Chapter 397: Chapter 395 Escorting Treatment
When Wang Hai heard Chen Xin’s shout and rushed into the conference room, what he saw was Chen Xin sitting on a chair rubbing his neck, Qin Lan crouched beside him with a worried look checking on him, and Azhu on the floor with half of his face smashed, bleeding profusely, swollen like a pig’s head.
"What happened?" Wang Hai hastily ordered his men to control Azhu on the ground while also sending someone to call the team’s medics, approaching Chen Xin and asking him.
"I don’t know either, he’s a worker who came to report work today. After the meeting he said he had questions to consult, but suddenly he rushed up and strangled my neck. If Alan hadn’t come in and subdued him, I’m afraid he would’ve strangled me to death." Chen Xin explained to Wang Hai intermittently while rubbing his neck, truly thinking he was going to die just now.
"Stop talking, where’s the doctor? Get a doctor here to check on A Xin quickly!" Qin Lan stopped Chen Xin from continuing, shouting at Wang Hai.
Wang Hai broke out in a cold sweat too, feeling his scalp tingle that someone could still get close to Chen Xin under his 24-hour protection and attempt assassination.
If it weren’t for the rule of not allowing any dangerous items into the camp, causing the assassin to only use his hands to strangle and delay time, Chen Xin might already be a dead man.
To Wang Hai, this is not just a blemish of a failed mission, but a huge humiliation!
As the most elite special forces in Flame Country, ordered to protect an important figure, yet leading to the protégé almost being killed, regardless if the cause was Wang Hai’s fault or not, it was his responsibility for failing to protect properly.
If Chen Xin were really assassinated successfully, their entire unit would be shamed, reaching that point, Wang Hai felt he might as well cut his own throat.
Of course, before that, he would catch all those who attempted to assassinate Chen Xin and drown them all in the toilet!
But now wasn’t the time for self-blame, Wang Hai had warriors escort the controlled Azhu away for interrogation, questioning if there were accomplices, as his combat team entered combat status for tighter security on Chen Xin, while also contacting the camp to send reinforcements.
The whole unit was sent to protect Chen Xin, now that there’s an incident on him, evidently, it couldn’t just be Wang Hai’s combat team protecting him anymore.
And as Qin Lan urged Wang Hai to quickly call the doctor, the medics rushed in from outside. An examination later, it was determined that Chen Xin was fine but his neck sustained some injury — it was best to go to a hospital for a professional check-up and treatment by a professional doctor.
Hearing what the medics said, both Wang Hai and Qin Lan had no objections, instantly preparing to send Chen Xin to the hospital for treatment.
However, Wang Hai didn’t immediately let Chen Xin leave the room but waited till the reinforcements from the camp were in place, before letting several warriors escort Chen Xin, putting him on the armored vehicle brought out from the camp.
And at this moment around the armored vehicle, this special forces tasked with protecting Chen Xin was practically moving out in full force, several armored vehicles and all-terrain vehicles loaded with soldiers and light and heavy weaponry surrounded Chen Xin’s armored vehicle for protection.
Simultaneously, several combat groups were dispatched, searching and sweeping any suspicious spots and buildings in the surrounding area, avoiding other lurking threats.
As for the camp, everyone was controlled by these special forces and concentrated for guard, awaiting subsequent investigation.
Chen Xin’s assassination attempt, although these people might not be related, all were suspects, at this moment it was better to mistake a thousand rather than miss one.
At the camp originally escorting scientific experts that hadn’t left yet, also urgently took off at the special forces Commander’s request, hovering above the armored vehicle Chen Xin was on, providing reconnaissance and fire cover.
Such a large scale clearly frightened everyone who saw the spectacle, Lin City Hall was also startled by this event.
The high-ranking official who previously talked with Chen Xin only informed Lin City Hall to take good care of Chen Xin before leaving. Now turning around, Chen Xin was assassinated; this really made them break out in a cold sweat.
Moreover, the grand scene set up by the special forces was really intimidating. Watching the entire convoy coming to Lin City’s currently best hospital under the helicopter escort, they thought that this important figure Chen Xin was on the verge of death, with little chance of saving.
After all, Lin City is just a small city with limited medical standards and conditions.
However, seeing Chen Xin himself getting off the armored vehicle with Qin Lan’s support made the people from Lin City Hall and the hospital breathe a sigh of relief.
No serious issue is the best news, as for subsequent responsibility and related issue handling could be postponed, as long as Chen Xin was fine, the responsibility involved for personnel was undoubtedly significantly lighter.
Although this sounds a bit utilitarian, the difference between Chen Xin being dead and alive is fundamentally two different concepts. Being brought in requiring resuscitation versus not requiring it are also two different situations.
Even if Chen Xin needed resuscitation and couldn’t be saved or was successfully revived, it would lead to entirely different results.
And now like this, with Chen Xin not needing too much treatment but only needing a comprehensive and thorough examination and recuperation, it was already the most desirable situation for many.
A group of people gathered around Chen Xin, sending him for examination and treatment, and this time the Commander directly dispatched two fully armed combat teams around Chen Xin, allowing two warriors to provide 24-hour close protection, not allowing Chen Xin out of their sight for even one second.
Under such tight protection, Chen Xin finally completed all the check-ups; confirmed there was no serious issue, just soft tissue bruising on the neck, before being sent to the best ward in the hospital for further inpatient treatment.
Although Chen Xin felt he didn’t need to be hospitalized, at this moment, nobody dared to let him act recklessly, Qin Lan even firmly pressed him onto the hospital bed, even asking for handcuffs, cuffing one of Chen Xin’s hands to the bed.
Faced with Qin Lan’s radical approach, Chen Xin had no way but to comply.
After all, being so close to death was a great fright for Chen Xin as well.
Lying on the hospital bed, he couldn’t help but reflect if he had been too careless and indifferent regarding his own safety.
Maybe he should consider enhancing his personal combat and protection levels?
Chen Xin pondered over this seriously, yet before sorting out his thoughts, a wave of drowsiness surged forth, making him close his eyes, leaning back on the hospital bed and fell asleep.
