Chapter 562: Chapter 366: Irrelevant to Me_1

Although these gift boxes exuded tempting aromas of food, the scent of meat.

But these boxes weren’t meant to be easily unwrapped.

Feng Yi rubbed his temples.

He had indeed wanted to spend some time here, but now wasn’t the appropriate time.

For one thing, there was a major case to investigate here, and it wasn’t convenient for him to get involved.

Secondly, he still had to focus on the Joint Defense Bureau; the information he could dig up from the Joint Defense Bureau might not be available from other organizations. He decided to gain experience with the Joint Defense Bureau first.

He could consider touring the area during his next vacation.

Not looking, not thinking, putting aside all distractions, Feng Yi went to sleep first.

Staying awake made it too easy to feel hungry; energy-saving hibernation mode was needed.

Feng Yi rested quickly, but it wasn’t so easy for the others.

After Feng Yi had left, those few big shots found another location and held another meeting, as there had been new developments in the case they were investigating.

In addition, while interrogating those they had intercepted midway, they had come across some strange information.

"Those guys, waiting in ambush en route and getting wasted along with their car before they could act, yet they didn’t even see the people who attacked them? The car is in such a state!"

"One of them said they heard rustling sounds."

"Rustling sounds?"

"The team investigating the scene sent back footage showing some suspicious traces, but it’s unclear what they are. It’s speculated that it might be some kind of tool from the Ancestral Factory."

"A mode of transport? A weapon? Could it be a secret weapon developed by the Ancestral Factory themselves?"

"Isn’t the Ancestral Factory known for researching drugs? I haven’t heard of them expanding into mechanical or electronic devices."

"With the financial power of the Ancestral Factory, setting up a secret research base would be a piece of cake; even if they didn’t develop it themselves, it’s possible they invested in someone else’s research."

"Should we ask Feng Yi again?"

"He has business ties with the Ancestral Factory; he might not tell us."

"Alright, no matter how strong the protection from the Ancestral Factory is, the most important thing for us now is to focus on cracking the case!"

"Right, all those things are secondary. Because of the incident in the parking lot, we’ve uncovered two moles; one more screening and we can take action."

Until the sky began to brighten, these individuals only took brief rests intermittently, spending most of their time working.

"The medical team just sent the latest news that the toxins in A’wang’s body are being neutralized quickly by the medication. Based on preliminary estimates, he should wake up in two hours. Though his poisoning has been resolved, his injuries are so severe that he’ll need a long time to recover."

"As long as his life is saved, that’s what matters."

After a pause, the man spoke with a complex tone, "The head of the medical team just told me, the drug from the Ancestral Factory is incredible!"

For a top talent to describe it as "incredible" shows just how powerful the drug is!

The effect of the drug indeed shocked them; otherwise, they wouldn’t be thinking about poaching.

Yes, their funding had become somewhat more substantial now.

But even with funding and equipment, special resources were still hard to come by!

Like drugs.

Whether it’s the front lines or other emergency situations, special drugs are very important!

For instance, the one bitten by a new species of sea snake—without the corresponding antivenom serum, stabilizing the condition in a short period of time was very dangerous.

Or like this time, where A’wang’s life was entirely reliant on this drug for his recovery.

In certain academic areas and when it comes to speaking rights on particular medications, the Ancestral Factory is beyond comparison with other companies and institutions. Globally speaking, they’re irreplaceable!

Of course, such a special company receives special treatment!

Previously, they didn’t know where to begin, and in times of need, they had to seek help from others, pulling strings where they could.

And even if they could ask someone to contact President Yue and his wife...

One would either be in the lab or on their way to the lab.

The other, only interested in benefits and extremely cunning.

So Feng Yi really was a very special talent!

Such an excellent connection—if possible, it was certainly worth fighting for!

Even if they couldn’t win him over, they needed to make Feng Yi feel the spring-like care of all the departments in the region!

"We’re about to begin the arrest operation; let’s send Feng Yi back first."

"Right, we can’t let him get hurt here!"

"The number of personnel at the local Joint Defense Bureau is limited, and they’re too busy to spare anyone to send Feng Yi back, so our brother units have helped take on the task!"

"Old Yuan, don’t give us the cold shoulder. Your Special Task Force has even fewer people and more pressing tasks. Focus on your own cases!"

The smuggling issue would be handled by the people from the regional branch of the Joint Defense Bureau. Team Leader Yuan’s Special Task Force was for investigating the poison found in A’wang’s system.

Based on what’s been found so far, it’s very likely that this poison is a dangerous toxin created by artificially combining plant and animal poisons.

Everyone has their hands full with tasks, and Team Leader Yuan really can’t afford to pull too many people to escort Feng Yi back.

Feng Yi had a decent sleep, undisturbed, and upon waking and going out, someone immediately took him to have breakfast, which he didn’t have to pay for as someone had already paid in advance.

After breakfast, Feng Yi was called over by Old Yuan.

"Pack up your things. I’ve arranged for someone to take you back to Tuo Jia Town, and then you must leave immediately by plane," Team Leader Yuan said with a serious expression.

Feng Yi picked up some information from Old Yuan’s words.

They were probably about to take action here, and his staying could easily get him embroiled again. It’s best for unrelated parties to evacuate first to avoid getting caught up in it like last night.

Therefore, Feng Yi decisively said, "Okay! Oh right, how is A’wang doing? One of our doctors is there to record his medication usage, and I don’t know if the records are complete yet."

The patient’s condition was special, and Wu was there taking notes on medication usage. Without mobile phones or other communication tools allowed, Feng Yi had no idea about the situation.

Team Leader Yuan said, "A’wang has awakened. You can contact your doctor to ask about it."

"Awake? Can I go see him?" Feng Yi admired the patient and wanted to visit him before leaving, and also to check on Wu’s progress.

Team Leader Yuan did not agree immediately, saying, "I’ll ask first."

A’wang was a special case, and not just anyone could visit him.

After making a call, Team Leader Yuan came back and said, "You can visit him in the hospital, for ten minutes. He’s awake now but still hasn’t recovered mentally. Several people have applied to visit today, so the time for each visitor has been limited."

Feng Yi then asked, "Can I take him some fruits or flowers?"

Team Leader Yuan: "That’s not allowed. Don’t bring anything, and leave your cell phone outside. I’ll send someone to take you there shortly."

Feng Yi: "Alright."

He went straight to the hospital.

Upon arrival, he received a message from Wu, saying the medication record was almost done, and she had just gotten hold of her phone. The critical part of the medication record was complete, and she was ready to leave at any time.

Feng Yi told Wu to rest at the dormitory first.

He arrived at the protective care room where A’wang was.

Just before him, a visitor had emerged from the room.

This person was about the same age as Old Yuan but lacked Old Yuan’s spirited aura. There was excitement in his eyes, but also the weariness and experienced look of someone who had seen life and death.

The person escorting Feng Yi over said, "The man who just left was a comrade of A’wang’s parents from the military. He took care of A’wang a lot after retiring from injury not long ago."

Feng Yi didn’t ask further and looked toward the protective care room.

Not needing to wear a protective suit, he went straight in once allowed.

The young man who had been lying unconscious on the hospital bed the previous night now had his eyes open and showed a slight increase in vitality, but was still very fragile and needed time to recover.

A’wang’s eyes flickered with gratitude when he saw Feng Yi; he knew it was Feng Yi who had brought the medicine.

"Thank you," he said with a raspy voice, weak but with clear enunciation.

"Don’t mention it, I did what I should," Feng Yi replied.

A’wang was planning to say a bit more, but his voice was getting hard to hear.

His fingers gestured for Feng Yi to come closer. Though his voice was much softer than before, Feng Yi could still hear him clearly:

"Leave as soon as possible!"

"Be on your guard! If you encounter... the poaching gang, don’t show... any unnecessary kindness!"

A’wang and the poachers could be considered archenemies, and he was well aware of their craziness.

When poachers and anti-poaching forces clashed, it was never without casualties.

A’wang had more to say, but he could no longer make a sound.

Feng Yi said, "Don’t worry, I understand what you mean. I’m about to leave here soon and will take a flight immediately. The matters here won’t involve me anymore. You rest first, focus on getting better."

After leaving the protective care room, Feng Yi contacted Jia and Wu to prepare for their departure.

He also sent a message to Old Yuan about leaving.

But Old Yuan called directly: "Don’t use the car from last time. I’ve arranged for a helicopter and a car for you, to take you to Tuo Jia Town."

Feng Yi replied, "No need. Just give us a car. President Yue from Ancestral Factory said he had it arranged. Really, you can ask him if you don’t believe me!"

Shortly after, Yue Gongyang confirmed over the phone with Old Yuan, "...That’s right! You don’t need to escort us. If I asked Feng Yi to help deliver the medicine, of course, I am responsible for his safety to and from the destination! Go ahead with your own work."

Since Yue Gongyang was so certain, the big shots including Old Yuan didn’t insist further. They provided Feng Yi with a car, not new, but sturdier than the previous SUVs.

Although the big shots didn’t send an escort, knowing that Yue Gongyang had arrangements, they kept an eye out; there were teams investigating the route in two places.

They were curious to see what kind of force Ancestral Factory had dispatched to ensure Feng Yi’s safe travel.

And then, they found nothing at all!
