Before long, the car arrived at the hospital.

Qi Tongwei asked Luo Fei to go ahead first, while he stayed back to wait.

However, since Luo Fei didn't know when he would be able to return, he told Qi Tongwei not to bother and to take the car back to the bureau and asked for the hotel's address so he could take a cab later.

This sort of thing shouldn't trouble the other party.

"See you tomorrow, Fei Ge."

"Alright, see you tomorrow."

After parting ways, Luo Fei hurried to the inpatient department, with only the girl on his mind.

Following the location given by Xiaoqi, he arrived outside the ward and, through the door's glass, saw Yang Mei lying inside, with Wu Xiaoyue sitting beside her.

It seemed like Wu Xiaoyue was accompanying her, but Luo Fei found the scene somewhat strange.

Yang Mei, lying on the bed, seemed uninjured, but why did Wu Xiaoyue have her head wrapped in bandages and her arm in a cast? She seemed seriously injured.

Luo Fei slowly opened the door and walked in from the back.

Wu Xiaoyue sensed someone coming, thinking it was the nurse checking the room, but as soon as she turned around, she saw Luo Fei.

"Luo..."

"Shh!"

Luo Fei made a gesture for silence, and Wu Xiaoyue nodded in understanding, leading Luo Fei outside to talk.

"Why are you here?"

Clearly, Wu Xiaoyue was very shocked by Luo Fei's appearance; she hadn't expected him to show up so quickly and thought he had come specially to Binhai.

Luo Fei explained how they were transferred here to investigate the case and assist the Binhai police in operations.

Wu Xiaoyue nodded upon hearing this.

"I see... Yang Mei's condition is hard to describe. Though she's not seriously injured, her heart rate and pulse are normal, she remains unconscious due to the blast aftermath."

"Your injuries seem more severe."

Luo Fei glanced at her, assessing the injuries.

Wu Xiaoyue, bandaged and in a cast, sighed.

"I banged myself up pretty badly, but not that seriously. The incident was quite alarming, but luckily Yang Mei protected me. Everything was so chaotic then, and I didn't react in time."

"Tell me, what was the scene like?"

At this moment, Luo Fei was very calm.

His woman was inside, but he needed to seize the time. Wu Xiaoyue, being a person involved, must know the details of the scene best.

"Ah? Let me think..."

"We were just strolling on the pedestrian street without any trouble, but suddenly a commotion from a shop caught our attention."

"It was a watch counter selling luxury men's watches, all limited editions, so they were expensive. The argument broke out at the store entrance, and when we arrived, we found out it was because someone used counterfeit money."

"Counterfeit money?"

Luo Fei was momentarily puzzled.

He hadn't expected such a scenario; these days, there's not much need for cash. Using a counterfeit bill might not be intentional but a misunderstanding.

"Was there a lot?"

"A lot!"

Wu Xiaoyue nodded solemnly.

"Yang Mei and I asked around, thinking it was just one or two notes, exaggerations, but it turned out to be a stack of thirty thousand in counterfeit bills."

Luo Fei was dumbfounded by this.

This was overly outrageous!

Who uses counterfeit bills so boldly, spending thirty thousand just like that? If it were a usual one or two bills, it might have been a mistake or an accidental occurrence, understandable if corrected promptly.

But taking out thirty thousand at once—that's premeditated.

"And then?"

"The shopkeeper was highly suspicious. He had the staff verify, brought out a counterfeit detector, and rigorously checked, only discovering something was off after a long while."

The man with the counterfeit cash tried to leave, complaining he wouldn't buy anything and wanted his money back, but the shopkeeper refused, trying to drag him to the Public Security Bureau, shouting about calling the police."

At this point, a mental picture began forming in Luo Fei's mind.

Bringing counterfeit money into a busy area, trying to spend it, inadvertently alarming the public, and in an attempt to escape, pulling out a gun!

When things escalated, resorting to a hand grenade, not expecting to injure himself gravely.

The information burst was massive!

"Go on."

Luo Fei needed a complete understanding to conduct the investigation efficiently and swiftly.

"Some security guards from the pedestrian street came to intervene, but as soon as they approached, the man fired a gun on the street, scaring many people. Despite people avoiding him, he found it difficult to get out because of the crowd."

"When some guards closed in to subdue him, he suddenly pulled out a hand grenade, seemingly trying to threaten everyone back, but before the guards could react, he pulled the pin and threw it forward."

Wu Xiaoyue shivered, recalling the explosion's flames.

By this point, Luo Fan's expression became dark and icy.

Such an atrocious villain, utterly unforgivable!

That he dared to commit such a heinous act in a crowded place.

He had an understanding of a grenade's destructive power.

With so many onlookers, injuring over a hundred would still be a mercy.

"My first instinct was fear, wanting to dodge, but Yang Mei pulled back pedestrians beside her, trying to protect them."
