64: Lin Ming undergoes surgery

“The Young Master’s orders have been carried out. We don’t need to bother with this guy anymore. We’ll go back, edit the video, and then upload it online…”

Da Ma Hou lowered his head, looking at the various video recordings saved on his phone. The corners of his mouth curved upwards uncontrollably, and he couldn't help but let out a series of cackles.

Having made up their minds, Wolong and Fengchu didn't linger any longer and quickly left the Lanzi Group's parking lot.

After Da Ma Hou and Ergouzi left, Mu Feng was still engrossed in devouring the ‘Oli Ge’. After finishing, he would head to the women’s restroom to continue ‘panning for gold’, then bring it back to the parking lot to eat.

He repeated this cycle, never tiring of it.

Time slowly passed. As noon approached, many office workers arrived at the parking lot, heading out for lunch during their break.

Seeing Mu Feng frantically eating 'Oli Ge', several young girls who hadn't seen much of the world were instantly terrified and shrieked, and a flurry of discussions erupted among the crowd.

“Holy crap, whose subordinate is this, to be so brave?”

“Eating ‘Oli Ge’ like crazy in broad daylight, is this something a human can do?”

“I’ve never seen such a shameless person!”

“Well, you’ve seen one today…”

A few junior executives from Lanzi Group recognized Mu Feng’s identity, dropping their jaws in utter shock.

“This… this guy is actually Mu Feng, the Young Master of Mu’s Real Estate Group!”

“Good heavens, has Young Master Mu Feng gone mad?”

After recovering from their shock, everyone pulled out their phones and started snapping pictures of Mu Feng again, all wanting to get their hands on some first-hand dirt about Young Master Mu.

After all, getting gossip about high-society figures wasn't an everyday occurrence, so they were naturally extra excited.

Mu Feng, as the person involved, completely ignored them, as if he hadn't heard the discussions around him at all.

The three hours of the 'Crazy and Foolish Talisman' had not yet passed, so Mu Feng naturally showed no expression, only performing various bizarre and shocking acts as set by Jiang Che.

…………………

Meanwhile, in a certain ward at Linjiang City First Peoples Hospital.

“Doctor, is there really no other way?”

“Must the urethra be reconnected to the anus?”

(This is a brainless, feel-good novel; please disregard logic.)

Lin Ming, wearing a hospital gown, lay on the hospital bed with a face full of despair, his complexion pale, and his lips trembling as he asked.

No one knew what kind of miserable life Lin Ming had endured these past few days; no one could replicate his unique experience.

After being punished by the System and losing his 'brothers' at the very beginning, Lin Ming was despondent for three days before finally accepting the fact.

Before Lin Ming could even recover, bad news followed one after another.

Because the System intervened and made Lin Ming experience a painless abortion, his 'tool' simply vanished without a trace, leaving no opening whatsoever. This created an incredibly awkward and serious problem.

Lin Ming discovered that he couldn't urinate like a normal person, and he couldn't even squat to pee like a eunuch.

He couldn't urinate, but Lin Ming also couldn't stop drinking water.

Even if he only took small sips when he absolutely couldn't bear the thirst, after a few days, Lin Ming felt a strong urge to urinate that reached his scalp, and his 'two lychees' were about to explode!

This feeling of pain made Lin Ming's heart pound, unbearable, yet he had no way to resolve it.

For his peculiar condition, the attending physician offered three solutions.

First: undergo gender reassignment surgery abroad to become a woman completely.

This type of surgery is illegal in Jiuzhou Country, so naturally no doctor would be willing to perform it for Lin Ming, especially since he couldn't offer enough wealth to persuade them.

Second: completely remove the 'two lychees', leaving a small incision for Lin Ming to urinate later.

This surgery sounds simple but is actually extremely difficult to perform and carries great risks; a single mistake could cost Lin Ming his life.

Post-surgery, there could be recurrent infections, severe bleeding, mood changes, osteoporosis, and a host of other issues.

Third: reconnect Lin Ming’s urethra to his anus.

Because doctors found through X-ray examination that Lin Ming's urethra, for some bizarre reason, had deeply embedded itself in the lower abdomen, very close to the anus, making reconnection entirely feasible.

This was also the relatively lowest-risk surgery, which is why all the doctors strongly recommended it.

“Either remove the lychees, or reconnect the urethra, or you go abroad for gender reassignment surgery…”

“We respect the patient’s wishes, you can choose for yourself.”

Facing Lin Ming's question, the attending physician pushed up his glasses, repeating the same words with a serious and earnest expression.

Lin Ming's condition could not be delayed; perhaps one day his 'lychees' would explode from the pressure, and if not handled properly, he would die.

Therefore, the attending physician almost daily advised Lin Ming, wanting to arrange surgery for him.

Practicing medicine for decades, this was the first time he had encountered such a bizarre case as Lin Ming's, and he was instinctively curious, naturally wanting to study it.

“Then, I’ll have the reconnection surgery…”

“How much will the surgery cost?”

Lin Ming hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and spoke, finally making this difficult decision.

The day after tomorrow was the deadline for the System's forced public nudity punishment.

Given the System’s nature, if he didn’t do it voluntarily, the System would definitely force him to run naked in the streets.

Anyway, he was going to be publicly humiliated no matter what. Rather than being forced by the System, he might as well do it voluntarily. At least that way, he might feel a little better, right?

Before running naked, the problem Lin Ming had to deal with was his urination.

Otherwise, he felt that he might not even last until the day after tomorrow and would be suffocated to death!

At this thought, Lin Ming’s face instantly darkened, his skin trembled, his fists clenched, veins bulged on his forehead, and he cursed the System’s ancestors eight generations back in his mind.

If it weren't for this idiotic God-level Takeout System, how would he have ended up in such a miserable state?

This is absolutely ridiculous!

He, Lin Ming, had been brilliant his entire life, so why did he awaken such an idiotic System?

Despite the raging anger towards the God-level Takeout System in his heart, Lin Ming was utterly helpless and could only follow the doctor’s advice for the surgery.

He had previously asked the System if there was a way to restore him, and the Waimai System had given a clear answer.

As long as he continuously completed Waimai tasks, he would earn points, which he could then use in the System Mall to exchange for various abilities, including restoring his 'tool'.

Only after receiving the System's specific answer did Lin Ming feel a glimmer of comfort; at least he still had hope of returning to being a normal man, right?

Although the God-level Takeout System was a huge, idiotic trap, Lin Ming couldn't do without it; all his hope rested on the System.

“Given your special condition, the hospital can waive your surgery fees, but we will analyze and compile your case, then publish it in relevant medical journals, which requires your consent.”

“Of course, your name will not be mentioned.”

The attending physician replied, naturally fully aware of Lin Ming’s concerns.

After all, this guy had been hospitalized for several days without anyone visiting him, likely an orphan with no parents, and thus unable to afford the high medical expenses.

A hospital is not a charity. If Lin Ming's situation wasn't truly unique, unprecedented, and highly valuable for research, the hospital would not have waived all his fees.

“I agree!”

…………………

And so, under the attending physician’s arrangement, Lin Ming was wheeled into the operating room half an hour later, beginning his extremely unique surgical journey…
