The world has turned into Hell's Game, why should I stay human?!-Chapter 1279 - 788: Damn You, Mosquito!

"Alright, thank you."

said Hu Tutu politely.

Liu Zheng made a motion to push open the door, but she stopped him with a glance.

Hu Tutu had seen Yang Fengdian and heard its voice, and the voice inside was definitely not it.

Although there was also a possibility that Yang Fengdian could change its voice, that likelihood was very low.

If Yang Fengdian could guess that they were here to cause trouble, then it wouldn’t be a doctor but a Prophet.

Liu Zheng nodded slightly, choosing to respect the opinion of the professional.

Since Yang Fengdian was not in the office, the two took the elevator back to the 8th floor.

Hu Tutu did not go directly to the parasitic experiment area but first found the women’s locker room.

Forethought ensures safety; in case their rescue attempt failed, she could escape with Liu Zheng. At least the high consultation fee would not be in vain.

Although Liu Zheng did not know her thoughts, prioritizing self-preservation was only human, so he said nothing.

After confirming the location of the women’s locker room, Hu Tutu led Liu Zheng to the parasitic experiment area.

The experimental area, of course, was not like the large office spaces in office buildings where everyone was crowded together; it was divided into many separate rooms.

"Which lab is Doctor Yang in?"

Hu Tutu muttered to herself.

This time, she was not speaking to Liu Zheng but really did not know which lab Yang Fengdian was in.

After all, in previous instances, Hu Tutu had delivered gifts to Yang Fengdian in the office.

But it was not a big problem; if she didn’t know, someone else would.

Hu Tutu took out her phone and sent out a few messages and soon received a reply.

"Turns out it’s over here."

She murmured to herself again as she arrived in front of a laboratory.

A silver matte metal security door had an elephant head without ivory embedded in it, and beneath the elephant head was a fingerprint and password lock like those on a bank vault.

Liu Zheng looked at the elephant head, sensing a faint feeling of danger.

He suspected that if he entered the wrong password, the elephant head would immediately grow tusks and pierce him.

Hu Tutu stepped forward and pressed a button on the door lock.

She waited for a while without any response, so she pressed it again.

This time, after a few minutes, a voice finally came through the speaker.

"Who?"

The voice was clear and indifferent like a surgical scalpel.

"Hello, Doctor Yang. I am Hu Tutu, the manager from ’Undying’ Medical Consultation Company, here to deliver something to you."

Hu Tutu replied in a calm and polite tone.

"I don’t need it."

Yang Fengdian rejected without hesitation.

"Our company is conducting a mid-year promotional event, and you’ve won the first prize, which is a set of surgical knives handcrafted by Master Mayo."

Hu Tutu lifted the gift box in her hand towards the camera.

Master Mayo is a remarkable craftsman and, notably, also a highly skilled surgeon.

Therefore, the surgical knives he crafted are always very practical and valuable, with a set costing at least over twenty thousand, requiring pre-order.

Hu Tutu had prepared only one set, originally intended as a gift for a rising genius in general surgery, but to fulfill a major client’s request, she had to use it now.

"The real reason?"

As expected, Yang Fengdian was tempted.

Though it could afford to buy it, not taking something free would be a waste.

Moreover, by saving this money, it could buy more consumables.

"I believe a genius like you, who excels in both clinical work and research, will inevitably reach great heights, so I want to invest now, when you’re still in a low phase, hoping to gain even greater returns."

Hu Tutu organized her words and said.

"To win me over, a set of surgical knives isn’t enough."

Yang Fengdian sneered.

"This is just a stepping stone, hoping Doctor Ma would give us a chance to strengthen our relationship."

Hu Tutu said with a smile.

She deliberately used the word "we" to make Yang Fengdian think that Liu Zheng was her colleague; anyway, she could later explain that "we" referred to the ’Undying’ company as a whole.

"I am a bit busy now, leave the items and the business card, and I will contact you later."

said Yang Fengdian.

"Doctor Yang, we came with sincerity and hope that despite your busy schedule, you could spare a moment to meet us so I can have a proper report upon returning. I personally have great faith in your medical skills and character, but the company still has some concerns about your personality. I’m afraid that if I return and report like this, the company might develop unnecessary hesitations about increasing investment in you."

Hu Tutu said calmly.

"How much investment can you increase?"

asked Yang Fengdian.

"An independent laboratory."

She replied.

"Inside the hospital or outside."

Yang Fengdian pressed further.

"For now, definitely outside the hospital. Even if the company is willing to fund an independent laboratory within the hospital, it likely wouldn’t get past the hospital administration."

Hu Tutu said honestly.

Yang Fengdian was only an attending doctor, not even a senior one, so even if the company did fund an independent lab, it wouldn’t end up in its hands, at most granting it priority usage rights.

"Your level isn’t just about winning me over."

Yang Fengdian’s tone was slightly playful.

Even an outside hospital laboratory required at least a level of investment in the millions.

Spending millions to win over someone, a normal company would first cut off the person who proposed it. 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖

"We’re very interested in your paper on the blood-sucking vine."

Hu Tutu said implicitly.

"Oh~ then you do have some vision. Hold on a moment."
