Dr. Li suddenly stopped, staring intently at Zhou Liwan, and the room fell into a sudden silence.

Zhou Liwan's heart was beating a little fast, but she still tried to remain calm and asked, "What's wrong, Dr. Li?"

Dr. Li stared straight at them for a moment before suddenly smiling: "Your grandfather's illness isn't tuberculosis; he has lung cancer."

Zhou Liwan exclaimed in surprise, "Is this serious? Can it be cured? How could this happen? I've never heard them mention this before. Why would a family keep it a secret?!"

After Zhou Liwan said those words, Dr. Li's expression returned to its previous kind demeanor: "Cancer isn't necessarily difficult to treat. Throughout China's five thousand years of history, there are still many mysterious and effective remedies. Haven't you noticed how much better your grandfather's condition has been these past few days?"

Zhou Liwan and Jiang Shiyue exchanged a mysterious glance, both secretly becoming extremely alert.

Jiang Shiyue spoke first: "I have heard about this. It seems that in one of the classic readings we had in junior high school, Mr. Zhou Shuren wrote about a secret recipe."

A mysterious smile appeared on Dr. Li's lips as he slowly walked back and sat down: "That's right, although there are minor differences, there is no major difference."

The two were instantly shocked and speechless for a long time.

Zhou Liwan pretended not to know and pressed, "What are you talking about? Explain yourself clearly, I don't understand."

Dr. Li smiled and explained, "It's normal that you don't know this, because these are just some so-called folk remedies. They have no scientific basis, but..."

Jiang Shiyue seemed somewhat smug, believing he knew more than Zhou Li, and joked, "Let me teach you more books. Besides, I heard that the best thing is from a woman, and it has to be extremely fresh."

Dr. Li nodded mysteriously, but clearly didn't want to say more because of Jiang Shiyue's profession: "Alright, these are just casual conversations between us. If you're sick, you still have to go to the hospital."

Jiang Shiyue burst into laughter: "Of course! Who would dare to use that method these days? Wouldn't that be openly challenging and provoking the public security, procuratorate, and courts? Don't you agree, Dr. Li?"

Dr. Li didn't reply, but just smiled faintly.

However, Zhou Liwan and Jiang Shiyue already know the truth.

Jiang Shiyue took out his phone, sent Bai Gu his location, and then confirmed the recording again.

After confirming that everything was in order, Jiang Shiyue stopped testing the waters and became more cautious.

He looked directly at Dr. Li and asked, "I wonder if Dr. Li has ever used this method to treat his own patients?"

Zhou Liwan instinctively gripped the sofa beneath her, her mind taut with anxiety.

She didn't dare blink, staring intently at Dr. Li's reaction.

Dr. Li, as if expecting them to ask this question, replied calmly, "Officer Jiang, you're not here for a medical check-up today, are you?"

Jiang Shiyue didn't waste his breath. He had already observed the area and found it to be a villa district with the residents scattered around, making it difficult to hide anyone.

Moreover, there was no one else in the house except him. Even if Zhou Liwan hadn't come, he could have easily taken her down by himself.

Therefore, he was confident in this game.

"Please consider this as a casual conversation. Dr. Li, could you please answer my question? Have you used this on your patients? What were the results?"

Dr. Li clapped his hands with a smile: "Officer Jiang is indeed sharp-eyed and perceptive. Unfortunately, experience counts. Do you think you'll walk out of here unscathed today?"

The next second, every corner of the room was filled with tall men in black. Looking at those muscular men, Zhou Liwan swallowed hard.

Fortunately, I had borrowed a team of bodyguards from my grandfather beforehand, and they were lying in wait not far away, otherwise they would have really been in trouble this time.

Zhou Liwan quietly pressed the notification button, then sat up straight again.

"Dr. Li, what do you mean by this? We've known each other for so many years, you can't possibly not know who's behind me, can you?"

Dr. Li laughed loudly, "How naive! You think we're afraid of the Jiang family? It seems you know nothing about the power behind us."

Jiang Shiyue comforted Zhou Liwan for a moment, then said, "Since that's the case, let's not hide anything anymore. Did you guys do the work on the female corpse at Luoguang Mountain?"

Dr. Li raised an eyebrow and said smugly, "Over the years, we've searched for quite a few medicinal herbs, but unfortunately, you haven't found any of them. Instead, this body was just lying on the mountain path waiting to be discovered by you. Haven't you police thought about why?"

"You guys are really arrogant!"

"Hahahaha! What's wrong with being arrogant? To tell you the truth, I knew the moment you walked in that you weren't here for medical treatment. We've been searching for this female corpse from Luoguang Mountain for a long time. She was healthy, without any infectious diseases or illnesses. And she was a virgin. Clean blood really does have an effect!"

Jiang Shiyue clenched his fists as he listened: "That was a living, breathing human being! How could you, as a doctor, do such a thing?"

Dr. Li scoffed, "If you're too soft-hearted in this world, you'll be the one who gets eaten alive. You're too young to understand the wickedness of this society."

Zhou Liwan interrupted from the side: "This is not a reason for you to do evil. Don't try to change the subject!"

Dr. Li turned his head: "Girl, don't get it wrong. This was proposed by your grandfather back then. He did everything he could to live a few more years. Compared to him, what I did was nothing."

Zhou Liwan's face turned pale, and a sudden, intense sense of unease rose in her heart: "What do you mean? Explain it more clearly."

"Since you're not going to leave here alive today anyway, I'll tell you a little more. Your grandfather and your cousin Zhou Boyan are essentially the same kind of people. One might have a genetic defect, but the other might be inherently evil. When those two are together, even the purest angel would be toyed with as if falling into hell."

Zhou Liwan said, trembling, "What do you mean? Explain yourself clearly!"

Dr. Li clearly didn't want to say more, and turned to walk into the bedroom: "Get to work. Feed the man to the dog, and take the woman to the medical room. After checking and confirming that she has no history of illness, take her to the operating room."

After saying that, he disappeared, and the men in black quickly surrounded him.

Jiang Shiyue held Zhou Liwan protectively in his arms, clearly underestimating Dr. Li. He had been trying to stall for time so that the Bai family could hurry up and bring their people over.

But it would take at least ten minutes, and that Dr. Li was very cunning, not wasting any time on them at all.

At this moment, the man in black made his move. Jiang Shiyue was no match for four men, and Zhou Liwan was quickly dragged away by a pair of large hands.

Jiang Shiyue tried to grab Zhou Liwan, but was quickly entangled by the other men in black.

He hadn't expected this to happen, so he didn't bring a gun or any offensive weapons and could only rely on his own fists for a hand-to-hand combat.

"Wanwan!" Jiang Shiyue watched as Zhou Liwan struggled to be dragged into a room by men in black, and the door slammed shut.

His eyes widened in fury, and he rushed towards that direction with bloodshot eyes.
