I Have Infinite Skill Points

"This dog is very smart, and it played an indispensable role in rescuing Xu Dongdong this time. Shouldn't we take care of it?"

"Qi, take the Golden Retriever back to the police car. We'll take it with us later."

Wang Lan and the others arrived at the emergency department, where the guards waiting there promptly stood up and saluted.

"How is Xu Dongdong's condition?"

"Very critical, but we've requested the best doctors to attempt resuscitation. The doctor said that the main issue isn't the physical damage, but rather the psychological harm. Xu Dongdong's nails and teeth have been violently pulled out."

"Her hair was violently plucked out, and her body has several wounds that were also rubbed with salt and chili pepper. The bastard who did this is an animal to be able to harm her so cruelly."

"The animal who did this has already been slaughtered. Did the doctor say when the resuscitation will be done? When will Xu Dongdong regain consciousness?"

"This... I asked the doctor to do it as soon as possible."

"BANG—" The doors to the operating room suddenly opened, and a young doctor in white came out, wiping sweat from his brow. Right after, a hospital bed was pushed out from the operating room.

"Doctor, how is she? Xu Dongdong, is she..."

"You're the guards, right?"

"Yes!" Hu Qing promptly nodded, taking out his credentials.

"It's good you're the guards. Whoever did this to Miss Xu Dongdong was very professional, an expert in torture, causing maximum pain with minimal physical injury. This is the distinct hallmark of Holy War International Security Company. The person who tortured Miss Xu Dongdong must have been trained there."

At these words, Hu Qing and the others looked at the young doctor with an unusual gaze.

"Don't make wild guesses. I was also a soldier in the past. Of course, the code number of the unit I was in is a secret and I can't tell you."

"027, right?" Xu Shiyun suddenly smiled, extended her fist, and tapped it downwards.

The young doctor instinctively raised his hand, meeting Xu Shiyun's fist. The movement was so skilled and natural, as if it were instinct.

"You're also..." the young doctor asked in surprise.

"No! But I do know your number one Pack Leader. No wonder you could do it so quickly; you completed the wound treatment, suturing, and bandaging in just ten minutes."

"On the battlefield, time is life."

"How is Xu Dongdong?"

"After the treatment, her life is not in danger, but not just anyone can endure the interrogation methods of Holy War. Untrained individuals could go mad within an hour. Xu Dongdong's condition is not very optimistic."

"The anesthesia will wear off in half an hour, so we'll have to wait another half an hour to see how she is."

Xu Dongdong was sent to the intensive care ward, and Wang Lan and the others waited inside. Time ticked by, and Hu Qing periodically checked his phone, making a call every few minutes.

The young doctor's prediction was very accurate. About twenty-five minutes later, Xu Dongdong indeed started showing signs of waking up. Then, several nurses quickly and professionally attended to Xu Dongdong as she stirred.

"Dongdong... Xu Dongdong..."

Although Xu Dongdong opened her eyes, her gaze was hollow. After about ten minutes, her eyes suddenly showed terror, and her body began to shake violently as though she had been electrocuted.

"No... don't... I don't know... I really don't know... please... I don't know... don't know..."

"Xu Dongdong, we are doctors. You are safe now... don't be afraid..."

"I don't know... I don't know... don't ask me... I don't know..."

"Dongdong... Dongdong... we are doctors..."

But no matter how the nurses comforted her, Xu Dongdong's body continued to shake violently, gripped by a fear that seemed to have permeated her very soul.

"Quick, a sedative!"

The doctor hurriedly administered a sedative to Xu Dongdong to calm her down.

"I don't know... really... I don't know..."

"Peter... my Peter..."

"Please save me... I'm so scared... Dad... Mom... where are you... SOB... Husband... Husband... I'm going to die... SOB..."

Gripped by utter fear, even after being injected with the sedative, Xu Dongdong's body continued to tremble violently.

"Peter?" Wang Lan's eyes flickered. "Hu Qing, bring the Golden Retriever here."

"Okay." Hu Qing promptly dialed the phone. "Qi, bring the Golden Retriever here, emergency department, third-floor ward."

"Wang Lan, why do you want the dog brought here?"

"When I was rescuing Xu Dongdong, the Golden Retriever first went outside the warehouse. It barked furiously at the warehouse, and as its owner, Xu Dongdong would undoubtedly recognize it as her own dog's bark."

"In her utter despair, the barking of the Golden Retriever was like a Life Potion injected into Xu Dongdong's heart. That's why she unconsciously called out for Peter. If we bring the Golden Retriever here, it might be the key to unlocking Xu Dongdong's mind."

Soon, Qi led the Golden Retriever in. The dog was brought into the ward and immediately set its eyes on Xu Dongdong, who was shivering at the head of the bed. Even though Xu Dongdong was wrapped up like a mummy at this moment, the Golden Retriever recognized its owner instantly.

It jumped onto the bed and began licking its owner's face.

"Peter... my Peter..." Xu Dongdong held the Golden Retriever tightly, burying her face in its fur.

"Miss Xu, we are the guards. It was Peter who led us to save you. You're safe now..."

"I'm saved... Am I really saved? SOB... Why did you... why did you take so long to come!"

Suddenly, Xu Dongdong lifted her head and let out a heart-wrenching howl to the sky—

"My dad and mom... they were all killed by them... I didn't know... the things my little brother stole... how could I have known..."

"What were they looking for?"

"I don't know... I really haven't seen any Evolution Potion..."

"Evolution Potion?"

Wang Lan's eyes narrowed, his heart pounding. Beside him, Xu Shiyun's expression also changed dramatically, her gaze instantly meeting Wang Lan's.

"Demonic Transformation Potion?"

"It must be!"

"WOOF—"

The Golden Retriever, lying on Xu Dongdong, suddenly barked loudly and jumped down from the bed. "WOOF—"

It barked at Wang Lan and then walked out of the hospital room.

Is it asking me to follow? Wang Lan immediately understood and hurriedly turned to chase after the Golden Retriever.

Once the Golden Retriever left the room, it sprinted off, with Wang Lan hastily following. The dog's athletic ability was far too developed; as a Star Martial Warrior, Wang Lan definitely couldn't keep up without using Star Martial Skills.

The Golden Retriever bolted out of the hospital, then sprinted along the city road. A few elderly men out for a stroll only felt a gust of wind rush past them.

"What was that just now? Looked like a dog?"

"That was indeed a dog..."

WHOOSH, Wang Lan's figure instantly surged past them, chasing after the distant Golden Retriever.

"Do they walk dogs like that now? It's a good thing I keep a turtle. If I had to walk a dog like that, my old bones would surely fall apart." Saying this, he looked down at the palm-sized Brazilian turtle at his feet. "Alright, slowpoke, another hundred steps."

The Brazilian turtle looked up at the old man with a face of despair, then simply flipped over, legs in the air, pretending to be dead.

The Golden Retriever's stamina was better than Wang Lan had expected. It sprinted full-speed the whole way, covering seven or eight kilometers without stopping. Watching the direction the Golden Retriever was heading, Wang Lan's eyes flashed with insight.

It was obviously heading towards Xu Qingshan's home.

Xu Qingshan lived in the countryside, while his daughter and son-in-law lived in the city. The distance between their homes was less than ten kilometers.

"WOOF WOOF—"

The cordon at Xu Qingshan's home had not yet been lifted. Many police officers were still searching for clues at Xu Qingshan's place. Suddenly, frantic barking erupted, and a streak of golden light charged from afar.

Just as the guards were about to stop it, Wang Lan's figure appeared instantly in front of them.

"Wait!"

The Golden Retriever entered the yard and started sniffing around in the vegetable garden. Before long, it began to dig furiously, and soon it had dug a hole.

"WOOF WOOF—"

The Golden Retriever barked twice at Wang Lan.

Wang Lan approached and saw several bones hidden in the pit, as well as a black cloth bag. He hesitantly picked up the bag, hearing a clanking noise from inside. Wang Lan quickly reached in and indeed pulled out two bottles of blue potion.

Seeing the potions, everything became clear to Wang Lan.

Why was Xu Donghai killed? He had stolen the Demonic Transformation Potion. Unexpectedly, the Golden Retriever had taken it and hidden it away like a bone.

Since the dog stole it, Xu Donghai's family naturally didn't know. Moreover, who could have thought that the thief would be a dog?

"RING RING RING—"

"Hello!" Wang Lan picked up his phone to answer.

"Wang Lan, I've almost finished my questioning here. It's definitely the Demonic Transformation Potion. The people who kidnapped Xu Dongdong were asking about the whereabouts of the Demonic Transformation Potion, which was stolen by Xu Donghai."

"But the killer's statement is that Xu Donghai had brought the Demonic Transformation Potion home, and it vanished in the blink of an eye. They suspected a family member had taken it, or something of that sort. It was for exactly this reason that Xu Qingshan and his wife were kidnapped."

"The killer had already questioned Xu Qingshan and his wife before interrogating Xu Dongdong, and Xu Dongdong had seen a video of her parents being brutally murdered. Hu Qing has already ordered his men to search the scene of Xu Qingshan and his wife's murder."

"I've found the Demonic Transformation Potion here as well," Wang Lan said after listening.

"Hmm... Wait, you found the Demonic Transformation Potion? How did you find it?" Xu Shiyun suddenly exclaimed. The killer had gone to such lengths, killing and interrogating, yet failed to find it, and Wang Lan found it in less than half an hour?

"Yes, you would never guess that the thief was this Golden Retriever. The Golden Retriever may have a bit of a spirit beast trait. It instinctively sensed the power of the Demonic Transformation Potion, so it stole it and buried it in the yard."

"When we were asking about the potion in the hospital, the Golden Retriever might have understood what we were looking for and led me to Xu Qingshan's yard, where it dug up the Demonic Transformation Potion from the vegetable garden—a total of two bottles."

"I can't believe it!" The information Wang Lan provided left Xu Shiyun incredulous. What was this? A bloodbath triggered by a dog? Then, Xu Shiyun's subdued voice came through the phone.

"Now, we need to figure out whether these two bottles of Demonic Transformation Potion were produced before the potion production workshop was destroyed, or after."

"So, for now, we need to know where Xu Donghai stole the potions from."

"Leave it to me," Xu Shiyun said without hesitation.

"Let's do it together. I've taken leave for a few days. I can't miss a case like this."

"Alright."

Finding Demon Clan spies meant a massive amount of experience points, and experience points were what Wang Lan currently lacked the most.
