Shane continued to ask: "But Bruno always wanted to marry Bertha, how could he not make a move?"
"This…"
Just when Venn was having difficulty, not knowing how to answer, Dante knocked on the door and entered.
Venn immediately stood up to greet: "Second brother, how is Shane?"
"His body parameters are normal, the bandage can be removed," Dante said as he walked to the window and pulled the curtains open.
Venn returned to the bed, Shane raised his hand to refuse: "Let me do it myself."
He reached behind his neck and removed the bandages one by one.
Dante stood at the end of the bed and reminded: "Take it off slowly, don't open your eyes too quickly, slowly adapt to the light."
Shane did as he was told. After removing the bandage, his eyelashes fluttered and he slowly opened his eyes.
He lowered his head to look down at his hands. His eyes seemed to be covered by a thick layer of fog. He vaguely saw the outline of his hands. Compared to the darkness in his eyes, there was no light. It's been a while, it's much better now.
Venn seemed to be looking forward to approaching him. He raised his hand and waved it in front of Shane's eyes: "Do you see anything?"
"I can't see clearly, but I can almost get a sense of direction," Shane answered honestly.
'So look at me, can you see my face? See what I'm showing now?" Venn leaned down, putting his face close to Shane's.
Shane looked at Venn seriously for a moment then shook his head.
Venn sighed, he turned his head to look at Dante standing at the head of the bed.
'Brother, what should we do now? The other day Shane had to call a meeting and report to Eugene and Mr. Benedict but his eyes still couldn't see clearly. Those people are extremely smart and will find out."
Dante didn't show anything. He wrote down Shane's observations in his notebook: "Don't rush. Isn't there tomorrow?"
After taking notes, he took out the prescription, prescribed a new medicine, and leisurely said to Venn: "The nurse will deliver the medicine tonight, remember to watch him take the medicine."
Venn nodded.
Dante tore off the page with the prescription written on it, he turned and walked out.
Shane called him back: 'Dante, there's something I need your help with."

Country H.
The banquet hall was very bustling.
When climbing the wall out of Bruno's bedroom, Liam conveniently took away an expensive suit.
Waiting until he stood in the palace hallway again, he took off the ugly mask from before, returning to his handsome and elegant appearance.
A servant passed by, and seeing how he was dressed, she immediately bowed her head to make way.
He followed the same path he took to the palace last time and found Arzee Palace.
Compared to the bustle of the banquet hall, this place seemed very quiet, with no passersby and the lights were quite dark.
He was observing the Arzee palace when two guards stepped out from a dark corner.
"Who is that?"
Seeing how Liam was dressed, they immediately changed their respectful attitude and said in a low voice: "Sir, you're going the wrong way, the banquet room is over there, this is Mr. Charles's private residence."
Liam observed the two of them.
Unexpectedly, Bruno also sent someone to secretly guard this place. It seems like the real cure might be hidden here.
He withdrew his thoughts, pretending to smile awkwardly, and he replied: "Sorry."
The two guards smiled and bowed their heads, watching him turn and leave.
However, he had only taken two steps when the guard suddenly noticed something unusual: "Your voice sounds strange. Are you the young master of which duke's family?"
Liam stopped walking, he silently clenched his fists.
He pretended to be angry, strode in front of a guard, and fiercely grabbed his collar: "Open your eyes and see clearly. Who am I? How dare you not recognize me?"
The two guards were frightened by Liam's sudden anger and looked at each other.
The guard whose collar he grabbed replied under his breath: "We are guards recruited by the princess. We were brought straight to see Sir Charles. We don't recognize you."
Liam laughed coldly: "Didn't realize that was true."
Taking advantage of the two people's bewilderment, he acted extremely quickly, grabbed the electric gun from the other person's hand, and within a second, he directly knocked out the other two people.
To prevent surprise, he fired a few more electric shots into the stomachs of the two of them.
Then he stripped them of their clothes, keeping only their underwear, stuffed their shirts into their mouths, and twisted their coats and pants into a rope, tying them up tightly.
In the end, he silently hid them in the corner of the toilet of the Arzee palace.
The whole process only takes about five minutes, without any hassle at all.
There was a surveillance camera in front of the door. He avoided the camera's view, climbed the window into Bruno's bedroom, and began a large-scale search.
…
Bruno wakes up.
The back of his neck hurt, he wrinkled his forehead, unconsciously raised his hand to rub the back of his neck, and saw blood stains.
Bertha sat on the sofa next to him, she drank juice.
Bruno looked around the room, leaning back on the sofa, he cautiously asked: "Bertha, who just came?"
Bertha did not answer his question but retorted: "Bruno, did you never intend to give me medicine to cure the super virus?"
He was stunned and narrowed his eyes dangerously: "It seems you already know something."
Bertha put down her glass of juice and got straight to the point.
'Today, you honestly told me so many words, but only medical matters were kept hidden. Do you think I'm still the same girl from ten years ago, not understanding anything, just spinning around behind your back?"
Bruno bowed his head: 'That's right, I have no intention of giving you an antidote because I want to possess you. Only when Shane dies can both your body and your heart return to me."
Bertha snorted coldly: 'You are wrong, if he dies, my heart will die too. Moreover, it was you who killed him, I will hate you and will kill you too."
Bruno's phoenix eyes stared at her, he said nothing more.
