"Let’s agree on that, and don’t let it slip, or else I won’t be able to help you next ti."
While on the call, Doctor Luo kept her eyes fixed on the downstairs exit. When she saw Guan Bo’s figure, she quickly retreated and then headed towards Guan Bo’s dormitory.
As soon as Guan Bo stepped out of the hospitalization departnt, he bumped into Tang Yinglong head-on.
Looking at the relaxed and humming Guan Bo, Tang Yinglong’s face was as black as the bottom of a pot. He simply couldn’t understand how this kid could still be so relaxed at such a mont.
"Shouldn’t you be reviewing the Materials I gave you? What are you doing?"
"A patient up ahead was looking for . I’m going to check on him, then I’ll co back and continue reviewing the Materials."
Tang Yinglong didn’t dwell on it, but continued with a gloomy face, "It’s right to see patients, but this hospital has too many eyes and ears. You need to keep the Materials I gave you secure. Don’t let anyone else see them. If soone else sees them, it won’t end well for either of us."
Guan Bo chuckled. "Don’t worry, Uncle. I left the Materials in my dormitory. I even locked the door when I left."
He then took out his mobile phone and opened an app. "There’s a cara in my dormitory. I can check the situation there anyti. It’s absolutely safe. Look, isn’t it very clear? The whole dormitory is in full view. Plus, my cara has a two-way audio function. If anyone enters, I can speak through the cara and tell them to leave imdiately."
Tang Yinglong glanced at the mobile phone, then looked at Guan Bo strangely. "You’re the only one living in that dormitory. Why did you install a cara for yourself?"
Guan Bo gave an awkward smile. "Actually, I didn’t install it; Minmin did. She works the night shift a lot, right? So when she’s on her night shift, I don’t go ho. I just stay in the dormitory, and I can get more reading done. But she doesn’t believe , so she installed this cara. Says she can check up on anyti to see if I’m lying."
Tang Yinglong looked at his nephew again, not knowing what to say.
He’s thirty years old and has been dating this Minmin since university, but the kid just won’t get married. Is there sothing wrong with his brain?
"Alright, hurry up with your business. Get back here and review the Materials as soon as you’re done." With that, he left.
Guan Bo didn’t want to chat with his uncle either, as he didn’t want to draw attention to himself.
In this hospital, only his teacher knew about his relationship with Tang Yinglong. He had never ntioned it to anyone else.
Guan Bo glanced at the screen on his mobile phone and was about to close the app.
But just as his hand moved to do so, a white figure appeared on the static screen of his mobile phone.
Guan Bo’s heart clenched. I rember locking the door just now!
Just as he was about to activate the cara’s two-way audio function, he recognized the person. This made him hesitate, his eyebrows furrowing. "Doctor Luo?"
On the screen, Doctor Luo hurried to Guan Bo’s desk. After quickly flipping through the Materials on it, she took out her mobile phone and began photographing them.
Watching on his mobile phone, Guan Bo’s mind was in turmoil. For a mont, he even forgot to use the two-way audio function to stop Doctor Luo from taking pictures.
What is she doing? She’s my junior’s girlfriend! Why would she do this? Could my junior have put her up to this? Impossible. That must be a wild guess. My junior is the one who’s been giving advice, helping through this crisis. He couldn’t possibly be behind this.
Just then, Doctor Luo, who had just photographed two pages of Materials, was startled by her suddenly ringing phone. The mobile phone in her hand almost slipped from her grasp.
Recognizing the caller ID, Doctor Luo quickly answered the phone. "XX, what is it? I’m in the middle of photographing the Materials."
"...Professor Lan Changhua is looking for you? ... Let see..."
Doctor Luo lowered her head and began looking at the Materials on the table. After flipping through a few pages, she said, "There are already notes and many revisions on these. They should have finished discussing it."
Doctor Luo listened quietly for a while before speaking again. "Your idea is good, but you’re still too impatient. Although releasing these Materials now could indeed generate a lot of buzz while the topic is hot, if you release them now, you’re just giving Guan Bo another chance. He and his uncle would have plenty of ti to maneuver, and it wouldn’t even be difficult for them to replace all the volunteers. My suggestion is to wait until the competition is over and the results are out. Then you can release these Materials and expose Guan Bo’s relationship with Deputy Dean Tang. That way, Guan Bo will lose any chance to make a coback. Besides, by delaying the release of this evidence, they won’t suspect us. They’ll just think Guan Bo got arrogant after winning the competition and carelessly let the Materials leak. And that will be the perfect ti for you to truly impress your teacher. That’s when your benefits will be maximized."
After speaking, Doctor Luo listened to a few words from the other end, then said, "Alright, listen to , you can’t go wrong. Since we’ve already started this, don’t get soft-hearted. We absolutely cannot give Guan Bo any chance to recover."
With that, Doctor Luo didn’t wait for the other person to ramble on and directly hung up the phone. She then resud photographing the Materials on the table, CLICK! CLICK! CLICK!
Hearing the familiar na from Doctor Luo’s lips, Guan Bo’s heart filled with rage.
The junior I couldn’t bring myself to suspect, the one I thought was my strategist, is actually an enemy trying to destroy ! To think, since yesterday, he’s been helping strategize, and I, like a fool, went along with everything, even treating him as a benefactor, like family! A wave of sha and humiliation instantly washed over Guan Bo.
He was already a narrow-minded person; otherwise, a re disease record and so online remarks wouldn’t have made him fixate on Du Heng so relentlessly.
Now, the anger and humiliation choked him, making it difficult to breathe. He couldn’t utter a single word. His entire body stiffened and trembled, and he could barely hold onto his mobile phone.
Just as the figure disappeared from the mobile phone screen, the rage in Guan Bo’s chest erupted, surging to the crown of his head. In an instant, his eyes felt like they would split from fury. The rush of anger blanked his brain, and a ZZZZT... ZZZZT... ZZZZT... sound echoed in his ears.
This torrent of rage gave him no ti to react. After surging upward, it imdiately plunged downward, from the crown of his head straight towards his Spirit Gate.
Instantly, a sound like heavenly thunder bood, followed by a continuous series of PUFF! PUFF! PUFF! sounds. An unbearable stench accompanied this, causing the surrounding passersby to cover their noses and mouths, their eyes wide with fear as they scrambled away from Guan Bo.
It was only then that people noticed that the young man in the white gown not only reeked unbearably, but his trousers were also completely soaked, and a vile liquid was pooling around his feet.
Looking closer, the young man’s face was flushed crimson, his eyes stared blankly, and not only were his eyeballs completely bloodshot, but veins were also throbbing visibly at the corners of his eyes.
Moreover, his entire body was rigid, trembling uncontrollably, and strange GURGLE! GURGLE! GURGLE! sounds emanated from his throat.
Everyone, disgusted and frightened, shied away. But before they could even begin to discuss it, the GURGLE! GURGLE! GURGLE! in the man’s throat abruptly changed to a long, drawn-out gasp—he inhaled sharply but didn’t exhale. Then, his eyes rolled back, and he collapsed backward, landing amidst the widespread filth.
This sight sent the onlookers fleeing in even greater haste.
It all happened so fast. From the first whiff of the stench to seeing the man collapse, only a little over ten seconds had passed.
Fortunately, this was a hospital, so dical personnel passed by from ti to ti. Though terd dical care staff, they were mostly young nurses shuttling between various departnts.
But these nurses, many of them still young won, rushed to Guan Bo’s side the mont they saw him, heedless of the filth on the ground. They imdiately began to check his vital signs and administer first aid on the spot.
Just then, a gurney was wheeled over to Guan Bo. Several nurses worked together to lift him onto it.
"Make way, make way!"
Amidst shouts of "Make way!", the group, soiled by the filth, rushed towards the Ergency Hall.
As they watched the departing gurney, a buzz of discussion rose from the onlookers. anwhile, the custodial staff in the courtyard had already begun the final cleanup.
Everything proceeded in an orderly fashion.
