After multiple unsuccessful attempts, Lin Jie reluctantly sought the assistance of the formidable force behind Water Buffalo and finally resolved the visibility issue for the underwater surgery.
Water Buffalo provided Lin Jie with a set of underwater high-definition imaging equipment.
This equipment integrates various imaging methods, such as conventional photography, infrared imaging, microwave imaging, long-wave imaging, and thermal imaging. After computer processing, it can clearly present real-time images within a five-meter range in murky water.
After testing, Lin Jie was quite satisfied with the clarity of the imaging.
With this problem solved, Lin Jie breathed a sigh of relief, feeling more confident about the cranial separation surgery.
The only downside was that Water Buffalo made it clear that the equipment was loaned to Lin Jie and had to be returned after use.
This made Lin Jie grumble about how stingy they were...
Sunday morning, at Xiangtai Apartment, nearing nine o'clock.
The freshly dressed Lin Miao came into the living room, grabbed Lin Jie's hand, and exclaimed, "Brother, I'm ready. I'll go with you to try on your groom's suit!"
Seeing the excited Lin Miao, Lin Jie asked, "Were the dresses Kexin tried on yesterday beautiful?"
Lin Miao nodded vigorously and said, "Beautiful. Kexin looked stunning in them, even better than the models on the brochure. On that day, Kexin will surely be the most beautiful bride."
"Since they were so beautiful, why didn't you take some photos yesterday?" Lin Jie chided a bit.
"Brother, I know your little scheme."
Lin Miao made a face at Lin Jie and said, "Kexin specifically said that you can only see the bride in her wedding dress on the day of the wedding."
Lin Jie snorted, stood up from the sofa, and pressed his hand on Lin Miao's head, "It's only fair. Remember, you are not allowed to take photos of me trying on the groom's suit and show them to anyone."
Lin Miao shook her head free of Lin Jie's grasp and replied defiantly, "I've only heard that it's bad luck to see the bride in her dress before the wedding, but not about the groom in his suit!"
"This is serious gender inequality..."
Lin Jie mumbled half a sentence but was interrupted by the sudden ringing of his phone.
It was a call from Huo Guangheng.
He picked it up, and a somewhat unfamiliar voice came through, "Hello, Expert Lin, I'm Lulu."
"I apologize for using Dr. Huo's phone to contact you. I suddenly remembered some things and would like to talk to you privately!"
Lin Jie found it a bit strange and asked, "Are you feeling unwell?"
"No, it's about the accident that led to my coma. I have recalled some images."
This immediately aroused Lin Jie's interest.
Could it be that it wasn't an accident?
However, Lin Jie quickly calmed himself, took a deep breath, and suppressed his curiosity.
As far as he knew, this Lulu was at least a billionaire heiress, without parents, and such money was enough to tempt people into risky actions.
It was better to stay away from such matters.
Having made up his mind, Lin Jie said, "Lulu, I am a doctor, just a doctor."
"If it's about illness or something health-related, you can talk to me. If it's about anything else, I suggest you contact the relevant departments."
The phone was silent for a moment, and just as Lin Jie was about to hang up, Lulu's voice came again, "Expert Lin, I've been in a coma for almost three years. I don't know who around me I can trust."
"But I know that you can absolutely be trusted."
"The moment I saw you, I knew you were a good person…"
Lin Jie rolled his eyes, thinking, are you trying to coax me like a child?
He replied, displeased, "Lulu, you don't need to flatter me. Other than medical issues, I'm powerless..."
"You can, Expert Lin, you can help me."
Lulu pleaded urgently, "As a renowned doctor, your network must be quite extensive. I just ask you to recommend a trustworthy detective to secretly investigate."
Upon hearing this simple request, Lin Jie thought for a moment and felt it was a minor issue, alongside his burgeoning curiosity.
"Hmm… I could introduce someone."
Lin Jie reminded, "However, he is a Binhai police officer. I don't know if he can handle your case. Also, whether he takes on your investigation will depend on what you provide..."
After discussing a few details, Lin Jie hung up and dialed Kong Mingqing's number.
After Lin Jie briefly explained, Kong Mingqing responded hesitantly, "Lin Jie, I'm not shirking, but this incident took place in the Capital City. I can't conduct a cross-regional investigation."
"Moreover, it happened three years ago; all evidence should be gone."
Lin Jie softly said, "Brother Kong, this patient just awoke from a vegetative state a few days ago."
"In a vegetative state, a person's brain can still be active, perhaps dreaming. The images the patient recalled might be dreams during her coma."
"Regardless, Brother Kong, you should at least talk to her, from your professional perspective, to determine if what she describes to you is her dream, imagination, or a real event."
"If it does turn out to be real, even if you can't take the case, you could give her some advice."
Lin Jie then thought of another point and said, "Currently, the patient is still in Binhai."
"If the incident she's pointing to is quite serious, perhaps the culprit knows she's awake, tracks her down here, and attempts another move."
Maybe Lin Jie's words made Kong Mingqing realize, and he replied immediately, "Lin Jie, you make a good point. If it's indeed a major case, the other party might really try again."
"I'll head over right now to the hospital to speak with that patient."
Lin Jie reminded again, "Remember to wear plain clothes when you go. Contact my student Huo Guangheng at the hospital first..."
After hanging up, Lin Jie noticed Lin Miao's eyes darting around and warned, "Miaomiao, this matter can be significant or trivial. If it's serious, it might involve a criminal case. You better not mention it to others."
"I know, I know, I'm not someone who would blurt things out."
After saying this, Lin Miao pulled Lin Jie's hand, and they started walking out, "Brother, let's head to Jiaojiao Studio now..."
Perhaps today isn't a good day to try on wedding attire.
The Lin siblings had just reached the underground parking lot when they received an emergency call from the University Affiliated Hospital.
"Expert Lin, there is a violent attack incident at the hospital, and your student He Yimin is severely injured..."
