Chapter 211 Entrapment 2
Chapter 211 Entrapment 2
The acquisition plan for the pedestrian street is progressing exceptionally smoothly.
After Zhang Meng, the toughest obstacle, was removed, the remaining merchants signed the contracts with almost no resistance.
After all, the price Wang Minyu offered was far higher than they expected, and he also promised that those who wanted to stay could continue working in the newly built health center after training.
No one would refuse such a good deal that offers both money and a job.
The entire old street has been turned into a huge construction site.
The roar of bulldozers has replaced the shouts of the past.
Renxin Pharmacy has become the only "isolated island" still operating on the construction site.
Wang Minyu's life returned to its former tranquility.
In the morning, he sits in the clinic to see patients, and in the afternoon, he goes to the construction site to "supervise" the work, while also using the "Qi Observation Technique" to see which place has good feng shui for building a "Spirit Gathering Array".
Everything seemed to be thriving.
However, beneath the calm surface, undercurrents are already brewing.
That morning, a special "patient" walked into the pharmacy.
She was a woman, around thirty years old, wearing a well-tailored business suit, with a capable demeanor.
She didn't seem to be there for a medical consultation; she seemed more like she was there to acquire the pharmacy.
"Hello, I'm looking for Dr. Wang," the woman said. Her voice was pleasant, but her tone was completely flat, like an AI voice.
"That's me." Wang Minyu raised his eyelids slightly, gesturing for her to sit down.
In the field of vision of the [Aura Observation] technique, this woman's aura is very strange.
Her physical health was a flawless, pure white, as healthy as a newborn baby, without even a trace of the gray haze of sub-health.
But above her head, there was a very faint blue halo that flickered like a data stream.
That's not illness; it's more like... signal blocking.
Interesting. This is a master.
"Where do you feel unwell?" Wang Minyu asked routinely.
"I have insomnia," the woman said succinctly.
"How long has it been?"
Three years.
"Specific symptoms?"
"Difficulty falling asleep, vivid dreams, and waking up early. My deep sleep time each day is no more than forty minutes." The woman answered as if reciting a medical record, precise but devoid of emotion.
Wang Minyu held out his hand: "Wrist."
The woman placed her wrist on the pulse pillow.
Wang Minyu placed three fingers on it.
Close your eyes.
The newly unlocked skill, [Neural Interaction Protocol], has quietly been activated.
His fingertips seemed to transform into three highly precise probes, piercing through the skin and blood vessels, and directly connecting to the other person's nerve endings.
In an instant, a massive amount of fragmented information flooded into his mind.
It's not this woman's memory.
Instead, they are segments of... carefully crafted, fabricated "medical records".
"...The patient, codename 'Nightingale,' is a Senior Operations Specialist for Asia at Summit Biopharmaceutical Group. Mission objective: Approach Wang Minyu, assess his capabilities, and obtain his biological samples (blood, hair, etc.)..."
"...Falsified identity: Lin Wei, financial analyst. Falsified medical records: severe insomnia caused by chronic neurasthenia..."
"...Warning: The target possesses extremely high perception and counter-surveillance capabilities at an S+ level. Eavesdropping or recording with any electronic devices is strictly prohibited..."
Wang Min-yu's eyelids twitched slightly beneath his eyelids.
Peak Biology.
It's those persistent bastards again.
Those two cyborgs that Zhao Wuji created last time were their doing.
Now, they've sent an even higher-ranking agent.
Wang Minyu released his grip and opened his eyes.
"Miss Lin, you don't have insomnia." His tone remained calm.
The woman, Lin Wei, had a slight change in expression: "Dr. Wang, what do you mean by this? My diagnosis was written by a specialist from Peking Union Medical College Hospital."
"The expert's report can only show what the machine detected. But machines can lie." Wang Min-yu leaned back in his chair, his hands clasped in front of him. "Your problem isn't that you can't sleep, but... that you're afraid to sleep."
Lin Wei's pupils contracted almost imperceptibly.
"Your brain is constantly in a state of high alert. Your subconscious is resisting deep sleep because it believes that once you fall asleep, your life will be in danger." Wang Min-yu looked at her. "Have you received professional...interrogation resistance training?"
This is no longer a medical consultation.
This is an interrogation.
For the first time, an expression appeared on Lin Wei's face.
It was an expression that mixed shock and wariness.
She hadn't expected that the other party could see through so much just from taking her pulse once.
"Dr. Wang, I don't understand what you're saying." She quickly regained her composure. "If you think I'm not sick, then I'll take my leave."
She got up to leave.
"Wait a minute," Wang Minyu called out to her, "You're still sick. You need to get your medicine."
He picked up a pen and began writing quickly on the prescription slip.
Lin Wei stood there, looking at him.
She desperately wanted to leave this place that made her extremely uneasy, but the mission objective was not yet complete.
She needed a plausible excuse to stay and continue observing.
After Wang Min-yu finished writing the prescription, he handed it to Li Siyuan: "Go and get the medicine according to the prescription."
Then, he took out a... small glass bottle from the drawer.
The bottle contained half a bottle of clear liquid, with a dark, murky object floating inside.
"What is this?" Lin Wei asked warily.
"A catalyst." Wang Min-yu pushed the bottle over. "The root of your illness is in your heart. Just taking Chinese medicine won't be effective enough. We need something stronger."
He paused, then said in an extremely sincere tone, "This is our shop's exclusive secret recipe, 'Anxin San'. It is made by soaking century-old ginseng from Changbai Mountain with snow lotus from Tianshan Mountain in rootless water for eighty-one days. There is only one small bottle of it in the whole world."
Lin Wei looked at the bottle and sneered inwardly.
She'd seen this kind of scammer's tricks all too many times.
But she still took it and opened the bottle cap.
An indescribable, extremely complex smell wafted towards me.
It's a little fishy, a little salty, and has a faint, almost imperceptible, pungent smell...
This taste...it's so similar to...
Her gaze fell on the dark, unsightly thing inside the bottle.
The thing was completely black, with a layer of fine wrinkles on its surface, thick at one end and thin at the other...
Lin Wei's face instantly turned ashen.
"Wang Min-yu!" she practically spat out the words through gritted teeth. "This...this is...a donkey whip?"
"You're right. But not entirely." Wang Min-yu revealed a devilish smile. "To be precise, it's a donkey's... reproductive system nerve bundle, processed using a special technique."
"You want me to... drink this?" Lin Wei felt her stomach churning.
"Miss Lin, didn't you want to get a good night's sleep?" Wang Minyu's eyes became meaningful. "This thing won't make you fall asleep. But it can make you... completely relax."
"Aren't you afraid to sleep? I'll give you a reason that will force you to sleep."
He held up one finger and pointed at the bottle.
"Drink it. I guarantee that for the next twelve hours, you won't have any thoughts about missions, vigilance, or counter-surveillance. You'll only be thinking about one thing."
"What's the problem?"
Why is life so difficult?
Lin Wei looked at the glass bottle in her hand, then at Wang Minyu's calm and collected face.
She felt like she wasn't there to carry out a mission.
She came here to undergo tribulation.
Just as she was struggling with this dilemma, Li Siyuan had already brought over the packaged Chinese medicine.
Wang Min-yu pushed the medicine packet in front of her.
"I've already prescribed the medicine. Whether you take it or not is up to you," he said casually. "Oh, by the way, just a reminder. This medicine of mine has a special characteristic."
"Once you pay the money and take this door out, your illness will be cured, whether you drink it or not."
Lin Wei's mind raced.
She didn't believe there was such a mysterious medicine in the world.
This must be a trap.
Wang Min-yu was testing her.
If she refuses, it proves that she wasn't really there for treatment.
If she accepts... she will have to drink the water infused with donkey penis.
This is a dilemma.
Ultimately, reason, or rather, the professional competence of a high-level agent, triumphed over physical aversion.
She took out a few banknotes from her wallet and slapped them on the table.
Then, she picked up the medicine packet and the small bottle, and without saying a word, turned and left.
Watching her resolute departure, Li Siyuan leaned closer and whispered, "Master, is that thing really in that bottle?"
Wang Minyu picked up the teacup and blew on it to cool it down.
"How is that possible?"
"That's the bone marrow I had left over from the last time I ate braised pork ribs."
Li Siyuan: "..."
Zhao Na also came over: "Master, you said that if she gets the medicine, she will get better, is that true?"
"Of course it's true."
Wang Minyu pointed to the medicine packet.
"The prescription I gave her is called 'Gan Mai Da Zao Tang,' which is specifically for treating restlessness. The role of the medicinal guide is to induce strong negative emotions in her—nausea, breakdown, and anger."
"When she returns to her safe house and discovers she's been tricked, her emotions shift from extreme anger to a sense of relief and relief at surviving a close call. This dramatic emotional reversal is more effective than any sleeping pill."
"She'll sleep like a baby tonight."
Wang Minyu took a sip of tea, watching Lin Wei's figure disappear around the street corner.
"And she will come back."
"Because she'll find that after taking my medicine, her insomnia is really cured. But she'll never understand which part of the process went wrong."
"For a secret agent, a problem that she can't understand is more painful than killing her."
A barely perceptible smile appeared on Wang Minyu's lips.
The fish has taken the bait.
Next, we'll see whether the fishing line breaks first, or the fish gets dragged ashore.
