Nightmare Paradise : Starting as a Doctor

Chapter 136: Unwritten Rules and Interest

Lynn completed the checkup of the client's condition. Stepping back, he nodded with satisfaction. "The situation seems good so far. But the equipment I have available here is rather limited and basic," he remarked.

"I would strongly suggest that you go to the big hospital in the city as early as possible to undergo a full body examination and additional tests. That will allow us to monitor your progress more comprehensively."

The elderly gentleman nodded thoughtfully in response to the suggestion. He had already decided to do precisely that first thing tomorrow morning, even before the reminder was given.

He then directed the discussion toward finalizing the details of the treatment plan. "My butler has already informed me that you intend to utilize the next two weeks to eliminate the spiritual pollution contaminating my body, so I don't know how much you are asking for," he inquired.

"Four sessions in total, three hundred thousand federal dollars per session. On top of that, you must fulfill two conditions," Lynn immediately stated firmly, having already considered the pricing while resting.

No expensive materials or resources were required or consumed on his end, just time and energy. But he wanted to make more, despite already being profitable without raising the price.

He needed to accumulate a substantial amount of money before venturing into the central district's black market, and this was the perfect opportunity to do so. For someone as wealthy as this man, such amount was trivial.

The two conditions were even simpler. "The matter of me getting rid of your pollution cannot be spread out and a copy of the Demon Suppressing formula. If you agree, I can continue to treat you," he explained.

He asked for secrecy because he didn't want any trouble. This patient's contamination could be said to be extremely severe. The fact he could get rid of it would certainly attract prying eyes from knowledgeable people.

As for the medicine formula, Lynn was very curious. It was the first item he encountered capable of temporarily suppressing the spiritual pollution, it represented a valuable piece of knowledge worth collecting.

Without any hesitation, the master of the manor accepted both the price and the specified terms. Wasting no time, he promptly instructed the butler to prepare the payment.

Seeing this swift agreement, Lynn couldn't help but regret slightly. It seemed that the price he had offered was too low, perhaps he should have pressed for more. But it was too late to renegotiate now.

Pushing aside this fleeting emotion, he graciously accepted Sir Feng's invitation, and extended with Anton, to stay for dinner. it was obvious that the old man wanted to express his deep gratitude and affection.

When they left the property, it was already six or seven o'clock in the evening, and the sun had begun to set. Alfred had prepared metallic briefcases containing the initial payment and a car to send them back.

The cityscape was illuminated with the warm glow of lampposts and the streets were full of people heading home after a long day's work. This stood in stark contrast to the abandoned district nearby.

As the vehicle ventured deeper into the outskirts, the familiar decrepit buildings appeared. Entering the gloomy area of the outer district, the atmosphere subtly changed.

A group of individuals emerged from the shadows, their gazes filled with hostility and cupidity. They moved with a deliberate intent, positioning themselves strategically to block the path forward.
