"Brother, why did Tang Yuan use a compass and ruler to pin down Wu Qi and An Yu? Lin Qian thought about it all the way and still couldn't figure it out."
"They hurt her with those things, and they got away with it!" Yan Kongyue's voice was as cold as ice.
"That's right. The forensic doctor found hair, a compass, a ruler, a cigarette butt, and a piece of mop handle from Tang Yuan's body." Lin Zhuo stared out the car window, silently praying that such cruel things would never happen again.
To break the silence, Lin Zhuo took Lin Qian and Yan Kongyue out for barbecue. By the time they got home, dawn was approaching.
Wei He had been staying at the Tang family’s house, helping Tang Zhi handle her sister’s affairs.
After this incident, Yan Kongyue finally quieted down for a few days. She spent her time guiding Lin Sheng in his medical skills, playing chess with the old man, and mostly basking in the sun in the garden. Lin Qian had tried several times to take her out for fun but was ruthlessly rejected each time.
When Tang Yuan was taken away by Gui Jiang Jun, many police officers witnessed it. Lin Zhuo was asked about Yan Kongyue the most at the station every day. He handled everything coldly. He knew that even if the Seventh Bureau didn't have the Bai Family's backing, Yan Kongyue wouldn't let it go. He also understood that as long as there was something needed from her at the bureau, she wouldn't ignore it.
Fortunately, Gu Zhenhua had ordered that this matter must not be leaked. No, Yan Kongyue certainly wouldn’t have good days ahead either.
Another sunny day arrived. Yan Kongyue lay on a rocking chair; the changing weather had no effect on her, but others were not so fortunate.
"Yan Kongyue," Lin Sheng tentatively called out.
"Sixth Brother, what's wrong?"
Just now my master called and said that Old Man Bai's youngest grandson has been in a coma for several days. Many renowned doctors from both domestic and abroad have been consulted, but they all said they couldn't treat him. They found my master, who felt he couldn't refuse and decided to go see him tomorrow.
"Do you want to go?"
My master knows that the Bai Family harmed Fourth Brother but didn’t ask me to go with him. However, I am a healer; shouldn't a healer only have patients in their eyes?
"You don’t know what to do?"
"Yeah!" Lin Sheng felt conflicted. He belonged to the Lin Family and was also a healer; whether he went or not weighed heavily on his mind. He could only come to Yan Kongyue for guidance.
"Lin Sheng!" There was no trace of emotion in Yan Kongyue's voice.
Hearing his full name called by Yan Kongyue made his back straighten instantly.
"First of all, your identity is that of a Lin Family member; secondly, you are Dr. Lin. The Bai Family didn't just hurt your Fourth Brother; they harmed the entire Lin Family. There’s an old saying: mercy towards enemies is cruelty towards oneself. Besides, your master didn’t give you a choice; why should you entangle yourself in this?"
"I..."
"And no one can cure his illness; even if you go, it would be pointless! Yes, whether you go or not reflects your attitude. If you go, you'll only be ridiculed and humiliated by the Bai Family; they won’t see you as compassionate but will instead call you a fool."
Lin Sheng had thought of this too and found the answer he wanted. He stopped feeling conflicted and plopped down on a stone beside the rocking chair: "Yan Kongyue, if I weren't a healer, I definitely wouldn't be so torn."
"You are not the only doctor; it's best not to get involved in this matter. The Bai Family belongs to the Xuanmen, and the Xuanmen has its own medical practices. Right now, they are just desperate and looking for any doctor. They know very well why that person is in a coma; they are just trying to shift the blame."
"Is his illness really incurable?"
"Yes!"
"And you can't cure him either?" Yan Kongyue glanced at Lin Sheng.
"I'm just curious!"
"Why should I treat him? If I cure him, he might go harm others."
"Exactly. For the safety of more people, we shouldn't treat him."
"Do you want to know why he is in a coma?" Yan Kongyue narrowed his eyes.
"I do!"
"He isn't just in a coma; he was backfired by Nagi Soul Decision, injuring his soul. The Bai Family can't even treat him, so how could an ordinary doctor possibly do it?"
"Should I tell my master not to go?"
"It would be best if you told him not to go. That person has been backfired, and anyone who gets close to him will be in trouble."
"Is it that serious?"
"Absolutely!"
"Then I'll call my master right now and tell him not to go."
"He probably won't want to refuse. Here, I'll give you a pill; secretly drop it into your master's drink."
"What kind of pill?"
"It's not poison; don't you trust me?"
"I do!"
Yan Kongyue took out a small vial and poured out a white pill.
"Why does it have no taste?"
