The Blacklist

Chapter 288 How to Turn Plans into Reality
In the prison ward, Kirk was very happy to see Elizabeth come in, but he was stunned to see that she actually brought cigarettes and lighters. Then he thought that this must be what Carrie meant, so he said angrily: "Martha, does your Director Carrie wish I would die sooner?"

"Puchi!" Seeing his angry look, Elizabeth couldn't help laughing out loud, then waved her hand and explained: "Kirk, you misunderstood Carrie! This cigarette was customized by him through special channels. It removes nicotine, nicotine and other substances. It is not only non-toxic, but also has certain health benefits. The cost is very high..." As she said, she handed over the cigarette.

Kirk was stunned for a moment. He really didn't expect this to happen. He said unyieldingly, "I don't believe he is so kind..." As he spoke, he took the cigarette and lighter, opened them immediately, took out a cigarette, and then realized something and was about to put the cigarette back...

"It's okay, go ahead and smoke!" Elizabeth said hastily, "The smell of this cigarette isn't pungent, I'm used to it a long time ago."

She said it casually, but Kirk felt a pain in his heart - although he already knew the truth, he still felt that his daughter had been deceived! Then he smiled bitterly to himself.

Kirk hesitated for a moment as he lit a cigarette, but still expressed his hope: "Director Kerry told me about a female doctor who cured a terminal patient of my disease 12 years ago... Is that true?"

Elizabeth was stunned when she heard this, and then she remembered the information she saw on Carrie's computer after solving the case, and said, "There is such a person..." and then explained the situation of the Lindquist chaebol case.

Kirk was heartbroken when he heard that the female doctor had been missing for 12 years!

Then, Elizabeth continued, "After the case was solved, Director Carrie arranged for someone to find this doctor. There should be news soon." When she said this, she felt something in her heart and became anxious. After saying a few more words, she got up and left.

Kirk did not notice her abnormality, but fell into the expectation of the future. He now hoped that Director Kerry would be able to find the female doctor as he wished!
Elizabeth left the infirmary and hurried to find Carrie. When they met, she asked, "Lee, after the last case was over, did Lao Lei take the case file of the female doctor?"

"Yeah, what's wrong?" Carrie said.

"I... I'm worried!" Elizabeth said, "I'm worried that Old Lei will find that female doctor... and won't let her treat Kirk..."

“Haha!” Carrie laughed loudly, and then said while laughing: “Liz, if Lao Lei was here and heard you say that about him, he would definitely be heartbroken...Haha!”

Elizabeth was stunned. She looked at Gina who was also a little surprised, not knowing what to say.

After laughing for a while, Carrie said, "You all underestimate Lao Lei! Don't worry, the reason why Lao Lei wanted to find that female doctor was to save Kirk..."

At this point, he paused, and continued in a serious tone: "You don't understand him, but as a man, I can guess what he means - Reddington and Kirk both love Katarina deeply, but they both lost her and can't live together! It's good to save Kirk's life and have someone who shares the same suffering as you... Well, it's not ruled out that Reddington feels that he is still suffering in the world, and Kirk wants to leave first. No way!"

Huh? Gina and Elizabeth were both stunned. Is this what a man thinks? Carrie scratched his head and said in a more serious tone, "I'm sure that's what Lao Lei thinks!"

At this moment, Reddington, who was rushing to the post office, sneezed twice in the back seat of the car, alarming Dembe who was driving. He turned around and asked, "Old Reddington, are you okay?"

"It's okay." Reddington took out a handkerchief and wiped his nose while saying, "I don't know which guy is saying bad things about me behind my back... Well, we're almost at the post office now, it must be Lee... A-choo!"

Dumby was amused by him and couldn't help but say, "Well, it's possible! But if you say that to him, he will probably sneeze too!"

"Ha! That would be great!" Reddington also laughed.
-
When Reddington and Dembe came to Carrey's office, they started laughing as soon as they entered the door, which made him confused. Just as he was about to ask them what they were laughing at, he felt his nose itchy and couldn't help sneezing. Now the two of them laughed even more!
Elizabeth felt strange and pulled Dembe to ask what was going on. After hearing his explanation, she and Gina beside her burst into laughter.

Reddington saw Carrie staring at him and quickly waved his hands and said, "This is all coincidence, coincidence..."

After joking for a while, everyone sat down and Reddington told them the purpose of his visit - the new blacklisted character "Coroner", whose "business" in the underground world is to sell the identity information of dead people, allowing those who want to hide their identities to change to new identities and start a new life.

As long as this "autopsy man" is found, Dr. Sonya Bloom, who has been given a new identity by him, can be found, so that Dr. Sonya Bloom can use gene therapy to treat Kirk's disease...

Hearing this, Elizabeth was stunned. Thinking of what Carrie had said before, she couldn't help but ask, "Old Lei, don't you hate Kirk? He wants to kill you!"

"I hate him!" Reddington said. "If he treated me like this twenty years ago, or even ten years ago, I would have found a way to kill him. But now... Alas! We are all old. After so many years, no one can be with Katarina... Forget it, we won't live much longer, so why kill each other!"

Elizabeth was speechless. Carrie actually knew what Reddington was thinking. Is this the tacit understanding between men?
-
Let Gina and Elizabeth go to rest, and Carrie and Reddington seriously discussed the follow-up plan, especially his previous idea about the secret society - after rescuing Kirk, let him join the secret society, cooperate with Fitch, fully control the organization, and let it serve them.

Reddington was stunned at first, then happy. This plan was something he had never thought of. After thinking quickly, he said, "Lee, this is a good idea, but the premise is that Kirk must be rescued...

"If we find Dr. Bloom, but she can't save Kirk, then we can only rely on your life-saving red bottle. But you also said that this method requires Kirk to trust you..."

"Yes, that's right." Kerry nodded, "But now things have made some progress, and with Liz's persuasion, we should be able to reach mutual trust before the final time. It will take some time."
