106. Chapter 106: Zhang Lei's Action

After sending Li Yi and Lin Yue away, the anger on Zhang Lei's face could no longer be covered. At this moment, he was like a mad lion, wishing he could immediately find that Wei Bin and kill all those wanderers who were entrenched in the Waste City District.

"Everyone, our investigator Wang Wang Jian is dead, and Chen Hao, who was an external combatant, also died here. Even Li Yi was seriously injured and almost folded here... This is not an accident, but a premeditated siege."

At this moment, Zhang Lei turned around, his gaze scanning the others with anger.

Zhang Zhang Zhixiong, Priest Peter, and other cultivators who rushed to support were all full of anger, empathizing with Zhang Lei's mood.

"I, Zhang Lei, as the team leader of the Investigation Bureau, have to consider the overall situation many times, but this time, the other party has already stepped on my bottom line. I don't care what their purpose or reason is. From today on, I, Zhang Lei, am not finished with them. If you are willing to support me, from today on, put aside your work for the time being and do only one thing: take revenge."

Zhang Lei's voice was like muffled thunder, as if it were about to explode. Everyone could feel the anger in it: "Wei Bin must die, and the wanderers in the Waste City District must be killed, not a single one left. If we don't wipe out this group of people, our Investigation Bureau will never be able to stand straight. Otherwise, if they dare to surround and kill investigators today, they will dare to rush into the training base to grab mystic objects in the future."

"Zhang Zhang Zhixiong, send a letter to Li Li Shaoqing of the Cultivator

"Yes, Captain," Zhang Wang Jian Gong replied immediately, a chill running through his heart.

Zhang Lei pointed at a corpse and added, "Also, this corpse of an Inspiration Realm cultivator does not belong to the drifters. Does anyone recognize him? Give me the shortest time possible to find out. I want to know his entire identity, background, and history. This case of the investigators being besieged is inseparable from this person."

Having handled cases for many years with rich experience, he saw at a glance that Yang Ye's corpse was not right.

"Captain, I recognize this person. His name is Yang Ye, and he is the uncle of that Yang Yi Long." Suddenly, an investigator named Fu Bing recognized the body's identity and spoke up immediately.

Yang Yi Long's uncle?

Zhang Lei narrowed his eyes slightly, and a scene from back then immediately flashed through his mind.

Li Yi and Yang Yi Long had a conflict.

He remembered Li Yi saying that Yang Yi Long had used some dishonorable means to forcibly learn one of his martial arts techniques.

If that were the case, Yang Yi Long should have been the one gaining the advantage. Why would he send Yang Ye to kill Li Yi? There was no reason for someone who had already gained the upper hand to take the initiative to kill.

Could it be that he was harboring a grudge after failing to seize the Mystic Object last time?

Or perhaps he had discovered that Li Yi's cultivation potential was immense and wanted to nip a potential enemy in the bud?

All of these were motives for murder; after all, the vast majority of cultivators had abnormal thought processes.

But for Zhang Lei, that was no longer important; he only needed to confirm the perpetrator's identity and background.

Zhang Lei immediately said coldly, "Is the deceased one of Yang Yi Long's men? Then he cannot escape responsibility for this matter either. I remember the Yang family does business in Tianchang City and has many ventures. Very well, then we shall start with the Yang family. Seal off all properties under the Yang family's name, and bring all suspicious personnel related to Yang Ye back to the Investigation Bureau for questioning. Once it is verified that they are involved in Yang Ye's siege of the investigators, handle it strictly. If they can be executed, execute them directly; don't bother with any procedures."

"Fu Bing, you handle this matter."

"No problem, Captain." Fu Bing nodded; this task was not difficult.

After all, it was just arresting suspects, and the people of the Yang family wouldn't dare to resist.

"Daoist Priest Peter, I'll trouble you for a trip to invite Gu Gu Mengping, who is an external combatant. He is a Spirit Perception Realm expert. This time we are going to arrest Yang Yi Long and bring him back to the Investigation Bureau; we need enough manpower." Subsequently, Zhang Lei continued to make arrangements.

"No problem. This Daoist has long found that Yang fellow unpleasant. Since he dared to besiege our investigators, I might as well let my gun 'misfire' when we arrest him and accidentally finish him off, saving us from future trouble." Daoist Priest Peter also had a fiery temper and wanted to finish off the suspect, Yang Yi Long, as soon as he spoke.

"If he is unwilling to assist in the investigation, I will provoke him to make a move, and then I will finish him off directly. He has a grudge against Li Yi and is suspected of murdering our investigators; he will be a hidden danger sooner or later," Zhang Lei said coldly, actually somewhat tacitly approving of Daoist Priest Peter's behavior.

If they didn't kill one to warn a hundred, how could the Investigation Bureau establish its authority and suppress those restless cultivators?

What's more, Li Yi had saved the lives of most of the investigators in the last mission. Now that he had been beaten into this state, if the Investigation Bureau didn't show some stance, the morale of the people would collapse.

Both publicly and privately, Zhang Lei could not let this matter rest.

And just as Zhang Lei was organizing a revenge operation, Li Yi had already been sent back to the training base by Zheng Gong, who was driving.

The training base was very close to the abandoned city area, and the medical equipment inside was very complete, and the doctors' skills were also very good. Being sent to the training base was equivalent to being sent to the best hospital in the whole city.

As soon as Zheng Gong's vehicle arrived, doctors with nursing staff immediately prepared stretchers and a series of emergency equipment.

"Send him to the operating room, be quick," the doctor said immediately after just a brief glance.

Lin Yue didn't speak, just followed along the whole way.

It wasn't until they were about to enter the operating room that she was stopped by the doctor: "Family members, please wait outside. We will definitely send Li Yi out safely."

"I'll leave everything to you, Doctor." Lin Yue did not leave at this moment but kept watch outside the operating room.

"Is my condition very serious?" Li Yi looked at himself being sent onto the operating table and said somewhat uneasily.

The doctor said, "You have fractures in many parts of your body, some of which are even comminuted fractures, and there are signs of internal organ rupture and bleeding. I need to give you a comprehensive examination to determine your physical condition. Don't worry, I won't let you die on the operating table."

"That's good." Li Yi breathed a slight sigh of relief.

As the doctor continued to examine him, the furrow in his brow also relaxed slightly.

The situation was better than imagined.

The external injuries were tragic, with various fractures, but the internal organ condition was much better. It should be that the special clothing he was wearing when he fought with others played a cushioning role, reducing most of the damage. Besides that, there were traces of Li Yi having taken Extraordinary Water. Under the repair of this medicinal liquid, some internal injuries that could have been fatal miraculously turned into minor injuries.

"That bottle of Extraordinary Water of yours really saved your life. Otherwise, let alone being sent to the training base, your body would have already gone cold halfway there." The doctor relaxed a lot now, and his tone was no longer so serious.

If most of them were just external injuries, then for a cultivator, they didn't count as injuries.

Which cultivator sent here didn't have broken bones and tendons?

"This is also thanks to your care last time, Doctor. If you hadn't secretly slipped me a bottle of Extraordinary Water, I would have been killed by someone long ago."

Li Yi squeezed out a smile, but his eyelids became heavier and heavier. Finally, he realized that he didn't know when the anesthesiologist had already given him a shot of anesthetic.

"Stop talking nonsense. I didn't give you any Extraordinary Water. Today is also our first meeting; we didn't know each other at all before. Everything is just a hallucination before you fell into a coma. You'll be clear-headed after a sleep." The doctor's face didn't turn red and his heart didn't beat fast; he refused to admit this matter to the death.

There were so many people watching here; if it were spread out, people would talk.

Li Yi still wanted to speak, but he had already been completely anesthetized and had no sensation.

Although his physical condition was better than imagined, that was only because there was no life danger. However, to fully recover, it wouldn't work without a major surgery.

The surgery lasted for a full twelve hours and didn't end until the afternoon of the next day.

Of course, the surgery didn't need that much time.

But for the sake of safety, the doctor worked overtime specifically, choosing to observe more to avoid the condition suddenly worsening.

It wasn't until it was confirmed that Li Yi was no longer in danger that he was pushed out of the operating room.

"Doctor, how is Li Yi's condition?"

At the door, Lin Yue was still keeping watch. Not only did she not leave, but she also hadn't slept from the surgery until now. Fortunately, she was a cultivator with abundant energy, so she could hold up even after staying up all night.

"The condition is still good. Next, he must be hospitalized for recuperation for at least half a month. He cannot do strenuous exercise, and even less can he fight with others," the doctor said. "Are you Li Yi's family member? I suggest you stay at the training base for these ten days to facilitate taking care of the patient's daily life at any time."

"No problem, Doctor." Lin Yue nodded.

The doctor instructed an assistant, "Take him to Ward No. 1 for admission."

Lin Yue immediately pushed Li Yi and, under the guidance of that assistant, headed to the ward for recuperation.

The ward was large, spacious, and bright. Not only were there medical staff on duty twenty-four hours a day, but there was also a room for accompanying family members, and various equipment was complete. Obviously, the medical environment here was much better than in a hospital.

Lin Yue carefully transferred Li Yi, who was covered in bandages and smelled of medicine, to the hospital bed, and only then did she start to pick up her mobile phone to tell her family that she had something to do and wouldn't be going back for a period of time, having prepared to accompany him here.

"Sister Lin."

At this moment, Li Yi woke up. He opened his eyes and saw himself lying on the hospital bed, and then he also saw Lin Yue who was sending a message on the side.

"Li Yi, you're awake."

Lin Yue immediately put down her phone and said, "The doctor just said you're fine, just need to recuperate for ten days or half a month. Don't worry, I will take care of you here during this time. In addition, I also plan to contact your relatives to see which relative has time to help take care of your parents at home."

Mentioning Li Yi's parents, Lin Yue's expression became somewhat unnatural.

She knew that Li Yi's mother was very strange and had big problems, but she still didn't dare to point it out now, and didn't even dare to tell Li Yi through some roundabout ways, because she was worried about what terrifying things would happen to Li Yi after he was awakened.

Maintaining a certain balance now, at least there would be no danger.

"Send a text message to my aunt, Zhang Gui, and just say that I'm on a mission recently and don't have time to go home, and ask her to help look after my parents. There is nutrient solution at home, just replace it regularly. I can also monitor the operation of the medical cabin in real-time on my phone here, so there won't be any problems," Li Yi said.

"Okay."

Lin Yue immediately sent a text message to his aunt as Li Yi said.

Soon, there was a reply from there.

"No problem, your aunt agreed," Lin Yue said. "But the doctor here really cares about you. What's in your IV drip is mixed with Extraordinary Water. No wonder the doctor said you can recuperate for half a month. I think this is conservative; you can recover in ten days at most."

She had excellent eyesight and saw a little fluorescence flickering in Li Yi's IV bottle.

That was exactly the characteristic of Extraordinary Water.

This medicinal liquid could be taken orally or intravenously, and the effect of intravenous infusion was better, which could greatly stimulate the repair of human cells and accelerate the healing of injuries.
