Chapter 766: The Miracle Doctor Appeared!
Lu Zhan smiled and gave her an out. “Chengzhou is usually busy. Ms. Leng, I hope you won’t mind him if he has offended you. I will send someone to take you and your team to tour around the museum later.”
Leng Xuan looked away, displeased. “I understand. Thank you, Commander Lu.”
…
Lu Chengzhou got into the car and made a phone call to the Blood Institute. “Take the medicinal herb Su Qing to the lab and test the ingredients.”
Director Qian was confused when he received the phone call. These days, they had been researching blood.
Why would he make them conduct a test on a medicinal herb?
Lu Chengzhou continued, “Compare the ingredients when the components have been separated. See if they are linked to the issue with the blood.”
Director Qian responded, “Okay, Young Master Lu. I’ll get the researchers to do so right away.”
Lu Chengzhou hummed. Lu Yī glanced at his master from the rearview mirror.
A drowning man would clutch at a straw. If he could think of a possibility, he would not let the opportunity slip away.
Director Qian was suddenly reminded of something and he asked, “Young Master Lu, have you found the Miracle Doctor?”
Lu Chengzhou leaned back slightly. The mention of the Miracle Doctor made him frown. From the look of his eyes, he seemed frustrated. “What do you mean? Why are you asking this?”
Director Qian had only mentioned the Miracle Doctor once before. It was impossible for him to ask for no reason.
Director Qian answered, “Well, this morning, I read the latest issue of God Hand. There is an academic report regarding blood research and I heard that it is a manuscript from the Miracle Doctor. There was even a special section for the Miracle Doctor’s latest research..”
Lu Chengzhou had not heard any news about the Miracle Doctor in six months. He did not expect him to show up at such a time. Red Flame must not have received the news yet.
The man paused for a while and said, “I got it.”
After he hung up the call with Director Qian, Lu Chengzhou called Qin Fang immediately.
He explained everything to him in a simple manner and said, “Check with God Hand.”
Qin Fang did not expect the Miracle Doctor to come knocking at their door. He quickly responded, “Sure, Old He and I will head there now.”
…
In the afternoon.
Shen Qianzi did not have any classes. Master Bi sent an assistant to bring her to Hotel W.
As Leng Xuan and Master Bi’s teams were staying there, there were security checkpoints at the entrance of the hotel and the surveillance cameras covered every area. Private cars were not allowed to use the surrounding roads.
The assistant took Shen Qianzi to the elevator and they went straight to Room 1908 on the top level, which was a presidential suite.
Leng Xuan, Master Bi, and the team were sitting by the coffee table enjoying the view out of the floor-to-ceiling windows with tea.
Shen Qianzi and the assistant came in.
Master Bi was chatting with Leng Xuan when he noticed Shen Qianzi. He turned to look at her. “Qianzi, you’re here.”
“Teacher.” Shen Qianzi greeted him in an obedient and polite manner.
Shen Qianzi did not know everyone else so she did not speak hastily.
Master Bi introduced her to everyone else. “This is Elder Leng.”
Given Leng Xuan’s status, those in the medical world had to be at a level similar to Yu Zhongjing and Kang Qi’s in order to have a chance to meet her at the medical summit.
As Shen Qianzi was a sophisticated person, she was rather calm. “Hello, Elder Leng.”
Leng Xuan seemed very indifferent, as if she were not in a very good mood.
But since Shen Qianzi noticed that everyone else at the table was behaving normally, Shen Qianzi just assumed that Leng Xuan was usually distant.
Leng Xuan nodded.
Master Bi looked at Shen Qianzi. “Qianzi, sit down. Have some food.”
“Thank you, teacher.” Shen Qianzi pulled the chair back and sat down.
Then, Master Bi turned to Leng Xuan. “Give her some guidance regarding the International Physiology Competition. It is best if she gets first place. Then, she can be admitted straight into the Jijing Special Institute.”
Leng Xuan glanced at Shen Qianzi. “Do a question here later.”
Shen Qianzi knew that Leng Xuanwanted to see what she was capable of so she nodded. “Alright, Elder Leng.”
…
Gu Mang only had one class in the afternoon. It was a 4pm class.
A black SUV was parked by the road near the back gate of Capital University. Lu Chengzhou stood on the curb with his mask on, looking at his phone.
Qin Fang’s investigation had been quick. He had already found some things. “Brother Cheng, can you believe this? There are still people out there sending letters by mail?!”
Lu Chengzhou frowned.
“The Chief Editor of God Hand said that all the medical manuscripts were submitted by mail. They never met anyone in person,” Qin Fang answered.
Lu Chengzhou replied, “What about the most recent contacts of the Chief Editor? How is the investigation going?”
“We checked them too. The person who submitted the manuscript used a virtual account. This Miracle Doctor has simply opened my eyes to a whole new world.” Qin Fang laughed. “All the academic reports in God Hand are provided free of charge to leading experts in the medical field. God Hand also selects academic reports for publication. Only this manuscript by the Miracle Doctor had to be paid for. It was really costly and the subscription price increased this year. The virtual account was used to negotiate the price.”
People cracked their heads to get their articles published in the magazine, free of charge.
Yet this Miracle Doctor’s manuscript is behind a paywall? And she even negotiated the price. What a monster!
Qin Fang said, “We checked the account. It was transferred through a program. The Miracle Doctor was very skillful. He deactivated the account after every transaction ended. We couldn’t find a single thing. I’m guessing this is Arctic Fox’s work.”
Lu Chengzhou was not very frustrated. Instead, he got interested about how skillful this Miracle Doctor was. He laughed. “He’s pretty good at hiding.”
“Yeah.” Qin Fang had never felt such a great sense of failure. “We have been strung along by that Miracle Doctor and Arctic Fox all this time. Damn, thinking about it makes me mad!”
He seemed to suddenly understand the phrase that Brother Cheng had said before. “Don’t let me get hold of that Miracle Doctor and Arctic Fox.”
Lu Chengzhou rubbed his fingers softly. He kind of wanted to smoke. He reached into his pocket and took out a lollipop. He held the white stick of the lollipop as if he were holding a cigarette.
“Clearly, she wants to earn money from everyone but me.” Lu Chengzhou seemed to be gritting his teeth. “Does the Miracle Doctor have something against me?”
“I think that’s possible.” A thought flashed in Qin Fang’s mind. “Have we offended him before?”
Otherwise, why would he not want money? After all, they had offended too many people.
Lu Chengzhou looked away and saw Gu Mang who was walking towards him from a distance. “Let’s stop here for now. Bye.”
After hanging up, Lu Chengzhou put away his phone and unwrapped the lollipop. Then, he walked towards Gu Mang.
When Gu Mang reached him, he put the lollipop up to her mouth. She opened her mouth and bit the lollipop. It was a new flavor, mango milk.
Lu Chengzhou held her hand and walked towards the car. “We’re heading to Granny’s place now.”
“Okay,” she replied.
…
Although it was 4pm, traffic in the capital was still very heavy. When they reached the Lu residence from the capital, it was already half past 5.
Lu Chengzhou drove the car into the parking lot and saw an unfamiliar black car in the row of parking spaces. He glanced at it for a moment before turning away.
He stopped the engine.
The two of them got out of the car. Lu Chengzhou held Gu Mang’s hand and they walked into the Lu residence.
When they stepped into Granny Lu’s yard, the servants bowed at them respectfully. “Third Master, Ms. Gu.”
Granny Lu and Ye Junci could hear their voices from inside the house, interrupting a conversation between the two.
