Open a Clinic to Cultivate Myself Chapter 39 A Secret Talk in the Bathroom

The light returned to the experimental zone and the office. Ning Tao even found a first aid kit after he turned on the switch. This time he did not take his medicine chest with him, but took a d Sacred Needle for a rainy day. The Sacred Needle could not only be used to heal people, but also could be used to punish the wicked person. Therefore, it had now become a must-have stuff for when he got out.

Back at the office, Ning Tao returned the knocked couch to its original place and lifted Lin Qingyu off the floor and put her on it. She had a dart in her left breast, and fortunately it was not very deep.

Under the light, the dart glowed cold, but it was not as striking as what it hit.

"Why did it hurt her in this part of her body?" It was a headache for Ning Tao, but he soon found a reason to convince himself. "I'm a doctor. What am I embarrassed about? Nothing is more important than the health and life of the patient."

A doctor taking off his patient's clothes was not in the ordinary sense of the word.

Ning Tao picked up a paper knife, sterilized it with alcohol, and then carefully cut open Lin Qingyu's evening dress. A bra made of a fleshy hemispherical fabric and a sponge exposed to his eyes. The dart went right into her bra and bit into her skin. Anyway, Lin Qingyu was not badly hurt.

In that case, thanks to the phone's blocking of the dart, which caused most of the impact to be cancelled out, and her bra, which served as a "bullet-proof shield" and cancelled out some of the rest impact, she would otherwise have been stabbed to death.

Taking a deep breath, Ning Tao reached out, grabbed the tail of the dart, and then lifted it.

As the dart was pulled out of the wound, a stream of blood rushed out. The bright red blood on Lin Qingyu's white skin made a bewitching and attractive picture.

"Whew!" Lin Qingyu suddenly woke up under the pain. Upon seeing Ning Tao, she unconsciously asked, "Where's the old man?"

"Don't worry, the old man has already escaped and you are safe now," Ning Tao replied. "Lie still while I treat your wound."

Lin Qingyu suddenly realized something and sat up on the couch with her arms supported. At the same time, her eyes turned to her chest. A second later, she let out a scream. "Ah—"

Ning Tao was so startled by her scream that the dart in his hand fell to the floor with a plink.

Attracted by the crisp sound, Lin Qingyu looked at the dart stained with her blood.

"Relax, I'm treating you," Ning Tao said. "Lie down, your wound is still bleeding. I'll take care of it for you."

Upon hearing his words, Lin Qingyu sat up straight on the couch and stared at Ning Tao with her big black eyes.

"Your wound is still bleeding and must be treated," Ning Tao braced himself and told Lin Qingyu. "Will you undress yourself, or shall I help you?"

"Is it deep?"

"No," replied Ning Tao.

"Then you tell me what to do and I'll take care of it myself," Lin Qingyu said. "Turn around and don't look at me."

Ning Tao thought for a moment and agreed, "All right, it's not deep. You can handle it by yourself." Then he turned around and waited for Lin Qingyu to ask him what to do.

"Is the dart poisoned?" Lin Qingyu's voice sounded.

"Why do you ask?" Ning Tao questioned curiously.

"The martial artists in the movies like using poisoned darts. Is, is the dart hit me poisoned?"

Then Ning Tao picked up the dart from the floor and sniffed it. He did not smell the poison on the dart before, but Lin Qingyu's concern caused his anxiety, so he wanted to confirm again.

"What if it's poisoned?" Lin Qingyu got nervous again.

"What do people handle it in the movies?" Ning Tao shot back.

The scene of a chivalrous martial artist sucking poison blood out of the wound suddenly came to Lin Qingyu's mind, and she blushed all of a sudden. "Is, is it really poisoned?"

Ning Tao laughed and answered, "Don't worry. It's not poisonous."

"You..." Lin Qingyu glared at Ning Tao as if she wanted to jump on him and bite him, but this little joke made her completely relaxed and no longer nervous.

Ning Tao then changed the subject. "You take off your... Well, take a cotton ball dipped in alcohol to clean the wound, then put it on the wound, and fixed it with tape."

As these words were spoken, he heard a rustling sound behind him, and then a groan of pain between the clenched teeth.

Ning Tao couldn't control his mind to imagine the scene behind him, and a strange idea came to him. "If I told her that the dart was poisoned, would she..."

He dared not think any more, feeling a little uncomfortable.

However, it was just a man's fantasy in some way, which was a natural reaction. In reality, he would never do that.

After a good while, Lin Qingyu said, "Doctor Ning, would you mind lending me your jacket?"

Ning Tao immediately took off his jacket and turned to give it to Lin Qingyu.

"Ah!" Lin Qingyu let out a yelp and turned her back on Ning Tao. "You, you turn around!" she cried in panic.

"Sorry, sorry, I didn't see anything." Ning Tao threw his jacket on the couch and immediately turned his back on her.

Lin Qingyu went to Ning Tao after putting on the jacket. "Now what should we do?" she inquired.

"Call the police," replied Ning Tao. "In this situation, you and your brother are in danger, and even your parents can be targeted."

Lin Qingyu did not immediately respond to Ning Tao's proposal, looking a little hesitant.

"Calling the police might have an impact on Blueprint Biotechnology Company, causing you to lose some money. What's the use of money if you're killed? Besides, what your brother studied is very sensitive and even dangerous, or else there would not be such a horrifying person to rob it. If your brother's research violates the constitution, you will vindicate yourself by calling the police. But if the police come to you, it will be totally different."

Lin Qingyu remained silent for a moment before she said, "All right, I'll call the police."

A group of police arrived half an hour later, led by Wu Wenbo, the police chief who had helped Ning Tao out in front of the restaurant. There was Jiang Hao, of course, but she joined the crowd in an ordinary police uniform. She obviously did not want Lin Qingyu to know her real identity, so Ning Tao did not say hello to her.

In Lin Qinghua's office, Wu Wenbo took a statement from Lin Qingyu.

Ning Tao stood outside the door, waiting, wondering when to give Jiang Hao the hot potato in his pants pocket.

At this moment, Jiang Hao went to the bathroom.

Ning Tao hesitated to go with her, but he didn't know if she really wanted to go to the bathroom. If she did, he would be embarrassed to follow her. Just as he wondered, Jiang Hao looked back at him and gave him a wink. This was an obvious implication. Hence, he also walked toward the direction of bathroom.

Jiang Hao stopped at the sink, pretended to wash her hands, and asked, "Have you found anything?"

Ning Tao also stood in front of the sink pretending to wash his hands and replied, "I found another piece of 'clay' and a capsule..."

Before he could finish his sentence, Jiang Hao interrupted, "Come with me." Then she went straight into the ladies' room.

Ning Tao immediately froze on the spot, subconsciously looked at the door of the men's room. He was puzzled. Even if she wanted to keep it a secret, why would she go into the ladies' room when she could enter the men's room?

"Pshaw!" Suddenly Jiang Hao's cough came out of the ladies' room.

Ning Tao gave a bitter smile and went into the ladies' room with his head down.

"Show me that thing," said Jiang Hao anxiously.

Ning Tao pulled what he got out of his pocket and moaned, "Why did I have to come in? This is the ladies' room."

"Didn't you see a surveillance camera in the hallway? The sink is right in its range," Jiang Hao explained. "That's a very sensitive object and I can't reveal my identity, so we'd better be careful."

Ning Tao didn't really notice the surveillance camera. Relieved by Jiang Hao's explanation, he handed her the bluish "clay" got from the painting. This time he did a simple disposal of it—he put it in a plastic bag.

"Where is the capsule?" Jiang Hao asked, after a glance at the bag.

"It's in the 'clay'," Ning Tao replied.

Jiang Hao opened the bag, and seemed to take out the bluish "clay" and break it open to see the capsule.

Ning Tao stopped her in time. "Don't touch it. We don't even know what it is, and Lin Qinghua had that weird disease because of it."

Jiang Hao resisted the urge to touch the "clay". "What you gave me last time I've gave it to the academy of sciences," she stated. "I think the inspection report will be out soon. I guess there must be some secrets stored in that electronic device. The drug you found this time is very important. It may be the result of Lin Qinghua's project of ancestor seeking."

"I didn't get a chance to talk to you, and now I finally can tell you," Ning Tao said. "Lin Qingyu and I met an old security guard when we came. I didn't suspect him at first, but when I found the stuff, he cut off the power and attacked Lin Qingyu and me."

"Are you hurt?" Given her identity and mission, the most important thing for her should be information about the old man, but what she blurted out was her concern for Ning Tao.

"It's only a slight wound. I'm fine now."

"Good. I'm so sorry. I should have protected you, but I was afraid of alerting the enemy. So..." Jiang Hao felt a little guilty about Ning Tao. When she asked Ning Tao for help, she told him that he would not be in danger and that she would guarantee his personal safety. However, she did not expect that his first action would put him in danger.

Ning Tao smiled and said, "You don't have to apologize. I wonder if the surveillance cameras were working at that time. You go and investigate it. It's important to catch that old man as soon as possible. He's a real fighter, and more dangerous than the so-called Brother Meng."

Jiang Hao nodded and said, "Let's go out."

Then Ning Tao followed Jiang Hao out of the ladies' room. When he got back to the door of Lin Qinghua's office, a policeman came running over and nervously reported, "Chief Wu, we've gotten something new!"

Wu Wenbo, who was taking notes in the office, stopped writing and asked, "What is it?"

The policeman replied, "We found four bodies in the field of medicine behind the lab! Three of the bodies are in the security uniform, the other is stripped of his clothes."

Wu Wenbo's gaze shifted to Jiang Hao at the door, which seemed to be a look for direction.

Jiang Hao gave him a slight nod.

"Get two men to cordon off the crime scene first," Wu Wenbo ordered. "I'll call the medical examiner right away."

Jiang Hao then turned around and followed a cop away. As she passed Ning Tao she cast a glance at him.

Ning Tao got the message and followed her.

Lin Qingyu seemed to want to call Ning Tao, but she just moved her lips and didn't say anything.
