Chapter 2946: Chapter 2946: Situation Analysis
Lin Yi was well aware that although he was stronger than them, in some matters, he was not much stronger.
The reason the bullet didn’t penetrate deeper was because he was wearing the firefighting suit provided by the system.
While it was fireproof and heat-resistant, its toughness was also outstanding, which helped block the bullet’s impact to a certain extent.
And the injury on his leg—if it weren’t for the firefighting suit, it wouldn’t have been just a scratch; he’d likely have lost the entire leg.
Soon, Lin Yi was taken to the hospital.
Because Luo Qi had already extracted the bullet, the follow-up treatment was much simpler.
Upon learning that all the operation was completed by Luo Qi in the ambulance and even with incomplete instruments, the doctors at the hospital were astonished for a while.
Due to the injury’s special location, the procedure was quite complicated.
This young girl managed to complete it independently, which left them shocked.
Not long after Lin Yi arrived at the hospital, Yang Guangsha came with Mo Hongshan and Gao Chong.
They arranged everything, ensuring that it was handled with the highest specifications, without any mishaps.
With the hospital cooperating seamlessly, the wound treatment was completed within half an hour.
As a hospital in the garrison area, the patients here were somewhat different from other hospitals.
Despite seeing Lin Yi’s injuries, they still could not believe it.
It was precisely because of these injuries that they understood why the garrison leadership came in person.
These were scars exchanged at the cost of near-death experiences.
Although the injury wasn’t severe, Lin Yi was forced into a wheelchair due to the leg wound and pushed back to the ward.
Lin Yi made a silent calculation in his heart.
Given his physical condition, the back wound might take some time to heal, but the leg injury should recover in about three days.
"How are you feeling?"
Seeing Lin Yi return, Yang Guangsha asked.
"Just a bit numb on the back, no feeling," Lin Yi replied. "But it’s no big deal."
"I guess this is related to your previous operation. I don’t understand much about what’s going on inside. You guys can discuss and come up with a solution, then let Hongshan and his team handle it. This matter can’t be left unresolved."
"Thank you, Mr. Yang," Lin Yi said with a cheeky grin.
"Since you’re fine here, I’ll head off first. Take care and heal well in the hospital."
"Got it."
Seeing nothing serious, Yang Guangsha left with his entourage.
Lin Yi was also hopeful for this.
Before long, people from the brigade would surely arrive. If Yang Guangsha were still there, it would be hard to explain.
Keeping a low profile would be challenging.
"Boss, we currently suspect two parties: Mammon and the Gongyuan Association. Who do you think is more likely?" Yu Siying asked.
"The Gongyuan Association, I suppose."
Group One didn’t speak and continued to wait for Lin Yi’s analysis.
"First of all, you must understand that doing such things locally in Zhong Hai is extremely risky. Generally, no one would take such actions."
"There’s hardly any animosity between us and Mammon. They’re more interested in the new type of ore than my life. Rather than being a group, they’re more like a machine. So I don’t believe they’d seek revenge."
After a pause, Lin Yi continued:
"By contrast, the Gongyuan Association has a perfect motive since we wiped out their entire Execution Team. They have ample reason to do this, and they’ve done similar things before."
"When we return to the island, we’ll have to settle both old and new scores," Sui Qiang said.
Lin Yi nodded but didn’t say more.
There will be a major conflict between the Central Guards Brigade and the Gongyuan Association sooner or later.
If it’s just a conflict between the two sides, Lin Yi isn’t afraid, even somewhat excited.
But after Gongyuan Association, there’s still Anglo.
They are the hidden puppeteers in the shadows.
Even Elder Lu knows very little about this organization. If it comes to facing them, it would surely be detrimental to Lin Yi’s side.
The foreseeable future seemed like a fog to Lin Yi.
He wanted to clear it, but he felt powerless.
He could only wade through it himself.
After analyzing the specifics, footsteps outside soon followed—it was Ding Fei and others who arrived.
Among them was Ma Xiangqiang.
Seeing Ma Xiangqiang gave Lin Yi a slight sense of relief.
He knew that his identity would serve as a buffer in certain necessary situations, saving him from unnecessary explanations.
Seeing Group One members inside, Ding Fei and others hesitated.
The scene from before lingered vividly in their minds.
That aura truly felt murderous.
"You all go out first."
Lin Yi called Group One members out but instructed Xiao Bing to block any news about the fire on their way out.
To prevent Ji Qingyan from seeing it.
Once Group One members left, only brigade members were inside.
"Judging by your condition, you should be fine," Ma Xiangqiang said, smiling warmly.
"Indeed, the injury isn’t severe."
"During this time, just focus on recuperating. Return to work after you recover."
"Thank you, Leader."
Ma Xiangqiang gave an awkward laugh, silently thinking, please stop calling me Leader!
Seeing Lin Yi was alright, the spirits of the brigade members lifted significantly.
Ding Fei deliberately refrained from mentioning the gunshot wound, clearly having been briefed by Ma Xiangqiang beforehand.
About an hour later, the brigade members also left.
Only then did Group One members return from outside, and by then, night had fallen.
Lin Yi sat with his phone, chatting with Ji Qingyan via WeChat without revealing his injury.
"Lin Bro, Sister Qiu and Sister Ning called. They were at the airport and should arrive in Zhong Hai in about an hour," Luo Qi informed.
Lin Yi nodded, "There’s nothing much here. You all prepare well. The plan remains the same; we’ll set out tomorrow morning."
"But your back is still hurt. We shouldn’t leave now," Luo Qi said.
"This is Zhong Hai; it’s not suitable to recuperate here."
The group understood Lin Yi’s reasoning.
If Ji Qingyan saw his injuries, she’d certainly worry.
"Understood."
As the city lights turned on, Zhong Hai’s nightlife gradually unfolded.
By past eight in the evening, Ning Che and Qiu Yuluo arrived.
"Looks like you’re fine," Qiu Yuluo said.
"Just superficial injuries, nothing serious."
"Any results? Who did it?" Ning Che asked while peeling some fruit.
"It should be the Gongyuan Association; Mammon is unlikely to do such things," Lin Yi said.
"How are they doing? Any recent movements?"
"According to Tao Cheng, a new team has landed on the island, but they haven’t clashed yet, so we don’t know their skill level," Ning Che said.
"But from his tone, they seem not as strong as before, but not weak either."
