Benjamin opened his eyes in a daze and saw darkness and nothingness all around him.
"What... what is this place?"
This strange place made him a little scared.
A green light suddenly appeared and entered his mind directly from the fontanelle on his head.
Suddenly, many more things were in his mind, including various ancient texts and strange knowledge.
Body Tempering Method, Cultivation Techniques, Art of Weapon Refinement, Path of Herbal Medicine, Feng Shui and Metaphysics...
But there were too many of these things, too complicated, and he couldn't see them all clearly for a while.
He tried hard to feel the picture in his mind, and finally, a few large golden characters appeared - The Great Demon Technique.
…
Benjamin suddenly opened his eyes and found himself lying on the street.
"That... was a dream just now?"
But then, the practice method of The Great Demon Technique appeared in his mind, and one of the magical techniques was called the Great Freedom Mysterious Golden Sword Qi.
This magical technique could condense the Spiritual Power in the body into sword energy and slash it at the enemy. After it was mastered, it could split mountains and cut rivers.
Benjamin got up from the ground. The strange dream just now was deeply engraved in his mind as if it were real.
Later, he recalled what happened in Olivia's rental house and gritted his teeth with hatred. Not only did this couple cuckold him, but they also beat him half to death and threw him directly into the street. It was absolutely detestable.
"Olivia, you bitch, and Samuel, you who hit me, I remember everything, and I swear to return it a hundredfold, a thousandfold, to you two treacherous dogs."
Benjamin touched his nose. When Samuel hit him just now, he hit him with great force, and several punches hit the nose. He also heard a "crack" sound. At that time, he was still thinking the nose bone was probably broken.
But he found his nose intact and did not seem harmed.
He couldn't help but be slightly surprised; what was going on? Could it be that strange dream just now?
At this time, Benjamin's phone suddenly rang.
He picked up his cell phone from his pocket and saw that the caller ID was Sophia Scott, Benjamin's direct leader and the surgical director at Eastern Sea Hospital.
After answering the phone, Benjamin immediately said, "Hello, Director Scott. Are you calling for anything?"
A cold voice came from the other side, "Benjamin, where are you? Go back to the hospital right away!"
Benjamin heard the anger in the voice on the other side and was very puzzled. He didn't know what happened. He immediately asked, "Director Scott, is there anything wrong? Did something happen?"
"Don't you know what you did?" Sophia snorted coldly, "You should return to the hospital now. I don't want to talk nonsense with you!"
After saying these words, Sophia hung up the phone directly.
Benjamin was puzzled, "What did I do? What on earth did I do?"
But at this time, there was no time to think so much. He quickly stopped a taxi and rushed to the hospital.
…
Speaking of Sophia, she was a woman of significant influence.
She was beautiful, had numerous admirers, and had a significant reputation in Eastern Sea City. However, she always looked cold and got the nickname, Ice Beauty.
Moreover, she was also a well-known genius. At age twenty-three, she obtained a dual master's degree from Oxford University School of Medicine. She also studied under the world-famous surgical expert and field doctor Knight. She once served as an assistant and operated worthy of being recorded in the medical history books.
After Sophia returned to China, major hospitals in the country wanted to hire her with high salaries, but she rejected them all. What was shocking was that she ended up at Eastern Sea Hospital, which was not very eye-catching.
As to what the reason was, no one knew.
Benjamin hurried back to the hospital and knocked on the door of Sophia's office.
"Come in!" A cold voice came from inside.
When Benjamin came in, he saw another person wearing a security uniform, William Collins, the hospital's security department chief.
Benjamin asked Sophia softly, "Director Scott, are you looking for me? What's wrong? What happened?"
"Boom!"
Sophia slammed the table heavily and growled, "Benjamin, you really disappointed me!"
On the side, William took out a bag and threw it on the table, "Look at this!"
Benjamin opened the bag and saw it contained many expensive small instruments and medicines from the hospital.
William pointed at the bag's contents and said sternly, "Benjamin, all these things were found in your locker. You have some audacity. How dare you steal things from the hospital? These things are worth more than 100,000 dollars. Well, if the police are called, you will be jailed!"
"What?"
Benjamin was struck by lightning and hurriedly said, "I really don't know what's happening. I swear, I have never stolen anything from the hospital, really!"
"You bastard, you never learn until you face the consequences!"
William pointed at Benjamin's nose and cursed, "Olivia reported seeing you secretly selling small precision instruments from the hospital outside. We searched your locker and found these. There are both witnesses and physical evidence. Do you still want to deny it?"
William took out his mobile phone and said to Sophia, "Director Scott, I think we should stop talking nonsense and call the police directly!"
Sophia was silent for a while and then said, "Forget it, considering that he is still young; we have got the things back, so don't worry about it. Let it go."
Although William was a little unhappy, he didn't dare make Sophia lose face, so he nodded and agreed.
Sophia looked at Benjamin and said coldly, "From today on, you should be a nurse for the time being and don't return to the clinic to treat patients."
"What, you ask me to be a nurse?"
Benjamin was very surprised. Although there were male nurses in the hospital, the number was very small, and most male nurses did heavy, dirty, and tiring work. It was an extremely tiring position.
Moreover, if he became a nurse, he would no longer be able to treat patients. So, wouldn't the pharmacological knowledge he learned in school be useless?
Benjamin still wanted to argue, but Sophia gave him a fierce look, "That's enough; this matter is settled. Otherwise, I will hand you over to Section Chief Collins, and then you will be jailed!"
Benjamin felt aggrieved, but he knew this must be a setup against him by Olivia and Samuel together.
"Olivia and Samuel, you two wait and see. I will never let you get away with it!"
