However, it was normal for such a change to happen to Su Yun.
Before this incident, Su Yun was just an ordinary person. He wanted to earn some money by relying on live streams to earn some fame. Then, he would study the unique skills he liked. That was all.
But now, he had completely walked on a completely different path. This path led to an unknown end. It was also this unknown that made Su Yun feel uneasy. He needed time, more time. Only then could he clear the clouds.
“I have to find the national treasure as soon as possible and hand it over to the country! I can’t delay any longer.” Su Yun felt even more pressured. He knew that the problem was not only targeted by unknown forces overseas, but also the pressure brought about by the golden foil. He stood quietly in the bathroom for a long time before his restless heart was gradually suppressed.
After coming out of the bathroom, Su Yun sat on a chair. On the table in front of him was the phone he had taken from Black Wolf. In order to prevent the phone from carrying a location, Su Yun had long turned off that phone. He did not intend to throw away this phone. He still had to use it to dig out more clues.
In fact, if necessary, he wanted to use this phone to lure the snake out of its hole and take the initiative to kill his way to his door to get rid of future troubles. But now, he had to adjust his mentality and let his condition reach its peak before he had the confidence to fight.
Similarly, Xu Jiajia, who was lying in the ward of Hibiscus City Hospital, was having a mental struggle. The dawn was breaking. The sunlight of dawn had long dispelled the darkness, making one’s mood bright.
Xu Jiajia had already woken up and was being examined by the doctor. This was also one of the few times she could buy herself time.
Xu Kui was on his way over. At that time, there would not be many opportunities for Xu Jiajia to think. Once the hospital showed proof that Xu
Jiaiia’s condition was stable, she would have to accept many police inquiries.
The reason why there was a psychological struggle was because Xu Jiajia was worried that Su Yun would be implicated because of her.
Although she did not know what had happened to Su Yun, she knew that Su Yun would probably make a big move next and needed her to buy him enough time.
Xu Jiajia replayed the scene in her mind, searching for any fatal flaws. She had to turn her words into a piece of iron. The police could be suspicious, but they could not find any loopholes in her words. Otherwise, Su Yun would be in danger.
Hence, Xu Jiajia lay on the bed and stared at the ceiling with her big eyes. There were doctors walking around, but Xu Jiajia was not affected at all. In the doctor’s opinion, perhaps it was because she was too frightened and needed time to adjust. If necessary, a psychiatrist would intervene.
However, these doctors clearly did not know that Xu Jiajia was not frightened at all. Instead, she was logical and abnormally calm. It did not match her delicate appearance at all.
Time passed minute by minute. The police were also arranging for a forensic doctor to quickly examine the corpses of Black Wolf, Pig Head Rong, and the others in detail. The technical department reviewed the various traces collected at the scene.
The police wanted to find the answer. They wanted to know what had happened at Maple Ridge.
Just as Xu Jiajia had guessed, under the strict and meticulous work arrangements of the police, there were already police officers who rushed to the hospital immediately and waited for the results of Xu Jiajia’s examination.
As soon as the results showed that they were normal, they would immediately ask.
In the corridor outside the ward, a few police officers were standing in front of a doctor and flipping through relevant information about Xu Jiajia. The leader happened to be Captain Chen Ye, the female police officer, Detective Zhang, and Xiao Li.
“Doctor, are you sure she’s okay?”
The doctor shook his head. “It’s nothing. She just might have been frightened. You can ask her, but don’t take too long, and don’t overstimulate her. She needs to rest.”
Captain Chen nodded. Then, Detective Zhang, who was behind him, pushed open the door of the ward and brought Xiao Li in. Xu Jiajia did not look at the door. She was still looking at the ceiling above her head, looking unmoved, as if she had yet to recover from the shock.
However, as the two police officers sat down, the first thing they asked stunned Xu Jiajia.. “Xu Jiajia, where did Su Yun go?”
