James was deeply absorbed in his thoughts.

He was processing the information Gloom had shared about the Gu raisers that existed a hundred years ago.

‘They wanted to control the world with Gus?’

Quincy’s voice startled him. He raised his head and glanced at Quincy standing at the ward door. “How did you not even make a sound? Are you trying to scare me to death?

“Where did you go?” Quincy looked at him suspiciously and walked out of the ward to scan the surroundings. Seeing no one outside, she walked back into the ward with her arms folded.

“It’s already so late. Who did you sneak out to see?” asked Quincy.

James yawned. Then, he walked to the hospital bed and muttered, “I’ve slept so long and felt a little stuffy, so I went for a walk.”

“Is that so?”

Quincy looked at him in disbelief.

James lay down and nodded. “Of course, what else could it be?”

“Fine.”

Quincy refrained from asking any more questions. However, she could sense that James had a secret meeting with someone.
