If Feng Mu were present at this moment, he would surely recognize the bald man before him as the doctor Ge Qingming from the black clinic.

Today, Ge Qingming wasn't wearing a white coat, but instead, was dressed in a pair of trousers and a white shirt, looking much like an insurance salesman who doesn't quite fit in, his collar stained and his cuffs faded from frequent washing.

Perhaps, Feng Mu might also recall the cloth doll on Ge Qingming's shoulder, the same peculiar doll that hung over the clinic's door.

If Feng Mu could witness this scene and see the familiar face beside Ge Qingming stuffing intestines into an empty belly, he might think up a complete story in his mind.

Unfortunately, Feng Mu was not here.

He was now lying in bed, ears perked, intently listening to the hushed conspiracies of his senior brothers and sisters in the courtyard.

Liu Xie took out a wanted poster from the Patrol Office and said quietly, "I checked at the Arresting Bureau today and found out that our little junior brother's enemy is the same criminal the Patrol Office is currently chasing down."

Gong Qi raised an eyebrow, "What did this person do?"

Liu Xie remained expressionless, "The Patrol Office claims this person is a villain of Destiny, but from what I know of the Patrol Office, that's just an excuse; they're after him for other reasons."

Wang Yu also nodded, "I tried to make some inquiries on the sly, but found nothing; the Patrol Office is keeping this very hush-hush."

Zhao Zhixin sneered, "That place which normally leaks like a sieve also learned how to keep secrets now? This person really is deeply involved."

The atmosphere in the room suddenly grew tense, and everyone fell into a brief silence.

Once things involve Destiny, even if it's just a surface excuse, being involved still means there are huge risks.

Everyone was weighing the possible consequences in their minds, knowing well that stepping into this murky water could drag them into a whirlpool they couldn't foresee.

Gong Qi worriedly said, "Should we ask the little junior brother to come out and discuss?"

Yuan Xidi scoffed, "Ask him what? Since he's the enemy, we need to kill him regardless, right?"

Gong Qi shook his head, "That's not what I meant, it's just too risky, asking to make it clear might not…"

Zhao Zhixin interjected, "Together we live, together we die. Since the little junior brother joined us, his troubles are ours, and ours are his as well."

"If today we ask him why he has a grudge, might he also ask us tomorrow why we attract trouble? This asking back and forth will ruin our trust in each other."

Hong Ya nodded repeatedly and said with exuberant spirit, "Third senior brother is right, I, Hong Ya, don't bother with so many worries; even if there's danger, the whole Ronggui Sect will face it together, even in the afterlife, we won't fear sleeping."

Li Bashan remained expressionless, his thick fingers stabbing through the sketch of the Black Face, gruffly and succinctly announced, "Kill him!"

Yuan Xidi tugged at the bandage on his head, baring his teeth wildly, "Forget the consequences, just kill."

Liu Xie glanced around, noticing the consensus among everyone, her face remained stoic, without any hint of emotion, "As the eldest senior brother said, there's no such thing as a big or small trouble, as long as we can slog through, it's nothing more than a scab; if we trip over a small trouble, it's a disaster."

Li Bashan was slightly taken aback, wondering if his earlier words truly carried such profound meaning.

However, when he caught Hong Ya's admiring gaze, he cleared his throat, acknowledging the words, indeed expressing his sentiment – second sister gets me.

Wang Yu stood up suddenly, his tone as firm as steel, "We'll kill him before the Patrol Office does!"

Zhao Zhixin's mouth curved into a sinister smile as he said harshly, "No matter how deeply our little junior brother is involved with this person, once he's dead, the line is cut, and the Patrol Office can't get the dead to implicate our little junior brother."

Liu Xie concluded, "This is urgent, there's no need to go to the prison or the Investigation Corps for now."

"Eldest senior brother, sit tight at home, third and fifth brothers watch the Patrol Office closely, Laoliu, use your connections to find the person, Hong Ya, take good care of our little junior brother, and make sure he doesn't leave the martial arts school."

Liu Xie paused, seeing everyone understood, then continued, "Once we find him, we act immediately to kill him. If the Patrol Office finds him first, we get in and intercept to kill him."

Fourth brother, Yuan Xidi, plaintively said, "Second sister, did you forget about me?"

Liu Xie's gaze was icy as she swept over Yuan Xidi, sighing inwardly.

She knew fourth brother never disappointed when it came to killing, but when it came to pre-investigation and tracking, he was more likely to cause trouble than help.

In a calm but unyielding tone, she instructed,

"Fourth brother, your task is critical. You must get nine passes out of the Investigation Corps. Also, carefully pack at home so everyone can quickly evacuate if things go awry."

Yuan Xidi nodded repeatedly, patting his chest, "Yes, second sister, leave it to me, fourth brother, it'll be foolproof."

Inside the house,

Listening to the footsteps of everyone leaving the meeting,

Feng Mu's emotions were incredibly mixed inside; his senior brothers and sisters seemed to misunderstand. That Black Face was just an A-level cultist of the Calamity Corpse Sect, and nothing compared to something like Destiny, an SSS-level organization.

Even though he doesn't know what trick the Patrol Office is playing, they wouldn't blow it up to the point of a sect extermination crisis just by killing a Black Face.

The Black Face wasn't significant enough for that!

However,

Feng Mu couldn't just jump out and forcibly explain, after all, he felt guilty as a thief:

"The senior brothers and sisters aren't entirely mistaken, after all, the one truly involved with Destiny has quietly become your little junior brother. Oh, if you all suffer misfortune because of this later, don't blame me; blame our master for being so persistent in pushing it. Ugh, what a fate."

Honestly, sitting at home doing nothing while another group outside works tirelessly on your behalf, even cleaning up, does have its merits in moving a villain to tears.

......

The rolling shutter door creaked open.

As the door emitted long creaking noises, slowly rising, Ge Qingming stepped into the dimly lit black clinic.

He paused slightly inside the threshold, turning his head, his gaze pierced through the dim hallway and landed on Feng Yuhuai standing at the doorway.

Feng Yuhuai hobbled, her clothes and pants stained with mud, her face smeared with bloodstains, and ant corpses lingering in her gaping wounds, a grisly sight to behold.

Feng Yuhuai stood at the doorway, her face shrouded in gloom; towards this bald man who pulled her back from the edge of death, she felt not a bit of gratitude, only deep-seated dread and fear.

A gaunt man, his intestines coiled around his waist, as if devoid of life, existing only as a walking dead, making Feng Yuhuai's hair stand on end.

The martial arts classes at school certainly didn't teach her how to deal with such eerie phenomena!

"Out of the tiger's den, into the wolf's lair."

This was what Feng Yuhuai felt in her heart at this moment, now she fervently believed in her intuition.

Her intuition told her, falling into that Black Face's hands might mean quick death, but stepping foot into this black clinic at the invitation likely meant nightmares would haunt her the remainder of her life, trapping her in despair where she couldn't live or die.
