Chapter 85: The Art of Caution and the Double-Crosser

*New York University Medical Center*

John lay in agony, experiencing the bitter end. Even after his last breath, he remained unseeing. Soon after, the police arrived, and under the female detective’s command, they began cleaning up the scene.

Since this was a hospital, once the evidence was secured, medical staff moved in immediately. The body was transported to the morgue for an autopsy to determine the exact cause of death and corroborate the crime scene fi...

“Damn it!”

The female detective cursed in frustration as she prepared to rush forward to help.

“Holy shit! What are you doing?!”

Adam moved even faster than her, but the scene that followed made her eyes widen in shock.

Adam lunged straight at Esther, grabbed her by the back of her neck, lifted her off the ground, and slammed her against the wall.

Before Esther could scream for help, Adam immediately spoke up to explain the situation.

If he didn’t clarify things first, who knew how the security guards would react?

His plan was simple: hand Esther over to security right away, and let them ...

As Adam pressed the emergency button beside the hospital bed while performing CPR on the boy, the ICU doctors and nurses rushed in, taking over from him.

Leonard stood frozen nearby, taking deep breaths while frantically using his asthma inhaler.

It was too intense, too terrifying.

Seimei glanced at his clone and said directly, "I'm heading out. Just like before, stay in the village. If anything urgent comes up, notify me."

"Got it."

The shadow clone nodded briefly, giving a simple response.

Satisfied, Seimei was about to leave but suddenly remembered his decision from...
