Chapter 365: Chapter 365

An Yan stood at the forefront, followed by Wen Ya, Wen Ge, and Luolie. Behind them were the hospital’s security personnel.

Matsumoto Mina frowned.

"What are you trying to do?"

An Yan reached out and pointed to the television screen on the wall. Fresh chapters posted on NoveI★Fire.net

Matsumoto Mina turned her head and saw herself on the screen, sitting on a toilet and making a phone call...

"You’ve been secretly filming me?"

An Yan shook her head.

"It wasn’t me who filmed it!"

At that moment, another stall door in the bathroom opened, and Xu Muwei walked out.

"It was me who filmed you! What a pleasure to meet you, Miss Meina."

Matsumoto Mina frowned at Xu Muwei, certain she had never seen this woman before.

Xu Muwei laughed mockingly.

"I am Xu Muwei, the one ordered by you to force An Yan’s father to take the medicine!"

Matsumoto Mina’s face turned cold.

"Don’t spread rumors, Miss. I haven’t even met you!"

"That’s not important! In any case, your people found me and made me live-stream An Yan’s father taking the Revival Dan. I did as I was told, but then you denied all accounts of it. So I decided to expose your true face for everyone to see. I didn’t expect to record your phone conversation with your henchman. From the sound of it, you arranged An Yan’s father’s car accident!"

Matsumoto Mina firmly denied it. "Miss, I can sue you for filming my privacy."

"Go ahead! I’ll admit to the filming, but you need to own up to ordering someone to kill."

"Whether you did or not, the police will find out!"

Xu Muwei smiled, looking towards the back of the crowd. The police had arrived.

"Matsumoto Mina, we suspect you are involved in An Zhongbo’s car accident. Please come with us to the station for an investigation!"

"I didn’t, I don’t know anything about a car accident! I never ordered anyone to kill! In that call, I never once mentioned killing. I kept saying ’save people,’ ’save people’! Officer, I just wanted a patient to prove my Revival Dan works! So everyone would know it’s truly effective!"

An Yan turned up the volume on the TV. Her subordinate’s voice could be heard:

"...Regarding An Zhongbo and An Yaoluo, our people spent several days successfully setting up the plan..."

Matsumoto Mina’s face stiffened.

"He said that, what does it have to do with me?"

Matsumoto Mina stubbornly refused to admit anything. "Officer, the pressure of the competition is immense. All I can think about right now is finding a patient to revive with the Revival Dan, to show everyone that our Revival Dan truly works! I have no energy to think about anything else, let alone ordering someone to kill."

"Whether it was your order or not, we will investigate. Please cooperate with our work now!"

Matsumoto Mina stepped back.

"I won’t go. I’m not a citizen of your Z country. You can’t arrest me without evidence!"

"Who says there’s no evidence?"

An Yan gestured for her to continue watching the television screen.

A real-time satellite map was displayed, with two red dots moving toward the hospital.

"After receiving your call, your people started moving. By the looks of it, they seem to be heading for this hospital. How about we all wait here and see what they intend to do at the hospital. By the way, we can also detain them and properly inquire about my father and elder brother’s affairs!"

The leading officer nodded and waved his hand. His subordinates immediately turned and went downstairs with their walkie-talkies.

Matsumoto Mina panicked. She reached for her phone, wanting to signal her subordinates to stop their action. But before she could grab her phone, someone had already twisted her arm.

On the television screen, the two red dots quickly moved to the hospital. The scene cut to the hospital’s internal surveillance. Their faces were clearly visible on camera.

Minutes later, they arrived at a single-patient room, where a late-stage sepsis patient was staying. They reached out and pulled out the patient’s tubes... Then, the police who rushed in caught them red-handed!

"This has nothing to do with me! I only asked them to find a patient for me; I never told them to pull out anyone’s tubes!"

Matsumoto Mina tried everything to clear her name. But unfortunately, no one believed her tall tales.

Officer Xiaohe personally handcuffed her.

"Save it for the police station."

As Matsumoto Mina was being subdued, An Yan had already stealthily switched the Revival Dan in her hand.

Watching Matsumoto Mina being taken away, An Yan didn’t pause for a moment and returned to her laboratory.

The Revival Dan Matsumoto Mina had also brought contained Li Tianyao’s blood! She wanted to know how long it had been since the blood had left Li Tianyao’s body. Was it from Gu Shifang’s stock, or had Li Tianyao fallen into someone else’s hands? Had someone started selling his blood?

After extracting the blood sample and dropping it into the instrument, An Yan commanded,

The instrument started immediately. Minutes later, the results were in.

The blood on the Revival Dan had left the body for about thirty days. This meant Matsumoto Mina had likely obtained Li Tianyao’s blood around the time she came to Luocheng to issue her challenges. It also suggested Li Tianyao was very likely in Matsumoto Mina’s hands!

An Yan unconsciously pursed her lips. Using Inner Strength, she manipulated the Spiritual Energy at her fingertips to extract the blood from the Revival Dan and transferred it to a nearby test tube.

While doing all this, the image of Li Tianyao lingered in her mind. He always liked to wear black. A stoic face with handsome features! But that was only towards others. In front of her, when it was just the two of them, he would smile, a smile hiding in his beautiful eyes, slowly spreading to the corners of his eyes, his mouth! He would steal a kiss from her when she least expected it. He would silently watch her while she was engrossed in reading or dealing with work. He always thought further ahead about her matters than she did, fearing any unforeseeable dangers might harm her. He protected her so carefully! But what about her? After he lost his sanity, when he was being controlled by others, she had been completely unaware! Guilt made An Yan wish she could tear Matsumoto Mina apart with her own hands. But she knew she couldn’t. At least, not before finding Li Tianyao!

Her fingers gently traced the distinct features of Li Tianyao in the photo frame.

"I will definitely find you!"

An Yan put the photo frame away carefully. She stood up, her gaze resolute.

"Once I find you... I will personally take Matsumoto Mina’s life! To avenge my father, and to avenge you!"

「At the police station.」

Matsumoto Mina’s two subordinates took all the blame. Even regarding An Zhongbo and An Yaoluo, they both claimed they had orchestrated it because they couldn’t stand An Yan stealing Matsumoto Mina’s spotlight at the event. When asked how they made An Yaoluo’s car lose control, they claimed they knew Spells. However, when asked to demonstrate, they couldn’t cast any Spell at all. Zhang Xuebin thus concluded that they were not the masterminds and detained Matsumoto Mina at the police station.
