169: Black Box—Playback

After the Soldiers scattered, Liu Yan also began to clear out the nearby Hafke and Asara Soldiers.

Since his arrival, Liu Yan had not used the Space Cannon once.

He didn't know the situation of the Soldiers.

But he knew the Soldiers' attitude towards orders.

Unless absolutely necessary, Liu Yan would not use it.

Otherwise, if the Soldiers were hiding somewhere and heard the firing, they might impulsively fire a burst towards the black hole.

Wouldn't that directly expose their position?

"Wait... here..." Liu Yan stopped.

Sunshine Neurology Hospital.

At this moment, half of Sunshine Neurology Hospital had disappeared, replaced by the edge of Longbow Stream Valley.

Dududu ————!!

Dudu ————!!

Clatter clatter clatter ————!!!

Liu Yan easily dealt with the Soldiers near the hospital.

There weren't many Soldiers here compared to other streets.

Passing the security booth at the hospital entrance, Liu Yan saw several security guards lying on the ground, covered in blood.

Not far away, lay the bodies of 7 fully armed operatives, one of whom had just died and was still faintly twitching.

"You've worked hard." Liu Yan silently nodded in their direction, showing respect and recognition.

Inside the hospital, there must have been many family members and patients.

Family members were fine, at least they had a chance to run, but patients... Bang bang bang ————!!!

"Ah ————!"

Liu Yan was startled and looked up towards the hospital interior.

Gunshots and shouts were coming from inside.

Liu Yan quickly rushed into Sunshine Neurology Hospital.

Inside the hospital, it was equally chaotic, with blood staining the hospital corridors.

The usual unpleasant smell of disinfectant had now turned into a strong smell of blood.

Mixed in was the smell of gunpowder, which Liu Yan had long grown accustomed to.

Three Hafke Soldiers were constantly kicking a door with force.

From the door's reaction, it was clear that it was blocked from the inside.

Was someone inside?

Dududu ————!!

Dudu ————!!

Killing three Soldiers was as easy as moving a finger for Liu Yan.

But for the medical staff, patients, and family members in the hospital, those Soldiers were insurmountable mountains.

The failure of technology meant that before they died, they couldn't even make a last call to their loved ones.

"Come out, it's safe now," Liu Yan called out to the door.

After a long while, there was no response from inside.

Bang bang bang —-

Liu Yan heard heartbeats from inside, and whimpers caused by tension.

Clearly, the people inside were terrified.

"The Authorities will come for rescue soon, don't hide when they arrive."

Liu Yan sighed and no longer bothered with the people inside.

After inspecting the hospital, Liu Yan witnessed countless heartbreaking scenes.

A man about Fuji's age was slumped over an elderly person on a hospital bed, his upper body on top of theirs.

On his back were several crimson bullet holes.

In another ward, it was impossible to tell whose limbs belonged to whom.

The entire ward had been blown through, revealing the outside scene.

It had clearly been bombed by a blue eagle helicopter.

In the dilapidated hospital corridor, Liu Yan saw a familiar face.

It was the Female Nurse he had seen when he went to find Dr. Zhao.

She was now sitting in a corner, clutching a vepr submachine gun, looking around nervously.

In front of her lay the body of a Hafke Soldier.

Hearing Liu Yan's footsteps, her face turned pale, and she immediately raised her gun, aiming it at Liu Yan.

The Female Nurse saw Liu Yan and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

The repeated tension and relaxation of her emotions had pushed the Female Nurse to the brink of collapse.

"Why didn't you hide?"

"Why didn't you hide?"

Both spoke in unison.

Liu Yan was momentarily stunned, then answered first:

"I don't need to hide."

The Female Nurse glanced at the ICU ward beside her.

"I couldn't hide.."

Liu Yan looked puzzled and reached out to push open the ICU ward door.

The scene inside the ICU almost made Liu Yan drop his gun.

If he didn't look back at the corridor, Liu Yan would have even thought that the 'arrival' hadn't happened at all.

The patients inside lay quietly in their beds, while the nurses calmly checked various vital signs and changed IV drips.

Liu Yan looked incredulously at the Female Nurse at the door.

"You stayed because of them?"

The Female Nurse sat curled up against the wall, and when she heard Liu Yan's question, she silently nodded, two lines of wronged tears streaming down her cheeks.

Liu Yan couldn't imagine how desperate the Female Nurse must have felt facing those Soldiers.

But she still chose to guard the door.

Even if he hadn't taken his mother out of the hospital, when the 'arrival' happened, someone would still step forward to protect her.

The transparent glass orb in Liu Yan's quantum storage once again gained a hint of color.

"It will be safe here very soon." Liu Yan bent down and placed a hand on the Female Nurse's shoulder.

Liu Yan left her some special items.

It would be too unfair if such a person were to die in the war.

After settling the Female Nurse, Liu Yan continued to patrol this half of the hospital, killing all the Soldiers in some of the wards.

When he finished clearing the last ward, Liu Yan noticed a bed.

On hospital beds, at the very bottom, the patient's name would be written, and the patient would also wear a wristband.

"Tu Ming..."

When he saw this name, Liu Yan's brows furrowed slightly.

This name left a deep impression on him.

Liu Yan had donated money to him.

The person's surname was too unusual, and Liu Yan remembered it immediately.

Now, the person should already be dead.

After clearing the hospital, because of Tu Ming, Liu Yan remembered that the morgue hadn't been checked.

After all, the morgue would also have staff and would face attacks from Soldiers.

But the morgue seemed beyond saving; bodies in work clothes lay across the aisle, making it difficult for Liu Yan to step.

Clatter ————!!!

After stepping over the bodies, Liu Yan entered the morgue.

"Huh?"

Liu Yan's eyebrows instantly knitted together.

The scene inside the morgue was beyond his comprehension.

The bodies, all gone.

All the sliding drawers for storing bodies were pulled out.

The bodies inside had also disappeared, leaving only the cold air from the cabinets continuously spreading outwards.

In this situation, who would come to move bodies? What for?

Liu Yan rummaged through his quantum storage for a long time and finally found an item he hadn't used much.

The black box.

Liu Yan placed the black box on the ground.

After the black box was activated, everything that happened here appeared before Liu Yan in the form of a holographic playback.

The cold air in the morgue and the images Liu Yan saw made the hairs on his entire body stand on end.

In the footage.

The bodies pushed open their drawers themselves.

And left the morgue.
