"Cough, cough... Ridou, don’t fight, Mr. Jin is good, is good..."
The white-haired elderly woman used all her strength to try to persuade her grandson not to act, but she coughed so severely that she couldn’t catch her breath and fainted on the spot.
"Grandma!"
"Doctor, please save her!"
A middle-aged woman hurriedly supported the elder, pushing aside Cui Ridou who ca running, crying and cursing, "You bastard! Grandma has had a fever and cough, struggling to breathe, and has been sick for so many days. How many tis have I called you, and you never answered. Do you know how hard it is to get masks now! Just like your gambling father, always too late. Get lost!"
Cui Ridou’s eyes reddened instantly, and he unexpectedly took off his mask to protect his mother’s face, "Mom, put it on quickly! Grandma is already infected, I can’t let you get infected too, put it on!"
"Move aside!" Gu Ji quickly stepped over.
Cui Ridou’s face changed imdiately, thinking soone was coming to hit him, and angrily shouted:
"Jin Zhijiu, what are you doing! I warn you, if you dare touch my family, I will fight you to the death!"
"You brat! This Mr. Jin just saved grandma, you ungrateful wretch!!"
Unexpectedly, the middle-aged woman gave Cui Ridou a hard slap.
It turned out that Cui Ridou’s grandmother was the Korean elderly woman who Gu Ji had just blocked the alcohol box for.
Hearing this, the hint of hostility in Cui Ridou’s eyes dissipated instantly. Seeing Gu Ji take out three dical masks from his pocket and hand them over, he opened his mouth but was at a loss for words, just awkwardly standing there.
Gu Ji, however, didn’t make eye contact with him, but lowered his gaze to the unconscious white-haired elderly woman.
"Where have you been or what patients have you been in contact with in the past 14 days?"
"Mr. Jin, Ridou’s grandmother has had heart problems and diabetes. She used to be treated at Shansang Hospital, but I heard that recently there have been many people with fever and cough there, so I thought of bringing her to AM Hospital since there’s a dedicated fever clinic..."
After hearing his mother’s description, Cui Ridou seed as if his soul had been hollowed out, collapsing instantly and looking ten years older.
He knew all too well that grandma definitely contracted RS.
But he never thought the place where grandma got infected was the Shansang Hospital where he had been helping all along!
"From the symptoms and epidemiological information, it ets the high suspicion standard for RS infection. Go queue for a PCR virus test."
"Mr. Jin! Please save my grandma!"
Just as Gu Ji made his judgnt, with a "thump", Cui Ridou actually kneeled down in front of him, leaving the gangster followers behind him stunned.
Yet he didn’t care about his followers’ gaze, "thud, thud, thud," bowing his head three tis, then grabbing Gu Ji’s shoe, crying and begging.
"I know I am not worthy of asking for your help, but grandma is different from . She’s the kindest person in the world. Her heart is in poor condition, and RS would be very severe for her. Please, be rciful and save grandma. I will do anything for you in return, even if it ans dying!"
"Get up! Put on your mask! Put it on!"
Gu Ji shouted twice.
But Cui Ridou wouldn’t listen, continuing to kneel and bow, hitting his head against the tiled floor of the outpatient clinic until blood mixed with snot and tears ca out.
The special fever clinic channel.
The father who barged in with his child was also subdued by security and dical staff. Seeing this scene, he couldn’t help but cry out, "God! Why are you so cruel, my son is only eight years old this year! If you are capable, take my life away, boohoo..."
Surrounding patients and dical staff were also moved by the scene of Cui Ridou and the father’s wailing.
Pressure from long-term intense work;
Nerves on edge day after day;
The pain of having loved ones infected;
And the difficulty of seeking treatnt.
Since the first confird RS patient appeared on May 20, all negative emotions seed to erupt at this mont.
"Everyone, listen to ."
At the mont when the scene was getting out of control and everyone’s emotions hit rock bottom, Gu Ji suddenly spoke loudly, drawing everyone’s attention to him.
"I understand everyone has a lot of difficulties, but please give more understanding to us dical staff. I am Jin Zhijiu, a prosecutor from the Seoul Central District Prosecution’s Public Security Departnt of the Republic of Korea, specializing in handling biochemical attack events. The AM Hospital I collaborate with has already initiated ergency response asures."
"dical staff from mild illness wards are rushing to support the fever clinic channel. The dical observation room, severe isolation wards, oxygen therapy machines, ventilators, and extracorporeal mbrane oxygenation support technology are all ready. Please trust , trust the hospital, and start queuing in an orderly manner from now on. We will do our best to save every patient!!"
After speaking.
There was a dead silence in the audience.
After a long silence, soone started clapping, leading the patients, dical staff, and even the Mountain Dog Gang followers, now with red-rimd eyes, to subconsciously clap and cheer along.
"Thank you! Mr. Jin! Thank you for your great tolerance! Thank you..."
Cui Ridou wiped his snot and blood with his sleeve, an expression of determination and stubbornness flashing in his eyes, "I, Cui Ridou, will do as I say. I will be your servant, and I am going now to lead them to bring down Shansang Hospital!"
But before he could get up, Gu Ji grabbed his shoulder.
Cui Ridou felt as though his shoulder blade was being clamped by pincers.
It was only at this mont that he realized how vast the gap between him and the other was.
"Cui Ridou, saving people in the hospital is not because of your begging, and I don’t need you to bring down Shansang Hospital."
"Then just say it, whatever you want to do, even if it’s killing soone, I, Cui Ridou, will not hesitate!"
"You, and your followers, go right now to get a PCR virus test!"
