Chapter 595: Chapter 595: Visiting the Sanatorium

Twelve people disappeared, and several of them had health check-ups here?

How is that possible?!

Old Bai continued to explain, "I just asked my dad about what exactly this health check-up deal is."

"Apparently, in recent years, the Thousand-Year Sanatorium has been in contact with many communities, organizing free check-ups for individuals without fixed occupations."

"But this Thousand-Year Sanatorium actually charges exceptionally high fees, and their medical techniques are outstanding. I just checked online; this sanatorium is one of the most expensive in Haizhou City."

"To be admitted for care here, you either need to be of noble status or hold a high position at work."

"Or be wealthy, with a net worth of over ten million to possibly get in."

"When I accompanied my dad for his check-up, I saw their doctors; many are foreign experts they hired."

"You can tell they are pretty impressive."

"It feels awe-inspiring even if you don’t fully understand it."

While Old Bai was speaking, Lu Chuan wasn’t idle.

He took out his phone and snapped several photos of some forms.

Although Lu Chuan had never been to the Thousand-Year Sanatorium, he knew that such private institutions charge extremely high fees.

Qiangsheng Group has its own health check-up facilities and private hospitals.

Besides catering to the group internally, they also serve the public, but the fees are indeed very high.

However, these high fees have their justifications; Qiangsheng Group hires powerful experts from abroad to consult at their hospitals.

The medical standard is considered one of the top in Haizhou City.

Additionally, Qiangsheng Group’s private hospitals also offer free services to some partners.

They sometimes provide special services for individuals in special positions, similar to the Thousand-Year Sanatorium.

But how could such a sanatorium truly offer free services to ordinary people?

Just like Old Bai said, only those worth millions can enter such a sanatorium.

And what about the identities of the twelve missing persons? Lu Chuan is very clear about their economic conditions after these days of investigation.

Their annual salaries wouldn’t even cover a single check-up project here.

In the days following the incident, the Criminal Investigation Team has been focusing on identifying any commonality or connection among the twelve individuals, but unfortunately, there have been no leads.

Other than calls from two public phone booths, all other information has been very vague.

Males, aged between 30 and 40, without fixed occupations.

These are common traits, but there are far too many people who meet these criteria, lacking specificity.

And now...

Old Bai has discovered a common trait.

These people...

Seem to have all participated in the Thousand-Year Sanatorium’s check-up!

"Let’s go!" 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

Lu Chuan didn’t take the forms beside the check-in machine.

These forms were all printed, leaving them here wouldn’t be a big issue in itself.

However, if the twelve missing persons were indeed related to this sanatorium, taking these forms with him could very well alert the enemy if discovered.

"Brother Bai, you should take your father back first, and refrain from coming to this sanatorium for check-ups in the future. Head to Qiangsheng Group’s health check-up center; I’ll make a call."

Old Bai still had things to attend to, and Lu Chuan quickly made arrangements.

"What about you?"

"Me?"

At the sanatorium entrance, after sending Old Bai and his father off, Lu Chuan turned to look at the gates of the sanatorium.

"I need to do a health check-up here!"

...

The check-up equipment within the Thousand-Year Sanatorium is indeed excellent, and Lu Chuan feels it’s no worse than Qiangsheng Group’s health check-up center.

Moreover, they have a unique set of service standards.

Of course, Lu Chuan’s check-up couldn’t possibly be free; he had to pay.

The Thousand-Year Sanatorium offers various check-up packages, and Lu Chuan chose one, which cost him 70,000 yuan.

This price, undoubtedly, is quite high.

There weren’t many people in the check-up center, and all individuals followed smart guides to complete their check-ups.

Each person had different check-up items, and after each was completed, their mobile would automatically prompt them for the next.

No need to queue; they could go straight for checks.

Since Lu Chuan had already eaten in the morning, naturally, he couldn’t partake in any fasting-required check-up items.

He intentionally didn’t choose blood tests and the like, opting instead for things such as bone density measurements.

"Nurse, what’s that area over there?"

At the extensive floor-to-ceiling window of the check-up center, after just completing an ECG, Lu Chuan inquired.

A nurse was seen pushing a wheelchair out on the opposite side.

"Oh, that’s our recuperation area."

"Really? I heard earlier that our Thousand-Year Sanatorium has exceptional standards."

"My father is getting older, and his health isn’t great, so I’ve been thinking of finding a care institution for him; I wonder if yours would work?"

Upon hearing this, the nurse’s smile widened even more.

The individuals who came here for check-ups, besides following the mobile’s smart guidance for medical tests, each had a nurse to accompany them throughout.

The nurse with Lu Chuan was responsible for overseeing his check-up.

According to her introduction, she graduated from Haizhou City First People’s Hospital Affiliated University.

She majored in nursing, and even pursued graduate studies.

Truth be told, the young nurse wasn’t only professionally competent; she was highly educated, and quite lovely.

With a tall figure and a sweet smile, her large eyes seemed to form crescents when she smiled.

There were naturally no doubts in the nurse’s mind about Lu Chuan’s financial capacity.

Who would spend 70,000 yuan on a health check-up without ample funds?

Moreover, the young lady noticed when he carded in earlier.

Lu Chuan used a black card.

The nurse had seen that kind of card a few times before; those who could use it were all worth over a billion.

In fact, when Lu Chuan was carding in earlier, he intentionally didn’t use mobile payment but opted for his credit card to demonstrate his financial capacity.

Sure enough, it was useful now.

"Mr. Lu, you’ve got it right; our Thousand-Year Sanatorium’s facilities, recuperation levels, and service standards are absolutely world-class."

"Not only can one enjoy five-star care services here, but more importantly, we have a medical and care team of world-leading standards."

"Any situation that arises during a stay here is handled by our medical team at the earliest opportunity."

"Many wealthy individuals in Haizhou City, and even some retired old leaders, are enjoying their retirement with us."

"So, if you have time later, I could show you around?"

At this moment, the nurse was looking at Lu Chuan with glowing eyes.

The Thousand-Year Sanatorium isn’t a charity, so of course, it has to earn money.

As such, every staff member in the sanatorium is able to introduce clients to the facility.

And each client commission could range from tens of thousands to at least twenty or thirty thousand.

So presently, the young nurse was extremely excited.

Although she had decent professional skills and high academic qualifications, she was considered mid-tier at the Thousand-Year Sanatorium.

With average innate conditions and no connections to wealthy or top officials, she had never earned any commission.

Now, if successful, she could earn a good sum, right?
