"Medical license?"
Su Xiu's expression changed, and he was slightly surprised.
In fact-
He had successfully treated many people and earned more than 20,000 pounds from it.
Qin Shihuang was completely numb from eating pepper.
But in essence, he was still a quack without a license, and his actions were illegal.
It seemed like nothing had happened.
However, if someone wanted to use this excuse to attack him, Su Xiu would not be able to resist.
At that time, not only would his 'illegal gains' be confiscated, but he might even be sent to prison.
At that time, Chen Rui would be numb from eating the pepper.
Therefore, a medical license was necessary.
However, if he applied for a medical license himself, the entire process would take at least a year and a half.
However, it only took Adrian a week.
This was what connections were.
"Thank you."
Su Xiu said solemnly.
To Adrian, applying for his medical license was a piece of cake.
However, to Su Xiu, this solved his worries. It was a favor.
"It's alright."
"We're friends now, aren't we?" Adrian asked matter-of-factly. Wasn't it only right to help a friend?”
"Then,"
Su Xiu replied with a smile," If you need my help next time, I definitely won't decline.”
"Of course."
Adrian smiled too.
"Right, Bill."
Just as the two of them were about to leave, Su Xiu suddenly said," Help me find a publishing firm.”
"A publishing firm?"
" What are you going to publish, Sue?" Birch asked. An autobiography or a recollection? It's still a little too early for you.”
Rich people liked to publish some autobiographies or reminiscences, and most of them did not sell well.
However, they did not rely on these things to make money. They were completely entertaining themselves.
However, judging from Su Xiu's age, it seemed a little early to publish a book.
"No."
Su Xiu explained," It's just some novels I wrote.”
"A novel?"
Adrian and Bill were slightly surprised.
"Oh, Su."
Bill suddenly laughed." You shouldn't have asked me for help. Adrian is the expert in this field.”
"Oh?"
Su Xiu looked at the young man in front of him in surprise.
"Adrian's father is Sir Lesley Stephen.”
Bill explained, and Su Xiu immediately understood.
Lellis Stephen, a famous writer in the British Empire.
He was the first editor-in-chief of the British Biography and wrote 378 entries for it.
At the same time, he wrote five biographies for the British Writers Series.
He advocated agnostism and wrote a book on evolution,"The Science of ethics". In addition, he also wrote "A History of British Thought in the Eighteenth Century" and "The British Utilitarians".
To outsiders, these books might not even be heard of.
But in Britain and London, Lellis Stephen was very famous.
"I'm ashamed."
Adrian smiled wryly." As my father's only son, I failed to inherit his literary attainments, and I've always disappointed him.”
Su Xiu didn't know how to respond, so he changed the topic.
"Leah, go and get the manuscript on my study table.”
"Yes, Master."
Leah nodded obediently and quickly went upstairs.
When she returned to the living room, she handed Su Xiu a stack of manuscripts.
Su Xiu then handed the manuscript to Adrian.
Adrian did not reject it, and he took the manuscript seriously.
Although he didn't have much expectations for his new friend's work, he still had to show his due respect.
"No survivors?"
Adrian was slightly surprised when he saw the title.
From the name, it seemed to be a horror novel.
He had only wanted to take a cursory look at it, but as he looked at it…
At some point, Adrian was actually a little fascinated.
The story was not complicated. It was about a serial murder that happened on a deserted island.
Eight strangers were invited to the island.
When they arrived, only the butler and his wife were there to receive them.
During dinner, the gramophone in the dining room suddenly rang, accusing the guests, the butler, and his wife of murder.
While everyone was panicking, one of the guests suddenly died, and the nightmare began.
When they returned to their rooms, they found a nursery rhyme.
Ten little Indian boys running for food;
If one choked to death, there was no way to save them.
Nine little Indian boys, sleepless at night;
He fell asleep, and only eight of the nine remained.
Eight little Indian boys, hunting in Devonshire;
Leaving one behind, there were only seven left.
Seven little Indian boys, cutting down trees and branches;
The axe split one in half, leaving only six out of seven.
Six little Indian boys toying with a hive to provoke bees;
A sting came and died, and only five of the six were left.
Five little Indian boys, stirring up trouble and going to court;
Lawsuits until death, four out of five.
Four little Indian boys who had gone out to sea together and met with a disaster;
The fish swallowed a bloody one, leaving only three out of four.
Three little Indian boys in the zoo;
The black bear suddenly descended from the sky, leaving only two of the three.
Two little Indian boys sighing under the sun;
Grief and sorrow were scorched to death, and only one of the two remained.
A little Indian boy, coming and going alone;
He hung himself from a beam, leaving no one behind.
Since the first night, people died every day according to the children's song.
Every time a person died, one of the porcelain statues on the dining table would disappear.
For a moment, everyone was in danger, hoping to find a way to save their lives.
However, there was a huge storm on the sea. It was impossible to find help or escape.
The only way to survive was to find the murderer.
……
"Adrian."
After some time, Adrian suddenly heard a shout.
"Ah!"
Adrian was jolted awake from the story, and he broke out in a cold sweat. He quickly apologized," Su, I was too engrossed in the story. I'm really sorry.”
"It's my honor."
Su Xiu smiled and asked with some anticipation," How is it?”
" I can't find the words to describe it, but…"
Adrian was extremely excited. This was an extremely wonderful work, and it could be said to be perfect!”
"Oh, my friend."
Su Xiu said humbly," This is just a detective novel. You're exaggerating.”
In fact, it wasn't strange for the other party to have such a reaction.
After all, this was a masterpiece written by Agatha Christie, the Queen of Mystery!
Even if he had never read this book, he must have heard of its name.
Because it was this book that created the isolated island mode, also known as the Blizzard Villa mode.
A large number of suspense novels in the future were inspired by it to further develop the island model.
For example, there were many isolated island dramas, such as the murder at the Snow Mountain Villa and the murder at the ski villa.
The six detectives who were summoned by letters died one after another, which was actually an adaptation of No Survivor.
One could imagine how much influence this novel had on later novels and films.
What Su Xiu wanted to do now was to release it decades in advance.
He didn't think that this masterpiece would decline just because it was brought forward by a few decades.
Adrian's performance perfectly confirmed Su Xiu's thoughts.
"Exaggerated? No! It's not an exaggeration at all!"
"Look at what's popular in the market now," Adrian insisted. Treasure Island or Alice in Wonderland? I bet, Sue, none of their stories are as exciting as yours!”
Adrian struck while the iron was hot, and he looked at Su Xiu with a hopeful gaze.
"Su, I hope you can let me publish this manuscript!”
