At this mont, Lin Chen's face was already drenched in sweat, but he was entirely focused on the acupuncture, not even having ti to wipe it off.
Su Wanrou carefully took out a handkerchief and helped him wipe his sweat.
The handkerchief emitted a refreshing fragrance, along with Su Wanrou's unique scent.
Lin Chen suddenly felt the fatigue on his body vanish without a trace.
"Thank you!" Lin Chen smiled slightly at Su Wanrou.
But this smile carried a hint of tenderness, a bit of heat, making Su Wanrou feel sowhat shy.
The operating room was silent, the unbearable itch all over Chi Shang's body had disappeared, but he still couldn't move or speak, only watching helplessly as Lin Chen perford acupuncture on the girl.
The others, seeing that Chi Shang was okay, also focused their attention on Lin Chen.
Everyone's eyes were fixed on the silver needles in Lin Chen's hands, eager to see if this young man's claim about Chinese dicine was truly that miraculous.
About half an hour later, Lin Chen withdrew the silver needles from the girl's body and threw them into disinfectant water.
Soon, the water in the basin turned as black as ink.
"Is it done?" Su Wanrou asked softly.
Lin Chen nodded: "She will wake up soon."
At this ti, the nurse in charge of the instrunts suddenly exclaid: "It's amazing, the girl's heart rate and all the data are normal."
"How is that possible!" Everyone was stunned, even Doctor Chi Shang had a look of disbelief.
At this mont, the girl's fingers twitched, and she actually opened her eyes.
She looked confused: "Where am I? What happened to ?"
"The girl is awake, that's great, really great." The doctors and nurses in the ward began cheering excitedly.
At this ti, the surgery room door was suddenly pushed open, and a middle-aged man with glasses rushed in.
Seeing his daughter awake, he instantly bead with joy, tears in his eyes, and said: "Mu Zi, you're awake, you've really woken up."
Mu Zi still looked puzzled: "What happened to ? I just had a dream."
The middle-aged man tightly hugged his daughter: "It's okay, it's all dad's fault, I won't let you get hurt again in the future."
The middle-aged man stood up and ca to Chi Shang: "Doctor, thank you so much, thank you for saving my daughter."
Chi Shang looked embarrassed: "No, it wasn't
who saved her, it was that person."
Suddenly, a look of ecstatic joy appeared on Chi Shang's face; he could actually speak! Then he tried moving, and his arms and legs could move too.
Chi Shang looked at Lin Chen, his eyes full of apprehension. He used to disdain Chinese dicine, but seeing Lin Chen's amazing acupuncture skills today, he couldn't help but feel so admiration for this young man.
Lin Chen took out a packet of dicinal powder and handed it to Su Wanrou: "Make this powder into a dicinal soup, let the students drink it, and they should be fine."
"Mm!" Su Wanrou nodded and hurriedly went to brew the dicine.
At this mont, the middle-aged man respectfully approached Lin Chen, bowing deeply and offering a red envelope: "Sir, thank you for saving my daughter, this is a small token of my gratitude."
Lin Chen smiled faintly: "A doctor should have a benevolent heart, it was just a small gesture, no need for the red envelope."
"Sir is truly a person of great virtue, I see I've been presumptuous. You must consider money as dirt, how can a hundred thousand US Dollars matter to you?" The middle-aged man said, tearing open the red envelope and putting a gold card into his own pocket.
"Damn, a hundred thousand US Dollars, why didn't you just give
the card directly, why put it in a red envelope?" Lin Chen was about to cry with frustration.
This ti, to keep a low profile, he didn't carry a bank card, only a small amount of cash.
Just now, seeing that the red envelope in the middle-aged man's hand was so thin, he assud it was just a few hundred bucks, so he played cool and refused. How could he have known there was a hundred thousand USD card inside?
If only he'd used his X-ray vision to check; now, Lin Chen was filled with regret.
"Forget it, might as well be thick-skinned and ask for the bank card back; after all, a hundred thousand US Dollars is not a small amount." Lin Chen secretly made up his mind.
Just as he was about to speak, a few people with caras ran up from the entrance; Lin Chen imdiately noticed they were reporters.
He frowned and said: "Hey, I've got sothing to do, I'm leaving first. By the way, could you block those reporters for ?"
The middle-aged man smiled: "That's a piece of cake."
With that, the middle-aged man waved his hand, and several n in black already stopped the reporters outside.
anwhile, Lin Chen took the opportunity to leave the hospital via the fire escape.
Outside the hospital, Lin Chen sighed in relief.
According to Ashi's information, there are three major gangs in Island Nation's Shinjuku: the Yamamoto Group, Sakura Group, and Ikeda Group.
These three organizations control the underground world of Shinjuku, and every four years, they elect a leader among them, and this year happens to be the fourth year.
However, Ikeda Ueno, the president of the Ikeda Group, recently decided to retire and give up the leader's position.
The token for relinquishing power is an ancient scroll, which according to A Shi's words might contain the verses Lin Chen wants.
Lin Chen rubbed his head, seems like he'll have to find a way to attend the handover ceremony!
To attend the handover ceremony, he must join a gang!
While Lin Chen was worried about how to join a gang, in the ward, the middle-aged man wore a grim expression.
A man in black with a katana suddenly appeared behind him: "Mr. Yamamoto, we checked, all the staff who delivered als to the students yesterday have disappeared. We just received news that their bodies and the delivery vehicles were found; both the cars and people were burned beyond recognition."
"So you're saying it was those delivery staff who poisoned the food and then were silenced?" Yamamoto coughed a few tis and said.
"Exactly, that's right," the man in black said in a deep voice.
"Hei Wu, no matter what ans you use, find the person behind the scenes, I can't let anyone threaten Mu Zi's life," Yamamoto said coldly.
"Yes, Mr. Yamamoto!" Hei Wu nodded in response.
At this mont, Lin Chen, who was worried about joining a gang, would never have thought he had just passed by Yamamoto, the leader of the Yamamoto Group, one of the three major gangs.
Lin Chen wandered aimlessly through Shinjuku, familiarizing himself with this unfamiliar city of the Island Nation.
Shinjuku's Kabukicho, a place of mixed people, hidden currents, known as the most chaotic and dangerous locale in Tokyo.
And the three major factions are the underground controllers of this chaotic place.
After wandering for a day, as night fell, Lin Chen stopped in front of a bar nad "Night Shanghai."
In a foreign country, seeing a bar nad after a Chinese city made Lin Chen feel a sense of intimacy, so he walked in.
Inside the bar, neon lights were flashing, won were scantily clad, and many young people were shaking their heads on the dance floor, clearly on so kind of drugs.
Seeing this chaotic scene, Lin Chen's mouth curled up into a faint smile; it seed he had co to the right place, as bars were chaotic places, breeding grounds for gangs.
