   Let me share my thoughts on this book. I initially saw it on Douyin (TikTok) and saw that the comment section was full of medical students, so I came to check it out out of curiosity (I'm a medical student myself). At first, I was genuinely shocked by the author's incredible professional knowledge! (I was just slacking off in class). Every character felt very vivid, and there weren't any forced or abrupt plot lines. Every twist and turn was surprising. At first, I wondered if I could do the same if I had that knowledge, but then I gradually realized the differences between people. I couldn't understand it anymore; I needed the author to reveal the secrets (I'm just too slow). Each case felt very relevant to the events of that time, and the author was very outspoken. The ending left me with a normal sense of regret, quite realistic. It's really good!

   I was deeply grateful to the boatman for taking me in and followed him home. His house was close to the ferry, so we arrived quickly. The house was very dilapidated, the fence collapsed, vegetables grew in the yard, and a pile of smelly fishing nets lay on one side. The boatman's wife came out, initially smiling, but her expression changed instantly upon seeing me. She grabbed a broom and started hitting the boatman, yelling, "You heartless bastard! I'm working myself to the bone at home, and you're out there keeping a vixen! How can you face me and the kids? No man is any good!" The boatman ducked into the vegetable patch, grabbed the broom, and yelled at her. Only then did she drop the broom and squat down, crying. After the boatman explained, she believed him, smiled, apologized, and pulled me into the house, her warmth overwhelming me. She poured hot water, got clothes, and said, "Girl, quickly change your clothes, don't catch a cold." I went inside to change, when suddenly I was bound, my mouth was gagged, and ropes were tied around my body. I heard the boatman shout, "Mother of my child, come in quickly, I'm tied up!" They locked me in the woodshed while the boatman went to find a slave trader. I struggled desperately, but the rope tightened more and more, chafing my wrists and causing excruciating pain. Remembering my experience of being caged by the butcher, I trembled with fear, leaning against the pile of firewood, staring into the dark woodshed, filled with despair. As darkness fell, my fear deepened. After what seemed like an eternity, the door opened, and the fat woman entered with the boatman and his wife. The fat woman shone a lantern on me for a long time, saying, "This girl is fair-skinned and pretty. How much do you want to sell her for?" After discussing it, they said ten taels. The fat woman sneered and turned away, but the boatman grabbed her and tried to bargain, saying I was beautiful and would be valuable after being trained. The fat woman scoffed, "Can a person be compared to a horse? Raising people is not easy, give me the real price!" The boatman held up five fingers: "Five taels, five taels will do!" In the end, I was sold, for an unknown amount of silver, and taken away by the fat woman. As the carriage entered the city, I was tied to the carriage and swayed all the way. Finally, I was thrown into a small dark room. The future was pitch black, and fear overwhelmed me. I didn't know where fate would take me or if there would be any chance to escape my misfortune. I was filled with confusion and helplessness, and all that was left was silent sobbing and desperate waiting.
