Overpowered Resident Doctor-Chapter 91: Accepting and Encouraging Virtue

The little girl on the screen had a sweet smile and a faint dimple on her left cheek.

Yan Feifan looked at the photo with a sense of déjà vu.

A feeling like that doesn't come from nowhere.

Coupled with the broadcast about the missing girl echoing throughout the shopping mall, Yan Feifan began to search his memory, trying to pinpoint the source of this familiarity…

"Feifan, what do you think of this bag on me? Does it look good?"

Yan Ziruo was wearing a shoulder bag, looking at herself in the mirror from every angle.

When she got no response, she turned to see her brother staring blankly at the large screen outside the store.

Yan Ziruo was used to seeing her brother zone out like this, so she didn't bother him.

Just as she was about to look away, she was surprised to see Yan Feifan suddenly take off and run out of the store…

Yan Feifan had found the source of his feeling of familiarity.

A few minutes earlier, as they were getting out of the mall elevator, they had seen a young couple with a stroller waiting outside.

The mischievous and active Tian Yu had bolted out of the elevator, nearly bumping into the couple's stroller, which had a panda pattern on it.

Yan Feifan had glanced at the stroller.

Inside, a two or three-year-old child was lying down, wearing a small blue hat. A small blue blanket was half-covering the child's face, who was sleeping with their eyes closed.

Although he had only seen half a face, and with the eyes closed, comparing it now, Yan Feifan was certain.

That was the missing child from the broadcast.

Recalling that scene, he was sure this was more than just a simple case of a lost child.

Immediately, he ran out of the leather goods store and found a nearby mall checkout counter.

He spoke to the cashier inside, his tone clear and rapid. "I saw the missing child."

"About twelve minutes ago, in front of elevator six on the fourth floor. She was in a stroller with a panda pattern, pushed by a young couple."

The female cashier inside asked for confirmation, "Sir, are you sure you saw the missing child?"

Yan Feifan nodded. "I'm a surgeon. I don't misidentify people."

The cashier understood that it was better to be safe than sorry. Hearing how certain Yan Feifan was, she quickly picked up her walkie-talkie and reported it.

Over the walkie-talkie, Yan Feifan repeated his discovery, describing the time, location, the stroller's features, and the young couple's clothing, height, and appearance.

After doing that, Yan Feifan returned to his sister and Xiaoyu's side and continued to browse the mall with them…

This time, Yan Ziruo was fairly restrained in her shopping.

She only bought a bag that cost a few hundred yuan, treated Yu Suye and Tian Yu to some sweet green dumplings, cloud flake cakes, and other small snacks, and then headed home just after ten o'clock at night…

The next morning at seven o'clock, Yan Feifan arrived at the plastic surgery center director's office to find Mr. Wang arranging dozens of nose models of various sizes on his desk.

"The nose is the high point of our five facial features. It also determines the upper limit of our appearance..."

At this, Wang Chuan sized up Yan Feifan's nose and commented, "Your nasal bridge is straight and prominent, which is quite good. It's just that the tip of your nose, like your sister's, is a little on the large side."

"However, you're a man, so a large nose isn't a flaw."

He casually picked up a nose model and continued, "The quality of one's rhinoplasty technique can also be used as a measure of a plastic surgeon's skill level."

"Given that your next surgery is a nasal deformity correction, I'll start teaching you about the nose today..."

Wang Chuan's lesson for Yan Feifan lasted less than an hour before it was interrupted by unexpected visitors.

The uninvited guest was Vice President Liu Jin.

With him were a police officer in his thirties, and a father and son, one in his fifties or sixties and the other around thirty.

"Feifan, you did a good deed last night and didn't stick around for credit. Now, they've tracked you down because you revealed you were a surgeon."

A smiling Liu Jin pointed to the father and son and made the introduction. "Feifan, these two are Mr. Liu Xin and Mr. Liu Pan."

"They came specifically to thank you for what happened with their family member's kidnapping last night."

"Kidnapping?" Yan Feifan was a little surprised.

The father, Liu Xin, explained in a somber voice, "Mr. Yan, thanks to the timely and accurate information you provided, the mall staff were able to quickly identify the two individuals through surveillance."

"They discovered that the pair had already left the mall in a taxi before the broadcast was even announced."

"Fortunately, the mall's surveillance cameras recorded the taxi's license plate."

"The police contacted the taxi driver right away and learned that the two people and the child were still in the car."

"The driver remained calm and, following police instructions, drove the car directly to the police station."

"After an all-night interrogation..."

Liu Xin sighed softly. "It turns out those two knew the nanny from my hometown. They planned this together."

"Their plan was to secretly take the child while my wife and the nanny were at the mall last night, and then demand a ransom from us."

"They never expected that your timely and accurate information would foil their plot."

At this, Liu Xin glanced at his son, Liu Pan.

Liu Pan quickly pulled a thin envelope from his pocket and handed it over. "It's all thanks to your vigilance and kindness, Mr. Yan. Otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable."

"It's just a small token of our appreciation. It's not much, but please accept it!"

Yan Feifan quickly refused. "I just happened to be there, and it was a coincidence that I recognized her."

"It was nothing. There's no need for a reward."

Liu Xin, still shaken, said, "Mr. Yan, you must accept it. To you, it might have just been providing a piece of information."

"But to us, it's invaluable. I can't even bear to think about what could have happened… kidnappers killing their victims isn't unheard of these days..."

"Mr. Yan, you must take it."

Yan Feifan was about to refuse again when Liu Jin spoke up. "As the proverb goes, accepting a reward for a good deed encourages virtue in others. Feifan, just accept it."

Wang Chuan also chimed in, "It's not an unearned reward. Take it."

Seeing that both the vice president and the director had spoken, Yan Feifan "reluctantly" accepted the envelope. 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦

After a bit more small talk, the father and son, Liu Xin and Liu Pan, took their leave, escorted by Mr. Liu.

To Yan Feifan's surprise, the police officer didn't leave with them.

The officer, who had dark skin, a square face, and sharp, defined eyebrows, smiled at Yan Feifan and said in a clear voice, "Mr. Yan, I'm Zheng Libin from the district's criminal investigation team."

"I'm in charge of this case."

"Mr. Zheng, hello!"

Yan Feifan offered a polite greeting, then asked quizzically, "Is there something you need to ask me?"

Zheng Libin nodded. "For the interrogation, I reviewed all the relevant surveillance footage from the mall."

"I noticed that your paths only crossed with the two suspects for about three or four seconds..."

At that, Wang Chuan interrupted, "Officer, please don't get the wrong idea. Mr. Yan would never be involved with criminals."

"The reason he remembers it so clearly is because he has a superhuman memory. He never forgets what he sees."

"Ah, so that's how it is!"

Zheng Libin exclaimed, then quickly explained, "Please, don't misunderstand. I don't suspect him at all."

"It's just that when I saw that surveillance clip, I knew Mr. Yan must have an extraordinary ability to recognize and identify people."

"So, I came here today to ask for your help, Mr. Yan."

"What kind of help?" Yan Feifan asked directly.

"We have a piece of surveillance footage, but the resolution is too low. I was wondering if you, Mr. Yan, could identify the person in the video from a few potential candidates?"

As he spoke, Zheng Libin handed over his phone.

Yan Feifan took the phone and saw a video playing on the screen. The person in the video was pixelated and blurry, and he could only make out the general outline of their facial features.

And within just six or seven seconds, the person walked out of the frame.

Next, Yan Feifan saw several photos of potential candidates that the officer had provided. They were all clear, front-facing headshots.

He shook his head. "The resolution is too blurry. I can't identify them."

"However..."

"However what?" Zheng Libin's face was full of anticipation.

Yan Feifan recalled the person's posture as they walked in the video. "If you can provide videos of these candidates walking normally, I should be able to identify them."

He explained, "Just as everyone's fingerprints and handwriting are different, each person's gait is also unique."

"Although you can't see the person's face clearly in the video, their body shape and the movements of their limbs while walking are still distinguishable."

"If I have videos to compare, I should be able to recognize them..."
