At this moment, the Northwest Young Marshal Ren Xiaosu, whom Big Bluff and Wang Yun were looking forward to seeing, had arrived at the entrance of Stronghold 31.
However, something unexpected happened. After the guards at the entrance learned of their identities, they did not let them through immediately. Instead, they politely stopped everyone at the entrance and said they would have to wait for their information to be verified.
This wait lasted for two hours. But even after two hours had passed, the Kong Clan was still not done with their verification.
Wang Jing smiled. "It looks like they're planning to stop us here. It's fine, we'll just wait."
However, as Ren Xiaosu looked at the long streets in town, he suddenly said enthusiastically, "Since the Kong Clan won't let us in, let's just do the consultation in town and save the refugees outside Stronghold 31!"
Wang Jing was stunned for a moment. Then he looked at Ren Xiaosu with an even kinder gaze.
Yang Xiaojin looked at Ren Xiaosu quietly. She knew this fellow had already forgotten about rescuing Wang Yun.
As for assassinating Kong Erdong, that was even more out of the question.
However, Yang Xiaojin did not remind Ren Xiaosu again. Instead, she sat in the vehicle and quietly observed Ren Xiaosu's profile. She suddenly felt that Ren Xiaosu was quite cute at this moment.
At some point, Yang Xiaojin could sense that Ren Xiaosu had really gained some joy and a sense of accomplishment in the process of treating and saving people. It had nothing to do with personal gains.
In fact, even Ren Xiaosu himself thought it was the joy of receiving gratitude tokens, so he ignored it.
However, a middle-aged doctor hesitated and said, "That's not a good idea. This is the Kong Clan's territory. If the Wang Clan finds out about this, I'm afraid it'll be a little difficult for us to collect donations in the stronghold in the future. Besides, will the Wang Clan charge us with colluding with the enemy?"
Ren Xiaosu shook his head righteously and said, "Consortiums are divided into regions, but are patients and doctors also divided into regions?"
"Well said." Wang Jing applauded and said, "Then I'll stay in town and treat people until we run out of medicine, until the Kong Clan is willing to let us into the city! I believe our colleagues in the stronghold are also running around for this. Instead of waiting anxiously, why don't we show off the brilliance of our Trinity Institute and show the Kong Clan what it means to be a benevolent doctor? "
At this moment, the more Wang Jing looked at Ren Xiaosu, the more he liked him. An ambitious young man like him should devote his limited lifespan to a limitless medical career.
Now that order had collapsed, to have such a benevolent heart was truly rare!
While Wang Jing was distracted, he turned around to look at Ren Xiaosu. However, he realized the other party had already put on a white coat and was helping Liang Ce and the others set up a temporary consultation camp.
When Wang Jing saw this scene and everyone's enthusiasm, he felt like he had become much younger. His blood was boiling with excitement!
In just one morning, the news of the Trinity Institute holding free consultations here had spread throughout town and also slowly spread to the factory.
At first, Ren Xiaosu was a little worried. This was not a place where the Trinity Institute often held free consultations. Would the refugees be ungrateful?
In the end, he realized his worries were unnecessary. As long as they sincerely treated the patients, most of the patients would sincerely thank them.
Of course, there were also some strange occurrences. For example, when some refugees found out the medicine was being distributed for free, they lied about having a fever, a cold, or a sore throat in an attempt to scam them into selling some anti-inflammatory medicine.
Some doctors exposed them. However, Wang Jing waved it off and let the refugees leave. He said, "This place is different from the previous emergency department. We've been operating there for decades, and everyone's ancestors have been sheltered by the Trinity Institute for generations, so they wouldn't dare to deceive us. But don't be discouraged or complain. In a few decades, the people here will also respect what we do from the bottom of their hearts."
Actually, it was not only people who scammed for medicine. There were even people who were injured but did not dare to come over for treatment. They were afraid it was another one of the consortiums' tricks.
When Wang Jing and the others found out about this, they decided to hold a small meeting to discuss how to resolve it. Wang Jing looked at Liang Ce. "Where's Ren Xiaosu? Tell him to come over for the meeting. "
Wang Jing looked around but did not see Ren Xiaosu anywhere.
Liang Ce was taken aback. "Ren Xiaosu has already gone over to treat the patients. He said we can't let these people slip through the cracks …."
Wang Jing laughed awkwardly. "Haha, this kid's choice of words is really quite novel …. Come, let's go and have a look too."
With that, Wang Jing led the two doctors into town. But before they could get far, they heard someone wailing. When they got closer, they were surprised to see Ren Xiaosu pressing a patient to the ground and applying medicine on him.
The other doctors looked at Wang Jing speechlessly. The corners of Wang Jing's eyes twitched. He did not know why this young man was so fanatical about treating patients and saving people.
But at this moment, the stronghold's gate was slowly raised. Wang Jing turned around and saw the Kong Clan's garrison troops coming out. They even brought along several doctors in white coats.
Wang Jing smiled and said, "Our old friends have come to welcome us. Let's go." Then he said to the doctors in white coats with a clear laugh, "Yang Shiruo, Su Wan, long time no see!"
The two middle-aged doctors at the front of the group beamed with joy. "It's been three years, but Elder Wang is still as elegant as ever."
But when the two of them were about to welcome Wang Jing, they were stopped by a young man next to them. He said to Wang Jing with a smile, "Hello, Elder Wang. I've heard a lot about you. My name is Zhong Zhen, and I'm currently the director of the 1st Military Intelligence Division."
Wang Jing paused for a moment, and his enthusiasm clearly faded a lot. He said politely, "Director Zhong, nice to meet you."
"Mhm." Zhong Zhen nodded and said, "The higher-ups have agreed to let you enter the stronghold for the medical exchange. But there are some procedures that we'll have to go through first."
"What procedures?" Wang Jing wondered.
"Everyone in the exchange team will have to answer a few questions. The questions aren't difficult, and they're all professional questions. I don't think they'll be too difficult for you." Zhong Zhen said with a smile, "After all, we're currently in a special situation, so I hope everyone can understand."
Everyone looked at one another. It was no wonder so many doctors had come out to welcome them. So it was to let these doctors screen the identities of the doctors in the group.
If a spy wanted to infiltrate the stronghold, no matter how many classes they had taken, they would be able to tell if the doctors were real or fake. After all, it was impossible for a spy to spend several years learning medical knowledge.
The intelligence agency had been conflicted for a long time about the Trinity Institute's visit to the Kong Clan this time. It was Zhong Zhen who came forward to make a suggestion. If these people could pass the screening, everyone could rest assured.
When the higher-ups thought about it, they felt it made sense. The Trinity Institute had not encountered any problems in the past dozen or so exchanges. If they were really all doctors, they could just let them be.
Zhong Zhen said with a smile, "Elder Wang, what do you think?"
Wang Jing felt that there were no problems on his side, so he said confidently, "I understand completely. Let's get started then."
