The Underworld's Sacred Guardian Chapter 8

The breeze blew on his face. Gabriel Xu was drinking milk tea on the balcony, sitting on the swing chair and swinging happily in the night.

Cicadas were chirping everywhere, and the breeze was blowing in the garden behind him. The ripples sounded like the singing of the wind. Gabriel Xu was humming a little tune, feeling so comfortable.

I had just come out of the shower, the heat from my body was gradually dissipating, and goose bumps appeared between my legs.

Dominic Fu approached silently and brought a blanket to cover him.

"Your health is not good to begin with. Don't always go barefoot. Otherwise, you will be prone to rheumatism when you get older." Dominic Fu asked with a slightly doting tone. Gabriel Xu looked up, chewed the pearls in his mouth and smiled at him.

Dominic Fu was startled, and the figures in his mind overlapped again. He slowly squatted down and wrapped his legs with a blanket, which made him look even more bloated in the night.

Gabriel Xu was also very obedient and let Dominic Fu play with him. He squatted down with his tall body, and the moonlight imprinted his outline on the floor.

Gabriel Xu took advantage of the shadow to gently K!ss Dominic Fu on the forehead, and felt ecstatic after succeeding.

With a clang, Gabriel Xu was frightened and turned to look inside the house. Arthur Xu hurriedly walked through the living room and slammed the door.

What happened? Gabriel Xu blinked, and their eyes met. The indifference in Dominic Fu's eyes made him feel more at ease.

Arthur Xu ran out in a hurry, drove and looked at the road in front of him. He didn't know if it was because it was too dark, but he always felt that the scene in front of him was foggy.

He stopped what he was doing, put his hands on the steering wheel and didn't start the car. He waited until his emotions were really calm before starting the engine.

In the long and lonely night, the sound of sirens seemed like a destroyer coming to break the tranquility. The police station was bright all night long. Arthur Xu rushed over exhausted. Looking at the handcuffed man, he slapped him twice in anger.

If the police hadn't stopped him, Arthur Xu would have beaten the man in front of him to death today.

The handcuffed man lowered his head, his temples gray, his eyes bloodshot in the light, the only thing he felt as he looked at Arthur Xu was shame.

Being held between two policemen, Arthur Xu, who had been in the business world for many years, shed tears for the first time today.

"Old Zhou, you are confused, why are you doing this!" Arthur Xu really couldn't understand why he did this. Both of them were the most outstanding pharmacists in the field of pharmacy back then, but now he is over fifty years old and he wants to do stupid things and ruin the rest of his life.

Arthur Xu gently covered his chest as the surging breath rushed up to him and he felt dizzy. Lao Zhou kept his head down and didn't say a word. Silent tears dripped on his clothes.

He knew that he was sorry to Arthur Xu, so he simply said nothing.

"The criminal Benedict Zhou has already pleaded guilty. Mr. Victor, the other company has already come up with a compensation policy for your company's losses. Please take a look."

The police were relatively polite. Knowing that both of them were angry, they pulled them into two rooms. Arthur Xu wiped away his tears. He was an old man, yet he was still being pretentious.

He wiped away his tears and looked at the documents handed over by the police. Their new drug was almost successfully developed, but that old B@st@ard Benedict Zhou actually did such a thing.

"Comrade police officer, I have no objection, but I still want to see Benedict Zhou again." Arthur Xu sniffed, still choking a little.

They have been brothers for decades and have experienced so many ups and downs together, but now Benedict Zhou is going to leave him alone.

Seeing that Arthur Xu was in poor condition, the police was a little hesitant, but after Arthur Xu's repeated assurances, the police agreed.

In the dimly lit interrogation room, the light fell on him, and the wrinkles on his face could not be hidden. They were no longer young, and the years were no longer the same as before.

Benedict Zhou looked at his tightly locked hands and couldn't help but sigh. He moved his wrinkled hands. He was almost sixty years old.

He suddenly laughed bitterly, and the policeman opposite him knocked on the table and looked at him seriously.

"Why did you have to sell the doctored prescription to other people?"

The police asked questions, but Benedict Zhou sat there with his head down, biting his fingers. Arthur Xu, who was outside the interrogation room, watched through the glass and felt heartbroken.

Benedict Zhou met his gaze through the glass. He sniffed and said with self-deprecation: "What other reason could there be? Of course it's for money!" The ambition in Benedict Zhou's eyes was seen by the police and Arthur Xu under the light.

He had no remorse at all, and instead looked at the police with a bit more provocation. At this moment, he pretended to be suddenly enlightened, which just proved that he wanted to hide the real secret.

Arthur Xu supported himself on the glass with both hands, staring at Benedict Zhou. He was not that kind of person. He was not. They had been working together for so many years, how could he not know Benedict Zhou's character.

He knocked on the table pretending to be calm and fooled them all. He breathed a sigh of relief and a relieved smile appeared on his face.

He glanced at Xu Qiqi outside the window, and a tear of regret ran down his cheek. "Brother, I can't accompany you with the company's affairs in the future, so take care of yourself!"

Seeing him so calm, the policeman slowly took out a document. Benedict Zhou waited quietly for the trial, but it didn't come, which made him a little nervous.

"According to our investigation, you sold the medicine you made from the prescription to a family. Now everyone in that family except their son is in the ICU."

The police's words set off alarm bells in Benedict Zhou's heart, and his eyes widened. It was this look that was exactly what they wanted, and Benedict Zhou still tried his best to hide his panic.

His breathing became heavy and he stared at a certain spot on the table in a daze, but the policeman was not panicked.

"According to our investigation, the family went to the Third People's Hospital in Jinjiang City for treatment three years ago. They were dissatisfied with the medicine prescribed by the doctor, so they picked up a machete and hacked to death a female doctor named Eloise Zhou. Dr. Zhou was the attending physician of the patient and your daughter."
 
After hearing what the police said, Benedict Zhou felt as if struck by a bolt from the blue. The memories that had been buried were now ripped open and revealed to everyone.

The longing for his daughter surged into his heart again, and the emotions that Benedict Zhou had tried hard to suppress burst out at this moment. Arthur Xu's eyes also turned red. They both went there when Eloise Zhou got into trouble, but the child's life still could not be saved.

Although the two men were punished in the end, Benedict Zhou felt that such punishment was far from enough.

They should all die and be buried with his daughter.
