At a villa in Chunjiang.
In a completely sealed dark room, Duan Jiu lay motionless on the bed, stark naked.
At the foot of the bed, Zhao Bin, with a gloomy face, glanced at a black-clothed man beside him. The man gave a slight nod, pulled out a small syringe from his clothing, and approached the bed.
The syringe contained about 2ml of yellow-brown liquid. The man injected the needle into Duan Jiu's arm and then pushed all the fluid within into Duan Jiu's body. After completing the task, he swiftly retreated to Zhao Bin's side and observed Duan Jiu's bodily reaction carefully.
About five or six seconds later, Duan Jiu's body suddenly shook, followed by another tremor. The frequency and amplitude of the shaking increased rapidly, and if not for his hands and feet being securely fastened by sturdy iron cuffs, he might have jumped off the bed.
