When the three corpses were delivered to Lu Yuan, it was already two o'clock in the morning.
Just a few hours earlier, at noon, the family of three had left Lu Yuan's place.
In the morgue, the neatly dressed Lu Yuan examined each of the three bodies.
First, the man.
The man's abdomen had been cut open, his chest cavity a gory mess, causing Lu Yuan to frown deeply.
The clean, smooth cut from his previous incision couldn't possibly have caused this.
Looking at the man's abdomen again, Lu Yuan didn't need to make another cut into the already opened area.
After a moment, Liu Yuan's brow furrowed slightly.
Both of them saw that the man's body was in utter disarray, and moreover, it was completely empty.
All of the organs that should have been there were gone.
And they had been violently torn out.
At that moment, a flicker of anger rose in Lu Yuan's eyes, "Desecrating a body like this is a blasphemy against life."
Liu Yuan glanced at Lu Yuan and nodded, "Yeah, for the same act, some people do it like artists..."
"While others can only manage like brutes."
After examining the man's body, Lu Yuan moved to the woman's corpse.
The woman's body appeared more intact, and there was even a patrol report from Xifu City.
The report stated that the woman had taken her own life, stabbing herself in the heart with a dagger.
Lu Yuan examined it briefly and could preliminarily confirm that was indeed the case.
Looking at the woman's body, Liu Yuan murmured softly, "Boss, this one seems... to still have a chance."
Lu Yuan shook his head, "It's meaningless, she has already chosen this path. Even if we revived her, it would only increase her suffering."
Liu Yuan asked in confusion, "As a doctor, shouldn't you make it your duty to heal the sick and save lives?"
Lu Yuan didn't deny it, "Yes, but compared to saving lives, I place more importance on saving souls."
"This person's soul is already dead. Unless we can revive her husband as well, she would only do something foolish again within a few days."
After saying this, Lu Yuan was about to examine the third corpse, but he had only taken a step before stopping.
He looked back at the woman's body again and took out a surgical knife from his hand.
Lu Yuan laid bare this woman before himself.
The next second, Lu Yuan closed his eyes in a moment of silence, while Liu Yuan clenched her fists tightly.
This woman's body was also completely empty on the inside.
Even her uterus had been taken away.
But unlike the man's body, which was in utter chaos, the woman's internal condition wasn't as bad, showing no signs of violent removal. It seemed the work of a professional.
"Just this afternoon they were fully alive, and by evening they ended up like this?"
At that moment, an excited, sinister smile appeared on Lu Yuan's face, "Hehehe, looks like we've encountered a fellow practitioner!"
Burning with anger, Liu Yuan frowned at him, "Boss, you're desecrating yourself..."
"The ones you dealt with were either those who came seeking trouble, or infected patients and mutants."
"When have you ever stooped to killing the powerless weak?"
Lu Yuan said, "Every single person I've dealt with was weak."
Liu Yuan: "......"
The young nurse was momentarily dumbfounded, only able to mutter, "Well, compared to you, they certainly were all weak..."
Zipping up the body bag for this corpse, Lu Yuan began examining the third body.
The mother who loved her son above all else.
This mother had been beaten to death.
She was relatively fortunate, having only lost her liver and kidneys.
But Lu Yuan didn't need to think to know what had happened.
For the elderly, once their other organs failed, only the liver and kidneys remained healthy, so those were taken.
After examining all three bodies, Lu Yuan and Liu Yuan left the morgue.
Removing their gloves and masks, tossing them into the trash, Lu Yuan said to Liu Yuan, "Get me a chair. I'm going to gaze at the stars for a bit."
"Okay."
Under the eaves outside the reception hall, Lu Yuan looked up at the night sky with some disappointment.
It was a hazy gray, without any stars visible.
Liu Yuan stood silently behind Lu Yuan.
Shortly after, Lu Yuan glanced at a card in his hand, an organ donation card with a line of elegant writing on the back.
"In my life, I've only been to the hospital twice, and on the same day."
"One visit allowed me to feel hope and warmth in the shadow of losing my loved ones;"
"The other plunged me into the deepest abyss in the midst of my elation."
It was the suicide note written by the woman.
Lu Yuan stared at the card, lost in thought, while Liu Yuan asked softly, "Boss, should we... do something?"
Lu Yuan rubbed the card against his face, asking, "What about the 4,800 yuan that came into the clinic's account today?"
"That patient was expressing their gratitude to you."
"Hmm, how much does it cost to buy a life?"
"For an ordinary person, 20,000 yuan. For an Ability user, starting at 100,000 yuan."
"That expensive? I think I've lost several billion..."
"If you were the one placing the order, Boss, it could be cheaper. Say, a 90% discount?"
Lu Yuan took a deep breath and said, "Alright, that 4,800 yuan can be your bonus for this month, and I'll add another 20,000 yuan on top."
"Go to Xifu City and look into what happened to this family."
"Once you've found the target, recover as much as you can of what they donated to me, then carry out my employer's mission."
Liu Yuan looked off into the distance, "Got it, anything else you want to tell me, Boss?"
"Don't cross the line."
"I know~"
With that, Liu Yuan made a funny face at Lu Yuan, "Wululu~"
......
That night, in the early morning hours, at the Tianyu Hospital office building in Xifu City.
The office building was deserted late at night, with the guards outside dozing off at their posts.
Dressed in a long black gown and a black lace hat, Liu Yuan entered the office building almost effortlessly.
There were no lights on inside the office building, and her black attire seemed to merge with the surrounding darkness.
Clack, clack, clack—
Liu Yuan made no attempt to mask the sound of her high heels, there was no need.
She searched room by room until finally finding the "Records Room" at the far end of the third floor.
Click—
Liu Yuan merely had to look at the lock on the records room door, and it automatically unlocked.
As she entered the records room, snap!
The lights also turned on automatically.
It was as if an invisible pair of hands were secretly assisting her.
Inside the records room, there were five sections: Personnel, Medical Records, Logistics, Finance, and Facilities.
With hands covered in black silk gloves, Liu Yuan's fingers slowly traced over the neatly stacked medical record file bags.
Eventually, Liu Yuan found the latest batch of medical record files.
The medical records came in two varieties: those without covers, and those with covers.
The ones without covers were for ordinary patients, while those with covers were for Ability user patients.
Among the ordinary patient records, Liu Yuan found the files for the family of three.
After reviewing their medical records, Liu Yuan also checked the logistics records and personnel records.
The more records Liu Yuan examined, the more her brow furrowed tightly.
Especially the logistics records.
The logistics records were kept more securely, inside a safe.
But this only delayed Liu Yuan for a moment before the safe opened on its own.
The logistics records were divided into inbound and outbound sections.
The so-called "goods" referred to the organs provided to patients.
What alarmed Liu Yuan was that in the inbound section, over 80% of the goods' sources were from the ordinary patients listed in the medical records!
And the recipients of the outbound goods were naturally the Ability user patients!
In other words, this hospital had been harvesting organs from ordinary patients and providing them to Ability user patients!
Keep in mind, those ordinary patients were living human beings too!
Today's family of three had clearly suffered the same fate!

grated, and just when he finally managed to get into an elite academy, he discovered that he actually had a system, and the way to earn rewards was extremely ridiculous. So for the sake of rewards, he had no choice but to start acting ridiculous as well. Su Cheng: "It's nothing but system quests after all." But later, what confused Su Cheng was that while he was already quite ridiculous, he never expected those serious characters to gradually become ridiculous too. And the way they looked at him became increasingly strange... (This synopsis doesn't do it justice, please read the full story)
