Chapter 288: Driving the tiger away from the mountain
It was late at night. After a day of high-load operation, the Sino-Japanese cooperative hospital finally calmed down, like a physically and mentally exhausted worker. After returning home from get off work, he threw himself on the bed and fell into a deep sleep.
In the nurse's station outside the high-end ward, the two nurses on duty sat there quietly, flipping through the magazines in their hands boredly, maintaining silence in a tacit understanding, as if they had no intention of breaking the tranquility around them.
At this moment, the light above the head suddenly flashed twice, and then went out with a "pop", and the whole building fell into darkness.
However, the two nurses did not yell because of this. Instead, they seemed to have been accustomed to such emergencies. They calmly found a few candles from the drawer and lit them, and then continued to look through the things in their hands.
Magazine.
Little did they know that just as the two were rummaging for candles, a figure passed by them unnoticed and sneaked into the high-end ward quietly.
At this time, although Li Qiang's head was still wrapped with a thick bandage, he was still agile and did not look like a patient who had just suffered a severe head injury.
But just after he sneaked into the high-level ward, he did not take the next step immediately. Instead, he avoided the sight of the Japanese military police who were still guarding their posts even in the darkness and slipped in.
He walked into the only utility room in the ward and waited patiently.
About five minutes later, a loud shout suddenly rang out, "Who is that person?!"
Then a gunshot was heard, instantly breaking the tranquility of the hospital.
As soon as the Japanese military police who were still sticking to their posts heard the gunfire, they almost reflexively picked up their guns and rushed to support them. They didn't even notice a figure taking advantage of the chaos and rushing towards Xu He.
Run to the ward where you are.
What a coincidence, the person in charge of guarding the hospital tonight is none other than Takagi!
It was he who first discovered the suspicious person outside the hospital building, but he never expected that the person would pull out a gun and shoot him without saying a word.
Fortunately, I hid quickly and was still some distance away from the man, so I didn't get shot.
But when he saw the military police in the hospital all running over after hearing the gunfire, he immediately realized that he had been tricked!
"Baga! Who told you to leave your posts?" After giving the first captain-looking military policeman who ran in front of him a slap in the face, Takagi immediately led his people and arrived as quickly as possible.
Xu He's ward.
"Quick! Call the doctor!"
"But sir..."
"Pah!" Before the man could finish his words, he received another slap on the face.
"You bastard! Are you deaf? I want you to call the doctor, right now! Right now!"
After being slapped twice in succession, the gendarmerie captain did not dare to suggest any further meaning. He could only run to the doctor with his already swollen face...
Half an hour later, Nanzo Yunzi, who received the news, also hurried over.
"What's going on?" As soon as he entered Xu He's ward, Nan Zao Yunzi asked angrily with a gloomy face.
At this time, Takagi's face didn't look much better, but he still pointed at Xu He's neck, who was still lying on the hospital bed but had been dead for a long time.
Nan Zao Yunzi quickly took two steps and took a closer look. He took in a breath of cold air unconsciously and said to himself: "This poison needle... is him... it must be him, it can't be wrong!"
Bees...'poisonous bees' are back again!"
After saying that, he looked at Takagi aside again and cursed viciously: "You can't even protect yourself, you are incompetent!"
Takagi knew he was in the wrong, so he could only stand at attention, lower his head and admit his mistake, saying: "Hai!"
"And you guys!" Minamizo Yunzi pointed at the military police behind Takagi, "You are fooled by a mere tactic of diverting a tiger away from the mountain. It is a total embarrassment to the Imperial Army of Japan!"
In this way, the furious Nanzo Yunzi scolded them for half an hour, until his mouth was dry and he finally stopped.
At this moment, a man in a long gown, about forty years old, stood out from the crowd and came to Nanzo Yunzi.
Nan Zao Yunzi couldn't help but be startled when he saw the person coming, because the middle-aged man in front of him was none other than Dr. Chen Liren, the director of the traditional Chinese medicine department of the hospital.
Although Nanzo Yunzi has always been a strict and stern boss to his subordinates, he is still very polite when facing those talented people with real abilities.
So he suppressed the anger in his heart and said to him politely: "Is something wrong, Director Chen?"
"Oh, it's like this. Just before you came, I was asked by Mr. Takagi to carefully examine the deceased. I found that the poisonous thorn stuck in the neck of the deceased should have been smeared with a long-lost method.
The poison is called 'Wu Du Powder'."
"Wu Du Powder?"
"That's right! Wudu Powder, as the name suggests, is a compound poison that is refined by mixing five highly toxic poisons. Although the toxicity of each toxin will be weakened to varying degrees after refining, it will make people poisoned.
People suffer more in the process of death."
Chen Liren spoke eloquently, and Nan Zao Yunzi nodded frequently after hearing this, "Well, this is indeed in line with the lunatic's usual behavior. Since Director Chen knows so much about this poison, can he prescribe the right medicine and develop the corresponding antidote?
"
"Well..." Chen Liren said while stroking the goatee on his chin, "It's easier said than done! If you want to develop an antidote, the premise is to determine which five ingredients were used by the poisoner.
It is a highly toxic poison. As long as we understand this, it will be a piece of cake for Mr. Chen to develop and prepare an antidote."
"Okay! Director Chen, as long as you can successfully develop the antidote, it will be a great achievement, and the imperial army will definitely reward you!" After saying this, Nan Zao Yunzi turned to Takagi and said, "Mr. Takagi, bring someone with you immediately.
Go find me all the top Chinese medicine doctors in Shanghai and help Director Chen decipher the formula of 'Wu Du Powder'."
"Yes!" Takagi responded quickly, but just when he was about to take people away, he was stopped by Nanzo Yunzi.
"Wait a minute! Go and call me the doctor in charge of Aqiang who was sent here this morning! I have something to ask him."
"Yes!" Although he didn't know what kind of medicine Nanzo Yunzi sold in the gourd, Takagi still followed her instructions and called the people over.
