Dark Shadow operatives rarely carry the antidote for this kind of self-defense poison when they go on missions. Isabelle got up, pulled out the badge from the fence, and went downstairs to check Jack's condition.
Moon Shadow had already escaped while Isabelle was distracted saving Jack.
The drug took effect quickly, and Isabelle's vision began to blur.
She checked the carotid artery on Jack's neck. He was still alive, but his pulse was weak.
She cut the rope on Jack's wrist and then checked his pulse again. She lightly patted Jack's cheek.
"Jack?"
However, she couldn't wake him up.
She looked around and saw the phone that had been thrown out of her pocket during the fight. Isabelle got up to pick it up.
However, the phone was already broken from the fall and couldn't be used.
She put the phone that wouldn't turn on back into her pocket.
Isabelle's vision completely darkened.
Isabelle stood still for a moment, adjusting to the darkness. Her face showed no sign of panic.
She turned around and found the direction where Jack was lying, then walked towards him.
She counted her steps in her mind and walked about ten meters. Then she crouched down and reached out, successfully finding Jack by touch.
She helped Jack up but didn't know how to get out.
Walking out of the factory building wasn't difficult, but what about after they got out?
-The residents of this slum were starving, and borrowing a phone from them to call Mr. Carter seemed a
bit difficult.
After thinking it over, Isabelle decided that randomly finding someone to help take Jack to the hospital seemed more feasible, although it might be a bit rough. Just then, she heard footsteps approaching.
There was more than one person.
Isabelle couldn't see and had to raise her guard.
She "looked" towards the direction of the door, one hand reaching into her pocket and finding the bloodstained badge.

Shortly after, a voice rang out, "Miss Jenkins?"
The voice sounded familiar.
Isabelle asked, "Jo... sh?"
Josh's half-smiling voice said, "Miss Jenkins, it's really you." He glanced at the several corpses on the ground.
With a hint of goodwill, he asked, "Do you need any help, Miss Jenkins?"
A day later, Jack woke up in the hospital.

Jack endured the pain and tried to sit up, surveying the unfamiliar surroundings. He recalled the scene in the factory.
He was suspended from the ceiling at the time, briefly conscious, and saw Isabelle below, coming to rescue him.
Where's she?
Jack pulled out the IV needle from the back of his hand, pushed aside the blanket, and prepared to get out of bed to find her.
However, he was discovered by the nurse who came to change his bandages. She instructed him to return to bed and insisted on restarting his IV drip.
Jack asked her about Isabelle's whereabouts.
However, they couldn't understand each other due to the language barrier.
The nurse called a doctor over, and they blocked Jack from leaving together.
Feeling anxious, Jack pushed the doctor aside.
The medical staff restrained Jack, who was severely injured.
He shouted angrily, "Get out of my way! Don't stop me!"
Just as the medical staff were at a loss and preparing to sedate the patient, a clear and cold female voice rang out, neither heavy nor light.
"What's all this noise? Don't want your hands anymore?"
Jack instantly quieted down and looked towards the door.
"Quiet down in the hospital," Isabelle's tone lightened considerably.
Jack looked Isabelle up and down, confirming she was all right. He breathed a sigh of relief. As his nerves relaxed, he suddenly felt the unbearable pain from his injuries. With the help of the doctor, he returned
his bed.
After the doctor and nurse left, Isabelle leaned against the door frame and stepped inside.
"Where are those people?" After the recent commotion. Jack's face was pale and swear was heading on his

Isabelle replied, "They're dead."
Jack asked, "How is your brother?"
Isabelle answered, "He's fine."
Úpon hearing that Ethan was fine, Jack finally felt relieved.

Isabelle asked him, "How's your hand? Does it hurt? Unfortunately, I didn't bring my silver needles, so I can't relieve pain."
Jack glanced at his bandaged arm and turned his face away, saying, "It's not hurting."
Isabelle replied, "You're being stubborn."
As soon as she finished speaking, Isabelle kicked the leg of a stool, making a noise. Jack turned to look at her and saw Isabelle bend down, reach out her hand, feel for-the stool behind her, and then sit down.
Her movements were slightly slow and deliberate.
Jack watched her strange movements, unable to help holding his breath. He looked at Isabelle's unfocused
eyes.
Isabelle's gaze wasn't directed at Jack but at the hospital bed.
She was facing it, not looking at it.
Jack recalled her unusual behavior when she came in earlier. She moved very slowly, each step seeming tentative and cautious.
Her movements were all tinged with unnaturalness.
Jack realized something, and his heart instantly tightened. He stared intently at Isabelle's seemingly normal and beautiful eyes. "What's wrong with
your eyes?"
Isabelle heard the sound and located it, her gaze moving from the hospital bed to Jack's face. She said, "Oh, I'm blind now. It's no big deal."
