Chapter 2929: with translation of chapter title
Quite a scene of chickens flying and dogs jumping.
Just now Gao Shaojie didn't understand what use they had for the steel wire balls, but when the women started scratching with their fingernails, he understood.
The steel wire balls are specially made, not too sharp, but when fingernails scrape the face, the force is hard to control. A sweep of the steel wire ball held in the palm leaves a row of red marks on the face. Neither too light nor too heavy, it causes no real injury, yet it is disgusting.
Gao Shaojie watched, heart pounding with fear.
Those women shouted curses, just like a wife catching her husband's mistress and beating her desperately. But if you look closely, you can see they have their limits, just shouting loudly without really striking hard.
Moreover, the 'third party' here is a woman in her forties and an elderly lady in her sixties; nobody would believe it if said aloud. Yet the more so, the more curious the onlookers became, and the crowd grew larger.
The style of magical realism was rendered extremely lifelike by Director Dahungya, leaving everyone stunned.
Regarding this matter… even when the police arrived, they didn't know what to do.
A riot? A few women fighting over the mistress—could that be considered a mass brawl?
Besides, if the police dared to arrest people, Gao Shaojie was sure these women would dare to strip and charge at them, leaving the police embarrassed.
By then, a video would spread online…
Cough, cough—this kind of thing isn't worth dying over, but it's disgusting. For such a trivial matter, it's not worth using heavy-handed tactics.
From then on, Gao Shaojie looked at Dahungya with new eyes.
This guy handles things very meticulously—he doesn't act himself, only gives covert advice from behind, sly and deceitful, wicked to the point of festering sores on his feet.
It took a full half hour of chaos before the ward finally quieted down.
Those few troublemakers were driven away by Dahungya in a way ordinary people couldn't imagine, leaving them disheveled and bloodied.
Is this fighting violence with violence? Gao Shaojie thought not. Yet he didn't know how to describe it, for everything Dahungya did from start to finish exceeded his worldview.
This is the way things are done in another world—without even touching the legal bottom line, solving problems through disgusting, shameless, filthy, and absurd means.
With strong security guarding the rear, Dahungya exposed the ghostly tricks, and finally, adding a group of shouting women, turned the whole affair into what we see now.
Gao Shaojie shook his head.
After clearing the scene, Dahungya strutted about, inspecting the crowd as if he'd won a great victory. Gao Shaojie and Liu Zewei exchanged glances and sighed in unison.
Using despicable means to settle a despicable matter, this Dahungya seems not entirely useless.
Beside him, Professor Qin also stared dumbfounded, watching the orderlies clean up the garbage on the floor, including the copper basin used for lighting.
After Dahungya swaggered around in a circle and returned to Liu Zewei's front, he slightly turned his body to also accommodate Gao Shaojie.
"Reporting Director Liu, mission accomplished!" Dahungya gave another nonstandard salute.
"Thank you." Liu Zewei felt a bitterness in his mouth; though reluctant, he still thanked for this matter.
"Isn't this all just what should be done?" Dahungya immediately resumed his jianghu bearing, bowing slightly, the earlier arrogance gone: "You two have worked for Zheng Lao Ban before, Professor Gao is still in Di Du, so it's only right for me to do something on this side."
When Zheng Lao Ban was mentioned, the expressions of Gao Shaojie and Liu Zewei both became solemn.
"Those damned… swindlers are just petty tricks; they surely can't see what's in your eyes. You two taking care of this is just wasting time." Dahungya said politely.
"Captain Huang, let's talk in my office." Liu Zewei said with a smile.
Turning around, he saw Professor Qin not far away still staring blankly at the orderlies cleaning; he walked over coldly and said indifferently, "What kind of messed-up patients are you admitting? Is this how you manage the ward?"
Having said that, Liu Zewei didn't wait for Qin's reply, went to his own office, opened the door and entered.
Gao Shaojie glanced at Professor Qin and thought it was better not to be a director; Old Liu could put on a stern face, but he couldn't.
What about the future of Di Du's hepatobiliary department? Zhou Chun Yong wants to train himself as the successor… Gao Shaojie feels a bit troubled. But that's years away; if needed, he could ask Professor Su.
He smiled and followed Liu Zewei into the office.
Formerly, this office belonged to Director Jin, and Gao Shaojie remembers it vividly. When he first arrived at the Medical University Affiliated Hospital, he often got scolded in this office.
Now it's Liu Zewei's office, and the feeling is really different.
Entering the office, Gao Shaojie sat on Liu Zewei's bed, leaving the chair for Dahungya. Seeing Dahungya's disheveled appearance, he guessed that if Dahungya sat on Liu Zewei's bed, Old Liu would feel nauseous for a month.
"Captain Huang, please have a seat." Liu Zewei said cheerfully, "Would you like some water?"
"Director Liu, don't stand on ceremony." Dahungya plopped down in the chair opposite Liu Zewei, showing no sign of respect.
Liu Zewei also knew that if this guy were to express respect toward him—bowing, being polite, etc. —it would only be out of deference to Zheng Lao Ban.
As a department head of the Medical University Affiliated Hospital, he actually had less influence on Captain Huang than Zheng Lao Ban far away in Di Du did—saying this really left him feeling a bit gloomy.
But Liu Zewei didn't dwell on it; that was Zheng Lao Ban, and he simply couldn't compare.
"Captain Huang, do you also study medicine?" Liu Zewei asked with a chuckle.
"Ah, isn't it because I've been sick a few times this year? I went to Di Du to see Zheng Lao Ban for treatment—you saw that." Dahungya grinned, "The last time I played the 'ghost knocking on the door' stunt, Zheng Lao Ban told me that if I kept going like this, I'd surely die."
Gao Shaojie listened quietly; he hadn't experienced this and didn't know what 'ghost knocking on the door' meant. But he could sense from Dahungya's tone a deep fear, and his reverence for Zheng Lao Ban was evident.
Even when Zheng Lao Ban wasn't present, just uttering those three words made Dahungya instinctively sit up straight, no longer slouching.
Being a doctor and having such prestige is truly not easy, Gao Shaojie thought.
"Since I came back, I haven't engaged in any jianghu tricks, especially after Zheng Lao Ban won the Nobel Prize." Dahungya said seriously, "He's no ordinary person; I reckon if I kept acting up, I'd really be done for."
"Heh." Liu Zewei gave a dry laugh.
"You really shouldn't laugh." Dahungya said, "I haven't been idle lately; I've just looked up the origins of some jianghu tricks."
