I Get A Random New Occupation Every Week

Chapter 2237: Chapter 2238: Giving You Face, Aren’t I?

Lin Yi, with Li Chuhan in tow, returned to the cardiac surgery department and enjoyed a comfortable night’s sleep.

However, he woke up just after six in the morning the next day.

After all, it wasn’t his own bed, so naturally, he did not sleep well.

“Go check on our colleagues upstairs, I’ll go downstairs to the ER and take a look,” Li Chuhan said after getting up.

Lin Yi nodded, “I’ll find you later, after we eat, then we can head back.”

“Mm-hm.”

After getting dressed, they each went their separate ways.

By this time, Shao Jianfeng had woken up; since his injuries were the lightest, he was fine as long as he didn’t move too much after being stitched up.

“How are you feeling?” Lin Yi asked with a smile as he looked at Shao Jianfeng.

“The anesthesia has worn off, and it hurts a bit now, but I can bear it,” Shao Jianfeng was curious, “Boss, back when you were in Panama and got blown up like that, how did you endure it?”

“I was freaking knocked out by the blast; where was the sense to even care about the pain?” Lin Yi laughed and cursed, “Just stay in Zhong Hai for the time being. Anyway, there’s no mission, you can go back after you’ve recovered.”

“We’re getting free food and accommodation here, we didn’t even think about leaving.”

“F*ck.”

After chatting for a while, Lin Yi went to check on Yu Siying and the other two.

Xiao Bing’s situation was the lightest; although she had been stabbed in the abdomen, the knife had not hit any internal organs, which was an unfortunate stroke of luck.

The next was Yu Siying, who was also not in serious danger and would be fine with proper rest and care.

The most critical was still Zhao Yunhu, who had not yet passed the danger period and still faced the possibility of infection, requiring ongoing observation.

“Lin Bro.”

When they saw Lin Yi, the three of them greeted him.

“Better lie back down,” Lin Yi said. “Boss Liu said you’re getting a collective second-class merit. This bustle wasn’t for nothing.”

“Lin Bro, let’s forget it. We’ve been beaten to a pulp; we’ve got no face to accept any second-class merit,” Xiao Bing said.

“They had a Class C on their side, and you guys just stepped into Class D not long ago. It’s normal not to beat them; there’s nothing shameful about that.”

“But the mission failed, and Li Zhenquan got away. It’ll be difficult to catch him later.”

“There’s nothing that could be done,” Lin Yi said, “But as long as he doesn’t run back to the Freemasons’ headquarters, there’s still a chance. Don’t worry about it anymore, I’ll handle it. Just focus on recovering here.”

“Got it.”

After chatting in the ward with the three of them for a while, Qiu Yuluo and Ning Che arrived.@@novelbin@@

The three gathered in the stairwell, where Ning Che asked,

“Do you still have things to take care of here? If not, we’re getting ready to head back to Yanjing.”

Lin Yi nodded, “If there’s nothing else, you should head back. Their conditions have stabilized. If you have time, help me check into Li Zhenquan’s situation. They have information on the E-class serum, and it’s making me uneasy.”

“But these are the Freemasons’ own assets in the first place; what’s there to feel uneasy about?”

Ning Che’s eyes wandered, then she said,

“Do you think they would run off with the stuff and defect to someone else?”

“That’s indeed a possibility,” Lin Yi said solemnly, “I analyzed it last night and feel that the Hongmen situation is still complicated.”

“First, there’s a huge conflict between us and the Freemasons. They have plenty of reasons to send people over to handle this and annihilate one group as revenge.”

“Second, their attitude toward Hongmen is too cold. It gives me the impression that they are not seriously concerned about the affairs here in Shianggang, as if it’s been strategically abandoned.”

“Strategically abandoned?” Qiu Yuluo asked in confusion.

“The most powerful time for Hongmen was undoubtedly when Fang Dezhong was in charge. His strategy and his people were strong enough to tussle with the Central Guards Brigade. But now, those people are dead, and Li Zhenquan has taken over. He’s just a loser who can’t stand on his own two feet. We can all see it, and the Freemasons must know it too. They had no choice but to push him up,” Lin Yi said, “He’s a member of the Freemasons, and they have the ability to protect him, but why would the Freemasons shelter such a waste? And they left in such a hurry, only taking the money and leaving all the other assets behind. It all seems a bit off.”

“So your viewpoint is that the Freemasons have given up on Hongmen and are unlikely to provide them with protection, right?”

“That’s right,” Lin Yi said, “This is just my guess. No one can be sure about the specifics. If you have time, look into it. There might be unexpected findings.”

“Alright, I’ll take care of it when I get back,” Qiu Yuluo said, “By the way, look into the mysterious death of Ma Dehong while you’re here. There seems to be something fishy about it.”

“Don’t worry, I’ve got it covered.”

After a brief conversation, the two women left. Lin Yi went back to the ward, greeted everyone in Group One, and then headed to the ER, ready to pick up Li Chuhan from her shift and go out for a meal.

The ER at Huashan Hospital was always the busiest.

Some people, to reduce waiting times, liked to register for emergency care, which inadvertently increased the workload for the medical staff.

When Lin Yi arrived at the ER, several doctors and nurses who recognized him came up to say hello.

At this moment, Li Chuhan was at the information desk, talking to the on-duty nurse.

Just then, shouts came from the entrance.

“Make way, make way!”

Lin Yi looked toward the source of the noise and saw two ER doctors and a middle-aged couple rushing in with a patient.

When Li Chuhan saw the commotion, she hurried over to ask,

“What’s the situation?”

“I took a quick look, and it could be an aneurysm. These are images the patient had taken at another hospital.”

Li Chuhan took a look and said, “It’s so serious already, why didn’t you come in earlier?”

“Well…”

The family members hesitated, struggling to state their reason.

“The patient needs surgery, costing about 100,000 yuan. Go get ready, and I’ll arrange for hospitalization.”

“Hurry, hurry, perform the surgery on my mom,” the middle-aged man said.

Li Chuhan nodded, “You go ahead with the payment.”

“At this critical time and you’re still only concerned about money,” the middle-aged man accused, “What if something happens to my mom!”

“Don’t worry, we will provide conservative treatment for the time being, and the patient will be fine. But you only have one hour, or it’ll be too late.”

“Then don’t drag your feet, just perform the surgery, we’ll go raise the money,” the middle-aged man shouted.

“Can you understand what I’m saying? You need to pay first,” Li Chuhan said, “If you don’t have the full amount now, then pay ten thousand to start. Otherwise, according to hospital policy, we cannot perform the surgery.”

“Have you lost all humanity? They say doctors are like angels in white, yet at times like this, you turn a blind eye to death. Really, you have no medical ethics at all…”

Thump!

As the middle-aged man was cursing, Lin Yi stepped forward and kicked him.

“If you don’t want to treat the illness, then get out of here with the patient. You think you’re entitled to face?”
