Chapter 639: Chapter 639

After finishing a bowl of herbal medicine, Jiang Gao placed the medicine bowl on the bedside table and then took a cup of boiled water from the same spot.

After he had completely finished the water, he finally spoke, "Divine Doctor Su, how long will it take to completely recover from my condition with treatment?"

Without hesitation, Su Fan said, "About a month or so."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Gao nodded, "I will be relying on Divine Doctor Su for this month."

Smiling, Su Fan said, "Mayor Jiang is too kind. Treating and saving people is my duty."

"Mayor Jiang is the parental official of Yang City, and the peace and order of Yang City rely completely on your leadership."

"It's an honor for me and the affiliated hospital to treat Mayor Jiang."

These words from Su Fan were half true, half flattery.

Yet, it's often these partially true words that make one feel very comfortable.

Jiang Gao was competent, and under his governance, Yang City was developing quite well.

Thus, Su Fan's praise wasn't entirely unwarranted.

Jiang Gao felt quite pleased when he heard Su Fan's words.

He had thought that young people like Su Fan, ambitious and capable, would inevitably be quite arrogant.

However, Su Fan, despite his high medical skills and owning a not so small enterprise, also took on the role of president of the Yang City Martial Arts Association, and yet his interpersonal handling was flawless.

Such a person was naturally someone Jiang Gao wanted to get to know.

But now, given his poor health, otherwise he would have definitely kept Su Fan for dinner no matter what.

Su Fan discussed follow-up treatment matters with the mayor, then took his leave.

Jiang Gao's illness wouldn't heal in a short while; it required continued treatment and a period of home rest.

The treatment for today had come to an end.

He now needed to return to the hospital to deal with other matters.

As Su Fan drove to the affiliated hospital, he found a large number of police cars and many special forces troops surrounding it.

At this sight, he couldn't help but feel alarmed.

Su Fan looked around the crowd but didn't see anyone he knew.

He could only approach a security officer to inquire what had happened.

He had been at Mayor Jiang's house treating him and was completely unaware of the events at the affiliated hospital.

After Su Fan asked, the security officer initially wanted to move him back to a safe area.

But the officer clearly recognized Su Fan, and indeed Su Fan held several socially significant roles.

The officer then said, "Chairman Su, there has been an incident at the affiliated hospital."

"Do you remember the criminal gang that entered Yang City some time ago?"

Su Fan nodded, "I remember, what about it?"

He certainly remembered.

To combat this gang of criminals, Xia Lingwei had almost been fatally caught.

In the end, Xia Lingwei was saved from danger thanks to his timely intervention.

He later learned that two leaders of this roaming criminal gang had initially not been captured.

Either they had fled or they were hiding somewhere in Yang City.

After Su Fan nodded, the security officer continued, "We laid a dragnet around Yang City, waiting for these two gang leaders to fall into the trap."

"They seemed to know about our setup and did not rush to leave Yang City."

"But as we continuously intensified our search efforts throughout Yang City..."

"These two criminals finally couldn't bear it anymore."

"In their attempt to escape, one was seriously injured and captured."

"The other criminal leader resisted all the way and ended up at the affiliated hospital."

"He is armed with firearms and explosives, and now controls a large number of hostages."

"Additionally, since he is a martial artist at the Bursting Energy level, we don't have a very good way to handle him at the moment."

As president of the Yang City Martial Arts Association, Su Fan was certainly entitled to know these things.

With his awareness of the situation here, Su Fan might be able to provide some assistance.
