[Luke: @Dave, highly unlikely. If Leo had just offended someone, they wouldn't go so far as to lure him into a deserted forest and set him up with a landmine. Based on the shrapnel Zhane extracted from his wounds, it was definitely from military-grade landmines—tricky devices even for professionals. The mafia is known to handle such weapons, but even they wouldn't take that kind of risk unless it was necessary. So why go to such extremes for a supposed nobody?]
[Zhane: So you're saying Leo might be caught up in something much bigger?]
[Luke: Exactly.]
[Luke: We need to assign someone to protect him and his people. At least until we know what we're dealing with. His life could still be in danger.]
[Zhane: Hera already requested backup. Miss Cindy responded personally—she deployed a team to isolate an entire hospital floor for Leo and his group. Retired elite soldiers are stationed at every entry point. It's locked down tight.]
