This was the first time Felix had ever heard Yvonne sound so distressed. His emotions were stirred by her sobbing
"What happened? Tell me!" he shouted.
"There's an outbreak of some unknown illness at an orphanage in Canraville. Can you go there? Those poor kids are suffering terribly," Yvonne explained.
An orphanage? Felix didn't need to ask why or how this was connected to Yvonne. He only knew that these children, who had already had an unfortunate life, were now enduring physical torment as well. It was too heartbreaking. now.
"I'm on my way now."
"Thank you, Felix. Lady Nala and I just arrived in Yartford, but we're taking a flight right back to Canraville. Besides you, Lady Nala has used her connections to gather every available doctor in the area."
Nala was involved in this? Felix didn't ask further questions. He hailed a taxi and went to the address Yvonne had given him.
Shortly after getting off, Felix received a call from Larry's younger brother, Luis. Felix briefly explained his situation and asked Luis to search for his car, as his current priority was the orphanage and the children in need.
The orphanage was in the eastern suburbs of Canraville. The drive was over half an hour, and luckily, they managed to avoid traffic at this hour, or else it would have taken longer to reach.
To Felix's surprise, he found the orphanage entirely surrounded by armed soldiers, a level of security he hadn't anticipated for a possible infectious outbreak that was not official yet. "Mr. Zeller, so you've come as well."
Alistair, who came out from the main gate, seemed unsurprised to see Felix. He was well aware of Felix's skill in medicine.
"Even the Wolfie troops are here? This must be serious," Felix muttered.
As they walked together, Alistair updated him on the situation.
"It's critical 13 children are sick. They're in constant pain, suffering severe muscle spasms, and even sedatives have no effect. Frankly, it's horrific. We need your help, Mr. Zeller." Felix noticed tears at the corners of Alistair's eyes. It was a rare sight to see from such a hardened soldier. The sheer suffering of these children was enough to move even a man

like Alistair to tears.
"I can't say anything for sure until I see the patients myself," Felix said.
"Yes. Currently, Dr. Quinn is leading the efforts. Fortunately, he was still in Canraville, only hours away from boarding a flight. There's also a healer named Zara, who seems to be really good as well." Brandon was here as well? Felix felt a bit relieved. With Brandon involved, the situation seemed more hopeful.
As they proceeded, Felix saw numerous doctors in lab coats moving back and forth. The medical teams here were clearly overwhelmed, waiting to see if Brandon could solve the issue. If hospitals could have handled it, they wouldn't have to call on this large-scale intervention.
"Why was your team called in for this?" Felix asked curiously.
Alistair's expression turned grim. "Brandon believes the children's illness was deliberately caused. The headquarters ordered my superiors to bring in the Wolfie troops immediately if the culprit is still lurking."
It was caused deliberately? A dangerous glint flashed in Felix's eyes. Who could be so inhuman as to target helpless children? It was monstrous.
"All the children are inside, and Brandon is there as well. I've been called to join the others in another room to discuss our next steps, so I'll leave you to it, Mr. Zeller." "Understood."
The "superior" Alistair mentioned was undoubtedly Xena, who was also deployed by the headquarters. Given that the lives of over a dozen children were at stake, such drastic measures were necessary. Schools, nurseries, and any place with children could be at risk if the perpetrator struck again.
