Qiao's pulse, which was beating very fast, and he was in an excited state.
Chu Qiao was immersed in this ecstatic atmosphere and didn't want to wake up. The memory from the other side of his mind came to him, which was a fragment of his training on Mars.
