Special Forces Medic

Chapter 951 920: Questioned Origins

For some reason, Xiao Lin's left hand, which had always been uneasy, started to tremble. The lights in the operating room were still flashing, and he knew Hua Qingyi would be fine. The unease in his heart did not stem from the person inside. Who was so close to him to make him feel uneasy and sad instantly? He raised his head to look at the fading daylight, where patches of red clouds were devoured by darkness amidst dots of gold.

Finally, the light in front of the operating room door went off, and Hua Qingyi was pushed out lying on the bed. The anesthesia hadn't completely worn off, but he was already opening his eyes searching for something.

"I just heard the doctor say I have to lie here for a month. Why weren't you the one to perform the surgery?" The person who behaved like a child throwing a tantrum immediately complained upon finding Xiao Lin, causing the doctor who came out with him to feel awkward.

"One month? That's a bit short; let's add another fifteen days," Xiao Lin said seriously, discussing with the doctor, completely ignoring Hua Qingyi.

"Hey, how can you, one or two months, how can I lie for that long!"

"If you don't want to stay that long, obediently listen to the nurse sister. Seeing you so energetic puts me at ease." Before Hua Qingyi was pushed into an independent ward, Xiao Lin stopped in his tracks, walked to the other end, and guarded there alone for a long time.

"I've already deployed my own people nearby, and before you leave, I must tell you something." With a flick of his eyes, Yelv Shou revealed his neck exposed by his high ponytail, as if luring a Vampire visit. Faintly visible blood vessels pulsated quietly on his neck. "Xiao Ya has already boarded a plane to the United States according to the master's arrangement, so you still have time to decide whether to go or not. Besides, the former 'Underground City' City Lord has disappeared, and even I cannot trace his whereabouts."

"To the airport!"

Directly entering the plane from the green channel, Xiao Ya, arranged in the first-class cabin, numbly turned towards the window. Delivered directly from Liger City to the plane, a series of arrangements were foolproof, not without his painstaking planning. He let out a cold laugh, swept his gaze over the planes on the tarmac, and closed his eyes until someone sat beside him, causing him to suddenly glance at her.

"It's you!"

"Don't be surprised. Like you, I was forcibly sent to the United States, and as one of the conditions, I must follow you. So seeing me is not surprising. You will see me often for a period."

"Haha, having Dragon Soul's top Military Advisor by my side is quite a favor indeed." Xiao Ya sneered at Lian and continued pretending to sleep.

"Whether you're willing or not, it's the reality; we're just bait." Lian's mood was no better than Xiao Ya's. Xiao Ya closed his eyes and grunted coldly a few times. Such extravagant arrangements were merely to let someone else answer the United States back to the Xiao Family. Was it necessary?

People filed into the cabin, and when the cabin started to depressurize, they were about to leave this land. "We will go our separate ways upon arrival."

"I'd like that too, but I can tell you clearly, it's unlikely." Lian browsed magazines while drinking airplane juice. In the first-class cabin, it was just the two of them. With such grand arrangements here, those in the back lacked Xiao Zhenfeng's spies. "Believe it or not, there are spies everywhere in the economy class."

"First row D seat, middle aisle seats in the third row, and there's more I don't need to mention."

Lian laughed. "We'll be here together for dozens of hours; unable to shake off, let's be allies."

The airplane finally took off from the runway. The people in the waiting room watched the tail climb slowly into the sky in silent silence. Soon after, another airplane accelerated on the runway and soared into the clouds, flying in another direction.

"We entered the Miao Village from Yun Nan; Elder Miao has relocated the entire Miao Family to Guang Xi. The original village was completely sealed due to the virus. After the experts evacuated, the government ordered the entire village burned to eliminate virus transmission. In fact, it hasn't received any effective suppression and instead adopted the most intense method to solve the problem."

"You're saying that aside from the uninfected, everyone else was killed and their corpses destroyed."

"It should be like that. The equation you submitted never reached the local, and those self-righteous people didn't adopt your method, delaying the illness."

"Damn it!"

"Admittedly, we're quite insignificant regarding certain matters," Yelv Shou seemed to have a broader view than Xiao Lin. "You know the purpose of the master's arrangement for Xiao Ya's trip to the United States, but I think it's not just to urge you; there's something I didn't tell you. The Military Advisor of Dragon Soul is accompanying there too."

"He's trying to stop me from pursuing what happened more than a decade ago, forcing me to leave."

"You wouldn't be so obedient." Yelv Shou looked back at the economy cabin behind them but the curtain blocked the view. Aside from the two of them in the first-class cabin, two others were present. He lowered his voice to speak softly in Xiao Lin's ear. "I did find something, but the information source wasn't from a reliable channel."

"What have you found?"

"Lin, if you find out all your busy efforts were in vain, what would you do?"

"Just say what it is, what news did you hear?"

"You might not be part of the Xiao Family," Yelv Shou seemed to struggle for a long time before diplomatically revealing what he'd heard. "I can't deny this message may very well be from some intention, but I..."

"I know what you mean."

"Did you know from the start?" Xiao Lin's calmness made Yelv Shou's eyes widen.

"I just want to know the truth. It was supposed to be a simple matter, made so complicated by the old man, disrupting me essentially to prevent further investigation. His rush to put me on the throne had ulterior motives. I have doubted my identity before, but many things remain unclear to me. If I'm not part of the Xiao Family, then who am I? I want to know that."

"This is just an unreliable message."

"Any kind of unreliability originates from its source. How can there be herds of cattle without some breeze blowing through even if it's an enemy-spread rumor has its roots." A bout of turbulence abruptly interrupted their conversation, and from the speakers came the captain's warning as they were traversing a storm zone. Exclamations came from the economy cabin, but for Xiao Lin, such occurrences were commonplace. He flatly refused the so-called parting letter from the air stewardess. (To be continued.
