Dragon Gate Swordsman

So soon, he and Lin Qingyan contacted the doctor again and got the opportunity to meet the survivor.
In the isolated ward, the girl with bare teeth was struggling to break free from the straps that bound her, even though there were obvious bloodstains on her fair wrists.
Two nurses were placed in the observation room next to it, ready to operate the equipment and release anesthetic gas into the room at any time.
Chongxiao was a little curious about this... She was able to remind herself last night that someone was attacking her, but why did she become so out of control when she came to the hospital?
The doctor could not give an accurate answer to this and could only attribute it to the early effects of oripathy.
"Putting the reasons aside for now, the key is how to calm her down... Chongxiao, what are you going to do?"
"My Originium skills are quite special. They can sense emotions to a certain extent... or communicate with thoughts. Anyway, it's a spiritual thing."
His explanation was a bit vague and obviously unsatisfactory, but it might as well be a try in this situation.
So, Chongxiao became the first person to enter the ward except the doctor.
"hiss!"
The film girl suddenly raised her head, her pair of ferocious animal eyes were full of murderous intent, as if she wanted to tear everything she saw to pieces.
The girl's appearance is indeed different from that of the local residents of Dayan. She looks like a mixed-race person, especially her blue pupils.
"Uh... calm down, Huang Xinglan."
Chongxiao said the girl's name in a calm tone, "You should still remember me, the one who helped you deal with the assassin yesterday."
This sentence seemed to have no effect. Huang Xinglan's fierce eyes did not change at all, and a hoarse growl continued to come from his throat.
This made Chongxiao realize that something was wrong... Being emotionally excited doesn't mean that the brain loses its ability to distinguish. Her behavior at this moment was more like she had lost her mind.
But anyway, the ability to read minds can be used here.
Chongxiao took a deep breath, and then...
I will try my best! I am not some cursed child!
Come on... hold on... grit your teeth... I must become stronger...
No! No no no! I will kill you all! Kill you all!
A large amount of thoughts and memories flooded into Chongxiao's mind like a tide, causing him to feel a very obvious nerve pain.
The side effects of this mind-reading are as obvious as its effects. If you have a choice, it is better not to use it as much as possible...
"Chongxiao?"
"I'm...ok, it should be OK now."
A scene that surprised Lin Qingyan and the doctor appeared: as Chongxiao put his hands down from his head, Huang Xinglan, who was tied to the hospital bed, seemed to have all his strength drained away, and leaned softly on the pillow.
But her eyes were no longer as fierce as before, but became a little hazy.
Lin Qingyan, who was in the observation room, hurried in, but soon heaved a sigh of relief... Chongxiao's problem was not serious. It seemed that he was just dizzy for a short time due to using the Originium technique. Most warlocks in this land had similar problems.
"Huh...huh..."
Chongxiao panted and shook his head, "Let's go out and let her recover first."
At this time, the door of the ward opened again and the doctor walked in.
She was holding a medical kit in her hand, probably to examine Huang Xinglan who had calmed down.
"Wait a minute, doctor, she doesn't need these now, please go out first."
“…Ah? Are you talking about…”
"From now on, no one except the two of us is allowed to enter this ward, including you and the nurses."
Everyone was extremely surprised by Chongxiao's sudden toughness. Lin Qingyan hesitated a little, but still supported his approach...
Soon, they were the only two people left in the ward, including the observation room next door.
"Chongxiao, what does this mean?"
"...Huang Xinglan was in a coma when she was sent here last night, but she woke up in the early morning. She was not sensible at that time, but she was very emotional."
Hearing this, Lin Qingyan's pupils shrank slightly.
Regardless of whether Chongxiao's spiritual Originium skills are reliable, Huang Xinglan was normal when he was sent here, but he turned into this this morning, which means...
"Someone attacked her in the hospital?"
"It's very likely, and I'm afraid..."
Chongxiao was suddenly stunned.
It was obviously a low-probability event that Huang Xinglan survived last night's murder. The real culprit behind the scene was unlikely to arrange staff in the hospital in advance, and with only a few hours, the doctors and nurses had no time to change shifts. If a stranger approached, they would not have been unaware of it.
In that case, the most suspicious ones are the special police officers assigned here?
Lin Qingyan obviously couldn't keep up with Chongxiao's train of thought, but he cooperated with his actions decisively and began to check the special police who should be guarding around the ward.
The result surprised Lin Qingyan.
Just two minutes ago, one of the special police officers who was serving as a secret sentry left on the pretext of going to the toilet and has not returned until now.
This was definitely not a coincidence. The Shendu Special Police Bureau had extremely strict regulations on guard and surveillance missions, and the time when the special police officer just left coincided with the time when Chongxiao asked the doctors and nurses to leave the ward.
"That's him! Maybe he hasn't..."
Before he finished speaking, there was a sudden sound of a vehicle crashing downstairs.
Chongxiao took the lead, opened the window and jumped out, just in time to see a car rushing out of the parking lot, causing pedestrians to scream in fear.
There was no time to find a car or call a taxi nearby. Following the skills he had developed over the past six months, Chongxiao concentrated all his strength on his legs.
Then, start sprinting!
In this land, individuals with extremely outstanding physical fitness are completely capable of doing things that are unimaginable for ordinary people... Lappland, who was previously arrested by Chongxiao, can burst out at an astonishing speed in a short period of time, not to mention those "hunters" who walk along the coast all year round.
Energy enhancement is a new "trick" that Chongxiao has discovered recently: it can greatly enhance the body's functions within a certain period of time, and it is not impossible to catch up with the speed of a car.
The streets in the central area of Shendu are wider and not as crowded as the outer urban areas, which allows the traitors to increase their power unscrupulously, making Chongxiao want to curse.
This state of his cannot last long. If he cannot catch up and intercept in a short time, he will be finished.
Fortunately, at this time, Lin Qingyan's voice came from behind...
"Chongxiao! Get in the car!"
Looking back, she was speeding towards us in a hospital ambulance, which was probably temporarily requisitioned in an emergency.
Chongxiao did not try to show off his bravery. He suddenly jumped into the air with both feet and landed right on the roof of the ambulance.
"Can this thing catch up?"
"Don't worry, Dayan never skimps on medical expenses!"
……
In the usually peaceful and tranquil central area of the capital, a jaw-dropping scene was taking place.
A car was fleeing towards the outer city at a speed twice the prescribed speed, and the car chasing it was not a police car, but an ambulance.
What's even more bizarre is that there was a person squatting steadily in the ambulance...
Lin Qingyan was not exaggerating. Although this ambulance was bulky, its power was quite amazing and was not inferior to those special vehicles that had been driving in the wilderness for a long time.
As for the car that was still fleeing frantically, even though it was running at full speed, the distance between the two was still gradually shortening.
"Try to hold steady. I can make it stop!"
"We have to catch him alive!"
"Know!"
Chongxiao, half squatting on the roof of the ambulance, slowly narrowed his eyes.
At this distance, the kinetic impact will not miss!
Strong self-confidence made him raise his right hand and begin to release blue energy.
The next moment, a blurred trajectory in the air and a violent collision sound appeared at the same time. The powerful kinetic energy accurately hit the rear of the car, directly knocking the entire car upright, and then it crashed into the green belt in the middle of the street.
Seeing this, Lin Qingyan in the driver's seat immediately turned the steering wheel and stepped on the brakes, allowing the ambulance to stop next to the green belt with smoke coming out of the tires.
Her driving skills are truly amazing...
The two men quickly got out of the car and rushed to the wreckage, pulling the traitor out of the car.
On the continent of Terra, where people have outstanding physical fitness, this level of collision generally won't kill people, not to mention that the traitor himself is also a special police officer.
It can be seen that apart from some scratches and bruises, he was fine, and even regained consciousness quickly.
"Tell me, who sent you here?"
“Humph…hahaha…”
The traitor with blood on his mouth smiled, seemingly not caring about his situation at all. "I don't know... what you are talking about..."
Chongxiao suddenly reached out and twisted his jaw... Although he didn't know if he would commit suicide by taking poison like in the movies, he still wanted to avoid it if possible.
Lin Qingyan didn't just stand there and watch. A flash of lightning burst out from her palm, causing the traitor to twitch violently for a few times, and then he fell to the ground.
This scene made Chongxiao's eyes light up.
Among the various elemental manipulation techniques of Originium, thunder magic is probably the most difficult, and although Lin Qingyan's move just now looked simple, it actually required an extremely delicate and meticulous level of control.
And... Chongxiao always felt that he should be able to use similar abilities.
"This is not the place for interrogation. I will take him back to the Dali Temple to see Lord Song. Chongxiao, you..."
"I won't go for now."
"……how?"
"Huang Xinglan."
Just this one name made Lin Qingyan nod solemnly.
Obviously, the girl was still in danger, and either they had to arrange for someone truly trustworthy to protect her, or she had to be moved directly to a safer place... But they couldn't decide these things, so all they could do was split up and protect her one by one.
After using the authority of the Dali Temple to notify the transportation department, Lin Qingyan threw the immobilized traitor into the ambulance and drove it back to the hospital.
The SWAT support team had already arrived here, but when they saw their colleagues being taken out of the car, they were obviously a little dazed...
"Sir, this is..."
"This man intends to silence the only survivor of the murder. I must take him back to the Dali Temple for a while."
Lin Qingyan speaks cleanly and concisely without any hesitation. His working style is very capable, but in the eyes of the special police, he seems a little arrogant.
After all, the special police who were assigned to be secret sentries must be senior officers with trusted abilities in the bureau. But now they are being carried around like a half-dead clawed beast, and the special police feel a little embarrassed.
Chongxiao ignored all this. He felt that Lin Qingyan could totally handle the situation, so after getting off the car, he went straight to Huang Xinglan's ward.
The film girl's mental state has improved a lot. She is sitting on the bed crying, but her expression is more determined than sad...
The doctors and nurses were very obedient and did not enter the ward.
"Ah...you are..."
"My name is Chongxiao, Inspector of Longmen. I am now cooperating with the Dali Temple's investigation... Anyway, please accept my condolences."
It was obvious that Huang Xinglan's hands, which were tightly grasping the bed sheet, trembled slightly.
"Also...and..."
"It's a pity that you're the only survivor."
Chongxiao didn't think there was any point in hiding it from her. After all, when he arrived, she and old man Feilin were the only ones left.
It is better to suffer a short pain than a long one. No matter how cruel the fact is, we have to face it eventually.
Huang Xinglan suddenly grabbed the bed sheet and covered his face.
Her body was shaking violently, but she didn't make much sound.
Logically speaking, what Chongxiao should have done at this time was to leave the room, wait for a while and then come back in, but he didn't think it was necessary.
Sure enough, after venting for half a minute, Huang Xinglan put down the bed sheet.
"Do you know... who did this?"
"It's not clear yet, but we'll find out."
