Dennis smiled. This was not new to him; years ago, he had always been doubted for his knowledge and expertise in the medical field.
However, now, everyone that knew him regarded him as a god of medicine. He walked closer to Duncan's bed and extended his hand out to Kuza for a shake,"Don't worry, get to know me. I'm not here to make trouble," he said confidently, and she gazed at him in amusement.Kuza was still not on board with whatever Yura had planned, but she decided to give her the benefit of the doubt, knowing that Yura wanted her grandfather alive just as much as she did.Hesitantly, she extended her hand and shook Dennis with a lingering suspicion about him.Dennis suddenly held her hand tightly, squeezing it a little, and Kuza experienced the most bizarre thing - She felt a sudden heat flow from her hand into her body.Kuza panicked immediately and wanted to pull her hand away, but just then, Dennis let go, giving her a wry smile."What the hell was that, you bastard?!" She yelled, raising her hand to hit him, but Dennis swiftly blocked it, gently lowering her hand down"Calm yourself, Ms Kuza", he said softly"What did you do to me?" She asked with a suspicious look, shifting her gaze between Dennis and YuraDennis could not give up the opportunity to tease her and address her doubts about him earlier,"Medicine," he said with a wry smile, and Kuza shot him a piercing angry look"Has your period pain eased?" He asked her softly, and Kuza felt more puzzled.She remained unmoved, unsure of what to say. It was apparent that she was dealing with a crazy man.The only thing she couldn't figure out was why Yura had brought him to save her grandfather's life, and her confidence in him began to fade.But suddenly, she had a shocking realization, he was right. She could not feel her period pains anymore.Immediately she felt frantic and paced around uncomfortably, filled with many questions.There was no medical explanation for what had just happened. Throughout her years in medical school, she had never experienced or heard of anything of the such, but still, she could not ignore the fact that the pain was completely gone.This challenged everything she believed in science and medicine naturally. There was no such thing as magic, but how could she explain this? She thought as she paced around uncomfortably."How did you do it?" She turned sharply and asked him, her face turning red from embarrassment from knowing that this stranger, whom she still believed was crazy, had somehow known about her period pain"Did Yura tell you?" She added sharply and turned to Yura"Did you tell him?" She asked sternly"No, Ms Kuza. You should really try and relax," Yura said, and Kuza felt infuriated.Nothing made sense at that point, and she raked her hand through her hair in frustrationDennis smiled satisfactorily and moved closer to Akio, and began to examine his condition, ignoring KuzaA few moments later, he turned to Yura and stared at her with a reassuring smile on his face"I know what's wrong with him. I know how to save your grandfather," he said confidently, and Yura's face brimmed."Great", she replied, rubbing her palms I'm excitement"What do we have to do?" She asked him. The nurse stopped pacing when she overheard that Dennis had found a solution.She was curious to know what it was and hurried over to them"What did you find? Is it a brain paralysis situation?" She asked impulsively, still trying to find a medical link to rationalise the unsettling doubts about science going on in her headDennis turned to her and said with pleasure"No, Ms Kuza", and shifted his gaze to Yura"Can you find someone to transport your grandfather to the yard? I need to get him out under the sunshine," He asked"The yard?!" The nurse exclaimed."What the hell for?" She turned and stared at Yura with a serious look"Yura, listen to me. I have been your family's nurse and treated your grandfather's illness and examined his condition for years. Now, do not move him; we do not have a full grasp of what his conditions are and moving him could be dangerous.""I know you think this man knows what he's doing, especially with that little act he performed earlier, but trust me, if you move your grandfather while he is still in this state, we have no idea what complications may arise", she sputtered, pleading with Yura to reconsider.Dennis yawned exhaustively, awaiting Yura's permission to proceed.Yura stared at the nurse for moments without saying a word; she could understand her fear. Not only was she their family's nurse, but Kuza had also gotten fond of her grandfather and cared deeply for him.She understood that it was this fondness that made her so involved in his health and was only looking out for him.She heaved a tired sigh and said,"Ms Kuza. I thank you for everything you've done for my grandfather and for keeping him alive till now," Yura said and extended her arm and held Kuza gently."But this is a little above your area of expertise. Now you have tried everything you could to help and stabilize my grandfather's situation, but nothing has worked","I won't wait around any more and let anything happen to him. Mr Apollo says he knows how to save him, and for now, I'm going to put my faith in him," Yura retortedShe turned and faced Dennis and said affirmatively,"Okay"Dennis sprung up immediately and started moving towards the door, while Yura brought out her phone and called the female guard inside to push her grandfather to the yard on a stretcher.Dennis waited outside the door, and when Yura and, surprisingly, the nurse caught up to him with Lord Duncan pushed behind on a stretcher,Suddenly, they heard an angry voice that made them pause their strides"Stop!"

Kuza got up and paced frantically and as Dennis tried to stand up, he staggered on his feet and collapsed on the ground.At this point, the negative imbalance was eating at the core of his chiSeeing his drop to the floor, Kuza hurried towards him and supported him towards the bench. Before coming here, Dennis had drafted a sentimental apology speech, but at this moment, it was a lot harder to say anything.Suddenly, she caught a glimpse of Akio from the corner of her eyes and hurriedly approached him"Tell me there's a way to undo this" she spoke frantically Elder Akio remained quiet for some time, caressing his soft white beard, and then said, "There might be a way to, but...","But what?" Kuza interjected impatiently"I can't do it. It'll require someone with a very powerful Gift, someone like you", Akio replied"Me?" Kuza asked in shock. She had barely learned the basic techniques of Chi manipulation, how then was she expected to heal someone with a level 10 Chi energy?Her face

The moment Akio uttered those words, Dennis stood still for a moment, bit his lips, and then smiled weakly He had foreseen his death in his heart when he realized there was an imbalance in his Chi levels. He now understood why most gurus did not attempt to reach the yin-yang ChiAt a moment like this, it was only a matter of time. No one or anything could save him, and a part of him knew that"How did this happen, Dennis?" Elder Akio's voice echoed again in his earsDennis did not answer. Instead, he remained standing for some moments, using Diune to listen to the familiar heartbeats hiding and eavesdropping from behind the door, and a weak smile curled from the corners of his lip"Dennis! How did this happen?!" Apiu shouted angrily Dennis broke out of his trance and heaved a deep sigh, staring at Apiu who looked back at him for an explanation, "I can't recall," he said vaguely Apiu raised his hand and smacked his forehead in frustration"What do you mean you can't recall?" He sne

Immediately after he read the message, Dennis quickly called Apiu. As soon as the call entered, Apiu picked it up "Are they safe?", Dennis asked impatiently"Yes, they are. Meet us at the cabin" Apiu respondedDennis sighed gladly, glanced at his wristwatch, and said "I'll be there within the hour" then ended the callDennis walked onto the street and hailed a taxi. He was sure that with ties to Jon's case, the cops would also be looking for him. Till this whole was sorted out, he had to keep a low-profileThe taxi halted in front of him, and after he entered, he gave the man the location of a private home just miles away from the cabinAfter driving for some minutes, he finally arrived at the building, and upon handing the driver the fare, Dennis turned and searched around, making sure no one was following or watching him Upon confirming that it was safe, he called Apiu again and then headed toward the cabinApiu felt a sudden chill surging in his heart when he saw Dennis.

"There's no mark on the body!" The young officer exclaimed in shock"What are you talking about?!", Mark asked "We did forensics on the body, to determine what weapon the killer used, but we found nothing. There's no trace" he exclaimed Deshaun chuckled lightly, raised his hand, and gently tapped Mark, "See I told you, Mark, it wasn't Dennis. Take this as a win", he said and turned to give, but before he walked out of the room, he suddenly stopped and pat his head as if he had forgotten something"Oh, Mark. I almost forgot","I did see someone else here. While I was arriving, I saw him just pulling out of the driveway. It was your boss, Victor, you should be investigating instead" Deshaun said, then leaned closer and added"Maybe Victor found out that his partner Jon was trying to pull one over him and decided to kill him",Mark was stunned, he did not want to believe what Deshaun was suggesting, but before he could even express his shock. Deshaun reached into his coat pocket and br

"How did this happen?" Deshaun repeated walking towards Dennis"I don't know what happened. He said some things about my mother, which was the last thing I could remember. I don't know if I killed him or not" Dennis answeredWhen Deshaun saw him, a dash of gloom hovered over his head. He felt sympathy for his friend but knew that sooner or later, the cops would find Jon's body and if they had any suspicions that Dennis killed him, he would be thrown into prisonDeshaun walked closer and examined the sharp piercing in Jon's head, sighed gladly, and said "You need to get out here, go somewhere far, but don't skip town. I'm going to radio this in, the cops can't find you here when they arrive",Dennis stood up and nodded without a word, then turned around and walked back towards the bed where his wallet had fallen, picked it up, and as he was about to walk out, he stopped beside Deshaun and whispered "I hated everything about him, and wanted nothing more than for him to die by my hands,

Dennis felt slightly dejected staring at Jon's corpse on the ground. The last few minutes seemed like a blur with a vague recollection of what had happenedHesitantly, he moved closer to Jon's body and noticed a sharp piercing through his head. Dennis raised his hands and searched for any weapons he could have used to do thisAt this point, his heart strangely felt heavy. He knew he had killed Jon, but why was he suddenly feeling remorse for him?Just as he sighed, disheartened, his phone suddenly rang and Dennis retrieved the phone from his pocket to see that it was from DeshaunDennis didn't want to pick up the call as he stared at Deshaun's name on the screen. He had a good impression he knew what this was about. Afterall he was the one on the call with JonWhen Deshaun and the cops must have arrived at Mariner Bay tracing the signal, they would have realized that there were just tracing a fake signalIf that happened, knowing Deshaun, he would assume that Dennis must have known so
