Chapter 327: Chapter327-Victor's Condition
"How is he doing now?" John asked.
Upon seeing John, Silver Tear exhaled in relief and then glanced inside.
"He's still being treated inside. You were really harsh earlier; even though his meridians have been reconnected, his complexion is still very pale."
"I asked the doctors, and they said he needs proper rest now. It might take a month or two for him to fully recover."
John could not help but hear the hint of blame in Silver Tear's voice, but he could only sigh.
At that moment, he truly had no other choice if he wanted to save Victor.
"If it's just anemia, he should be fine after some recovery, but it's uncertain whether his limbs will fully regain their function," said Dark Fox, who was also quite concerned.
They weren't really blaming John; they were just worried about their captain's future life.
The captain was a strong-willed person, and if he found out what had happened, he might feel distant from John.
They absolutely did not want to see such a situation arise, as both the captain and John were dear friends to them.
John looked over at Victor, whose mood seemed very bleak.
Victor had a keen sense of smell, and the moment John appeared, he had already turned his head to look in his direction.
Victor's eyes were still filled with a predatory glare, as if a hunter eyeing his prey.
"We've been here all this time, and the captain completely ignored us. It was only after you arrived that he reacted like this," Silver Tear said, her expression filled with disappointment.
This meant that the captain no longer recognized them; he was identifying people solely by their scent.
John clenched his teeth and shook his head slightly, then gestured for them to follow him back to his room.
Both were stunned, hesitated for a moment, and then followed John back to his suite.
"What's going on? Is there something you can only say here, that can't be said outside?"
Silver Tear asked immediately after they returned to the room, and John couldn't help but give a wry smile.
"I just met with the owner of Rose Hotel. This matter is indeed related to the Immortality Organization."
Upon hearing this, both of them were taken aback.
"How do you know? Did that owner tell you? Can we trust what he says?"
Silver Tear was immediately skeptical, given the bizarre events they had experienced today.
The three exchanged wary glances and heightened their alertness.
Without any hesitation this time, John went straight to the door.
He opened it swiftly and saw Jasminette standing outside.
There was a faint red mark on Jasminette's neck, as if she had just been choked, but her smile was still as gentle and sweet as ever.
"This is something the master asked me to bring to you, saying you would definitely need it," she said.

John looked puzzled at the item in his hand—a slip of paper.
He took it and read the few words written on it, then chuckled lightly.
"So your master knew what I wanted, and sent you to deliver it?"
Jasminette gave a slight smile and nodded.
"Yes, that's correct. Whatever you need, the master can certainly fulfill your request; all it takes is your indication of willingness."
Silver Tear and Dark Fox frowned slightly upon hearing this in the room.
"Then tell your master, I know what he wants," John declared his stance.
Jasminette simply smiled, nodded, and then turned to leave.
When John returned to the room, he was met with the puzzled faces of the other two.
"What's wrong? What does it say?"
John shook his head; he hadn't looked yet.
Now, opening the paper, he couldn't help but sigh as he read the contents.
"It seems he has indeed been keeping an eye on us all along; he also knows what we want."
Both were surprised, drawing a sharp breath when they saw the contents of the note.
It contained just two words: Underground City.
Although they were unclear about the entire backstory, connecting it with the earlier conversation, they immediately realized its significance.
This was a clue for them.
