Chapter 26 Fake Cripples?
“Mr. Finn, since we’re out, if you have any place you want to go, you can tell the driver and just drop me off at the downtown.” Ruby pondered for a moment before finally deciding to make a run to the Institute.
The experimental drug used on Taylor was a type C drug, and if the clinical trial was really successful and put into use, it would be a miracle in the medical world, and brain-dead patients would have chance to come to life.
There were just a lot of unknown side effects of this drug that none of them knew for the time being, and Taylor was the first patient to use this drug, and a lot of data was very important to them.
“Oh? Miss Fiancee, so you’re done using me and you’re just going to throw me away? I’m just afraid that it’s not that easy.” Levi’s thin lips hooked out a seductive arc, and the eyes shrouded under the mask took a hint of danger.
“Why don’t you sleep in the car first, Mr. Fiance?” The silver needles between Ruby’s fingers were ready, as long as Levi dared to say a word of refusal, she would immediately knock him down and let him sleep in the car.
The corner of Levi’s eyes glimpsed the silver light on her fingertips, and thinking of how well she used silver needles, the smile at the corner of his mouth grew bigger, “What if I don’t sleep? Hmm?”
The man’s trailing voice trailed off, indescribably seductive.
However, Ruby didn’t have the time to appreciate it, suddenly approached forward, and the silver needle in her hand was about to be stuck on Levi’s acupuncture point.
However, before she could succeed, her wrist was successfully caught, and with a slight force, Ruby felt a pain in her wrist, and when her hand let go, therefore the silver needle fell to the ground.This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.
Ruby’s face changed abruptly as she looked at the man in front of her with disbelief.
That good?
What’s going on in H Country? Why is everyone she meets back home so unbelievably skilled?
Ruby, who was running rampant in F Country, was defeated for the second time.
She felt so devastated that she even wondered if she was so unskilled that she would actually miss again and again.
“Miss Fiancee, it’s not good to play with needles.” Levi looked at the silver needles that had fallen on the car, and with a slight force on his hand, Ruby fell directly into his arms.
The faint fragrance of the woman’s body is very good, not the smell of the poor quality perfume on other women, clear and light, seems to be some kind of flower fragrance, and seems to be mixed with some herbs, which makes him subconsciously relax.
Levi had only just relaxed, but suddenly his pupils shrank, and his right hand reflexively blocked it.
It was at this moment that the silver needle that was meant to be stuck in his waist got stuck in his arm.
He gave Ruby a somewhat stunned look.
Ruby responded too quickly than he expected, and it hit hard.
“Murdering your husband?” Levi looked at Ruby with a wry smile.
Ruby was in a very awkward position with her hands under control.
This inexplicable familiarity reminded Ruby of someone.
The man in front of her was almost identical to the man except for the fact that he didn’t sound much like him and his face could not be seen clearly with a mask on it.
“Just kidding, Mr. Fiance, you are skillful.” Ruby put away her carelessness and became cautious.
Whether the two are the same or not, they are very dangerous.
“Oh? So fond of kidding?” Levi laughed softly, because the two of them were so close that Ruby could clearly feel the sound of his chest puffing when he laughed, the sound was low and deep, indescribably sexy and seductive.
“I …” Ruby was just about to speak, but Levi’s mobile phone rang abruptly, a very sharp and harsh ringtone that made people subconsciously feel uncomfortable when listening to it.
After Levi heard the phone ring, his face changed and he let go of Ruby and answered the phone.
Although it was close, Ruby did not hear clearly what was said inside the phone, and then she saw that Levi’s aura sank fiercely, and the atmosphere inside the entire carriage became depressingly silent.
She looked at Levi with some curiosity.
Levi’s low, depressed voice rang out in the carriage, “I know, I’ll be right over, you first have the doctor stabilize his condition.”
After saying that, he hung up the phone straight away, his brow furrowed as if he had encountered something difficult to solve.
“Driver, pull over.” Levi spoke in a cold voice, not even bothering to discuss it with Ruby.
The driver pulled over to the front.
“Get off.” Levi didn’t look at Ruby, his face condensed and frightening.
Ruby always felt that the image in front of her was bewilderingly familiar, as if she had experienced it just a short while ago.
She pulled open the door and got out of the car, the door was closed with a bang. Ruby looked at the man sitting in the car with some dismay, he just seemed to, like, stand up?
So this damn crippled thing is a fake?
Is the disfigurement fake too?
The corners of Ruby’s mouth twitched fiercely, this Levi was really sinister, and she didn’t know who exactly he wanted to backstab.
Watching that stretch Lincoln go away in dust in front of her, Ruby ate a mouthful of car exhaust.
She waited a while before calling a taxi and going straight to the Institute.

Sea City, South Mountain.
The whole mountain is cordoned, with a sentry in every five steps, so not even a fly can get in.
A modified black Land Rover drove in at speed and finally stopped in front of a three-story bungalow halfway up the hill.
The man in black clothes and pants jumped down from the car, cold and stern, he was no one but Levi who had just separated from Ruby.
Levi’s face was grim, and after getting out of the car, he entered a room on the first floor.
It was a little dimly lit inside, and a figure could be vaguely seen on the hospital bed, and at that moment there were two middle-aged men with red eyes inside the ward, in addition to the doctor and nurse.
Seeing that Levi had arrived, the two men stepped forward, their eyes instantly reddened, “Mr. Levi, Teddie may not be able to wait for the medicine to be shipped over from F Country. The doctor said that there were less than eight hours left.”
Before Levi came, he already had a feeling that the situation would be bad, but he did not expect it to be this bad.
“What did Dr. Moore say?” He grimaced, looking at the man in the hospital bed, unable to take his eyes off of him for a moment.
“He said that no one can save him unless it’s DR. C.” The middle-aged man spoke in a low tone, his voice slightly choked.
Levi’s heart sank as well.
If DR. C was that easy to be found, Teddie’s situation wouldn’t have repeatedly deteriorated to this point.
He rubbed his brow in annoyance before spitting out, “Get me Dr. Moore on the phone, and by whatever means, make sure you get in touch with DR. C. Tell him that any terms will do.”
“Yes.”

It was already an hour later when Ruby arrived at the Institute.
The Institute is located beneath a ruined house on the west side of the city, a ruin above and the highest level of research in the country below.
Ruby passed the pupil recognition system and entered the Institute.
Just as she entered, she saw Dr. Moore walking over in a hurry, and when he saw her, he pulled her aside, “Ruby, it’s still the same patient from last time, he’s in a critical condition, and he can’t wait for the D3 reagent to arrive from F Country, please do something to save him.”
