Eating Melons and Watching the Show in a Chronicles Novel

As a member of the working class, Lin Jingyu, a cargo registrar at a port, transmigrated to the early 1970s during her lunch break.

She unexpectedly discovered that she had entered a chronicl...

Chapter 373 Desperate measures!

"Hong Ge, you're not kidding?"

Peng Shiyu, who had just come downstairs, asked anxiously, "How many people were poisoned, and how were they poisoned?"

"Red songs, no rush, take your time."

Yang Shujue then asked, "What's the situation in the village now? How much do you know?"

"Come, have a glass of water."

Lin Jingyu handed him a glass of water. "I'll go find Grandpa Sun now. We can only ask Grandpa Sun for help with this."

Peng Shiyu nodded. "Yes, let's go to Grandpa Sun's."

“Hongge, it’s not too late for us to talk about this at Grandpa Sun’s house.”

Lin Jingyu added, "You all go ahead. I'm going to Sister-in-law Lu's house to find my grandmother and tell her."

Liu Hongge readily agreed, "Okay, Sister Jing, go over there quickly."

The gate is locked.

Everyone went out together.

Passing by the Lu family's house, Lin Jingyu went inside to look for someone.

The three of them continued on to Grandpa Sun's house.

"The Japanese devils are really too arrogant."

Madam Zhang's face turned angry. "They want the people of Shuibu Village to be buried with the Japanese devils surnamed Tian. How vicious!"

"The Japanese devils were never good people to begin with."

Anya Lin's face was full of disgust. "So many people have sacrificed themselves these past few days. Why don't we send those people to the deepest hell? Letting them live is just harming people."

"No matter what, save lives first."

Lin Jingyu stood up. "Grandma, I'll go to Grandpa Sun's house first and see how they plan to arrange things. If we need any help, we might go to Shuibu Village."

You and your sister-in-law can cook together, and it's not too late to go home after we get back.

"Don't worry about me."

Madam Zhang waved her hand, "Go on, but you all need to be careful not to get infected with those poisons."

"I will."

Lin Jingyu nodded in agreement, and then said to An Yalin, "Sister-in-law, you should all stay home these days. If you need anything, wait until we get back."

If you need something urgently, go to the Peng family's house and ask one of their guards to go out and buy it for you.

Also, please take care of Grandma for us. We'll try to come back as soon as possible.

"Don't worry, I know what to do."

An Yalin readily agreed.

Lin Jingyu left the Lu family and rushed to the Sun family as quickly as possible.

Liu Hongge and the other two had just sat down.

Fortunately, Grandpa Sun and Third Master Liu did not go out.

Upon hearing that something had happened in Shuibu Village, Uncle Liu suddenly stood up and roared, "These little devils are worse than animals!"

I really regret not killing more Japanese devils these past two days.

"Hongge, how did your village chief and uncle manage to protect the village? They didn't even know the Japanese had poisoned it, and they caused such a huge mess."

"Third Uncle, the village chief said it was probably poisoned a couple of days ago."

Liu Hongge explained, "A stranger on a bicycle came into the village carrying a lot of daily necessities to exchange with people. He drove around the village for a while and then left."

Approximately how many people were poisoned?

Grandpa Sun asked, "What did Dr. Niu say? Did anyone take him to the hospital?"

"Dr. Niu said it was poisoning, but he didn't know what kind of poison it was."

Liu Hongge responded, "Many people were sent to the town hospital; there were nearly a hundred people poisoned."

There are probably still people who have been poisoned but haven't shown symptoms yet, bringing the total to one or two hundred.

When the village chief saw me return, he told me to come back immediately to ask for your help.

"One or two hundred people should be manageable by the town hospital and the county hospital."

Grandpa Sun stood up. "Now we need to find out where the Japanese devils poisoned the water. Was it in a well, a river, or a water tank?"

Only by finding the source of the poison and curing it can we save lives.

Fortunately, the Japanese didn't use highly poisonous substances, otherwise more than half of the people in Shuibu Village would probably be dead.

"We'll head back right away."

Master Liu made a decision immediately and instructed Liu Hongge, "You hurry up and go to the Public Security Bureau to tell your Grandpa Zhang about this."

"Okay, I'll be there right away."

Liu Hongge agreed and ran out.

"Grandpa Sun, Third Grandpa, I'll go back with you."

Lin Jingyu explained her plan: "It's easier to run errands with more people, and I can also help with some things."

"Oh, right, Shujue, you're coming back to Shuibu Village with us too."

As the female lead, I believe she definitely has a way to solve the key problems.

We have to bring her back no matter what.

"Sure, but I wouldn't feel comfortable letting you go."

Yang Shujue thought of Su Jingtian, who had returned to the village yesterday, and wished she could fly back immediately.

"What about me?"

Without mentioning her own name, Peng Shiyu couldn't help but say, "I can go back and help too."

"Don't go back."

Grandpa Sun refused outright, saying, "Your brother is still so young, and his immune system is relatively weak. If you go to Shuibu Village, you'll bring the virus back with you."

The adults are fine, but it would be troublesome if it spread to the children.

"Poetic words, Grandpa Sun is right."

Lin Jingyu agreed, "My grandmother and Sister-in-law Lu and her son also need someone to take care of them, so you can stay in the county town and help everyone."

If anything happens in the county town, you can report it to us in Shuibu Village.

So it's important that you stay too.

"Alright, I'll follow your arrangements."

Upon hearing her words, Peng Shiyu did not insist on going with her anymore.

They began helping Grandpa Sun pack the medicines he needed to take.

Zhang Wenxi and Lin Ruinan rushed here as soon as they heard the news.

Needless to say, they will definitely go with us.

Grandpa Zhang and Wen Lechun and a few others will also be traveling together.

In addition, the Public Security Bureau dispatched several police officers to investigate the case.
