The dean carefully examined Zhou Yi and spoke with a solemn expression:

"Young Master Zhou, if you don't tell me who your mentor is..."

"I'm afraid I can't get these medicines for you. After all, the patient is in my hospital. If I can't guarantee that every dose of medicine the patient takes is safe, then it's the hospital's responsibility."

"If anything happens to the patient midway through the process, I will be fully responsible."

If there was no outright refusal, then there's room for negotiation.

Zhou Yi looked directly at the dean and promised him, "Dean, I am Grandma's primary guardian. I will take responsibility for anything that happens."

"Besides, don't you want to find out whether your medical skills are inadequate or I'm just making things up?"

"Since neither of us can convince the other, then we'll do it my way. I'll prepare the medicine, and I'll make you see the truth!"

The doctor who had been standing by as a background figure gasped in shock. Good heavens, was this a challenge to the hospital director?

The dean's deep eyes calmly looked at Zhou Yi, and finally, a smile appeared on his lips:

"Okay, I can get these medicinal herbs for you."

"However, the medicinal herbs you prescribed are a bit expensive. As the president of the Zhou Group, you can afford this amount of money, right?"

After all, some of the medicinal herbs that Zhou Yi prescribed had age restrictions!

You should know that modern medicines are all grown using chemical methods, so they don't really have any age to speak of.

But the dean is different; he has connections, and he can get these medicines with just one phone call.

"Of course, go ahead and buy it!"

The dean gave a cryptic laugh, as if he were anticipating something.

Before leaving the ward, the hospital director glanced at the attending physician standing to the side and whispered, "What happened today must be kept secret!"

The attending physician quickly nodded and watched the hospital director leave.

"Young Master Zhou, you actually know medicine? Really?"

"Is the old lady really poisoned?"

“I also studied traditional Chinese medicine when I was in college, but traditional Chinese medicine is so profound and complex. Any prescription has different interactions of mutual generation and restraint, which is too difficult for me.”

The attending physician suddenly remembered a medical question he had taken in school and, wanting to test Zhou Yi, asked the question.

There are no answers to this question online; the teacher will only tell them the answer after the exam.

After Zhou Yi asked the question, he offered several solutions.

Now, the doctor began to believe that Zhou Yi really did have medical skills!

After another caregiver came to take over, Zhou Yi did not linger and left the hospital directly.

The dean told him that he would call him once the medicinal herbs had been collected.

He has a wide network of connections, and it won't take him more than two days to collect these medicinal herbs.

The driver had already driven the car out of the hospital parking lot, and Zhou Yi was just about to get in when...

The phone started vibrating.

As soon as the call connected, the other end said, "You're Zhou Yi, right? We're from the First Branch of the Lucheng Public Security Bureau. My badge number is..."

"I'm calling you this time because you reported to the police at the hospital last time that your breakfast had been poisoned, and now we've identified the suspect."

"They are a criminal gang that came from abroad to commit crimes in multiple cities in our country."

"According to our investigation, you have been followed by this criminal gang. They use extremely cruel methods to commit crimes. To ensure your safety, we will send police officers to protect you."

Zhou Yi got into the car, listening to the news on the phone with an inscrutable expression.

Gang?

Is it really a gang?

But why does he feel that the group that killed his parents has come back?

"Okay, thanks for reminding me, I understand."

"I will protect my own safety." Zhou Yi tapped his fingers on the handrail and spoke calmly to the police.

And the next second.

The other party added, "Zhou Yi, we've discovered that you're being followed. Keep an eye on the car behind you."

“These criminals may be carrying explosives. We can’t let them endanger public safety. Find an opportunity to lead the car behind us onto a side road. We will set up a checkpoint on the side road.”

"We hope you can assist the police in apprehending the criminal gang."

“..........”

Hearing the voice coming from the phone, Zhou Yi looked in the rearview mirror and saw an inconspicuous black car following his car.

Who is the other party?

Is he trying to assassinate me again?

"Please don't hang up. I'll guide you to a less crowded area," the police officer continued, directing Zhou Yi.

Zhou Yi pressed a button on his watch without making a sound, and the dial next to him immediately turned into a virtual pattern with several flashing dots.

These points of light are very close to me!

After he pressed the emergency button on his watch, several letters appeared in the flashing lights.

"Go down at the fork in the road ahead."

Zhou Yi spoke to the driver, and at the same time, he was speaking to the 'police officer' on the other end of the phone.

After walking a short distance from the intersection, several police officers actually appeared ahead, and roadblocks were placed on the road to prevent any vehicles from passing.

"Driver, take the car over there."

Just as the driver hesitated about whether to turn around, Zhou Yi suddenly spoke and then hung up the phone.

"No matter what happens, stay in the car and don't get out." Zhou Yi instructed the driver after the police signaled the car to stop.

The police officer walked up to Zhou Yi's car and knocked on the window, his expression very sincere: "Mr. Zhou Yi, thank you for your cooperation."

"Please get out of the car now. There might be a shootout later, and we can't protect you."

The car Zhou Yi was in had bulletproof glass, so ordinary guns couldn't get through.

At this moment, Zhou Yi simply watched the 'police officer' speak coldly without making any move.

"Young Master Zhou, the police are telling us to get out of the car," the driver reminded him when he didn't move.

When the police urged him to get out of the car again, the driver had no suspicions and was about to open the door and get out.

However--

At this moment.

A voice inside the car stopped the driver: "Stop!"

"Don't open the door, wait quietly in the car!"

Zhou Yi's cold, stern voice rang out from behind him, startling the driver so much that his hands trembled, and his hand, which was about to press the car door, stopped in mid-air.

The people in the car didn't open the door and get off for a long time.

Several police officers exchanged glances and surrounded the car. The officer who knocked on the window stared coldly at the window, as if trying to see through the privacy film to the person sitting inside.

"Zhou Yi, please assist the police in their investigation."

"Please get off the bus immediately."

"Otherwise, I have reason to suspect that you are in cahoots with those criminal gangs."

There was still no movement inside the car.

The police officers' patience had run out. They guessed that Zhou Yi must have discovered their identities... or begun to suspect them, which was why they hadn't gotten out of the car.

But that doesn't matter anymore!
