Reborn in 1993, Dark Sea

"Boss, what do you want?" Wang Bulai asked, his voice tinged with trepidation.

Last night, Wang Bulai received a call from An Xiaohai, asking him to come to his ward this morning. An Xiaohai repeatedly emphasized that he should come alone and not let anyone know.

Wang Bulai came as An Xiaohai had requested, but after entering An Xiaohai's ward, An Xiaohai kept his head down in deep thought and didn't say a word.

"Oh, sorry, I was a little distracted."

"It's alright, ha!" Wang Bulai breathed a huge sigh of relief. He had thought he had made a mistake, but it seemed that wasn't the case.

"Ah Lai, I'd like to ask you for a favor."

"Brother, please don't say that. What do you want me to do? It's just a matter of saying the word. I'll do anything."

"You absolutely cannot tell anyone about this, including Ali and the others, otherwise you will be in great danger, and it may even endanger your family. Think carefully."

"No need to think, I'll do it!" Wang Bulai said solemnly without any hesitation.

An Xiaohai smiled slightly: "Don't be so nervous. As long as you don't tell anyone, there should be no danger."

Here's the thing, I need you to do two things for me: First, after we open internet cafes in all districts, you need to lead an event where people who come to use the internet on their birthdays can do so for free.

To make a big splash, it's best to treat it as a long-term promotional campaign, and even go so far as to advertise on TV and in newspapers.

People who come to the internet cafe on their birthday need to register their ID cards, and then you need to find a way to record everyone whose birthday is February 18, 1974.

"Brother, wait a minute, I need to write down this date..." Wang Bulai got up to find paper and pen.

"It cannot be written down on paper, but only in the heart."

I've said it before, we can't let anyone find out, including Ali and Shedan. If word gets out, you, me, and our families will be in great danger.

I'm not kidding you, understand?

"Got it!"

"This is the first thing."

The second thing: You need to find a doctor who worked at Dapeng Town People's Hospital before 1975. This doctor must have worked at Dapeng Town People's Hospital between 1974 and 1975.

Just like the first thing, this matter must not be known to anyone, otherwise the consequences will be just as severe, understand?

…Ah Lai, what are you daydreaming about?

"I know, boss. I understand who you're investigating. I was just thinking about the doctor who worked at Dapeng Town People's Hospital during that period. I think we know one of them."

"Who?"

"Dr. Yu. Boss, do you remember that little clinic? Last time I was injured, you rescued me and took me to Dr. Yu for treatment."

"Are you sure? Are you sure he worked at Dapeng Town People's Hospital during that period?"

"I'm pretty sure Dr. Yu is connected to Dapeng Town People's Hospital, but I can't be sure exactly when he worked there."

Why do you say that?

"I remember once, Dr. Yu had a few drinks and was a little drunk. He told us that he used to be the chief surgeon at Dapeng Town People's Hospital."

We all said he was bragging, so he pulled out a notebook with "Dapeng Town People's Hospital" printed on it. But we still didn't believe him, and he even got angry.

"Are you sure you're not mistaken? Are you sure it's Dapeng Town People's Hospital?"

"Absolutely not. Ali's grandmother used to be from Dapeng Town. I couldn't possibly be mistaken."

"Was Ali's grandmother from Dapeng Town?"

"Yes, Ali came here because no one took care of her after she was born."

"Good, very good! What is Dr. Yu's full name?"

"What was his name again?... I think he mentioned it..." Wang Bulai frowned and thought for a long time: "I think it was Yu something Jiang? I can't remember clearly."

Everyone only knows him as Doctor Yu; very few people ask for his full name.

"Okay!" An Xiaohai nodded gently.

There are indeed suspicious things about this Dr. Yu. Wang Bulai and the others praised his medical skills so much, yet he was holed up in such a small clinic and even took on some illegal business. Thinking about it carefully, it does seem a bit illogical.

If Dr. Yu was indeed working at Dapeng Town People's Hospital during that period, then the mystery surrounding him would be even greater.

"Ah Lai, find a way to investigate this Doctor Yu's background."

"Like I said, you must keep this a secret. Be extremely careful. Never let anyone know what you're doing, and especially don't let Dr. Yu find out you're investigating him."

"I understand, boss. I'll be extra careful. Is there anything else?"

"That's all. For now, there are only these two things. You must not be impatient. It's better to find nothing at all than to reveal your purpose."

If you encounter any obstacles, don't rush to solve them. Stay put and wait for me to return.

"I see."

"Did you remember the date?"

"I remember the date: February 18, 1974; the location: Dapeng Town People's Hospital."

"By the way, it's not just Dapeng Town People's Hospital. Try to ask the local elders if there were any other hospitals within a 20-kilometer radius of Dapeng Town People's Hospital that could deliver babies in 1974, or if there were any famous midwives."

If a midwife dies in 74, extra caution is needed.

"I understand. Brother wants to find someone born on February 18, 1974, in or near Dapeng Town People's Hospital. Anyone who knows about this would also be helpful, right?"

"Very good, you understand very accurately."

I can give you some more information. I'm not looking for this person's birth details, but rather, through these people, I want to find the person behind them.

And the other person behind all this is extremely, extremely, extremely dangerous. Once he realizes we're looking for him, we might not even know how we died, understand?

"I understand... but is this person even better than you, boss?"

Do you think I'm very capable?

"Of course, boss, you're the most amazing person I've ever met!"

"Then let me tell you very clearly, he is more powerful than me, much more powerful! Even if we add Buddha Zitian, we still can't beat him. If he doesn't know we're investigating him, then nothing will happen. But once he finds out, then we'll be in trouble."

"Okay, boss, don't worry, I understand. I'll be extra careful."

"Alright, I'll leave this to you. Just keep it in mind, but don't try to find out anything. Only in this way can we ensure everyone's safety."

"Okay, I got it. Is there anything else, boss?"

"That's all... By the way, are everything prepared for tomorrow?"

"It's almost done. Alibaba is handling it. I called them before I came, and they said it was almost done."

"Boss, are you really going to be discharged tomorrow? I think your injuries are still quite serious, and we all feel you should stay in the hospital a little longer."

"Don't worry, it's not that serious," An Xiaohai smiled slightly. "This time I'm only taking Xie Dan with me. You and Ali shouldn't have any other ideas."

"Hehe, boss, we won't have any thoughts. We know Xie Dan too well. He just loves following you to do big things. We're all happy for him that you're willing to keep him by your side."

Ali needs to take care of his grandmother. If you take Ali to another place, he'll just worry.

"And what about you? What are your thoughts?"

"I have no other thoughts. I came out into this world because I didn't want to be looked down upon, and I didn't want to be laughed at for being short. Now I've achieved that, and I'm very satisfied."

"That's good! Keep up the good work, and you'll achieve even greater things in the future. But I also want to remind you: don't care too much about what others think, and definitely don't live in the shadow of what others think."

This world exists because of you; when you close your eyes, this world ceases to exist.

The next day, just as dawn was breaking, a small group of people had already gathered at the entrance of Shenhai People's Hospital.

They were all young people, and they looked fierce, but they were all well-behaved. They didn't make a lot of noise or block the road; they just stood on both sides of the sidewalk, as if they were waiting for something.

As time went on, the crowd grew larger and larger, and by 10:00 a.m., the waiting crowd almost filled the entire street.

"Qi Zai, hurry up! I told you to wake me up, but you completely forgot! I'm so fed up with you!" Old Liu, who sells lamb skewers, said angrily as he jogged over.

"Sixth Brother, what are we doing here so early in the morning?..." Qi Zai asked breathlessly.

"Pick up Hai Ge from the hospital."

"Brother Hai...is that the Brother Hai who led us to chop up the Hong Kong thugs?"

"Yes, that's him."

"Oh my god! Why didn't you say so sooner?! If you had told me you were here to pick up Hai-ge, I would have gotten up much earlier! Honestly!"

"How dare you say that to me! I'm... I'm really late, what's the point of watching this now!" Old Liu said, slapping his forehead.

Qi Zai looked ahead and gasped! The entrance to the People's Hospital was already packed with people, and there wasn't even a place to stand.
