Ultimately, Shang Ke chose to stay in prison rather than hide outside. They had strict defensive measures, stable food supply every day, and even medical insurance. You only had to guard against harassment from prison mates and then you could 'rest easy.'

In the past, Shang Ke would never go to prison, but since he had both martial arts and a spirit guide which could detect danger, ordinary people weren't really his match. It was unfortunate that this world didn't have the conditions to use magic (like elements and mana), otherwise he wouldn't have to worry about the attacks from the anti-government union.

After leaving a sentence of 'surrender', Shang Ke splendidly passed out...

"What? You found Zeder?" Upon receiving this news, Yonis got up instantly.

"Let's go."

They took Shang Ke to a closed off hospital protected by guards. It was a medical institution mainly used to treat prisoners or other relevant personnel.

Strictly speaking, Shang Ke had not yet been convicted, and so they could only regard him as an important suspect. However, because of the serious nature of the terrorist's attack, they still placed him under strict supervision.

Shang Ke was still receiving treatment when Yonis arrived at the heavily guarded hospital. Through the monitoring glass, Yonis saw a young man lying on the operating table, his naked back gruesome and bloody.

There were countless bruises on his arm, but the most obvious was the long scar on his waist. If Yonis wasn't mistaken, that should be the scar Zeder received after his father nearly beat him to death when he was ten. After all these years, it still looked so ferocious, showing how badly hurt he was.

Yonis had watched the image of him working in the shopping mall and instinctively felt a slight rejection to him. But now that he could see him for himself, the pity and pain he felt for him rushed out from within his heart.

After the doctor treated Shang Ke's wounds, they sent him to the monitoring ward.

Yonis came to the bed, bent over, and brushed away the hair that had fallen over his forehead. A delicate side profile immediately came into view. Compared to the red-haired youth in the video, this was a completely different person. If they had not extracted the photo on his identity card, people would never have linked the two of them together. One was dark and gloomy, while the other was serene and clean... why was there such a huge difference?

Yonis released his spirit guide, the Golden Lion, Moloc.

Moloc lightly jumped to the other side of the bed and sniffed around Shang Ke's neck.

After a while, a small pale blue head poked out from Shang Ke's arms, looked left and right, before shrinking back.

When Moloc saw Waves disappear, he felt unwilling and tugged at Shang Ke. Shang Ke seemed to have felt the oddity as his eyelashes quivered, and slowly, his eyes opened. Blue eyes shrouded in a layer of fog revealed a misty and soft charm, and suddenly, his plain and elegant face brightened up by the brilliant color.

In his daze, Shang Ke saw a figure beside the bed and said a little coquettishly, "Stop it, let me sleep a little longer..." Then, he buried his head in the soft pillow.

He thought Yonis was Tylor, and that he was still in the last world.

Hearing this voice, Yonis felt strangely sweet and soft, like he'd just eaten a piece of chocolate.

It's him, a guide that belonged to him! There was a flash of splendor in Yonis' eyes...

When the anesthetic effect subsided, Shang Ke slowly woke up from his lethargy. After going through the doctor's general examination, several solemn officers entered the ward, one after another.
