With Black Widow injured, Coulson mobilized all available resources.
Not long after, a helicopter equipped with complete emergency medical facilities circled and landed on the road.
Not long after Black Widow entered the emergency room, Coulson rushed to the hospital.
"How about it?"
While every character in the Marvel Cinematic Universe has their silly and goofy traits, most of them are actually quite reliable when things really come to a head.
Upon receiving Qin Xiao's call, Coulson's first action was to arrange for a professional medical team and a helicopter to arrive.
The second thing to do was to immediately have people search, deploy surveillance, and check the monitoring data in this area.
As soon as Qin Xiao asked that question, Coulson immediately understood what he meant.
"Two groups have been deployed. One group has been monitoring you for the past few days, and the other group is investigating your and Natasha's movements over the past few days. This was a premeditated attack, definitely not a spur-of-the-moment decision. I believe they have been following you or one of you for the past few days."
"What I'm curious about now is why the other side didn't launch any follow-up attacks after firing a missile at you?"
Qin Xiao recalled the situation in detail and said, "When the explosion happened, I was afraid Natasha would get hurt, so I held her and stood there to withstand the blast. If this had happened before I went to Asgard, I probably would have been injured. If it were an ordinary super soldier, this blow would have been enough to seriously injure him or temporarily disable him."
Coulson's mind raced through the strength Qin Xiao had displayed in front of others on several occasions, and then he put himself in the attacker's shoes and imagined what it would be like.
"It must be an intelligence problem; they misjudged your strength. If you force an attack, Natasha might die, but the attackers will definitely be either captured or killed!"
"Qin..."
Before Coulson could say anything more, the operating room door opened, and a doctor rushed out.
"Doctor?"
Qin Xiao suddenly stood up.
"The patient's chest cavity was pierced by half by shrapnel, and his lungs were severely damaged. He needs surgery as soon as possible, but the problem is that the shrapnel is very close to his heart, and there are two aortas nearby, making the surgery very difficult!"
The doctor gave a brief and quick overview of the basic situation.
The implication is that the success rate of the surgery is very low.
"There must be some way to increase the success rate, right? Advanced equipment, better doctors, there must be some way, right? Just tell me, and I can get you anyone, any equipment!"
Qin Xiao gripped the doctor's shoulder with some excitement.
The doctor let out a muffled groan of pain, and Qin Xiao quickly released his hands.
"I'm so sorry, doctor, I was just too nervous. Now, give me an answer: I want my girlfriend to come out of this operating room safely!"
"He's the best surgeon in New York City, and even in all of North America. His skills are superb; his hands are more precise than a machine. He's an extremely dedicated doctor. If he performs the surgery, your girlfriend's chances of recovery are very high."
"But that doctor had one quirk: he absolutely refused to take any work after his regular hours. A wealthy man once offered him $10 million to make house calls, but he wouldn't budge. He only did his job during working hours, saying that was the most efficient way to save lives!"
Tell me his name!
The doctor was taken aback by the coldness in Qin Xiao's eyes.
He didn't think anyone could persuade the best surgeon in all of New York to come to his aid; countless billionaires had asked him to be their private physician or family doctor, but he had always refused.
But judging from Qin Xiao's aura, and looking at Coulson with two agents beside him, he clearly looked like someone not to be trifled with, so this guy was probably no ordinary person either.
After some consideration, he came up with a name.
Stephen Strange!
Qin Xiao was taken aback when he heard the name: Doctor Strange!
Qin Xiao should have realized this when the doctor said he was the best surgeon in all of New York and even North America.
But thinking about all this now is useless, Qin Xiao hasn't said anything yet.
Coulson waved to the two agents beside him, "Find him and bring him back!"
Qin Xiao looked at the doctor.
"I guarantee there won't be any problems within an hour. If you haven't managed to get Doctor Strange by then, all I can say is I'll do my best!"
After giving the instructions, the doctor hurriedly returned to the operating room.
It's quite quick for Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. to find an ordinary person.
Just twenty minutes later, the future Doctor Strange stood in front of Qin Xiao.
Arrogant, conceited, eccentric, and insists on doing things according to his own rules.
In some ways, he is similar to Tony Stark, except that Doctor Strange is not as cynical as Tony.
"I've said it before, I don't accept any work after hours, no matter who you are! Let me go and apologize to me!"
"Five hundred million US dollars! Go in and perform this surgery, and I'll give you five hundred million US dollars!"
Qin Xiao offered a price that no normal person could refuse.
"Even if you put 500 million in cash in front of me right now, don't expect me to go in for surgery. Money is just a necessity for me, definitely not my motivation or purpose for working, so you'd better save your breath."
Doctor Strange walked up to Qin Xiao and said, word by word.
Qin Xiao reached out with lightning speed, pulled a pistol from an agent's pocket, and pointed it at Doctor Strange's head.
"Hey!"
Coulson and another agent looked at Qin Xiao with tense expressions.
"Qin, relax!"
Qin Xiao ignored this and directly threatened Doctor Strange.
"Now, go in and complete this surgery, and the five hundred million dollar promise will still stand! Otherwise..."
"Or you'll shoot, right? This is a hospital, are you going to shoot and kill me here? Sir, please call the police, your friend is being a bit too impulsive!"
Doctor Strange is unyielding, neither nimble nor stubborn.
Qin Xiao hesitated for a moment, then shot and shattered a light bulb on the ceiling.
Then he turned the gun around and aimed it at his own forehead.
"Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!" Several shots were fired in quick succession!
Then, to the astonishment of Doctor Strange and the two agents, he smashed the wall next to him with a single punch.
" Kree Palmer is also one of the doctors at this hospital. If you don't go in, I'll go and kill her right now, and then chop off your hands, which are said to be more precise than machines. Do you think the police can stop me?"
Doctor Strange stared intently at Qin Xiao.
quite a while...
He slowly opened his mouth and said, "Okay, you win! I'll go have the surgery right now, but I reserve the right to call the police afterwards!"
