Lost and Found: Return of My Mysterious Fiancee by KIKI

Chapter 383: Successfully Rescuing Infants

Gunshots rang out in the laboratory, but the X Bureau was well-prepared. The GTO personnel inside were caught

off guard, especially since their leader had already fled. Naturally, they faced a spectacular defeat.

Tina continued to watch the screen, her fingers flying over the keyboard. "The left side isn't a dead end. Pursue

them," she directed. She was analyzing the terrain, switching to real-tmode and connecting to an infrared

imaging device to maximize the chances of tracking Jasper's escape route.

Despite Jared's thorough preparations, there were too many infants here, and manpower was inevitably

insufficient. Jasper was very familiar with the place; if he had pre-planned his escape route, it would be difficult

to catch him. Suddenly, Tina saw a flash on the screen. "Uncle, be careful, there's a bomb!" she warned.

With a loud bang, an explosion occurred 800 meters from the laboratory entrance. The thermal imager

immediately malfunctioned, leaving only flickering red dots on the screen. Tina cursed, shut down the computer,

and rushed towards the explosion site.

"Uncle! Unc-"

"Tina," Jared called out as he crawled out from the ashes, holding Nathan Lehman in one hand and Hayden in the

other. "I'm fine. Check on them."

Hayden groaned, "Serena, my arm is broken."

Nathan Lehman also pointed to his left hand. "Mine too."

Tina sighed in relief and quickly picked up sscattered wooden boards to splint their broken arms. "This will

do for now; we'll treat it properly later. It's not a big issue."

She looked up at Jared, who was staring at the ruins with a severe expression and eyes like blades. Tina

understood Jared's feelings-they had almost caught Jasper. Who would have thought there'd be a new type of

bomb buried here that even their detectors couldn't pick up? If Tina hadn't switched to real-tmap detection

just now, it wouldn't have been just two broken arms; they might not even have intact bodies.

Tina stepped forward and placed a hand on Jared's shoulder. "Uncle, let's go back."

Jared nodded. Jasper was considered one of GTO's top three leaders; he wouldn't be easily captured.

"Captain, all missing infants have been found. Two are in critical condition; please... help us, Captain's wife," a

team member reported.

Tina froze for a moment-Captain's wife! She turned around to see everyone except Hayden looking at her. Oh

right, she was the wife! But don't call her that-they were just engaged!

Hayden kicked the reporting team member from his seat on a rock. "What Captain's wife? Did | agree to that?

Call her that again and I'll break your teeth!"

The team member ignored Hayden and looked at Tina instead. "Ma'am, there's no time."

Tina snapped back to reality and patted her subordinate's shoulder. "CallTina next time." She then hurried to

the laboratory; twas life and couldn't be wasted.

Jared dusted himself off and told the team member, "Hayden's bonus is yours this time."

"Thank you, Captain! Thank you, Ma'am!" The team member was overjoyed and even thanked Hayden.

Hayden wanted to clench his fist but winced in pain instead. Jared, you're heartless! Of course, he didn't dare say

that out loud.

Just then, Jared's phone rang. He glanced at the caller ID, his deep eyes narrowing before answering it. After

listening for a moment, he replied in a low voice, "I understand." He hung up and told Tina, "Lily was released

three hours ago." He didn't last even a day.

Tina's eyes narrowed as she let out a cold laugh. "Their reach is quite impressive."

Jared's face darkened but he said nothing.

"At least we saved these children," Tina said gently. "We can deal with that person later." She could tell Jared

wasn't in a good mood-as someone responsible for national security, having someone meddle under his nose

was infuriating. Jared smiled slightly at her words. "Alright, one step at a time."

Inside the laboratory, the condition of the two critically ill infants was indeed dire. Not only them but other

children as well had been injected with a new type of sedative by GTO personnel to ensure normal physical

growth without crying or fussing-just so they could use them for human experiments later on.

This sedative could damage their brains severely enough to cause brain death in serious cases. The two critically

ill children had already been cut open; their underdeveloped hearts had been partially removed. Tina's eyes

locked onto them with fury on her cold face-GTO intended to use children's hearts for virus experiments! These

people were truly heartless!

She administered antidotes for the sedatives to each child except for those whose hearts were partially removed

and sent them all to the police station to await their parents’ arrival.

This incident becnational news but omitted any mention of X Bureau's involvement.

In an apartment in Ashbury, Wraith conducted a full-body check on Jasper and found nothing wrong-not even an

ulcer!

"You're not poisoned! Damn it! | got excited for nothing!" Wraith cursed before storming off.

Jasper didn't stop him; he had only used Wraith's reputation as Ghost Doctor to lure him here for Lily's sake. Now

that Lily was cured and he himself wasn't poisoned either-there was no reason for Wraith to stay. After Wraith left

without a trace, Lily cautiously emerged from her room-she feared Wraith might poison her accidentally if they

shared space.

"Father," Lily approached Jasper timidly but stopped short of speaking further.

Jasper had grown tired of Willow clinging to him constantly and now felt equally annoyed with Lily-even though

she still had her uses otherwise who would bother saving her? Even if Lily was his biological daughter-who cares

about something not hard-earned?

"Speak!"

Lily shrank back slightly but began applying ointment on Jasper's injuries anyway-Wraith only checked if Jasper

was poisoned but didn't treat his wounds from escaping earlier.

"| just think that if we had Wraith's help with your mission things might go smoother-why can't we include him?

You're so powerful now; he stands alone against you," she suggested cautiously while tending his wounds. Jasper

sneered coldly: "If | forced him earlier-you'd be looking at nothing but bones right now."
