Le Cheng raised his head and calmly looked at him.
Louis took a few deep breaths before he realized his behavior was overly distraught, hastily pulling over a chair to sit down again, but his eyes still reflected a hint of lingering fear... Just a na had caused such a reaction from Louis, clearly, Saint Elizabeth ntal Hospital was not as simple as it appeared on the surface.
"Mr. Le Cheng, I do not recomnd you go there, frankly speaking, it’s no place for humans."
Louis spoke earnestly, seemingly truly hoping that Le Cheng would stay away from Saint Elizabeth ntal Hospital.
Le Cheng smiled and said, "It was you guys who sent in there initially, why the change of heart now?"
"..." Louis was montarily at a loss for words.
Louis offered three tokens of sincerity, but the green card he gave away alone revealed much, as Le Cheng was no ordinary person. He carried the burden of over a hundred murder cases, including so involving business and political figures or underworld bosses. The amount of power needed to clear these charges was imaginable.
Indeed, without mincing words, the group that sent Le Cheng into Saint Elizabeth back then and the group now offering him a green card were probably the sa.
And as the liaison in contact with Le Cheng, regardless of Louis’s relationship with past events, at least the identity and stance he represented were clear; therefore, Le Cheng’s response was not unreasonable.
Louis fell silent for a while, then counter-asked, "Why do you want to go to such a place?"
"What if I say I like the atmosphere there? Would you believe ?"
Louis decisively shook his head. He certainly did not believe that. Anyone normal would definitely not enjoy such a dreadful place, unless their mind was skewed and they had a death wish.
Le Cheng spread his hands, "Then I can only say no comnt."
"Mr. Le Cheng, no matter your reasons for wanting to visit that place, I must tell you, it is a true devil’s lair. The mythical Area 51, Disney 33 Club, and Saint Elizabeth ntal Hospital—all three belong to realms temporarily unreachable by mankind. If you stay there too long, you might even cease to be yourself."
"Oh, sounds fun?" Le Cheng perked up at this, "I’ve heard of Area 51 and the Disney 33 Club; aren’t they just regular military bases and billionaires’ private clubs?"
"No, that’s just external propaganda. In fact, those places all hide many secrets and incomprehensible powers." Louis sighed, "Mr. Le Cheng, since you insist on going, I can’t stop you, but I must warn you, just three months ago, an LV4 player visited Saint Elizabeth in the dead of night, but by the next day, he had disappeared without a trace. No one knows where he went or what happened to him, he just vanished."
"That’s really cool!"
"..."
"Alright, my dear Mr. Louis, thank you for your information and concern, but my mind is made up. Even if you disagree, I will visit Saint Elizabeth myself. If everything’s alright from your end, please proceed with the arrangents, I believe you have the capability."
"...Give three days."
Ten minutes later, Louis saw Le Cheng out of the club. Overall, he was quite satisfied with this encounter; except what was beyond his control, all was under his control. However, whether this investnt would yield corresponding value in the future was still uncertain, since no one had ever entered Saint Elizabeth and co out unscathed.
Of course, investing is always a mixture of gains and losses, and Le Cheng was just one among many.
"Mr. Le Cheng, I hope we can et again."
Ding-a-ling—
Le Cheng nodded, taking a few steps before a sudden ringtone from a phone sounded, Louis answered the call, his stern face imdiately revealing a kind smile, "Sweetheart, what’s up?"
Le Cheng abruptly turned back, "You have a daughter? How old is she?"
Thud!
Louis’ hand trembled, and the phone fell straight to the ground, the battery and cover flying out.
He gave Le Cheng a wary look, then quickly picked up his phone and ran without looking back.
"So rude!"
Le Cheng muttered disdainfully, soon driving off in his Bugatti.
...
"Wow, sweetheart, is this your new car? I checked; there are only about forty of these Bugatti models worldwide!"
When Le Cheng got ho, Elena was stunned by the flashy black sports car parked outside; she could hardly imagine that Le Cheng would return from a party driving a global limited edition car.
"Do you like it? Then it’s yours," Le Cheng casually tossed the car keys to Elena.
"For ? Really? Are you really giving it to ?"
"Of course," Le Cheng smiled, given that he hardly needed the vehicle.
"Sweetheart, you’re amazing, I love you so much!"
Elena hugged Le Cheng and gave him a fierce kiss. Although she didn’t know much about cars, she was aware of how expensive such limited edition sports cars could be. Selling it could fetch at least several million dollars, and Le Cheng’s willingness to give it away indicated how highly he valued her.
At least worth ten million dollars.
"Sweetheart, rest awhile, I’ll cook us so food... Oh, I just bought so fun accessories, they should arrive by this evening, we can play to our hearts’ content tonight."
"No rush, I’m staying at ho these days."
"Really?"
"Mhm... What are you doing?"
"Taking ti off!"
Hearing that Le Cheng would be staying at ho for several days, Elena was overjoyed. She imdiately called her boss and took a week off to spend quality ti with Le Cheng.
Three days passed in the blink of an eye.
For Le Cheng, these were just an ordinary three days, but for Elena, these days almost drained all her energy. Her legs were sore, and even her fingers were weak, leaving her no choice but to lie in bed and bid farewell to Le Cheng.
Le Cheng received a package the day before, which contained various identity docunts arranged by Louis, as well as a plane ticket to Washington D.C.
Saint Elizabeth was in Washington D.C.
That afternoon, at Reagan Washington National Airport, an old man with white hair alighted from the plane. He was hunched over, leaning on a cane, looking as if he might fall over with just a gust of wind. Many people around him cast sympathetic glances, wondering how such an elderly person could travel alone without any family.
Then, under the gaze of these people, the old man took off his hat, sequentially removed his coat, beard, and mask, and even straightened his back gradually.
In less than half a minute, the white-haired old man transford into a handso, dashing young man.
People around were stunned.
[I’m looking up, above the moon~~]
The man answered the phone.
"Mr. Le Cheng, the flight will take off in half an hour. Please prepare quickly..."
"Oh, I’m already in Washington."
"What?"
"I never feel safe on your flights. What if I suddenly get shot down by you guys, wouldn’t that be a big loss? Anyway, you don’t need to worry about what’s coming next, goodbye."
Having said that, Le Cheng hung up his phone and threw the discarded items directly into a nearby trash can, calmly leaving under the watchful eyes of many.
Sowhere on the South Coast, Louis looked at his phone, his face a picture of bemusent.
At first, Louis thought Le Cheng was just a skilled, perverted murderer, but the more he interacted, the more he felt an elusive quality about him.
To say he has strong willpower, he shows no resistance at all to material desires like beauty and money. To say he has weak willpower, he can still talk freely to himself, fully aware of the forces backing him, yet never showing any signs of cowardice.
To say he fears death, he dares to easily venture into dangerous places like Saint Elizabeth, but to say he’s fearless, he’s extrely cautious even in traveling.
"This guy... is completely incomprehensible."
Louis muttered to himself, suddenly feeling curious whether Le Cheng could co out of Saint Elizabeth ntal Hospital intact or not.
Suddenly, his eyes brightened, and he quickly picked up a phone.
"Place your bets, place your bets, I bet twenty million that he cos out alive!"
...
In the evening, Le Cheng once again arrived at the Saint Elizabeth ntal Hospital.
Prior to this, Le Cheng had visited a total of two tis; once last ti, and once the ti before last. However, he had never felt there was anything special about this hospital during those visits.
But, perhaps due to signing a contract with Gaia, his spiritual senses had elevated, and just standing at the hospital’s gate, he felt as if an invisible energy enveloped the entire hospital, making one’s hair stand on end involuntarily.
"Stop! Private property, no entry!"
At this mont, the hospital was already closed and temporarily not receiving visitors. Only two burly guards stood in front of the huge iron gate, guns at their hips. As soon as they saw Le Cheng approaching, they imdiately stopped him.
Unperturbed, Le Cheng took out the package and produced a docunt.
"Turns out you’re the attending physician, please co in."
After reviewing the docunt, the guards imdiately allowed him entry.
Whether Le Cheng was a doctor or not didn’t matter; as long as the docunt was authentic, anything could be authentic.
The creaking of the opening gate sounded like the slow opening of the gates to Hell, and Le Cheng lifted his head to see the sky seemingly grow darker.
And just as he officially stepped into the hospital,
A familiar voice resonated in his mind.
