Liu Tielan had just put down her teacup when she muttered to herself softly, "Huh, why is my heartbeat even faster than before?"
Everyone heard her, but no one took it seriously, as Liu Tielan had just e back from rigorous exercise, and an accelerated heartbeat was pletely normal.
Unexpectedly, before Liu Tielan could finish her sentence, she suddenly collapsed, her body convulsed more and more dramatically, her pupils dilated, and yet she was pletely unconscious, just like an epileptic during a seizure.
At that moment, Teacher Shen also began to convulse, breathing quickly and her body shaking, although she seemed slightly better than Liu Tielan, not convulsing as violently.
As it was during class hours, there were many teachers in the office, and everyone was terribly shocked.
"What’s going on? Is it epilepsy?"
"That’s impossible, epilepsy doesn’t present like this."
"Quick, call an ambulance!"
....
The office was in chaos, and Sisi rushed over as soon as Liu Tielan started convulsing. She forced herself to calm down and slowly recalled what should be done first for someone suspected of poisoning.
But now her mind was mess, unable to think of anything, and Sisi frustratingly slapped her own head.
Induce vomiting!
Yes, induce vomiting!
A thought flashed through Sisi’s mind, remembering from TV shows in her previous life where people who were poisoned would first try to vomit the ingested substance. She loudly called out, "Everyone e help me to induce vomiting for Mr. Liu, make her vomit it out."
"Yes, yes, yes, it will be okay if she vomits."
Another older teacher also snapped back to reality and hurried over to help.
Two male teachers laid Liu Tielan face down because her convulsions were severe, and the two male teachers couldn’t hold her down alone. Two more came over and held her limbs, finally managing to control her.
The elder teacher initially wanted to use chopsticks to induce vomiting for Liu Guilan, but as she was convulsing too violently, he didn’t dare to insert the chopsticks. Sisi thought for a moment, quickly fetched a small washbasin she used for handwashing, poured all the water from the kettle into it, and hurriedly ran to the water room to fetch some cold water.
When she returned, she rapidly chopped a bar of soap into small pieces, threw them into the basin, and vigorously stirred with her hands to accelerate the soap’s dissolution.
After a while, not caring whether the soap had pletely dissolved, Sisi scooped up a cup of water and poured it into Liu Tielan’s mouth, one cup after another.
After pouring the entire basin, Liu Tielan suddenly vomited, expelling a large basin of soapy water.
Sisi noticed Liu Tielan’s convulsions seemed to decrease a bit, and couldn’t help feeling excited. She poured another kettle of boiling water into the basin, mixed another basin of soapy water, and continued to pour it into Liu Tielan.
In this way, pouring and vomiting, a total of three basins of soapy water were administered. On the other side, someone was also using Sisi’s method to help Teacher Shen. Although no one really liked Teacher Shen, at a critical moment like this, no one would be petty.
The ambulance arrived quickly, just as Sisi finished pouring the third basin of soapy water, the ambulance ’whoopeed’ its way into the school, stopping right in front of the office building.
The doctors and nurses rushed in with a stretcher, the leader was a psychiatrist that Sisi knew, Dr. Zeng Hongbo from Huangyuan Hospital, introduced by Zhong Anping.
Zeng Hongbo was a university classmate of Zhong Anping. With his professional skills, he could have stayed in Capital City, but instead he returned to his hometown in S Province, working as a surgeon in the city’s top hospital. Sisi was also in luck as Zeng Hongbo happened to e to Huangyuan Hospital for a two-year exchange program.
At the beginning, in order to help Danni treat her psychological trauma, Sisi called Zhong Anping for help, who immediately remended Zeng Hongbo, mentioning that Zeng Hongbo had minored in psychology during college and had excelled in it, attaining a professional standard.
Thus, Sisi approached Zeng Hongbo, although if she hadn’t, Zeng Hongbo was about to contact Danni’s family to discuss the matter. He saw the psychological treatment of Danni as an opportunity to help the young girl and enhance his own professional skills—a win-win situation.
Zeng Hongbo didn’t expect that the Deputy Secretary’s wife from his own county would turn out to be the sister mentioned by his old classmate on the phone, and she was still so young and beautiful. Remembering how his old classmate had rejected so many female classmates in school, who remains single to this day, and often lost in thought under the starry sky alone, he seemed to understand a few things.
The word "emotion" truly hurts people!
With Sisi facilitating, Danni’s uncle readily agreed to let Zeng Hongbo handle the treatment, and the hospital director had no objections, as long as Zeng Hongbo’s work wasn’t affected.
During Zeng Hongbo’s treatment period, Sisi visited several times, and Danni’s condition had greatly improved. She was no longer as fearful of people as before and had a smile on her face, which made it apparent that Zeng Hongbo’s professional capabilities were indeed exceptional.
Unexpectedly, the doctor making house calls today turned out to be Zeng Hongbo. Sisi quickly stood up and nodded in greeting.
Zeng Hongbo hadn’t anticipated seeing Sisi here either; surprise flashed across his face, but he quickly posed himself and asked about the patient’s symptoms.
Sisi captured the main points of Liu Tielan’s symptoms after drinking the tea and also mentioned the remedial actions taken afterward.
Zeng Hongbo, seeing the soap water Liu vomited on the floor, nodded in approval and directed the other nurses and doctors to carry the two onto the vehicle.
After thinking for a moment, Sisi decided to follow as well. She was really worried about Liu Tielan and felt it would be more reassuring to go along.
Before leaving, she told the other teachers in the office, "Don’t discard the teacups Mr. Liu and Teacher Shen drank from, they contain evidence."
Sisi spoke gravely, and the other teachers nodded solemnly, understanding the seriousness, as the Police Station would certainly bee involved due to the magnitude of the incident.
Everyone failed to notice that since Liu Guilan’s reaction began, Wang Shimin turned pale, his forehead covered with sweat, and his fingers kept trembling uncontrollably, earning the sympathy of other teachers who couldn’t help but fort him.
"Mr. Wang, Teacher Shen will be fine, don’t worry too much."
Wang Shimin forced a smile, nodding as he continually wiped his sweat with a handkerchief and kept drinking water, seemingly trying to alleviate the fear in his heart.
How could this happen?
Wasn’t Treasure Bead supposed to be just ordinary allergy medicine?
Why had Liu Guilan reacted like that after drinking it?
And why does He Sisi seem fine?
Instead, why is it Treasure Bead who’s had an issue?
What exactly is going on?
Will others realize he was the one who administered the drug?
Will he be arrested by the police?
Will he be executed by gunfire?
Wang Shimin’s mind was overwhelmed with questions, feeling as though it would explode; he sat panicked, holding his head in the school’s back garden, on a bench. Even though the sun above was so bright, his heart felt as though it had plunged into an icy pit.
