At the time of a new beginning, the sun shines on the surface of the lake, and something new is ushered in the bright morning.
Minneapolis, somewhere downtown,
It is still an underground place where no information can be found by just passing through the location. In the underground space like a bar, several unusual but extraordinary figures sit together.
"It's only been two nights since we broke into the coastal base, and we were called again so soon,"
Still dressed in black, handsome and beautiful, the figure sitting on the main seat of the sofa is wild and sloppy, and his slender legs show a sense of randomness.
Selika looked up at the screen with only voice, and the agent who didn't want to let them know any other information first spoke:
"What do you want to do this time?"
On the seats around the coffee table in the center of the bar, Annabella embraced her beautiful and proud hands, Ryder waited calmly for a response, and Sion’s middle-aged face smiled.
But Lynn, who was sitting upright and covering her face, remained silent and silent.
Last night, each of them received an emergency contact from Fiesder, and flew from all over North America to the city of Minneapolis to gather again.
Although it has been known in Los Angeles that this commission is a large commission with more than one mission,
But they really did not expect that the next mission would come so soon,
Only two days have passed...
"Because of some emergencies, there is an urgent task that needs to be entrusted to you."
The voice of the agent was heard on the TV usually used to play music, and listening to his tense tone revealed that he was not optimistic, Selika asked casually without caring:
"Are you playing your trump card again?"
"You don't want to pick up no one to stop you."
Humming indifferently, when she heard Selika's words, Annabella looked at her with slanting eyes, still speaking hostilely.
Obviously, the last time the team acted together did not cultivate the slightest friendship in this team.
Regarding the verbal contention of the top two women in the team, no one else said anything, and listening to Annabella’s usual words stabbed, they didn’t care.
Selika leaned on the sofa, as if the beautiful figure from the chaotic neighborhood in the movie matched the background of the bar.
"What is the mission this time?"
Speaking calmly, the most reliable figure among the crowd, Ryder looked at the screen and asked,
"Yes, can it be the same as last time, breaking into the official base to face the powerful enemies of the association?"
With the appearance of a middle-aged and kind and handsome uncle, Sion also smiled to ease the atmosphere.
The agent's voice was silent for a while, and then slowly spoke:
"It may be more difficult than that."
...
Surprised, arguing, discussing, confirming the plan, several hours of pre-war meeting ended, and as a C-class identity did not say much, the last one came out of the underground bar,
Fang Ran looked at the dark and elongated luxury car parked in front of him at exactly this moment, and directly pulled the door of the car to leave.
"The relationship between Rufas and the Future Consortium has been confirmed, the location of the medical company's factory has also been found, and the actions with other participants have been smoothly finalized,"
"The only thing left is to find the hidden dangers of the other party to recover funds and prevent the association's plan to let the medical field stocks fall..."
Seeing Fang Ran finished meeting the participants into the car and talking about the progress of the matter one by one, Adeline looked at him raising his hands on his legs, showing the soft space on his thighs.
"Master, do you want to sleep?"
"Um?"
Listening to her usual report, by the way, thinking about the action plan from the meeting just now tonight, and repeating the exercise simulation in my mind to confirm that there were no omissions.
Hearing this sudden turn of words, he subconsciously looked at Adeline for a moment.
"Long-time tightness is not conducive to adjustment. Since the night before yesterday, Master, you have been like a high-speed gear."
"what...."
She was shocked by what she said, and she was a little embarrassed of reflection.
Perhaps it was the chase that crossed the urban area and the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco, or perhaps it was the pressure to lose as much as 10 billion U.S. dollars.
Let him feel the urgency of the sudden change of the situation, the sense of crisis was ignited,
Once he perceives the crisis or locks in on the target, he will slowly become quiet, serious, and secure.
This is his character,
It's also a bad habit he has had since he was a child...
Fang Ran has already begun to reflect on whether he is too ruthless about the two employees who may have just gotten some kickbacks...
Thinking that Adeline was right, for tonight’s action, I should really relax and adjust, but I’m not ashamed to lie on her lap.
Fang Ran exhaled a long breath, relaxing his straight shoulders and leaning against the luxurious soft seat in the car.
"Ha...I'm okay, the participants are very strong, but you sleep as short as I do, are you okay with running around?"
"Sleep with the young master who is very physically strong?"
Fang Ran: "..."
?(Д╬Don’t pretend to be a foreigner who doesn’t understand Chinese at this time!
Looking at Adeline’s indifferent and beautiful face, listening to her calmly and indifferently uttering this kind of tiger-wolf words that are completely contrary to her temperament, I feel that something has been run over her face.
Fang Ran, who could only yell in shame and spit in his heart, finally exhaled silently.
But after listening to the iceberg beauty saying this to herself, her heartbeat speeded up, and she was so "interrupted" by her, and her mind that had been busy for a while for the past two days suddenly relaxed a lot.
Fang Ran let out a breath, pressed the button to lower the car window,
Looking at the scenery outside the window while the tip of her hair was blown by the wind, she focused her attention on this brand-new city that had clearly arrived but had not had time to understand.
"What is that beautiful white building?"
"The Basilica of St. Mary is a Roman Catholic Pontifical Basilica, belonging to the Catholic St. Paul and the Archdiocese of Minnepolis..."
...
"Is that a city lake?"
"Well, Lake Calhoun, the largest and most popular lake in Minneapolis, has a surface area of 401 acres and an average depth..."
...
"What is that building?"
"The Walker Art Center, one of the most famous modern art museums in the United States, was built in 1879..."
Listening to Adeline's introduction to the special landscape she was curious about along the way, Fang Ran looked at her curiously and asked how she knew everything:
"You come here so often, why are you so familiar?"
"No, considering the young master you might ask, I have deliberately learned about this city before I came here."
I was stunned for this answer, and for a moment I thought about Los Angeles and San Francisco, too. I don’t know what to say about her powerful ability without any omission.
Fang Ran had to continue to look at the scenery passing by the car window.
Then he saw a white cube building with a large area.
"What's there again?"
"That is a private hospital under Fiesder's name that favors nursing. It's our industry."
Saying an answer that made Fang Ran stunned, Adeline's calm eyes stared at him:
"Master, do you want to go and see?"
"Is it okay?"
Hearing her saying this, Fang Ran looked at her and asked, and then heard Adeline's confident answer.
"Of course, you are the CEO of the entire Fiesld industry. Whether it is to expand it or sell it directly, it can be determined by one of your ideas."
As the white and cold beauty's words fell, the dark and long luxury car stopped at the entrance of the hospital.
I walked down from the car and looked at a fairly large hospital building in front of me. I don’t know what Adeline had contacted. The journey was unimpeded, and Fang Ran walked through the hall with her.
After passing through the diagnostic building, the crowd was looking at the figure, all the way to the back of the hospital.
A clear and clean corridor with the unique taste of the hospital, looking at the white-clothed figures everywhere chasing classes and working, and an environment of non-specific conversation, he pressed the button of the device in his ear to translate the language floating in the surrounding environment.
Did not visit the hospital’s various advanced equipment and performance results like the leader’s inspection.
Fang Ran just followed in Adelin’s footsteps, watching the scene inside the hospital along the way.
Then when I heard a cry floating in the headset device of You Ye Xingchen,
He stopped suddenly and looked at one place.
"What's the matter, master?"
Stopping also, Adeline asked softly beside him.
Without answering, Fang Ran just walked in one direction, around the corner of the corridor, and then he saw the source of the cry.
That is a woman.
She has blond hair in her thirties, and she can tell that she is a beautiful young lady, but she is standing in front of a doctor at the moment, working hard several times on her face, trying to show a smile that wins the favor of the other party.
But until the end of the effort, only the reluctance and heartbreak with red eyes and tears falling from above,
She didn't dare to look away and shook her head, afraid to hear rejection and denial. She pulled on the last line of defense against crying, and choked into the humble opening of prayer:
"Please, doctor, I beg you, I will sell the house to make up for the cost of the operation, I can pay anything, so... please, please help him..."
And listening to this uncomfortable request, the doctor's face flashed with embarrassment and dumbness. After silence, he was extremely cautious and afraid of stimulating the difficult opening of the woman in front of him:
"I will do my best to find a transplantable liver for him..."
Even such an uncertain promise was regarded by a woman as the only life-saving straw. She clung to the doctor's hand tightly, and bowed her head in grief.
In the torrent of tears, the only word was repeated faintly and gratefully.
"Thank you...thank you...thank you..."
Fang Ran watched this scene from the corner of the corridor,
Watching the doctor leave, watching the woman calm down her tears after a long time, dry her eyes and worry about being seen, she tried her best to smile and walked into the ward.
Unconsciously, he followed lightly, and finally stopped in front of the door of the ward, looking at the scene in the ward through the glass.
The beautifully smiling woman was talking to the man in the hospital bed,
They chatted very happily.
But the man didn't seem to have much energy. After talking to her for a while, his voice slowly sank sleepily. His words slowly became less but his eyes remained on the woman's face.
After staring at her in a dream for a long time, she suddenly showed a weak but gentle smile. When she gently shook her head, it was affectionate and serious:
"Honey, you can't sell the house, Tereza is still young...she needs those..."
But the tears rolled down from his eyes, holding his hand tightly, and hearing this, the woman just smiled and was wet with tears.
"But I need you."
Then he held his hand against his forehead, fearing that he would disappear from the world in the next second, and his shoulders trembled and begged in tears.
"Please, don't leave me..."
...
Standing outside the door, Fang Ran's eyes fixedly watched this scene.
Do you always see too many life and death separations when you stay in the hospital?
At this moment, I felt like I was caught by something, and I took the diagnosis report sent by a doctor at this moment, and then watched him leave without daring to ask more.
Adeline, who has been quiet since just now, read the medical records next to Fang Ran:
"The patient's history of hepatitis B was not taken seriously. Today, jaundice, anemia, yellowing of urine, B-surreal liver shadows, diagnosis of primary liver cancer,"
"At present, the main symptomatic treatment is the removal of jaundice and the transfusion of red blood cells."
"The doctor recommended a liver transplant and wait for the liver source,"
"The matching result is blood type O, RH negative blood."
Her calm and cold voice seemed to make the text extremely cold when she said these, while listening to Adeline’s words,
Fang Ran just fixedly looked inside the ward, and asked quietly and wonderingly:
"Can't that man be saved?"
"Yes, but it's difficult,"
Adeline said the answer without being gentle.
"It is not easy to find a matching liver resource, even if there is a suitable liver resource..."
"You also need to line up."
Fang Ran's eyes widened slightly when he heard the last two words.
It wasn't until he knew such a fair and cruel reality that he suddenly realized that such a scene did not only exist in front of him, and then listened to Adeline's plain statement.
"Liver and kidney are the most important needs in organ transplantation, but not everyone has the opportunity to transplant organs. Every year, I don't know how many people who can't wait for a matching organ die."
"There is no way to artificially make organs, we can only rely on the donation of dead bodies, which is far from enough,"
"This is the limit of the current level of human medical care."
Limitations of modern medicine...
Listening to her last words silently, there seemed to be some unknown emotion surging in my heart at this moment.
"and,"
But before Fang Ran could figure out this feeling, he heard Adeline say a reality that was more cruel than just now.
"The medical expenses for liver transplantation are very expensive, and she may not be able to get it out."
Silent silence, glanced at the woman in the ward who was still holding her husband's right hand, and then looked at Adeline and asked in a soft voice:
"How much does it cost?"
"The overall cost is about 600,000 US dollars. Almost all of the 600,000 US dollars are paid by the ACEM medical insurance company that they have purchased. However, the additional hospital expenses incurred by the nutritional drugs and waiting for the liver source..."
"All the expenses outside the scope of compensation are still not a small sum."
Still omniscient to answer Fang Ran's question, Adeline finished saying that, and then added the patient's family information in the hospitalization data.
"They are just slightly affluent families with an annual income of more than 100,000. This expense is very difficult for them."
Do you want to save even if you might go bankrupt...
"I read the information on the Internet that one of the reasons why this country's medical care is so expensive is that many measures that want to reduce costs are always used by a strong top medical interest group like Fiesde."
"Through strong government lobbying ability and personal connections, it was dismantled in advance, isn't it?"
Listening to the sharp question that Fang Ran asked softly at this moment, Adeline lowered her eyes lightly without any wavering.
"I do not deny."
"So am I helping to abuse him?"
It’s not sarcasm or self-deprecating, through the glass, to witness such a sad scene,
Fang Ran just really couldn't think of the answer from the heart at this moment. UU reading www.uukanshu.com
What the young man does is to help the reality eliminate the infringement of night battles, not to help anyone grow stronger in reality. Knowing this difference in nature, he will not understand.
But can understand his feelings after witnessing such a scene, Adeline also looked at the scene in the ward and spoke softly:
"Fisteld is the world's largest financial consortium. Its size has blurred the boundaries between capitalists and entrepreneurs. We are involved in various fields, from military to people's livelihood, from shipping to aerospace,"
"We earn huge profits and feed countless families,"
"As for whether its existence is good or bad, my position cannot be clarified to you,"
Withdrawing her gaze, she raised her calm and unwavering eyes to Fang Ran.
"This requires your own judgment, Master."
Hearing Adeline's words, Fang Ran watched her for a long time before coming back to her senses, and then she was silent for a little while, raising her gaze again to stare at the two figures in the ward and gently asking the last question.
"If Etham's 10 billion can't be recovered, will it affect their payment of surgical fees?"
"Yes, and it's not just them."
Listening to the answer that I thought of a long time ago, looking at the glass floor, the woman was holding on to the man's hand by the hospital bed, unwilling to let go.
Fang Ran stared at this scene for a long time.
After taking a deep breath, he turned around and walked out without hesitation!
I came to North America to pursue the truth about the plan of the association of the gods, and to help Fiesde get rid of the crisis from the night battle,
Tonight’s action on the research institute factory was to find out the darkness it contained, to recover the tens of billions of dollars from ACEM, and to prevent the medical sector’s stocks from falling losses on Wall Street.
But now, the pace is quicker again, walking towards the outside of the hospital,
Fang Ran felt that he had another reason.
