Chapter 587
Wilfred flinched, clearly not wanting to be touched.
This only made Nina more suspicious. “Why are you still bleeding?” she demanded.
His injury had been there for a while. Even if it had not fully healed, it should not still be bleeding unless he had a new wound.
Wilfred tightened his sleeve, but the few drops of blood were hard to ignore. Forcing a smile, he made an excuse. “I cut myself while cooking. It’s nothing serious.”
Nina was not convinced. “You’ve handled surgical tools for years. How could you accidentally cut yourself? You can’t fool me! This doesn’t look like a cooking injury. What really happened?”
Wilfred remained silent.
Seeing his reluctance, Nina took his hand and saw the hastily wrapped bandage around his wrist. It was not well done, likely because he had to do it himself with one hand.
“It’s just a minor injury,” Wilfred said softly. “You’ve seen worse on me. This is nothing.”
He hoped she would drop the topic, but Nina’s suspicions only deepened. “Did you cut yourself?” she asked.
Wilfred hesitated, then pulled his hand away. “Why would you think that?”
Nina responded, “If it was an accident, how did you cut your wrist? Your bandage is too sloppy, and the cut is too clean. It looks self -inflicted, and it must have happened here. A doctor wouldn’t do such a poor job bandaging a wound unless they were using one hand in a hurry, which is why it’s still bleeding.”
Nina’s deductions left Wilfred speechless.
He had underestimated her perceptiveness. When he found her unconscious, he knew only his blood could revive her, so he did not hesitate to cut his wrist. In his rush to care for her, he barely tended to his wound. Ads by PubFuture
Nina pressed on. “Why would you cut yourself?”
Wilfred was cornered. “My blood isn’t ordinary. It has properties that can help you recover faster.”
He was not lying. His blood was highly valuable on the black market, sought after for its healing properties.
Nina was shocked. “Is that really possible?”
Wilfred did not hide his wound any longer. “It’s true. You might be shocked but I’m what’s known as a healer. My blood has medicinal properties.”
Nina struggled to process this. It seemed like something out of a science fiction novel.
She could not help but go online to search for information about healers. After a long search, she discovered the brutal process of their creation.
From a young age, they are fed various herbs and forced to try poisonous plants and drugs, often being bitten by venomous creatures. Just enduring one of these would be enough to kill a person.
The process of becoming a healer was extremely risky and cruel, with very few surviving. S~ᴇaʀᴄh the FindNøvᴇl.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
Such a life was incredibly harsh. Who would even think of cultivating a healer?
Cultivating a healer would require time, effort, and often resulted in death. It was utterly inhumane.
No organization or laboratory would use people as test subjects. This was too dark and unethical.
The only purpose of such cruel experiments would be to exploit him for profit.
Reading about this made Nina furious.
It was a blatant violation of human rights, treating lives as disposable, like experimenting on lab mice.
