Chapter 58

“Is the antidote in Ye Fan’s hand real?”

Of course it’s fake!

Right now, the actual timeline for the very first episode of the comic’s plot hasn’t even started yet.

How could there possibly be an antidote?

So all of this was a trap that Zhang Chen deliberately orchestrated and had others prepare.

The sole purpose was to mess with his mental state.

To completely break the psyche of the Child of Destiny, Ye Fan.

“In despair and self-blame, what will the Child of Destiny become?”

Zhang Chen admitted—he was very much looking forward to finding out.

Extremely looking forward to it.

On the surveillance monitor, one could see that the moment Ye Fan injected the “antidote” into Ye Yiyi’s arm.

The entire atmosphere shifted.

“This feeling… this must be what it’s like when a Child of Destiny is abandoned by fate, right?”

Zhang Chen found it hard to describe the change he sensed at that moment.

It was beyond words.

Inside the ICU ward, Ye Fan looked visibly tense.

It could be said that for him to reach this point today.

There was no turning back.

There was no way to return to how things were.

“Yiyi!”

Ye Fan completely ignored the plainclothes officers outside.

His eyes were fixed on the hospital bed, where Ye Yiyi lay.

He had been willing to become a corporate spy, even a murderer.

All for the sake of saving his sister’s life.

Outside the ward, a few plainclothes patrol officers rushed in without hesitation.

They pinned Ye Fan to the floor.

He didn’t resist, only keeping his eyes firmly locked on the hospital bed.

“Ye Fan, you’re suspected of multiple crimes. We’re taking you in for an official investigation. Cooperate.”

One officer cuffed Ye Fan’s hands behind his back and read him his rights in a formulaic tone.

At this moment, they even breathed a slight sigh of relief.

“Captain Xu, the suspect’s been secured.”

Another plainclothes officer picked up his radio.

“Also, Miss Lin’s condition is critical. Get medical staff over here, fast!”

“Yes! And Ye Yiyi doesn’t look quite right either!”

Several officers approached for a closer look.

Each one felt something unsettling.

Ye Fan struggled to sit up.

Even if he was being taken away, he had to see his sister wake up.

But right then.

Something changed.

With several loud crashing noises and startled shouts.

One of the officers who had approached the bed was suddenly blasted back by an invisible force!

A full-grown adult man, weighing seventy to eighty kilograms, was sent flying like a toy.

He slammed into a wall several meters away.

This sudden event stunned everyone in the room.

“What just happened?!”

“Xiao Liu!”

“What the hell was that?!”

The other plainclothes officers were all shocked and tense.

Some instinctively reached for their weapons.

Meanwhile, Ye Fan, still handcuffed and pinned down, shouted,

“Yiyi!”

Looking closely, Ye Yiyi, who had been unconscious with fading vital signs, was now floating off the hospital bed.

Yes!

Floating in mid-air!

As if a pair of invisible hands were holding her up.

At the same time, an ear-piercing scream erupted from Ye Yiyi’s mouth.

“Quick! Call someone!”

“Where’s the medical staff?”

“Damn it, what the hell is going on?!”

This group of plainclothes officers had never dealt with the supernatural before.

They had no clue what to do.

Two officers tried to approach, but just like the first, they were flung away with a bang!

“Captain Xu, this girl is not normal!”

The first officer who had been blasted away finally managed to climb up, wincing in pain and trembling with fear.

The other two also got up.

“Yeah! Something’s off!”

“It felt like we got smashed by something huge!”

The remaining officers were half in disbelief, but witnessing their teammates, who they’d worked with day in and day out, get tossed like rag dolls was no joke.

No way those guys were faking this.

There were three adult men!

And they got flung across the room like feathers?

Ye Fan was equally stunned.

His eyes turned red watching his sister float in mid-air.

Unfortunately, his hands were still cuffed—he couldn’t break free.

Luckily, while the others were distracted by the shocking change in Ye Yiyi, He managed to scramble up, knock aside two officers, and stagger over to her.

“Yiyi! Don’t scare me! What’s happening?!”

Everything that was happening in the ward was visible on the surveillance screen.

“Oh? So there are unexpected developments after all?”

Zhang Chen hadn’t planned for this, but on second thought, it didn’t affect things much.

He was starting to suspect something.

So he remained calm and composed.

But Wei Division Chief couldn’t stay still.

The moment he saw what was happening on screen, His face drastically changed.

He stood up in a flash, eyes filled with shock and seriousness.

“No! Something’s going wrong!”

His tone revealed he was no longer as calm as before.

Tonight’s operation didn’t require the Demon-Slaying Division to step in.

Dealing with a regular human, Jiangdong City’s police were more than enough.

If not for the fact that this case involved a high-level plan of the Demon-Slaying Division, Wei wouldn’t have even bothered to get involved.

But now, seeing this.

Damn.

Zhang Chen feigned ignorance: “What’s wrong?”

“That girl is starting to mutate!”

Wei responded quickly and didn’t wait for Zhang Chen to understand.

He pulled out his radio immediately: “All personnel in the hospital, head to the ICU immediately! I repeat—go there.”

“NOW!”

The Demon-Slaying Division didn’t have many people.

But tonight, they did bring a few operatives.

Upon hearing the order, they all looked surprised.

“ICU? Isn’t that covered by the city patrol?”

“Do we really need to step in for this?”

“Isn’t the kid we’re after just a regular human?”

Outside the hospital, a few were smoking and chatting.

When they suddenly got the call, they were confused.

But they quickly understood why.

“The demonic energy is intense!”

“Shit! A demon showed up in the hospital?!”

As members of the Demon-Slaying Division, they crushed out their cigarettes immediately and charged back inside.

Arriving outside the ward before they even got close, they heard screams, and saw several bodies flying out of the room!

The temperature on the entire floor plummeted. It became bone-chillingly cold.

Looking closer.

The plainclothes officers were all down.

Some were unconscious, others twitching in agony.
