Quick time travel: The system wants me to save the sick girl

"Although the symptoms of these people vary, they all developed abnormalities after receiving treatment." Lu Yan pointed at the report on the screen and said, "So there is something wrong with this hospital itself."

"That's right." Zhou Muchi nodded. "The chip can control people, so it needs a place to execute this command. We haven't had any clues pointing to this location before."

"I guess we just overlooked it."

"We need to investigate further," Lu Yan said, opening another file. "Here are some patient information. I suspect they have also been implanted with chips. From some details, I can see that they have gradually developed symptoms after the implantation of the chip."

"Maybe we can control them before they cause any problems, which may reduce some casualties and save more people."

The two looked at each other and decided to start with these patients to find more evidence.

"These materials also need to be verified. I will compile a list of personnel and you go find them." There are many people receiving the same treatment, and if they want to verify it, Zhou Muchi needs to do it.

Lu Yan's computer hasn't rested for a long time, just like him. Only by seizing the time can he avoid more bad things from happening.

He knew that the only thing he could do now was to do his best to buy enough time for Zhou Muchi. Because only in this way could Zhou Muchi find Lin Yizhou as quickly as possible, successfully resolve this difficult matter, and save more innocent lives.

At this moment, the computer he was holding tightly in his hand had begun to get slightly hot, but Lu Yan did not relax at all.

He focused on the data and information on the screen, constantly trying to find clues and breakthroughs.

The long hours of intense work made him feel a little tired, but he still persisted, hoping to complete the task as soon as possible.

When Lu Yan felt that he could no longer go on, he sighed softly and slowly closed the computer.

He stood up, stretched his body, and tried to relieve his fatigue. Then he walked out of the room with heavy steps.

He hadn't smoked for so long that he almost forgot the taste of tobacco.

Only when he is under great mental pressure does he need nicotine to relieve his stress.

He pulled a cigarette from his pocket and held it lightly between his fingers.

Then he slowly took out a lighter and opened it skillfully. The familiar "click" sound made him breathe a sigh of relief.

He held the flame with his hand, brought the cigarette close to the flame, and took a deep puff.

The smoke spread, blurring his vision, but also making him feel an unprecedented sense of relaxation and comfort. He exhaled a cloud of white mist and watched it slowly dissipate in the air, as if time was passing with the smoke.

"Are you in a bad mood?" Zhou Muchi's voice came.

Lu Yan turned and looked at him.

In Zhou Muchi's eyes, Lu Yan looked lazy and unruly when smoking, like a lonely painting.

Zhou Muchi looked at Lu Yan quietly, with a complex emotion in his heart. The Lu Yan he knew was always calm and self-controlled, and a little bit naughty. Even when facing great pressure, he rarely showed such fatigue.

At this moment, Lu Yan seemed to have let down all his defenses, showing his most vulnerable side.

Zhou Muchi realized that the man in front of him was not as indestructible as he seemed.

He walked forward, patted Lu Yan's shoulder gently, and said firmly: "We will definitely find a solution."

Lu Yan looked up at Zhou Muchi, a hint of gratitude flashing in his eyes.

He took a deep drag on the cigarette and then slowly exhaled, the smoke swirling between them.

"I believe you." Lu Yan said.

……

The lights in the office were on for a long time and were not turned off until dawn.

Lu Yan found Zhou Muchi with the computer and said, "Look, there's a clue."

Zhou Muchi perked up and came over to watch together.

"I followed their tracks and found this location." Lu Yan looked at him excitedly. "This is a private clinic."

Zhou Muchi looked at Lu Yan and asked, "You mean the hospital we found last night?"

"Yes, that hospital is a cover. I discovered this because there are several homeless people on the list. They don't have the money to go to a regular hospital for treatment. At the same time, it's impossible for a regular hospital to have people from different classes get into trouble at the same time."

"Besides, the medicine at this private clinic is cheap, so people nearby go there when they're sick. I also heard that the owner of this clinic is kind and always helps the homeless people nearby."

“That also explains why a number of homeless people are also under control on our personnel list.”

"That's great." Zhou Muchi stood up. "I'll immediately arrange for someone to investigate."

"Wait." Lu Yan held his hand. "Be careful. They must know we are investigating this matter. Don't be too blatant when you go."

"Also check the surrounding hospitals to avoid alerting the suspects."

"Do not worry."

Seeing Zhou Muchi running away, Lu Yan finally relaxed and slumped in his chair. "Finally, there's some progress."

When I relaxed, I realized that I hadn't eaten or drunk water for a long time.

He picked up the paper cup next to him and drank the water.

I plan to get up and go out to find something to eat.

Early in the morning, there was already a stall outside selling breakfast. Lu Yan walked over, ordered some food, and sat down on the small stool provided nearby.

They had not slept all night, and now as the dawn broke, the streets were empty, like a sleeping deserted city.

Lu Yan took the soy milk and said softly, "Thank you."

However, he had just taken two sips when the system exploded in his mind like thunder: "Host, be careful!!"

Perhaps because he hadn't slept all night, Lu Yan's reaction was a little slower than usual.

At this split second, Lu Yan felt a sharp pain in his head, as if he was hit by a sledgehammer. He fell backwards like a puppet with its strings cut.

Lu Yan's consciousness gradually became blurred. In a trance, he saw a black shadow approaching rapidly. He inhaled a pungent smell through his mouth and nose, and fainted completely.
