The surgery for Wang Jinglan started at nearly nine o'clock in the morning and lasted until 7:35 in the evening, taking ten and a half hours.

At the moment the surgery ended, Lin Jie was so exhausted from the huge physical and mental drain that he wished he could lie down on the floor and fall asleep immediately.

He forced himself to stay awake, exited the operating room, and after speaking a few words to Wang Jinglan's family and relatives who had been waiting outside, he went into the changing room and finally couldn't hold on anymore, falling asleep on the bench...

However, by 8:30 the next morning, after resting for one night, Lin Jie appeared rejuvenated at the small recreational fitness plaza of Garden No. 1 village.

The place had already been set up as a temporary activity site.

Three gigantic red hydrogen balloons each pulled a long banner, floating occasionally as if they were kites in the breeze twenty meters in the air.

The words "Anlin Hospital," "Anlin Charity Foundation," and "Binhai University Medical School" on the banners were clearly visible from a distance.

Four or five sunshade tents had been erected on the small plaza, each tent equipped with four sets of tables and chairs.

Yang Leyi, together with the committee member Qin, was busy putting bottled drinks and some promotional leaflets into each tent with a few others.

"Dr. Lin is here!"

"Xiao Lin, you're getting better-looking with each passing day, do you have a girlfriend yet?"

"Lin Jie, please have a look at this area, I have some red spots..."

"There's a lump here..."

Dozens of residents who were already gathered here saw Lin Jie and converged around him, greeting him warmly.

Lin Jie greeted them enthusiastically, "Hello, Aunt Wang!"

"Granny Zhao, you're looking stronger day by day!"

"Good morning, Uncle Qin!"

But as more and more people gathered around, Lin Jie had to rely on Qin Gang to block them, allowing just a tiny bit of space to move around.

"The free consultation event starts at nine o'clock in the morning, please wait patiently and don't rush yet!"

Yang Leyi and committee member Qin shouted as they squeezed into the crowd, pulling Lin Jie and Qin Gang out with great effort, leading them into a tent.

Committee member Qin, sweating from his nose and forehead, used a few promotional leaflets as fans, fanning himself while happily saying, "Five days ago, the residents committee issued notice to inform them of this free consultation event."

"Now, we've heard that you've become a specially appointed medical expert at the Affiliated Hospital, and it's spread around. I guess a lot of people came to see the doctor today, many might have brought their relatives and friends."

"When the free consultation starts, my colleagues from the committee and I will be responsible for maintaining order."

Lin Jie smiled and said, "Thank you, committee member Qin and all the comrades!"

"There's no need for thanks, it's our job to serve the residents, doing good things!"

Committee member Qin looked at Lin Jie, who was about his height, and sighed, "Lin Jie, you're truly a model of 'three days apart, one should look at you with new eyes'!"

At this moment, Yang Leyi handed Lin Jie a promotional leaflet and said, "This is our promotional leaflet, each person will get one later!"

Lin Jie found the leaflet printed with an illustration of Anlin Hospital, along with an introduction to the charity fund, its website, and some small tips on preventing common diseases.

Just then, a medium bus drove into the small plaza.

After the vehicle stopped, Tian Xiangyu, Fang Huanru, Xiao Ganghao, and others dressed in white coats got off the bus one by one, carrying simple diagnostic tools such as stethoscopes, blood pressure monitors, and electronic thermometers!

After them, another four people got off.

Three of them were Gao Yanhong, Huo Guangheng, and Guo Peng, and the last person was a slightly short girl with a slightly dark complexion, short ear-length hair, a melon-seed face, looking quite refined.

Lin Jie thought to himself, "The efficiency of this team is really high, just one day later, they've already switched personnel."

These four people were also dressed in white coats, with ordinary clothes underneath.

In a whoosh, the dozen or so people came to Lin Jie's side, quietly waiting for his instructions!

Lin Jie said solemnly, "During the free consultation event, we need to diagnose the health condition of the residents."

"If we find any health issues, we should only offer consultation advice, not prescribe medication, and suggest they visit clinics or hospitals for further examination and diagnosis, understood?"

The group responded in unison, "Understood!"

"Tian Xiangyu, Fang Huanru, Xiao Ganghao!"

Lin Jie named the three and said, "You'll each lead a group, divide into three teams, with three to four people per team, each occupying a tent!"

"Everyone in each group will work together to diagnose the same person, but only one person can be the primary diagnostician, with the authority to ask questions regarding the patient's medical history and physical feelings, and make the final judgment!"

His gaze slowly swept across the crowd, and he said softly, "During this process, others in the group should not speak. However..."

"Once the diagnosis is complete, if anyone has questions or doubts, they can raise them on the spot for a re-examination."

"If it's confirmed that the primary diagnostician made an oversight or error, they'll be replaced immediately; if no issues arise, they'll continue in their role!"

"Do you understand what I just said?"

"Yes!"

Everyone responded loudly once again, their eyes twinkling with excitement, eagerly looking at their classmates.

They all understood that this free clinic was both a medical practice and a fierce competition. When Lin Jie was involved, nothing was ever simple.

"Mr. Lin!"

Fang Huanru raised her hand and asked, "What if there's a disagreement and we can't agree on the results?"

Lin Jie replied calmly, "I'll make the final decision!"

After waiting for a while and seeing that they had no more questions, Lin Jie said, "I'm sure you're all aware that next week, I'll be competing in a surgery with Dr. Xia Kaixuan."

"The two who perform the best this time will be allowed to observe the surgery up close in the operating room."

Upon hearing this, Lin Jie felt the atmosphere intensify slightly, as everyone's gaze sharpened.

Lin Jie smiled inwardly, seeing his goal achieved, and waved his hand gently, saying, "We'll likely have many residents coming today! If you have no further questions, let's get started!"

"Yan Beichen, you're with me!"

Almost as Lin Jie spoke, Tian Xiangyu, Fang Huanru, and Xiao Ganghao shouted in unison.

Yan Beichen was momentarily stunned, then smiled happily, his eyes narrowing, as he shouted, "Thank you, Senior Brother Tian! Thank you, Senior Sister Fang! Thank you for your confidence in me!"

She then appeared conflicted, saying, "Who should I choose? Choosing anyone will hurt the other two's feelings!"

Song Licheng couldn't stand it anymore!

He cleared his throat and chided, "Yan Beichen, don't be so narcissistic, okay? They all chose you because, relatively speaking, you're the weakest, the least capable, okay?"

"Don't forget, according to Mr. Lin's method, we have to compete with each other."

With this reminder, Yan Beichen also seemed to realize, her face fell, and she pitifully asked, "Senior Sister Fang, Senior Brother Tian, Senior Brother Xiao, is what Song Licheng said true?"

"The weather is really nice today!" Tian Xiangyu looked up at the sky!

Fang Huanru concurred, "Not a cloud in sight!"

Xiao Ganghao closed his eyes slightly, with an expression of enjoyment, "The gentle breeze..."

Yan Beichen was infuriated, flailing her arms and shouting, "Ah... ah... you three, you're too much!"

"You've made me really angry..."

Lin Jie ignored their grouping and antics, and waved Guo Peng, Huo Guangheng, Gao Yanhong, and two others to a relatively secluded corner of the small square.

The unfamiliar woman, upon seeing Lin Jie's gaze, immediately stood at attention, saying, "Hello, Mr. Lin!"

"I'm He Yimin, replacing Xia Yu, and I'm honored to learn from you!"

Lin Jie nodded slightly in greeting, then said to the four, "If you don't wish to study under me, you can tell me now!"

"I can notify your superiors and arrange for you to be replaced."

Huo Guangheng stood at attention, saying, "Mr. Lin, in learning, there's no precedence; the accomplished are prioritized. We all greatly admire your talent, it's our fortune to learn from you."

Gao Yanhong and Guo Peng also expressed, "It's our fortune!"

Lin Jie chuckled, saying, "I'll put the words upfront. If you choose to leave now, I can say nice things to your leaders."

"Once this opportunity passes..."

He suddenly turned cold, threatening, "If you can't meet my requirements, if you can't satisfy me, I'll ruthlessly dismiss you and send you back."

"At that time, there might be an unfavorable record left on your files!"

Huo Guangheng once again stood at attention, saying, "Mr. Lin, we don't fear your strictness, we fear you won't be strict!"

"We came here to learn, not to vacation!" Guo Peng shouted!

Gao Yanhong also stated, "As long as we don't die from exhaustion, nothing can break us!"

He Yimin, not wanting to be outdone, said, "Mr. Lin, let the storm come more fiercely!"

Lin Jie was exasperated, saying, "Don't go shouting these slogans randomly."

"For today, you won't join them in the free clinic. Take this opportunity to let me assess your respective expertise in medical knowledge!"

He pointed at He Yimin, saying, "You go first!"

"Let me ask you, if a patient has a low fever of thirty-eight degrees nine and persistent diarrhea..."
