Elder brother's garrison

Page 2523

Before Xiaobai and his two companions even arrived at their destination, they saw a bright red banner still hanging at the entrance of the People's Hospital. Many people, with their families, were gathered together, waving signs or placards at the hospital.

"Huh? Is it so lively at the hospital?" Xiaobai looked at the crowd at the hospital entrance with some surprise.

“It’s been like this a lot ever since you came here last time,” Nanxing explained to Xiaobai.

"What does this have to do with me?" Xiaobai pointed to himself, looking completely innocent.

"Hmm..." Nanxing seemed to be thinking about how to answer Xiaobai's question. She paused for a moment and pointed to the signs on the people with their families. "Look at what those signs say."

Xiao Bai looked in the direction Nan Xing was pointing. She stared intently and saw that the banners and signs were filled with a series of phrases that were half praise and half pleading, such as "Dr. Bai's miraculous healing skills bring people back to health," "Professor Bai's compassionate healing," and "I earnestly request Professor Bai to personally save my family."

Xiao Bai stopped walking, her expression quite peculiar, and turned to look at Nan Xing.

"Sister Nanxing... these people... are they after me?"

"Mm." Nanxing nodded.

"why?"

“You once saved a severely infected person from the deep-sea aura at the hospital, which has a very special significance in human society,” Nanxing said to Xiaobai. “Although, out of consideration for your wishes, the hospital didn’t spend a lot of manpower and resources to publicize this achievement, your information as a professor was still dug up online. So now… because of your past intervention, this hospital has become the most authoritative, prestigious, and top-tier hospital in the world for treating deep-sea infection cases. Every day, many patients with deep-sea infection symptoms come from all over the world, wanting to spend a lot of money to have you treat them and restore their health.”

"Huh... is the impact that big?" Xiaobai asked back.

"It is very big."

"I have no idea..." Xiaobai looked at the hospital entrance and murmured softly, "Since so many patients infected by the deep-sea aura have come, why didn't I receive any messages from you before?"

“Most of these patients infected with deep-sea aura only have mild symptoms. They come to you not because only you can save them, but because they feel you are incredibly capable and they trust you more… Even if you don’t take action, this hospital’s medical resources are sufficient to handle most patients,” Nanxing said. “Patients with severe deep-sea aura infection, like the ones you treated before, are actually very rare here.”

Chapter 3533 Super Infected

Xiao Bai's curiosity was satisfied after listening to Nan Xing's words.

"I see. It seems that Uncle and Aunt have been quite busy lately." Xiao Bai's gaze swept over the patients at the hospital entrance. The Admiral Network was secretly activated, and countless invisible mental tentacles spread out, probing the crowd and briefly checking the amount of deep-sea energy in their bodies.

indeed.

The facts are exactly as Nanxing just said.

The patients holding signs at the hospital entrance actually have very low concentrations of deep-sea aura in their bodies. Even if Xiao Bai doesn't intervene, this level of deep-sea aura infection can be treated without much problem by the hospital's expertise.

Xiao Bai was relieved.

Xiao Bai doesn't have the ability to create clones; although her time is flexible, it is still limited.

If even patients of this severity require Xiaobai's personal intervention to cure, given the sheer number of such patients, she might as well give up being an admiral and just sit in the hospital and enjoy working overtime.

"Let's not go through the front door, let's go in through the back door," Nanxing said to Xiaobai.

"Okay, sure." Xiaobai nodded, subconsciously leaning towards Nanxing.

Xiao Bai and his two companions bypassed the crowd and headed towards the back entrance of the hospital.

As the three of them were bypassing the hospital gate, a small number of the patients waiting at the hospital entrance also noticed Xiaobai and his companions.

"Hey! Look, those three people seem to be heading towards the back entrance of the hospital!"

Some sharp-eyed people immediately pointed to the figures of Xiaobai and his two companions.

"What? Where?"

"I heard that several patients with severe infections have been admitted to the hospital these past few days, and now a bunch of people are waiting for Dr. Bai to make a move! Can you see that over there, isn't that Dr. Bai?!"

Everyone's eyes lit up as they looked in the direction where Xiaobai was.

But after getting a general idea of ​​what Xiaobai and the other two looked like, everyone's gaze quickly turned disappointed.

"Oh, I thought it was someone else."

"The one over there... sigh, never mind, it's impossible."

"Huh? What's wrong? How can it be impossible?"

"Weren't those three young girls walking by? They are pretty, but nowadays, doctors aren't the kind of bald, middle-aged men or old men with white hair and beards. Can you feel safe with them?"

"Forehead……"

"The White-Haired Doctor must be a venerable old man with a long white beard, only then would he be worthy of his superb medical skills!"

"That's right."

"Those three are probably family members of hospital staff."

"should be……"

The crowd muttered calmly, their gazes returning to the hospital entrance, as they vigorously waved the banners and signs in their hands once more.

"Dr. Bai! Look at us!"

……

Xiao Bai and his two companions entered the hospital smoothly through the back door.

As soon as they entered the hospital, the security guards who were standing near the back door came running when they heard the noise. They originally wanted to drive away Xiaobai and the other two, but as soon as they saw Nanxing's face, they immediately put on respectful and friendly smiles and came over.

"Miss Nanxing, you've arrived."

"Yes, I'm here to find my mom and dad," Nanxing nodded to the security guards.

"Alright, the head nurse just told us to let you know if we see Miss Nanxing. They're waiting for you on the sixth floor, in the Deep Sea Infection Layer!"

"I'll go right away."

Nanxing briefly spoke to the security guards, who then watched Xiaobai and the other two go upstairs with respectful, even obsequious, expressions. They didn't even ask about the identities of Xiaobai and Chao Yamato beside Nanxing from beginning to end; the trust they exuded was palpable.

Xiao Bai followed Nan Xing upstairs with a sense of novelty, glancing back at the bowing security guards.

The communication between the Admiral Circle and human society is one-way and isolated. Human society can hardly find out anything about the Admiral Circle. Therefore, the fact that Nanxing is a top ten Admiral is probably unknown not only to the hospital staff, but even to her own parents.

This is part of a confidentiality agreement... Even a novice knows that.

Therefore, Nanxing was probably not treated this way by the security guards because of his status as one of the top ten admirals.

Xiaobai continued to think for a while. She looked at Nanxing's profile beside her and the framed photos of historical figures that flashed by on the wall upstairs. Suddenly, she had a flash of insight.

Oh……

correct.

Speaking of which, Nanxing's grandfather is the director of this hospital (although he went to work in Chapter 8), Nanxing's mother is the powerful head nurse in the hospital, and Nanxing's father is a highly trusted, skilled, and experienced chief physician in the hospital. He may even be the successor to the next director. So, as their descendant, Nanxing is practically the "princess" of this hospital in a sense... It's not a big problem that Nanxing is treated this way by the people in this hospital.

Xiao Bai smiled at Nan Xing's profile.

Nanxing sensed Xiaobai's smile and turned to look at Xiaobai with some confusion.

"what happened?"

"It's nothing, I just think you're pretty amazing, Sister Nanxing."

“…” Nanxing didn’t speak. She lowered her head and thought for a moment, then blurted out to Xiaobai, “Actually, you are more amazing.”

The three of them chatted as they walked, and soon arrived at the floor the security guards had mentioned.

Perhaps because the number of patients infected in the deep sea was indeed much higher than before, when Xiaobai and his two companions arrived here again, they only saw that the corridor was densely packed with people sitting, standing, and even lying down. The doors of the outpatient rooms in the corridor were open, and patients were going in and out. The sounds of the crowd were fragmented and noisy, like the endlessly rolling drum of a washing machine, and from time to time, the cries of babies could be heard from the crowd.

Xiao Bai and his two companions pushed open the door and walked into the corridor.

Xiaobai raised an eyebrow and looked around.

The concentration of deep-sea scent in the air seemed to be higher than when I last came here... Although it wasn't high enough to harm the human body, it was still a safety hazard.

Xiao Bai suppressed her thoughts and followed Nan Xing through the crowd, heading towards the stairs in the corridor.

After going up the stairs, the corridor above was much more spacious because there were no outpatient clinics. However, as Xiaobai and his two companions passed by the wards, they still saw many patients lying inside receiving intravenous drips.

Xiao Bai used the Admiral Network to investigate the condition of these patients. Most of them were infected with extremely small amounts of deep-sea aura, and even the most serious one was only infected to the point of just penetrating the skin and flesh.

However, just as Xiaobai was halfway through the investigation, he seemed to sense something and looked up ahead. He saw that at the very end of the corridor, in a special ward guarded by several nurses, even though the door appeared to be closed, a strong deep-sea aura was faintly emanating from inside.

hiss……

The patients this hospital accepts are either those with only minor issues, or those who have gotten themselves seriously injured...

The fact that it can release such a high concentration of deep-sea scent... the patients inside must have been marinated in deep-sea aromas...

Xiao Bai thought to herself that she, Nan Xing, and Chao Dahe had already arrived at the door of the special ward.

When the nurses guarding the ward saw Nanxing, they were slightly taken aback and were about to bow when they saw her. But the next second, their gazes unconsciously shifted to Xiaobai's face, and their expressions immediately showed even more astonishment.

"Oh, Dr. Bai!"

"Dr. Bai, you've arrived!"

Some of the nurses had seen Xiaobai before, and as soon as they saw her arrive, they immediately understood the group's purpose.

Before Xiaobai and his group could speak, the nurses opened the door to the special ward for them and then looked at Xiaobai with eyes that seemed to be those of a savior.

"Dr. Bai, the head doctor and the head nurse have been waiting for you for a long time!"

"Come in quickly!"

call--

As the door to the special ward opened completely, an invisible aura of the deep sea rushed out.

Xiao Bai suddenly felt a little suffocated.

Although this deep-sea aura is nothing like the aura of the real ocean, it is still quite rare in human society.

Xiao Bai and his two companions entered the special ward.

The special ward contained only one bed, on which lay a thin, skeletal body, its body wrapped tightly in bandages, making it almost impossible to discern the patient's gender.

The patient, receiving an IV drip, lay quietly on the snow-white bedding and pillows. His head was wrapped in bandages, and the skin exposed beneath them was dry, charred, and even covered with deep grooves. His chest did not rise or fall; he was silent, as if he were sleeping, or as if he were dead.

It's more like a mummy than a person.

The life force emanating from this patient... has almost been completely corroded away by the aura of the deep sea.

Upon seeing the patient's appearance, Xiaobai instinctively covered her mouth.

Good guy!

The infectious power of this deep-sea aura is quite potent...

Although the infection level is much milder than that of Admiral Haoding and Nanxing, who swallowed deep-sea metal, among ordinary people in human society, this kind of deep-sea infection is practically a death sentence...

When Xiaobai entered the ward, two people wearing white coats stood up in the corner of the ward.

"Admiral Lu Lin, you've arrived."

Nanxing's parents seemed to have been waiting here for a long time, especially Nanxing's father. As soon as he saw Xiaobai, his previously furrowed brows immediately lit up with a bright smile.

"Uncle, I'm here." Xiaobai looked at Nanxing's father and smiled at him. "Before I came, Sister Nanxing told me what I needed to do. You called me here to treat this patient in the bed, right?"

"Ah...yes." Nanxing's father stopped walking towards Xiaobai. His face was complicated and embarrassed, as if he felt sorry for his lack of ability. He looked at the hospital bed for a while, and then sighed helplessly, "This patient...as you can see, with the current level of our hospital, we really can't handle it...we can't even just delay the disease. We really have no other choice but to ask you to come."

Given the current level of medical technology in human society, delaying moderate deep-sea aura infections and treating mild deep-sea aura infections is indeed the limit.

For deep-sea infections of this severity, which have even penetrated to the bone marrow, hospitals are completely helpless.

In particular, ordinary humans do not have the protection of the Admiral Network, and their resistance to the aura of the deep sea is extremely poor, so the possibility and feasibility of treatment are many times lower.

To be honest, even though Nanxing's parents found Xiaobai, they were still pessimistic about whether Xiaobai could cure this deep-sea infected person who was already on the verge of death.

Calling Xiaobai again was probably just a doctor's instinctive rescue habit, and a last-ditch effort before giving up.

After all, Xiaobai had indeed performed miracles before their eyes.

“Little Lu Lin, can you help your uncle?” Nan Xing’s mother walked over and smiled at Xiao Bai, but her expression was more like that of someone who was sad and distressed. “If even you think that this level of injury is too much to handle… don’t force yourself. Just tell Auntie directly. We’ve made the necessary preparations.”

"Auntie, don't worry, this is no problem," Xiaobai said immediately without thinking.

"..."

The atmosphere in the special ward froze for a moment.

Then, Nanxing's father and mother's eyes lit up at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Really? Is it okay?"

Chapter 3534 Divine Doctor! A divine doctor indeed!

Nanxing's parents looked at Xiaobai with an instant feeling of being extremely flattered.

This time, when they asked Nanxing to call Xiaobai, they didn't really have much hope that Xiaobai could completely cure the patient. After all, the patient's condition was far too serious. It was as if the patient had fallen into a vat of deep-sea fumes, and the degree of deep-sea infection far exceeded that of any patient they had encountered before.

Even if Xiaobai has superb medical skills, there must be a limit, right?
