Chapter 485

Just stepping onto the third floor, Su Yang saw a group of wounded soldiers pinning a middle-aged officer to the ground.

A doctor, holding a knife, slashed off the officer's blackened arm in one cut.

The junior lieutenant whispered, "Major, this way—they're at the very back!"

"Mm!"

Su Yang, face grim, stepped around the wounded and arrived at the door of the room in the farthest corner of the third floor, then kicked it open.

Inside the ward, sixteen beds made the space feel extremely cramped.

But at least there were beds!

On the three largest beds at the back lay three members of the Fourteenth Emergency Team, severely injured and unconscious.

The other thirteen beds held conscious patients.

Down the narrow aisle stood a male doctor in a white coat and a middle-aged female beast-tamer, her face twisted in worry, accompanied by a Qingyu Sheep.

The Qingyu Sheep, a Silver-rank beast, looked weak, likely drained from heavy use.

As soon as Su Yang appeared, all thirteen members of the Fourteenth Emergency Team turned to look at him.

"Captain!"

"Captain!"

"..."

Su Yang nodded solemnly.

He pointed at the three unconscious, severely wounded men and asked, "Doctor, how are they?"

The male doctor replied respectfully, "Their conditions have stabilized. No immediate threat to life, but they still need time to rest."

"Good."

Su Yang scanned the injuries of the thirteen members—non-fatal, but far from light.

If their wounds had truly been minor and didn't hinder combat, they wouldn't have chosen to be hospitalized.

Now, all their wounds had been cleaned and dressed with herbal medicine.

"Rest well," Su Yang said helplessly. "Your performance this time still disappointed me—three brothers dead, three severely wounded, and you thirteen."

"Tell me, with so many Hellblood Vines in Wanyang City, how did you get hurt?"

Each wounded member of the Emergency Team lowered their head under Su Yang's reprimand.

They knew Su Yang was looking out for them!

Right now, every other member of the thirteen other Emergency Teams in the entire unit envied them, dreaming of joining.

Su Yang asked sternly, "On the battlefield, you must be extra careful—do you understand?"

"Understood!"

"Then rest well."

Su Yang didn't know what else to say.

Outside the hospital, Su Yang released the Storm Eagle to patrol.

The Storm Eagle would surely be more reliable than Wanyang City's assigned patrol beast-tamers, spotting attacks earlier and allowing more time to prepare.

According to the system mission, the spider beast's attacks might not stop.

With the Chromatic Illusionary Butterfly and the Void Wraith beside him, he had enough.

If an emergency arose, he could reach the scene in moments.

Back at the inn, after Hao Ren returned to his room, Su Yang followed behind Liu Mengyun.

Liu Mengyun inserted the key into the lock, opened her room door, then turned around in confusion to face Su Yang behind her.

"Major, do you need something?"

"Yes. Let's talk inside."

"Mm."

Liu Mengyun felt something was off.

But she still let Su Yang in.

She could only trust Yang's character.

If Su Yang truly intended to harm her, no resistance of hers would matter.

A single Chromatic Illusionary Butterfly would be enough to subdue her.

Su Yang entered Liu Mengyun's room and, under her puzzled gaze, headed straight for the large bed... then reached for the handle of the bottom drawer on the small standing cabinet to the left.

"No!"

Liu Mengyun felt ice-cold all over!

A dreadful premonition instantly engulfed her!

"I'm just curious—wanted to see what you took from the inn!"

Su Yang pulled gently—the scraping sound of the drawer opening felt like it grated against Liu Mengyun's heart!

Seeing the box inside the drawer, Su Yang turned to look at Liu Mengyun with a strange expression.

Items in a typical inn room have fixed positions.

Whatever Liu Mengyun took from the bottom drawer of the small cabinet on the left side of his room was almost certainly this very thing...

A flush spread across Liu Mengyun's face.

She felt dizzy, her palms slick with sweat!

Su Yang had suspected something, but seeing her reaction, he knew his guess was right.

The question was—why did this single woman take this?

Su Yang had asked the Ice Moon Sprite, who confirmed Liu Mengyun had no boyfriend.

For blowing up balloons?

Hehe!

Nobody in their right mind would believe that!

Su Yang raised the small box in his hand and asked疑惑ly, "You're in my room—what are you doing with this?"

Liu Mengyun took three steps as if they were two, lunged to Su Yang's side, snatched the box from his hand, and shouted loudly, "I'm your adjutant—I'm preparing this for you, isn't that enough?"

"For me?!!!"

Su Yang stared blankly at Liu Mengyun; her words left his mind spinning.

Liu Mengyun also realized her words might have another meaning…

She hastily shook her head and said, "No! No! I'm using it myself, just for myself—isn't that allowed?"

"Uh… of course you can, of course it's fine!"

"No! No!"

Liu Mengyun felt like she was about to collapse!
