Chapter 88: The Specter Returns

s, and do everything you can to track down Ding Sheng! I want him found even if we have to dig three feet underground! Have the surveillance cameras in this area checked 24 hours a day!" Lü Fang shou...The car started, and the two sped towards People's Hospital. After Wang Lin's analysis, since the original gu was supposed to lay eggs, it probably wouldn't leave the hospital too far. They should start by checking the hospital first.

Half an hour later, Wang Lin and the two took out their IDs and smoothly entered the hospital building where Zhang Meng's case had occurred. Zhang Meng's sensing range was fifty meters; he sensed twice and scanned the entire hospital building once, but found nothing.

Neither of them was discouraged. If it were that easy to find, the leaders of the Municipal Bureau wouldn't have gone through so much trouble searching for it.

After scanning the entire hospital, the two began searching eastward. Zhang Meng continuously sensed his surroundings, while Wang Lin held onto his protective suit listlessly, hanging behind him.

"Xiaolin! Is that you"

Suddenly, a hoarse voice came. Wang Lin followed the sound and saw that the village director's wife was running towards him.

"Xiaolin! It's really you! That's great, please save Uncle Hongqi! Auntie Li begs you!"

The village chief's wife, this woman who called herself "Aunt Li," was now haggard and disheveled. Her hair was unkempt, her face smeared with dirt, and she was covered in tear stains. Her eyes looked sunken from lack of sleep.

Coming to think of it, he probably knew what happened in the early morning. He hadn't slept well all night, and luckily he was staying at a hotel outside, which saved his life.

"Aunt Li, how can I help I'm just an ordinary person, not a doctor."

Wang Lin was also a bit helpless. Although the village head wasn't very good, Aunt Li had always been a gentle woman. She was always cheerful when she saw people in the village. If anyone was having a hard time, she would take the initiative to help.

"Aunt Li doesn't understand anything else, she only knows that you, Xiao Lin, are the most capable person in our village. You must have a way, right"

She had been running around asking for help since the morning, but this matter was too big. Even if others wanted to help, they couldn't. Ordinary people simply couldn't understand the specifics.

At this time, seeing Wang Lin was like grasping the last straw. He knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Wang Lin non-stop.

Wang Lin saw Li Shn kneeling and hurried forward to help her up, but he didn't know where Li Shn got the strength from. She ignored Wang Lin and kept bowing her head in a continuous kowtow.

The village chief's accident felt like the world was ending to her. She was heartbroken and utterly devastated. Now, hearing that Wang Lin seemed to know some of the inside story, she instantly felt a glimmer of hope.

"Please, Xiao Lin, please save your Uncle Hongqi! From now on, Auntie Li will do anything to repay you."

Wang Lin was still trying to help Auntie Li up, but Auntie Li refused to get up. He didn't dare use more force and could only comfort her helplessly.

"Auntie Li, if Uncle Hongqi still has a chance, I will definitely not give up on him. You can rest assured!"

Li Shěn raised her head, tears blurring her vision as she looked at Wang Lin, choking back sobs, "Really Xiao Lin, thank you, thank you!"

Saying that, he was about to kowtow to Wang Lin again. Wang Lin hurriedly helped Li's mother up and comforted her once more.

"Auntie Li, you can't really help here, and the expenses are high. It's best to go back to the village and wait for news! If there is any news, I will let you know immediately, alright"

"Okay, okay, thank you, Xiao Lin. Thank you. I'm going home now, won't give you any trouble. Please be sure to save your Uncle Hongqi!"

"Well, don't worry, Auntie Li. As long as Uncle Hong is still alive, I will never give up."

"Okay, Auntie Li, I won't bother you. You're busy! I'll be going now."

"By the way, Mrs. Li, could you tell me what happened at your house back then"

Li Shěn told Wang Lín everything that had happened after the village head went home that day, in meticulous detail.

Wang Lin nodded to Li Shn, and Li Shn didn't say anything more. She turned and walked a few steps, then turned back and knelt down to kowtow three times before turning and leaving again.

Wang Lin watched this scene and sighed heavily, his heart filled with bitterness. Poor Li Shi, her son was unfilial. After graduating from university, he never came home again. Now that her husband had an accident, her future life was left in darkness.

Zhang Meng shouted a few times from the side. Wang Lin came to his senses and chuckled, "It's fine, Mengge, continue!"

"Okay, stay close!"

"Hmm!"

The two of them set off again, and before they knew it, the afternoon was over. The carriers of those two primordial gu worms had vanished as if they had never been there.

Thousands of police conducted a thorough search, with people watching every surveillance camera, but their figures remained unseen.

After dinner, Wang Lin and the other person set off again. Having completed a thorough check within five kilometers of Renmin Hospital, they had finished their task in that area.

During the investigation period, we kept communicating with the police. Each household was thoroughly checked by officers, and even the sewers were not spared.

"Oh! If my older brother were here, he could definitely find those two beasts within half an hour with his abilities."

Zhang Meng sighed and walked down the road, constantly sensing. After each sense, he would mutter to himself.

At first, Wang Lin tried to persuade and encourage him. Now, he just pretended not to hear anything. The two kept walking, through different residential areas and shopping malls. They went up every building they saw.

Alas, no clues could be found. As the morning approached, Wang Lin grew increasingly agitated. It was almost 24 hours, and if they couldn't find anything soon, a catastrophic disaster loomed.

He prayed constantly, hoping to find the monster soon. But his wishes were never granted. Even as dawn approached, Zhang Meng had found nothing.

At this time, the two of them were sporting heavy dark circles under their eyes and bought breakfast from a street vendor. They ate and savored the moment.

Suddenly, a flurry of ringing from the phone broke the silence. Wang Lin quickly answered, said a few words, and immediately hung up.

"Those two monsters showed up, in the Jinhui District. My God, they ran really far, no wonder we couldn't find them."

"Let's go! Hurry up!"

The two of them rushed back to the car. The engine roared to life, and the car sped away quickly. Since it was early morning, there weren't many cars on the road, so they arrived at the scene of the incident very soon.

At this time, the association’s support team had also arrived, but they were unable to stop the two monsters. They broke into the residential area, killing dozens of households. After draining their blood, they quickly left and vanished without a trace once again.

The police chief, enraged, unleashed a torrent of curses before abruptly suppressing his anger. He gave Wang Lin and the others a curt nod before hurriedly leaving, presumably to return to the command center and analyze the monster's whereabouts.

Wang Lin also took out his phone, opened the map software, and kept thinking about the monster's motives for coming here. They knew that committing crimes across districts wasn't easy to be discovered, proving they were very smart.

Then, let's approach this from the perspective of a clever person and work backward, examining the inevitable connection between this district and the monster.

In today's city, there aren't many routes you can take without being caught on camera, connecting the People's Hospital and this neighborhood.

His gaze instantly locked onto a river, his brow furrowing deeper and deeper.

"Did they come swimming Did they never surface during the whole time Could it be that they no longer need to breathe, and have been staying underwater"

Wang Lin looked at the river right next to their residential area, his eyes gradually brightening. He took out his phone and quickly dialed the police chief.ong Wenxiao."Hey hey, that's not necessarily true. Have you heard about the new express delivery regulations They're going into effect soon!""Really Are you sure about the time"Wang Lin was a little s...
