Chapter 706 - New Helper

Following this major incident, the nurses quickly arrived and hurriedly took the unconscious Wang Wei away. Several managers immediately came forward to apologize.

The fact that a patient attempted to murder someone and nearly succeeded was a serious matter. If this were to get out, it would severely damage the reputation of the psychiatric hospital.

The staff became increasingly nervous upon learning Li Huowang’s identity.

Although he had almost been killed, Li Huowang did not demand compensation. He only had one request—to meet with Wang Wei. This guy was crucial.

The individuals trying to harm Li Huowang had been lying low for a long time, and now they had finally sent someone to strike again. Since they had encountered him, it wouldn’t make sense not to extract any useful information from Wang Wei.

The people at the Sixth People’s Hospital naturally agreed to this small request. It was a trivial matter compared with the potential negative impact of this incident becoming public.

Shortly after, Li Huowang met Wang Wei again. This time, Wang Wei was in a straitjacket with a muzzle to prevent him from biting.

“It’s fine, you can leave. I want to talk to him alone,” Li Huowang said to the hospital staff nearby. T/his chapter is updat/ed by nov(ê(l)biin.c/o/m

The staff were caught in a dilemma, considering that this man had just attempted murder.

However, they quickly thought of a compromise. Wang Wei was placed in a restraint room, allowing Li Huowang to talk to him through the iron bars. There would be no chance of another incident under such circumstances.

Li Huowang looked at Wang Wei again after everyone left. Wang Wei now seemed even more deranged. His eyes were wide open and bloodshot, reflecting the madness within him. He drooled from the corners of his mouth, which twitched slightly.

“Are you one of them?” Li Huowang asked.

Wang Wei stared back at Li Huowang but said nothing.

“What do they want? I want to talk to them,” Li Huowang said.

This was a probe. Li Huowang first needed to know their identity, regardless of their intentions.

He found it rather hard to believe they were the Leotians that Qian Fu mentioned, or the group plundering supernatural abilities Chen Hongyu spoke of. He wanted to meet them personally and see them with his own eyes.

Wang Wei did not respond directly but instead said, “You answer my question first. When did you stop believing in these possibilities? Are those your true thoughts? Or is it because someone made you think that way?”

He raised his voice. “Li Huowang, don’t trust Yi Donglai! He’s actually harming you!

“Think about it! What has Yi Donglai done? If he truly cared about you, why wasn’t he by your side when you were in trouble?

“That world exists! Yi Donglai is harming you! He has sealed your abilities! You need to remember to become whole!

“You are not sick! You have extraordinary talents! You don’t need treatment or medication!”

“Not good!” Qian Fu quickly covered Li Huowang’s ears. “Don’t listen to him! The Leotians are bewitching you. Don’t stop, don’t look, don’t think!”

Qian Fu forcefully dragged Li Huowang out. Actually, Li Huowang was about to leave on his own. There was no valuable information they could gain from Wang Wei.

“Alright, stop covering my ears. My mind isn’t so fragile that I’ll be shaken by a few words,” Li Huowang said in the hospital lobby as he shook off Qian Fu’s hands.

He glanced at Chen Hongyu beside him and asked, “What are you planning to do now?”

“Why are you asking me? Aren’t you the ones who invited me to come out of retirement?” Chen Hongyu said and picked her nose.

“We need others besides her, right?” Li Huowang asked Qian Fu.

In any case, Chen Hongyu had just saved his life—making more friends like her was worth it. She might be mentally ill, but she was still helpful.

Qiang Fu replied, “Yes, we need to find Qing Wanglai next.”

“Qing Wanglai?” Li Huowang frowned. “Sounds like a man’s name. Is he also mentally ill?”

“No, he’s not mentally ill. He’s a scholar.”

“A scholar? A student?” Li Huowang almost thought he had misheard. There was actually a normal person among Qian Fu’s helpers.

“No. Qing Wanglai is a graduate student,” Chen Hongyu added.
