782: Chapter 782: Desperate diseases must have drastic remedies!

Top Secret!

The report came out.

Zheng was so excited he was like a child, almost jumping three feet high on the spot.

The other people in the command vehicle were also incredibly thrilled.

Even Tang Xiao, who had been told in advance that there would definitely be an effect, couldn’t help but be overjoyed.

“Impressive!

The whole world couldn’t solve it, but it was taken care of by your laxative!”

“It’s all because I didn’t study hard in the past, and now I can only use ‘f*ck’ to describe the shock in my heart!”

“Not bad, Jie!

It actually worked!”

Everyone was cheering, everyone was happy…

However, in the sickroom.

Bai Fengling and the other test volunteers were still asleep.

If they knew the news, they would definitely be even more excited.

They had survived a great calamity!

A life spared from disaster!

Wouldn’t that be more than just being too happy to close their mouths?

They might go crazy with joy!

But…

Only Wu Jie had a furrowed brow.

Something was off!

Could it be that the dosage was still too low?

“What’s wrong?

The virus in their body has reduced a lot, why don’t you look happy at all?”

Tang Xiao noticed Wu Jie’s knitted brows and seeming unhappiness, so she immediately asked with concern.

Wu Jie snorted with a laugh, “It’s just reduced quite a bit, not completely eliminated!”

“This…”

Tang Xiao said with a reassuring smile, “At least it proves that your Detox Pill is effective!

Wait a few more hours, give them another dose, and maybe it’ll be completely gone by then!”

Zheng heard the conversation and immediately turned his head around.

“That’s right!

As long as it works, that’s all that matters.

Don’t think about getting rich all at once.

Where is it so easy to do everything in one step?”

Wu Jie hummed and sneered, “If only it were that simple!”

Zheng and Tang Xiao exchanged glances, and their smiles gradually disappeared.

They both had a bad feeling.

“What exactly is going on?

Lay it all out for everyone at once!” Tang Xiao asked urgently.

Wu Jie immediately stood up and came to the LCD screen.

Pointing at Bai Fengling, who was still in a deep sleep, he explained:

“The Sakuragi Hana virus is the most vicious virus that has afflicted humanity to date.

Once it infects the human body, it proliferates rapidly!”

“It disintegrates the immune system, causing the white blood cells to keep decreasing, and resistance gradually falls!”

“Normally, human blood contains hematopoietic stem cells that have the ability to renew themselves and can differentiate into other blood cells.”

“But the virus erodes the hematopoietic stem cells, exploiting their self-renewing characteristic, to propagate incessantly!”

“In simple terms, the new mutant virus’s ability to reproduce is too strong.

If it’s not eliminated in one go, given enough time, it can proliferate rapidly again!”

Wu Jie’s gaze swept across and pointed at the report:

“Take a closer look at the blood test reports, look at the platelets, red blood cells, white blood cells…”

“Their levels are clearly below normal, and although the amount of virus has significantly decreased, it will proliferate quickly.”

“I estimate we need at least seven Detox Pills per treatment, otherwise, if we don’t remove the root, it will flourish again with the spring breeze!”

The crowd that had just been full of excitement now looked a bit dumbfounded.

“Ah?

Just three pills almost drained them, if it’s seven…

wouldn’t they just collapse and die of weakness?” Zheng said somewhat despondently, “I was just about to report the good news, but it seems like it might be a false celebration now!”

Tang Xiao muttered to herself:

“The Sakuragi Hana virus really lives up to its name!

Not only does it have many mutations, but the damn reproductive speed is super fast, too.

What should we do now?

We don’t have many Detox Pills left!”

“Yeah!

Sixty pills were used at three per person, and now we have only two hundred and forty left!” The team leader looked at Wu Jie, “I suggest we first give each of those more than a hundred patients whose conditions are worsening one pill, to slow down the deterioration!”

Zheng immediately added, “No, we still need to seek their voluntary consent.

So far, although the twenty test volunteers haven’t shown any side effects, it doesn’t guarantee there won’t be any later!”

“To slow down the deterioration, I believe they would be willing!”

The team leader stared intently at Wu Jie with a piercing look.

The current problem was quite troublesome.

The mutant Sakuragi Hana virus was damn powerful, with a reproduction rate that was too fast and fierce; seven Detox Pills were necessary.

But all the test volunteers were already so weakened; using strong medicine again…

might just directly cause them to die of weakness.

What was even more troublesome was…

The other one hundred and fifty-eight patients who were diagnosed at the same time, their conditions were continuing to worsen, and some were already in a deep coma.

If we wait until tomorrow, it might truly be ‘beyond remedy’, and even curing them would leave permanent scars that are difficult to recover from.

“How many confirmed patients are there currently?” Wu Jie asked urgently.

The team leader immediately replied, “Two hundred and thirteen.

Of the first one hundred and eighty-six diagnosed, nine are already in deep comas.”

Wu Jie did some quick calculations.

“If we give each of them one pill, and two pills for those in deep comas, then we’ll only have eighteen pills left!”

“There will likely be more confirmed cases later, and severe cases will require continuous use of Detox Pills to contain the virus.

We need to keep at least ten pills reserved!”

“So for us to keep testing, we only have eight pills left!”

Tang Xiao said anxiously, “How about we choose two test subjects now, and give them four pills each immediately, to see if the virus can be completely eradicated?”

Zheng asked, “Which two people should we choose?

Their physical fitness has to be relatively good, right?

Otherwise, they might die of weakness.”

Wu Jie glanced at Tang Xiao.

“How about Bai Fengling and Director Xue?”

Tang Xiao shrugged, “I don’t mind.

Saving anyone is the same; it’s all a risk on their lives.”

Wu Jie nodded slightly, then took a quick look at the team leader.

Without saying more, the team leader knew how to give the orders.

Zheng sighed, about to reach into his pocket for a cigarette.

But he noticed everyone was wearing a mask, clearly making it inappropriate to smoke.

Yet…

He really was very anxious!

Just when it seemed there was hope to defeat the mutated virus, it turned out…

the damn thing was too strong!

The Detox Pill was good, but if used sparingly, it simply wouldn’t suffice.

With too much, patients might just die from the debilitation.

This was truly screwing the pooch!

“Regardless, the fact that Detox Pills can effectively delay the worsening trend of the virus is a good thing!

It’s truly a cause for celebration!”

Tang Xiao’s voice was earnest as she reminded everyone.

Upon hearing this, Zheng heaved a long sigh of relief and happily exclaimed:

“Yes, indeed!

It’s such great news!”

As he spoke, he picked up the secure phone on the table and called Liuli City to report the latest developments.

This risky experimental drug trial was highly unconventional and was conducted as a secret operation under the guise of the Security Bureau.

The outside world had no knowledge of it; in fact, many senior officials and departments were also unaware.

Right now, Zheng was reporting directly to Elder Tan.

After learning the news, Elder Tan was extremely pleased and immediately requested to speak with Wu Jie.

“Son, you really are a genius!

I think it’s time to change your nickname from ‘King of Tricksters’.

How about calling you the ‘Medicine God’ instead!”

Wu Jie laughed, “The trial isn’t over yet; it could still be a failure, and besides…

I’m no Medicine God!”

“You shouldn’t say that.

The fact that it can eliminate quite a few viruses and delay the progression of the disease is already quite remarkable…”

Elder Tan continued to talk at length, but Wu Jie noticed Tang Xiao signaling to him with her eyes.

Clearly, she had something important to discuss with Elder Tan.

After agreeing a few times, Wu Jie handed the phone to Tang Xiao, who took the secure phone and stepped out of the car.

The secure phone was actually a satellite phone that used the Security Bureau’s private satellite for encrypted data transmission to avoid being tapped.

Zheng didn’t say much but instead turned his gaze to Wu Jie.

“Regardless of whether Detox Pills can completely eliminate the Sakuragi Hana virus, or whether there might be side effects later on, the fact that they can delay the worsening of the disease means that I think it’s very necessary to start mass production immediately!”

Wu Jie snapped his fingers and beckoned with a hook of his finger.

“Alright then!

Ten thousand per pill, bring the money!”

What???

Zheng immediately stood up.

“You…

You’re taking advantage of the situation to extort money?

Ten thousand per pill…

why don’t you just go rob someone?”

Wu Jie chuckled lightly.

“What’s with your reaction?

That look in your eyes?

Do you think this is an anti-inflammatory pill that costs just a few cents?”

“Do you think I’m really exploiting the situation?

Don’t you know what ‘you get what you pay for’ means?”

“At ten thousand a pill, I haven’t even charged you for the research expenses, just the cost price of cultivating the bacteriophage!”

“If you counted all the various expenses, thirty thousand a pill wouldn’t even be expensive.

Don’t think that I’m joking!”

Zheng scratched the back of his head.

“Human life is of utmost importance; no matter how expensive, the medicine needs to be produced and used!

Plus, this epidemic is special, there will surely be financial subsidies!”

“It might even be approved quickly, included in the health insurance, greatly reducing the cost of treatment for the people!”

Wu Jie gave a sheepish laugh.

“Other medicines maybe, but these Detox Pills…

even with money, they might not be available for purchase.

Cultivating bacteriophages isn’t easy!”

“Not only is the cycle long, but the success rate is also very low, so the price isn’t really important; the key issue is that the production is too low!”

Meanwhile.

Bai Fengling and Director Xue were receiving their second injection of the drug.

Success or failure hinged on this single move.

If luck was on their side, they might be cured, otherwise, they could collapse and die on the spot.

Zheng stopped chattering and focused intently on the surveillance footage, his heart almost reaching his throat.

Desperate diseases must have desperate cures!

Wu Jie believed that with four Detox Pills, Bai Fengling and her colleague would certainly be ‘cured with the medication.’

But being extremely weakened was inevitable, and even if they didn’t die, they would be at death’s door.

Time slowly passed by.

Tang Xiao was still on the phone outside the car.

Detox Pills could not only kill the Sakuragi Hana virus but even had the capacity to ‘cure all diseases.’

This was a matter of great significance.

If handled well, it could bring immense benefits to both the nation and its people.

It was the equivalent of giving the nation a ‘nuclear weapon’ in the field of medical health.

Between nations, only interests are eternal.

Friendly relations are nothing more than mutual exploitation.

Should any conflicts of interest arise, it would definitely be a life-or-death enmity.

A weak country has no diplomacy.

To be respected, you must first be strong enough.

Aircraft carriers, fighter jets, missiles, tanks…

all striving for perfection, why is everyone so desperate to be number one in the world?

With the ‘godly medicine’ Detox Pills, the nation could negotiate for more benefits on the international stage.

On the other hand, if other countries found out, they would inevitably face tremendous pressure.

Especially the Archipelago.

Right now, people are dying every moment.

The latest report stated that in City A alone, there were already over thirty thousand confirmed cases of the new mutant virus.

And other cities had also gradually found quite a few cases.

Although strict military control had been implemented, and there probably wouldn’t be any further spread of the epidemic.

But this was not a long-term solution; halting work, classes, flights, and imposing an internet ban would inevitably lead to doom.

So, if they knew that Wu Jie had a miracle cure, they would definitely do whatever it took to get the medicine.

They might offer a high price, directly request it, or they might endlessly beg for it as their people die…

In any case.

Touching one aspect affects the whole.

This is not something that can be explained in just a few words.

Time slowly passed by.

After taking the second dose, Bai Fengling and her colleague suddenly woke up and rushed into the bathroom.

By the time they came out, they were both very weak and seemed to be hanging by a thread.

The medical staff immediately performed infusions and blood transfusions to resuscitate them, and after two hours, they drew blood from their hands and feet for testing.

This time, just as Wu Jie had expected, they succeeded—the mutant virus had been completely eliminated.

Hearing the cheers inside the car, Tang Xiao immediately got in with the secure phone.

“Elder Tan orders that this matter is top secret.

Any breach of confidentiality results in death!!”
