He asked in a low voice. 'Where's Archie?"
"I found it. He explains that he saw the man who had harmed Bertha earlier, but he did not catch up with him. I don't have any evidence, so I let him return to the beach villa first. Until then, he will report this matter to Miss. Bertha."
Derek spoke with difficulty. 'Please continue to monitor Archie, once he takes any action, you immediately notify me. As for the Police Department, you, in the name of the National Investigation Department, asked them to release Bertha. If Bertha wants to interrogate the man who threw acid last night, then ask them to cooperate fully."
"Yes."
Derek wanted to continue speaking, but his arms on the bed shook, and his whole body became weak.
Seeing his condition, Liam felt something was wrong again. 'Boss, even if you are injected with special medicine, sulfuric acid will only damage your skin. Why do you look so weak?"
Derek said nothing.
Liam moved closer to Derek, he wanted to pull down his shirt to see the wound.
He frowned and said coldly, 'Let go, do you dare do that?"
Liam had no choice, he was unhappy, said. 'Boss, let me watch for a bit. After I finish watching, you can punish me however you want. If I don't see your injuries with my own eyes, I wouldn't feel secure."
Liam took the initiative to receive punishment. Derek couldn't shake Liam, he opened his mouth to speak. 'It's not sulfuric acid, I guess it's the biochemical drug S404."
"What?"
Liam's hands shook, and he let go of Derek's shirt, his face pale.
'S404 is a weapon recently researched by the war laboratory. It not only causes skin burns but also has certain effects on the body. However, there is no cure yet, so the wound may not heal."
Liam's eyes were red, he couldn't believe it. 'Why did this happen? S404 medicine is a product banned from circulation on the market, except for the military, but there are only more than a dozen sample bottles, all over the country, we can't find it..."
His voice suddenly stopped, realizing something, he looked towards Derek in surprise. 'Could it be… boss, you suspect…"
"Correct."
Derek's eyebrows were extremely gloomy. 'Within three days, Bruno will leave, no matter what method you use, you must keep him in the city. Please check to see if there is a record of the pharmaceutical warehouse, there cannot be a single bottle missing from S404 in the warehouse."
He covered his mouth and coughed violently, but raising his hand was still as noble and cold as before.
Liam quickly helped him rub his back.
Derek regained his composure and continued speaking. 'If there is anything unusual, regardless of whether this matter is related to Bruno, I will take him to the secret investigation department for handling."
This is too strange, regardless of whether they used S404 on Bertha or him, there are many people behind this involved.
'Yes, boss."
Liam answered seriously, but compared to these things, he was more worried about Derek's body.
'Boss, should we go back? Perhaps the other side has a treatment method, if not, they can also reduce the damage and pain of S404 to your body, so they can conveniently create the antidote to 023 for you."
Derek didn't think twice. "Do not need."
Bertha couldn't fight him. He had to play the weakling as long as he wanted to stay by her side for one day. If Bertha found out, it would cause inevitable misunderstandings.
It's not easy for him to change her perspective, he can't take the risk.
Liam wanted to go crazy.
His forehead was covered with blue veins.
'In the end, is pursuing your wife more important, or is your body more important? Even the laboratory cannot predict how much damage S404 will cause. Boss, aren't you afraid that by the time you pursue your wife, you won't have your life to enjoy?"
After saying these words, Liam welcomed Derek's sharp, cold, and angry eyes.
He also knew he was too hasty. He said something wrong, slapped him in the face twice, and bowed his head to admit his mistake. 'Sorry boss, I was too excited, I didn't mean to scold you."
He used a lot of force with those two slaps, the corner of his mouth was torn and bleeding.
Although his eye sockets were red, his expression was very uncomfortable, his appearance was dissatisfied.
Derek soothed the pain in his body, he no longer had the strength to compare and calculate with Liam, and his voice was weak.
'I will go back, but first I have to deal with Bertha's matter. You tell Jason to go back first, tell him to find a temporary inhibitor for S404, and at the same time find medicine to treat my scars."
Liam was speechless. 'Boss, are you worried that the wound will leave a scar? Is beauty more important or is your life more important?
Derek stared at Liam, his voice cold. "You do not listen to me?"
Liam took a deep breath, he didn't dare to delay, and slapped himself so hard, that his face was swollen.
Boss still didn't say stop, he wanted to continue beating him, Derek spoke up to stop. "Enough."
Liam rubbed his face.
Derek just wants to pursue his wife but doesn't need the friend who lived and died with him.
He's so heartless.
Derek didn't hear Liam's complaint, his face was pale and expressionless.
Derek talked too much just now, his body lost a bit of strength, Liam helped him lie down on the hospital bed to rest.
Derek wanted to buy scar medicine because he discovered that Bertha liked to admire men's physiques. She liked men with muscles. If he left such an ugly scar on his back, he would lose the advantage of pursuing her.
At this time, the hospital room was extremely quiet.
