Chapter 8, this is a test

Uncle Mo glanced at him and said, "At his age, in a place like this, he can no longer be considered a child."

Old Yang waved his hand and said, "Let us not argue anymore. Xiaohua is neither you nor me; let's ask him directly... Xiaohua, what are your thoughts?"

Mo Shang Tong Dan Dan said: "Nothing is impossible; many things are not as simple as they appear to you."

After hanging up the phone, Hua Zhenxing still wore a smile. Old Yang snorted coldly and said, "What are you so happy about? Doctor Luo saved the Xia family, and Xia should help Doctor Luo himself, but in the end, he didn't dare to do so and only secretly informed you. I do not like such people; in order to shirk their own responsibilities, they drag innocent friends into danger and actually let you take the risk.

Hua Zhenxing couldn't help but think of his dream colleague and classmate, Zhu Meng, and his mood suddenly soured. Just then, his phone rang. He took it out and saw that the caller was an unfamiliar landline number. His eyes brightened as if he had guessed something. Upon answering, he indeed heard Xia Er's voice saying: "Hua, listen, don't say a word, Jin Datou is going to kill Dr. Luo! I wanted to tell you last night, but I didn't dare to say it. You need to find a way to warn Dr. Luo; I know you must have a way! After answering, he indeed heard Xia Er's voice saying: 'Hua, listen, don't say a word, Jin Datou is going to kill Dr. Luo! I wanted to tell you last night, but I didn't dare to say it. You need to find a way to warn Dr. Luo; I know you must have a way! Don't tell anyone that I leaked this information, remember, I never made this call..."

Mo Shangtong then spoke again: "The task I have set is very simple, which is to ensure Dr. Luo's safe departure from here, preventing Jin Datou from succeeding. As for how to accomplish this, you can decide for yourself." He pointed to a large bundle by the door and said, "You may find some items useful; I have tried to prepare everything for you, so choose for yourself."

Old Yang squinted his eyes and said, "I am just afraid that he is not as foolish as he appears, and that he has ulterior motives."

Mo Shangtong: "I am already sitting here, what am I here for? I also remember many years ago you said that when faced with a situation, do not ask others why they do or do not do something, but only ask yourself what you should do. Did you not teach Xiao Hua this way?"

Hua Zhenxing: "He should have mentioned Dr. Luo's name." The tone was filled with disappointment

Yang Tehong: "What you have seen is all simplistic and brutal, not about right or wrong. How many cases have the police here solved?"

Xiar: "I, I, I am very poor at shooting! Please do not ask me again"

Last year, Xia'er’s aunt and sister fell ill, suffering from body aches and persistent fever. Xia'er sought help from Hua Zhenxing to invite Doctor Luo. Hua Zhenxing did not ask why they did not go directly to the hospital and hurriedly brought Doctor Luo over. The situation was quite critical; they were diagnosed with dengue fever. Doctor Luo urgently contacted the ward to admit both of them and then conducted examinations for others who had been in contact with them

Dr. Luo does not have the surname Luo; his full name is Luo Chaide. Referring to him simply as Luo is merely a habit of the locals in Moshangtong, essentially using his surname as his name. As for his first name, the local people are rather unaware of it. Luo Chaide arrived at Feisuo Port a year and a half ago, and he is an international doctor from the United States.

The infrastructure of Feisuo Port is quite poor, yet there is a super-large comprehensive hospital with nearly 2,000 beds available for patients across various departments. The hospital features very basic general wards and observation halls, as well as state-of-the-art operating rooms, laboratories, and intensive care units, equipped with advanced medical equipment from around the world

Mo Shang interrupted him, saying: "It's just a big-headed gang. If we can't handle this, then we have truly wasted years teaching Xiao Hua. He cannot remain a child forever. Since we have encountered this today, it is a test."

Old Yang: "I have been led astray by you"

Old Yang coughed and said, "Xiao Hua is still a child"

Gang conflicts in Feisuo Port are quite common, with almost daily fatalities. However, there are still rules in place. Doctors like Rothschild, who come from international relief organizations, cannot be harmed indiscriminately. If anything were to happen to him, the police would certainly investigate, and such incidents are considered major cases locally

Old Yang: "It could be very dangerous"

Hua Zhenxing: "The place of Feisuo Port has become very chaotic, it is not simple at all, almost every day there are deaths, I have been accustomed to it since I was young"

Mo Shang Tong: "You have gotten yourself entangled!"

Rothschild was quite surprised to find such a young man in the grocery store, who was genuinely concerned about Huazhenxing and had even studied the local dialect with him. He even believed that Huazhenxing should not continue to stay in this place and specifically sought out Old Yang to arrange for Huazhenxing to be connected with an adoptive family in the United States, intending to send Huazhenxing there for education and living.

Old Yang: "30,000 meters of gold, this is enough to drive many people crazy! Xiao Hua, you must be cautious about this matter; if you must take action, you must do so decisively and resolutely"

Hua Zhenxing smiled, and her mood instantly became much lighter. Before the other party could hang up, she asked: "What would you do if you encountered Dr. Luo, or if you saw me with Dr. Luo?"

At that time, there was an outbreak of dengue fever in the vicinity of Feisuo Port, resulting in numerous fatalities. Dr. Luo can be considered as having saved the Xia family, although Xia was not well acquainted with him; he was invited by Hua Zhenxing to provide assistance.

Hua Zhenxing stood up with his phone in hand and said: "I must help Dr. Luo, he still doesn't know that Jin Datou wants to kill him, what should I do?"

Old Yang: "You are really easily satisfied, your expectations of others are too low! If it’s just a phone call to remind him, wouldn’t he directly call Dr. Luo himself? If he doesn’t know the number, he can ask you. You are thinking too simply; if Jin Datou finds out that you intervened to save Dr. Luo, how could he let you off? Moreover, Jin Datou knows your relationship with him, so how could he let him off?"

Hua Zhenxing was slightly taken aback: "Should I ask Dr. Luo myself?"

Mo Shangtong further added: "Someone asked Jin Datou to eliminate Doctor Luo, promising him 30,000 meters of gold upon completion. This is the information I have gathered; as for the specific details, you can ask Doctor Luo yourself"

Mo Shangtong: "In a place like this, danger can arise at any moment. Should we just do nothing? Tell me, should Xiaohua go help Doctor Luo?"

Old Yang: "I remember that Doctor Luo has treated quite a few people from the Straw Sandal Gang, but what about your Straw Sandal Gang?"

Old Yang: "Xiao Hua's abilities are limited"

Old Yang certainly refused, as he had rejected similar suggestions in his early years, but it was evident that Rothschild had good intentions. Although Rothschild was not a member of the straw sandal gang, he had helped many locals.

Hua Zhenxing was taken aback: "Doctor Rothschild, why him? He has nothing to do with Jin Datou, and he hasn't offended anyone!"

Mo Shang Tong coldly remarked: "That friend of yours, the big guy Heixiaer, may not have told you the truth. It wasn't Jin Datou who asked him to find you, but rather he himself wanted to find you. He doesn't want to kill Doctor Luo but is afraid to disobey Jin Datou's orders, yet hopes you can remind Doctor Luo. This person is not as honest as he seems."

Mo Shangtong interjected, "This person is not entirely bad; given the circumstances here, we shouldn't set our expectations too high."

The two old men exchanged glances, and Yang Tehong was the first to speak: "It is your own decision; we will not offer any advice. Do as you see fit. I have taught you for so many years; let this be a test. The question I pose is—try to understand all the details as thoroughly as possible"

Old Yang's grocery store has the most complex supply channels in the area, allowing it to stock many practical and unique items that are not available in the supermarkets in the city center. Rothschild is also a frequent visitor. He speaks several languages, but does not know the local dialect or Eastern languages. The languages he speaks happen to be those that Huazhenxing can communicate in, while he does not know the languages that Huazhenxing is familiar with.

It was originally a tent hospital established by the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees fifteen years ago, which has not been dismantled since the outbreak of conflict. It has received donations from around the world and gradually developed into its current scale, referred to by locals as the international hospital. Rothschild is a volunteer with the Médecins Sans Frontières organization, who has come here to work voluntarily

Mo Shang asked in return: "Shouldn't it be so? Doctor Luo has saved many people here and has been very good to you, always wanting to help you. Now that you know Jin Datou wants to kill him, at the very least you should warn him and find a way to help him out of danger"

Now, Jin Datou intends to kill Doctor Luo, how can Hua Zhenxing ignore this? Upon hearing Old Yang's question, Hua Zhenxing quickly nodded and said, "I must help Doctor Luo escape!" He then sighed and said, "No wonder Xia Er is reluctant to take action; why does Jin Datou want to kill Doctor Luo?"

Yang Tehong said slowly and deliberately: "It is possible that he hesitated repeatedly and ultimately did not dare to speak. There is another possibility; he may not want to involve you and has decided to help Dr. Luo on his own. If this is not the case, then I think we can forget about this friend, and let this person go as well... Therefore, many things are not as simple as they appear on the surface, and you need to clarify them."

Hua Zhenxing retracted his smile and said, "But he did mention Dr. Luo's name after all"
