"Cohen, I've already recommended you to the UCLA Medical Center."
"What? Why?"
"The clinic, I've handed it over to Zhou Mo Sen."
"What?!"
"Don't be surprised, I've already planned to retire. In the future, just work peacefully at UCLA."
"This, this..."
"Don't worry, with your skills in plastic surgery, there should be no problem."
After hanging up the phone, Cohen was dumbfounded.
He never expected to receive a call like this.
The teacher handed the clinic to Zhou Mo Sen?
Then what about me?!
Cohen was so angry at this moment that his face was distorted!
But after all, he is a doctor, not stupid.
He immediately thought about what he should do now.
Being recommended to UCLA, he was no longer tied to the clinic.
Then, of course, the plan must be canceled!
Killing Howard wouldn't have any benefits for him.
This is a risky matter.
What if the police trace it to him!
There's a saying: high risk, high reward.
Without the high reward, why take such a big risk?
After all, he won't get that clinic!
Therefore, Cohen acted immediately.
He called Brother Pi and simply drove to the Bloodline Gang.
Unexpectedly, the response he got was:
"That thing, I've already arranged for others to do it. You need to find them."
F*ck!
Cohen knew this was definitely trouble.
What a load of crap from Brother Pi!
You actually outsourced it!
But scolding is useless now, he had to quickly find those two guys.
Brother Pi gave him the numbers.
The result was...
The calls couldn't get through.
Perhaps they turned off their phones before taking action.
What to do?
Find them!
Luckily, Cohen knew Howard went to Los Angeles.
And it was the UCLA Medical Center.
That old guy would definitely choose the fastest highway, right?
Cohen simply didn't go to the clinic.
He went straight on the road.
...
Jimmy and Tang, in fact, didn't turn off their phones.
They went to meet Old Mo last night and forgot to charge them.
Luckily, Amigo said it.
It's just running someone over, right.
I do it often.
Hearing him boast like that, he should have some skills.
The Old Mo that Jimmy and Tang found was a shriveled middle-aged man.
They told him.
After this job, take the money and quickly return to Mexico.
Old Mo agreed immediately.
He was planning to do that anyway.
Don't underestimate 1500 US Dollars.
In Mexico, you'd have to work hard for two or three months to earn that.
A country like Mexico, the GDP per capita may look high.
But actual life, it's a mess.
So, they took action today.
They first waited not far from the Howard family.
They waited for Old Howard to drive out and then slowly followed.
Originally, there was an opportunity to act on the highway.
But unexpectedly, they encountered state police.
Jimmy and Tang, along with that Old Mo, were quite unlucky.
The state police car drove neither fast nor slow, always nearby.
This made it impossible to act.
Howard kept driving all the way to the UCLA Medical Center, unaware that he just brushed past death's door.
...
The recommendation for Cohen went very smoothly.
In the United States, doctors don't worry about finding jobs.
Then, Howard met his old friend, Professor Hansen, again.
After exchanging a few pleasantries, Hansen mentioned something.
"Were you also curious before?"
"Oh? About what?"
"About why Dr. Zhou left our hospital."
"Yes, I was also quite curious."
Professor Hansen's words immediately piqued Howard's gossip interest.
Actually, Hansen was the most curious about this.
A doctor with good talent.
Why didn't he join our General Surgery but instead left for a small private clinic?
Moreover, later in court.
This Zhou Mo Sen even embarrassed Hansen.
As an authority, Professor Hansen wasn't that petty.
It's not hard to find out about things from back then.
So, he did uncover a few things.
Simply put, it was because of a surgery.
Back then, Zhou Mo Sen was a resident doctor.
In terms of rank, a resident doctor can't be a surgical assistant.
But, they can participate in surgeries.
Meaning, they could watch while surgery was being performed.
In modern medicine, observing surgeries is a common practice.
Major hospitals in Europe and America all have surgical observation rooms, mainly for students' convenience.
And participating in a surgery is also a form of learning, even further.
Though not performing the surgery, everything else is experienced on-site.
But, it's not always that you can't perform a surgery, right?
Being on-site and already in scrubs.
That time, an old professor at the hospital was performing surgery.
With an unsteady hand, he cut an artery.
The patient had severe bleeding.
This situation wasn't uncommon; prompt remedy was the best strategy.
But the professor was old and fainted from the blood spray.
The assistants panicked too.
Originally saving one, now two needed saving.
Which one first?
The nurses had already started CPR on the old professor, and the assistant joined in.
The old professor was the assistant's future career, right?
And the patient on the operating table? Bleeding profusely.
Zhou Mo Sen stepped up to remedy the situation.
It didn't become a medical incident.
This should have been a good thing.
In fact, before this, many liked inviting him to participate in surgeries.
Probably, this wasn't his first time executing such a remedy.
And Zhou Mo Sen was willing to help.
Not only could he treat patients and save lives, but he also improved his own skills.
But after this, Zhou Mo Sen faced severe ostracism.
Later, he chose to go to the Monroe Clinic.
Hansen didn't find detailed specifics, but he could fully imagine.
For instance, why ostracize Zhou Mo Sen.
Clearly, that old professor wanted to preserve his own reputation.
And then other reasons… was there discrimination against Asians?
Actually, everyone knows quite well, there definitely is one.
But of course, it can't be mentioned.
Especially since the old professor is retired now, what's the point of investigating?
Hansen shared the story with Howard.
Howard was actually pleased.
Zhou Mo Sen seems to have good medical ethics, which is beneficial for his clinic.
But Professor Hansen made this comment.
"Have you ever thought, he might go to another extreme?"
Perhaps harboring resentment, hating our hospital, even hating society?
Howard thought for a moment and then laughed.
"Probably not."
He is now actually standing on Zhou Mo Sen's side.
Which makes sense, as the clinic was handed over to him.
Hansen just smiled and said no more after hearing this.
However, he became more interested in Zhou Mo Sen.
After leaving UCLA, Howard called his daughter.
The two of them went to Santa Monica, and it's truly a great beach there.
There's a pier that extends into the sea.
The pier is bustling with people, and there's an interesting restaurant.
Bubba Gump Shrimp Restaurant.
Indeed, it's the one from "Forrest Gump."
Of course, it's a commercial development of the movie IP.
But Alice loves going there to eat.
Though it's quite expensive, the restaurant is fun, with menus made of ping pong paddles from the movies.
Father and daughter laughed from time to time while eating.
This scene seemed to turn back the clock a few years.
"I'm handing the clinic over to Zhou Mo Sen; you don't seem surprised at all?"
When asked about this, Alice couldn't help but blush.
Fortunately, the hood of her jacket helped to hide it a bit.
...
Actually, Jimmy, Tang, and that Old Mo.
They were driving two cars.
Old Mo's was stolen, saving costs that way.
But along the way, they didn't find a good opportunity.
So they kept following.
However, they managed to handle a phone call.
They saw quite a few missed calls.
Who the hell was calling?
Called back, and then...
"Who the f*ck are you calling me?"
"F*ck! Why weren't you two answering before?"
Can you just let that slide?
Immediately cursed back.
Jimmy and Tang were two people, and they soon started a rap.
One can imagine the chaos.
Later, that guy even told them to stop.
"Who the hell are you?"
"I'm not gonna listen to you!"
Yes, they got this job from Brother Pi.
The other side was about to go crazy, finally asking where they were.
Afraid of him?
Looked at the road sign and reported it.
Jimmy and Tang didn't know that a Ford had been following them all along.
The person in the car was Clay.
The time now is 1:52 PM.
Half an hour later, a bizarre car accident occurred on the streets of Los Angeles.
...
Zhou Mo Sen was still busy.
Yet full of energy.
Last night's madness did bring some novelty.
A vampire?
I'm also... cough cough...
Of course, Alice isn't a real vampire.
Instead, she's a sensitive girl.
As Zhou Mo Sen's big hand passed, her skin blushed, and she quivered slightly.
Anyway, there was some exchange in the field of human genetics.
Still, it's that kind of situation.
More than just friends.
No major surgeries today, most came for injections.
Hyaluronic acid, about 200 bucks per shot.
To be honest, cosmetic clinics are indeed profitable.
But as he was busy with the needle, the pager beeped.
"Zhou, save me."
Alice's message was very simple.
Yet Zhou Mo Sen realized, something major might have happened!
Did this girl go to Los Angeles, could it be...
...
Alice opened her eyes and found herself upside down.
The car had flipped, her mind was a mess.
She saw her father beside her.
Luckily, he was just unconscious.
Both of them were upside down, bodies strapped upside down in the 911.
It's a well-made sports car.
Not far away, three cars had collided, one of them overturned.
Right, there was just a car accident.
Alice could feel that this accident was weird, but she couldn't focus on those details now.
Was that Cohen in the car?
She saw an acquaintance, but then the car burst into flames with a bang.
Looks like it's about to turn into a cooked acquaintance.
Alice smelled gasoline.
She immediately reacted.
Had to get out of the car quickly.
She had to free herself from this damned... oh yes, call for help.
Got her hands on the phone and dialed a number.
It was Zhou Mo Sen's, then a call transfer.
He was at work, wearing a pager.
But he should be able to receive the message too.
Also dialed 911.
Then, Alice started to save herself.
When she crawled out of the car, her jacket was left on the seat.
No way, it got caught, she had to shed her skin like a cicada.
The California sunshine is really nice.
Damn nice!
Alice felt very uncomfortable.
Under normal circumstances, she'd find a shade to stay in.
But now... looking at her unconscious father in the car.
Alice didn't hesitate, she tried to open the car door.
Wearing only a T-shirt, with the sun beating down on her.
The car door felt like a branding iron.
But she didn't care about any of that.
Finally, Old Howard was pulled out, the 911 was burning.
When Old Howard opened his eyes, he saw his daughter shivering and huddled beside him.
...
Zhou Mo Sen arrived at UCLA Medical Center.
This felt like revisiting old grounds, but at this moment, he didn't want to think about the past.
Soon, he found Howard and Alice.
Before he could say anything.
Dr. Howard firmly gripped his hand.
"Save my daughter! Save her!"
