The next day.

Chi Yu and Kver learned from the landlady the addresses of the two cultists who attacked them the night before but were killed on the spot.

Before leaving, the boss lady reminded her very thoughtfully: "Don't do it too obviously. Also, if you are unfortunately caught, don't try to drag me into the water. I will never admit that I have helped you."

What this says...do we look like the kind of people who repay kindness with hatred?

Besides, given the attack the night before yesterday, even if you deny it... the people in the Deep Blue Church may not believe it.

Chi Yu complained in his heart.

Based on the address provided by the proprietress, the two easily found the residence of one of the believers who lived alone.

This was the person who was responsible for attacking Kver that day. According to Kver, the opponent's right thigh was injured and he couldn't move freely after lying down at home for ten days and a half, let alone the ability to resist.

Naturally, it became their first choice.

The two climbed into the villa through the pried open window and found the cultist's bedroom on the second floor.

The cultist was sleeping when he sensed someone approaching while he was drowsy.

Slowly opening his eyes, two strange yet familiar faces suddenly came into view.

The cultists are so frightened that they subconsciously shout loudly.

As if he had expected it, Kevir stuffed the prepared towel into his mouth.

The two worked together to tie the person tightly, and then made a simple stretcher from local materials to carry the struggling cultist to the Huozhong Clinic.

The nurse who came over looked puzzled: "Excuse me..."

Kerver pretended to be anxious: "He is injured, very seriously!"

At the same time, Chi Yu kicked Muse beside him with his toes.

"Meow~"

An almost inaudible meow sounded.

Chi Yu only felt a warmth in his chest.

Is it...that opal necklace?

As soon as the idea came to her mind, she saw a serious-looking nurse walking toward her... no, I should say toward the patient on the stretcher.

Before he could get closer, the patient's body suddenly stiffened.

Veins popped up on his forehead, his eyes protruded outward, and a strange blue light even appeared in his pupils.

Not only the nurse and Kerver, but also Chi Yu, who knew the inside story, was a little surprised.

Is this...is the direction of this mutation a bit biased?

Chi Yu glanced at the cultist's arms that were tied to the stretcher and found that there were no "fish scales" covering them. Instead, the nails on the ten fingers were growing wildly, reaching a length of about five centimeters in just a few seconds.

"Ho...ho..."

A hoarse, rough breathing sound like an old bellows woke up the nurse who was stunned on the spot.

She took a step back and tried her best to control her trembling voice: "You, wait here for a moment, I will call Dr. Zoroyard right away!"

"Thank you!"

This time there was no trace of anxiety in Kver's tone.

The two waited there for less than two minutes when a group of doctors rushed over.

Seeing the patient's condition, they snatched the stretcher from Chi Yu and Kver before they even had time to ask.

Before being pushed aside, Chi Yu's eyes accurately captured a middle-aged man surrounded by more than a dozen doctors and nurses.

He looks to be about forty years old, tall and straight, neatly dressed, and has a pair of eyes as calm as glass. Except for showing a little surprise when he sees the symptoms of the patient, he doesn't seem to care about anyone. Anything can move you.

Intuition told Chi Yu that he was the clinic director who so far only existed in other people's mouths - Sainz Zoroyard.

Seemingly noticing the gaze cast from a distance, Zoroyard raised his eyes.

Before that, Chi Yu had withdrawn his gaze and stood quietly on the spot, as if he was frightened by the patient's sudden mutation.

Zoroyard didn't look much and directed the doctor to carry the patient into the operating room.

Chi Yu and Kver saw the opportunity and hid in the crowded corridor while they had no time to care about themselves.

The nurse who was left to ask about the patient's specific condition looked around and found no one.

A trace of confusion flashed across her face.

……

Chi and Yu, who finally managed to sneak into the clinic, quickly found the previous room without any delay.

The door was locked...but that didn't bother Kervill as a detective.

He took out a silenced pistol from his pocket, pointed it at the door lock and pulled the trigger.

Chi Yu, who was behind him, raised his eyebrows and couldn't help but look around.

Fortunately, no one noticed them.

As for the damage to the door lock, sooner or later the doctors and nurses passing by will find out the clues... There is no other way but to hope that clues can be found as soon as possible.

Chi Yu closed the door tightly, then moved a chair from the side and placed it against the door.

At this time, Kver, who was walking in front, had already looked carefully inside and outside the room.

"There is no one in the hospital bed, and it doesn't look much different from other wards at first glance. How about we..."

Before he finished speaking, a black shadow instantly bounced out.

Under the watchful eyes of Chi and Yu, Muse jumped onto the cabinet in the corner of the ward, scratching at the wooden board with her sharp claws.

Chi Yu and Kevir looked at each other.

The two worked together to move the cabinet away, and sure enough, they discovered a hidden secret passage behind it.

Kerviel perked up and said, "Go down and have a look!"

"it is good."

Chi Yu naturally couldn't refuse.

The two of them bent down and got in, climbing down the stairs as quickly as possible.

Below is an extremely vast space.

In the middle is a walkway where four or five people can walk side by side, and on both sides are small rooms separated by walls and iron fences.

"This is...a cell?"

Kevir frowned.

Through the dim light above his head, he could vaguely see the scene inside the prison.

Flat floors, dirty walls, cold iron beds, and... dark red bloodstains appeared all over the room.

The moment he saw all this clearly, a fishy smell seemed to rush into his nose, and a feeling of discomfort arose spontaneously.

"Meow, meow~"

As if sensing something, the muse rushed out from the feet of the two of them.

"Follow."

Chi Yu immediately whispered.

"Oh, okay." Kver followed closely, and it took him two seconds to react, "This cat..."

Chi Yu didn't explain much: "Muse was brought back by my mother from Orvis."

"……I see."

Not knowing what to think of, Kevir looked at Muse in a strange way.

The two people and the cat walked forward and reached the end of the corridor.

There was a separate cell there, with dim lights around it, making it difficult to see clearly what was going on inside.

Kerver repeated his old trick of violently opening the lock.

Then, he took out a small flashlight from the inner pocket of his windbreaker and clicked the switch.

Seeing his series of smooth movements, Chi Yu, who was sitting back, couldn't help but complain.

As expected of a detective... the equipment is complete.
