Even hybrid monsters have their day

These two qualities alone are enough to tell that these are two completely different people.

But how could there be people in this world who look so alike? Overwhelmed with shock, he momentarily looked at the woman in front of him, who had just called him by name.

"Are you really not Lu Bing?" he asked again, still unwilling to give up. When she nodded, he added, "I'm sorry, you look just too much like a friend of mine."

“It’s okay, then your friend…” Geng Miaowan saw the astonishment on his face. How similar must the two people be for him to show such an expression?

“She… just had a car accident…” Qiu Pi thought of Lu Bing lying in a pool of blood. How could he know that this woman was Lu Bing? Lu Bing had just been lying lifeless in a pool of blood, and he was the one who pushed her out.

Geng Miaowan saw the sadness in his eyes and said softly, "I'm sorry."

Qiu Pi shook his head, his face bearing a smile that looked more like a grimace than tears. He then turned away and muttered, "I need to go to the hospital to see her!"

As he spoke, he flagged down a car, jumped in quickly, and the car drove off, disappearing rapidly into the night.

Geng Miaowan turned to look at Luan Hao and Xu Ruwen, "I think we should go and take a look."

Xu Ruwen: "Do you think this mission is related to him?"

She raised an eyebrow and retorted, "Which mission wasn't related to them?"

Xu Ruwen thought for a moment, and indeed couldn't recall a single instance where Qiu Pi had appeared but was unrelated to the mission. "But what exactly does 'breaking the eternal barrier' mean?"

Find the weakness in the Eternal City, break the eternal seal, and restore the city to its original state.

Thinking about the baffling explanations in the mission, Xu Ruwen felt a headache coming on. Why were these missions all so strange...?

“Perhaps the answer lies in looking back.” She turned to Luan Hao. “What do you think?”

Luan Hao glanced at her indifferently. His expression was noncommittal, but Geng Miaowan saw a tacit approval in that glance. Well, that was just her wishful thinking, because the next second, his figure flashed and disappeared into thin air.

Without Luan Hao, Geng Miaowan instantly felt like she was in charge. She had Xu Ruwen hail a taxi, and the two of them, along with their dog, got in and headed straight for the hospital.

The hospital is a busy place all year round, and even on nights like this, it is still bustling with people coming and going, with people standing everywhere waiting.

As soon as Geng Miaowan entered the hospital, she ran to the service desk. "Hello, I'd like to ask, where is the woman who was in a car accident who was brought in earlier?"

The nurse at the information desk, without even looking up, said, "Emergency room. She was just brought in, so she's probably still being resuscitated."

"Thank you!" After saying that, she went to the emergency room.

Xu Ruwen and Huangfu Aohan followed silently behind her.

Outside the operating room, Qiu Pi sat on a waiting chair, his face filled with sorrow. At the door, a tall man in a dark suit anxiously peered into the operating room. Although the door was closed and he couldn't see anything, he continued to repeat the action.

Geng Miaowan felt that the person must be the man who had initially gotten into the ambulance.

Seeing her appearance, Qiu Pi was somewhat surprised, "Why are you here?"

"I..." Geng Miaowan paused for a moment, then said, "My friend is feeling unwell and is receiving medical treatment over there. I remembered you mentioned your friend was also taken to the hospital, so I came to check on her. How is she now?"

Xu Ruwen and Huangfu Aohan expressed their utmost admiration for Geng Miaowan's ability to lie without batting an eye, and silently vowed to be more careful when listening to her in the future.

Her words flowed smoothly and logically, and Qiu Pi didn't detect anything amiss. He turned his head and saw that the man who had been holding her was no longer beside her, so he believed her.

"The person is still being rescued." Although he believed her, he still had a slight doubt in his heart about why she would make a special trip to see someone he had just met on the street.

Hearing the conversation, the man who had been standing at the door of the emergency room turned around and looked at them, as if accusing them of disturbing him. However, when he saw the woman standing next to Qiu Pi, his expression clearly froze for a moment, and a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes, but it quickly vanished like fireworks.

He paused for a moment, then turned his head back.

This person looks very much like Lu Bing; at first glance, they are almost identical. However, he is someone who has spent seven years with Lu Bing, and it is immediately obvious that this person is definitely not Lu Bing.

Xu Ruwen's voice echoed in Geng Miaowan's mind, "Peng Yuxian's eyesight is much better than Qiu Pi's." At the same time, he was also a little curious about just how much the person in the operating room resembled Geng Miaowan.

Geng Miaowan was taken aback for a moment, not expecting the person to be Peng Yuxian. However, she quickly recovered and even felt she had found a breakthrough. Based on her past mission experience, wherever Peng Yuxian and Qiu Pi appeared, the mission was definitely not far away.

Geng Miaowan sat down on the other chair. Qiu Pi looked up at her, then lowered his head again, no longer looking at her.

A moment later, the door to the emergency room opened, and the doctor emerged, looking exhausted. Peng Yuxian rushed forward, grabbed the doctor's arm, and asked, "Doctor, how is she? How is she?"

Qiu Pi also stood up and walked towards the door of the emergency room.

The doctor shook his head and said the words that those waiting outside the operating room dreaded most: "We've done everything we could."

Those few simple words seemed to drain all the strength from Peng Yuxian's body. He swayed in a daze and shouted at the doctor, "No, no, there must be a way, there must be other ways, doctor, please help me, please think of something, there must be other ways."

“Sir, please calm down,” several people who came out from behind saw Peng Yuxian shaking the doctor and quickly stepped forward to separate them. “We really have done our best.”

At that moment, the operating cart was pushed out from inside.

"Bing'er, Bing'er!" Peng Yuxian saw the woman lying on the bed and rushed over, bending down to call out to her.

"Ice!" Qiu Pi stood on the other side of the bed. His hand twitched, but he didn't reach out. (To be continued.)
