CHAPTER 132: CHAPTER 132: DRUGGED INSIDE THE TRAIN CAR

The servant’s voice sounded extremely anxious. Ji Wei’s heart sank, and she tried to control the trembling in her voice as she asked, "Which hospital was Grandma sent to?"

"It was the ambulance from Central Hospital. Miss, you should hurry over and take a look!"

At this point, the servant’s voice began to choke up. "You haven’t been back to the Ji Family in days. The old lady often mentions you, worrying whether you’re eating properly, whether your sleep is regular... The old lady truly cares deeply about you, Miss."

Although the servant was not A Xiu, the one usually by Grandma’s side, she often attended to Grandma as well. Hearing these words, Ji Wei couldn’t help but feel her nose sting with emotion. She realized she should visit the Ji Family more often.

Ji Wei paused for a few seconds and then blurted out, "Alright, I’ll head over right now!"

After hanging up, Ji Wei said a few quick words to Ling Ling, who was behind her, and then hurriedly walked toward the front door.

It was now a little past 4 PM, and the project site was in the relatively remote West City District. Ji Wei had expected it would be difficult to hail a taxi, but as she stood by the roadside for a moment, a taxi happened to pass by, and she quickly raised her hand to flag it down.

"Driver, could you please take me to Central Hospital?" Ji Wei opened the car door and got into the back seat.

The driver said nothing, merely nodded slightly, and swiftly started the car.

The cityscape outside the car window receded rapidly. Ji Wei stared blankly out the window, her expression extremely grave. She recalled her previous life, when Grandma had suddenly fallen and suffered a stroke, which eventually left her bedridden.

The palm clutching her phone grew damp with sweat, and her eyes were filled with undisguised worry and urgency.

Because she was lost in her thoughts, Ji Wei didn’t notice that the taxi was gradually veering off the main road.

When she finally realized something was amiss, she was stunned to see that the scenery outside the window had turned into sprawling woods, with only the occasional household flickering by. They were now in a remote rural area of the West City District, not far from the region’s largest natural lake.

"Driver, did you take the wrong route?" Ji Wei asked in astonishment.

The driver seemed to completely ignore her, continuing to drive in silence without responding.

It was only then that Ji Wei suddenly realized—since she’d gotten in the car, the driver hadn’t uttered a single word.

Could the driver be mute?

Confused, she prepared to lean forward and tap the driver’s shoulder. "Driver, you’ve made a mistake! I’m headed to Central Hospital!"

But just as Ji Wei rose slightly, an overwhelming wave of dizziness struck her out of nowhere, forcing her back down into the seat.

When had she started feeling this dizzy? She hadn’t noticed it at all!

Ji Wei frowned and held her forehead. The heavy, spinning sensation made her consciousness gradually fade. She struggled to lift her eyelids, but everything before her seemed to blur and double.

What was going on?

What was happening to her?

Ji Wei reached out, trying to open the window to get some air. But after pressing the button to open the window several times, it didn’t budge.

She discovered that all the windows had been sealed tightly shut. She hadn’t noticed earlier because the air conditioning inside the car had been on.

Now, she detected a suffocating and oppressive scent permeating the air...

Ji Wei was suddenly shocked—someone had scattered knockout gas inside the car!

After the initial shock, Ji Wei bit down hard on her lip, leaving visible marks that almost drew blood.

The sharp pain temporarily made her more alert.

"Stop the car... Stop the car now!" Ji Wei struggled to rise again, reaching for the driver’s arm and shouting urgently.

This time, the driver turned his head and glanced at her.

Ji Wei saw that the driver was wearing a black baseball cap and a black mask, leaving only his eyes visible.

And those eyes glinted with a sinister and menacing light.
