David sighed. "Make your injuries worse. You're not convincing at all. Also, I called an ambulance for you."
"What? Why? "
"You seriously injured four people and you didn't even go to the hospital. Is that self-defense?"
"Fine. Do I need to lie on the ground now?"
"As long as you're happy." David couldn't be bothered with Chen Zhao anymore.
Nevertheless, Chen Zhao still obediently lay down in the ambulance.
Adele was in Mountain Town at the moment.
She sat in a restaurant and watched the police cars and ambulances whizzing past.
A smile appeared on Adele's face.
She'd hired those gangsters to cause trouble for Chen Zhao.
Adele left the restaurant and followed the ambulance.
She followed them all the way to the hospital.
Adele saw Chen Zhao being pushed out of the ambulance.
Her smile became even more satisfied.
Although she didn't know Chen Zhao and didn't know who he was.
However, Chen Zhao was the boss of the two outsiders who'd been watching her.
He must've sent them.
But Adele didn't do this just for revenge.
She also wanted to find out from Chen Zhao what his goal was.
…
"Darling, I probably won't be able to come home tonight." Chen Zhao called Fali. "I … I'm in the hospital now. I beat up those gangsters, but David told me to act more realistically. I'll pretend to be injured and stay in the hospital for the night. Then I'll get the hospital to write a certificate of serious injuries. I'll have Alex take it to the police tomorrow."
"Okay, I'll be careful next time. At least I won't hit so hard … Okay, rest well."
As soon as Chen Zhao hung up, he saw a nurse push a cart in.
"Sir, it's time to take medicine."
"Medicine?" Chen Zhao was stunned. He hadn't agreed to take medicine.
He hadn't even been diagnosed. What medicine?
"I don't know, but the police and doctor outside said that your arm has a soft tissue injury. They'll need to put a cast on you later."
Hearing this, Chen Zhao's face darkened.
The first person he thought of was David.
David had tricked him on purpose.
"I don't need medicine."
The nurse had already prepared a syringe. She drew a bottle of medicine and glanced at Chen Zhao.
"If you don't need medicine, you can tell the doctor."
"What medicine is it?" Chen Zhao asked.
"I don't know. Ask the doctor yourself."
Chen Zhao picked up the empty bottle from the cart and looked. "Is this anesthetic?"
"The doctor prescribed it for you. I don't know. Give me your arm."
The nurse grabbed Chen Zhao's wrist and was about to pry his sleeve open.
"Wait, rub it with alcohol first."
"A grown man doesn't need to go through so much trouble."
Damn, this nurse must be a newbie.
Alcohol was used to soothe the condition of the skin and also to make the veins clearer.
It also had a certain analgesic effect.
Moreover, his skin was rough and his flesh was thick. If the needle pierced through, it would definitely break.
"Forget it. I'll do it myself." Chen Zhao was about to get some alcohol.
However, the nurse continued to push the needle downwards.
Chen Zhao immediately grabbed the needle.
The nurse didn't care too much. She felt some resistance in her hand, so she pushed harder. She was sure that the needle had stabbed into Chen Zhao's palm.
"Who are you?" Chen Zhao frowned at the nurse.
At this time, she stopped pretending and pulled down her mask.
"You are …" Chen Zhao found the nurse familiar, but he wasn't sure if he really knew her.
The nurse was Adele in disguise. Adele had a mocking expression on her face.
She directly lifted the blanket covering Chen Zhao.
"What are you doing?"
"I'm taking you to an interesting place, of course."
With that, Adele reached out and dragged Chen Zhao off the bed. Then she placed him on the wheelchair beside her.
"F * * k, why are you so heavy?"
Adele finally moved Chen Zhao onto the wheelchair and then started pushing him out.
At the same time, Chen Zhao felt something sharp poking his back.
"You better not make any noise. Otherwise, you might get hurt."
"Fine, I promise I won't scream."
Actually, Adele was quite worried.
If Chen Zhao really screamed in the hospital …
She wasn't confident that she could escape.
After all, there were still police outside.
The anesthetic she'd prepared for Chen Zhao was very strong.
But she didn't understand why Chen Zhao could still make a sound.
Perhaps the effects weren't there yet.
Thankfully, Chen Zhao didn't plan on crying for help at all.
"Put the knife down. It's uncomfortable to keep poking it. You don't have to keep the knife in your hand. With your speed, you can kill me in a very short time. Plus, I value my life very much. I won't cry for help."
Adele clearly didn't believe Chen Zhao. She still poked Chen Zhao's back with the knife and pushed the wheelchair forward.
When they reached the parking lot, Adele wanted to shove Chen Zhao into the trunk again.
"If you shove me into the trunk, I'll keep screaming."
A fierce glint flashed across Adele's eyes.
"Are you threatening me?"
"Look at how cooperative I am. Am I not trustworthy?" Smiling, Chen Zhao looked at Adele. "I can do whatever you want, but don't shove me into the trunk. I don't like it there."
"You don't have a choice now."
"No, I do." Smiling, Chen Zhao looked at Adele. "As long as you haven't completely escaped, I do."
"Hmph!"
Adele was very unhappy with Chen Zhao's attitude.
However, she still didn't want to attract too much attention here.
Thus, she still decided to put Chen Zhao in the passenger seat.
Just like Chen Zhao said, he was very obedient.
So obedient that it was as if he was Adele's old friend.
After the car started, Chen Zhao asked, "Where are we going now?"
"Not us, me."
"It's the same. Wherever you go, you'll take me. You can't just leave me behind, right?"
"That's possible."
Adele glanced at Chen Zhao. "Are you imagining that someone will come and save you?"
"I can save myself too."
"Then how do you plan to save yourself?"
"For example, money. I have money, a lot of money," Chen Zhao said.
"Ha … You think I kidnapped you for money?"
"Maybe your original intention wasn't money, but if you have enough money, you might as well change your mind."
Adele found Chen Zhao funny, very funny.
He was actually using such a stupid method to survive.
In a regular kidnapping case, once the kidnapper's request was satisfied, the first thing they would consider was not keeping their promise.
Their first concern was not to keep their promise, but to get rid of all evidence.
And the biggest evidence was the hostage itself.
"How much money can you give me?"
