Steam Era: The Lord of 'Puluo' Chapter 1399 635: When Did It Happen? (Part 6)
Previously on Steam Era: The Lord of 'Puluo'...
Thinking about this matter, Boss Lu forced a bitter smile: "This incident is strange, and this battle was fought poorly, hesitantly, and timidly. I'm worried that he'll cause trouble in the Outside Provinces, making it impossible for me to run my business, and also concerned that he might go to Puluo State and ruin my other ventures.
After considering the situation, what if he really went to Puluo State? If he entered my bookstore in Puluo, he would never come out alive. But the things used in the bookstore are too few, not even a few decent calligraphy and paintings. I wanted to write a few more characters and buy some more things, but ended up buying the wrong items and fought a chaotic battle."
At this point, Boss Lu took out a Magic Box: "This was sold to me by the Hundred Demons Workshop. If you also have items from them, destroy them immediately, they are all harmful!"
Boss Lu lightly tapped the box with a pen, and the box instantly turned into powder.
He took out several books sold by the Hundred Demons Workshop from the counter, swept the pen across the books, turning them all into ash.
After cleaning up, Boss Lu advised Li Banfeng: "Xiao Qianshou is an Ancestor Master. Even though his situation is not as it used to be, his identity and methods are still extraordinary,
He is willing to work for the Hundred Demons Workshop, and I really can't figure out the reason behind it. There must be a great hidden truth in this, and last night's setup was just like when the Inner State was at war, so be very careful."
Leaving the bookstore, Li Banfeng immediately called Tang Changfa: "Destroy everything bought from the Hundred Demons Workshop."
After hanging up, Light Bulb called again: "Seventh Master, Chuuni's surgery is complete."
"How is the situation?"
"It's...okay..."
"How is it really?"
"He's still alive, but I can't really say. Why don't you come and see?"
Li Banfeng went to the hospital, where Chuuni was still in critical condition in the intensive care unit. Preserved Fruit was crying with reddened eyes, and Light Bulb greeted him, helping Li Banfeng put on a sterile gown to enter the unit.
"Brother, Bureau Chief Li is here," Light Bulb whispered in Chuuni's ear.
Under the doctor's guidance, Chuuni's right index finger moved slightly.
Li Banfeng let out a breath, asking the doctor: "When can he recover?"
The doctor replied: "This might be his best condition in the coming period of time."
Li Banfeng was stunned for a moment, then asked: "How long is that period of time?"
The doctor shook his head: "It's uncertain."
"You just mentioned the best condition, what do you mean?"
"He can respond to external stimuli."
Responding to stimuli meant moving his index finger.
Li Banfeng looked at the doctor, asking: "Is that all?"
The doctor seemed a bit nervous: "We have done our utmost."
"Is that all?"
"His injuries are very severe."
"Is that all?"
"We'll have to see how recovery goes..." The doctor didn't dare to speak further.
Light Bulb calmed Li Banfeng, and they left the intensive care unit.
How could this be?
Chuuni could at least talk before, how could things turn out like this?
This wasn't the doctor's fault, they're only capable of this much.
Li Banfeng said: "I'll try to contact Kang Zhenchang later, you all wait for me now."
Just as he left the hospital, Li Banfeng received a call from his secretary Liu Ning: "Director Li, we've contacted the superior leaders, and they haven't seen Director Shen!"
"What do you mean 'haven't seen'?"
"Director Shen said he went to report work, but the superior leaders haven't..."
Li Banfeng hung up the phone, returned to the Dark Star Bureau, and called in Secretary Liu Ning: "Contact all the superior leaders, whether you know them or not, familiar or unfamiliar, call them one by one and say it's at my request!"
Liu Ning nodded, walked to the door, then came back: "Director Li, before Director Shen left, he assigned tasks separately to me, Director Gu and Chief Song. We don't know each other's task contents, but after you arrived, both Chief Song and I have reported our tasks, but Director Gu hasn't reported anything to you, I'm a bit worried..."
"Director Gu? The Director Gu from the Communications Department? Call him to meet me immediately!"
Liu Ning returned shortly: "Director Gu isn't in his office, and his phone can't be reached."
"Arrest him immediately!" Li Banfeng's veins were pulsating, he dialed Shen Jingye's number but it still went unanswered.
An hour later, Dumpling entered the office and said to Li Banfeng: "Seventh Master, we've found Director Shen."
"Where is he?"
"We've found Director Shen's corpse..."
"When did this happen?"
"Just now, during a vehicle inspection in the parking lot..."
"When did this happen?"
"Just now, in the trunk of a government vehicle..."
"When did this happen?"
Dumpling didn't dare to speak further.
"When did this happen?"
Li Banfeng's eyes were blood-red, as he covered his mouth with both hands.
