Chapter 3282: The Prodigal Daughter
At this moment, Wu Shuhang, who had long been accustomed to life and death, suddenly felt a pang of sorrow like a rabbit's death bringing grief to a fox.
It was also at this moment that he suddenly realized Yuan Chengze was dead, and the reason he himself was still alive was certainly not because the Yingzhu had shown him mercy beyond the law.
From the Yingzhu's perspective, the fact that someone had fed him a Remolding Pill was a slap in her face, and she certainly wished this matter would never come to light.
Killing him and Yuan Chengze was actually the best solution.
The reason Yuan Chengze died while he still lived, upon investigation, should be that his older brother had just gone missing not long ago, and the Yingzhu dared not kill him for the time being, otherwise military morale would collapse, resulting in more loss than gain.
What Wu family ancestors, in the end, the lives of the Wu family members were not as important as her face.
At this moment, Wu Tianlin suddenly said over the video: "Shuhang, you must remember, in this life you must not tell anyone about this matter, not even your family; you must bury this deep in your heart and not utter a single word to the outside! Otherwise, the danger will not be limited to just your life—do you understand?"
Wu Tianlin's words made Wu Shuhang even more certain of his judgment.
This was not only to make him keep silent, but also to use his family as a threat; once he truly leaked this matter, he feared his entire clan would be executed.
Wu Shuhang felt indescribable resentment in his heart, but he dared not show any expression, and he repeatedly said: "Grandfather, rest assured, I will not utter a single word to the outside!"
Wu Tianlin hummed and said: "Your Right Army Governor's Office should have all withdrawn to Spain by now, right?"
"Yes," Wu Shuhang said: "They have all withdrawn already."
Wu Tianlin said: "I will later tell your younger brother Wu Shuhan to immediately take up his post, and then send someone to pick you up."
Wu Shuhang suddenly said in a flustered voice: "Grandfather, I want to leave this place immediately—I don't want to stay in this damned place for even a moment..."
Wu Tianlin said: "You have already been exposed, so you cannot move about freely; what if the other side keeps an eye on you and follows the trail to find the new garrison of the Right Army Governor's Office?"
Wu Shuhang suddenly recalled what Ye Chen had done to him earlier, and he cried out: "But... but if I stay here, what if that bastard Wang Ba finds me again and stuffs another Remolding Pill into me? Then I might have my hands cut off again... I'm really afraid, Grandfather... this... this is not the suffering a human should endure..."
Wu Tianlin instinctively said: "How could that be? Such a precious Remolding Pill—giving you one is already outrageous; where would he get another to give you?"
Wu Shuhang said in a flustered voice: "Grandfather, I'm afraid! That guy doesn't follow the rules at all—I saw his expression when he shoved the Remolding Pill into me, and he didn't seem to feel the slightest bit of pain! It was as if that thing was worth nothing."
"Not following the rules..." Wu Tianlin murmured, then thought for a moment and said: "How about this: you go to the hospital right now, go to the largest hospital in Casablanca, and once there, tell the doctor you had an accident and your hands were cut off by machinery, so the doctor will admit you for treatment."
"Admit to the hospital?" Wu Shuhang was stunned and asked doubtfully: "Grandfather, if I go to the hospital, won't my whereabouts be directly made public?"
Wu Tianlin said: "What difference does it make now between you and being public? People still say they found you just by looking for you. In their eyes, you've long since lost any disguise; as long as you don't return to the Right Army Governor's Office, it's the same wherever you are."
Wu Shuhang said: "You're right..."
Wu Tianlin then said: "Go to the hospital and stay there for now—just consider it recuperating your health. And rest assured, once you're in the hospital, your condition will be grasped and recorded by medical staff in your medical record, and then that person will absolutely not dare to feed you another Remolding Pill."
Wu Shuhang didn't react at first, then instinctively asked: "Grandfather, why are you so sure he won't come to the hospital to feed me a Remolding Pill?"
Wu Tianlin said: "If he really did that, then you would grow two hands in the Casablanca hospital, and immediately after, this matter would become the greatest medical miracle in human history, enough to shock the entire medical world worldwide. All foreign surgeons, even all doctors and scientists related to humanity, would probably flock to Casablanca to see how you achieved limb regeneration. Maybe the Americans would secretly take you to America for research, and by then the whole world would know of the existence of cultivators and elixirs. Even the world's nobles and even those warlords holding heavy armies would stop at nothing to seize this kind of elixir. Do you think he would risk such a huge danger just to mess with you?"
Wu Shuhang came to his senses and immediately said: "Grandfather's words make sense—so for me now, the best refuge is the hospital! Then I'll go right away!"
Wu Tianlin instructed: "Go ahead—you've indeed suffered these past few days, and your body must have suffered greatly. Just stay in the hospital recently to recover from your wounds. I'll notify your brother and have him think of a way to pick you up when the time is right. If the timing isn't ripe in the short term, you don't need to rush—just stay calm and wait in the hospital."
"Good!" Wu Shuhang nodded and said: "I understand, Grandfather!"
"Alright." Wu Tianlin said: "Hurry up and go."
After hanging up the phone, Wu Shuhang used his feet with difficulty to stuff his severed left hand into Yuan Chengze's clothes, then immediately found Dong Mingchao of Moor Trade.
When Dong Mingchao saw the scene, the whole person was shocked beyond words.
Wu Shuhang had no time to explain to him, merely ordering: "Don't ask anything—first have someone take Yuan Canjiang's corpse away and dispose of it. Remember, it must be handled cleanly, leaving no trace. Also, instruct the person handling it to preferably wrap the corpse in a biohazard-level body bag, cremate it, and then bury it. Yuan Canjiang died by taking poison under orders, and his poison is far more toxic than yours—touching the skin poses a life-threatening danger."
Dong Mingchao dared not ask further, and immediately said: "Yes, Grand Governor—I'll arrange this right away!"
Wu Shuhang then said: "You personally drive me to the largest hospital in Casablanca—I'll need inpatient treatment there for the next few days. When the time comes, I'll tell the hospital I suffered a work injury, and you, as my boss, will advance the medical fees. Remember to get me a single room."
Dong Mingchao nodded repeatedly: "Grand Governor, rest assured—I understand!"
Wu Shuhang gestured with his wrist still bound by a belt at the long sword on the ground, saying: "You are responsible for keeping this sword safe—make sure it's strictly guarded. If it's lost, you'll lose your head. Understood?"
Dong Mingchao startled, then hurriedly said: "Understood!"
That night, the largest hospital in Casablanca admitted a severely injured patient.
The patient had lost both hands in the accident, and according to him, both hands had been crushed into meat paste by machinery, making reattachment completely impossible.
Given the severity of his injuries, the doctor immediately treated his wound and gave him a blood transfusion and anti-inflammatory medication to prevent infection.
Although such an injury could never fully heal, he had lost too much blood and the wound was large, so the doctor naturally admitted him for inpatient treatment. Fortunately, his boss was very conscientious and spent money to get him the best possible private room.
Lying on the hospital bed, Wu Shuhang finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Although both hands were gone, he also knew that his misfortunes had thus come to an end.
At this moment, the archvillain Ye Chen, together with Li Ailin, had already left Casablanca by boat, heading for Spain across the strait.
However, Ye Chen and Li Ailin's purpose in going to Spain was not for the Right Army Governor's Office, but to use Spain as a transit point to change identities and fly back to Northern Europe.
While the ship was sailing at sea, Li Ailin received a warning from Ai via satellite.
He said to Ye Chen: "Mr. Ye, Ai, through facial recognition systems, discovered Wu Shuhang's traces from a vending machine in a hospital in Casablanca, and captured a clear image of his hands being completely lost."
After saying that, he handed the phone to Ye Chen—the screen showed exactly the image Ai had captured from the vending machine surveillance. In the picture, Wu Shuhang was being supported by a middle-aged man as he walked through the emergency hall, and it was clearly visible that both his hands were gone.
Seeing this, Ye Chen couldn't help but laugh: "Wu Feiyan, this prodigal daughter, truly repays grudges—Wu Shuhang's left hand grew back thanks to my Remolding Pill, theoretically worth at least hundreds of billions, yet she actually said she'd cut it off and did!"
