Chapter 367 The Brother-In-Law and the Youngest Uncle
Qin Haodong said with a smile, “Oh! Then I’ll thank you for my uncle!”
“You’re welcome. Your uncle is also Rubing’s uncle, so her uncle is my uncle.”
Zhang Hao had just made a little progress on his relationship with Wang Rubing. Of course, he would not let go of this opportunity to please him. Thus, he asked, “When will my uncle arrive?”
Qin Haodong said, “He’s arrived in Jiangnan City. He is currently with me, but I can’t leave when something needs to be done. I will let him go to meet you.”
Zhang Hao said, “Yes, I will wait for him at the gate of Guangren Hospital. However, you should tell me about my uncle, or I won’t recognize him when I see him later.”
Qin Haodong stifled a laugh and said, “My youngest uncle is 30 years old. His name is Tang Feng. I’ll tell him your phone number and let him call you.”
“Oh! I’ve written it down,” Zhang Hao suddenly responded before he asked, “My uncle is only 30 years old? Is he so young?”
“Uh… Well…” Qin Haodong had said that Tang Feng was his uncle temporarily. Unexpectedly, there was a flaw in his age. Thus, he quickly explained, “Uncle is the youngest son of the family, so he is naturally a little younger. However, he is also the most loved one. He has a very important position in his family. Whether you and my sister can succeed depends on him.”
Zhang Hao had no doubt about this. After all, it was normal that the eldest and youngest children had a big age gap in a big family.
Therefore, he said hastily, “I know. Don’t worry, I will work this out to his satisfaction!”
“Well, I’ll let my uncle come to you.”
Qin Haodong then hung up the phone. He couldn’t help laughing. Upon thinking of Zhang Hao’s behavior, he was amused. It served him right to dare to call me brother-in-law since he has no connection to me.
After solving the problem of entering Guangren Hospital, he called Lin Momo and said that he would leave Jiangnan City for a while and come back in a few days.
Then, he went to the service hall of the mobile communication business, bought a new cell phone, and used Tang Feng’s ID to buy a phone card. Next, he bought a suit and a pair of shoes at the nearby shopping mall. After wearing them, he changed identity without leaving any trace.
Now that he had changed identity, it was not convenient for him to go home and stay there these days. Thus, he drove to Guangren Hospital and found a hotel first. Then, he parked his car and walked to the gate of the hospital.
When everything was ready, he called Zhang Hao.
“Hello, I’m Tang Feng, Wang Rubing’s uncle. Is this Zhang Hao?”
“Uncle! This is Zhang Hao.” Upon hearing that it was Tang Feng, Zhang Hao became very polite. “Uncle, where are you? I’ll pick you up now.”
“I’m at the gate of the hospital!”
“Just wait a moment, I’ll be right there!”
Zhang Hao’s car was quite close by. After confirming Tang Feng’s identity, he trotted over to Qin Haodong and said pleasantly, “Hello, Uncle. I’m Zhang Hao.”
Qin Haodong pretended to be serious as he said, “Zhang Hao, did Qin Haodong tell you all about me?”
“Yes! Uncle, this hospital is run by our family. You can go to any department you want.”
“Is there a traditional Chinese medicine department here?”
Zhang Hao thought for a moment and said, “Yes, it seems that there is a traditional Chinese medicine department! However, the overall market of traditional Chinese medicine is stagnant, so it’s not very good.
It’s said that Hua Zian, an old Chinese medicine practitioner in charge of the Chinese medicine clinic, once saved my grandfather’s life, so my father kept the Chinese medicine department. Otherwise, it would have been shut down.”
Qin Haodong said, “I’m a student of traditional Chinese medicine. You can lead me there.”
“No problem, I’ll take you there immediately. Although the old man has a bad temper, he will take my recommendation.”
“It’s not necessary. I’ll just go to work myself tomorrow,” Qin Haodong said, “I came to Jiangnan City without telling my family. Don’t tell Rubing now. I’ll tell her later. Also, don’t talk about our relationship with others in the hospital. I’m a humble person, and I like to do things on my own.”
“I understand! I understand!” In Zhang Hao’s opinion, Wang Rubing’s uncle just couldn’t lose face. Thus, he said, “Well, I’ll go find Doctor Hua and tell him about it. Then, I’ll go to the personnel department to record this. You can find a place to rest while you wait for my call.”
He took Qin Haodong’s file bag, turned around, and entered the hospital. Meanwhile, Qin Haodong returned to the hotel.
Zhang Hao first went to the personnel department of the hospital. Since the hospital was run by his family, he was the owner and he had discourse power. Thus, it was easy for him to employ a doctor at the hospital. Naturally, the director of the personnel department had no objections. Regardless of whether he was a Chinese medicine practitioner or a Western medicine practitioner, he would be paid by the Zhang family, so Qin Haodong’s commencement procedure was soon completed.
Afterward, he went to the traditional Chinese medicine department of the hospital.
Guangren Hospital was the leading private hospital in Jiangnan City and had an annual reception capacity of more than 100,000 people. Along with public hospitals, such as Jiangnan Hospital and Central Hospital, Guangren Hospital was the largest hospital around.
Even so, it was not easy for its traditional Chinese medicine department to exist. There were not many patients or much profit. Many people in the hospital suggested that the department of traditional Chinese medicine should be closed. Zhang Lijun, the president of the hospital, kept the department running because he was thankful for Hua Zian.
Although the traditional Chinese medicine department was preserved, it was also placed in the most inconspicuous corner of the top floor of the hospital.
“Uncle Hua, I’m here!”
After entering, Zhang Hao addressed an old man who was nearly 70 years old. He was the head of the traditional Chinese medicine department and the only doctor there.
Although Zhang Hao was a playboy usually, he was very polite to Hua Zian because of his grandfather.
There were currently no patients in the clinic. Hua Zian, who was reading an old medical book, looked up at Zhang Hao and spoke up.
“It’s you. How come you thought of me today?”
Zhang Hao said with a smile, “Uncle Hua, I’m here to see you!”
“If you have something to say, let it go. You must have something to do. Otherwise, you wouldn’t have come to see me.”
Hua Zian was considered a famous stubborn old man in the entire hospital. He had a bad temper, and he was not even polite to Zhang Hao.
Zhang Hao said, “Uncle Hua, I have a friend who is also a Chinese medicine practitioner. He would like to come here and learn from you. What do you think?”
Hua Zian had no children, so he had devoted his whole life to traditional Chinese medicine. He naturally had no objection to Zhao Hao adding employees to the traditional Chinese medicine department.
“Okay, you can ask him to come tomorrow. I will try my best to teach him.”
“Okay, Uncle Hua. I’ll tell him now.”
Zhang Hao left the clinic and called Qin Haodong.
“Uncle, I have completed your task. I will take you to the traditional Chinese medicine department at 8 o’clock tomorrow morning.”
Qin Haodong said, “Well, I can come there on my own. Thank you.”
Zhang Hao quickly said, “It’s okay! You are welcome! Your business is my business. If you have any other needs, just tell me.”
After hanging up the phone, Qin Haodong simply had dinner. Then, he took out his furnace to refine the pills now that he was alone.
Although there was no help from the little fellow’s Phoenix Fire, the level of the pills he was refining was not high. As a result, it went well. When it was about midnight, he took the pills he had refined into the Storage Ring and went to bed.
The next day, he went to the traditional Chinese medicine department of Guangren Hospital early. When he entered, he told Hua Zian, “Senior Hua, my name is Tang Feng. Zhang Hao asked me to report here.”
Hua Zian was still looking at his shabby medical book. After seeing Qin Haodong, he just nodded and asked the young nurse to give a brand-new white gown to Qin Haodong. Then, he continued to read.
In his opinion, there were only two kinds of people: those who loved traditional Chinese medicine and those who didn’t love traditional Chinese medicine. If Qin Haodong loved traditional Chinese medicine, he would be willing to teach everything he had learned in his life even without his relationship with Zhang Hao. If Qin Haodong didn’t love traditional Chinese medicine and had just gone there to have a meal, despite his relationship with Zhang Hao, he would show no mercy.
Of course, Qin Haodong hadn’t come to learn Chinese medicine. Given his medical skills, no one in the whole world could be his teacher.
After changing clothes, he took out his cell phone and sent a message to Nalan Wuxia, telling her that he had successfully entered the traditional Chinese medicine department of Guangren Hospital.
After waiting for a long time, he received Nalan Wuxia’s reply. It was so short that it only contained one word. “OK!”
Qin Haodong didn’t think much of it. Three murders had happened in a row. Nalan Wuxia was under great pressure, so she had to be busy solving the case.
After sitting for a while, he noticed that the traditional Chinese medicine department was really deserted. There were no patients. Thus, he stood up and walked out of the door.
While looking at his back, Hua Zian couldn’t help shaking his head. He didn’t think this young man could learn traditional Chinese medicine earnestly. He was disappointed.
However, Qin Haodong had gone out with a purpose. Since Nalan Wuxia was busy, he couldn’t be idle. All three victims had lived in Guangren Hospital, which showed that the murderer was well aware of their information. They had been selected victims.
This meant that the murderer must have inquired about their data before he had committed the murders. He must have used the archive. Upon thinking of this, he found a corner and called Qi Waner.
“Waner, can you help me check the records of the archive of Guangren Hospital to see who has inquired about the information of the archive?”
“Wait a moment.”
Qi Waner typed wildly on the laptop. Soon, she said, “The archive of Guangren Hospital is not connected to the Internet, so I can’t find anything.”
“You can’t?” Qin Haodong was disappointed. However, he then asked, “You are a computer expert. Is there any other way?”
Qi Waner said, “Guangren Hospital is physically isolated from the Internet. There is no access whatsoever. No matter how much of a professional I am, I can’t help you. No matter how good a racer is, can he run without a road?”
“Oh! Well, I’ll think of another way!”
Qin Haodong hung up and turned around in the corridor. Since Qi Waner couldn’t help him, he had to go to the archive to check.
Guangren Hospital was very large, so the archive room was in a small building next to the main building. Qin Haodong went down the building and stepped into the archive room.
It was almost as quiet there as in the traditional Chinese medicine department. Few people came for business. At the reception, a young nurse was watching a TV show on her cell phone while eating chips.
The nurse’s name was Zhang Tingting. She was pretty and she looked young, but she was a little fat. She looked like she weighed about 75 or 80 kilos, so she hadn’t found a boyfriend yet.
“Hello, lady!”
The nurse was 26 years old. Thus, Qin Haodong had naturally called her a lady.
Zhang Tingting, who was not happy, said with dissatisfaction, “How can you call me a lady? I am a girl who’s younger than you.”
