"At the city's central hospital?"

This sudden news made Chen Gang's heart leap into his throat.

His fingers tightened around the phone, and without any hesitation, he loudly issued the latest instructions into the communicator.

Chen Gang's voice echoed in the narrow alley.

Good news, everyone!

He told everyone what had happened.

Fortunately, the area they are currently investigating is not far from the city's central hospital.

In less than ten minutes, several cars came to a steady stop in front of the emergency department building of the city's central hospital, accompanied by the screeching of brakes.

Chen Gang pushed open the car door and was the first to rush out, leading several of his men into the hospital's emergency room.

The emergency room was filled with the strong smell of disinfectant, and medical staff were busy moving around in the corridor.

Chen Gang arrived at the nurses' station, showed his identification, quickly inquired about the situation, and then, guided by a nurse, hurriedly crossed the corridor and pushed open the door to the intensive care unit.

The emergency room was quiet, with only the monotonous ticking of medical equipment.

On the hospital bed in the center of the emergency room, Chen Gang finally met his good brother Xin Yongren, whom he had been longing for and had completely lost contact with.

Xin Yongren looked extremely miserable at this moment. He was wearing a large hospital gown, his face was deathly pale, his lips were bluish-purple from lack of oxygen, and he was connected to various monitors.

Several IV bags were hanging nearby, and the clear medicine was dripping into his veins through the drip tubes.

When the police entered, the attending physician in charge of the emergency treatment stepped forward and briefly explained the resuscitation process. The doctor stated that the person's condition was extremely poor upon arrival, exhibiting severe central nervous system depression.

The hospital immediately organized a consultation with experts. After an extremely urgent gastric lavage, the toxins that had not yet been fully absorbed from his stomach were removed. He was also given a large dose of naloxone and other effective antidotes intravenously.

It's important to understand that this is a standard, albeit extreme, medical procedure for central nervous system depression caused by ingesting large amounts of drugs. While such a high dose of the antagonist can pull a person back from the brink of death, the impact on the body is also extremely significant.

Fortunately, this extreme rescue method worked.

After this thrilling rescue, undercover agent Xin Yongren's vital signs finally stabilized from the brink of sudden death, and the heart rate waveform on the monitor became regular.

After listening to the doctor's report, Chen Gang let out a long sigh of relief, feeling as if the huge rock pressing on his chest had finally been removed.

Just then, a very faint cough came from the hospital bed.

Xin Yongren's heavy eyelids twitched slightly a few times, and then he slowly opened his eyes, waking up from a deep coma.

Seeing this, Chen Gang, the captain of the anti-drug squad, could no longer control his emotions. Seeing that the other person was finally out of danger, he excitedly rushed to the bedside, stretched out his rough hands, and tightly grasped Xin Yongren's cold hands, which still had needles in them.

This tough and resolute man had tears in his eyes at that moment.

"Yongren!" Chen Gang's voice choked with emotion. He anxiously inquired, "You're finally awake! How are you feeling? Is anything particularly uncomfortable?"

Xin Yongren, lying on his hospital bed, had just emerged from a deep coma. His eyes were still somewhat unfocused, and his consciousness was hazy. He stared blankly at the light from the incandescent bulb on the ceiling until Chen Gang's familiar voice came through. The voice was like a ray of light piercing through the thick fog, making his sluggish brain start to function again.

Gradually, as consciousness returned, his mind flashed back to what had happened before: he remembered how he had used his last breath to go to the police station for help, he remembered the police station lobby, and he remembered that extremely absurd suggestion.

The moment the thought crossed his mind, Xin Yongren's body trembled violently, and anxiety instantly welled up in his previously weak eyes.

He struggled to lift his head, not daring to delay for even the slightest moment; he had to tell Captain Chen about that utterly outrageous incident. If he was too late, the consequences would be unimaginable.

"Captain Chen... Captain Chen..."

Xin Yongren grabbed Chen Gang's wrist with his backhand and quickly explained the situation in an extremely weak voice, like a leaky bellows.

He gasped for breath, first recounting how he was forcibly fed after his identity was exposed, and how he risked his life to jump into the river to escape. Then he cut to the core intelligence: how he had gone to great lengths to obtain Zhao Zhihai's extremely secretive private number.

"I...I escaped to a police station..." Xin Yongren's chest heaved violently. "I met a...young policeman..."

He emphasized that he encountered an extremely "strange" young policeman in that police station, namely Li Mo'an.

At this point, Xin Yongren's eyes became extremely anxious, and his voice even became hoarse: "Captain Chen! That young policeman, he completely misunderstood what I meant!"

Xin Yongren swallowed hard, his Adam's apple bobbing up and down with difficulty.

"He actually thought... I wanted him to use that number... to call that drug dealer Zhao Zhihai and lure him out! And then... to wipe them all out!"

After saying this, Xin Yongren coughed violently.

To be honest, when he first heard about that plan, he was speechless. Of course, he hadn't thought of it that way! He just felt that Zhao Zhihai's private number was an extremely important clue, and as long as he handed it over to the police, letting the city bureau's technical investigation department locate it and follow the trail, that would be enough.

Who in this world would think of calling someone to arrange a fight?! How does their brain work like that?!

Upon hearing the undercover agent's fragmented yet earth-shattering accusations, the expressions of Chen Gang, the anti-drug captain standing by the hospital bed, and Lao Zhang and others from the city center police station who had rushed over, changed instantly.

The emergency room fell silent; everyone was stunned by this outrageous plan.

Calling a ruthless drug lord to arrange a meeting? This is like something out of a fantasy drama.

Chen Gang's brows furrowed tightly, but then he turned and exchanged a glance with Old Zhang beside him, and both of them shook their heads inwardly.

"How is this possible?" The thought crossed his mind.

Chen Gang let out a long breath, thinking that this shouldn't be the case.

This must have been some kind of auditory hallucination or misunderstanding caused by Xin Yongren's extreme weakness and the effects of drugs. After all, the police system has strict discipline and case-handling procedures, and even a newly recruited trainee police officer would definitely understand the most basic difference in strength between the enemy and ourselves.

What kind of police officer would be so unscrupulous? What kind of police officer would actually take out their phone and call a big-time drug lord whose henchmen have guns and knives to arrange a fight?

This is so illogical, it's like a rabbit calling a tiger to invite it out for a casual meal – utterly absurd.

Chen Gang reached out and patted Xin Yongren on the shoulder, preparing to comfort his comrade who was in a state of shock, and tell him that such a ridiculous thing could never happen.
