Owen Maxwell, currently forty-two years old, is the top expert in neurosurgery at Massachusetts General Hospital, widely recognized as one of the world's leading brain surgeons.

He graduated from Harvard University at eighteen, then entered Harvard Medical School for further study.

At twenty-five, he obtained his medical license and was exceptionally appointed as the deputy director of the brain surgery department at Massachusetts General Hospital affiliated with Harvard University.

Throughout his medical career, he has treated renowned figures from politics, business, entertainment, and sports worldwide, compiling a list that spans several pages.

He has received the Jefferson Medical Prize in the field of neurosurgery once and was nominated for the Jefferson Medical Prize twice, in addition to countless other honors.

For six consecutive years, he has been selected as one of the top ten neurosurgeons in the United States by authoritative medical journals.

Lin Jie can be described as a self-taught talent, currently twenty-one years old.

At the age of twenty, he passed the special admissions program of Binhai University, becoming a graduate student in their medical school.

In the same year, relevant departments of the national health commission exceptionally granted him a medical license and a practicing certificate, after which he was appointed as a distinguished expert at the Binhai University Affiliated Hospital.

Later, he was recruited into the military, given the rank of a professional technical colonel, and awarded a first-class military merit badge.

As an outstanding medical generalist, Lin Jie has demonstrated extraordinary standards and notable achievements in numerous fields, including cardiac surgery, neurosurgery, pediatrics, general surgery, ENT, plastic surgery, and orthopedics.

Although he has been practicing for less than a year, he has already successfully completed dozens of high-difficulty surgeries, each considered a classic in various fields.

During the Bamboo Sea earthquake in Western Sichuan, he performed seventy-six high-intensity surgeries over consecutive days, successfully saving seventy-six lives.

Several major research results of his have been published in authoritative international and domestic journals like "Nature" and "Clinical Medicine," gaining significant recognition and response from industry professionals.

He has also published a collection of medical monographs, totaling several million words, which has sold two hundred thousand sets...

As the news of the impending medical skills competition between Maxwell and Lin Jie spread and circulated, its influence extended beyond the medical community, reaching ordinary people at home and abroad.

By Sunday, this news successfully made the headline on the trending page of various websites, becoming a hot topic of online discussion at the moment.

More and more people saw the resumes of these two individuals, their achievements, the list of specialist surgeries each had completed, and detailed yet accessible interpretations of the surgery lists from industry insiders.

Netizens sighed, saying these two are a pair of extraordinary beings as if they've opened some kind of supreme cheat.

They collectively believed that this contest would determine who among them has the more supreme cheat...

Of course, many skeptical voices also emerged online.

Especially regarding Lin Jie, many expressed that, by conventional reasoning, it would be impossible for him to achieve such feats.

However, the surgery list posted online is genuine.

Moreover, several patients who underwent surgery by Lin Jie testified in person, confirming that the surgeries did indeed happen, performed by Lin Jie.

Additionally, someone resourceful uploaded a video of a surgery led by Lin Jie onto the internet.

This video was recorded by the University Affiliated Hospital for educational purposes.

With the emergence of various precise and irrefutable evidence, the number of skeptics diminished significantly.

But, there remained some stubborn conspiracy theorists who fussed over the fact that Lin Jie was recruited by the military and rapidly promoted to colonel.

These people emphatically claimed that Lin Jie had an extraordinary background and that the people behind him were exceedingly powerful.

They loudly argued that this is a deification campaign by hidden backers to fool the ignorant masses.

To these people who refused to acknowledge the facts, someone threw them a link.

The link was an announcement from Binhai University.

The announcement clearly stated: The surgeries of Expert Lin Jie and Dr. Maxwell will simultaneously commence next Tuesday at 7 p.m. (Capital City time), 6 a.m. Boston time, and be live-streamed online.

The location of Expert Lin Jie's surgery will be the Binhai University basketball arena.

In addition to the online broadcast, there will be thousands of spectators present to observe Expert Lin Jie's surgery...

On Sunday afternoon, at Xiangtai Apartment.

Lin Miao quietly pushed open the study door, gently placed a freshly squeezed fruit juice on the desk, and tiptoed back out of the study.

"Brother is still studying that stereotactic brain map in front of the big screen."

Returning to the living room, Lin Miao said excitedly, "I suppose the sudden surge of attention must have stimulated Brother."

"This time, he's especially focused, didn't even notice when I brought in the drink."

"Kexin, is there any new news online?"

An Kexin scrolled through her tablet screen and shook her head, "Nothing new, just the same old stuff."

"However, someone has dug up all of Ajie's previous news reports, along with the video of that special admission test Ajie took."

Mentioning this, An Kexin chuckled mischievously, "Every time Ajie hits the news, this test video resurfaces, and the Hu Family of Kangning Hospital gets thoroughly criticized by netizens."

"Probably the ones who hate Ajie's rising fame the most are the Hu Family."

"Every few months, something like this happens, rendering all of Kangning Hospital's publicity and image maintenance efforts useless."

Zhang Xiaoxiao also laughed, "Indeed, this is what they call 'evil deeds will bring about their own doom.'

"Back then, they were determined to suppress and frame Ajie, only to become a laughingstock despised by everyone, unexpectedly broadcasted live online, recording all the ugly faces."

"If you ask me, this is pure karma. People with such ill intentions deserve to be sent to the eighteenth level of hell."

"Yeah, the Hu Family brought it upon themselves..."

An Kexin chimed in, her smile gradually fading, becoming solemn.

Lin Miao noticed the change in her expression and asked, "Kexin, are you worried?"

An Kexin gently nodded and said, "It's said that death is just a head touching the ground, but the Hu Family keeps being dragged out and lashed time and again..."

"I'm a bit worried they might get angry and do something irrational."

These words also prompted Zhang Xiaoxiao and Lin Miao to think, and their faces gradually showed concern.

"Kexin, do you have any ideas?"

An Kexin just smiled and said, "Don't worry, we're on the side of justice."

She said sternly, "Ah Jie once offered Hu Yuanqing a chance to reconcile and apologize, but he refused."

"After that, they kept being exposed over and over again, so they can't blame us."

"If you do something wrong and stubbornly refuse to admit it, you're just asking for criticism."

Even as she spoke, An Kexin secretly made up her mind.

Constantly being on the defensive is not a good strategy; there'll always be lapses at some point.

After this medical skills competition, when Ah Jie's reputation reaches a new peak, it would be necessary to work with her father and the Fu Family to come up with a proper solution to finally resolve the Hu Family's trouble.

The Hu Family refuses to bow their heads, refusing to give up. Leaving a snake half-dead leads to future problems.

Having made her decision, An Kexin felt relieved and changed the subject, asking, "Miaomiao, has the preliminary investigation result come out for that junior student recommended by your classmate Liu Wenyan to the charity fund?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Miao blushed, feeling a bit embarrassed, and said, "Kexin, there's a result."

"The junior student is indeed seriously injured, and his family truly doesn't have much money for treatment, but..."

"How should I put this? Because the junior's family lives right here in Binhai, the review department colleagues went to his neighborhood for an undercover visit on Saturday."

"The community committee and neighbors all said that the junior's parents are lazy and indulgent, always going to the game room to play mahjong as soon as they have money."

"When they run out of money..."

Feeling angry, Lin Miao said, "When they're out of money, they send the junior to cause a scene."

"Since the junior is blind and has the upper hand in public opinion, he usually manages to extort a little or more every time he causes a scene."

"This time, when the junior got hit, many neighbors during the undercover visit privately said..."

"They told the undercover colleagues that this was a deliberate act of revenge by those he scammed, intentionally hitting the junior."

"It was a planned retaliation, choosing a blind spot in every aspect to hit him, which is why they couldn't trace the perpetrator's car and identity."

An Kexin made an 'oh' sound and asked, "This should be the parents' fault, how's this junior's character?"

Lin Miao shook her head and said, "The colleagues from the undercover visit said the neighbors and community have a poor opinion of this junior."

"They said he's a great pretender, very good at acting pitiful, but is just a scoundrel."

An Kexin seemed to understand and asked, "Miaomiao, does your classmate Liu Wenyan know about this junior's family's situation and his own?"

Lin Miao hesitated and said, "When I called to tell her, she was quite surprised, so she probably didn't know."

"But, you know how it is, you can only know the face, not the heart."

"I'm not sure either."

Lin Miao hesitated, "Liu Wenyan even asked me to help her, to have my brother check her eyes."

"My brother agreed and scheduled a check-up for next Friday."

"I'm a bit regretful now for telling my brother about this."

An Kexin gently laughed, comforting her, "Miaomiao, there's no need for you to regret this."

"We're a charity fund, and we have basic moral standards for the patients seeking help."

"Ah Jie is a doctor, his job is to treat the sick, and he's not too concerned with other matters."

"Besides, you can't be sure that Liu Wenyan intentionally deceived you, can you? Maybe she's just as deceived as you are."

Lin Miao nodded in agreement and said, "I did get a good impression of Liu Wenyan."

She sighed and said, "I hope she was deceived too, and I hope there's a chance to cure her eyes as well."

An Kexin gently patted Lin Miao's shoulder and said, "There are still more good people in this world. Okay, let's get dinner ready."

"Let's do a good job in logistics and prepare a sumptuous dinner for Ah Jie."

As she said this, she prepared to get up but was held back by Zhang Xiaoxiao on her shoulder.

"Kexin, right now, Ah Jie is at a crucial moment; nothing can go wrong. You sit here and rest, watch TV."

"Leave the kitchen work to Miaomiao and me..."
