Chapter 66: Danielle's Death Hangs by a Thread (Seeking Follow-up)
With a lot of questions, Zhou Qiao and Luo Ya returned to San Francisco.
Luo Ya said: "I have eradicated the Blood Gang and taken over their territory and business, but in the underground world of San Francisco, there are still several forces, in addition to your Chinese gang, there is also a Cripple Gang, I want to form an alliance with the Hongmen and Huaqing Gang to deal with the Cripple Gang, I want you to be a recommendation, I don't know if you are willing?" ”
Zhou Qiao was stunned for a moment, and then said with a look of embarrassment: "I'm just a little doctor, although I know some peripheral members of Hongmen and Huaqing Gang, I'm afraid I really don't have such a big face, and I can't help you!" ”
After speaking, he was a little ashamed, Luo Ya rarely begged him, but now when he spoke, he couldn't help much, and he couldn't help but feel guilty.
However, he is really not familiar with the Chinese gang!
Loya laughed and said, "Do you have a misunderstanding? My 18th Street is now like the scorching sun at noon, and like a large population of lions in the prime of life on the African grassland, if you want to find someone to form an alliance, it is actually very simple, you only need a referrer, an excuse to contact, that's all, it really doesn't matter if you are familiar with it or not. ”
Luo Ya is also right, diplomacy relies on its own strength. is strong in itself, and with a random excuse, he expressed goodwill, and the other party immediately posted it in a funny way.
If you are not hard, no matter how prestigious the middleman is, it is useless.
In addition, even if there is no middleman, Luo Ya can contact the Chinese gang. It's just that he wants to earn some face for Zhou Qiao and improve his status in front of those Chinese bigwigs.
Zhou Qiao pondered for a moment and agreed.
To Zhou Qiao's surprise, he had just called Chairman Zhang, and not long after he said this, he received a reply from the other party!
And President Zhang is just an intermediary messenger!
Then, the two sides agreed on the time and place of the meeting.
The main hall of Hongmen in Chinatown.
Hongmen, Huaqing Gang, and several Chinese gang bosses came over in person to meet with Luo Ya to discuss cooperation.
In addition to dealing with the Cripple Gang, they have also shown their intention to cooperate in many businesses.
Tang Yunxuan's boss, President Zhang of the Wushu Association and others were also fortunate to witness this meeting. It's just that they didn't have to sit and stood in a relatively remote corner of the periphery.
Zhang Jianjun and Huang Xiaobing are not to mention, they don't even have a place to stand, they can only look at the courtyard outside, looking at it from a distance, and they can't even hear the sound of conversation inside.
The Chinese gang admired Zhou Qiao very much, and they didn't expect Dr. Zhou to travel so extensively, they had always wanted to contact the emerging gang of Eighteen Street, but they never knew where to start, but they didn't expect that Zhou Qiao would take the initiative to help them introduce them!
When the bigwigs saw that Zhou Qiao was quite close to Luo Ya, and walked in hand in hand, they were stunned, and they couldn't help but look at Zhou Qiao even more.
It's just that after Zhou Qiao sat for a while, he whispered to Luo Ya, and then made an excuse to slip away!
Because he felt that he was not suitable here. He is just a little doctor, and it is not very convenient to get involved in these things, Luo Ya and the bosses of the Chinese gang understand, so they don't force him!
After this night, the night in San Francisco was not quiet again, and every night there were firecrackers from time to time, not in small formations, but in the kind that set off 100,000 firecrackers at every turn, the kind with terrifying sound.
Elena and Ava were scared and shivering every night, and Zhou Qiao was so bold that he could sleep listening to the sound of firecrackers.
Mainly, during the New Year's holidays in China, this kind of firecrackers are fired in unison, and the momentum is much more powerful than here in San Francisco!
……
However, Luo Ya and they act very measuredly, and they never come out to do these things during the day, so it seems that the daytime in San Francisco still looks like singing and dancing, and it is estimated that the citizens and friends have long been used to it!
Here, as long as you don't go out at night, safety is still guaranteed.
During the day, there are also many police patrols, whether they are useful or not, at least they can reassure citizens and friends.
With the advent of autumn, the collision of cold and warm air currents, the temperature in San Francisco drops, and the number of patients who come to the Iris clinic for medical treatment due to minor problems such as colds and fevers is also increasing.
For most patients with cold and fever, Zhou Qiao does not arrange infusion, because of factors such as the pH value, osmotic pressure, endotoxin, concentration, placement time of the drug, and the infusion speed, intravenous infusion is more likely to have adverse reactions than other administration methods.
The unreasonable overuse of intravenous infusion not only cannot improve the treatment effect of patients, but also has many potential safety risks.
However, infusion must be considered for patients with a temperature of more than 38.5°C (101.3°F), a high fever that does not go away, or a severe lack of water leading to fluid electrolyte imbalances.
This is the case of a Chinese aunt, who has a high fever that does not go away, and strongly requests an infusion, so Zhou Qiao arranged it for her.
When it was lunch time, the aunt's infusion was only halfway through, and her husband was also a Chinese, very caring, and brought a thermos box to deliver the meal, which made Elena and Ava envious.
"Joe, when we go out to buy food at noon, let's go to the supermarket to buy supplies!" Elena quietly squeezed Zhou Qiao's hand and said.
Since the nights have not been very peaceful recently, they are afraid to go out at night, and they are too busy during the day, so the lunch and lunch break can be used to make good use of it.
"Wouldn't Ava be upset if she stayed in the clinic to look after her family?" Zhou Qiao said hesitantly.
Usually when I go out to buy food, it's Elena and Ava together.
"It's okay, she's not that stingy." Elena winked at her and said, "I'll go talk to her." ”
"Hmm."
Zhou Qiao was waiting for Elena at the door, and soon, Elena ran out happily, took Zhou Qiao's hand and walked out, looking a little impatient. Zhou Qiao's driver's license has never had time to get it, so it is still Elena who drives.
After getting into the car, before it started, Zhou Qiao looked at it, and there was no one near him, so he immediately hugged Elena in his arms, and Elena was shy.
Zhou Qiao: "......"
Something is wrong, how can Elena be shy? Usually more active and enthusiastic than yourself!
I couldn't wait just now, but I was wrong?
He was startled, and quickly grabbed Elena's left hand and took a closer look at her middle finger nail!
No nails, no chips!
I'll go, it's Ava, not Elena!
Zhou Qiao only felt dizzy in his head, why was it confused again? How many days without a mistake!
Ava smiled, glanced thoughtfully at the middle finger of her left hand, and said to herself, No wonder Joe was able to distinguish between me and my sister before, it turns out that the trick is here. Well, let's take a sneak peek back and see where the subtle differences are.
Zhou Qiao let go of Ava and retracted his other hand, he was really embarrassed to continue that, and he was quite uncomfortable sitting in the co-pilot.
"Coward." Ava muttered, she knew that Joe was afraid that her sister would be angry.
But don't think about whether I'm angry or not?
"Hmph." The blonde little beauty shrugged her shoulders, kicked the accelerator, and the car flew out, startling Zhou Qiao!
"Haha!" Ava's silver bell-like laughter was heard from inside the car.
……
Inside the clinic, Elena angrily stamps her foot as she is tricked by Ava.
When she went in to find Ava, Ava was about to change the medicine for the Chinese aunt, and as soon as she said, Ava didn't answer, but said that she was in a hurry to go to the toilet and asked Elena to help change the medicine.
Elena was naturally happy to help.
Then, when she was changing the dressing, she saw that Ava ran out with Zhou Qiao in tow!
Elena wanted to chase after her, but the Chinese aunt and uncle on the side urged her again, and she had no choice but to continue.
When she is done, appeases the Chinese aunt, and chases her out, where is Zhou Qiao and Ava?
"This little girl is getting naughtimore!"
"Forget it, I won't bother with you this time. Anyway, going to the supermarket to buy things is not an easy job, so it is better to take a break in the clinic and look at your phone! ”
Elena sat in a chair at the front desk, when suddenly, a tall, thin girl with chestnut hair and many small freckles on her face walked in with a straight face.
"Good afternoon, do you need any help?" Elena immediately stood up and asked with a smile on her face.
It was Murphy who came.
She glanced at the clinic and asked, "Is Dr. Zhou Qiao here?" ”
"Uh, he just went out. Are you feeling unwell and come to Dr. Chow? If I have made an appointment, will I be honored to know your name? Elena said.
Murphy glanced at Elena coldly, ignored her, and saw that there was a rest area on the right, so he walked straight over, sat down by the window, and then took out a thick medical book from his backpack and read it quietly.
Elena: "......"
She thought for a moment and asked, "Do you need something to drink?" Coffee? Black tea? ”
Murphy read to himself, not glancing at Elena out of the corner of his eye.
Elena had just been teased by Ava, and she was in a rather depressed mood, so she couldn't help pouting at this time, and ignored Murphy.
Elena thought secretly, I don't know what this strange girl is here for, and it doesn't look like she is coming to see a doctor, so let her wait here and wait for Zhou Qiao to come back.
After about ten minutes, Elena still brewed a cup of mellow Americano and served it.
Murphy smelled the refreshing fragrance and couldn't help but glance up at Elena, who smiled at her and said, "I don't know your taste, so I come according to my preference, you try!" ”
"Thank you." Murphy finally said stiffly, and then continued to read.
In the infusion room, the Chinese aunt was calling the nurse, and Elena turned around and walked quickly towards the infusion room, but she couldn't help but mutter, this is really a strange girl!
She felt a coldness in Murphy that was thousands of miles away.
In the infusion room, the aunt's medicine was transfused, and Elena was very skillful in helping her pull out the needle and advise her on some precautions.
At this moment, Cathy's extremely frightened and panicked voice came from outside.
