Special Forces Medic-Chapter 782 - 749: He Is the Enemy

The North District Police Station was shrouded in a strange atmosphere, filled with anxiety, fear, shock, and bewilderment, but mostly silence.

Those outside wanted to peek inside, but the presence of two beautiful women guarding the door deterred them. A few men sighed and wrung their hands, occasionally craning their necks to catch a glimpse inside.

Lian leaned against the door, with Xia Xue resting on her shoulder, her face filled with guilt, worry, and confusion. Seeing them, even the most curious would set aside their intentions, as no one would want to disrupt this sad atmosphere. Yet, the situation inside was not optimistic.

"Sister-in-law, do you really not need to send her to the hospital?" This was a matter of life and death. Master Shuai paced back and forth; dragging this out could cost a life.

The injured person was brought back, initially meant to be sent to a hospital. However, under Xiao Lin's insistence, she was brought to the police station. They were all policemen, not angels in white; the stark color difference in their attire also wouldn't save a life. Now the boss had locked himself in there with the injured person—what could he do?

"Don't worry, if Lin can't save her, no one else likely can either."

"What?" Master Shuai exclaimed, taken aback. What kind of logic was that? His boss was formidable, but this was something else. "Stop shouting and yelling there; it's annoying," Xia Xue frowned. She shouldn't have brought Dan Qing. Xiao Lin had explicitly said she shouldn't be out and about, and now she had caused major trouble. "Lian, do you think Dan Qing will be okay? I've really messed up this time," Xia Xue asked Lian woefully. Since the beginning, Xiao Lin hadn't said a word to her or even given any comfort; he must be angry.

"Dan Qing will be fine," Lian patted Xia Xue's head. Such comfort was weak and ineffective, leaving Xia Xue hanging her head.

Xiao Lin laid Dan Qing flat on the table, with Consort Ling guarding beside them. There were no external injuries, but internal injuries were even harder to manage. Placing two fingers on her pulse, the intermittent beats indicated her weak vitality. Although the kidney surgery was successful, however...

"Go get my silver needle; it's in the car outside." With no surgical tools or diagnostic equipment, Xiao Lin released her fingers. If possible, he hoped there was still a chance for remedy. Dan Qing's internal organs were fragile, and whether the impact from the heavy blow would heal depended entirely on herself.

The door was opened from within, with Consort Ling stepping out and closing it behind her.

"How is Dan Qing?" Xia Xue grabbed Consort Ling's hand. The latter glanced at him before walking to Xiao Lin's car, taking a box from inside and returning indoors.

"I need to change her clothing; you stand guard outside." No matter what, Dan Qing was a woman, and even under justified circumstances, she wouldn't want her body to be seen. Considering this, Xiao Lin asked Consort Ling to step out. "It's very safe here," Xiao Lin added when he saw Consort Ling hesitating.

"I'll just stand at the door."

As he undid Dan Qing's clothes, he saw she had kept her figure well. Her skin, perhaps due to practicing the Profound Lady Heart Scripture, was smooth and tender with a rosy glow. The dark eyes didn't linger but set about her body, pressing on several main acupressure points before bringing three fingers together to start needling into her abdominal area.

Every needle change took about fifteen minutes. As the frequency of needle changes increased, Xiao Lin's face grew paler. Dan Qing's situation was worse than he had anticipated, with signs of organ rupture from the double impact trauma. While the newly transplanted kidney wouldn't rupture, being still very fragile, it had shown signs of displacement, uncorrectable without surgery.

Anxiety at this moment made his hands heavier. The heart meridian shielded by inner strength could still be aided with silver needles, but the cracks needed surgical treatment.

Mu Rongyun drove into the courtyard of the North District Police Station, seeing a crowd at the entrance, with Xia Xue prominently standing out among them. He took off his sunglasses, grabbed the data from the passenger seat, and jumped out of the car.

Xu Ming squatted to the side. When the car drove into the courtyard, he had already seen Mu Rongyun, the kind of person who only showed up when something was up, but disappeared without a trace otherwise. His sudden appearance meant something was afoot, though he didn't see the woman beside him this time.

"Forensic Doctor Mu!" Xu Ming approached. "Is there an update?"

"Yes!" Mu Rongyun handed Xu Ming the image data and personal files. "What's going on here?"

"Mu Rongyun?" Lian watched Mu Rongyun warily, assessing that from his familiarity with the North District and the station chief here, Xiao Lin must be aware.

"Military Advisor!" Mu Rongyun walked up to Lian without waiting for Xu Ming to answer, catching a glimpse of Consort Ling guarding the door, sneering with a slight curl of his lips. "Long time no see."

"Military, Military Advisor!" Master Shuai shouted again, pulling Wang Xi and pointing at Lian. "Did he just call her Military Advisor? Tell me, did I hear wrong?"

"Hey, you're really noisy! No mistake, that strange doctor indeed called that woman Military Advisor; why are you fussing?"

"Military Advisor, Dragon Soul's Military Advisor, comparable to Zhuge Liang!" Master Shuai's explanation drew no attention as he looked at Lian with bright eyes. No wonder she always seemed silent and cold; such an identity was indeed extraordinary.

"Heh heh!" Lian chuckled twice, protecting Xia Xue behind her. "What are you doing here?"

Mu Rongyun smirked at Lian's tactics. "Official business!" He glanced inside. "In there?"

"What do you want to do?" Xia Xue didn't know Mu Rongyun, so naturally, when Lian pushed her behind, she instinctively regarded him as a bad guy.

"The Xia Family heiress? President of 'Rhine'!" Mu Rongyun's gaze fell on Xia Xue. "Take good care of your man."

"What do you mean?" After staring at her for a long time, Mu Rongyun tossed these words and then got in the car, driving away. "Lian, who is he?"

"Whenever you see him, stay far away, he is Xiao Lin's enemy." Lian watched the tail of Mu Rongyun's car leave the courtyard, deliberately concealing a layer of unknown relations. In the absence of clarity between enemy or friend, he was an enemy.

"Will he hurt Lin?" Xia Xue tilted her head. The man just now had a kind of hatred for Xiao Lin, a strong feeling that made Xia Xue believe Lian was hiding something, making her feel very hurt. "Lian, there's a secret between you and Lin."

"You're overthinking it."

The door opened outward, and Lian was a step faster than Xia Xue, rushing over. Xiao Lin was leaning against the door frame, took a step forward, his hand on Consort Ling's shoulder, his head resting against his back. Seeing this scene, Lian stopped.

"Is there a place to rest?" Lian turned and asked the person behind him.

Xia Xue looked worriedly at Xiao Lin, his pale face had no flush at all, and his lips were dry and cracked; he had used his Inner Strength again.

"Yes! At the back is our dormitory, you can use my room!" Xu Ming was the first to react, running to his room, tidying it up.

Consort Ling shrugged his shoulders and quickly moved, picking up Xiao Lin before anyone else could react. "I can't watch over you all today. If possible, please stay here, don't move around freely." As Consort Ling passed Xia Xue, his principle was simple: compared to them, the person in his hands was more important, whatever they wanted to do was fine; their life or death was not his concern.

"We don't need your protection." Consort Ling snorted, entered Xu Ming's room, and placed Xiao Lin on the bed. "We need to keep an eye on Dan Qing." Xia Xue quietly added so, as if explaining the previous words.

Lian lovingly took Xia Xue's hand, already used to dealing with people like Consort Ling. "Director Xu, could we find another room? This one can't be using the office all the time."

"The only independent room is mine. Why not rest in the dormitory for a while, then move to my room?" Xu Ming chuckled awkwardly, scratching his head.

"That will work, and can you also help me find a piece of wood about the size of a door?" Dan Qing saw Xia Xue enter the hall, noticing her frown, thinking that moving it would definitely cause some damage, but they couldn't keep taking up space.

"Are you going to use it to move the patient inside?" Like everyone, Xu Ming also doubted if their boss could treat that person.

"Yes!"

"Then just dismantle the door panel, kid, hurry up."

"Uh..." Lian was amused and helpless seeing these people so proactive. She turned and walked into the hall. "How is it?"

Xia Xue shook her head, completely unfamiliar with traditional Chinese medicine techniques. From a Western medicine perspective, someone in Dan Qing's condition needed immediate hospitalization for a full body check-up to know how to treat it. Just now, she was pressing around the kidney area, and a surge of Qi bounced back. "I think Lin just maintained her organ functions; hospitalization for examination is still necessary. It only shows signs of Dan Qing's internal organ rupture. She took two punches for me, sustaining attacks both front and back."

"It will be fine! Trust Xiao Lin, otherwise, he wouldn't just leave Dan Qing alone."

"Hmm, I know!"

The phone rang loudly in the bag at an inappropriate time. "Yao Zheng!" Xia Xue, looking at the phone number, asked Lian.

"Answer it!"

"District Chief Yao!" Xia Xue took a deep breath before opening her mouth to greet.

"Ah, President Xia, are you not at your residence?" Currently, Yao Zheng was standing in front of Xia Xue's hotel apartment, continually pressing the doorbell, but no one was responding.

"Are you now at our doorstep?"

"Ah! I heard you were taken away and was a bit worried, so I came over to check."

"Oh, it's nothing, I'm on my way back to the city center." Xia Xue casually made an excuse, and the person outside cooperatively honked the car horn twice. (To be continued. If you like this work, please visit Qidian.com to give recommendations and votes. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
