Chapter 37 -37 Mr. Sheng, please restrain your grief
Evening.
On the vast sea where smoke and waves melded together, a ship was slowly sailing.
“How much longer until we arrive?”
As the last glimmer of twilight fell from the horizon, the people inside the ship grew impatient.
He ran to the ship’s bridge and asked.
The captain glanced at the time and replied, “Not so soon, at least six more hours.”
“This long? By that time, those drugged baskets will all be dead, how are we supposed to hand off the goods then?”
Hearing it would take so long, the man cursed and complained.
The captain didn’t respond.
With no reaction, the man had no choice but to walk away, and he then made his way to the lowest level of the ship.
Sure enough, once there, he saw several young women lying in a dimly lit space, hugging their bellies and curled up, shivering in pain from a distance.
“Brother Dao, how is it? Did you ask when we’ll arrive? Where’s the detour point this time? How much longer?”
Someone else came down and, upon seeing the man with the scar on his face standing there, he asked.
Taking the water route from the mainland to Myanmar definitely couldn’t be done in just a few hours; it would take about ten days.
Therefore, every trip, they would find a detour point to change for a plane, as it was safer and faster that way.
But this time, the detour point was clearly much further away.
“First, give them an injection, don’t let them die!”
The scarred man didn’t answer the question, instead noticing the women on the ground clutching their bellies as if they were about to die.
He ordered the injections first.
Seeing this, the person who had come down called over the nurse who was accompanying them on the ship.
“Give them an injection, a stronger dose, especially that one,” he pointed at the one with the particularly large belly.
“Mmm…”
The nurse, wearing a mask, nodded and soon, she began pushing a small cart full of various medical supplies towards the women.
The scarred man, seeing this, left.
However, what the two men didn’t know was that, not long after they left, the nurse in the underground cabin swapped the drugs in her hand for a cardiac stimulant.
“Bear with it.”
She whispered softly to the first woman as she injected the solution into her arm, illuminated by the dim light of the cabin.
Quickly, the woman calmed down.
Then, she proceeded to inject the others with the same solution, one by one.
Until, she came to the woman with the largest belly.
Her stomach was indeed huge, as if it were about to burst from something inside, even her abdomen protruded outward, eliciting an uncomfortable feeling in anyone who saw it.
Furthermore, she was also unsightly.
Her face, thin and yellow, was covered in spots; now she lay there on the ground, blending with the dust and bloodstains.
It made one disinclined to look again.
The nurse crouched in front of her, casting a cold glance before taking a different, light blue syringe from the cart.
That was the real drug!
Furthermore, it was a very high purity type.
“Umm—”
As the sharp needle injected the drug into the woman’s arm, she unexpectedly awoke from her stupor.
“You…”
In an instant, after clearly seeing everything before her eyes, she stared at the petite nurse in front of her with extreme horror.
“How dare you… dare to…”
Before her words were finished, the nurse had cleanly injected the drug into her body.
So, the woman whose eyes were wide open in terror could only helplessly close them again.
“Sleep well. Once you wake up, you’ll be free,” the nurse pulled out the needle.
When she stood up, she glanced at the woman’s face and, despite herself, revealed a hint of pity.
The sea was calm and quiet throughout the night.
At the crack of dawn the next day, as the first rays of sunlight leapt from the sea surface, the people who had been silent all night aboard the ship began to stir with excitement.
“Brother Dao, are we almost there?”
“Yes, get ready!” the man with the scar gave a very affirmative response.
Immediately, the excited underling volunteered to go down to the hold to fetch the person.
“Nurse, come with me to bring up the person.”
“…Oh, okay.”
The nurse, having been woken up, had no choice but to crawl out of her cabin.
Soon, the two made their way to the lower cabin.
“Ah—”
A scream of sheer terror emanated from the cabin.
The scarred man outside heard it and immediately his face changed; he ran inside.
“What are you screaming about? What happened?”
“Brother, it’s… it’s not good, that woman… she’s dead!”

It was completely unexpected that when he came in, the underling would be pointing at a body on the floor, panic-stricken, with the shocking news of a death.
“Ah—”
The drug mule was dead.
And the drugs she carried inside her body would be affected too.
The scarred man’s color drained from his face, and he took an urgent step forward, arriving at the corpse.
She was indeed dead.
The woman who was carrying a large shipment, lay lifeless on the ground, her skin a mottled purple, looking like an expired piece of pork.
A death by drug overdose looked just like this.
“Why is this happening? Didn’t I tell you to give her an injection last night? Why is she still dead? Where’s the nurse? Where’s the nurse?!”
He roared hysterically, searching for the nurse.
The nurse was already so scared that she couldn’t even get up from the floor, and upon hearing she was being sought after, she nearly fainted on the spot.
“Brother Dao, I did as you ordered last night, I… I don’t know why it turned out like this? Could it be something inside her body…”
“Slap!”
Before she could finish her sentence, the scarred man had already slapped her fiercely.
Instantly, the petite and delicate nurse was sent sprawling to the ground, struggling to catch her breath for a long time.
Even her mask had fallen aside.
“You wretch, how dare you shirk responsibility here? I’ll kill you right now!”
A murderous gleam flashed in the eyes of the scarred man as he bent down again, intending to strangle the nurse on the spot!
Finally, the nurse’s expression changed.
Staring at the ground, her glassy eyes shrank in a place where the others couldn’t see, and her hand quietly drew a hair-thin silver needle from her sleeve.
It was a fine needle used in traditional Chinese acupuncture.
Nobody knew that while caring for her child over the years, she had also taught herself the art of Acupuncture Technique, perfecting her skill.
“Brother Dao, something’s wrong, there’s noise outside!”
Just as she was prepared to make a desperate stand, the captain suddenly ran over.
The scarred man stopped abruptly.
“What noise?”
“There’s a helicopter circling over our ship, and I even saw the military waiting at the dock through my binoculars!”
The captain spoke hopelessly from the entrance to the cabin.
The scarred man felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar.
Ten minutes later, when the helicopter circling overhead landed on the deck of the ship, all of the people were already huddled with their heads in their hands on the ground.
“Where is the person?”
The man who stepped down from the helicopter, god-like, relaxed slightly when he saw the scene before his refined and handsome countenance.
But soon, after having searched the ship, the bodyguards returned to him, their expressions grave.
“President, Miss Han… she’s dead!”
