Long Island, New York.

In the largest funeral home in town.

Ted fell to the ground in a daze.

On the mortuary bed in front of him, a white cloth covered most of his figure, revealing only a pale face with a 5 cm wound that had just been sutured on the left side of his forehead.

Who is it if not Ted's perfect girlfriend, Anna Taylor?

Beside Ted was Matthew with a sad face, and Lily who was crying.

Adam is coming right now.

Lily hung up the phone and said to Matthew while looking at Ted.

But Ted didn't respond.

A tall middle-aged man who had been standing silently next to him, his eyes flashed, and his expressionless face immediately became gentle and amiable. He looked at Lily: Is it Dr. Adam Duncan?

Ok.

Lily wiped her tears and looked at the middle-aged man: Do you know Adam?

Ok.

The tall middle-aged man nodded: We have met several times.

He was the Elliot Deacon that Adam had known.

Oh, yes.

Lily wiped her tears and said, I heard from Adam that Monica's house is here, and her grandmother's funeral should be held here.

right.

Mr. Deacon nodded and glanced at Lily: Is Dr. Duncan coming?

certainly.

Lily looked worriedly at Ted, who was sitting on the ground without any response: Adam is a good friend of ours, of course he will come over at this time, but it's a pity that no one informed him when the car accident happened last night, otherwise he would have been given the advice of Doctor Miracle. Nickname, rush to the scene, perhaps such a thing will not happen.

Doctor Miracle?

Mr. Deacon winced.

Ok.

Lily cried again: Although Adam is young, he has amazing medical talent. He created many miracles when he first entered the medical center. Many people who were supposed to be dead were brought back to life with his persistence and hard work. come over.

Woo!

Why didn't anyone notify him last night!

No matter how miraculous, after one night, it was already completely cold.

It's really a pity. I'm sorry. I still have something to do. Please stay with me.

Mr. Deacon sighed, talked to Lily, nodded to the three of them, and walked out of the morgue slowly.

As soon as he went out, his face changed completely, from gentle and amiable to expressionless in an instant.

He walked quickly up to the attic and opened a cabinet door.

Inside is a wall.

There is a dense photo album hanging on the wall.

At first glance, they are the last pictures of the deceased.

But upon closer inspection, many of the deceased's eyes were open.

It is said that the eyes of the deceased have lost their light.

But these opened eyes clearly still have light.

Are you happy?

Mr. Deacon looked at the dense collection of photos and said to himself, Doctor Miracle... let's see.

While talking, he put away all these photos.

Then I started packing and cleaning the room.

After everything was done, he took the bag down and put it on the passenger seat of the car.

At this time.

A sports car approached quickly, made an emergency stop, and stopped firmly in the driveway.

Adam got out of the car.

Doctor Duncan.

Mr. Deacon closed the passenger seat and greeted Adam with a natural expression.

Mr. Deacon.

Adam was not surprised.

On the way here, he had already thought of this matter.

Anna and Grandma Monica both live in this area, and Mr. Deacon's funeral home is the largest funeral home nearby, so it's normal for them to handle burial matters here.

If there is no accident, after Sheldon's aunt Beatis died of illness, most of the encoffining, funeral, and burial were carried out here.

Where are Ted and the others?

follow me.

Mr. Deacon gestured with his hand and led Adam to the underground morgue.

Adam!

When Lily saw Adam coming in, she rushed over crying immediately.

Adam sighed, put his arms around Lily, patted her on the back, said a few words of comfort, pushed her away, walked towards Ted, took a look, and gave Matthew a 'no problem' expression.

Then, he walked to the mortuary bed and looked at Anna who died young unexpectedly.

It was a pale face.

Adam glanced at it, his heart moved, and while reaching out to touch Anna's neck, he casually asked, Where's the death report? Can I have a look?

It's up there, I'll get it.

Mr. Deacon glanced at Adam, but did not move immediately.

Adam let go of the hand on Anna's neck, walked in front of Lily and the others calmly, blocked Lily and the others, and looked at Mr. Deacon.

Lily hadn't noticed anything yet, but Matthew's expression changed.

Mr. Deacon smiled and turned away.

Kate, bring someone here immediately...

Adam called Kate immediately and quickly explained the problems he found.

I'll come right over! Be safe!

On the other end of the phone, Kate yelled and hung up.

Adam, what's the situation? Why did you call the police?

Is there really something wrong with this undertaker?

Lily and Matthew were shocked.

Anna didn't die. She was injected with an anesthetic and fell into a state of suspended animation.

Adam looked at the door vigilantly: It's been such a long time since last night, it's impossible for the embalmer to not have discovered this problem, and the injection needle hole on Anna's neck was just injected not long ago.

what!

Lily screamed suddenly.

What? Anna isn't dead?

Sitting on the ground, Ted, who had been unresponsive for a long time, cried out belatedly, and got up directly from the ground.

not dead.

Adam nodded and said, When the effect of the anesthetic passes, she will wake up.

So what should we do now?

Matthew asked, Waiting for the police to come?

He's gone.

Adam has been paying attention to the movement outside, and when he heard the sound of the car driving away, he immediately ran to the window and looked outside, just in time to see Mr. Deacon driving outside, turning the car around, and Adam and Adam looked at each other again, Eyes full of indifference and expressionlessness.

This is what he really is.

Okay, I will help you contact the hospital.

Adam made a quick confession, and ran out of the funeral home: You guys wait here, I'll go after him.

The reason why he didn't take down the opponent immediately was not because he was in awe of the strength of the opponent's God of War.

In front of him as a jerk, any god of war would go into the kennel by himself.

What Adam is worried about is that he has a gun on his body, and Lily and the others are all around. If one is not good, it will be a tragedy.

So Adam would rather let him go first.

As for why he let him go and chased after him.

That's because Adam had already offended the other party, and knowing that the other party was a cruel and extremely dangerous person, he naturally couldn't let the other party get away with it.

Regardless of whether the other party will retaliate or not, it is necessary to eliminate the threat in advance!

So he notified Kate.

As a policeman, or a high-level policeman, as long as Mr. Deacon dares to resist, it is completely reasonable and legal for Kate to kill him.

All Adam had to do was keep an eye on Mr. Deacon and prevent him from escaping.

With his driving skills and sports car performance, this possibility is almost impossible.

It's just a pity that Adam's good relationship with Dr. Montgomery, and Dr. Montgomery's damned love at first sight, was a pity.

Dr. Montgomery was really lucky.

Just now, she decided to escape from the two most important men in the first half of her life, thinking that she would meet her only love and soul mate in the second half of her life, but she didn't expect that the other party was a cruel criminal.

Kate, where are you? He ran away, I'm following him now, understand, I won't get close to him, hurry up.

Adam drove, hanging not too far behind Mr. Deacon's car.
