Chapter 401: Chapter 401 Perilous Killings

In the emergency room.

Lin Fan’s expression was grave.

The silver needle in his hand rapidly transformed into streaks of cold light.

Constantly piercing into Ning Zhenyue’s chest.

At the same time, his forehead was also covered with cold sweat.

After all, he was now racing against the Grim Reaper for a life.

A moment of carelessness, and Ning Zhenyue could bid farewell to the world.

Time ticked by, second by second.

At his side, Ning Mengyao, kneeling on the ground, clenched her grandfather’s hand tightly.

He was her only remaining relative in this world.

As for those two outside, they were not even human in her eyes.

"Why have you stopped?"

In her grief, Ning Mengyao noticed that Lin Fan had actually stopped moving.

He stood there, staring blankly at Ning Zhenyue.

On the monitor, the heartbeat was still zero.

There was no change in blood pressure or any other metric.

"It seems I underestimated this toxin. This neurotoxin is even more terrifying than I thought, meaning the culprit was that recent poisoner."

Lin Fan narrowed his eyes as he looked at Ning Zhenyue’s pale face.

Normally, even someone who had just passed away still had a flush of color in their face.

But now, his face was deathly pale.

"What should we do? Is there really no way to save him?"

Ning Mengyao raised her head to look at Lin Fan’s face.

Could it be that her grandfather was truly about to pass away?

"There is a way, but it requires trading one life for another!"

Lin Fan narrowed his eyes.

Conventional methods were no longer sufficient to remove such a neurotoxin.

Thus, only a cruel Forbidden Technique remained.

But the cost would be to exchange one life for another.

"I am willing!"

Ning Mengyao spoke without hesitation.

If her life could be traded for her grandfather’s, she would do it without a second thought.

"Stop talking nonsense. If your grandfather knew he lived because of your life being traded for his, do you think he could still live with that?"

Lin Fan patted Ning Mengyao’s head.

He understood her attachment and reluctance to let go of her grandfather.

But in fact, such an act was absolutely impossible.

"But... I don’t want grandpa to just go like this, he hasn’t even seen his great-grandson yet..."

Ning Mengyao knelt on the ground, tears once again spilling from her eyes.

Her grandfather always used this to remind the two of them.

But it was only at this moment that she remembered.

"Don’t worry, he will definitely see his great-grandson, but next time you’ll have to work a little harder on your own."

Lin Fan pinched her cheek.

A great-grandson couldn’t just appear by talking about it.

"I will definitely work very hard!"

Ning Mengyao nodded repeatedly.

As long as her grandfather could be saved, she was willing to exert as much effort as needed.

"Alright, you stay here with your grandfather now. I’m going to step out for a moment, I will be right back."

Now was not the time for tenderness and love.

Lin Fan already had a plan in mind.

He immediately stepped out of the emergency room.

Outside the door, Mr. Chen, the hospital director, naturally was standing guard.

All the doctors and nurses involved in the resuscitation stood behind him.

"Mr. Lin, how is Mr. Ning doing?"

Upon seeing Lin Fan come out, Mr. Chen immediately approached him.

His demeanor was one of utmost respect.

The presence of Mr. Ning and his son also meant they dared not speak further.

"Mr. Ning was indeed poisoned, but I’ve already expelled the poison with the Silver Needle Skill, and he is now out of danger. However, since the poison contaminated his blood, he must undergo a large blood transfusion, urgently requiring 2000CC of blood..."

Lin Fan whispered into Mr. Chen’s ear.

After listening to Lin Fan’s instructions,

Mr. Chen nodded repeatedly and then, without looking back, strode toward the exterior of the room.

At that moment, Lin Fan grabbed the duty doctor who had just come in.

"Mr. Lin... What I did just now was not appropriate..."

The duty doctor immediately panicked.

After all, even the senior hospital director treated this man with the utmost respect.

His job was hanging on a mere word after all.

One must understand, this was the best hospital in Jiangning.

Being a doctor here wasn’t just about an increase in income.

It was also a mark of honor for an exceptional doctor.

"What you did was right; it’s just that my situation is a bit special. Plus, I have something I need your help with right now," said Lin Fan, patting the doctor on the shoulder.

Whether Mr. Ning would be brought back from the brink of death,

depended on his assistance.

"Mr. Lin, please give your orders. If it’s something I can do, I’ll put in my best effort," said the duty doctor, nodding repeatedly.

He didn’t dare to refuse.

"You’re familiar with all the nurses in the department, right? The ones you can recognize even if they’re wearing face masks." Lin Fan lowered his voice and glanced at the nurses standing behind him.

Dressed in their uniforms and wearing masks, they all seemed uneasy now.

"Familiar. These nurses are all under my charge, and I’ve worked with them for several years. I can tell who they are just by their eyes. What do you need?" the duty doctor asked, still not understanding what was going on.

"Good. You’ll come in with me soon, and then have them walk back and forth continuously. For whatever reason, they cannot stop; they must appear very hurried. Understood?" Lin Fan wrapped an arm around the duty doctor’s shoulder and walked into the emergency room.

"I don’t quite understand... but no problem, I’ll cooperate!" said the somewhat confused duty doctor, still unable to grasp Lin Fan’s meaning.

But pretending to be busy was still quite simple.

Meanwhile, Mr. Chen’s voice had already begun to broadcast throughout the hospital.

"Attention all departmental staff, patient Ning Zhenyue in the emergency room has passed the critical phase. However, he has lost a lot of blood and urgently needs 2000CC of B-type blood. Any staff member with B-type blood, please rush to the emergency room for blood donation immediately... I repeat, the patient’s condition is critical, and 2000CC of B-type blood is urgently needed, please proceed to the emergency room for blood donation immediately..."

As the announcement sounded,

personnel from all hospital departments quickly began to gather.

This kind of event was quite common in hospitals.

For these medical staff,

it was a matter of duty.

Suddenly, there was a bustle of activity outside the emergency room.

Everyone was rolling up their sleeves, ready to donate blood.

Inside the emergency room, all the nurses were going in and out.

Among the flurry of busy figures, a tall, elegant silhouette also blended in.

Wearing a white coat and a mask, she casually picked up a tray.

Seeing that no one was around, she followed the other nurses into the emergency room.

A pair of eyes filled with murderous intent glanced toward Ning Zhenyue lying on the distant bed.

At that moment, the nearby monitors showed that his heartbeat had unexpectedly recovered.

This caused her to frown slightly.

Looking around to see that no one was paying attention, she immediately grabbed a syringe off the tray.

Step by step, she moved closer to the hospital bed.

"Nurses wear their nursing shoes on duty, not high heels. Plus, none of our department’s nurses are that tall, and something about her eyes doesn’t seem right. She’s not one of us!" said the duty doctor from a corner, immediately noticing something off about the nurse.

Whether it was her build, her eyes, or her other accessories,

she didn’t resemble a bona fide nurse in the slightest.

Hearing this, Lin Fan revealed a slight smile.

"Alright, we’ve found the person to exchange lives with. After you go out, immediately tell everyone to disperse. Before I leave, absolutely no one is allowed to enter the emergency room."
