"That's why they contacted you." Luca was wondering a moment ago. Did she not give the police her contact number?

Why did they have to call Luke first before reaching her?

It was Luke who told them to do so.

No wonder there were hardly any calls coming in these days. It had been quiet.

Luca sat down in front of the dressing table. She took the bandage and medicine out of the drawer, preparing to change her wound dressing. She did not get to change it last night as Luke was teasing her.

"Are you changing the wound dressing?" Luke put on a collared shirt and understood what Luca was doing when he saw the bandage.

"Yes." Luca nodded and untied the gauze bandage.

Round and round, the bandage covering her wound was slowly unfastened. The wound with stitches was exposed to the air.

Luca carefully observed her wound.

The sutured wound was already full of scabs because of the poison in Luca's body that sped up the healing of the wound. Also, she applied some medicine to it.

"There are scabs already." Luke grabbed her hand and glanced at it.

Some of the dark red scabs on her hand were already falling off. An ordinary person would not have been able to heal that fast.

Luke asked, "Did I overlook yesterday?"

"No, you didn't. It's almost healed." Luca knew Luke was talking about the scabs that were almost falling off.

After all, her wounds heal faster than the others.

Luca withdrew her hand and applied some medicine to it.

"This isn't what the hospital gave you," said Luke. He saw the medicine Johann prescribed for Luca to clean her wound that day. It was not what Luca was using now.
