Strange illness!

Helpless, incapacitated.

A few days ago, a strange illness appeared in Nanhuan City, causing an uproar in the medical community.

Seven patients, after various examinations and analyses, showed no signs of poisoning, yet suffered intermittent abdominal pain and relentless diarrhea.

In the end, not a single one survived.

Following the incident, many medical research units and large hospitals dispatched personnel to participate in the post-incident investigation.

Xu Feng, who was sent to Liuli City First People’s Hospital, also had experts sent to collect case histories and samples.

But…

Nobody expected that a few days later, another highly similar case would emerge.

And the patient’s identity was extremely special, the notorious Evil Man of Liuli City.

This strange illness, its cause yet undiscovered, was incurable and death was inevitable.

And so…

The entire Xu Family was alarmed.

From two in the morning, numerous luxury cars gathered one after another.

The parking lot quickly became as busy as a luxury car show.

The Xu Family mobilized their connections, summoning numerous medical experts overnight to diagnose the condition and discuss treatment plans.

But…

How to save him?

It was the same condition as the seven patients from Nanhuan City.

All sorts of blood tests, urine tests, gastric fluid examinations…

everything that could be done was done.

Even so, they conducted the tests three times with different instruments and personnel.

Meng Sihua and the others were also arranged to undergo detailed inspections.

From the airport reception to eating seafood at the restaurant, and finally returning to the hotel…

Everyone thoroughly recalled the entire process, what they had eaten and drunk, what they had come into contact with, not overlooking any details.

But the more they investigated, the more perplexed they became.

All night long, Xu Feng and Meng Sihua and the others stayed together, eating and drinking the same things, and even had bodyguards following them.

Poisoned?

Were they all blind?

Infected by a virus?

How did the infection occur?

Through utensils, food ingredients, drinks?

But why was everyone else fine?

Especially in the hotel, Meng Sihua, who discussed business with Xu Feng over drinks, was completely unharmed.

Time moved forward…

Could it be that Xu Feng was harmed at a nightclub last night?

A slow-acting poison that erupted tonight?

The cause of the disease was entirely undetectable, and the condition uncontrollable.

Were they to just watch helplessly as Xu Feng suffered and died?

This night.

The Xu Family was like a collective of madmen, seeking medical advice and investigating the cause of the disease.

Over the last few days, anyone who had had a meal with Xu Feng, slept with him…

anyone who had the opportunity to poison or drug him, were all sought out by the family.

Not coming?

Forcefully taken, they had to be brought to the hospital.

Because of this.

Wu Jie, who had spoken to Xu Feng before his illness, also became a suspect.

Now, before the sky had even brightened, two robust men knocked on the door incessantly.

Wu Jie climbed up from the sofa, glancing at Tang Xiao lying flat and sleeping, and made his way to the door at a leisurely pace.

Peeking through the peephole, he saw two sturdy men, looking quite anxious.

Cracking open the door, Wu Jie asked lazily:

“Who are the two of you, knocking at this ungodly hour?”

“Mr.

Wu, Mr.

Xu fell ill with a strange disease at two in the morning, suspected of being poisoned.

Elder Master Xu has ordered that everyone who has recently been in contact with Mr.

Xu be brought to the hospital, so we need you to come with us!”

Wu Jie looked astonished, “Who is Mr.

Xu?

And who is Elder Master Xu?

I haven’t even woken up fully; why would I go to some damn hospital?”

“Mr.

Xu is Xu Feng.

You were here at one in the morning, chatting with him for a while!”

Wu Jie gave an ‘oh’ and asked with a look of astonishment:

“I only met him for the first time last night and we talked for a bit.

Are you suggesting I poisoned him?”

“If I had that ability, wouldn’t I be making anyone I glare at pregnant”

The two men looked at each other, and one of them, gritting his teeth, said:

“Mr.

Wu, we’re just following orders; please don’t make this difficult for us!”

“Difficult?”

Wu Jie scoffed, “If you two were cops and had a warrant, I’d go with you right away.”

“But what is this?

Am I supposed to listen just because Elder Master Xu says so?”

“There were so many people there at the time; I was at least a meter away from him – how could I poison him?”

Wu Jie had just finished speaking when another person stepped forward a half step.

“Mr.

Wu, please don’t force our hand!”

“What’s this?

You’re going to kidnap me by force, huh?”

Wu Jie opened the door to reveal his muscular physique.

“Come on!

Want to try me?”

“I really want to see just how lawless the Xu Family can be in Liuli City!”

Poising slightly, Wu Jie’s tone turned cold and stern as he shouted:

“If you have evidence, call the police and arrest me; if not, then get the hell out of here.

Wake up my wife, and I won’t beat you to death!”

At this fierce shout, the two exchanged glances and without another word, they left.

Once they got into the elevator, the two of them couldn’t stop muttering to each other.

“We were there last night; there’s no way he had a chance to poison anyone!”

“Mr.

Xu gets a stomachache, and it’s like a storm has hit the city.

If he got beat up, wouldn’t that turn the world upside down?”

“Enough!

Stop complaining.

They’ve been brought up pampered, can they be like us?”

…

Bang!

Wu Jie closed the door and went back to the couch to continue sleeping.

Is Xu Feng going to die?

Damn it, Diarrhea-inducing Pills are not poison; they just make him temporarily weak.

Cheng Bao and the seven others had rapidly worsening conditions, their organs failing, moving closer to death.

But Xu Feng…

If the doctors and nurses were just a bit more observant, they would realize Xu Feng was completely different.

Eat more, get more fluids, and he’ll gradually get better.

A tiny problem, and they want to haul everyone suspected of poisoning to the hospital…

The Xu Family is really damn domineering!

Wu Jie slept until Cui knocked on the door to call him for dinner; it was already eight-thirty.

After washing up, he went downstairs to the buffet.

As soon as Wu Jie and his companion sat down, Wu Jianguo said:

“You two go to the hospital for a check-up.

I’ll take the ladies out for a walk!”

“I can go to the hospital alone; let Jie come with you guys!”

“It’s okay!

We’ve got money for food and taxis, we won’t get lost and fail to find our way back.

Plus, it’s best to have a prenatal check-up together, to have a check for some peace of mind, right?” Liao Lan said with a smile, persuading them.

Tang Xiao couldn’t refute and had to nod in agreement.

…

The scenic spots were crowded during the extended holiday, and so were the hospitals.

The better the hospital’s medical skills, the more patients there were.

They took a taxi to Liuli City First People’s Hospital and had to wait a long time just to register.

Even after getting a CT scan they waited a long time, and still, Expert Huo hadn’t come back.

Upon asking a nurse, they found out that all the experts had gone to the emergency department to consult on a special case.

Apparently, it was intermittent diarrhea with an unidentified cause, and the patient’s family had called in all the experts.

Not even sparing the orthopedic experts – it was a classic case of “desperate illness calls for desperate doctors.”

And with such a big show, who else in Liuli City would have the clout for that?

Of course, Wu Jie knew very well who it was.

But Tang Xiao looked at Wu Jie with a profound gaze and said,

“Nanhuan City has also seen this strange disease before, with mysterious deaths among people like Cheng Bao who had a grudge with you.”

“Now Xu Feng also suddenly falls ill with a strange illness, and before the onset, you two had more than a few verbal fights in the hotel corridors.”

“Do you think… this could be some sort of coincidence?”

Tang Xiao’s red lips curled into a flirtatious smile as she teasingly looked at Wu Jie.

“If I had that much ability, I’d have cured you long ago!”

Wu Jie chuckled disdainfully.

Tang Xiao’s smile held a hint of mockery as she nodded slightly, about to speak when she saw orthopedic Expert Huo Chengping return.

Oddly, however, he walked with his head down, his right hand caressing his face, silently shedding tears, as though someone had slapped him…
