Smile, turn around, and run away! Lu Chen finished all this with the child's smile on his face. He left the ward, not to announce that the child would pass away like this, but to bring the child back from the brink of death.
Lu Chen rushed straight into the Chinese medicine dispensary like crazy. Obviously, Lu Chen knew more about Chinese medicine than Western medicine. After all, the elixirs he practiced were all extracted from Chinese medicinal materials.
The problem is that there is no shortage of all the medicinal materials in this traditional Chinese medicine pharmacy, only the important medicine thyme is missing. Lu Chen didn't think much about it. If it is missing, it will be missing. Although there is no medicine thyme, this medicine can probably make the child happy.
If he survives this damn night, coupled with his inner breath, he may be able to save this child's life.
The pharmacist on one side was on duty and watched Lu Chen frantically searching the medicine box with his mouth open. It seemed that Lu Chen could identify the medicine just by its scent, because at this time, the lights in the entire pharmacy had been turned off.
Regardless of whether there was anyone next to him, Lu Chen found the alchemy shop, found the medicine furnace and hurriedly started refining it. In order to speed up the elixir refining, Lu Chen fanned the fire while constantly paying attention to the flames and the medicine furnace.
Infuriating.
Naturally, in the eyes of outsiders, this true energy cannot be seen, but the flame is obviously much higher than usual. It actually wraps the entire medicine furnace in the middle. However, the medicine used for refining is just ordinary gas, which is
This would not be the case even if the flames were turned on to the maximum. Moreover, the aroma of the medicine in the medicine furnace was even more intense, wrapping up the entire alchemy.
With a click, the medicine stove originally made of ceramics finally couldn't withstand the test of the fire and cracked. Lu Chen directly stretched out his hand into the fire and held a dark pill in the palm of his hand. He was under the flames.
At this time, the whole person was sweating profusely and his face turned pale. It was obviously due to excessive consumption that his physical strength was a little exhausted.
Walking out of the alchemy, Lu Chen felt dizzy and almost stumbled to his knees. But he knew that he had no time to stop and rest. The child was still in the gate of hell. He didn't know where he got the strength.
He stood holding on to the wall and walked towards the child's ward step by step with difficulty.
The atmosphere in the ward became more solemn, but there was still no news from the child's family. During the anxious waiting, the child's condition further deteriorated, and it was already too late to enter the operating room.
Dr. Li sighed heavily. Looking at the child on the hospital bed, he could do nothing. He had already done what he had to do. Seeing the child's heartbeat on the meter continuously weakening, Dr. Li already knew the outcome of the matter.
Lu Chen walked to the bedside with difficulty. The other doctors didn't notice him at all. Finally Lu Chen slowly knelt down.
The child also saw Lu Chen coming back again, and his eyes were about to close in a daze, but he gave Lu Chen a smile with difficulty again. His little hand restlessly raised to wipe the dense beads of sweat on Chen Lu's forehead.
But he didn't have the energy to do this at all.
"Eat it, and you will get better." Lu Chen's voice was very weak, so weak that only the child could hear it. Without hesitation, he put the black elixir to the child's mouth.
The child looked a little confused, but he still opened his mouth without hesitation. Taking this opportunity, Lu Chen directly stuffed the pill into the child's mouth. After watching the child's throat squirm with difficulty, Lu Chen finally collapsed due to exhaustion.
Beside the hospital bed.
"What did he feed the child?" At this time, a sharp-eyed nurse noticed this and asked with some confusion.
Everyone's eyes were focused on Lu Chen again. Now Lu Chen had passed out and had no reaction at all.
Dr. Li was shocked when he saw Lu Chen lying unconscious on the hospital bed. If he had any shortcomings, how should he explain it to the dean. He quickly laid Lu Chen flat on another hospital bed next to him and began to carefully
Check it out.
Fortunately, he was just exhausted and fell into a coma, so it was nothing serious. His worried heart finally fell to the ground. Before Dr. Li could figure out why Lu Chen was exhausted, the bad news came again.
"Beep!" came the annoying sound from the heartbeat monitor.
"Doctor, the child's heartbeat has stopped. Do we need to use a pacemaker?" At this time, the assistant doctor seemed to have not given up hope of saving the child.
"Forget it. Let him go. It's better than suffering this kind of pain again." Dr. Li sighed. He comes into contact with this kind of patients every day and knows the pain. Maybe for these patients, death is a kind of pain.
Relief. After all, their situation is worse than death.
Everyone sighed. Naturally, their thoughts were similar to Dr. Li's. It's not that they didn't want to save the child. But thinking about it, even if they were rescued, the child would still be in endless pain. In the end, he would still be on the road of no return.
.
The nurse pulled the white sheet and prepared to cover the child's still smiling face. She felt extremely unbearable but the fact was already in front of her eyes.
"Wait!" At this time, the assistant doctor discovered something unusual, and ripples flashed in the heartbeat monitor.
"She's still alive!" The assistant doctor almost jumped up because of the accident when her heartbeat slowly recovered and was close to a normal heartbeat.
"The number of platelets is increasing, but there are still problems with the hematopoietic function. It is still increasing! It is higher than the normal value!" A nurse's expression turned from surprise to surprise, and finally to shock!
"Is this...is this a miracle?" Looking at the strange data report, Dr. Li's expression changed from surprise to shock. The cancer cells were not eliminated from the child's body, but what happened to the sudden increase in platelets?
thing.
"Dr. Li, the platelets are now in a stable state. Although they are slightly lower than the normal value, they don't seem to be decreasing anymore."
"Could it be that you ate that person's food and became like this?" A nurse looked at Lu Chen suspiciously and subconsciously expressed her inner guess.
Everyone's eyes were focused on Lu Chen again. Could it be that this kid had a unique secret recipe for treating incurable diseases? According to the current situation, everything that happened must be related to what Lu Chen fed him.
The answer to everything can only be known when Lu Chen wakes up.
In a daze, Lu Chen rubbed his head and climbed up from the hospital bed. He didn't know if he had a dream yesterday, but feeling that the inner breath in his body had not returned to a full state, Lu Chen knew that yesterday's
Things really happened before our eyes.
"What's wrong with me? Is my head hot?" Lu Chen patted his forehead, not knowing what was going on with his sudden and inexplicable behavior yesterday.
"Brother, are you awake?" Lu Chen was still in a daze when a childish voice brought him back to reality.
"Are you alive?" Although Lu Chen's words were not very pleasant, they reflected what he wanted to know most.
"The candies my brother gave me weren't very tasty, but after eating them I didn't feel any pain. It's strange." Although the child is still a little bald, his face is not as pale as yesterday, which seems rare.
I saw a trace of blood.
"Candy? Haha!" Lu Chen was a little dumbfounded. He felt that the elixir he had spent so much energy on didn't taste very good.
"Isn't it?" The child looked at Lu Chen innocently.
"Yes, don't look at me with such innocent eyes. I can't stand this. This pill, well, this candy can only protect you for a while, but it can't protect you for life. It's none of my business how you like it in the future.
"Lu Chen didn't get a moment's sense of accomplishment because he saved this child. He didn't know why he could be so hot-headed and look at such things that were harmful to himself. Obviously he couldn't get any benefits from this child.
Obviously, I was thankless for what happened last night.
"What is a moment and what is a lifetime?" Obviously the child's cultural level was not up to what Chase Lu was telling her, and she couldn't understand such profound words at all.
"Okay, to put it bluntly, the pain in your body will come back after a while." Lu Chen explained helplessly.
"Don't be afraid. My brother is by my side. As long as you give me more candies, I will be fine." The child said innocently.
Lu Chen almost spat out a mouthful of blood. This child couldn't be dependent on him! It wouldn't be a good thing to have such a sick child! Lu Chen's sympathy has not yet overflowed to the extent of seeing a child with a terminal illness.
Reach out for help.
"Don't call me brother, I'm not your brother." Lu Chen's face was serious. It was better to clear the relationship quickly at this time. It would not be a good thing if someone was blackmailing him.
It's not that Lu Chen didn't want to save her, but he didn't have that important medicine at all. It was impossible to eradicate the root cause of the child's disease. He also tried boldly yesterday, but he didn't expect that he could really stabilize the condition. But obviously this would cost a lot of money.
Lu Chen didn't want to destroy his body because of his energy and inner energy.
Those who do not do it for themselves will be punished by heaven and earth! Lu Chen naturally firmly believes in this truth. Lu Chen would not mind if he could easily make elixirs to stabilize his condition, but now it is obvious that his body cannot withstand such a baptism. It is better not to cause trouble for himself.
, now my own affairs have not been settled smoothly.
"I don't know. When I saw my brother, I felt that you were so kind, just like my brother. So I called you brother. Brother won't be angry." The child's eyes were wide, and his pitiful appearance made anyone
There is no way to resist.
"Okay! You have learned how to flatter someone at such a young age? But these words are quite pleasant." Lu Chen also secretly enjoyed the child's words, obviously it was not a compliment.
“What does Zhongting mean?”
"It means you have a sweet mouth."
"But I ate your candy yesterday, and now my mouth is still bitter."
"Okay, I admit that I lost!" Lu Chen had the urge to hit a wall. Sure enough, he couldn't show off his literary skills when communicating with children!
"I didn't play games with my brother, how could he lose?"
"Ah!" Lu Chen grabbed his hair. Lu Chen had no way to explain the logic of his words after offending such an innocent child.
Although the child's condition has temporarily stabilized, the cancer cells in her body have not been contained after all. So she was not discharged from the hospital, but stayed in the hospital for continued observation. Besides, her family members have not yet appeared.
Lu Chen was not in the mood to talk nonsense with a child. He was probably tired. The child climbed back onto the hospital bed and went to sleep. Lu Chen also arranged his hospital gown and returned to his ward. There were important people to meet today.
of.
Enjoying the unusually warm sunshine in the afternoon, Lu Chen welcomed the first visitor of the day.
"Hello, are you Mr. Lu Chen? My name is Zhu Wanxin, and I am your attorney." A man in his thirties, wearing a crisp gray suit and carrying a brown office bag, walked into Lu Chen's room.
Ward.
"Hello, Lawyer Zhu!" Although it was a bit awkward to say hello, Lu Chen couldn't find any other way to say hello.
"Okay, I'll get straight to the point. The client has told me this case in detail. Naturally, I will vigorously defend you. Although I advocate a guilty plea, after all, all the evidence is against you. That's okay.
I will appropriately reduce your sentence, and since you want to plead not guilty, I will do my best."
"Lawyer Zhu spoke very straightforwardly. Yes, all the evidence in this matter is against me, but I can be sure that the victim did not die in my hands at all." Lu Chen said confidently.
"Oh, is that so? To be honest, I don't really care about whether you killed the person. What I do is to find all the evidence that may be helpful for our defense of innocence." Zhu Wanxin's face was not moved at all by Lu Chen's confidence.
.
Lu Chen didn't expect that this lawyer was quite professional. He probably only cared about how much he received and how much effort he put in. As for whether the criminal suspect really did this thing, he didn't care at all.
Although Lu Chen was a little unimpressed by Zhu Wanxin's attitude, after all, this person came here to help him, so he quickly informed him of possible favorable conditions.
"You mean there was a third person at the crime scene, and the witness was an old man." Zhu Wanxin carefully wrote down any conditions that were beneficial to them.
While the two people were still looking for information related to the case that would be helpful for the defense of innocence, another person walked into the room at this time.
He was wearing a serious black suit with a white shirt underneath. He casually unbuttoned the two buttons on the collar, a professional black knee-length skirt, and a national emblem on his plump chest. No need to think that this was the second guest, Lu
The prosecutor of the dust case!
However, what Chase Chase didn't expect was that the prosecutor was actually a woman, and she looked to be only 27 or 28 years old. Such a young person actually took the position of prosecutor. There must be some strong backing.
"Why is it you?" The female prosecutor walked into the room and shouted in surprise before even looking at Chen Lu.
Obviously this was not talking to Lu Chen, but to Lawyer Zhu who was beside Chen Lu's bedside.
"Hello, Prosecutor Hong." The lawyer still had a calm look on his face. He didn't feel a bit strange about Prosecutor Hong's arrival. Obviously he already knew the prosecutor, and he didn't even stand up to say hello to Prosecutor Hong.
the point.
"Okay mom, do you not care about your daughter's life or death? Do you know what happened last night?" Prosecutor Hong had already started to get angry. He did not treat Lu Chen as a bystander at all.
Wait, there seems to be something wrong with this. Lu Chen looked at Prosecutor Hong with a puzzled look on his face. Obviously, the two people did not just know each other, but they seemed to have some unexplainable relationship.
"Sorry, in a legal sense, although I am still Zhu Qingqing's father, I am only responsible for the living expenses. As for the life and death of my daughter, the responsibility may lie with you as the guardian." Lawyer Zhu's expression was not at all because of Prosecutor Hong.
If there is any change in his outburst, he always has a poker face.
What do you mean? The two people seem to be in a relationship, they should be divorced. After Lu Chen listened to lawyer Zhu's words, it seemed that the two of them had a love affair. But it seemed that Zhu Wanxin was indifferent to his daughter. Same thing.
As a man, Chase Lu felt that Zhu Wanxin's attitude was too much. After all, he was his own flesh and blood!
However, Lu Chen did not interrupt, because now it seemed that his identity was only the defendant in this case, and the family affairs of the two of them seemed to have nothing to do with him at all.
"You beast!" Prosecutor Hong's scolding immediately made Lu Chen's eyes light up. It turned out that such a serious job curse did not belong to those scolding shrews!
"Please be careful what you say, I can sue you for defamation!" Lawyer Zhu is indeed a lawyer who always talks about the law.
"You are the only one who understands the law? I am also a prosecutor! If you can, sue me, sue me!" Prosecutor Hong blushed, pointing at Lawyer Zhu and almost jumped up.
Provocation, this is a naked provocation! Lu Chen can’t stand it anymore, what are you doing? You really think I am blind and deaf!
"Ahem!" Lu Chen coughed awkwardly, reminding the two of them that there were still people present.
"Shut up!" The turning point of the bombardment actually came to Lu Chen. Lu Chen's good intentions were actually directly reprimanded, and naturally he felt unhappy.
"You two, you are here for my case. This is the hospital, not your home. If there is any family dispute, you can go home and discuss it slowly. I am not your punching bag!" Lu Chen said angrily.
One sentence.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Lu, I already understand what happened. So I won't disturb your rest." Lawyer Zhu directly picked up the briefcase and left the ward without looking back.
