“Medicine?”
“Comrade Li Xianghui, don’t mess around. Your career is on the rise now. Be careful not to get fired.”
“F*ck off, can’t you have some respect for me?” Li Xianghui scolded. “1 meant pain medicine. Don’t overthink it.”
Lin Yi rolled his eyes. “It shouldn’t be an ordinary painkiller, right?”
“The leader’s mother-in-law has late-stage bone cancer. It’s so painful that
she can’t take it anymore. He can’t bear to see her like this, so he wants to get some painkillers.”
“But with his connections, it shouldn’t be difficult for him to get these things.” Lin Yi knew very well that they had this stuff in Huashan Hospital.
However, the government had very strict control over the drug.
It had to be signed by the hospital director before it could be used.
Moreover, after use, the bottles could not simply be thrown away. They had to return the same number of bottles that they were initially allocated. Otherwise, the leaders of the hospital would be punished.
If one didn’t have some ability, they really wouldn’t be able to get their hands on it.
“That’s true, but he’s already begged for help many times. He couldn’t possibly beg anymore.”
“Then how did this task fall to you?”
Li Xianghui was the vice-captain and had good resources and connections.
However, he was clearly helpless when it came to such matters.
“My sister-in-law is the head nurse at the city’s second hospital, so there’s a bit of a channel there, but I’ve already helped him get two doses before, and 1 can’t get any more.” Li Xianghui scratched his head, “I’m really worried about what to do about this.”
“How much do you need? I’ll get you some.”
Li Xianghui’s eyes lit up. “Really? You have a channel?”
“This is nothing. Forget about getting a few bottles of medicine, even if you want to build a house, 1 can help you find an excavator.”
“Is your channel reliable? This is not a joke.”
“Don’t worry, there’ll be no problem at all. 1 won’t joke about my job.”
“Then what are we waiting for? Hurry, hurry, go get a few.” Li Xianghui said.
“And this must be kept a secret. Don’t let anyone know.”
“I can keep it a secret, but I can’t go out now. I’ll help you with it after the lecture.”
Li Xianghui rolled his eyes.
“This is a little urgent. Can you get it now?”
“I can.”
“You could jump out from the base of the wall, and come back after you’re done.”
“There are cameras all around, and there are patrols at night too. What if I get caught?”
“The cameras have blind spots. If there’s a patrol, just have your roommate say that we’re together, then no one will say anything.”
“Alright, with you covering for me, I won’t be afraid.”
“Go on. It’s urgent.”
“Sure thing.”
After staying here for so many days, Lin Yi wanted to leave to take a breather.
Thus, he found the aforementioned blind spot and climbed over the wall to escape.
After leaving the training base, Lin Yi called Li Chuhan.
“Are you at home or at the hospital?”
“I’m on duty at the hospital today,” Li Chuhan said gently.
“Is the training over?”
Li Chuhan knew about him being a police officer. She also had the calmest reaction to this.
“I’m done. Let’s slack off and relax. You should come out too. There’s a night market nearby. Let’s go check it out.”
“Is this convenient for you?”
“Of course it’s convenient. Just come over.” Lin Yi said.
“Bring me five more bottles of painkillers. If the hospital won’t give them to you, just mention my name.”
“Alright, send me the address. I’ll head over and look for you.”
“Okay.”
This was one of the benefits of chatting with Li Chuhan.
No matter what you asked her to do, she would not ask any questions.
She would quietly handle what she could and directly inform you about what she couldn’t. She would not beat around the bush.
After finishing his call with Li Chuhan, Lin Yi drove to the night market on Xiangchun Road.
This area was home to two vocational schools. Although the schools weren’t prestigious, the students here had first-rate spending power.
As time pa.s.sed, it became a night market. It was quite famous in Zhonghai and could often be seen on TikTok.
After talcing a taxi to the night market, Lin Yi waited at the entrance for a few minutes before Li Chuhan arrived.
The red G63 attracted the attention of many people present.
After all, this was not an ordinary Mercedes-Benz G, but the model that cost more than three million yuan.
It was not common to see such a good car in this suburban area.
Li Chuhan’s appearance shocked the onlookers even more.
Such a beautiful woman actually drove a G63. It was too domineering.
Li Chuhan was wearing a pair of jeans, which perfectly outlined her legs. The top half of her body was draped in a long gown that covered her b.u.t.t. This combination was really eye-catching.
“That’s a nice car.”
Not far away, Gu Yiran looked at Li Chuhan’s G63 with envy.
She was different from other girls. She liked this kind of hardcore SUV.
And a car like the G63 was 100% in line with her aesthetics.
It was just that he was short of money and could not afford such a good car.
“This car is indeed really nice. I believe it cost three million yuan. The woman driving the car is also quite good-looking. Looking at her cold appearance, she must be rich,” said Gu Yiran’s colleague, Liu Pingping.
“That’s for sure. Can an ordinary person drive a car worth more than three million yuan? Just look at her outfit and you can tell that she’s worth a lot.” Gu Yiran said.
“But it’s quite interesting. Such a rich person actually came to a civilian night market.”
“Rich people are also humans. The food at the night market is so delicious. Who doesn’t like it?”
“You’re right.” Gu Yiran said.
“Let’s go. It’s getting late. Let’s go back. We still have to work tomorrow.” “Aren’t you going to stare at it for a while longer? This car isn’t common.” “There’s no point in staring. I can’t afford it either way. It’ll just make me envious.”
“Eh? That man looks a little familiar. Why does he look like the new trainee?” Liu Pingping said suspiciously.
“How is that possible? You must be mistaken. The training center is completely sealed. They can’t come out at all.”
“I didn’t see wrongly. Look at that man. He seems to be Lin Yi, the guy who you’ve been having conflicts with.”
“Him?”
Following Liu Pingping’s gaze, Gu Yiran looked over.
She suddenly realized that the person standing beside that woman was really
Lin Yi!
“What’s going on?” Liu Pingping asked in surprise.
“How did he manage to get out? According to the rules, sneaking out of the training base is grounds for expulsion, right?”
“He probably couldn’t resist sneaking out.” Gu Yiran said:
“Let’s go and see.”
“Hm? What are you going over there for? To settle scores with him?”
A smile appeared on the corner of Gu Yiran’s mouth.
“According to the relevant regulations, his actions amount to voluntarily dropping out of the training. I need to go over and tell him, so he understands what’s happening.”
“Give him another chance. Let’s pretend we didn’t see anything. He’s so handsome, could you really bring yourself to do it?”
“Why would I hesitate? I wish he would leave quickly. Otherwise, I’ll have to make him so angry he dies,” Gu Yiran said with a laugh.
