The scene that suddenly appeared before his eyes was too creepy and strange!
At this moment, Yang Hu completely forgot that he was an ability user, and could only shiver all over.
Ability user? So what?
Wang Tao was also an ability user, and his ability coefficient was even higher than his own!
But now there was a gleaming surgical knife stabbed in his chest, and he was being dragged on the ground like a dead dog.
Yang Hu leaned back against the stairs behind him and retreated back a few steps.
He desperately wanted to stand up, but his legs just wouldn't listen to him.
Lu Yuan casually threw down the leg he was holding Wang Tao by, and his whole body seemed weightless as he gently walked in front of Yang Hu.
Seeing the pathological smile on Lu Yuan's face, Yang Hu stammered in despair, "I, I didn't mean any harm, please, spare me..."
"No malicious intent?"
Lu Yuan reached into the side pocket of his white coat, and when he took it out, he was already holding a gleaming, slender surgical knife.
"No malice, then why did you sneak into my clinic in the middle of the night?"
"Not to mention, you're armed."
As soon as he heard Lu Yuan say this, Yang Hu threw the gun on him out like lightning, and his eyes turned as he hurriedly said, "I, I'm here to see a doctor! I'm not feeling well!"
"Heh heh..."
However, Lu Yuan, with a demonic smile on his face, completely ignored his reply and walked step by step towards Yang Hu.
In the moment of utter despair, a flash of inspiration came to Yang Hu. He fumbled frantically in his shirt pocket for a while before finally taking out a slip of paper with a number on it, holding it above his head and saying in a crying voice, "Doctor, I, I really am here to see a doctor, I'm a patient..."
Lu Yuan, who had been smiling coldly, suddenly froze when he saw the slip of paper, and then...
"What's wrong?"
Yang Hu miraculously heard a hint of warmth in Lu Yuan's voice!
He immediately let out a long sigh of relief. Thinking of his rheumatism in his left leg, he hurriedly said, "Doctor Lu, I, I have rheumatism in my left leg. It gets inexplicably sore on rainy days. This-"
Yang Hu stopped mid-sentence when he saw the hint of warmth that had just appeared in Lu Yuan's smile turn into a touch of morbidity again.
At this moment, Yang Hu's whole body shuddered.
Lu Yuan asked with a smile, "How did you know my surname is Lu?"
Yang Hu raised his trembling hand and pointed downstairs, saying in terror, "I'm sorry, Dr. Lu, I, I went into your office without your permission..."
Lu Yuan smiled and said gently, "It's okay. Rheumatism can be permanently cured by replacing the leg's metal joints. Want to get it replaced?"
Want to replace it?
To Yang Hu, those three words were no different from "Want to live?"
Although the prosthetic limb certainly wouldn't be as flexible as his original limb, right now...
Yang Hu secretly glanced at Wang Tao lying dead-eyed on the ground behind Lu Yuan, and silently made a decision in his heart.
Since it was a matter of life and death, he didn't mind spending some money.
After all, it was to stay alive, nothing to be ashamed of.
"Dr. Lu, I'll do the replacement! Thank you!"
Lu Yuan nodded, walked past Yang Hu and went upstairs. "Come with me."
Yang Hu tried several times before he could barely stand up from the ground. As he left, he saw Wang Tao's corpse being slowly dragged away by something in the first floor hallway. This was followed by the sound of splashing water and mopping.
Just hearing the sounds, Yang Hu could guess how skilled the man's actions were at this moment.
Upstairs, Lu Yuan stood in front of two operating rooms, deep in thought. Judging from his expression, he seemed to be struggling with something.
A minute later, Lu Yuan turned to Yang Hu and asked, "Do you want operating room number three or number four?"
"Hmm?"
When Yang Hu heard this, the will to survive burst out of him. He immediately said "Number three" - he was just thinking that the number "four" sounded unlucky.
Lu Yuan's smile reappeared. He said lightly, "Very good!"
...
Two hours passed, and it was still dark outside.
The only lit room in the entire clinic was operating room number three. Everywhere else was still pitch black.
Soon, the lights in operating room number three went out.
For Lu Yuan, replacing just a leg joint prosthesis didn't take very long at all.
Lu Yuan pushed out a mobile hospital bed from the operating room with Yang Hu lying on it, and sent him back to the patient room on the third floor.
After arriving in the ward, Lu Yuan told Yang Hu "Rest well", then turned around to leave.
"Dr. Lu, about the fee..."
Since he had been under local anesthesia, Yang Hu was still conscious at this point.
When he asked this question, he had already mentally prepared himself for Lu Yuan to make an exorbitant demand - after all, it was money to buy back his life.
However, Lu Yuan just glanced back at him with a smile. "It's free, no charge."
"Free?!"
Instantly, Yang Hu's expression changed.
Lu Yuan nodded. "For special customers, it has always been free here."
Yang Hu didn't say anything more. He watched Lu Yuan's departing back, and silently made a decision in his heart.
Five minutes later, Yang Hu got out of bed and went to the window.
The entire abandoned medical school was still shrouded in the vast night, very quiet, with only occasional chirping and the whooshing sound of the night wind.
Looking down at the height of the third floor, Yang Hu gritted his teeth, and disregarding the wound that had just been stitched up, he jumped out of the third floor!
Bang!
The moment Yang Hu hit the ground, a trace of a pathological smile appeared on Lu Yuan's face as he had just returned to his rest area on the first floor.
But he didn't do anything, just took out something that looked like a game controller and fiddled with it a few times.
Then he went to the pantry alone, opened the refrigerator.
Inside were the snacks Liu Yuan had prepared for him when she got off work.
A few steamed buns, half a steamer of xiaolongbao, a small bowl of rice, two small side dishes - Kung Pao Chicken and stir-fried celery, a steamed egg custard, two chicken wings, and a braised pig's knuckle...
"Tonight's snack is very rich..."
It was as if he was talking to himself, but also as if he was talking to someone. Lu Yuan put everything into the microwave to heat up, then sat down with his eyes closed and started silently counting.
"One, two, three, four..."
...
After jumping down from the third floor ward, Yang Hu didn't seem like someone who had just undergone surgery at all. With the will to survive fully erupting, he desperately ran towards the gate of the medical school!
From the main building of the clinic to the school gate was about 700-800 meters. In just a few dozen seconds, Yang Hu had already covered half the distance!
This speed was quite astounding even for the ability user Yang Hu!
Feeling his limping left leg, Yang Hu couldn't help but curse silently - this leg fitted with a prosthetic joint was getting in the way!
Wait!
Left leg?!
Yang Hu looked down and saw that the leg he had surgery on was clearly his right leg!!
And looking at the way he was running, it was clear that his right leg was sprinting at full force, but because his right leg was too fast, his left leg couldn't keep up, giving him the feeling of limping!
"Hiss--"
Looking at his legs that were clearly moving at different rhythms, countless images flashed through Yang Hu's mind!
Among them were the confessions from the mercenaries who had captured Zhang San, as well as the video of Xiao Wu suddenly assassinating a high-ranking member of the organization!
At this moment, Yang Hu understood!
The one who had boosted Zhang San and Xiao Wu's strength was none other than Dr. Lu who had just operated on him!
It was definitely not that Tianyu Hospital!
