Chapter 430: Chapter 355 Putting Patients in Underwear Isn’t Conservative Treatment Anymore

"We’ve found the person."

The voice on the other end of the phone was Guo Koutangzi’s.

"Are they alive?"

Liu Zheng asked.

"I managed to keep her last breath alive with my soup, but if she doesn’t get to the hospital immediately, she’ll still die,"

Guo Koutangzi said.

"Then get her to the hospital right away."

Although hospitals are also known to bleed people dry, as the boss of the big bathhouse, he should be able to afford the medical expenses.

Otherwise, without a mandatory meal delivery system like the Bloody Restaurant, hospitals wouldn’t be able to operate.

"Easy for you to say; we’re surrounded by gangs from the Old City District, and we can’t break through."

Guo Koutangzi said.

"Huh? Where’s my big guy?"

"It’s all because of Niu Ma. We were about to leave when we ran into people from a gang that he had offended. They recognized us and stopped us right there,"

Guo Koutangzi said bitterly.

"Uh..."

Liu Zheng didn’t know what to say.

Those familiar with a place often have some connections there, sometimes favor, sometimes grudge.

One could only say that they and the boss of the Ga Ga Shuang Bathhouse were both pretty unlucky.

"So why are you calling me?"

He asked.

If the fight had already started, Guo Koutangzi wouldn’t have had time to call him.

"They say they’ll let us go, but we have to leave Niu Ma behind,"

Guo Koutangzi said.

"No way,"

Liu Zheng said without hesitation.

No matter whether Niu Ma had a way out or not, he couldn’t sacrifice his boss for a stranger.

If he had to choose between sacrificing himself or sacrificing Niu Ma, he would most likely choose to sacrifice himself.

Of course, that’s assuming Niu Ma didn’t betray him.

And Liu Zheng sincerely hoped that day would never come.

Though in a place like Metropolis, such hopes were undoubtedly a luxury.

"Then you’ll have to help them get someone out of the Security Department,"

Guo Koutangzi added.

"Don’t even think about it,"

He continued to refuse.

With the Nightingale kicked out of the house and the novelist unable to protect himself, where would he find someone to get the job done?

could do it, but Liu Zheng had just asked him for a favor.

He couldn’t keep imposing; he wasn’t their real dad nor their illegitimate child.

"Then give them money."

"How much?"

Liu Zheng asked.

"One million,"

"Give,"

he said.

"They want the money now,"

"Tell them to give a card number, and I’ll have the people from Ga Ga Shuang Bathhouse transfer the money now."

"They said they won’t accept transfers, only cash,"

Guo Koutangzi said.

"Let my big guy cover it for now,"

"I’ll ask."

A moment later, Guo Koutangzi’s voice came through again.

"Niu Ma said, do you really think he’s an ATM? How could he possibly carry that much cash on him?"

"What about you?"

"I don’t have nearly as big a belly as he does, and I certainly don’t carry much cash on me,"

Guo Koutangzi replied.

"Is there anything for collateral?"

Liu Zheng thought for a moment and then said.

"...you really are blunt,"

Guo Koutangzi said in disbelief.

"I’ve already called you here to the Old City District to rescue someone; do I need to be polite over such a trivial matter? Hurry up; don’t waste a trip if the person dies later,"

he urged.

"Even if I’m willing to give, they have to be willing to take it,"

Guo Koutangzi said.

"Then tell them this: either we make friends or we make enemies. Let them go inquire about my reputation. No matter how much time passes, no matter what their gang turns into, I’ll find them and blast them and their gang’s base to the sky,"

Liu Zheng said coldly.

"Tsk, such a big talk for a mere human,"

Guo Koutangzi muttered to himself and hung up the phone.

"That was really troubling for Manager Liu,"

Lao Si said obsequiously.

Having seen the mystery of the cashier and the miserable state of Secretary Li, he had a clearer understanding of the terror of the Bloody Restaurant.

At the same time, he had also gained some understanding of Liu Zheng’s status within the Bloody Restaurant.

The cashier might seem disrespectful to Liu Zheng, even slightly threatening in her words.

But such threats were a sign of her importance, just like when Lao Si found a greeter he didn’t like; he wouldn’t go up and scold them himself but would find their supervisor instead.

Now, Liu Zheng had actually found the big boss and even saved her life, which further proved his strength.

Lao Si dared not say that he would never enter the city for the rest of his life. Establishing a good relationship now, he might save his life if he ran into trouble in the city in the future.

"It’s no bother; I genuinely want to cooperate with your bathhouse. Let’s consider these preliminary investments. I think Manager Yuan will understand my good intentions, won’t he?"

Liu Zheng spoke at a leisurely pace.

"Of course, our boss might be a little indecisive about some things, but he’s definitely smart when it comes to business. Secretary Li and I will also give a nudge where necessary,"

Lao Si hastened to say.

"Good. Doctor, can Secretary Li be treated?"

Liu Zheng asked Doctor Nile.

"She can be treated, but the medical equipment I brought this time isn’t enough. Even if she recovers, she will drool. And even if we take her back to the clinic for treatment later, there will still be side effects,"

"Might as well keep her this way for now, and just bring her back to the clinic for a comprehensive treatment later,"

Doctor Nile suggested.

"Manager Si, what do you think?"

He looked toward Lao Si.

"Let’s follow the doctor’s advice for now and see how things go,"

Lao Si said.

By ’see how things go’, he naturally meant seeing whether the boss could be rescued or not.

If the boss was rescued, then there was no rush to treat Secretary Li.

If not, then Secretary Li had to regain her ability to move so that they could hold onto the most benefits amidst changes.
