Chapter 688

Exclusive hospital within the police station.

Karl woke up to dawn, dazzling sunlight filtering through the cracks in

the curtains, dazzlingly bright.

He managed to open his eyes, adjusting to the bright light, his whole

body was sore and weak, and his throat was dry and burning like fire.

He spoke in a hoarse voice, "Water ..."

Officer Franklin stayed with the night, he ambled to sleep on the coffee

table, and when he heard the sound, he stood up in a hurry, "Captain,

you are finally awake.

I'll get you some water."

Catching a glimpse of Karl struggling to sit up, he hurriedly shouted,

"Captain, don't move, you just had surgery on your abdomen and both

bullets were taken out.

Don't move, the wound will open up! I'l do what I want!"

Franklin hurriedly poured a glass of warm water and shook the nursing

bed up again.

Karl followed the nursing bed backboard up and sat up.

He took the glass Franklin handed him and took a few sips of water,

feeling better in his throat.

When he first woke up, his brain had a moment of blankness, as if

everything just experienced a dream, the whole person in a trance, can

not distinguish the reality from the real.

Immediately, he came to his senses and grabbed Franklin's arm, his

voice tinged with fear, "Where's Joyce, is she okay? Did you find her?

You must have found her, didn't you? Where is she now? Is she in this

hospital too?"

"Why is it still daytime? How long did I sleep and what day of the week

is it?"

Karl anxiously asked several questions in quick succession.

"Sunday morning."

Franklin stammered, not daring to answer positively, "Captain, I'm sorry,

no, no Joyce ..."

"Sunday? More than ten hours have passed? You're telling me you

haven't found Joyce yet?" Karl's handsome face instantly twisted in

pain, and his grip on Franklin's hand tightened hard, "What are you still

doing here? Why don't you go find her?"

"Captain, calm down."

Franklin pressed Karl helplessly.

"Captain, listen to me, after you called yesterday afternoon.

Coast Guard is out in full force, in the sea near the cliff has been

searching, never stop, at night they also turn on the lighting has been

searching, patrolling around.

So far, no news."

"Widen the scope, widen the scope and keep searching!" Karl's

emotions were out of control, and endless mourning flowed from his

clear, meaningful eyes, "Go to heaven and earth to find her!"

In fact, Franklin's heart was sad when he couldn't find Joyce. He had

been following Karl for many years and had never seen the captain

have any mood swings, let alone get excited like this now, and he

always thought in his heart that the captain was God and couldn't

perceive earthly sorrow and happiness.

It turns out that no, it is the captain did not meet the person who can

sway the emotions before.

"Captain, take it easy.

They're still looking, and we're not giving up.

Life to see people ..." Franklin suddenly stopped talking, death to see

the body, this sentence, he could not say in any case.

Karl's body went limp, his heart surging with endless despair, and he

fell heavily backwards, clinging to the back of the bed.

In fact, what miracle is he expecting? More than ten hours, the golden

time of sea rescue has long passed, yesterday the wind is also big, the

waves are also big, the vast sea, looking for a person is like a needle in

a haystack, as a police officer, the reason how he does not

understand?
