In a villa somewhere in the city, a woman’s voice rang out.

“What?! You’re saying He Yu has the blood toxin?” Lü Zhishu gaped in astonishment at the person before her, only managing to digest the information after great effort. “Executive Duan, surely you’re joking…”

Duan-laoban flipped a page of his newspaper. “Executive Lü ought to be very happy to have a son like that.”

Lü Zhishu dragged the red nails of her stubby fingers through her hair, her eyes filled with shock. She muttered to herself for a while before she looked up and said to the man in front of her, “As…as Number Four, the organization has always considered him defective goods. These past few years, I’ve raised him just like an ordinary patient; I never thought that he would have a disease-linked ability, nor…nor have any of you found him valuable as a potential research subject…”

Duan-laoban smiled. “Then it’s clear that it’s only natural for humans to make mistakes.”

She didn’t reply.

“During the investigation into the patients escaping from Cheng Kang Psychiatric Hospital, it was discovered that both He Yu and Xie Qingcheng went back into the burning building,” he said. “After they reentered, a lot of patients were rescued at an unusually fast rate. They told the police it was because some of the doors didn’t have padlocks and were only bolted from the outside—that explanation might be able to convince the police, but it’s not enough to convince either one of us.”

Duan-laoban took a sip of his strongly brewed pu’er tea and said languidly to Lü Zhishu, “However, Executive Lü need not worry—since He Yu is your son, he’s one of ours.”

Lü Zhishu’s eyes lost focus as she shook her head. “No, with his personality, I’m afraid he wouldn’t…”

“A person’s heart is made of flesh, and blood is thicker than water. Even if he doesn’t yet, he’ll be standing on our side sooner or later. What kind of son would disobey his mother?” Duan-laoban gave her a smile that didn’t reach his eyes.

Lü Zhishu said nothing. The aged pu’er tea was sweet and rich on the tongue. Duan-laoban took another sip.

Lü Zhishu said, “Executive Duan, when it comes to this matter, I can’t guarantee you anything. If he really does have blood toxin, he’s never mentioned it to us before…”

Executive Duan laughed out loud.

“Executive Lü, could that just be because you’re too biased? Even I know that you and your Lao-He don’t spend much time with your elder son at all. Of course he’s going to be distant from you two. But after what happened with the broadcasting tower, I think he might not be such an indifferent person after all—that Doctor Xie fellow you hired for him merely accompanied him for a brief period and showed him a bit of respect, yet that was enough for him to go to such lengths for him.”

At the mention of this, Lü Zhishu became unexpectedly indignant. “If that bullet had hit him somewhere vital, then…”

“Don’t you have He Li too? Surely
