Iriya is too angry to answer him back, so she says, "Don't forget that it’s you who came to us. When the Lockwood family falls into someone else's hands, you're not going to get anything!"
"I see, just take your time."
"It's best to do it as soon as possible." Iriya snorts, then pushes open the door of the ward and goes in.
Ryan stares at the person in the ward for a moment, then turns and leaves.
The mobile phone in his pocket suddenly vibrates a few times. He takes it out of his pocket and answers, "Hello?"
"Oh, I feel so bad. It’s so bad, help... help me..." The familiar voice makes Ryan's pupil contract suddenly.
He holds tightly the phone and trembles uncontrollably. It is a long time before he comes back to earth.
"I know you are listening. What do you want to do?" He tries to calm himself down and asks calmly.
The painful voice for help gradually drifts away, and a vicious voice rings on the other end of the phone.
"You haven't made any progress for so long. Have you forgotten your identity?"
"No, I always keep that in mind." He says word by word, he holds tighter the mobile phone. The sunshine and warmth in his eyes fade a little, leaving only endless gloom.
"It’s best if you remember. I will give you another week, if you still don’t make any progress, well..."
The last sound is especially highlighted, and harsh, with menace and sinister.
Then the phone hangs up.
Ryan doesn't look at the call screen. With a hard wrist, the phone is snapped by half. The fragment of the screen splinters into his palm, and the blood flows out.
After a long time, he doesn't loosen the broken cell phone in his hand, but holds it tighter before leaving this place.
It takes Jamie two days for the red spots to completely fade away, and finally she doesn't have to be pushed down by a certain shameless person to apply the medicine.
However, Jamie still hasn't gotten in touch with Chris these days. He took her to the place where he lives now last time. At that time, the car deliberately made several turns in order to get rid of the people behind it, and it is night, so she didn't pay attention to the route.
As a result, no one can find him unless he comes to her himself.
July is looking for her very diligently but Jozo doesn't take any actions, as if she doesn't know Chris once came here at all.
Jamie has already had some ideas in her heart. Maybe, just as July says, she lost her national emblem and Jozo happened to get it.
Jamie is still puzzled by Jozo's ambiguous words that day.
Who should she trust?
She asks Dan about this question, but Dan says that July is more suspicious, but when she asks him why, he doesn't tell her, just let her guess herself.
How can she guess?
Jamie, who has been troubled by this problem, doesn’t want to think about it anymore and goes to "CR Street" with the research report given to her by the Vice Minister of Design Department last time.
As the name implies, it is a street full of CR stores.
Originally, she was going to ask Wendy to accompany her, but Wendy is busy dealing with the matter of Eddie, so she doesn't bother her.
Jamie has completely forgotten Ryan's reminder that day and devotes herself to the clothing investigation of CR.
