Basil Jaak drove out alone and came to a stop in front of a medical hall in the East Street area of East Sea City, called "First-rate Medical Hall".
This was a traditional Chinese medicine hall, comprising four connected storefronts covering an area of over six hundred square meters. The gilded characters for "First-rate Medical Hall" on the signboard above the main entrance shone brilliantly.
Basil Jaak had read about First-rate Medical Hall in the newspaper. At that time, it was said that although the herbal medicines were effective, their prices were exorbitantly high, so it was a medical hall that only the wealthy could afford to visit.
Of course, it wasn't its high prices that got First-rate Medical Hall featured in the newspaper – after all, selecting any hospital at random for a minor cold could easily result in medical fees in the hundreds – which wasn't uncommon.
What truly made First-rate Medical Hall famous in the newspaper was its owner – Clark.
