"Boss is here this time mainly to check on the situation of your two medical teams. Later, a special patient might be coming…" John explained the basic situation to the two medical teams in front of him.
Currently, within X Squad, besides Wesley and his son genuinely going on vacation to the beach, John and Tina are still considered to be working.
During the previous Vampire incident, there was vaguely another group of well-trained mysterious people who were monitoring the Vampire's movements.
Although they took no action until Deacon was eliminated, their ability to evade the MIB's surveillance proved that this organization was not simple.
Tina's current mission is to expose these "mysterious people."
As for John, his wife's heart problem has been treated, and she is now in the recovery phase.
So, he is currently taking care of his wife at the hospital while also helping Mike oversee the establishment of the medical team.
"So, there's another patient, huh?" Dr. House said in an irritating tone, "But that's good, at least it proves that the boss isn't coming for us…"
The eccentric Dr. House often makes inappropriate gestures. For example, right now, in this setting, he actually told a "cold joke."
However, this is understandable.
Mike's original intention for forming the medical team was largely an impromptu idea, and he hadn't considered using the medical team for anything major.
At most, it was to utilize these medical resources to provide an extra layer of insurance for those around him.
After all, besides Mike, those around him inevitably experience headaches or fevers. Just like George this time, and John's wife before.
Even now, Mike still holds this idea.
However, his approach seemed unreasonable to the "old fox" Dr. House: building a medical team with nearly ten million dollars, and constantly offering millions in bonuses to support the team. If one were to say that the big boss had no special plans, no one would believe it.
Yes, because the benefits were too good, Dr. House felt uneasy.
Furthermore, Dr. House, a middle-aged man with a limp leg, divorced and a lone wolf, now belonged to the type of person who had nothing to lose.
Such people often tend to be cynical, always thinking the worst of others.
Therefore, Dr. House did not believe that there was a good person like Mike in the world who sought nothing in return.
And criticizing the big boss who he hadn't even met yet gave Dr. House a great sense of accomplishment. At this moment, he smiled and turned his head, seeking the approval of his team members.
It could be described as: full of malicious fun—
However, before the hospital could be filled with "laughter and joy" as Dr. House expected, two figures walked in through the main entrance.
Against the sunlight, their faces were a bit hard to discern.
"Dr. House, right?" A voice preceded their arrival: "Don't worry, with your appearance, even if you had a sex change operation, no one would covet you."
As the words fell, Mike and Needy walked in front of everyone.
This was unexpected by many in the hospital's front hall—that such "vicious" words would come from the handsome young man in front of them.
Of course, these people also had a rough guess about his identity.
And Dr. House, targeted by Mike, even as an old fox, couldn't help but feel a bit embarrassed at this moment.
However, birds of a feather flock together; Dr. House's medical assistant team all had a bit of a "jokester" attribute. Seeing their "sharp-tongued" attending physician get flustered, these people all suppressed their laughter, and some even "pffted" out loud.
On the other side, the genius Dr. Sean, who already had severe autism, was not directly involved in what just happened, but he inexplicably felt affected and looked even more nervous than the "person involved."
"Boss, Dr. House's personality is just like that. He probably didn't mean it maliciously just now…" Seeing the strange atmosphere, John spoke up to smooth things over for Dr. House.
This cool former assassin generally doesn't speak well of others. The main reason he spoke up this time was because Dr. House and Dr. Sean had teamed up to cure his wife's illness.
"I understand—" Mike smiled, signaling the slightly nervous John to relax.
Moreover, he wasn't that petty and wouldn't deliberately target Dr. House just because he had criticized him behind his back.
'It's just that Dr. House's leg might be lame for a while longer.'
As the saying goes, everyone has their specialty. Dr. House's expertise in internal medicine might not be able to cure his crooked lame leg, but the [Ointment] confiscated from the Fraternity could easily do so.
However, judging by Dr. House's previous attitude, he didn't seem to need that thing yet.
"This is Dr. Sean, a very talented doctor." John then introduced the young doctor, who was too nervous to move, to Mike.
It was rare that John also spoke well of that overly young doctor.
Then, the former assassin also introduced Mike's identity to everyone.
"Alright, I didn't come here for anything else this time. I just wanted to tell you that in two days, a patient with heart problems will be admitted to the hospital. Please treat them seriously." Mike no longer made things difficult for the two distinctive attending physicians and directly stated his purpose.
In fact, Dr. House, apart from being a bit verbally abusive and having a bad temper, was actually not a bad person.
As for Dr. Sean, besides his autism, he had no other issues.
Undeniably, while these two doctors had their flaws, they were absolutely genuine and excellent in their medical skills.
Mike didn't mind being generous with such talents, even granting them preferential treatment.
Even for Dr. House, if he contributed to treating George this time, everything would be fine.
Mike would not be stingy with two portions of [Ointment].
…
In the time that followed, Mike also visited John's wife, who was recuperating, accompanied by everyone.
Her condition was good; judging by her complexion, she would be fully recovered and able to live a normal life at home in another two months.
According to the two doctors, John's wife had mild congenital heart disease, and the treatment difficulty was not high.
"Um… Boss, does the reward system you mentioned earlier still count?" Dr. House called out to Mike as he was about to leave.
His tone had softened a lot, after all, no one would turn down money.
"Of course it counts…" Mike indicated with interest for him to continue.
"It's like this, my team has developed a special medicine for heart problems that can quickly relieve issues like myocardial infarction and angina. I wonder if this meets the reward requirements?" Dr. House said, taking out a bottle of unlabeled pills.
As expected of a genius doctor.
Listening to his introduction, this heart medicine was likely an emergency medicine.
If this thing was truly effective, it would not only benefit the public but also certainly make money easily.
"What are the specific effects, and can it be directly put into use?" Mike observed the pills in his hand, developing some interest.
"Uh, actually, this medicine has just been developed and hasn't undergone clinical trials yet…" Dr. House replied.
His action was, on one hand, to see if Mike, as the boss, was truly as generous as he claimed. On the other hand, he also wanted to see how powerful this big boss was.
After all, the medical industry is very complex, not something an ordinary boss can handle.
"You should focus on the clinical trials first. If this medicine is truly effective, you will definitely get a bonus." Mike didn't think that much; he just heard that the drug had just passed the development stage, and his interest immediately waned by more than half.
For professionals, drug development is not difficult; the real challenge is ensuring the efficacy of the drug.
It was the same for Mike; having invested in the medical field, approving drug sales was not difficult, but having a good drug was.
"Everyone go get busy, I'll be back in two days—" After returning the medicine bottle to Dr. House, Mike and Needy walked out of the hospital.
[Dexterous Hands]: Slightly improves the flexibility and control of the ten fingers.
[Geometric Thinking]: Able to simulate a three-dimensional model of any object in the mind, and control and experiment with it.
Mike's visit was not in vain this time; besides meeting two genius doctors, he also obtained two excellent talent light clusters from them.
