Chapter 334

Lionel saw Elijah sitting on the edge of the bed, brows slightly furrowed as if trying to endure something. He quickly went over and gave Elijah a supportive hand, noticing Elijah’s icy hand.

“Mr. Freeman, you look terrible.”

“I’m fine.”

Elijah’s eyelashes trembled slightly as he masked the intense pain in his back, appearing exceptionally stern.

In a strained voice, he asked, “Where’s Ian?”

“I found him. He explained that he saw the man who ordered him to harm Sheena but couldn’t catch

1. up. I had no evidence, so I let him return to Ocean Avenue. He’ll report this to Sheena when the tcomes.”

Elijah’s throat was hurting, but he still forcefully said, “Have someone watch over Ian and report immediately if there’s any movement. At the police station, request the release of the man who threw sulfuric acid last night in the nof the National Investigation Bureau. If Sheena wants to interrogate him, make sure they cooperate fully.”

“Understood.”

Elijah wanted to say more, but his arm supporting him suddenly trembled, and his entire body felt weightless.

Lionel observed his condition, clearly sensing something was wrong, and asked, “Mr. Freeman, even if you were injected with the modified drug, sulfuric acid only harms the skin. How can you be so weakened?”

Elijah remained silent.

Lionel approached him, intending to inspect his injuries.

Frowning, Elijah’s tone turned icy and scolded, “Let go. Your audacity is growing.”

Lionel insisted. “Lettake a look. If you want to punishafterward, go ahead. I just can’t rest without seeing it for myself!”

Seeing that Lionel was so determined, Elijah finally admitted, “It’s not sulfuric acid. It should be the S404 biochemical agent.‘

“What?” Lionel’s hand jerked back, face turning pale.

S404 was a newly developed weapon from the war lab. It not only burned the skin but also had internal effects. Due to its experimental nature, there was currently no cure for the internal damage, making the harm potentially irreversible.

Lionel’s eyes reddened, and he mumbled in disbelief, “How could this happen? S404 is clearly banned, and only a dozen samples are known to exist in the military. There shouldn’t be any…

Lionel abruptly stopped mid–sentence as he realized something, and he looked at Elijah in

Arrange for someone to keep him in Farlem by any means necessary. Also, have the Special Investigation Department thoroughly investigate if there are any records of accessing the drug depository. Not a single bottle of S404 should be missing.”

Elijah covered his mouth, a fit of coughing seizing him, yet his every move remained composed and elegant.

Lionel quickly helped him, patting his back to ease the discomfort.

After catching his breath, Elijah continued, “If anything seems amiss, I don’t care whether Nathaniel is involved or not, but I’ll target him.”

The situation was mysterious, and regardless of whether S404 was intended for Sheena or him, it would involve many people.

“Yes, Mr. Freeman,” Lionel replied dutifully, but his greater concern was Elijah’s health.

“Mr. Freeman, what if we go back? Perhaps they can develop a treatment there. At the very least, it could ease the effects and pain caused by S404 on your body. We could also deal with the 023 you’re currently on.”

Elijah replied without hesitation, “No need.”

He could not afford to expose himself to be stronger than Sheena. As long as he wished to stay by her side, maintaining a vulnerable front was important. If she noticed anything different, she might have misunderstood him again.

Elijah had worked hard to improve her perception of him, and he could not afford to undo that

progress.

Lionel was frustrated at how stubborn Elijah was.

“Is pursuing your ex–wife more important than taking care of your own health? We don’t even have data on the effects of S404 on the human body yet! Aren’t you afraid that you won’t be around anymore when you finally win over Ms. Sheena?”
