#60 - An invitation from the dark
After a week of hospital treatment, Lin Wuming was once again discharged.
Similar to his last discharge, Lin Wuming's fracture had not fully healed this time either, and he needed to continue resting and recovering at home.
The recovery location was naturally still in the apartment of his guardian, Huangquanchuan Aihui.
Because the hospital was a public place after all, with a large area and a constant flow of people, the security forces spent a lot of manpower and resources to protect and watch over Lin Wuming alone.
Over time, even the wealthy security forces couldn't bear it.
Therefore, being discharged early and returning to the security forces' dedicated apartment building, Family Side, was a more efficient and cost-effective way to watch over and care for him.
Before being discharged, the frog doctor, Medusa Necromancer, personally gave Lin Wuming another examination.
"Don't forget what I said, take good care of your body, young man." Medusa Necromancer warned, "If you fracture your limbs again, it would be better to just replace them with mechanical prosthetics!"
After another half-scare, half-admonishment warning, Medusa Necromancer signed and left.
The nurse also packed up the medical supplies and left, leaving only Lin Wuming and Hubachi Tomitsu, who had come to help, in the ward.
"Is there any luggage you need to take?" Hubachi Tomitsu sat on the bed next to him, watching Lin Wuming use his Nen ability to pack his belongings with some boredom.
To be honest, she felt that her act of "helping" was completely meaningless, after all, Lin Wuming, who had Nen abilities, could do everything himself.
"Thank you, there's nothing else." Lin Wuming shrugged and asked, "By the way, where's Teacher Huangquanchuan? Why hasn't she come yet?"
"She said she had something to do and would be a little late."
Lin Wuming curled his lips: "Then let's wait for her..."
Discharge was not a return to freedom. Lin Wuming was still under semi-restricted surveillance. In theory, he could not move freely at will, and he had to be accompanied by a guardian to go anywhere.
Even "going home" had to be personally "escorted" by Huangquanchuan Aihui.
"So slow, Teacher Huangquanchuan is usually very punctual, what's wrong today?" Hubachi Tomitsu also complained, "Could it be a big traffic jam?"
"Who knows," Lin Wuming said calmly, "She's a security guard after all, it's not surprising that she occasionally has an urgent mission. It doesn't matter if we wait a little longer."
Just then, someone knocked on the door.
Without waiting for Lin Wuming to respond, the person outside pushed the door open and entered.
Hubachi Tomitsu turned to look and immediately raised her hand to stroke the ribbon on her ponytail.
Standing at the door were three adult men wearing black suits and sunglasses, they were strangers.
"Excuse me, Lin Wuming, Hubachi Tomitsu." The black-suited man standing in the middle said, his tone calm, unhurried, and with a friendly smile on his face.
One should not hit a smiling face, the visitor was very polite, and even Hubachi Tomitsu did not show hostility towards him for a while.
"Please." The black-suited man nodded to his two companions, then stepped into the ward, "Sorry for the intrusion, students."
The two black-suited men stood at the door like guards and did not come in.
Closing the door casually, the black-suited man spoke again: "Sorry for the intrusion, thank you very much for listening to me."
"Who are you? What are you here for?" Hubachi Tomitsu stepped forward, blocking Lin Wuming.
"Time is limited, I'll get straight to the point." The black-suited man was also straightforward, "Lin Wuming, Hubachi Tomitsu, I'm here to invite you to join the Dark Department organization."
After a slight pause, as if to be on the safe side, he added, "You know about the 'Dark Department organization', right?"
"Of course, I know." Hubachi Tomitsu said, "One of the enemies who attacked Wuming last time was a member of a Dark Department organization called 'Hunter'."
"..." Slightly embarrassed, but the black-suited man continued without changing his expression, "There are various types and styles of Dark Departments, generally speaking, they are relatively free. Unless required by the mission, the higher-ups will not impose too many restrictions on the Dark Department organization."
"Hunter" was an individual case acting privately and could not represent the Dark Department organization as a whole - the black-suited man explained slightly.
"You mean," Lin Wuming took over the topic, "you want me to join the Dark Department?"
"It's both of you." The black-suited man corrected slightly, "Although the security forces have blocked the news to the outside world, it is not difficult for us to find out the truth."
"To be honest, the reputation of you two 'Male and Female Fiends' is quite famous in our circle." Without waiting for Hubachi Tomitsu to get angry, he continued, "Similarly, I can also access your case files - in fact, Lin Wuming, the final verdict of your case has not yet been decided."
Lin Wuming asked, "So, my case is in trouble?"
"You need to know that the security forces are a very persistent organization when it comes to justice," the black-suited man said, "They even stubbornly adhere to procedural justice and strictly follow the law and various regulations."
"For the entire society, this is not a bad thing," Lin Wuming said.
"So your case has not been resolved yet." The black-suited man was responsible for recruiting talents for the Dark Department organization all year round, and he had seen all kinds of people, so he didn't find anything strange about Lin Wuming's precocious personality.
No need to coax, just talk directly with this type of negotiation target.
"The Dark Department organization doesn't mind whether you have killed people or not," the black-suited man looked at the time and said directly, "On the contrary, the Dark Department organization's mission requires killing. Join the Dark Department organization, and the past will be wiped clean. Even the security forces cannot refuse this request."
Hubachi Tomitsu frowned and asked, "So, the Dark Department is an organization that can legally do illegal things?"
Killing in accordance with the rules... Although Hubachi Tomitsu never showed mercy when she should strike, she hated this kind of thing.
After all, the greatest act of killing allowed under the rules is war - the nightmare that Hubachi Tomitsu had finally escaped.
"To be precise," the black-suited man corrected, "it is killing 'outside the rules'. We are not the opposite of rules and order, on the contrary, the Dark Department is a supplement to order and rules. The security forces probably won't admit it, but in fact, we are allies in the same camp, like two sides of a coin, interdependent and indispensable."
To strengthen his persuasion, he also took out a coin from his pocket and showed it to the two.
"Lin Wuming, please rest assured, everything I do, and the existence of the Dark Department organization, is in accordance with the rules in the final analysis."
Before coming to persuade them, the black-suited man had done sufficient homework.
