elderly woman had been a beautiful young lady.Old Master Zhong looked at the frail elderly woman lying on the bed; gradually, the image before him overlapped with his memories. Suddenly, Old Master Z...Chapter 582

When they found out that this person was Xiao Yu, the faces of those leader-like people immediately changed. They thought to themselves, no wonder Xiao Yu could command the People's Armed Police earlier; back then, the armed police were willing to besiege the Public Security Bureau for him and even opened fire. Now that they think about it, there is nothing strange about how respectful the armed police are towards Xiao Yu.

They had just witnessed Xiao Yu's interaction with Cao Jingmin. After learning of Xiao Yu's background, they thought to themselves, "It’s not surprising that Xiao Yu could treat Cao Jingmin like this; back then, a high-ranking official from the province personally came to pick up Xiao Yu. Considering his background, it’s terrifying just thinking about it, so it makes sense that Xiao Yu doesn’t pay much attention to Cao Jingmin."

"Haha, Dr. Xiao, don't say such things. Without you, I would be in a difficult situation right now." Wu Shouye said excitedly to Xiao Yu after hearing his words, but he was interrupted by Xiao Yu who said, "Haha, I didn’t do anything; getting promoted is due to your own abilities!"

"Alright, you go and take care of things! Disperse the crowd; everything here has been resolved." After a moment's contemplation, Xiao Yu continued speaking to Wu Shouye.

"Yes sir! You can rest assured. I’ll handle it right away!" Wu Shouye nodded repeatedly after hearing Xiao Yu’s words and then turned around to give instructions to the police officers behind him.

Cao Jingmin secretly glanced at Xiao Yu, a look of puzzlement on his face. He thought to himself, who is this person To make Wu Shouye act like this; it's well-known that Wu Shouye feels at ease in Shenhai City, even disregarding vice mayors and only putting effort into tasks when absolutely necessary.

But Cao Jingmin felt that staying here without being acknowledged by either of them was pointless. So he left with his secretary.

Although he had left, Cao Jingmin’s mood was extremely foul, secretly vowing to teach Wu Shouye and this young man a lesson.

The people in suits also looked at Xiao Yu cautiously; they had just heard from some acquaintances among the police officers about Xiao Yu's background. When they learned that Xiao Yu was the person who caused such a commotion at the police station that even the provincial governor personally came, they were all silent. They knew not to provoke him.

They had also heard about what happened back then; firing shots at the police station! Moreover, officials from the Political and Legal Affairs Commission were detained by the armed police and only handed over two days later to local disciplinary committees, along with Zhang Enning’s criminal evidence. However, nothing was done to the captain of the armed police who had fired his weapon.

Therefore, they all know that such a person is not someone to offend; the Secretary of Political and Legal Affairs! In this city of Deep Sea, ranking in the top three or four, this person overturned everything. Although there was Zhang Enning's own dubious background, who could be clean in this commercial hub called Deep Sea

Currently, their attitude towards Xiao Yu is respectful avoidance; hence, after seeing Cao Jingmin leave, they followed suit. There was nothing left to do here anyway and none of them knew what had happened.

Xiao Yu finished talking with Wu Shouye and then walked toward Wansheng Hall with Lao Dai and Xiao Hongyang.

After seeing Xiao Yu leave, this time Wu Shouye didn't speak anymore but instead directed the police officers to disperse the crowd.

When Cao Jingmin and those leaders reached their cars, Cao Jingmin paused and asked, "Who is that young man"

The city's power holders heard Cao Jingmin's question. Someone explained Xiao Yu’s background to him. After hearing about it, even though his face darkened, Cao Jingmin remained silent.

He had already heard the stories they told and also knew that Governor Huang had come. He was curious as to who in police custody could make Governor Huang rush over, and cause the captain of the local武警大隊to fire a gun inside the station; wasn't he afraid of military law

However, later developments exceeded his expectations. Zhang Dahan fired his gun yet nothing happened, so he thought it was due to Governor Huang’s influence. But when he went home for the New Year and mentioned this incident, his father told him a different story; Zhang Dahan wasn't punished because of his special status.

He then found out that Zhang Dahan is in charge of the 十三處in Deep Sea, so there was nothing strange about him firing his gun without consequences. Although they knew little about the 十三處, they understood their immense power.

At this point, he realized why the Guangdong Provincial Armed Police總隊couldn't control what happened in the Deep Sea武警大隊. Hearing that person's explanation, although his face darkened, he decided against causing any more trouble with Xiao Yu, for fear of retribution.

After returning to Wansheng Hall, Jin Xianglin followed them inside, and behind him were some security guards carrying the remaining medicinal herbs.

After seeing the herbs in their hands, Xiao Yu told Jin Xianglin, "Mr. Jin, tell them to throw all these herbs away! Remember to burn everything together with those!"

"Understood, did you guys hear that Do as Dr. Xiao said!" Upon hearing Xiao Yu's words, Jin Xianglin replied and instructed the security guards behind him.

By then, Jin Xianglin had been standing outside for quite some time, while the elderly man Dai and others had run several rounds; thus, their faces looked very haggard.

"Mr. Jin, where are those injured individuals" After Xiao Yu waited for them to sit down, he asked Jin Xianglin.

"They have been sent to the First People's Hospital of the city!" Upon hearing Xiao Yu's words, Jin Xianglin replied.

When Xiao Yu heard this, he nodded. Seeing how tired Elder Dai and Xiao Hongyang looked, he said, "Hongyang, Elder Dai, you guys worked hard today; let’s not open Wansheng Hall for business today; everyone should go home early to rest."

Elder Dai was already exhausted after going through so much at his age. The same went for Xiao Hongyang and the others. That's why Xiao Yu told them to get some proper rest.

After finishing speaking with them, Xiao Yu left Wansheng Hall. Seeing that traffic was still blocked outside, he walked forward. When he arrived at another intersection, he hailed a cab and headed towards the First People's Hospital of the city.

When he reached the First People's Hospital of the city, he went to the emergency department where the security guards were standing in the corridor outside the resuscitation room. Upon seeing Xiao Yu approach them, they all greeted him warmly.

"How are those people" Hearing their greetings, Xiao Yu nodded and asked.

"Still inside; the doctors here are testing this toxin," one of the security guards quickly answered upon hearing Xiao Yu’s question.

When they saw that the people who were brought here were poisoned, the doctors intended to take some measures. However, these security guards remembered what Xiao Yu had said and didn’t allow them to move the injured patients unless they had absolute certainty.

The doctors wanted to scold the security guards for this, as it was clear that those who were brought in were severely poisoned, and without treatment, they might die very soon.

However, these security guards wouldn’t listen. Fangyuan had instructed them before leaving that if the hospital didn’t have a sure cure for their conditions, then under no circumstances should they allow any treatment to be given.

So when the doctors said they were not absolutely certain about the outcome of the treatment, these security guards did not let them proceed. Helpless, the doctors presented an agreement and asked the security guards to sign it.

This wasn’t because the hospital wouldn’t treat them; rather, it was the patients’ companions who didn’t want any medical intervention. However, as these injured people were now in their care, if they took no action and one of them died later, the hospital would be at a loss for words to defend itself. Thus, they had the security guards sign an agreement.

This way, whether these individuals lived or died had nothing to do with the hospital anymore. Even if they were to die, the hospital wouldn’t have any responsibility towards them.

Although it was because of their lack of certainty that treatment wasn’t given, they couldn’t just sit idle either. So they took a small amount of poison from these patients for research purposes to see if there was an appropriate serum available. If one existed, then treating the injured would have an 80% chance of success.

When the doctors were extracting toxins from the wounds of the injured, they noticed the golden needles embedded in their bodies. At first, they didn’t pay much attention to these needles, but when they saw the condition of the patients' wounds, they were truly shocked.

The injuries on these patients had already turned a bluish-black color. However, as this dark color spread towards the golden needles surrounding the wounds, it suddenly stopped. Everything outside of the needles was a faint blue-black shade in stark contrast to the area enclosed by the needles.

Then they understood why the security guards wouldn’t let them proceed once they heard there wasn't absolute certainty about their condition. Before coming here, these patients had been examined by an expert traditional Chinese medicine doctor.

The doctors took some toxins and asked the security guards about it. When they learned that indeed a TCM doctor had told them so, they nodded understandingly.hang in confusion."Y–you... cough cough..." Chief Zhang tried to point at Director Liu and speak, but as soon as he opened his mouth, a large amount of air rushed into it, choking him so that he could...
