Chapter 88

Searching for resources this way really made things much easier.

The System said this would be common knowledge for many people in the near future. Just how far would technology advance?

Su Fuling looked forward to that day arriving sooner.

Now that she'd gotten a taste of technology's convenience, she kept using this search function, and finally understood its benefit: the more conditions you provided, the more precise the search results.

Through continuously inputting search information, Su Fuling finally found a way to mask the smell of Shixiang Tendon-Softening Powder. Using pharmaceutical methods from another martial arts world, the medication's odor could be eliminated.

Su Fuling discovered that with this search function, she'd become greedy — not only wanting it colorless and odorless, but truly able to harm people invisibly. So she kept changing her search terms to find the resources needed.

She actually found a way.

This search ability was really useful!

The only problem was how quickly Merit Points were spent...

She'd just said she wanted to level up and save Merit Points. But after finding such a practical pharmaceutical method, how could Su Fuling possibly hold back?

She was itching to buy everything right away!

She silently thanked herself for only discovering this search function now. If she'd known about it earlier, how could she have ever settled down to study basic pharmacology and case studies? She would have become dependent on it long ago.

Fortunately, she'd already finished the basics, and through studying and real-world patient treatment, her medical skills had improved by leaps and bounds.

The next day, when Su Fuling went out, she actually saw Wen Shuang.

Now that was dedication!

Wen Shuang asked her where she was planning to buy a house, so she could rent a place nearby.

Su Fuling said, "Most likely still where I live now. Nothing's decided yet — I'll tell you later."

When she arrived at the Medical Clinic, Su Fuling first had Zhao Facai go purchase some tools. She wanted to try manufacturing the new Shixiang Tendon-Softening Powder right away, though Su Fuling gave it a new name: Fragranceless Tendon-Softening Powder.

She'd just entered the consultation room to start work, and the first person to walk in was yesterday's Liu Xiaohu with his parents. It showed how early these three had come.

Xiaohu's mother said happily, "Miracle Doctor, Xiaohu took the medicine last night and finally slept well."

Su Fuling: "...Is that so? Then the medicine must be right for his condition. Let me check his situation."

Xiaohu obediently extended his hand for the doctor姐姐 to treat him.

The small child had been worn down by illness until none of his lively spirit remained — the sight was heart-wrenching.

After taking his pulse, Su Fuling was quite satisfied internally. It hadn't been a waste of her time researching this condition.

"Very good. Continue with this prescription. Over the next few days, you don't need to come every day — come every other day."

As she spoke, she recorded the child's pulse changes.

Naturally, Liu Xiaohu's parents weren't reassured and wanted to come every day.

Su Fuling said, "I don't mind either way, but you live far away — I'm afraid it would be inconvenient for you to come."

"We're from Kowloon..." Liu Xiaohu's mother said casually, then was stopped by Xiaohu's father.

After leaving, they couldn't say they were from Kowloon City Walled City, otherwise the doctor wouldn't treat them. The two had even borrowed someone else's ID information to use temporarily. Because once they showed their ID, they would be driven away.

Xiaohu's mother realized she'd made a mistake and looked at Su Fuling nervously.

"Even if it weren't far, coming here isn't easy. But if you're willing to come, that's fine too."

Seeing that Su Fuling didn't seem to mind Kowloon Walled City, Xiaohu's mother said: "Miracle Doctor, you... don't despise us?"

Su Fuling looked at them. "Why would I?"

Xiaohu's mother and father: "..." Because other people despise them. When people from Kowloon Walled City go out, how could they not be despised by others? They feared police ID checks the most — they didn't even dare go shopping. Once when Xiaohu's mother went out to buy vegetables, the stall owner found out she was from Kowloon Walled City and used fire tongs to collect the money, afraid she carried germs.

The worst part was, hospitals wouldn't treat them either. That's why Xiaohu's illness hadn't been treated for so long.

Liu Xiaohu's mother got somewhat emotional: "Miracle Doctor, you're willing to treat people from our Kowloon Walled City?"

Su Fuling looked at her and gave a kind smile: "Of course. If anyone around you needs treatment, they can all come to me."

The couple's faces instantly lit with surprise.

The two then confessed their real names to Su Fuling. The registered names were Liu Fei and Li Mei, but actually one was Liu Dahu and the other Lin Cuifen. Both were people living in Kowloon City Walled City, usually doing casual labor at the Pier. They really did have others around them who needed treatment, but they could only see the unlicensed dentist in the Walled City — and even that dentist couldn't treat many conditions.

Su Fuling: "..." She was unlicensed too. But she had a Mainland certificate — she was recognized by an organization. She suddenly felt she had nothing to be ashamed about.

And so, Kowloon Walled City actually had a whole group of people who had difficulty seeing a doctor!

She suddenly felt Merit Points waving at her.

"Just let people around you come for treatment. If it's a condition I need to study, I can reduce the fees."

Lin Cuifen said awkwardly, "Everyone has trouble leaving. If they encounter police checking IDs, it's very troublesome. We also spent a great deal of effort borrowing someone's identity."

Su Fuling didn't understand these complicated situations in Harbor City very well. They were all people living in the same place — why were there different governance methods? But remembering that foreign powers were still in charge now, it somehow made sense.

"How about this: if people over there need treatment, I can make an appointment to set up a stall at the Walled City gate to see patients. If you're willing, go back and get a count. Illnesses need to be treated early."

She thought the other party would be delighted, but Liu Dahu still shook his head because it wasn't safe. Kowloon Walled City had all sorts of people — good people and bad people too — and it was a lawless zone. He didn't want this young female miracle doctor to go there. He explained some of the Walled City's situation.

Su Fuling thought to herself, the only difference was one place had police management and the other didn't.

But she really didn't want to give up such a big "market" — so many people inside had difficulty seeing a doctor. As a doctor, Su Fuling absolutely could not allow that.

"It's settled. I know the Sifang Association, so I'll just bring more people."

The couple lived in Kowloon Walled City, so of course they knew about the Sifang Association in Yau Ma Tei. They instantly understood where this doctor got her courage.

Liu Dahu was instantly excited: "Miracle Doctor, thank you, miracle doctor — we don't know how to thank you... If there's any heavy labor work, you can all find me."

Su Fuling said, "Alright, take the children home early."

Liu Dahu and his wife quickly returned to Kowloon Walled City.

Entering the Walled City was like stepping into another world — it was even more crowded than Yau Ma Tei, with almost no sunlight to be seen, damp and dark. But this was home to many people.

The two returned to their neighborhood, and along the way encountered many people greeting them, asking if the child's treatment went smoothly and if they encountered any trouble.

Lin Cuifen smiled and said, "No trouble — we met a noble person. From now on, our Kowloon Walled City finally has a place to get treated."

Someone immediately said, "Oh, really?"

Lin Cuifen nodded smilingly and repeated Su Fuling's words. She told everyone that the miracle doctor was willing to treat people from the Walled City.

"The miracle doctor is really amazing. When she treated our Xiaohu, Xiaohu took the medicine just once and is already getting better. The miracle doctor's Medical Clinic is also very big — we went early today and saw many well-dressed people getting treated. There was even someone wearing Department of Health uniform. We were so scared at the time, thinking they were checking on us. But they didn't pay any attention to us at all — they were very polite talking to the miracle doctor's apprentice."

Wow —

Then this doctor must be really amazing. If even the police were polite to her, she was definitely someone with real ability.

Liu Dahu said, "I'll go tell everyone first — see how many people need treatment. Everyone should set a time and prepare the money."

There were naturally many people who needed treatment, but money wasn't so easy to prepare. Because many people in the Walled City worked and earned money inside the Walled City, using currency that wasn't Hong Kong dollars. To use it outside, they needed to exchange it. The black market would deduct a lot of fees.

Even so, many people were still willing to exchange. After all, medical treatment came first.

Several people came to Liu Dahu: "Dahu, is the news real? Is there really a miracle doctor willing to come treat us?"

"Yes," Liu Dahu said. "The miracle doctor said so herself."

"Oh, that's wonderful." The person who got the confirmation immediately ran off to exchange money.

But Liu Dahu actually had some doubts in his heart. He was worried the miracle doctor had just said it casually and wasn't really going to come. If she didn't come after everyone exchanged their money, he wouldn't have any way to handle it.

But they could only take the chance. People living here had no other options.

After Su Fuling finished her morning work, she called Chen Shan. She asked about the situation in Kowloon Walled City — she needed to know the specific circumstances and what kinds of people were there.

Chen Shan said, "Is Doctor Su going to Kowloon Walled City?"

Su Fuling told him about her plan to go treat people. "If I need to go, I'll need you to arrange people to maintain order." Though she wasn't afraid of being harmed, she didn't want to cause chaos wherever she went — it was best if nothing happened.

So, any strength that could be displayed externally should be shown. To avoid trouble coming to her and affecting her work.

This was the first time Su Fuling had arranged something for him to do. Chen Shan immediately felt more energetic: "Doctor Su, don't worry. I'll gather plenty of people then. I'll contact some of the local associations in advance to prevent any conflicts."

Su Fuling was naturally satisfied with this: "Okay, thank you for the trouble this time."

Chen Shan said: "Doctor Su, this is my duty."

After Su Fuling hung up, Chen Shasha said, "Oh, Doctor Su, you're going to Kowloon Walled City to treat people?"

Su Fuling said, "Yes, I just learned how difficult it is to get medical treatment in Kowloon Walled City."

Chen Shasha exclaimed.

Zhao Facai frowned: "Master, there are a lot of bad people in there. The reputation is really terrible."

Su Fuling looked at him: "Xiaohu's parents don't look like bad people. There must be many more like them. Are all the people in such a big Walled City bad?"

Chen Shasha said, "Exactly. You used to be a con man, Old Scammer, and Doctor Su didn't despise you."

Zhao Facai: "..."

Su Fuling said, "Alright, let's eat. I'm going to Mama Liang's Orphanage later — Shasha, come with me."

Chen Shasha immediately gave Zhao Facai a smug smile.

Only Wen Shuang silently watched them. She really couldn't figure out this Doctor Su.

Why would she go to Kowloon Walled City to treat people when there was no money to be made?

At noon, no matter how much Zhao Facai tried to flatter her, Su Fuling still insisted on taking Chen Shasha out.

Chen Shasha was overjoyed and immediately went outside to call a car. After getting in the car, she said to Su Fuling, "Doctor Su, do you want to get a car? I can drive — I'll be your driver!"

She thought she was really clever. This way, there would definitely be a place for her by Doctor Su's side.

Su Fuling said, "A car?"

"Oh, taking taxis is so convenient now — why buy a car?" The driver immediately educated her about the costs of buying a car, and finally told Su Fuling that buying a car was worse than taking taxis.

"If the doctor is worried about taking taxis being inconvenient, you can book a private car in advance."

Chen Shasha sat in the passenger seat, wishing she could stare a hole through him.

Su Fuling actually thought booking a private car would be easier. Buying a car would cost tens of thousands, and it would be hard to resell later — not worth it.

"I'll consider it."

The driver quickly gave his card to Su Fuling. If she wanted to book a private car, she could call the taxi company and ask for him.

...

The children at Mama Liang's Orphanage who had been sick before had recovered, and now some other children had minor illnesses. Fortunately, they were all small problems — Su Fuling only prescribed simple folk remedies and cured them.

Now that Su Fuling was helping, the children at the Orphanage no longer had to fear being untreatable when sick. Mama Liang was very happy in her heart. She also thought of her old friend's entrustment and felt truly conflicted.

When Su Fuling was about to leave, she spoke up and said that a friend of hers was also the director of an Orphanage. She wanted to ask if Doctor Su could go treat the children there too. Even if she had to pay some money was fine. The main thing was that Doctor Su's reputation had spread through the Orphanages — everyone knew there was such a doctor who could treat difficult and complicated diseases. What Orphanage children feared most was getting complex illnesses that were hard to treat.

"Doctor Su, someone heard about this and came to inquire at my place. If your burden is too heavy now, I can help you decline."

Director Liang felt very apologetic, because Doctor Su was already undertaking free consultations at two Orphanages.

Decline? Of course she couldn't do that!

Su Fuling felt she had great Merit Points luck today — first discovering Kowloon Walled City, a place with such difficulty getting medical treatment, and now taking on another Orphanage's free consultations.

"Director Liang, don't worry. I can still handle it." The free consultation account had over a million. She purchased her own medicinal herbs — minor illnesses didn't cost much, and major illnesses weren't common.

But Su Fuling thought about the people in Kowloon Walled City — there were far too many poor people. Next time, if someone wanted to donate consultation fees to her, she definitely wouldn't refuse.

Ah, if she'd known earlier, that time when the Longhu Association came to her door, she should have intimidated them into paying in cash instead.

Su Fuling also knew that once missed, it was missed. Wang Jinhu certainly wouldn't offend her again.

At that moment, Wang Jinhu, who was negotiating business with someone, suddenly shivered for no reason.

Feeling like he was being watched, he looked around — all his trusted people were there. He figured no one was lying in wait for him.

This time he'd brought good business, so of course the other party would treat him well.
