Xia Xin's father sat on the chair in front of the surgery room, his dark face showing no expression, but Luo Chao could tell from his clenched fists and the bulging veins on his forehead that he was actually very nervous inside.
Xia Xin leaned on Chen Ziqi's shoulder, her eyes red and on the verge of tears.
The person undergoing surgery inside was her biological mother; how could she not be worried?
Chen Ziqi continuously comforted her, using tissues to wipe away the tears at the corner of her eyes. "Xinxin, don't worry. The hospital has arranged for the best doctors to perform the surgery on your aunt. It will definitely be okay. After this chemotherapy, your aunt will recover."
"Hmm." Xia Xin nodded repeatedly while crying. She also believed her mother could overco her illness, but for so reason, she just wanted to cry.
The pungent sll of disinfectant in the hospital made Luo Chao feel uncomfortable, so he hid in the restroom to call Yang Wei and the others, informing them of his situation and that he wouldn't be able to return for a while.
After finishing the call, he opened the restroom door to head out, when a short person in a hoodie passed by in front of him. At first, Luo Chao didn't mind it, but after taking two steps, he suddenly turned his head to stare at that figure.
From that figure, he sensed the sa aura as Inoue Matsushita, the Upper Ninja from East Japan who had attacked them before, like a poisonous snake from a dark corner, ready to launch a deadly strike at any mont.
The figure seed to notice Luo Chao's gaze as well. It quickly sprang forward like an agile leopard and disappeared around the corridor corner in the blink of an eye.
Without thinking much, Luo Chao quickly gave chase. No matter who he was, moving so stealthily must an he had so untold secrets that needed to be unveiled—better to grab him first and find out later.
By the ti Luo Chao reached the corner, all he saw were hospital staff in white coats and patients' family mbers, with no sign of that strange person at all.
"Hmph." From this situation, Luo Chao concluded without a doubt that it was a Japanese Ninja, using a thod identical to Inoue Matsushita's.
In the past, Luo Chao would have had no way to deal with him and could only let him escape. Last ti, catching Inoue Matsushita was due to geographical advantages. But now Luo Chao was no longer his old self. He let out a cold laugh and turned to an empty corner.
He took out a Spirit Talisman from his coat, tossed it into the air, and muttered a few incantations. The talisman floated and swayed in the air a couple of tis before transforming into a wisp of blue smoke and shooting off in a specific direction.
This Tracking Talisman was among the nurous Talismans made from the Spirit Beast Hide gifted by the Dragon Team, specially used to track others. Any aura locked by Luo Chao within a hundred-mile radius could not escape its pursuit. Of course, there are exceptions, like those significantly stronger than Luo Chao or exceptionally skilled in hiding, who could evade it.
Luo Chao was certain that this Japanese Ninja was neither of those exceptions; he didn't even feel as strong as the Upper Ninja Inoue Matsushita. He was likely at the Chūnin level, comparable to an ordinary mber of the Dragon Team.
Following the Tracking Talisman, Luo Chao quickly arrived at the hospital's basent. This amazed him: why would a Japanese ghost, knowing his identity was exposed, not flee but hide in the basent? Could it be he also knew the Chinese saying, "the most dangerous place is the safest"?
The hospital basent was usually where corpses were stored, what we commonly call a morgue. It was divided into several small rooms, and the Tracking Talisman disappeared outside one of those rooms' doors. This made Luo Chao understand that the Japanese Ninja was inside this room.
Standing close to the door, Luo Chao utilized his Spiritual Sense to probe inside.
"Is this batch of goods ready? I think soone has discovered us; we need to act quickly!" a hoarse and bizarre voice said.
"There's still so left! Recently, there aren't as many people coming to the hospital for surgery as before. Also, I can't do it too blatantly, purposely killing every patient to harvest their organs, so..." This ti, the person speaking had a normal voice, which sounded like a young man.
"Baka... What does the life and death of these foolish Chinese have to do with our East Japan Empire! They're just beasts for our great Japanese people to harvest organs from!" The hoarse and bizarre voice sounded again, angrily saying.
"You..." The young man was also from Huaxia and was also being insulted as a beast but dared not speak out. After accepting a huge sum of money from them, dedicating his life to them, he already knew he could never escape their control, and resistance would only lead to death.
Swallowing his anger, he said, "Mr. Sasaki, give so more ti, I will definitely gather all the goods."
"Hmm, if another patient under your care cos along, you just need to remove all his organs, nothing else matters!"
"Yes..."
Hearing this, Luo Chao's blood boiled, anger flooding his mind to the point where it felt like his teeth would crack. With blood-red eyes, he kicked open the thickened steel security door of the morgue. Staring at the two people in the room, he exclaid, "I'm going to tear you apart!"
Without any superfluous actions, he directly charged at the young man in a white coat. Compared to the Japanese ghoul, he wanted to kill this traitor first, who, for personal gain, wantonly took lives, deliberately killing patients who could have recovered and removed their organs to deliver to Japan. Such a person deserves to die a thousand tis.
The two people in the room were scared half to death; this man just kicked open the security door, which was terrifying.
Seeing Luo Chao approaching him, the young man was terrified, his legs shivering. "Mr. Sasaki... save ..."
"Stupid pig..." Sasaki coldly laughed. He didn't care about the young man's life or death; he was rely a tool in their hands, a damn Chinese pig, easily replaceable at any ti.
What he was thinking about now was how to counter Luo Chao's attack in a mont or how to kill Luo Chao or escape. He tore off the hoodie, revealing the tight ninja suit underneath and a Ninja Blade.
This made him look exactly like Inoue Matsushita, except for the slight difference in the style of the Ninja Blade on his back.
With just two strides, Luo Chao reached the young man, raising his fist. "Die, you traitor of Huaxia."
"No... don't kill ..." Out of fear of death, the young man lay on the ground pleading without a shred of dignity. Shaking his head continuously, tears and snot everywhere. "I can be useful... please don't kill ..."
He had personally witnessed Luo Chao's power; one punch would surely turn him into pulp.
