The girl’s sleeping face was very peaceful. Her skin was white and rosy, not at all pale and loose like a person who had been seriously ill for a long time.
It was obvious that she had been well taken care of.
Despite them making such a huge commotion, she was still asleep and had no intention of waking up.
When he walked to the bed, the strong smell of medicine was already so strong that it was almost tangible.
Luo Chen couldn’t take it anymore and held his breath for the time being. He gently lifted the girl’s blanket.
She was wearing very soft pajamas. The slight rise and fall of her chest meant that she was still alive at this moment. However, from her neck down, her ferocious greenish-gray blood vessels bulged. Her fair skin even looked like it was about to burst.
Luo Chen was shocked. Most importantly, he had seen similar situations more than once during this period of time!
The poison in Wang Meng’s body was like this as well. Even the appearance of Zhao Gang’s father-in-law was similar.
It was as if they were poisoned. And the reaction caused by each poison was different.
With such a situation appearing so frequently in such a short period of time, Luo Chen couldn’t help but suspect who the culprit was.
Moreover, the three poisoned people did not seem to be related. The only person who knew all three of them was probably Luo Chen himself.
He was the one who had come to save the three of them, so he felt that the development of the matter was a little strange.
“What are you looking at?”
At first, Wang Hu was still waiting patiently, but seeing that Luo Chen’s gaze was becoming more and more persistent, he finally couldn’t take it anymore and urged.
He really treated the girl as his daughter. No father could tolerate an unfamiliar man staring at his teenage daughter!
“Has she ever been anywhere? Try to recall back to six months or more.”
Luo Chen finally straightened his back and asked with a solemn expression.
“Do you think she looks like she can go out like this?”
Wang Hu emphasized his tone, already a little impatient.
He even suspected that Luo Chen might have other motives for coming to his house.
Killing intent filled the air again, causing the hair on Luo Chen’s back to stand on end.
He might not be able to do anything else, but in terms of sharp senses, Luo Chen had already obtained quite a lot of tempering.
“Don’t misunderstand. What I mean is that your daughter’s condition looks like she was poisoned.”
Luo Chen saw that Wang Hu had already clenched his fists. From the looks of it, if he said anything wrong, he would immediately attack.
If they fought in such a narrow room, Luo Chen felt that he might suffer a loss.
“Poisoned?”
Wang Hu was stunned for a moment before a thoughtful expression appeared in his eyes.
But soon, he slowly shook his head.
“I don’t think so. Her body has actually not been good since she was young, so I’m the one who accompanied her most of the time when she went out. She only eats and drinks things that I personally made for her. There’s no chance that she’s poisoned.”
With that, Wang Hu suddenly clenched his fists tightly, as if he had remembered something.
“What about that hospital?”
Luo Chen spoke indifferently.
However, when these words landed in Wang Hu’s ears, it was like a stormy sea!
This was because he also thought at the same time that if something really went wrong, the possibility of the medicine prescribed by the hospital would definitely be the greatest!
From a young age, his daughter had always been weak and sickly. In a month, she would stay in the hospital even longer than at home.
After a while, the doctors and nurses almost knew them.
And what followed was a huge expenditure.
This also meant that he could only accept more missions.
In the beginning, he was only a marginal figure in the organization.
It was not that there was no chance of promotion. It’s just that he was actually not very interested in this profession.
If not for the fact that he needed to earn a lot of money, he would not have been willing to continue sinking into the mud.
However, because of his daughter’s illness, he had no choice but to quickly increase his level so that he could accept better-paid missions.
In the end, while his status soared, it also meant that his relationship with the organization was becoming closer.
And this private clinic was recommended by his immediate superior two years ago.
At that time, because the first dose of medicine was indeed effective, in order to express his gratitude, he signed a five-year contract with the organization.
A certain guess made Wang Hu’s heart turn cold.
However, he was not prepared to tell Luo Chen this.
“Do you have the original prescription? Show me, not the kind of prescriptions that doctors write and you pick up directly from the pharmacy, but the ones where you have to gather the ingredients yourself according to the prescription.”
Luo Chen thought for a moment and tried to make his request.
Even if he could smell that there was something wrong with the medicine, there was no trust between the two of them. His empty words would definitely not be believed.
There had to be evidence to support it.
Wang Hu stared at Luo Chen for a while before turning around without a word and returning to take out the prescription.
It could be seen that this prescription had been kept for a long time, but it had been preserved very well. Other than the fact that the edges were a little yellow, the words were still clearly visible.
Luo Chen took it and realized that the effect of this medicine was probably to nourish one’s Qi and blood. Moreover, the medicinal effect was gentle. It could basically be considered a good prescription.
At the very least, it was enough to nourish the body.
“What about the most recent prescription?”
Luo Chen asked again.
This time, Wang Hu did not hesitate at all. He quickly brought the prescription over and even brought an unopened bag of medicine.
Last week, he went to the hospital to get new medicine for his daughter. Usually, it was prescribed for a month. After that, he could bring her for a follow-up checkup.
This time, because his daughter’s condition was really not good, the amount of medicine had increased a lot. There was still a large drawer of it left at home.
Luo Chen did not stand on ceremony. He opened the prescription and placed the medicine in front of him.
He would not have known if he had not taken a look. He was shocked. This prescription could be said to have nothing to do with medicinal ingredients!
But the person who prescribed the medicine was definitely an expert!
Although every herb was completely different from the one on the prescription, the advantage was that they looked almost the same!
If one was not proficient in this field, they would probably not be able to see the problem at all!
After all, many Chinese medicines looked very similar to each other. If one deliberately found some similar-looking ones to replace them, the possibility of being discovered was minimal.
For example, even though Wang Hu was such a cautious person and was especially concerned about his daughter’s matters, he still did not notice any clues.
“This…”
Luo Chen picked up a piece of herb that looked like cinnamon. For a moment, he didn’t know what to say.
After thinking about it, Luo Chen still explained his discovery clearly.
After all, this was the real reason why Wang Hu’s daughter was bedridden.
“You mean… these herbs are completely useless?”
Wang Hu’s breathing subconsciously quickened..
