Follow-up work naturally takes place at the police station, while Liu Banxia and the others join Shen Xinhao to enjoy so water-boiled fish.
The restaurant is indeed not very large, but it wins with its neatness and cleanliness.
"Captain Shen, why didn’t you call ahead, we could have prepared for your visit," a middle-aged woman greeted them.
"We were just passing by, and my friends were craving this taste. I thought there’s nothing more to say, our water-boiled fish really has the most authentic flavor," Shen Xinhao said with a smile.
"Of course, our ingredients must be genuine. What other dishes would you like? The pork elbow we made yesterday was quite good, I’ll slice so for you later. And take so back for Bo, he loves our pork elbow," the woman said with a smile.
"Let’s have a plate of that, do you have beef in soy sauce? I’ll take a plate of that too. Braised at chunks, dry-fried intestines, fried peanuts, vinegared jellyfish, and a plate of razor clams, spicy fried clams, and then..."
"Why order so much? You won’t be able to finish it," the woman interrupted as Shen Xinhao continued to order.
"Beef in soy sauce, pork elbow slices, braised at, vinegared jellyfish, I’ll give you razor clams and spicy fried clams, and I’ll add an egg drop soup for you. Don’t argue with , I have the final word."
After saying that, the woman went inside to prepare the dishes.
"Hey... I recognized the road and knew we’re coming here," Officer Xu sighed.
"Seems like there’s so history here?" Liu Banxia asked.
"We joined at the sa ti; he sacrificed himself while capturing a suspect in 2009. This place more or less beca our base, though the woman doesn’t let us co too often," Shen Xinhao explained.
"Captain Shen, didn’t consider letting Bo train at the police station first?" Officer Xu inquired.
"I’m letting him get comfortable with the rhythm of the criminal police team for now," Shen Xinhao said.
"Um... is Bo also from this family?" Xu Yino asked curiously.
Officer Xu shook his head, "No relation, but I wish their family had an offspring. The shock from the news was too great, they lost the baby."
"Bo joined the city bureau just last year; he interned at our station back then. The kid is really enthusiastic, I’m worried Captain Shen might push him too hard and exhaust him."
"No, I know what I’m doing. I’m currently training him to stake out, and he really is spirited. If he can manage to settle his temperant, he’d be quite a talent," Shen Xinhao said.
At this point, the woman ca out with the dishes, surprising Liu Banxia with the quantity. It wasn’t clear whether this was the normal portion or extra.
At this rate, honestly, one serving of water-boiled fish along with a couple of dishes would suffice for five of them.
Gotta admit, Liu Banxia was extrely satisfied with this al.
The water-boiled fish tasted far better than when he made it himself, and both the pork elbow and beef in soy sauce were exceptionally flavorful.
"Captain Shen, you weren’t fair, not ntioning this great taste ahead of ti," Liu Banxia comnted.
"Thought you were used to Jinbao’s als," Shen Xinhao teased.
"You’ll cover this al, I’m taking so to go, and I’ll pay for that myself," Liu Banxia said.
"Why be polite with ? You helped a lot in that big case last ti," Shen Xinhao quickly replied.
"Business is business, I’m taking so for my mom and wife. Madam, how much pork elbow and beef in soy sauce do you have left?" Liu Banxia inquired.
"Little brother, there’s plenty, want so to take away?" the woman asked with a smile.
"Can I take a look?" Liu Banxia asked.
"You can look, but they haven’t been sliced yet; they’re in the fresh cooler," the woman replied.
Liu Banxia didn’t say anything, he headed to the cooler, finding three pork elbows and quite a few chunks of beef in soy sauce.
"Alright, package a whole pork elbow separately, slice the rest. The big chunk of beef in soy sauce should be packed separately too, slice the rest, I’ll take it all," Liu Banxia said decisively.
"Really, take it all? Captain Shen, what now?" the woman looked a bit flustered.
"Director Liu, what’s going on?" Shen Xinhao was also a bit helpless.
"I’ll take the extra to the ergency center group; otherwise, if they find out we enjoyed such a nice al, they’ll make a fuss," Liu Banxia said.
"Madam, slice the at thin, otherwise I’m afraid it won’t be enough, each person needing two or three slices each is actually still a bit short."
"Hehe, later I’ll carry the beef in soy sauce, and Qingqing can carry the pork elbow slices," Xu Yino said with a playful smile.
"If it doesn’t affect your sales, then please slice them," Shen Xinhao said, feeling helpless.
He knows Liu Banxia isn’t stingy, and realizes he’s using this gesture to express his sentints.
Jinbao’s chefs are plenty talented; it’s not like they can’t make whatever kind of beef in soy sauce or pork elbow you want, even if sliced into dishes for sale, they’re worth quite a bit.
"I think when we go back, I’ll manage to get a couple slices myself," Liu Yiqing remarked.
"Also pack so dipping sauce in small bags, otherwise if they ask Manager Zhou for sauce, he’d be upset," Liu Banxia said seriously.
Both Liu Yiqing and Xu Yino couldn’t stop laughing, probably because of their relationship with Liu Banxia, and they are also quite familiar with Manager Zhou.
"Director Liu, no need for formalities." Shen Xinhao said after coming out of the store.
"Nothing to be formal about, we had quite a feast this noon. It’s just a bit far from our hospital, otherwise, we could co over for spicy boiled fish now and then." Liu Banxia said with a smile.
"Alright, you guys have your work to do. We need to rush back to the hospital to bribe those people who have worked, let’s go, we’ll keep in touch by phone if there’s anything."
Shen Xinhao nodded, truly thinking that Liu Banxia is a really nice person.
It’s not about how much the store will earn from this purchase by Liu Banxia, it’s the thought that counts.
The two girls were sitting in the back seat, Liu Yiqing carefully glanced forward, then sneakily grabbed a piece of braised beef and stuffed it into her mouth.
"If you like it, you can stealthily keep half a box." Liu Banxia suddenly said.
"Uh... Teacher Liu, how did you know I was sneaking a bite? I didn’t see you looking at the rearview mirror." Liu Yiqing asked, feeling a bit frustrated.
"Do I really need to look? I can tell by the sound." Xu Yino said, a bit speechless.
Since she was already caught, Liu Yiqing decided to just go with it. The braised beef was really delicious, the more she ate, the more flavorful it beca.
"Teacher Liu, can that female patient get a successful divorce without being harassed by the other party?" Xu Yino asked.
"As long as she’s determined, she definitely can get a divorce. Harassnt is not an issue either, Captain Shen didn’t explicitly say it, but he’ll surely assign soone to follow up, it works." Liu Banxia replied.
"Hehe, I wasn’t wrong to say that, Teacher Liu knows people, it’s really effective." Xu Yino said with a little pride.
At this mont, Liu Banxia’s phone rang again, seeing it was from the hospital, he turned on the speaker, "I’m on my way back to the hospital, should be there in about twenty minutes."
"Alright, can you hurry up a bit, we just admitted three car accident patients, two of them need to go to surgery." Qi Wentai’s voice ca through.
"OK, get prepared, I’ll start as soon as I get back, leave soone familiar with the case to brief ." Liu Banxia said.
"Got it." Qi Wentai said and then hung up the call.
"We need to pick up the pace, you two won’t likely get to the operating room this ti because you were too focused on food. Even if you get in, it’ll just be for the show." Liu Banxia said.
"It doesn’t matter, there are a lot of surgeries in our trauma center anyway. Actually, I’ve been quite restrained, otherwise, I would hang around the operating room every day." Xu Yino said.
"You need to strengthen your skills, master everything with emphasis." Liu Banxia replied.
"There’s a NOSES surgery the day after tomorrow, you should both review the materials these two days. Later, I’ll ntion this to a few others, so everyone is more prepared and can gain more insight while watching."
"Oh my, Teacher Liu, is there really going to be a NOSES surgery?" Liu Yiqing perked up.
"Yes, we’ve been busy today, so I haven’t told you yet. I need to return to the surgery now, help distribute the at to everyone, save a premium cut for the director." Liu Banxia said.
"Don’t worry, I already instructed them to set it aside while slicing. I even got the phone number of the lady, so we can have it delivered whenever we’re craving." Xu Yino said.
"You guys complain about other chores, but you have no complaints when it cos to food." Liu Banxia teased.
"Make sure to monitor that patient’s blood pressure. He’s the father of Qiaoqiao’s friend, we need to be thoroughly prepared, otherwise, if I have to kneel on a washboard at ho, I’ll have you kneel on durian."
Xu Yino blinked and winked at Liu Yiqing.
"Teacher Liu, are you inviting us to eat durian? It’s so expensive now, I can’t bear to buy it." Liu Yiqing said.
"How could you bring that to the hospital? The sll would surely cause a ruckus among patients." Liu Banxia said with a bitter smile.
"If you want to eat, co over to my place during your break. Qiaoqiao often buys so. Tang Dou dislikes it, but her four kids love it, they keep sneaking bites."
This is what you get for taking advantage, but the performance of these two girls today was indeed impressive. It doesn’t matter what ans they used, at least they got the job done.
Achievents must be rewarded, so he took them out for a al. Being fond of durian isn’t an issue, it just can’t be rewarded right now. The aroma is truly unique.
So people love it to death, so hate it to the core.
Anyway, he’s not really fond of it, he just watches Qiaoqiao flaunt it each ti.
The journey was fairly smooth, there wasn’t much traffic, and Liu Banxia returned to the trauma center in sixteen minutes.
"Operating room number four, the patient is three years old, with a ruptured spleen and liver bleeding." Qi Wentai quickly explained.
"Liaise with , who’s on the table?" Liu Banxia hurried to ask.
"The director’s intention is to assist in hemostasis, but you’ll have to handle the work afterwards," Qi Wentai said.
Liu Banxia nodded, his expression becoming much more solemn.
Performing surgery on such a young child naturally cos with a lot of pressure. Even though he had been anticipating pediatric surgery training, he hadn’t expected to face one today.
