I Hate You, Devil!

Chapter 302 Final Arc Part XX



Hearing a grunt coming from further in, Yu Chen quickly headed over. He soon found Zaki slouching and leaning on what seemed to be the leftover of the wall dividing the living area and kitchen.

The man had a bloody wound on his head and also his shirt was all wet with blood. But he was grinning at him and even managed a mock salute. Yu Chen did not know how bad the extent of his wounds were but was glad to see him still alive and kicking.

"You look like something the cat dragged in." In his relief, Yu Chen mocked Zaki who was never unkempt – ever.

"Uh huh… and you are a sight for sore eyes." Zaki had his eyes half closed but could still muster up a bright smile upon seeing Yu Chen. "Finally back, huh? Guess you and the missus had a gala time thanks to my advice?" and he wiggled his brows suggestively before wincing at the action as it pulled on the wound that One had put on his head.

"If you still are able to tease me like this, you should be fine!" Yu Chen saud, knowing that he truly owed it all to Zaki for the improvement between his and Xiaolei\'s relationship as husband and wife.

"By the way, did you see One?" Zaki turned serious and got back to the main issue.

"Yes. Rammed nicely into him. Army people are here, and they are dealing with him." Yu Chen replied flippantly, as though One did not matter. He and Sei had planned and timed things perfectly as after he had crashed into One, the army special forces arrived right on their heels.

Zaki raised a bloody brow at Yu Chen. "Oh…? Did you then?"

Yu Chen simply nodded as he put his arms around Zaki and helped him up, slowly making their way out of the wreck that was his house. "I should get you to pay for damages too." He muttered.

"…!!" Zaki sweat-dropped at that. "You would take it up with a severely injured patient like me?! Come on… you can\'t be so heartless, right?" and he proceeded to fake some coughs and groaned about how much he was in pain. Yu Chen huffed. But inwardly, he was thanking whatever gods there were for keeping this brother of his alive in this lifetime. Zaki did not notice how Yu Chen\'s eyes reddened a little as they made their way out.

...

In the sanatorium, Davi had gotten herself examined with the help of Dr. Yang, her lead research assistant to apply medication and wrap compression bandages for her. The rest of her team had brought Zaki over for a thorough examination as well, since he had been severely wounded from the fight with One. The other tank that had been unused was also currently being prepped to have him undergo another round of treatment if needed.

Davi had then gone to a room that was temporarily converted into the morgue and checked on Three to find out the cause of his death, which was unexpected.

"You found out the reason?" Sei, Yu Chen, and Ryou were there waiting for the results.

"Yes. Apparently, the angle Kir had shot the tranquilizer dart to his neck had perfectly pierced right through the foramina of the cervical vertebrae and hit his spinal cord. Though a superhuman, Three was already at the end stage of his illness and coupled with the extremely potent dose of my modified tranquilizer, it had caused a massive surge in drugs entering the brain. He literally had an overdose and had anoxic brain injury. Taking all that into account, it was either he would be left in a vegetative state or in his case – he died." Davi quickly explained, her tone professional and straight to the point.

"Well… I guess that was a good ending for him." Sei softly commented and everyone else nodded in agreement.

"What about Bro. Zaki?" Yu Chen was more worried for him.

"I have received the reports… and his condition is not bad. But neither is it good." Davi frowned as she rubbed her forehead. "He had his stomach and spleen pierced through and loss quite an amount of blood, almost going into hypovolemic shock. We have also removed the bullet that was stuck in his 5th rib. If not for his special constitution, he would have had multiple organ failures and died. But it has severely reversed the effectiveness of the treatment. To slow down the effects, we have put him back into his treatment tank and induced him into a coma. This is only temporary until we decide where to go from there. I\'ll also need to wait for Hinari to arrive as she would be able to decide on further treatment."

Davi\'s announcement on Zaki\'s update had everyone remaining silent, not knowing what to say. Sei\'s phone rang and he picked it up, as someone on the other side reported the other situation to him.

"Alright. I got it. We\'ll be there." Sei replied before ending the call. "Let\'s reconvene at the treatment area. Everyone else have gathered there."

...

At the treatment area…

"What is he doing here?!" Yu Chen snarled as he saw a bloodied person, thoroughly restrained, lying on a stretcher beside the treatment tanks.

The army special forces leader, Captain Murphy saluted Sei, and turned to Yu Chen saying, "We had restrained him and brought him over on Mr. Chen\'s orders. Dr. Yang and his team had run a quick check on him earlier and said that he has serious injuries and had fallen into a coma."

"Yes, we found that he has a hairline fracture on his skull, multiple broken ribs, fractured arms and even compound fractures on his legs." Dr. Yang had took over and continued explaining in detail about One\'s injuries. "He\'s currently hooked onto life support. But you all need to decide what next – provide treatment or remove life support." Her eyes looked meaningfully at Davi, Sei, Yu Chen, Xiaolei and Hinari.

"Oh…" Kir suddenly spoke up. "Seven has regained consciousness and had pleaded guilty. However, he has requested amnesty and treatment in exchange of his life given in service to Sei and Davi." Team leader Alpha quickly reported on matters that were his responsibility. "This matter needs deciding as well."

A heavy silence descended on the group of people there as they all were caught in their own thoughts. Some were thinking of granting second chances, some were highly opposed, and some were of just content to follow along with the general consensus. However, before anyone could say anything, Xiaolei fell to the ground unconscious, sending the entire situation into mild chaos, especially with Yu Chen panicking at his wife\'s sudden collapse.
