Today is still a sunny day, and there is still a faint smell of disinfectant floating in the hospital.
I don’t know if the woman who sparked discussions on the Internet a few years ago lied, or if the atmosphere of American imperialism cannot reach him.
In short, Bai Herui didn't smell the sweet smell in the air today.
Well, maybe his nose is not very good...
Of course, these are all trivial matters.
The night before yesterday, he contacted Okino Yoko, who had already arrived, and Kudo Yusaku... would be arriving soon.
"quick!"
"Click!"
Different from the quiet situation in his ward at this time, in the corridor outside the door, figures kept flashing back and forth, accompanied by the sound of hospital bed wheels sliding rapidly on the tile floor.
Just ten minutes ago, he made a call to Kudo Yusaku, expressing that he had investigated a lot of information in the past few days and wanted to talk to Kudo Yusaku about something.
As he expected, Kudo Yusaku agreed on the spot and said that he would come over immediately.
With this confirmed, action quickly began inside the hospital building where Bai Herui was located.
As he had ordered before, the doctors and nurses in the building began to move all the patients on the floor where he was and the two floors above and below, for a total of three floors, to the other floors as quickly as possible. In the empty ward that had been reserved long ago.
Since it was arranged early in the morning which patient should be transferred to which ward, everyone moved very quickly. Although they were in a hurry, they did not appear panicked.
In just ten minutes, all the patients on the three floors were transferred.
Soon after, another group of "patients" entered the inpatient building.
This group of "patients" seems to be slightly different from ordinary patients. Although they are of different ages, their age range is all between young and middle-aged, and they are all male.
After being admitted to the inpatient building by doctors and nurses, these "patients" seemed to have already known which ward they should go to. They all came to the floor where Bai Herui was located, and then separated and entered different wards.
Afterwards, everything in the hospital building returned to calm, and they were just waiting quietly for their prey to come to their door.
However, those who have been hospitalized in this building for a long time may have noticed that the doctors and nurses in charge of Bai Herui's floor have all been replaced today.
"..."
"finally reached."
People didn't have to wait too long. Half an hour after Bai Herui's phone call, three black vans entered the hospital and stopped at the main entrance of the inpatient building.
"The environment is nice. These rich people really know how to choose their location."
In the car, a middle-aged white man got out, looked up at the hospital environment, and couldn't help but sigh.
His name is Michael, and he is an FBI investigator. His task today is to lead several action teams to accompany an important person here to meet someone. At the same time, he also has to protect the safety of this important person.
"Thank you."
Suddenly a male voice sounded from behind, and a middle-aged man of the same age also got out of the car.
But what is different from Michael is that this middle-aged man looks exactly like an East Asian. He is wearing a suit, is tall and thin, wears glasses, and has a small beard on his mouth. He looks a bit like the East Asians on TV. The image of a colonel that often appears.
His name is Kudo Yusaku, and he is a very famous mystery writer.
He is the important person Michael wants to protect today.
In fact, in terms of importance, Michael didn't think it was that important. After all, it was just a family. No matter how famous he was, there was no need for them to have the FBI as bodyguards, right? What's more, three action teams were sent over at the same time...
Although he thought so in his heart, Michael did not dare to say so.
The reason is very simple. The man in front of him named Kudo Yusaku seems to have a good relationship with some senior figures in the FBI, so much so that when Michael’s superior gave him the task of protecting Kudo Yusaku, he also used a He reminded him in a very serious tone:
"Mr. Yusaku is a very important person. Michael, you must not let down your guard. You must do your best to ensure his safety."
Okay, let’s just leave it at that, but Michael still couldn’t figure it out. He was just coming to the hospital to visit someone, so what was he doing with such a big show?
Could it be that because the other party is the son of the famous Karasuma Group, he is afraid of losing face?
Before coming, Michael briefly learned about the person they were going to meet this time.
Shirakawa Rui, the eldest son of the Karasuma Group, became the de facto helmsman of the Karasuma Group after his father Shirakawa Kiyo passed away ten years ago. He is quite talented in this area, but due to his natural physical weakness , has been receiving long-term treatment in the hospital.
This is a big shot...
Michael could only see people like this on TV, but he didn't expect to have the opportunity to meet him in person today!
Despite his excitement, Michael did not forget his responsibilities.
"You stay here."
After asking one agent to stay to look at the car and another to stay in the lobby on the first floor of the inpatient building, Michael took all the remaining agents and took the elevator with Kudo Yusaku toward the floor where Shirarui was. Go.
It was very quiet in the elevator. Kudo Yusaku seemed to be a relatively taciturn person. During this period, Michael saw several times from the reflection on the inside of the elevator door that he had always maintained a slightly lowered posture and his eyes were always looking at the floor, as if He was thinking about something.
This made Michael, who originally wanted to chat with him, not know how to talk to him.
"Mr. Michael."
It was a coincidence that just when Michael was thinking this, Kudo Yusaku, who had been silent all this time, suddenly called out his name.
"What's the matter? Mr. Kudo?" Michael quickly replied.
At this time, the elevator they took had almost reached Bai Herui's floor.
"After you get out of the elevator, go check on the other wards on the floor."
After thinking for a long time, Kudo Yusaku finally said this.
There was a hint of worry in his eyes hidden behind his glasses.
Although Michael is not sure about the source of his concern, it does not affect him from making the judgment he thinks is appropriate.
"I understand, Mr. Kudo."
Originally, this was something within his responsibilities, and he would do it even if Kudo Yusaku didn't say it. But now that Kudo Yusaku said it, he would naturally do it more carefully.
"Ding!"
The brief conversation ended, the elevator bell rang, and then the doors opened to both sides.
The somewhat dark corridor outside the door appeared before everyone's eyes.
They arrived.
