Chapter 040: A Plan Comes to Mind

"It's nothing," Lin Yi smiled very easily, "I don't like anesthetics; they have side effects."

The chief surgeon was taken aback for a moment, then nodded. Since Lin Yi insisted on this, he could only comply. This kind of surgery posed no threat to life, so he wouldn't force the issue.

"Kid, you have to bear it!" After the chief surgeon spoke, he instructed the nurse to prepare to start the surgery.

Lin Yi wasn't afraid of pain, but that didn't mean he didn't feel it. However, this level of pain was within his tolerance. Back then, falling from the top of Xishan Mountain was much more painful, with all his internal organs displaced...

"Kid, how did you get injured?" Dr. Sun Weimin, the chief surgeon, was an experienced and skilled surgeon. He was also good at reading people. Although Lin Yi had a gunshot wound, he didn't seem like a criminal suspect sent by the police. So, Dr. Sun Weimin took the initiative to chat with him to distract his attention and reduce his pain.

"At the bank, I was hit by a robber," Lin Yi understood Dr. Sun Weimin's intention. Actually, Lin Yi's attention wasn't so easily distracted. He had been trained to remain vigilant in any situation and not to let his guard down.

"Is that so?" Dr. Sun Weimin listened and indeed found it as he had guessed. This young man wasn't a criminal suspect but a victim. So, he spoke more freely, "The situation must have been very tense, right?"

"It was okay," Lin Yi smiled, "Actually, I could have dodged it, but there was a girl behind me. If I had dodged, she would have been in trouble. So, I had to take the bullet. Am I a bit foolish?"

Lin Yi had seen similar news reports in the mountains before. People who did good deeds were often called fools, while those who were cold and selfish were considered smart. So, when he said this, Lin Yi was somewhat self-deprecating.

"Ah?" Dr. Sun Weimin, upon hearing this, was instantly filled with admiration for the young man, "Kid, you're really great! This isn't foolish; it's heroic! How about it, did that girl fall in love with you at first sight?"

"Then I was taken as a hostage by the robber. Who knows what she thought?" Lin Yi smiled bitterly, "At that time, she probably didn't think I was protecting her, since the robber was aiming at me."

"That's already very good! Kid, you know how to sacrifice yourself for others!" Dr. Sun Weimin admired Lin Yi, "What's your name?"

"Lin Yi, it's on the medical record," Lin Yi smiled.

"Hehe, sorry, I see too many patients every day and rarely pay attention to these details," Dr. Sun Weimin said a bit embarrassedly.

The surgery went smoothly. Lin Yi didn't shout or move his leg, so Dr. Sun Weimin completed the small surgery very quickly. Lin Yi's reaction surprised him. Without any anesthetics, Lin Yi was so cooperative and persistent. This young man's willpower was truly remarkable!

After the surgery, Song Lingshan came to the ward to take Lin Yi's statement and met the chief surgeon, Dr. Sun Weimin. Dr. Sun Weimin naturally praised Lin Yi highly, "Officer Song, this young man is truly remarkable, sacrificing himself for others. He should be a role model for society! You should give him an award for bravery!"

"What do you mean?" Although Song Lingshan admired Lin Yi's calmness in the face of the robber, she didn't think it was a case of self-sacrifice. Chu Mengyao's statement didn't go into much detail about Lin Yi blocking the bullet in the bank, only mentioning that Lin Yi was shot by the robber. So, Song Lingshan didn't know the full story.

"Oh? You didn't know? At the time, Lin Yi could have dodged the robber's bullet, but he saw a girl behind him. If he had dodged, the girl would have been in trouble, so he took the bullet!" Dr. Sun Weimin praised him highly, "I've never met a young man with such a sense of justice and compassion!"

Song Lingshan frowned, "Is that true? It sounds like a story. Besides, can you really dodge a bullet just because you want to? I'm a former special forces instructor and can't guarantee I could dodge a bullet. Is Lin Yi better than me?" Song Lingshan couldn't believe it, "Dr. Sun, who told you this?"

"It was Lin Yi himself who told me," Dr. Sun Weimin said.

"He told you himself?" Song Lingshan was taken aback. If he said it himself, can you believe it? He's just trying to fool you. I could say I can punch an elephant to death, and would anyone believe it?

Dr. Sun Weimin noticed Song Lingshan's skepticism and smiled, "This young man didn't even need anesthetics to remove the bullet and didn't even complain about the pain. Just based on his resilience, I believe what he said."

Dr. Sun Weimin had many other things to attend to, so he couldn't chat with Song Lingshan for long. After a few words, he left. Song Lingshan then pushed the door open and entered Lin Yi's ward.

Lin Yi had wanted to leave immediately, but that would have been too shocking. Since his injury was in his leg, not his arm, he pretended to lie on the bed.

"Lin Yi, can we take your statement now?" For some reason, seeing Lin Yi lying on the bed with his leg propped up, Song Lingshan felt he deserved a beating.

"Sure," Lin Yi lay on the bed, looking up at Song Lingshan. He noticed that her chest was particularly large, comparable to the AV actress he had seen that morning. Moreover, upon closer inspection, Song Lingshan was quite beautiful. Hmm... uniform allure...

Perhaps sensing that Lin Yi's gaze was a bit off, Song Lingshan instinctively followed his gaze and blushed.

Due to long-term intense training, Song Lingshan's chest had developed exceptionally well, even to the point of being a burden. Without a bra, it would bounce as she walked, making her feel very inconvenient. She even considered getting liposuction, but thought it would be too embarrassing, so she gave up.

In the special forces, the strict discipline meant no one paid attention to Song Lingshan's chest, so she didn't care much. But after joining the police force, she often had to wear plain clothes for missions and enter mixed environments, which made her feel uncomfortable. Some men would look at her with lecherous eyes, and Song Lingshan really wanted to kick them.

But what Song Lingshan didn't expect was that even in her uniform, Lin Yi would dare to stare at her like that, which was unforgivable! Song Lingshan coldly snorted and sat on the chair beside Lin Yi's bed, thinking about how to give this guy a small punishment...

Suddenly, she thought of his leg injury, and a plan came to mind...
