I Became a Medical Genius in the 80s

Chapter 1028: Chapter 1027: Do You Have an Appointment?

After Luo Yirui finished shooting, he put down the gun. It wasn’t as thrilling as he imagined; the feeling of not meeting his expectations left him a bit disappointed.

”Let’s go,” Luo Yirui said to Hao Rong.

Hao Rong looked at the target paper and opened his mouth, even though Luo Yirui was shooting randomly, his skill was actually higher because every shot was on target!

He was a bit pained, thinking that if Luo Yirui aimed properly, he might shoot really well and let Zhuo Hao, that short guy, see properly!

But seeing Luo Yirui’s disinterested back, he ultimately did not call out to him and followed with small steps.

With Zhuo Hao here, he couldn’t settle down and practice shooting peacefully, so it’s better to play elsewhere.

All of this was seen by a few people in the surveillance room, one of whom was cracking sunflower seeds while watching the screen intently at the target paper that flashed by just now.

”Rewind, rewind... stop!” The person holding half-cracked sunflower seeds pointed at the screen and said to the person beside them, ”Does this look like a smiley face to you?”

Everyone looked and indeed found that the target paper looked very much like a smiley face, although it was only a resemblance.

”Just a coincidence, Brother Chen, you’re making a fuss over nothing. I was just wondering what you were rewinding to see, and it’s just this?”

Brother Chen gave the speaker a smack on the head and said grumpily, ”You won’t admit you’re blind; this is clearly a smiley face!”

The rest of the group looked at him with strange expressions; this was just random shooting by the kid, how could it be a smiley face? Even if it is, it must be a coincidence.

Brother Chen sneered, rolled his eyes, thinking they were just rookies, ”Get someone to bring over that target paper.”

The person who got smacked made a call, and soon, the target paper was brought over. Such things usually have no use, and it was unclear why the surveillance room people wanted it.

Brother Chen took the target paper and spread it on the table; without the rings and colors to distract, a clear, tidy smiley face immediately emerged.

If looking from the front it could be said to be a coincidence, but looking at the back, no one could say it’s a coincidence because the smiley face is just so tidy!

The group of men looked at each other, and after a while, one scratched his head and said, ”If I hadn’t seen it with my own eyes, I’d have thought they got the wrong target paper!”

Brother Chen also smiled wryly, ”I never expected such a young kid to have such good shooting skills, this control ability, even as a veteran, I’m impressed.”

Luo Yirui, of course, knew how his shooting skills were; among this group of kids, he was probably the top one, but to his dad and his men, he was a rookie, not even at the entry level.

After handling a real gun, it wasn’t nearly as perfect as he imagined; actually, Luo Yirui was a bit disappointed, feeling that something was missing, though he couldn’t pinpoint it.

Jing Changle had an interest in guns but never really handled one, so he wouldn’t get addicted. Seeing Luo Yirui about to leave, he didn’t want to stay behind either, and he followed suit.

Hao Rong trailed behind the two with his head down, still brooding over losing to Zhuo Hao. How could he lose to that short guy!

Losing interest, Luo Yirui decided to go back to the Hao Family. Instead of wasting time here, it was better to go back and keep an eye on Hao Meili.

At this time, Zhang Xiaodong arrived at the Heavenly Blessing Hotel, with two large streets separating him from the hotel, like a chasm.

He looked at the Heavenly Blessing across the street, wanting to turn and leave several times, but stopped when he thought of his current situation.

The external pressure was almost bending his spine, and the pressure at home was also significant, especially since everyone in the family lost their jobs because of him. His parents were understanding, but his in-laws were bound to be scolding him.

His wife was now giving him the cold shoulder, harboring complaints against him.

He now preferred wandering outside to going home; besides not wanting to see their cold faces, he felt he owed them a lot, without a valid reason to offer.

They all thought he made the wrong decision at that time.

Whenever he thought of this, he couldn’t help but think of Luo Yirui, the one boy who believed he was in the right. The seriousness on his face when he said that sentence was clear in Zhang Xiaodong’s memory.

He took a deep breath; having come to this point, what was so daunting about entering a hotel? At worst, they’d kick him out, but he must try, for there is always the possibility of success.

The hope Zhang Xiaodong held leaned to less than a tenth; he came here to verify whether Tian Zhi existed.

Crossing the ’chasm’, Zhang Xiaodong stood at the entrance of the Heavenly Blessing Hotel. Inside, a small plaza with a fountain atop a circular staircase greeted him.

Surrounding this fountain were sculptures of the twelve zodiac animals, placed irregularly with diverse postures, giving a simple yet tasteful appearance.

As he walked inside, the guard at the entrance kept an eye on him but did not stop him, for this was, after all, a hotel.

Zhang Xiaodong looked ahead as he walked, a bit apprehensive. Dressed in faded jeans, an old shirt, and worn-out but trendy sneakers which looked secondhand and appeared to be a no-name brand.

Such attire immediately attracted much attention at the Heavenly Blessing’s small plaza.

Often, pressure is given by the environment or people around you.

Zhang Xiaodong couldn’t completely ignore such glances, but being an adult, he understood patience and wouldn’t immaturely turn around and leave due to them.

He followed the driveway’s slope to the Heavenly Blessing Hotel’s main entrance, where he was stopped by a security guard.

”Sir, please show your work ID,” the guard said calmly, mistaking him for a repairman.

Zhang Xiaodong replied expressionlessly, ”I’m not a staff member, I’m here to find someone.”

The guard frowned slightly, ”Who are you looking for?”

Generally, the answer would be a no because those residing here were wealthy or influential, and someone dressed like that was likely from the lower levels, seeking trouble by finding people.

”I’m looking for Tian Zhi,” Zhang Xiaodong said.

The guard was about to say no, but upon hearing ’Tian Zhi’, his expression turned serious.

Only a few special people existed in the hotel, and Tian Zhi was one of them!

He thought for a moment and said to Zhang Xiaodong, ”Follow me.”

Zhang Xiaodong was overjoyed; it seemed there really was someone by that name.

The guard led Zhang Xiaodong to the front desk. Since he was just a guard, it was better to leave these matters to the reception.

The receptionist politely inquired about Zhang Xiaodong’s purpose, to which Zhang Xiaodong once again explained his intention.

”If you’re looking for Mr. Tian, do you have a reservation?”
