Chapter 511: Ants with Wings Can Also Fly

Trust is an extremely luxurious thing, often requiring life-and-death trials to verify.

Coincidentally, what Feng Mu and Qian Huan lacked least was life-and-death trials—forty-four times, a number enough to move even the God of Death to tears.

Feng Mu's expression turned solemn, and he said in a deep voice:

"Rest assured, Warden Qian has shown me kindness in recognizing my talent and regards me as his right-hand man; how could I not repay him with my life?"

Li Hanyu stared straight at Feng Mu, as if trying to see into his eyes.

However, what she saw was a pair of clear, limpid eyes, and the sincerity in them made people involuntarily want to grant their trust.

Li Hanyu remained silent for a long while, then lowered her voice to an extreme degree and said with a grave tone:

"If Wang Yiyuan Xinfā extends an olive branch to you next, what would you do?"

A flicker of astonishment crossed Feng Mu's face at the right moment, and he thought without hesitation:

"If Wang Yiyuan can offer a suitable price, of course I would accept."

It was just unclear how Wang Yiyuan would quote his price.

Theoretically speaking, the price Wang Yiyuan could offer would definitely be ten times better than Li Hanyu's, if not more.

But being able to give doesn't mean he will give.

Feng Mu had a premonition in his heart:

"Wang Yiyuan Xinfā holds high position and great power, with too many pawns in his hand. I'm afraid I've only just entered his sight now, merely an insignificant role, and most likely won't be considered by him."

"But Li Hanyu is different. To protect her son's painstaking efforts, in a situation where no one else could be used, she might possibly stake all her chips on me."

Choose a politician skilled at playing cards, or a gambler going all-in?

Feng Mu took a deep breath, imitating the manner of Guan Zhong and others willing to die for him, clenched his right fist and pounded his own chest, and said fiercely:

"Madam, please rest assured. I am like an ant on the ground, never knowing any high-and-mighty big shot like Wang Yiyuan."

"I've achieved some success in the Second Prison entirely thanks to Warden Qian's appreciation and promotion."

While speaking, Feng Mu turned his head and looked at the operating room with eyes full of deep affection.

The glass shards on Qian Huan's body had already been pulled out cleanly, the wounds stitched up seven or eight out of ten, and moreover, tubes and medicines were inserted all over.

Qian Huan 【35/417】

Feng Mu slowly turned off the 【Blood Bar Ghost Eye】, and this time the alarm in the operating room finally did not sound.

Heaven pitied, Qian Huan's last thread of blood barely stabilized.

Li Hanyu took in Feng Mu's deeply affectionate gaze, her mind filled with countless thoughts:

"My son Yu has a way with people; this Feng Mu is indeed a person who repays kindness."

"Unlike that Wang Cong, who came to the hospital, glanced hastily twice, and then left in a hurry on the pretext of having business……"

Feng Mu withdrew his gaze, looked at Li Hanyu again, and swore an oath with utmost solemnity:

"Warden Qian's life or death is now uncertain. I, Feng Mu, swear that I will do my utmost to defend the Second Prison for him, guarding the 'Eight-Cornered Cage Beast Fighting Plan' as if guarding my own painstaking efforts."

"If I violate this oath, may my most beloved father and sister meet a bad end, and fall into the Abyss for eternity, with no place to bury my corpse."

This poisonous oath came too fiercely; even Li Hanyu, accustomed to wind and waves, had her pupils shrink slightly.

The smile on Li Hanyu's face became a few points more genuine. She raised her hand to brush off the dust that didn't exist on Feng Mu's shoulders and instructed:

"Good, good, good. My son Qian Huan didn't misplace his trust in you. You return to the Second Prison first. If there's any situation, report to me at any time……"

Finally, Li Hanyu said meaningfully:

"Do not underestimate yourself. Know that even an ant, once fitted with wings, can fly up into the sky!"

Feng Mu nodded heavily, then looked at the operating room with lingering reluctance, before leaving quickly.

Li Bashan followed silently, standing like an iron tower at the entrance of the VVIP Passage.

Feng Mu didn't say much to Li Bashan. That was the good thing about the Senior Brother: he always did his best for his junior brothers and sisters and never meddled or asked too many questions.

This was something Feng Mu particularly liked. The only thing that needed pointing out was:

"Senior Brother, rest assured. I've already notified the Martial Arts Hall side. Junior Sister will come to the hospital to bring you food later."

Li Bashan's face instantly bloomed into a simple and satisfied smile.

Junior Brother understands me!

Passing through the corridor, Feng Mu stopped in front of another VVIP Ward.

Through the ajar door crack, he glimpsed Shi Wuming lying weakly and powerlessly on the bed.

The person had already woken up.

As expected of a Modified Human reconstructed at great cost, his vitality was very tenacious. The doctor merely replaced his leaking battery pack slightly, and his life was saved.

As for other injuries, only simple treatment was done. None of those scrapped and damaged Implant Bodies were replaced.

At this moment, the bones destroyed by the explosion and the severed nerve connection lines were all piled up by the bedside like an exhibition.

Replacing these Implant Bodies cost money. Shi Wuming was lying there himself, but no one paid for him.

Li Hanyu was angry at him for failing to protect properly and certainly wouldn't waste this money.

If not for hoping to dig out some clues about the murderer from his mouth, Shi Wuming would have already been sent to the Garbage Recycling Plant.

Yes, whether Natural Person or E Corpse, after death they are sent to the Incineration Plant to be burned.

When a Modified Human dies, they belong to the category of waste home appliances and should be sent to the Garbage Factory.

Shi Wuming was also quite happy with this. He didn't believe these quack doctors in the hospital. Compared to doctors, he trusted the repair technicians in the maintenance factory under Guangming Group more.

After saving his life, he had already contacted a familiar repair technician.

That repair technician was straightforward and had already swiftly placed an order for replacement parts for him. As soon as the parts arrive tomorrow morning, they will come along to perform "maintenance" on him.

After tomorrow passes, he will be vigorous and healthy again, as good as new.

"Indeed, flesh and blood are just redundant." Shi Wuming thought in his heart.

Of course, the price was not small. He signed a huge debt online with the Group, and this debt had a beautiful name—"Bright Loan"!

Shi Wuming's perception was fairly sharp; sensing someone peeping outside the door, he immediately turned his head to look out.

Their lines of sight met in the air, and both Feng Mu and Shi Wuming squeezed out false smiles, while killing intent spread in their hearts.

Shi Wuming was now heavily in debt, and wanted even more to take Feng Mu's life in exchange for money.

He thought to himself: "Tonight, I'll take you in exchange for money."

Feng Mu seemed able to guess Shi Wuming's thoughts, and coldly laughed in his heart:

"Not every tomorrow will arrive as promised."

Li Hanyu watched Feng Mu leave, then turned to look at the scene inside the operating room for a while.

After a moment, a pensive look appeared in her eyes; she quickly took out her phone from her pocket, and her slender fingers lightly slid across the screen, searching the contact list.

Immediately after, she dialed several numbers in turn.

As soon as the first number connected, Li Hanyu asked directly:

"Tell me everything you know about Feng Mu, down to the smallest detail.

I must find out whether there is any conflict between him and my son Qian Huan; even if it's just a trivial little friction, you must absolutely not hide it from me."
