Chapter 3

A year ago

"Xiao Zhou, It's your first day at the hospital as a full time doctor, how was the experience", Xiao Zhou's teacher who seems to be of 40 year old asked.

"Teacher, I did my intern here and joined here immediately so it's okay. I'm already used to the environment. All Thanks to teachers care", Xiao Zhou smiled.

"Little flatterer..", his teacher smiled and looked for a document in his desk but suddenly the expression in his face changed turned grave.

"Teacher, what happened?", Xiao Zhou was nervous.

"Little Zhou, come here, see if you could find a report marked confidential on this table", his teacher said with seriousness.

Even after searching for next 20 mins, it turned out to be useless. The confidential report regarding the new medicine for lung cancer treatment is gone!

His teacher was overwhelmed by the shock and immediately clutched his chest. Xiao Zhou's mind became a mess and he immediately assured his teacher that he will somehow find and bring the document back and immediately called for another doctor's help.

Truly the moment, where a doctor himself became a patient!

Xiao Zhou rushed out of the cabin and calculated in his mind. His teacher came back just then after going for regular rounds to the patient wards for 15 mins. And thus, the thief must have come in only at that 15 minutes. Today, one way of the alley to his teacher's cabin was closed because of the intense operation going on the other side, leaving the thief only one way to retreat! And that guy must've came in and left about 7-8 mins ago so that both when leaving for Ward check and returning, both him and his teacher didn't notice. The path this alley takes is a roundabout way to the entrance. So if he could block the entrance now, he would be able to catch the thief. The reports are extremely confidential and he needs to carry out this task in secret. But.. Will the thief take the main path to the exit? Will he be that dumb?

Suddenly, as if God has sent someone to help him, he saw a group of hooligans secretly mixed up with patients.

WHEN DID THE HOSPITAL BECAME A LAWLESS GANGSTER BATTLEFIELD!!! He could only cry on the inside and followed the hooligans in a hope they'll lead him to that person who stole the report.

In sometime, they reached the terrace! Terrace? what are they going to do in the terrace! Xiao Zhou was nervous as he was hiding and watch the scene unfold in front of him.

The thief suddenly came forward and said a few words to the hooligans' boss and in a matter of time they shook hands and immediately the thief gave the document to the boss!

what god sent! he's the thief!!!! Xiao Zhou cursed and suddenly made up his mind

He took a broken piece of wood in the side and threw it towards the boss and jumped in front of him making him the easy target for hooligans to surround.

"Who are you", the guy near the boss asked.

"Hand over the certificate and I will consider not calling the police!", Xiao Zhou said calmly as if the heart that's about to explode by nervousness simply doesn't belong to him.

The hooligans surrounding him laughed at him mockingly but strangely the boss was in a trance just looking at him through the mask that he's wearing.

"Police? Only if you could stay alive the next moment!!", one of them drew a gun from their pocket and shot at him.

Before he could think about dodging, a huge embrace suddenly covered him and the statue-like boss came alive and is actually protecting him?

And when Xiao Zhou looked up from the embrace, cold sweat covered his back, the guy who just now protected him, was bleeding, sure enough, he took the bullet for him!
