Chapter 1059: Chapter 1055: Detoxify First, Talk Later

"First, come with me to buy herbs and make a decoction to detoxify all the poisoned people. Second, help me investigate this matter and find out the real culprit behind it. That way, Li Han will be fine."

Chen Yang remained very calm, immediately grasping the key points in such a sudden event.

Even though Li Han was in trouble, panicking wouldn’t help at this moment; it was better to use the time to cure the sick in the hotel.

As long as no one dies, everything can still be salvaged.

Even if they couldn’t catch the real culprit, they could at least reduce their own troubles.

But if someone died, even if they found the real culprit and someone did it deliberately, the hotel wouldn’t be able to avoid responsibility.

After all, the incident happened in the hotel, so Li Han must be held accountable.

Yang Ruoxi quickly reacted to what Chen Yang said.

"Yes, yes, you’re right, Chen Yang. Right now, my sister is at the police station. What we need to do is help her clear her name!" Yang Ruoxi nodded repeatedly.

"Mm."

Chen Yang nodded and then said, "I know the condition of all the patients now. They are all poisoned with a kind of slow-acting poison, and I have a way to counteract it."

"Come with me now. We’ll go to the herbal store to buy some herbs back and detoxify the patients first."

Without waiting for Yang Ruoxi to respond, Chen Yang directly grabbed her hand and walked out of the hotel.

At this moment, the hotel was bustling with noise.

Comatose poisoned patients were placed everywhere, numbering in the hundreds.

The second floor couldn’t even hold them all, and plenty were spread throughout the lobby on the first floor.

Chen Yang took Yang Ruoxi out of the hotel and immediately drove to Li Lao’s herbal shop.

When Chen Yang arrived, Li Lao was leisurely lying in a rocking chair, dozing off while listening to opera.

Chen Yang entered the shop and immediately approached to give Li Lao a light shake: "Li Lao, Li Lao."

Li Lao wasn’t in a deep sleep, so Chen Yang’s gentle push woke him up instantly.

Upon opening his eyes and seeing Chen Yang, a smile immediately appeared on his face.

"Yang Zi? Why have you come suddenly? Is there a matter, or did you just drop by?" Li Lao asked with a smile.

Due to his concern for Li Han, Chen Yang didn’t show much of a smile and directly handed over a prescription.

"Li Lao, I’ve come to ask for your help. I need as much of the herbs on this prescription as you have in your shop, and if there’s not enough, I’ll have to ask you to transfer some from other places for me," Chen Yang said seriously.

Seeing Chen Yang’s expression, Li Lao immediately realized something was wrong.

Without a word, he took the prescription and carefully looked it over.

"I have plenty of these herbs in my warehouse. I’ll arrange for you right away," Li Lao said, turning to hand the prescription to the shop assistant: "Get as much of these herbs out as we have in the shop."

The assistant took the prescription and immediately went to the warehouse to fetch the goods.

At this moment, Li Lao glanced at Yang Ruoxi, standing next to Chen Yang, and then asked Chen Yang, "Yang Zi, what’s going on? Why do you suddenly need so many herbs?"

"There was an incident at the Lin Tian Xia Hotel. Many diners were poisoned at lunchtime. I need these herbs to detoxify the patients," Chen Yang explained.

"Poisoned?" Upon hearing, Li Lao’s expression immediately turned grave.

Though he had only heard the word ’poisoned’ and didn’t know the specifics, he still sensed a whiff of conspiracy.

"Yang Zi, there must be something fishy going on here; it’s definitely not as simple as a work mistake," Li Lao remarked thoughtfully.

"I know there’s something fishy about this matter, but the primary issue right now is to save lives. Once the people are saved, we can investigate further," Chen Yang said.

Li Lao nodded slightly, agreeing with Chen Yang’s approach.

Before long, the shop assistant brought out all the herbal stock from the shop’s warehouse and loaded it onto the vehicle.

"Li Lao, the situation over there is urgent, so I’ll take my leave now."

Seeing that all the medicinal herbs were loaded onto the vehicle, Chen Yang was about to rush back to Lin Tian Xia.

Seeing this, Li Lao quickly followed up; "I’ll come along to take a look. Even though I’m old, I can still be of some help."

Li Lao was a renowned medical expert, so having him to help was undoubtedly beneficial.

Thus, Chen Yang agreed without a word.

Together with Li Lao, Yang Ruoxi, and a vehicle loaded with herbs, they returned to the hotel.

Upon returning to the hotel, Chen Yang immediately instructed the hotel’s kitchen staff to unload all the herbs and bring them to the kitchen to be brewed.

Before Li Han left, she entrusted Chen Yang with handling all the hotel matters, so the hotel staff heeded Chen Yang’s orders without any doubt.

They immediately followed Chen Yang’s arrangements.

"Li Lao, those cooks, although careful, lack experience. Please oversee things in the kitchen to prevent any problems," Chen Yang requested after giving it some thought.

By this time, Li Lao had already witnessed the hotel’s dire situation.

Hundreds of people were critically poisoned; one misstep could mean a catastrophic incident.

"Alright, alright. I’ll go keep an eye on things," Li Lao nodded in agreement, then followed a server to the kitchen.

"Chen Yang, what can I do? Can I help?" Yang Ruoxi asked, eagerly wanting to contribute.

After thinking for a moment, Chen Yang replied, "Please prepare some bowls and chopsticks; we’ll need them later."

"Okay!"

Yang Ruoxi nodded and set off to get busy.

Meanwhile, Chen Yang headed alone to the hospital lobby to observe the patients’ severe conditions.

If any showed severe symptoms, he would give them the few Detoxification Pills he had on him.

To temporarily suppress the poison’s effects.

After running around for over half an hour, the herbs were finally ready in the kitchen.

Upon hearing the herbs were ready, Chen Yang immediately had the kitchen and servers begin administering the medicine to the patients.

But at that moment, the on-site doctors suddenly stood up in opposition.

"Isn’t it enough that your hotel has caused such a huge mess? Are you trying to make things worse?" one doctor loudly scolded the servers administering the medicine.

The server was rendered speechless on the spot by the reprimand.

Seeing this, Chen Yang immediately stepped forward to explain: "Doctor, these herbs are specifically for detoxifying the poison, and the patients will be detoxified after taking them."

The doctor raised an eyebrow, looked at Chen Yang, wearing a dismissive expression, but possibly, noticing Chen Yang’s distinctive status, did not speak as loudly as he had with the server.

"You say it’s a detox, and it’s a detox? What on earth is your hotel doing, causing such a big incident and yet refusing to introspect but instead stirring up trouble? Can’t you quietly cooperate with our work? If you want to save people, you’ll have to listen to us!"

The doctor’s attitude was aggressive, enough to make Chen Yang want to give him a couple of punches.

They had been there for over an hour, and not a single patient got better, but the doctors’ attitudes were all high and mighty.

"By the time you develop a treatment plan, the patients will already be beyond saving! My prescription specifically counters this type of poisoning, and taking it will show immediate effects," Chen Yang stated solemnly.

However, in the doctor’s ears, his words were nothing more than a joke.

With so many professional doctors unable to come up with a specific detoxification plan, how could someone running a hotel have a good solution?
