Chapter 268 Bring him before you.
A loud, agonizing scream echoed through the hospital from Henry Fallon.
Nearby, a female doctor held a cotton swab, looking at him with a furrowed brow.
She had never seen a grown man act so dramatic before.
“Are you done screaming?” she asked calmly.
“It hurts!” Henry exclaimed.
“I haven’t even started yet!”

“Uh…” Henry paused, glancing at the doctor’s hand, which was indeed still a distance away from him.
“Uh, I… I hurt…” he mumbled quietly, feeling a bit embarrassed but genuinely scared.
Just then, Hugo Hodges entered the room.
The doctor gave Henry a disdainful glance and proceeded to apply the medication.
As Henry was about to let out another scream, Hugo quickly covered his mouth.
“Mmmph!”
Hugo nodded to the doctor, “Please, go ahead.”
Without a word, the doctor continued to disinfect, apply medication, and bandage the wound.
A few minutes later, the bandaging was complete.

Henry sat there, feeling as pitiful as a child.
How could they treat him like this?
The doctor chose to ignore him, turning to the computer and asking, “What injured you?”
“Uh…”

“Something like an alloy,” Hugo said calmly.
The doctor glanced at Henry, who nodded obediently.
The doctor turned back to the computer, typing a few notes. “The wound isn’t too serious. Just get a tetanus
shot and come back a few times for dressing changes. Remember to keep it dry at home.”
Henry’s eyes widened. “Another shot???”
“Is there a problem?” the doctor asked.
Just as Henry was about to speak, Hugo interjected, “No problem!”
“Take a left outside, the injection room is that way!”
Henry wanted to protest, but Hugo simply dragged him out.
In the hallway, Henry looked pitiful and a bit aggrieved. “Boss, can’t you be a little gentler with me?”
“Gentle?” Hugo raised an eyebrow.
Henry realized he was asking for too much. He quickly added, “Okay, maybe not gentle, but can we skip the
shot? It’s not that bad, no need to waste resources.”

“If it wasn’t necessary, why were you yelling so dramatically earlier?”
Henry stood there, stammering, “I…”
Hugo couldn’t be bothered and walked straight ahead.
At the entrance to the injection room.

Watching the kids inside getting their shots and crying loudly, Henry couldn’t help but swallow hard.
He was absolutely terrified of needles.
Just seeing that thin needle pierce the skin made him feel faint.
“Next!” The nurse suddenly called out from inside.
Henry jumped; it was his turn.
But his legs felt like they were made of lead, refusing to move forward.
Especially after seeing a child come out crying, Henry felt even more scared.
He turned his gaze to Hugo, about to say something, but Hugo just gave him a knowing look.
Henry had no choice but to accept his fate and shuffle inside.
As he neared the door, Henry suddenly said, “I… I need to use the restroom!”
With that, he turned and dashed away.
Watching Henry’s retreating figure, Hugo couldn’t help but smile wryly.
Having been with Hugo for years, Henry was fearless about everything–except needles.

Thinking about it, Henry smiled slightly and walked over.
Inside the restroom, he paced around for a bit.
Feeling that enough time had passed, he decided it was time to leave. He peeked his head out, intending to
check the surroundings, but immediately spotted Hugo standing at the door.
“Planning to go somewhere?” Hugo asked with a smirk.
Henry smiled back, “No, nowhere in particular. Just heading back for the shot!”
Hugo nodded, “In that case, go ahead!”
Reluctantly, Henry turned around and walked back.
Hugo followed him all the way to the injection room. Henry shot Hugo a particularly resentful look before
entering with a resigned expression.
Inside, the nurse’s voice soon echoed.
“What’s wrong?”
“Hey, wake up!”
“What happened?”
“I don’t know, I haven’t even given him the shot yet.”
“Could he have fainted at the sight of the needle?”
Hearing the commotion, Hugo walked in.

Henry had already slumped over in the chair…
Dockside.
Inside a small cabin.

A man of Central Asian descent sat in a chair as two burly men entered, each carrying a gun.
“What’s the situation?” he asked.
The two men shook their heads. “They must have escaped!”
“Escaped, huh?” he murmured, a cold smile playing at the corners of his lips.
He then turned his gaze to the man sitting in a chair nearby, who was having his wounds tended to.
Walking over, he pressed the gun directly to the man’s head.
Seeing this, the man immediately spoke in fear, “Boss!”
“You better give me a reasonable explanation, or else you know what happens,” the man called Boss said, his
voice low but his sharp features exuding a menacing aura.
The man looked at him, swallowed hard, and quickly replied, “Boss, they weren’t Ray King’s people. They
didn’t ask anything about the goods!”
“Oh? Then what were they here for?” Boss asked.
“They were asking about tattoos, and that man, Boss, you’ve seen him before!”

“Yes, remember at the hotel entrance? There was a beautiful Eastern woman asking about tattoos, and then
a man showed up. It was him!” the man explained.
As he mentioned this, Boss narrowed his eyes, seemingly recalling the events of that day.
He had a pretty strong impression of Hugo Hodges. After all, the competition between males is something
you can sense at a glance.
“And then?” the man called Boss asked.
“He was also asking about the tattoo!” the guy said. “And he even showed me a tattoo with an eagle
emblem!”
Hearing this, Boss suddenly paused. “What did you say?”
“It’s true!” the guy insisted. “But before I could tell him anything, shots were fired!”
As Boss listened, a strange expression crossed his face.
The eagle emblem tattoo.
That was someone’s signature tattoo, a mark for over twenty years. He hadn’t expected anyone to remember
But what were they looking for?
And how were they connected to him?
Could it be…

At that moment, Boss looked at the guy, a sinister smile playing on his lips. “Mo, do you know what happens
to those who betray me?”
“I know, but I haven’t betrayed you!” Mo replied sincerely, his eyes filled with fear yet maintaining a calm
demeanor.
Boss chuckled. “Alright then, find this person. I want to know what their true intentions are!”
Mo realized that if he didn’t do something, it would be hard to clear his name. Finally, he nodded seriously.
“I’ll bring him to you!”
Boss scrutinized him for a long moment before putting away his gun and patting Mo on the shoulder. “You
have two days.” With that, he turned and headed out.
“Hurry up, make sure to move the goods today!”
“Got it!”
