181: He is a hero
"Exactly! If I had a good dad, I could effortlessly get an appointment with a big shot like that!"
Everyone spoke one after another, showing their clear dissatisfaction with the big shot specifically seeing Su Yue.
Many nurses nearby didn't know what was going on, so they stood silently to the side, observing discreetly.
"Oh, isn't that Old Master Ye? I heard he's already retired and enjoying his grandchildren. How did he get called over to serve this rich young masters? Tsk tsk, this person is really something!"
"I heard Old Master Ye's consultation fee is tens of thousands! This kid is really rich!"
"Aren't those the Old Master Ye who specialized in researching the black scale disease? Why are they here? Could it be that there's a new discovery about this condition?"
"I heard the previous special medicine was fake. I wonder if this group of Old Master Ye can develop a proper special medicine to save us!"
Everyone spoke one after another, their conversation shifting from complaining about how money makes the world go round to finally gathering together to look forward to the future. It must be said, this group's topic-hopping ability is quite high.
And those doctors, upon seeing Su Yue, immediately greeted him very seriously. They didn't hide the excitement and eagerness in their eyes, wishing they could grab Su Yue and thoroughly research him.
"Everyone, you don't need to be so excited, you're making me quite scared."
Su Yue gave a helpless bitter smile. He hadn't expected this group of people to get this worked up.
"Let's go, let's go! We've already prepared a room for you. We're just waiting for you to check in now!"
"That's right, this is the first time we've encountered a situation like yours, so we're inevitably a bit excited. We hope you can understand the thoughts of us old doctors!"
"This is essentially like being directly bitten by the pathogen! That sounds a bit too astonishing!"
Everyone was extremely excited inside. They even hoped that through this investigation and analysis, they could develop a proper special medicine.
Su Yue knew that he had now become a Xia Ruoyun rat, but he didn't think this identity was a big deal.
If he could really help develop an antidote for everyone based on himself, then it wouldn't necessarily be a bad thing.
"Everyone, calm down. I'm a living person right here, so there's no way I'll run away."
Everyone crowded around Su Yue and went directly to the isolation ward on the top floor. This entire floor was dedicated to the black scale disease.
There were quite a few isolated patients here. Su Yue hadn't expected the hospital to be so generous as to open up an entire floor.
He had originally thought the ward he stayed in at the isolation hotel was already very luxurious, but seeing this today, it was truly a case of the lesser seeing the greater.
He finally understood what true luxury was!
Chu Xuemei did keep her promise. As soon as he checked in, a professional doctor came over to give him a detailed physical examination.
The wounds on Su Yue's body were very obvious, visible bite marks from an animal.
"It looks like your wounds were caused by something like a rat, right?" While the doctor was examining him, Chu Xuemei wasn't idle and kept watching from the side.
She naturally also wanted to know exactly what happened.
"Your wounds look like superficial injuries; they haven't affected the root. Your luck is quite good."
Chu Xuemei felt a chill in her heart seeing the dense wounds on his hand. Although they were just superficial injuries, they looked quite frightening. Even after being a doctor for so many years, she couldn't help but feel a bit unnerved.
It was almost hard to imagine what they had gone through in that place.
"If they're just superficial injuries, then it's not a big deal."
Su Yue also breathed a sigh of relief. This would make things easier to explain to the other side.
He knew that the company was very worried about his condition right now.
"We have arranged a professional team to come and study your wounds, equipped with the most professional equipment. The report and testing speed are top-notch, so you can rest assured."
Su Yue gave a helpless bitter smile, "Okay, thank you all for your hard work."
He cooperated fully, lifting his arm and waiting for blood to be drawn. As a qualified Xia Ruoyun rat, he knew exactly what he should do.
Meanwhile, there were various opinions circulating in the hospital.
Many people felt that Su Yue was someone who had special privileges. They were all muttering and cursing on the side, thinking this person wasn't any good.
"Did you see that? This guy is really something, being escorted up like that!"
"I saw it! He was sent to a private ward! It seems it's a special VIP large ward reserved just for him. This person is really lucky!"
"You can only say people have different fates. We work hard our whole lives and can't afford to stay in a ward like that, yet he can be sent there as soon as he gets sick. Isn't that just too fortunate?"
"Even seeing a doctor has special privileges like this. How are the rest of us supposed to live?"
All the patients heard the commotion here. After listening to these elderly men and women talk, they all knew what was happening here.
Those with better manners didn't curse directly but couldn't help but speak sarcastically.
And those with poor manners had already started cursing loudly. They didn't care about all these unnecessary things; they just wanted to curse!
Originally, no one was paying attention to their situation until the doctor responsible for receiving Su Yue just now passed by and heard what was being said here. Only then did he stop.
He frowned and glanced at the group of people talking. What they were saying was indeed very impolite.
"Everyone, you shouldn't eat indiscriminately, and you definitely shouldn't speak indiscriminately. Some things are not as you perceive them."
He wasn't too willing to explain anything to everyone, so he just offered a reminder and turned to leave.
Unexpectedly, an old man leaning on a cane angrily chased after him.
"How are we speaking indiscriminately? Didn't we see all of this with our own eyes?"
"That man is at most in his early 20s, right? Could it be that he's someone who has made some great contribution to society, requiring him to have such special privileges?"
"Normally, we can't even get an appointment with those doctors, yet now so many doctors are gathered together just to treat him alone?"
Everyone's emotions were stirred up. Even if it was the black scale disease, it shouldn't be like this, right?
The doctor was furious when he heard their insults and slanders against Su Yue.
He stomped his foot, not quite knowing what to say.
Because he didn't know if the information about Su Yue could be made public, at this moment, he was like someone who had eaten bittercabbage, unable to speak of his suffering.
Just then, a doctor responsible for this operation walked over from the side.

"Dr. Li, you've come at the right time. You're also in charge of this hospital. Why don't you explain to us what's going on here?"
"I saw that kid's wounds looked like he was scratched by a cat. You still need to arrange so many doctors to treat him. If you ask me, just grab him and give him a rabies shot and be done with it!"
The old man had a relentless attitude, seeming to want the other person to give a clear explanation; otherwise, he wouldn't let them leave.
"Since you want to know so much, I don't mind telling you the whole story."
Su Yue's matter had already been reported in the news, so there was no need to hide it at all.
"The gentleman who was just sent over is not someone with power or influence. He is just an ordinary person. However, because the wounds on him were caused by a pathogenic rat, it may involve the original strain, which is a very important direction for our research."
"Not many people have come into contact with the pathogenic strain. He is someone who was relatively lucky to have been exposed and also survived, so he is a very good experimental material."
"We shouldn't insult him for occupying social resources. Instead, we should thank him for being willing to offer himself for experiments at the hospital. If a related special medicine can truly be developed, he will definitely have a share of the credit."
As soon as he finished speaking, the young people also understood what he meant and couldn't help but lower their heads in shame.
They really hadn't expected things to turn out this way.
They had originally thought it was some rich young masters occupying medical resources, but now they realized that he was a hero who voluntarily offered himself as experimental material.
Those who understood felt very ashamed. They couldn't even imagine how they should face him.
"Fortunately, I didn't say those nasty things in front of him. I retract, I retract!"
"So, after all that, he's actually a hero, not a profligate young masters! I don't know who was spreading rumors!"
"If you ask me, it's that old man talking nonsense. They were just so self-righteous!"
Someone directly blamed the old man for the situation. They felt it was too much for him to insult others without knowing the truth.
The old man hadn't expected this situation either, and his expression was a bit ugly.
But he still stubbornly muttered, "How come no one else encountered a rat with the original strain, but he was so unlucky to? Who knows what he did?"
Just then, a news report suddenly interrupted on the hospital's large TV screen.
"We interrupt for a social news report."
"Police have busted a secret virus laboratory, successfully apprehending several criminals. This police-civilian cooperation was very successful. The capture of the suspects is thanks to relevant information provided by a concerned citizen and their brave efforts."
"The experimental animals from the virus laboratory are currently under control. If citizens find any suspicious animals, they can call the following number for help. A reward of 5,000 cash will be given upon verification!"
After broadcasting the news report, a video of the On-site arrest (on-site capture) was quickly played.
People saw Su Yue in the video.
"Wow! Is that young man in the black shirt the one from just now?"
"I just took a picture. I was planning to post it online to complain, but I didn't expect it to be useful now."
"Quick, quick, quickly get your picture out so we can take a look!"
Everyone urged the person who had taken the photo to quickly get it out so they could compare it properly.
The person's movements weren't slow; they found the photo in just a few moments.
"Oh my gosh, isn't that the same person?"
"So, he's the concerned citizen who helped dismantle this place?"
"I suddenly feel so embarrassed. How could I just casually badmouth someone? This is terrible!"
"Now I just want to go apologize to him. I misunderstood him!"
Everyone spoke one after another. The doctor Li next to them also sighed helplessly. Su Yue was almost wronged.
He felt that Su Yue was a very great person, so he was somewhat unable to accept the fact that he was almost wronged.
Now that the truth was revealed, he felt much better.
"Now that you know the truth, don't spread rumors about him anymore. Not only did he get injured for the sake of research, but he was even willing to offer himself for our experiments so that everyone can better understand the relevant condition. Such a person is very great!"
The old man standing next to him with a cane also felt guilty. He couldn't help but raise his hand and slap his own face.
"Oh, my mouth, it's really cheap! How could I say bad things about him?"
Just moments ago, he was still constantly speaking ill of others, but now he was slapped in the face quite severely.
Su Yue didn't know what was happening here, but even if he did, he wouldn't care. He wasn't someone who cared much about his reputation. The pure remain pure, and the turbid remain turbid.
He wasn't interested in any of it; he just wanted to quickly drive the disgusting black scale disease out of the world.
He knew everything took time.
He just hoped these medical staff could be more capable and develop an antidote for the virus as soon as possible.
After the doctors finished the examination and left, Su Yue lay on the bed feeling relieved.
He suddenly remembered a very important question.
His left hand!
Presumably, Liang Yuzhu had already informed the others about this matter. He wondered what their plans would be after he was discharged from the hospital?
Thinking of this made Su Yue feel a headache. He simply opened his phone and scrolled through Weibo.
Just then, a WeChat message popped up.
"You're too disloyal! You were discharged so quickly. I thought we could fight together until the end!"
This was a message from Xia Ruoyun. Su Yue could picture her tone just from reading the text.
"Maybe my condition is more serious, so I was taken away for individual examination."
Su Yue replied. He was about to close his phone and rest his eyes, but he didn't expect the other party's reply to come even faster.
"Alright then, do you want to have dinner together after you're discharged in a while?"
"I still have a lot of gossip to tell you!"
Su Yue wasn't interested in the entertainment industry, but he did have some thoughts about the content Xia Ruoyun mentioned.
Based on his intuition, he vaguely felt there was something wrong with the entertainment industry.
