"Hi, David." A woman walked into the office.
David was reading through a case file. He looked up at the person.
"You're … Ms. Sienna." David immediately stood up. "Hello, hello. How can I help you?"
"Your captain asked me to come here."
"He's out on duty. He'll be back in the afternoon. I'll call him."
Sienna was the consultant of the West City Branch of Los Angeles. She was also a real spiritualist.
David had never worked with Sienna before, but he'd heard about her from their captain.
The cases that Sienna had been involved in had all been solved.
It was said that Sienna could communicate with the dead. This reminded David of Chen Zhao.
He wondered if Sienna or Chen was more powerful.
"Ms. Sienna, you're a spiritualist, right?"
"Ha …" Sienna chuckled, not answering David's question directly.
This was no secret in the police station, but she'd never communicated with the souls of the dead in front of any police officer.
One reason was that not everyone was willing to believe that there were souls in this world.
Moreover, she couldn't make the souls appear and let everyone see them.
Even in the police station that she worked with, many people still said that she was playing tricks behind her back.
"Ms. Sienna, are souls the same as us living people?"
Sienna glanced at David. "Do you believe that there are souls in this world?"
"Yes, and I also believe that spiritualists can see souls and communicate with them. Yesterday, another spiritualist came to our station, but he said that he's an amateur spiritualist. He can communicate with souls."
"Ha … Do you believe him just because he says so?"
Sienna sneered. She'd seen many people in the same profession, but most of them were liars.
They were usually mysterious and even talked big in some TV programs. But in Sienna's eyes, they were all liars.
Of course, Sienna couldn't prove that they were liars, just like how she couldn't prove that she wasn't a liar.
"It's true. My colleague and I saw the cup fly to us. He even helped us save a mother and daughter."
"Huh? The souls he saw belonged to the mother and daughter? "Sienna immediately asked in surprise.
"Yes, the mother and daughter's souls found him and begged him to save them. Now the mother has woken up, but she doesn't seem to remember her soul leaving her body. However, her daughter is still in a severe coma. The doctor said that the girl's brain is lacking oxygen, and it is very likely that she will remain in a coma forever."
Sienna frowned. "Which hospital is the girl in now?"
"What's wrong? Is there a problem? "
"Tell me, which hospital is the girl in now?" Sienna asked.
"At …" David told Sienna where the girl was.
"I'm leaving. Tell your captain that I have something urgent to do." Sienna left without looking back.
David chased after her. "Miss Sienna, can you tell me what happened?"
"That girl is in danger."
"What? Is someone trying to harm her? "David was shocked. There was no police protection over there.
"It's not a person," Sienna said. "It's useless to tell you. The police can't help anyway."
"Miss Sienna, we saved the girl. We have the responsibility to protect her. Please tell me who wants to harm her."
"It's useless." Sienna walked out of the police station, but David still chased after her relentlessly. "Miss Sienna, we can definitely protect the girl. Please tell me what we need to do."
"You can't do anything. You can only cause trouble."
"We can request for more firepower. L.A. has an anti-terrorism department."
"That's not something humans can defeat. It's an evil spirit that threatens the girl's life. Do you understand? In their eyes, she's like a delicious cake … Never mind. You won't believe it anyway. "
David stood rooted to the ground, stunned. "Evil spirit?"
Sienna had already left, but David was still in a daze.
Suddenly, David thought of someone. Chen Zhao.
Perhaps he could help. Perhaps he could protect that woman.
No, he definitely could!
David immediately found Chen Zhao's number.
…
"Hello, I'm Chen Zhao."
"Mr. Chen, I'm Morgery. You should remember me, right? I need your help."
"Morgery? I remember now. You were the one who pointed a gun at my head for the first time in my life, right?! "Chen Zhao was instantly enraged. He was really enraged.
That experience had almost scared him to the point of peeing.
Now, he was talking to the phone, so he vented all of his anger.
"Mr. Chen, I'm very sorry about that … I'm really sorry. I need your help now."
"Help? Sorry, I won't help you anymore. "
"Ten thousand dollars!" Morgery said, gritting his teeth. "I promise I won't offend you again. I promise with my dignity."
Ten thousand dollars wasn't a small amount.
Chen Zhao thought for a moment. "Tell me first. Something happened to you or someone close to you."
"Me, my boss, and two friends. We're being chased and we're all injured. One of our friends' injuries are very serious. I can't think of anyone who can help us."
"If I go, can you ensure my safety? At least I won't be killed by you guys. "
"Yes, yes, I promise. I promise with my life."
"Okay, tell me where I need to go."
"I'm at your door," Morgery said.
Chen Zhao pulled open the curtains and looked outside. There was indeed a car parked on the road.
Chen Zhao walked out with Beelzebub and his toolbox. After getting into the car, Chen Zhao saw that Morgery's abdomen was already dyed red and his forehead was covered in cold sweat.
"Mr. Chen, I promise your safety, but before that, can you turn off your phone? I trust you, but I don't want anyone to find us through you."
"Okay, but you need treatment."
"Let's leave here first." Morgery drove the car away.
"Let me check your injuries first." Chen Zhao pulled open Morgery's shirt. "Luckily, the bullet didn't stay in your body. It pierced through your right abdomen. You've lost a lot of blood."
"Drink this. I'll stitch up your wound." Chen Zhao handed a diluted demonic crystal potion to Morgery. "Endure the pain. Oh, and don't drive the car into the ditch."
As Morgery drove, he endured the pain.
"Chen, if there's a next time, can you please bring some anesthetics? Not everyone can endure this pain."
"No, I don't have a medical license. I can't get anesthetics."
"I have a way," Morgery said.
"Tell me what's going on. Why are you being hunted?"
"Are you sure you want to know?"
"Never mind. Pretend I didn't ask."
"Actually, it's nothing. After all, our current situation isn't a secret in either the legal or illegal world. There's a police informant in our team. We were betrayed and our business was destroyed by the FBI. Our enemies are now hunting us."
"You can't even protect yourselves now. How can you help me get controlled drugs?"
"That's two different things."
"You really have a way to get some drugs for me?"
To be honest, Chen Zhao really needed such a way.
This was the problem of being an illegal doctor. Drugs were hard to get.
For example, analgesics and anesthetics couldn't be bought without a prescription from a proper doctor.
Chen Zhao really needed some drugs, which was why he asked Morgery again.
"Of course, but the price is different from the market. Even the cheapest is twice the price of a proper pharmacy. Some drugs are even ridiculously expensive. You have to be prepared."
