A Proper Doctor

Qin Rang pondered for a moment and said, "I heard that those children with high scores are all very happy after being adopted by wealthy Dad. Some of them have even come back to visit us and brought us lots of delicious food from outside."

Tao Yuan and the others all knew this, because the Disciplinarian Director had mentioned these things during the morning prayers.

Qin Rang added, "But I find it a bit strange."

Although he is young, he is more sensitive, intelligent, and mature than other children, and therefore thinks more deeply.

Qin Rang said, "Why don't they seem happy when they come back? Their smiles look fake. And they usually don't come back alone; there's always someone with them, following them everywhere, like they're being monitored."

"Many of the older brothers and Older Sisters who were adopted never came back."

Lin Nieran chimed in, "Indeed, I also have friends who promised to come back to see me, but they haven't returned even once since they left."

Qin Rang asked doubtfully, "Aren't you at D-Rank? Is it possible for someone at D-Rank to be willing to adopt you?"

"I was in A-Rank before, but my score dropped later. I met my adopted friend when I was in A-Rank," Lin Nieran said.

"Weren't you together? You don't seem very close," An Ying asked, puzzled.

Qin Rang glanced at Lin Yi: "He doesn't talk much. I've only seen him from afar a few times, and we've never spoken before."

Lin Nieran yawned, forcing back her tears, and nodded. "Yes, I've heard of Qin Rang, but I don't know him well either. I only know that he doesn't have many friends."

"No friends?" An Ying's eyes widened slightly. Qin Rang had no friends? Apart from Tao Yuan, Qin Rang knew the most people in their team.

"Yes, we were all isolated," Qin Rang said in a low voice, his fox-like eyes slightly lowered.

This was the first time Wang Ding and the others had heard of Qin Rang's past, and they looked over curiously.

"Isolation? Because of what?"

The grown-up captain always had a smile on his face and seemed to have a very good temper; everyone in the Authorities had a very good impression of him. Could someone like that be isolated?

On the grid, Tao Yuan moved forward another grid alone, her heart pounding, but she was still safe.

The Black Cat followed closely behind, but its ears were already tilted back, trying to catch any gossip behind it.

Lin Nieran and said, "I know what's going on."

"He used to be B-Rank student. He mocked the intelligence of an entire class when answering a question in class, and afterwards he was ostracized. I heard about it even when I was in the A-Rank. It was widely known, and even the Disciplinarian Director remembered him."

Mi Chuchu, An Ying, and Wang Ding looked at Qin Rang in shock, their eyes filled with a thirst for knowledge awaiting confirmation.

Qin Rang nodded under the gazes of the others and said frankly, "Yes, that's correct."

"Wow!" Mi Chuchu coaxed the child politely, "Very unique!"

Wang Ding exerted force, leaving a long ink mark on the notebook with his pen. Fortunately, he controlled his strength in time, otherwise the pen tip would have almost been broken by Mi Chuchu's shout.

An Ying slightly curled the corners of her lips and followed Mi Chuchu's words, saying, "She has personality."

Qin Rang heard the amusement in An Ying's words, and he pointed at Lin Nieran without any mercy, saying, "This is nothing. Lin Yi broke the legs and arms of several classmates who bullied him, and those classmates went to complain to the Disciplinarian Director, so Lin Yi repeatedly broke their legs."

Lin Nieran quickly said, "That was all done when I first arrived, I didn't know any better..."

Lin Yi no longer does things openly that could easily cause him trouble; he only does them secretly.

Mi Chuchu patted Lin Nieran happily. "Amazing! That's how it should be. They bullied you, so if you beat them up, they won't dare bully you again!"

An Ying quickly said, "Sister Chu, don't lead the children astray."

"What's the big deal? Do you think Lin Yi will grow up to be the kind of person who kills indiscriminately? Impossible," Mi Chuchu said.

Lin Nieran nodded. Lin Yi and Qin Rang were the same kind of people; neither of them were easy to deal with.

After resisting, Lin Yi was demoted from A to B. Then someone attacked him again, and Lin Yi resisted, so he was demoted from B to C, and finally to D.

If a higher-ranking child bullies a lower-ranking child, unless it's a catastrophic mistake, the lower-ranking child will always lose points, regardless of whose fault it is.

After dropping all the way down to D-Rank, Lin Yi learned his lesson. Most of the time, no matter how much he was bullied, he chose to endure it without retaliating. Only when pushed to the limit would he use a method that wouldn't be detected to retaliate fiercely.

Even if that person knew it was him, without evidence, the Disciplinarian Director couldn't do anything about it.

Over time, intelligent people understood what was going on and rarely went against him anymore, but Lin Yi also gained many unpleasant nicknames and rumors.

Flower Language's tone was chilling. "Breaking their legs is too lenient; they should be killed, their corpses used as soil, and their blood as fertilizer."

Wu Liang asked, "Who is it? I'll deal with it tomorrow—no, now."

Lin Nieran gave the two of them a subtle glare, and they immediately calmed down.

Wang Ding said, "I didn't expect you two to be so righteous. Getting back to the main topic, what happens after the adoption?"

Qin Rang shook his head. "There will be no future. The last time someone who was adopted came back to visit everyone was a year ago."

"Are there many adopted children?" Wu Liang asked, twirling his Scalpel.

"There are many adoption days. There's an adoption day every week, and this week it's the day after tomorrow. Many people will come to visit then."

"If there are prospective adopters, they can come and adopt anytime, and girls are more likely to be adopted than boys."

Mi Chuchu instinctively felt uncomfortable upon hearing this. "So many? This doesn't make sense, does it? How could so many people need orphans? Don't they have children of their own?"

An Ying's pink eyes briefly shifted from Tao Yuan, who was intently playing hopscotch a short distance away, and she joined the conversation. "Even if this is the only Orphanage in the city, there shouldn't be so many people needing to adopt children, unless there's some illicit transaction involved."

"But even if there's some kind of transaction... it wouldn't cost this much..." Mi Chuchu lowered her voice, "Could it be organ trafficking or something? Don't the people here care?"

Qin Rang and Lin Nieran looked at Mi Chuchu with blank expressions. Mi Chuchu slapped her forehead. "I forgot you're still young and don't know what's going on outside. Never mind what I said."

"Or perhaps, it's not just that." Flower Language's ethereal voice echoed in everyone's ears, "If someone demands organs, they should either kill them outright or feed them well. There shouldn't be any hierarchy, and so many children shouldn't be being raised like this."

"That makes sense. If it's organ trafficking, many of these children aren't physically suited for it." An Ying looked at Wu Liang. "Have you seen any examples like this? Are children with these physical conditions suitable for organ transplantation?"

Wu Liang smiled. "I'm a legitimate Doctor."

An Ying gave an awkward yet polite smile, "I'm sorry."
