Weird Rules Rumor: At The Beginning, He Insisted That He Was Not Dead -
Chapter 142: Healing Town (19)
Taking a box from the freezer, Bai Liang wiped the frost from its surface and carefully opened it.
Amidst numerous ice shards lay three items: a heart, a liver, and a pair of lungs. Their color remained normal; they hadn't lost their vitality yet.
If they weren't found, they would soon become a chance at survival for some patient in a VIP ward.
“Mission Progress: 40%”
The moment Bai Liang opened the box, a notification sounded in his mind.
“Find the organs will the mission be completed?” A questioning look appeared in Bai Liang’s eyes.
Generally, completing a mission means clearing the level, but according to this progress bar, finding the organs would make the task about 100% complete. What about other hidden plotlines?
Who is the director, who acts as the puppet master behind the scenes, and those wealthy individuals lying in the patient wards, awaiting transplants?
Am I missing something?... Bai Liang pondered, but analyzing the current information, it seemed no other conclusions could be drawn.
Director Gu still aroused suspicion, and those in the VIP wards were even worse.As Bai Liang pondered, he suddenly noticed a folded sheet of paper among the ice shards in the box.
He took it out and unfolded it. A few lines were written on it.
“When they leave, you leave too. Don’t reveal yourself.”
“The mistake has already been made; I will help you correct it as much as possible.”
“In the future, don’t make mistakes and don’t practice medicine. Medicine won’t save you.”
“May my sacrifice be your atonement...”
Looking at the contents of the note, Bai Liang’s brows furrowed.
No signature, no date; there wasn’t even anything that could link it to known information.
But since this note was in the box, it must contain useful information.
Who was it intended for?
Who is atoning for whose sins, and who is being redeemed?
No... after a moment of thought, Bai Liang turned to Fang Zhiyi and asked, “Can you contact my attending doctor? The one in the VIP ward.”
Fang Zhiyi nodded and asked, “Sir, what about her?”
“Nothing, just ask if it’s possible to store corpses in the basement freezer,” Bai Liang replied casually.
“Alright.” Fang Zhiyi took out her phone and immediately made a call.
After a few questions, she told Bai Liang, “Sir, she said she doesn’t know about the situation in the basement. The hospital leased out the basement a long time ago.”
Leased out?
“Hmm, let’s go then.” Bai Liang pondered for a moment and didn’t dwell on it; he closed the box and put it into his player backpack, preparing to leave the freezer.
According to the information transmitted by Tsou Wei, another one of his organs was stored on the second floor.
After leaving the freezer, Bai Liang and his companions took the elevator to the second floor of the basement.
There was no difference here from the first floor, save for one detail the corridors here weren’t dark; lamps were placed at short intervals.
The darkness couldn’t stand its ground here, a stark contrast to the previous floor.
Upon exiting the elevator, Bai Liang saw someone who somewhat surprised him.
“Doctor Tsou Wei? What are you doing here?” Bai Liang looked at the figure leaning against the corridor wall and asked with confusion.
Tsou Wei was leaning against the wall; she wasn’t wearing a white medical coat but a black sleeveless sweater and straight jeans, looking neat and stylish.
She heard the sound and turned her head, her loose hair gently swaying. It seemed she wasn’t surprised by Bai Liang’s arrival: “I’m a doctor, isn’t it normal to be in a hospital?”
Bai Liang nodded: “If you weren’t my personal doctor, I wouldn’t object to that.”
As his personal doctor, Bai Liang had already explained to her in advance that she couldn’t treat other patients. Judging by her current attire, she seemed to be adhering to this rule.
But nothing here should be normal. She should either be at home or out shopping right now. In any case, when Bai Liang didn’t summon her, she wouldn’t appear at the hospital.
Alright, even if she was truly responsible and caring for her former patients enough to drop by again, that would be normal. But she appeared specifically in the basement.
There are no patients in the basement; only organs and corpses are stored here.
Hearing Bai Liang’s words, Tsou Wei smiled, looked at Fang Zhiyi and the muscular bodyguard: “Indeed, I need to talk to you. Can these two step aside for a moment?”
“If this is a love confession, you don’t need to be shy, because I’m unlikely to agree,” Bai Liang teased lightly.
Tsou Wei shook her head, looking at him with a serious expression: “No, it’s truly important, for both you and me, so I want as few people as possible to know about it.”
Bai Liang remained silent, simply staring into her eyes.
A flicker of panic crossed Tsou Wei’s eyes; she slightly turned her head to avoid it. She didn’t want to show weakness, but Bai Liang’s gaze was too sharp, like a wolf staring at a sheep, and the sheep dared not meet its gaze.
“Alright.”
Tsou Wei looked at Bai Liang in surprise; she thought she would be refused, but she didn’t expect him to agree immediately!
Tsou Wei’s eyelids lowered; she didn’t know what she was thinking.
When Fang Zhiyi and the bodyguard had moved far away, Bai Liang looked at Tsou Wei again, his gaze calm: “Now, you can tell me what this is about?”
“Bai Liang, I hope you’ll stop your investigation.” Tsou Wei addressed him, her tone calm, but Bai Liang clearly saw an appeal in her eyes.
He was a little confused and asked, “What are you talking about? The organ cases or those patients from the VIP ward?”
Tsou Wei shook her head: “Director Gu... please stop investigating Director Gu. I know you’ve sent people after him, but this matter has nothing to do with him.”
“It has nothing to do with him? Then does it have something to do with you?” Bai Liang chuckled lightly, as if mocking Tsou Wei’s naivety.
The whole essence of the matter was already clear: the VIP patients were meant to survive; they were admitted to Ya’an Hospital, and Director Gu was in charge of organ matching and and transplants.
In all of this, Director Gu was the biggest beneficiary. If there was a hidden plot in this affair, it definitely involved Director Gu!
“I...” Tsou Wei wanted to object but couldn’t find any reasonable arguments.
“Alright, Doctor Tsou Wei, you must understand that you are now my personal doctor!” Bai Liang interrupted her, pulling out his Black Card: “If you’re short on money, just say how much you want. One hundred million? Two hundred million?”
“I only have one demand: don’t interfere with me anymore. Stay obediently where you should be. Can you do that?”
It seemed that the relationship between Tsou Wei and Director Gu was extraordinary; perhaps they were teacher and student. Otherwise, Tsou Wei wouldn’t have become a chief doctor so quickly, even with her high qualifications!
Bai Liang didn’t want to slow down the mission’s progress, so he was forced to use money as a breakthrough. In any case, his trillion yuan still left him with over 900 billion, which he couldn’t possibly spend.
