"Miss, are you alright?"
An elder in a Zhongshan suit walked up to the beautiful woman, his face pale with anxiety as he asked.
"Uncle Zhou, I'm fine for now," the beautiful woman replied with a smile.
"Miss, you have asthma, and the master repeatedly warned you not to go out alone. If something were to happen to you, we would all be finished," Uncle Zhou said, still shaken.
The beautiful woman smiled and said, "Uncle Zhou, I'm fine, aren't I? I'll be careful next time. Oh, and it's thanks to him that I'm safe... Please order everyone to search the entire hospital immediately. We must find him."
The "him" the beautiful woman referred to was naturally Chu Lingtian.
Soon, Chu Lingtian, who was peeling an apple for Liu Bingxue in the ward, was found by the beautiful woman.
To avoid disturbing Liu Bingxue's rest, Chu Lingtian stepped out of the ward.
"Young man, we are truly grateful. Thank you for saving our young lady's life," Uncle Zhou said, clasping Chu Lingtian's hand with a look of deep gratitude.
Chu Lingtian replied calmly, "It was nothing, just a small effort. There's no need for thanks."
"My name is Lin Ruoxue. What is your name?" the beautiful woman asked with a sweet smile.
"Chu Lingtian," Chu Lingtian replied.
"Brother Chu, you saved our young lady's life today, so our Lin family in the capital city owes you a favor. If you ever need anything, feel free to come to us. The entire Lin family will help you." Uncle Zhou said earnestly.
"No need." Chu Lingtian shook his head and added, "If you have nothing else, I'll go back to take care of my wife now. Goodbye."
Seeing Chu Lingtian turn and walk back into the ward, Lin Ruoxue and Uncle Zhou exchanged glances.
"Miss, it seems this young man doesn't know how powerful our Lin family in the capital is," Uncle Zhou said with a smile.
Lin Ruoxue replied, "Find a way to get his contact information, and give him mine. Send people to keep a close eye on his movements. He is my savior, and this debt must be repaid."
"Yes!" Uncle Zhou commanded with a deep voice.
That evening, Liu Bingxue slept in the hospital bed, and Chu Lingtian slept on the sofa beside her. Both had fallen asleep.
Meanwhile, the police in Dachang City were in a complete panic. Within an hour, more than a dozen people had died in the city, and each of them bore the marks of being gnawed by human teeth.
Cannibalism!
This was something that would absolutely chill anyone to the bone and fill them with terror.
The gnawed tooth marks were clearly and obviously visible on the bodies of the deceased. Even seasoned police officers accustomed to scenes of brutal death were so nauseated by the sight that they vomited uncontrollably.
The authorities speculated that a heinous cannibalistic demon had arrived in Dachang City. Therefore, the police and military swiftly mobilized all their forces, blockading the entire city and initiating a thorough search, determined to find the cannibalistic murderer at all costs and as soon as possible.
At this moment, the Cannibal King, dispatched by the Jiang family, had killed many innocent people along the way. After devouring their corpses, he stood at the entrance of the hospital where Liu Bingxue was staying.
It was three o'clock in the morning. The hospital lobby was deserted, with only the lights on.
The Cannibal King walked in. He had already learned of the ward where Liu Bingxue and Chu Lingtian were located and headed straight there.
