Chapter 754

~6 min read 1,197 words

As soon as it opened, the musty air of old years rushed to his face.

Inside were all sorts of old items, the most prominent being a group photo.

It was a photo of Lin Yi and a girl, and Lin Yi at that time was still very young.

He looked at it for a while, formed some guesses in his heart, put the photo back, and carried the medical box downstairs.

Ning Chen placed the medical box on the ground, carefully wiped Lin Yi's wounds, and helped him apply medicine.

Ning Chen rarely did such things, so he had only wiped halfway when Lin Yi was woken by the pain.

"Hiss!"

Lin Yi suddenly opened his eyes; seeing it was Ning Chen applying medicine, he was somewhat shocked and also wanted to laugh.

No wonder he said it hurt so much; it turned out this kid was applying medicine to him.

That force, who knows light or heavy.

Thinking this, Lin Yi said helplessly.

"Kid, thank you for coming out to save me today."

Hearing these words, Ning Chen did not answer.

He was only doing it for his mission.

"Kid, you haven't applied medicine to anyone else before, have you?"

Lin Yi struggled to look at Ning Chen's technique for applying medicine and directly complained.

"Your force has me waking up in pain directly."

Ning Chen simply put down the action in his hands and looked at Lin Yi with a reluctant face.

And when Lin Yi met Ning Chen's gaze, he hurriedly explained.

"Actually, I didn't mean that."

Before Lin Yi could finish explaining, Ning Chen stood up, turned, and left.

Watching Ning Chen's seamless movements, Lin Yi smiled helplessly.

He actually didn't mean it intentionally; he just wanted to say something, to remind Ning Chen.

Looking at the things Ning Chen used to apply medicine, he suddenly felt.

Having someone apply medicine feels quite nice; at least one can slack off.

Thinking this, Lin Yi still picked up the items and continued to apply medicine to himself.

Lin Yi had done this thing no fewer than many times; his technique was skilled, and he finished applying medicine very quickly.

Looking at the result of his medicine application, he nodded very satisfied.

Very satisfied with his own technique for applying medicine.

After finishing applying medicine, he packed the medicine box and went upstairs.

Just entering the room, he saw Ning Chen looking out the window, not knowing what he was thinking.

Lin Yi thought Ning Chen was angry about what he just said, so he awkwardly spoke.

"Um, I didn't mean it just now; I just wanted to remind you."

After speaking, he thought Ning Chen would say something, but in the end, Ning Chen said not a word, just looking out the window.

He actually didn't take Lin Yi's words to heart; after all, this was something he admitted; he indeed lacked this medicine-applying technique.

Just now, as soon as he returned to the room and stood by this window, he could actually see Ye Lisi's headquarters.

And at this moment, Ning Chen was staring blankly at Ye Lisi's headquarters.

Seeing Ning Chen not answer his words for so long, Lin Yi suddenly remembered something and said with a smile.

"Outside and over there is Ye Lisi's headquarters; I forgot to tell you this."

This sentence, Ning Chen actually heard.

He turned around, looked at Lin Yi, and said, "Show me the materials from last time again."

Materials from last time?

Lin Yi was stunned, then remembered the report on Ye Lisi's headquarters from before.

He nodded, took it out from the drawer, and handed it to Ning Chen.

Ning Chen took it, looked at the materials in his hand, and slowly flipped through them.

And Lin Yi, watching his appearance, asked very confused.

"Kid, aren't you curious why people from my organization are hunting me?"

Hearing Lin Yi's words, Ning Chen, while looking at the materials in his hand, shook his head.

He already half-guessed and half-understood this matter, so there was no need to actively ask about it.

Seeing Ning Chen not actively ask, Lin Yi smiled.

"Actually, kid, I originally received the organization's order to kill you, not to invite you into the organization."

666. Still got involved (12)

After Lin Yi finished speaking, he looked at Ning Chen's expression.

But he discovered Ning Chen's expression had no change at all; instead, there was a feeling that made him feel everything was within Ning Chen's expectations.

"Kid, do you know everything already?"

Lin Yi guessed and asked.

And Ning Chen shook his head, "I am not a god."

He was certainly not a god who could foresee; these were also guesses he made later.

Today was only when he verified this fact.

Listening to Ning Chen's words, Lin Yi smiled helplessly and still nodded.

"That's true too—you couldn't have foreseen this happening."

Listening to Lin Yi's words, Ning Chen flipped through the documents in his hand.

Ever since today, after seeing every floor of the Ye Lisi headquarters that hadn't been seen before, Lin Yi had already supplemented the files.

685 is in danger.

After Ning Chen finished reading the documents in his hand, the next second, the remaining time of the hidden mission appeared before him.

Only the last twenty-four hours remained.

In the coming twenty-four hours, he needed to protect Lin Yi well.

As long as he didn't let Lin Yi lose his life, this hidden mission would be considered complete.

He closed the documents in his hand, set them aside, and turned to look at Lin Yi.

"Does your organization have any powerful people?"

Ning Chen suddenly asked.

Lin Yi was stunned for a moment upon hearing his words.

What is this kid asking for?

After hesitating for a moment, Lin Yi still answered: "Yes."

After speaking, meeting Ning Chen's gaze, Lin Yi hurriedly explained.

"But not the one we met today; that was just one of them."

Their organization had no shortage of powerful people, but the especially powerful ones—Lin Yi only remembered one person.

"The person I'm talking about, whether in speed or strength, is absolutely top-tier, but he's not in Satho. The only thing that can bring him back is something extremely important—only then will he return."

Saying this, Lin Yi raised his eyes to look at Ning Chen.

But Ning Chen said unhurriedly, "What if the important thing is me?"

He guessed that within the remaining twenty-four hours, Lin Yi might be attacked by this person.

He needed to prepare in advance—ready to protect Lin Yi at any moment.

Upon learning the person wasn't in Satho, Ning Chen instead felt a little uneasy.

Not knowing when the person would return was, on the contrary, somewhat fatal.

This way, there was no way to know when the person would appear.

Ning Chen sighed helplessly, stood up, and looked toward the window again.

Seeing Ning Chen's appearance, Lin Yi comforted him.

"Although that guy is very strong, kid, I think you're even stronger than him. Don't be sad."

Hearing Lin Yi's words, Ning Chen was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at him.
