Chapter 338 The Crisis of Identity Exposure
The atmosphere in the ward suddenly became tense.
Several doctors in white coats walked in one after another. They spoke different languages and had different expressions—some were arrogant, some were dissatisfied, and some were puzzled.
When they learned that their employer wanted them to follow the orders of a clandestine underground doctor, the experts burst into laughter.
"Are you kidding me? We are world-class experts!" a blond, blue-eyed doctor said coldly in English.
"How dare someone who doesn't even dare to reveal their identity give them the right to order us around?" Another doctor with an Asian face frowned and echoed.
"Either save him—"
Suddenly, a cold voice came from the video, speaking in perfect Latin, clear and sharp.
"Either you all die together."
The entire ward fell silent instantly.
Latin is the common language of the medical community, and all the doctors present were fluent in it.
The threat behind those words sent a chill down their spines. They hadn't forgotten that they had all been coerced into joining that terrifying organization, and if they disobeyed and couldn't save the man on the sickbed, death might be their only fate.
The air froze for a few seconds.
Finally, an older neurosurgeon took a deep breath and spoke first: "...Okay, do as you say."
The surgery has officially begun.
Yan Lan's voice conveyed the instructions calmly and precisely through the internet.
She spoke slowly, but every word carried an unquestionable authority.
"The intracranial pressure monitoring value is abnormal. Decompression should be performed on patient number 1 first."
"Blood oxygen saturation has decreased. Adjust ventilator parameters in position 2."
"The third rib is fractured and displaced. Be careful to avoid puncturing the lung at position 3."
……
This unprecedented surgery lasted six or seven hours, from noon until nightfall.
Deep within the garden of Yunhu Villa, Yan Lan kept her eyes glued to the screen, issuing commands, her fingertips occasionally tapping on the keyboard.
Her back was already soaked with sweat, but her voice remained steady.
finally--
"The surgery was a success!"
On the other end of the video, the doctors watched the data on the instruments gradually stabilize and couldn't help but cheer.
Some people even excitedly took off their gloves and wiped the sweat from their foreheads.
Yan Lan simply said:
"Remember to transfer the remaining money to my account."
Immediately, the video was abruptly cut off.
Inside the ward, the world's top doctors looked at each other, their eyes filled with shock.
That's it?
After such an intense surgery, the other party didn't say anything, they just wanted money?
The complexity of this surgery was so great that it could be written into a textbook.
"That's amazing... How could someone with that level of skill be completely unknown?"
"If she were willing to show her face, she would absolutely cause a sensation in the medical community!"
"He could even be compared to Dr. X from the X Labs!"
They couldn't help but whisper among themselves, their voices filled with admiration.
However, before their praise could end, a cold voice came from behind them.
"You can leave now."
During the surgery, the other party seemed to have vanished without a trace, but at this moment, they suddenly appeared like a ghost.
The doctors fell silent, quickly packed up their equipment, and left.
Once the ward was completely quiet, a tall woman in black slowly walked to Qin Shi's bedside.
Her gloved fingers casually picked up a scalpel, its blade gleaming coldly.
The woman held the scalpel in her hand as if it were a toy.
"Have you found the whereabouts of that ghost doctor?" she asked coldly.
Such talent must be kept under control.
However, her subordinate's reply made her eyes darken.
“We tracked her for a long time, but her IP address was encrypted in layers, and we couldn’t find the source at all.”
"The other side's counter-reconnaissance technology... is extremely sophisticated."
It's important to know that the network experts at Prisonnet are among the top in the global hacker community.
Their last failure dates back to half a month ago—the core database of the prison network was breached by a mysterious hacker who entered and left without a trace, as if the place were empty.
At that moment, a single sentence from his subordinate caused the woman's pupils to contract sharply—
"Young Master, the hacker's techniques... are extremely similar to those of the person who broke into our system half a month ago."
The woman abruptly stood up, her black trench coat tracing a sharp arc behind her. Her fingertips slammed heavily on the table, a flash of shock and ruthlessness crossing her eyes.
"You mean... the Ghost Doctor and that hacker might be the same person?"
Her voice was deep and dangerous, like a venomous snake's tongue.
The subordinate lowered his head, not daring to look her in the eye: "That possibility cannot be ruled out... or, at least they are on the same side."
The woman slowly narrowed her eyes, her gaze falling on Qin Shi, who was unconscious on the hospital bed.
Things seem to be getting more interesting.
If the Ghost Doctor really is connected to that mysterious hacker...
The value of this "doctor" goes far beyond just a single surgery.
The woman in black narrowed her eyes and tapped her fingertips lightly on the edge of the hospital bed.
"Keep checking."
She was determined to find out who this ghost doctor was!
In the restaurant of Yunhu Mountain Villa, a crystal chandelier casts a warm glow.
Madam Qin sat at the dining table, her gaze frequently glancing towards the door. The exquisite dishes on the table had grown somewhat cold, but Yan Lan was nowhere to be seen.
"Where did the young mistress go? Why hasn't she come to eat yet?" she asked the butler beside her in a soft voice, her brows slightly furrowed.
at this time--
"Clap."
A slight noise came from the doorway.
Madam Qin looked up and was so startled that she stood up abruptly—
Yan Lan leaned against the doorframe, her face ashen white, her bangs soaked with sweat and clinging to her cheeks. Her lips trembled slightly, and she looked as if she had just been pulled from the water, so weak that she could barely stand.
"Lanlan!" Madam Qin rushed forward and helped her swaying daughter-in-law up. "What happened to you?!"
Yan Lan's fingertips were icy cold, and even trembled slightly when they touched Madam Qin's wrist. She opened her mouth, but suddenly hugged Madam Qin tightly—
"mom……"
Her voice was incredibly hoarse, as if emotions that had been suppressed for a long time had finally burst forth.
Madam Qin was stunned. She could feel her daughter-in-law trembling all over, as if she had finally found a safe haven after a life-or-death struggle.
"sister in law!"
Qin Shengsheng had just entered the restaurant when she saw this scene, and she was so startled that the book in her hand fell to the ground with a "thud." She ran over and stood helplessly to the side, saying, "W-what happened? Sister-in-law, don't scare us!"
Yan Lan slowly released Madam Qin, her eyes red-rimmed but with a bright smile.
"Mom, Sheng Sheng..."
Her voice was soft, yet incredibly firm—
"Qin Shi is still alive."
"I just...saw him."
These words struck like a thunderbolt, exploding throughout the restaurant.
Madam Qin suddenly covered her mouth, tears welling up instantly. Qin Shengsheng stood there, her wide eyes filled with disbelief.
"R-really?" Qin Shengsheng's voice trembled with tears. "My brother is really still alive?!"
Yan Lan nodded, and tears finally slid down her cheeks.
She did it.
She really did save Qin Shi...
Madam Qin pulled her daughter-in-law into her arms, choking back tears and unable to speak. Outside the window, the night breeze gently rustled the trees, making even the moonlight seem softer.
