The two officers left, and after taking a sip of water, Shen Qiang turned and left as well.

The beautiful hospital director's female assistant hesitated for a moment and then caught up to him, saying, "Shen Qiang, I wanted to find out which department you actually prefer."

Shen Qiang turned his head back in mild astonishment, looking at the sexy and graceful figure of the female assistant, he said, "You mean the director's intention?"

The beautiful hospital director's female assistant was startled for a moment before smiling and saying, "No, it's just my own personal curiosity."

Shen Qiang took a deep breath and said, "I have other things to attend to, goodbye."

Watching Shen Qiang leaving, and recalling how he had even rejected a date with her before, she couldn't help but say coldly, "Shen Qiang, my name is Su Xiaonuan. If you change your mind, you can come to me, because I can help you."

Shen Qiang laughed, not even turning his head back.

He returned to Tumor Surgery, entered the duty room, and opened his own storage locker.

The shoes and shirt Xin Xiaoting had bought for Shen Qiang were still neatly placed in the locker.

Seeing these, Shen Qiang couldn't help but smile.

He took out his phone and checked it. Lv Shuyao had left a charming message: "Shen Qiang, I miss you, I kind of regret coming here."

Shen Qiang laughed and casually replied, "Then come back, I'll make you some medicinal cuisine."

After replying to the message,

looking at himself in the mirror in the storage locker, Shen Qiang's expression turned somber.

After nearly a minute of silence, Shen Qiang called Sun Kaiping.

"Last time, you mentioned you had some connections. I need to find a woman, twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old, between 1.65 and 1.68 meters tall, probably considered beautiful, she..."

Over the phone, Sun Kaiping laughed, "Brother, you're making it a bit difficult for me. If you wanted antiques or real estate, I could certainly help you out, but finding people is not my forte."

"If you really want to find someone, you should contact those business inquiry centers. They are essentially private detectives but calling themselves private investigators probably sounds less legitimate and not as classy, so now most claim to be business investigators."

Shen Qiang frowned and said, "Can they find the person I am looking for?"

Sun Kaiping laughed, "It depends on how much money you're willing to spend. There are over a hundred legally registered business inquiry centers in Provincial City, practically covering every district and street. If even they can't find her, I think you might as well give up."

Shen Qiang was astonished, "So many agencies, if I ask them all to search, how much would it cost?"

Sun Kaiping laughed, "A hundred thousand. Call them and tell them that they have three days to find the person you're looking for, and you'll pay a hundred thousand. If they can't find her, they don't get a dime."

"If they want to earn this money, they'll naturally pay attention. If every private investigator in the city is searching, then generally speaking, as long as she is still in Provincial City, there's a good chance they'll find her."

Hearing this, Shen Qiang nodded and said, "I know what to do now."

After hanging up the phone, he checked with Wu Guoxi and saw there were no other surgery arrangements. Wu Guoxi told Shen Qiang to relax and rest, and that he would call him if anything came up.

Leaving the hospital, he went to a street vendor selling phone cards and bought a new SIM card.

Shen Qiang then entered a restaurant, ordered some food, and began calling business inquiry centers one by one based on the information he found online.

"I'm looking for a woman between 5 feet 5 and 5 feet 6 inches tall, likely named Xiu Rong, 27 or 28 years old. She was last seen around Lianwan River Park, with two flower-selling girls by her side. Find her within three days, and you'll get a reward of 300,000 yuan."

"Yes, call this number. Don't worry about the money; I will notify all business investigation centers. Whoever finds her, gets the reward."

He was on the phone for over two hours.

Until the phone ran out of battery and shut down.

Only then did Shen Qiang calm down to eat. Afterwards, he went to the florist and bought seven red roses before heading back to the hospital.

Inpatient Department, Neurosurgery.

With no other surgeries scheduled, Shen Qiang visited the little girl's room.

At that moment, the director of Neurosurgery was holding an X-ray, explaining to the other doctors, "The surgery Shen Qiang performed was simply perfect. Look here, if it had been just a millimeter further up, it would have damaged the brain's neural tissue."

All the doctors nodded in agreement.

"Shen Qiang is indeed impressive, the only doctor in the province to make the cut."

"Sigh, you just have to accept it. As they say, 'the new waves of the Yangtze River push forward the old.' Shen Qiang really is too good."

"His only issue now is his lack of seniority. If I had his surgical skills, so many hospitals would be lining up to hire me,"

"That's true. In the operating room, every second counts. One minute the surgery's a success and the patient recovers, the next minute it's over, and the patient is dead."

"Even specialists typically need two to four hours to clear a subdural hematoma and to drain intraventricular hemorrhage, but how long did Shen Qiang take? Less than ten minutes!"

The doctors spoke with shock in their eyes. One of them turned inadvertently and saw Shen Qiang, quickly nudging the Neurosurgery director.

The director, with his back to Shen Qiang and engrossed in his talk, didn't catch on and continued, "That's why a talent like Shen Qiang absolutely cannot be left in Tumor Surgery—he must join our Neurosurgery."

"So I ask everyone here to be united in thought and not be swayed by external forces. On this matter, we absolutely cannot compromise! Think about it, what would it be like if a capable young man like Shen Qiang came to our Neurosurgery?"

"The success rate of neurosurgeries would soar, and everyone's bonuses would double! So remember, no matter what Tumor Surgery's people say, we have to insist that Shen Qiang is most suited for Neurosurgery and that keeping him in any other department is a waste of his talent."

Now the doctor standing next to Shen Qiang felt a bit embarrassed, nudging the Neurosurgery director harder, saying awkwardly, "Director, director, behind you."

As the Neurosurgery director turned around and saw Shen Qiang, his eyes immediately lit up, saying, "Shen Qiang, have you made up your mind? Joining Neurosurgery will be the wisest decision of your life."

Shen Qiang smiled and said, "I came to visit a patient. Could you please make way?"

"Oh, sure, sure, feel free to look around." The Neurosurgery director smiled and stepped aside.

Shen Qiang nodded and then pushed open the door to the ward. After disinfecting himself in the antechamber, he entered inside.

The little girl, who had her head shaved, lay on the hospital bed, still unconscious.

Shen Qiang placed the seven roses in a vase on the cabinet by her bed, then pulled up a chair and sat by her bedside. Looking at the girl's severely swollen face, Shen Qiang held her hand tightly and said softly,

"You said that big brother is a good guy, so you didn't sell the flowers to big brother. But actually, you are wrong. Big brother can save people, but he can also kill!"
