"Do you think that I won't know if you don't tell me? I can summon you two, so I can summon a third demon. Then, you'll lose your job and probably won't be able to get demonic crystals anymore. "
"Actually, humans really can't use it. We demons eat demonic crystals directly, but you humans can't digest them."
Chen Zhao looked at the demonic crystal in his hand. Forget it. He couldn't solve this problem for now.
If demonic crystals could only be eaten, humans really wouldn't be able to enjoy them.
"Isn't there a more scientific and effective method?"
"In human terms, there's nothing more efficient than digestion."
Chen Zhao looked at the demonic crystal in his hand. Should he try?
Maybe his stomach could digest it …
Even if he couldn't, he'd just get a stone. What's the big deal?
Forget it … It's better to be safe.
After some thought, Chen Zhao gave up on the idea.
He didn't know if it could be digested or not. Who knew what side effects it would have on the human body?
"Here." Chen Zhao casually tossed the small demonic crystal to the two demons, letting them fight for it.
Watching a dog and a snake fighting back and forth, it was quite a sight to behold.
Outside the house, it started raining. In just a few minutes, the rain grew heavier.
Just then, Chen Zhao's phone rang. "Chen, there's another order, but it's a bit special. It's up to you whether you want to go or not."
"What order?"
"It's a gang … gang leader's order. It's not cheap, three thousand dollars."
"What's wrong with him?"
"Gunshot wound."
"Is it dangerous?"
"I'd be lying if I said it's absolutely safe. But I'm familiar with that guy. He'll follow the rules."
"Okay. If you say so, I'll go." Compared to safety, three thousand dollars was enough for Chen Zhao to take the risk.
Three thousand dollars wasn't a small amount at any time. Plus, Chen Zhao was very poor right now.
It was getting late. Chen Zhao called Vincent and asked if he had time.
Vincent agreed to pick him up, but he wanted double the pay.
Vincent brought Chen Zhao to a rather old street. The street lights were all dark.
"Do you need me to wait for you here?" Vincent knew where this place was.
"Don't stay here. If I need a car, I'll call you again. It's not safe here. Go somewhere else."
"I understand." Vincent nodded.
Chen Zhao got out of the car and walked to the roof in the rain. Then he knocked on the door.
The door opened. A black muzzle appeared in the dark corridor and pointed at Chen Zhao's head.
At that moment, Chen Zhao regretted it …
Ethan, what happened to safety? This was different from what they had agreed on.
"Hi, I'm a doctor. Ethan recommended me."
Just then, a hoarse voice came from the corridor. "Morgery, put down the gun. I trust Ethan."
"Can I come in now?"
"Come in, kid."
Chen Zhao entered the corridor and the small room inside. "It's too dark here. Turn on the light."
"Morgery, turn on the light."
The lights were turned on. Chen Zhao saw a man lying on the sofa. He was covered in blood and had four gunshot wounds. His abdomen and chest were casually wrapped in gauze, still bleeding.
The man's body was dripping wet, not only with blood, but also with sweat.
It was obvious that he was in great pain.
Chen Zhao sat on the edge of the sofa. "Can you tell me when you were shot?"
"In the morning."
"Be precise."
"Err … About 14 or 15 hours."
Chen Zhao unwrapped the gauze. "The bullet hasn't been taken out yet. It's probably infected and you've lost too much blood."
In the past few days, Chen Zhao had discovered his biggest obstacle in practicing medicine. He didn't have a source of medicine.
Some diseases could be treated with acupuncture, but some injuries required western medicine.
However, without a medical license, he couldn't even get the most common amoxicillin.
The best anti-inflammatory was amoxicillin. Of course, Yunnan Baiyao was also very effective. Chen Zhao didn't have amoxicillin, but he had Yunnan Baiyao.
Moreover, Chen Zhao had to help him take out the bullet, but he didn't even have painkillers.
"Don't worry," the man said weakly. "Just treat me. I'll pay whether it's good or bad."
However, the bald Morgery standing at the side definitely wouldn't listen to his boss.
He kept looking at Chen Zhao with a cold gaze. If anything happened to his boss, Chen Zhao might not be able to walk out alive.
"I need to give you acupuncture to help you relieve the pain. Then I can take out the bullet."
"I'm not afraid of pain."
"That's a must. It's not about fear. Sometimes, courage doesn't equal vitality. Pain will make your blood flow faster and your secretion faster. You've already lost too much blood. If you bleed a bit more, you'll probably go to heaven."
"Okay, I'll cooperate with you."
Chen Zhao carefully applied the needles. He identified the acupuncture points and didn't dare to make any mistakes.
It wasn't just for the patient's life, but also for his own.
After stopping the pain, Chen Zhao pressed on the edge of the wound gently. "Do you feel anything?"
"Yes, but it won't hurt."
It was good that he felt something. If he didn't, it meant that the nerves nearby had already died.
Chen Zhao took out a scalpel and started with the gunshot wound in the abdomen. The bullet didn't enter very deep. After opening the wound, it could be seen with the naked eye.
The entire process took less than ten minutes. The first bullet was already taken out.
However, when Chen Zhao checked the chest wall, he realized that the bullet was stuck in the aorta next to the ventricle. It was very dangerous.
"This one is too troublesome. I'll take the other two bullets first." Chen Zhao could only give up on this bullet for now.
The other bullets were on the thighs and shoulders. It wasn't difficult either. The entire process took less than 20 minutes.
However, he still had to face the gunshot wound in the chest. Chen Zhao frowned and started thinking.
Suddenly, he saw a shadow beside him. He jumped in fright.
"What's wrong?"
It was a faceless man, wearing a black robe that covered his head. His face was blank, and he held a rusty sickle in his hand.
Grim Reaper!!! He was the Grim Reaper!
There was no mistaking it …
The Grim Reaper was here!
Chen Zhao broke out in a cold sweat. Who was he here for?
No matter who he was here for, it wouldn't be good for Chen Zhao.
If this gang leader died, Chen Zhao wouldn't be able to live either.
Calm down, calm down … He had to calm down.
This boss couldn't die! If he died, Chen Zhao would die too.
At this moment, Chen Zhao really regretted taking this job out of greed. Why didn't he bring the two demons?
