Chapter 404: 404 Urgent_1

A shrill tire friction noise came through, as the bus left two deep tracks on the cement road.

As soon as the vehicle steadied, the bus door on one side also opened simultaneously. Gu Chen knew that it was now a matter of great urgency, and he couldn’t afford to delay even for a moment.

He shouted a quick "Thanks!" and immediately jumped down from the bus.

And began to sprint at full speed.

Seeing this, the onlookers were immediately captivated by Gu Chen’s agile figure.

They couldn’t help but crane their necks through the windows to look outside.

However, what happened the next second caught them all by surprise.

Because they couldn’t see any trace of Gu Chen outside the bus at all, "That man... he’s so fast, just in the blink of an eye, he’s gone."

At that moment, one of the parents on the bus said, somewhat puzzled.

And just then, the middle-aged woman who had fallen managed to get up from the ground. Realizing that she couldn’t find where the threatening figure had gone, her heart tightened again, and she made her way to the front of the bus, scrambling and rolling, and shrilly shouted at the driver.

"Driver, hurry, drive now, quick, let’s go to the hospital, to the hospital!"

The bus driver, feeling somewhat helpless at this point, turned around and said, "I’m not saying I won’t take you, but it’s really too late now, it could be over an hour to get back. Can your child wait that long?"

Upon hearing this, the woman instantly snapped out of her reverie and quickly turned to look at her son on the seat.

She saw that he had long been unconscious, and her heart, which was just filled with towering rage,

suddenly turned into utter despair, flustered and clueless.

She grabbed the driver’s arm desperately, "Then what do you suggest we do, I have money, we have money, I can give you any amount, as long as you can take us back."

The bus driver shook her off and said with an annoyed expression,

"This is the suburbs, the suburbs, do you understand? There isn’t even a person around here, and the nearest hospital in the city is at least an hour’s drive away. That young man looked reliable to me. Maybe we should wait here for a bit; he might be able to cure your son."

No sooner had he said this, than the woman’s temper flared up again.

She grabbed the driver’s arm once more and shouted desperately,

"Rely on that freeloader to save my son, why should I trust him to be a doctor? What if he administers wrong medicine and harms my Xiaoxuan? With the situation so dire, just take me to the hospital already.

Drive now, immediately, this instant! If there’s any more delay, do you believe I’ll sue you?"

Zhang Qianqian felt she couldn’t just stand by and watch anymore.

Although she hadn’t known Gu Chen for long,

after a few interactions, she considered him to be a very reliable man.

He wouldn’t shoot an arrow without a target, and Teacher Zhang believed

that given Gu Chen’s character, he would never make a joke out of an innocent child’s life.

If he says he can cure him, then he must be sure.

"Xiaoxuan’s Mom, I think you should calm down a bit. Let’s wait here for Dangdang’s dad for a while; maybe he really has a way."

Teacher Zhang approached and tried to calm down the woman, who was acting like a mad dog.

But just as her words ended, another crisp "slap" was heard in the air.

People turned towards the sound, only to see Teacher Zhang holding one side of her face with her hand,

her eyes full of disbelief, looking at the woman across from her.

"Xiaoxuan’s Mom, I, I was just trying to reason with you, how could you hit someone?"

"Hmph, you slut, I’m hitting you. Don’t think I don’t know—the moment you got on this bus, I knew you were in cahoots with that pretty boy. The others might be afraid of you as a teacher, but I sure ain’t. You’d better shut up now. If you dare delay me taking my son for treatment and something as much as a hair is harmed on Xiao Xuan, I’ll make you pay with your life."

The woman said so with a ferocious expression on her face.

After hearing this, Zhang Qianqian couldn’t help but shake with anger.

She never imagined that this woman before her could be so shameless, biting wildly at everyone once she lost her temper.

Unfortunately, at the end of the day, she was just a kindergarten teacher, even though she was often adulated by parents.

But if things really got out of hand, the principal of Little Sun Kindergarten would definitely fire her immediately.

And now it was a matter of life and death—if Xiao Xuan didn’t pull through.

Who knows if this woman would implicate her in it.

Zhang Qianqian, covering one side of her somewhat swollen cheek, grudgingly remained silent, despite feeling aggrieved.

She didn’t want to lose her well-paying job at Little Sun Kindergarten.

And even less did she want to get involved in any lawsuits over human life.

The other’s incessant insults continued to ring in her ears as she tightly pursed her lips.

In the end, she could only silently move aside.

Seeing this, the bus driver at the helm could only offer a bitter smile.

At the same time, he restarted the engine.

The bus gradually sped up on the road, and the doors slowly began to close.

However, just at that moment, a man’s arm suddenly stretched in from outside.

It blocked the closing pneumatic door of the bus.

Everyone was startled by this sudden turn of events and quickly looked towards the door.

At first glance, they saw Gu Chen clutching the door frame, running alongside the moving bus.

Seeing this, the driver immediately slowed down and once again pressed the button to open the door.

As the door opened wider, onlookers saw Gu Chen step directly in.

His arm, however, was covered in bloody bruises, clearly from being pinched by the door just now.

Gu Chen himself was grimacing in pain.

It felt as if thousands of needles were pricking his arm at the same time, the pain was unbearable.

He couldn’t help but wonder if it weren’t for the system increasing his physical constitution by +1 previously.

Perhaps a normal person would have had their arm snapped off by the door just from that impact.

And the woman who had been so arrogantly aggressive just moments ago now shrank away at the sight of Gu Chen, like a mouse seeing a cat.

Gu Chen didn’t need to think twice to figure out she must have been behind this mess.

But with time of the essence, he didn’t have the luxury to tangle with her any further.

Immediately, his hand flipped, and a bowl of steaming hot medicine, continuously bubbling with green foam, appeared in his hand.

Gu Chen quickly went over to the child’s side, pinched open his mouth, and forcefully fed the medicine down in one gulp.

The onlookers, witnessing this scene, couldn’t help but shrink their necks back in fear.

Good lord, what on earth is that, and could it possibly work?
