When Michelle Campbell arrived at her grandmother's house in the countryside, it was already late and the little village was incredibly quiet.

Just as she was about to open the door, she heard a sudden rustling in the bush in the courtyard...

Since the area had been left untended for a long time, the grass had grown quite lush.

Michelle was startled, thinking it might be a snake...

"Cough..." A heavy cough sounded from within the grass.

"Who's there?" She was frightened by the cough.

But no one answered her, only weak panting was audible.

Michelle gathered her courage, walked over, and saw a person lying on the ground.

She was terrified and quickly took out her cellphone to cast some light on the person in the grass.

In the grass, there lay a short-haired man, wearing a white shirt and black casual pants.

But the white shirt was stained with blood...

A faint smell of blood filled the air.

She cautiously touched the man's body which was still warm, and felt slightly relieved.

The man's short hair was damp with sweat, sticking to his face.

His face was now covered in blood, making it difficult for Michelle to see his features, and she didn't dare look any closer.

However, judging by his figure, he appeared to be a young man in his twenties.

Seeing the man seriously injured and considering the difficulty of getting an ambulance to this rural area, Michelle decided to carry the man into the house first.

With that in mind, she grabbed the man's arm, preparing to move him into the house...

...

Michelle's family ran a traditional Chinese medicine business, and her grandmother was once a village's old doctor.

The house her grandmother lived in was a simple one-story tile-roofed building, but the room was full of treasures, including various Chinese medicines and some Western medicines.

Michelle wasn't very strong, and the man was quite tall, over six feet tall, and naturally weighed quite a bit. After using all her strength to move the man into the room, she placed him on the side and began to examine his injuries.

The wound on his body came from a gunshot to his chest... No wonder he had lost so much blood.

But she was not a doctor and couldn't remove the bullet.

At present, all she could do was help him stop the bleeding and assess the situation afterwards!

She rummaged through her grandmother's treasures and finally found some emergency hemostatic medicine.

She tore open the man's clothes and sprinkled the medicine powder onto the wound... hoping it would stop the bleeding.

The man furrowed his brows, seemingly feeling the pain brought by the medicine. He slowly opened his pupils, revealing a pair of pitch-black eyes.

"Don't touch me." At this moment, the man suddenly woke up and pushed Michelle away with one hand.

Michelle was startled...

"I've applied some medicine for you, the blood should stop for a while. I'll call for help now and arrange for a car to take you to the hospital!" Michelle didn't dare to look him directly in the eye and reached for her phone.

At this time, the man extended his hand and snatched her phone away, preventing her from making the call.

"Are you with George Noah Jackson?" The man asked suspiciously, as if she were a villain.

"What?" Michelle thought he was talking nonsense due to his injury; she didn't know anything about George and Noah.

"Here's some medicine for emergency hemostasis, you can handle it yourself. I'll find some medicine for you to take!" Michelle placed the medicine powder on the ground, then turned to search her grandmother's cabinet for more medicines...
