Chapter 29 A Phone Call from Headquarters

The people sent by Bai Yue finally found Fang Musheng.

Right in the old shopping center square, Fang Musheng was lying unconscious on the street and was found by two sanitation workers at around five in the morning.

Bai Yue led the team personally, and brought all the fighters with him, and rushed over fully armed.

He did see Fang Musheng, but he didn't expect that the old guy not only fainted, but also couldn't wake up at all.

In order to avoid causing unnecessary trouble, even though Fang Musheng had fainted, he was still taken back to the branch cell and kept under strict guard.

Bai Yue did not dare to be careless this time. She did not send the man to the hospital. Instead, she asked Xiao Ming to conduct a preliminary examination first, and also converted the cell into a Faraday cage.

Everyone was waiting outside the cell, overjoyed.

No one had held out any hope, but they didn't expect the old guy to faint. He was lying straight in the square of the old shopping center and was picked up by someone. No matter how hard they tried, they still couldn't find him.

Chu Yu was also outside the cell. Unlike everyone else, he did not look relieved.

It is impossible for a person to faint for no reason, and it is impossible for him to faint in an old shopping mall.

From this we can see that it's not that everyone is lucky, but someone deliberately sent this old guy to the door.

Because the cell door was open, Chu Yu could see the scene inside.

At this time, there were only Bai Yue and Xiao Ming in the cell. After a simple examination of Fang Musheng, Chu Yu always felt that Xiao Ming looked back at him intentionally or unintentionally.

After seeing Bai Yue and Xiao Ming whispering to each other, the former turned around and hooked his finger at him.

Chu Yu raised his hand and pointed at himself, looking confused.

I'm not studying medicine, why do you want me to come in?

Seeing Bai Yue nod, Chu Yu walked in confused.

Bai Yue glanced at Xiao Ming and said calmly, "Tell him the basic situation."

"Oh." Xiao Ming pointed at Fang Musheng who had fainted and said, "He has a lot of external injuries, but none of them are serious. He must have fallen or bumped into something. There are just some bruises. In addition, his right face is red and swollen. He must have been slapped."

"If we talk about the more serious injuries, it's that the three fingers on the right hand, the little finger, the ring finger, and the middle finger, were hit by hard objects. Judging from the residue, it should be something like a square brick."

Chu Yu frowned, "You mean, this old guy was first slapped in the face, and then three of his fingers were broken by someone using a brick?"

"That's what it looks like at the moment." Xiao Ming said with a puzzled look on his face. "This method is more like a fight between ordinary people, not something done by professionals."

Bai Yue, who was standing by, folded his arms and interrupted, "But if it was an ordinary person, how could he subdue Fang Musheng so easily? Although this old guy is old, don't forget that he has supernatural powers."

Xiao Ming nodded heavily. "This is also what we can't figure out. If he wasn't an ordinary person, he wouldn't have taken such a simple and crude method. And judging from the traces of his struggle, the person who subdued him also spent a lot of effort. But if it was an ordinary person, it would be impossible to subdue a person with superpowers."

After a pause, Xiao Ming said with a smile, "The funniest thing is that this is a bit like a robbery, because Fang Musheng's valuables were all taken away. There were ID cards in his rings, bracelets, and wallet, but no cash, including the shoes on his feet."

"Could it really be done by an ordinary person?" Chu Yu looked at Fang Musheng's bloody right palm and asked, "He only broke three fingers and has not woken up since he fainted?"

Bai Yue's lips were slightly curled up in a smile, but her eyes revealed an interesting meaning.

"That's why I asked you to come."

Chu Yu blinked, not understanding what it meant.

Bai Yue asked with a half-smile, "When you treated Wang Fan, you pierced the mastoid process with a needle and pierced into the skull, piercing the basilar artery and pushing air into it, thus causing locked-in syndrome. Who did you learn this method from?"

Chu Yu's face was filled with even more confusion, but he was a smart man, and his expression changed slightly after he thought about it.

"You mean, the reason why Fang Musheng is still unconscious is because of locked-in syndrome?"

"That's right!" Bai Yue pointed at an invisible needle hole on the back of Fang Musheng's head and said, "It's the same location as Wang Fan's, the same wound, and the same condition. He's not in a vegetative state, nor is he unconscious. However, the examination showed that he is conscious, but very weak. It can be said that his condition is 100% consistent with Wang Fan's."

Xiao Ming at the side nodded heavily, "Yes, judging from the various symptoms, it is indeed locked-in syndrome."

"Oh my god, big sister, I am innocent." Chu Yu immediately cried out, "So many people outside have seen it. I have never left the branch in the past few days. Don't try to throw dirty water on me."

"I know it wasn't you who did it. Didn't you hear me just ask you who you learned it from?" Bai Yue rolled her eyes, and the previous feeling resurfaced in her mind.

This kid is definitely hiding something from me.

Chu Yu pretended to be relieved and let out a sigh of relief, "I thought you were going to use me to get revenge."

"Stop talking nonsense and answer my question. Where did you learn locked-in syndrome?"

Chu Yu’s head is as big as a bucket.

If he were to tell the truth, Bai Yue would definitely not believe that he had learned it in a dream.

But if it was a lie, Bai Yue would be very sharp-minded and it would be hard to fool her.

Seeing Chu Yu remained silent, Bai Yue pressed on, "Although Fang Musheng has been found, who attacked him, why did they attack him, and why did they throw him into the old shopping mall? Many new questions have arisen. Chu Yu, as your superior, I hope you won't hide anything from me anymore. If you still want to fool me, don't blame me..."

Before Bai Yue could finish, Meng Yong shouted from a distance with a satellite phone, "Boss, it's a call from headquarters."

Bai Yue replied impatiently, "I'm busy. Ask headquarters to call back later."

"No, no, it's Mo Dujian calling."

"Eunuch Mo?" Bai Yue's expression changed slightly, and then he walked out quickly.

At this moment, Chu Yu was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan. It was not easy to make up a lie, especially to fool a smart person like Bai Yue. It was difficult.

A few minutes later, Bai Yue came back with an inexplicable look on her face. As soon as she entered the room, she looked at Chu Yu deeply.

Chu Yu laughed awkwardly, "Actually, I learned about locked-in syndrome from an overseas medical journal..."

"Okay, go back and have a good rest."

Chu Yu was completely stunned after being interrupted.

What does it mean?

Just now he looked like he was going to attack me if I didn't tell the truth, so why is he letting me go home and rest now?

Bai Yue said with reluctance, "Forget it. There's no need to rack your brains to make up a story. Go back and have a rest. I won't ask about this matter anymore."

"Sister, do you mean that I was fired?"

Seeing Chu Yu's fearful look, Bai Yue laughed in anger, "Why so much nonsense? Just take a rest when I tell you to. After a day's rest, go back to work as normal."

Although he didn't understand, Chu Yu didn't ask any more questions and had to leave the cell with a puzzled look on his face.

After Chu Yu left, Bai Yue stared at his back with a thoughtful look in her eyes.

Xiao Ming pulled Bai Yue's sleeve and said, "Aunt, let's not pursue this matter. Is it related to the phone call from Old Man Mo?"

Bai Yue nodded slightly and winked at Xiao Ming, "Let's go back to the office and talk about it."

The two of them returned to the office, and Bai Yue called Meng Yong in.

After the three of them sat down, Bai Yue looked at Meng Yong and asked directly, "Who is Chu Yu?"

"Ah?" Meng Yong scratched his head. "What do you mean?"

"Still pretending to be nice to me!" Bai Yue said angrily, "I just had a phone call with Mo Dujian."

Meng Yong asked tentatively, "Then what about the big boss? Will he let me speak?"

"Nonsense, why would I ask you if you don't let me speak?"

"Oh, that's right." Meng Yong smiled foolishly.

Xiao Ming sighed silently, doubting whether Meng Yong's IQ was over double digits.

If Mo Dujian had told my aunt, then there was no point for my aunt to ask.

Xiao Ming is smart, but Meng Yong is a little silly. He said cheerfully, "It's nothing, actually. Supervisor Mo came to me before I was transferred to the branch and told me two things."

"What's up?"

"One is that Chu Yu cannot be allowed to leave our branch, and the other is that his safety must be guaranteed, especially the second point."

"Can't leave, and at the same time ensure safety?" Bai Yue frowned slightly, a thoughtful look on her face.

As Meng Yong said, the most important thing is the second thing that Mo Dujian told him, which is to ensure Chu Yu's safety.

But if you are so concerned about Chu Yu's safety, why do you let him do this job with a relatively high risk factor?

What’s the difference between this and not letting lifeguards go into the water?

Or is it that Chu Yu is very important and crucial in dealing with supernatural events?

So we have to ensure his safety while still requiring him to do this job?

After thinking for a while, Bai Yue waved her hand and said, "Okay, I understand. Go ahead and get busy."

"Okay." Meng Yong nodded without any doubt, then stood up and left the office.

As Meng Yong left, Xiao Ming immediately asked curiously, "Aunt, what did old man Mo say to you? And who is Chu Yu?"

Bai Yue pinched her brows and smiled bitterly, "Aunt, I am also confused. Just now on the phone, Supervisor Mo did not ask any questions about Fang Musheng. He just said one sentence, asking me not to bother Chu Yu."

"Bother?" Xiao Ming opened his mouth wide. "Old man Mo called to tell Auntie not to bother Chu Yu?"

Bai Yue nodded helplessly.

Xiao Ming asked, "How did Old Man Mo know Chu Yu? Also, why does the word entanglement sound weird?"

"I'm also wondering about this." Bai Yue spread her hands and said, "And Meng Yong just said that when Chu Yu first took office a year ago, Supervisor Mo privately explained it."
