Leaving the ward, the three stood by the door.

Idahang looked down at the ground, silent;

Matsuda Jinpei frowned and stared at the door of the ward, as if he wanted to see what was going on inside through the door;

Hagiwara Kenji looked at the two of them with a worried look on his face, and finally couldn't help but ask, "Squad leader, what did the doctor say?"

Yi Dahang sighed and replied in a low voice: "The doctor said that as long as you rest well, there will be no big problem."

He paused, then added: "But more... there's nothing we can do."

Hearing these words, the remaining two people couldn't help but hold their breath. They certainly understood what Ida Hang meant - although there was no danger to his life at the moment, it might not be easy to fully recover.

Hagiwara Kenji bit his lip and muttered to himself: "How could this happen..."

Matsuda Jinpei clenched his fists tightly, his eyes revealing a hint of unwillingness and anger.

However, faced with such a reality, they were helpless and could only stand there silently with heavy hearts.

"If you retire as an inspector, the pension won't be much." Knowing that the matter was almost a foregone conclusion, Hagiwara Kenji was the first to think about the subsequent compensation. "I wonder if the higher-ups can give Haya a promotion, so that her life will be easier. The serial killer was caught, and Haya was the first to do so, and she was also seriously injured."

"Those people have a bad impression of Haya. Besides, the prisoner was already dead when he was found. Haya's gun was missing three bullets. Haya shot the prisoner to death. Although it was for self-protection, if someone deliberately changed the focus, Haya would be criticized again." Matsuda Jinpei sneered, "How did Haya offend them?"

"These are things that haven't happened yet, so don't think too much about it, Matsuda." Ida Kou warned, "Be careful if it gets out. It won't be good for Haya or you."

Walls have ears, and this is the police hospital.

"Got it." Matsuda Jinpei swallowed the "I'm not afraid of them" that was about to come out of his mouth, leaned against the wall, and let out a long breath.

"What Nagano said, it's better for them to bring up the matter of Haya's promotion." Hagiwara Kenji sighed, "But now I'm afraid no matter what I do, I'll step on a landmine."

Almost on the same day that Lin Xiaochen was in trouble, the Metropolitan Police Department, the Police School, and many shrines were attacked by bombs. A large number of criminals who appeared out of nowhere broke into the Metropolitan Police Department and the Police School with explosives on their backs, and then detonated the bombs. As for the shrine, it was found that the bomb that had been buried under the shrine had been detonated by someone.

The nationwide bombings caused a large number of casualties and seriously challenged the credibility of the police.

The pressure was directly placed on the Superintendent of Police. Now the police force is full of anger and has no place to vent. On the one hand, they have to endure the criticism from the people and appease them, and on the other hand, they have to cope with the pressure from their superiors in the government to solve the case.

Lin Xiaochen's affairs were not so conspicuous anymore.

"Don't even think about getting promoted now. It would be good if you can retire peacefully." Idahang said solemnly, "Wait until Haya recovers and then tell him slowly. Are both of you fully recovered?"

Kenji Hagiwara and Jinpei Matsuda, as captains of the Explosive Disposal Team, were transferred to the front line after the bomb case began. Although they were unable to stop it, they were also scratched by debris while trying to save people.

"It's all right now." Hagiwara Kenji rolled up his sleeves to show Date Kou his healed skin, "It's just a minor skin injury."

The incident happened suddenly, and neither of them had time to put on explosion-proof clothing. Matsuda Jinpei was more unlucky than Hagiwara Kenji. The glass fragments pierced his legs. He was just able to walk normally now: "It's okay, squad leader, I was fine all the way here."

"Bang."

There was a sound of glass falling to the ground in the room. Matsuda Jinpei, who was closest to the door, immediately opened it. The three of them walked in, only to see Lin Xiaochen half sitting up, one hand supporting the bed and the other hand hanging above the bedside table. There was tea mixed with glass fragments on the ground.

Apparently, the guy tried to get some water for himself but unfortunately broke the cup.

Matsuda Jinpei rolled up his sleeves and said, "What are you doing? Lie down right now."

Lin Xiaochen did as he was told and covered his face with the quilt.

Matsuda Jinpei took the water cup from Hagiwara Kenji and pulled off the quilt. Lin Xiaochen smiled flatteringly and blinked his eyes: "Matsuda, what are you doing? You woke me up."

"Water, don't you want some water?" Matsuda Jinpei held up the water, his eyes showing 'stop pretending', "Can I get you a straw?"

"I'd better sit up." Lin Xiaochen supported himself on the bed, and Hagiwara Kenji helped support his back so that he could sit more comfortably.

Matsuda Jinpei still took the straw and put it into the cup: "Drink it, I'll hold the cup."

Lin Xiaochen took a few sips and said, "Thank you, and I'm sorry to have caused you trouble."

"Haya, this is too formal." Matsuda Jinpei put the cup aside without saying anything. Hagiwara Kenji took the pillow and put it behind Lin Xiaochen, then pulled a chair over and sat down. "Didn't I tell you to call us if you have any problems?"

"How can I disturb you guys when you're busy? Besides, I don't want to appear useless." Lin Xiaochen folded his hands on his belly, "I'm really bored. Tell me about what's going on outside."

Idahang had already cleaned up the ground: "Your first priority now is to rest."

"At least let me know the follow-up of the case I'm responsible for..."

Idahang remained unmoved.

Lin Xiaochen turned his gaze to Hagiwara Kenji and looked at him pitifully.

Hagiwara Kenji turned his head away.

Lin Xiaochen refused to give in. He looked at Matsuda Jinpei who was standing aside with his arms folded across his chest: "Matsuda..."

The corner of Matsuda Jinpei's mouth twitched. From his perspective, the rare honest man who was always gentle to others and different from the black-hearted Master Jing was barely on par with the blond teacher in terms of fighting power. Of course, he was a peer who was slightly weaker than him. At this moment, he was leaning weakly on the pillow, and his face, which had not yet regained its color, was full of grievance.

It looks pitiful and a little stubborn, with wet eyes. From this top-down angle, it looks like a dog abandoned by its owner.

Jinpei Matsuda took out a pair of sunglasses from his pocket and put them on to block his vision.
