At nine o'clock on Saturday morning, Lin Jie, Tao Taqing, Yao Siyuan, and Song Licheng, were waiting in front of an operating lab for Chen Shi, who had not yet shown up.

Tao Taqing looked at his watch and muttered, "What's up with old Chen? He said he'd be a little late on the phone, and he's already more than half an hour late."

"Maybe he's stuck in traffic!" Lin Jie casually speculated.

At this point, Yao Siyuan tugged on Lin Jie's sleeve, pulling him to one end of the hallway and said, "Yesterday afternoon, a girl came to ask me about cosmetic surgery. She said you referred her?"

"If her name is Niu Yilan, then yes!"

Rubbing his hands together, Yao Siyuan spoke with excitement, "That's her! She said she was very dissatisfied with her entire face and wants a complete makeover."

"In that case, this surgery is quite exceptional, needing bone restructuring first, then facial feature adjustment—this is a major operation!"

Seeing his over-the-top excitement, Lin Jie felt uneasy and asked, "Dr. Yao, you've never performed such a cosmetic surgery before, have you?"

Yao Siyuan's face froze, then he awkwardly said, "Because I can't gain the patients' trust, for operations of this scale, I've only ever participated as an assistant."

"But I've always been preparing for such large-scale surgeries, and I'm confident I can pull it off!"

"Dr. Lin, please trust me, and persuade that girl a little. For someone in my position, only if the patient insists on me as the chief surgeon can I perform this cosmetic surgery."

Geez, Lin Jie didn't expect this casual recommendation to cause him some trouble. Although Yao Siyuan's skills are good, having the necessary experience for such a surgery is also very important.

Lin Jie didn't want to tarnish the reputation of his recommendations.

At the same time, he was also somewhat surprised by Niu Yilan's decision to completely change her appearance.

Rhinoplasty, double eyelid surgery, cheek shaving, chin reduction, lip surgery—these are common cosmetic procedures, with most people choosing one or two to undergo.

Niu Yilan's decision is equivalent to reconstructing her face inside out, reaching a point where it's completely unrecognizable, which is quite rare.

Seeing Lin Jie remain silent, Yao Siyuan got a bit anxious and pleaded, "Dr. Lin, I really need this surgery to prove my abilities. Otherwise, I'll have no future in the department."

Lin Jie did not make an immediate decision, pondering, he said, "A surgery like this costs at least a hundred to two hundred thousand yuan, do the girl's parents know or even agree to it?"

"You also need to design a surgical plan, simulate the postoperative outcomes, communicate with her several times, and revise the plan; this isn't something that can be quickly accomplished."

"There are too many variables; anything could happen!"

Yao Siyuan sighed and said, "That's true! Even if everything is prepared, it's common in the cosmetic department for the person to suddenly back out just before the surgery."

"I was too eager!"

Seeing him calm down a little, Lin Jie remembered something and asked, "Niu Yilan has a strong immunity to anesthesia, did she mention that to you?"

"She did, she even showed me a combination anesthesia plan with the anesthetic agents all available at Donghua Hospital."

He further added, "To be safe, before the surgery I'll ask the hospital's anesthesia expert to conduct another anesthesia immunity test on her."

At this moment, Lin Jie saw Chen Shi finally arrive, so he and Yao Siyuan returned to the surgery lab entrance.

Chen Shi looked upset and sighed, "Sorry to keep you waiting! A good day got completely ruined by a bad student!"

"What happened?" Tao Taqing asked with concern.

Chen Shi said dejectedly, "A student was caught in the act of soliciting a prostitute by the police."

"I've been delayed for so long because, as his advisor, I had to go to the police station with the student management office staff to handle it!"

Hearing this, Lin Jie immediately thought of Shijing Mountain, wondering if it could really be so soon.

He feigned concern and asked, "Professor Chen, which student was it? It wouldn't be one of my fourteen students, would it?"

"No, it wasn't!"

Chen Shi sighed and said, "There's no need to hide it; you'll find out sooner or later anyway. It's Shijing Mountain. The police told me after interrogation that this wasn't his first time soliciting a prostitute."

"There will definitely be a fifteen-day security detention and a five-thousand-yuan fine."

It really was him, and Lin Jie was secretly pleased, asking, "How will the school deal with this?"

"What else can be done? The school rules are clear. If caught doing something like this, it's straight to expulsion!"

Irritated, Chen Shi didn't forget to remind Lin Jie, "At your age, with hormones running high, if you really can't hold back anymore, hurry and find a girlfriend you know well!"

"Remember, lust can be dangerous!"

"If some beauty throws herself at you, don't think you're lucky; it could be a trap. You don't know how many have their eyes on you, so stay on guard!"

Lin Jie knew Chen Shi really cared for him, so even though he felt embarrassed, he nodded gratefully.

Using the opportunity to warn Lin Jie, Chen Shi vented his frustration a bit, feeling calmer afterward, he said, "Before coming to school, I already called the academy morgue, and they should soon send a fresh corpse over!"

Sure enough, after more than twenty minutes, a relatively fresh female corpse was delivered to the operating room.

This time, the surgical experiment was akin to a real combat simulation.

Lin Jie was the leader of this simulation!

He marked out twenty to thirty areas on the body, mainly focusing on the chest and ribs, side waist, arms, and abdomen, directing Chen Shi, Tao Taqing, Yao Siyuan, and Song Licheng to excise the corresponding muscle fibers!

These spots were meticulously selected by Lin Jie.

The facial muscles have relatively shorter fibers; the most fiber-rich areas like the thighs, calves, and back are less suitable.

Relatively speaking, the fibers in the chest and side waist are more appropriate.

Although the human body can recover, removing too many fibers from one spot can cause permanent damage, so Lin meticulously calculated the amount to be excised from each area.

Additionally, the timing of removal, the speed and interval of taking the fibers from each area, Lin had detailed plans.

This was a relatively simple task; after explaining several times and evaluating the fibers excised by everyone, once they practiced enough, Chen Shi, Tao Taqing, and others met Lin's criteria.

The most challenging part was peeling the skin dermis!

Yao Siyuan did the best in that area, but the pieces he peeled were either too small or damaged, failing to meet Lin's standards.

After several attempts, Lin Jie ultimately gave up.

He knew this aspect tested one's surgical expertise, which isn't something quickly learned.

Lin Jie eventually decided to tackle this work himself a day ahead.

He would first harvest the skin and peel the dermis from Zhuang Shilei, storing them in a culture medium to be used directly during the next day's surgery!

This method would also effectively shorten the surgery time on the following day!

To ensure nothing went wrong, they stayed in the surgical lab, practicing numerous times until it got dark, eventually concluding the surgical simulation!

Leaving the lab, Chen Shi suggested, "Lin Jie, Fanzhi's pharmaceutical company is having an opening ceremony tomorrow morning, why don't you come along?"

Lin Jie replied nonchalantly, "I won't go."

"This surgery begins on Tuesday; I need to adjust my physical state these days! Also, Song Licheng, please inform others that the Monday morning class is canceled!"

Chen Shi saw nothing suspicious and nodded, "It's going to be a marathon surgery; you definitely need to get yourself prepared!"

As Lin Jie got into the car, once it was moving, he eagerly asked, "Was the Shijing Mountain incident orchestrated by you?"

Qin Gang chuckled and said, "Not entirely! Yesterday a comrade was tailing that guy for investigation. Unexpectedly, he went to a nightclub and hit it off with a madam there."

"My comrade knew that madam, and after chatting, found out that guy was a regular. After that, it was simple. Just time it right and make the report call."

Lin Jie chuckled; this was truly a case of self-sabotage.
