Chapter 515 Someone Always Has to Sacrifice
"If she can leave, then we should leave too. What right do you have to keep us locked up like this!" The students' unease was reignited, and the conflict was directed at Wen Ni.
"Are you kidding me? Wen Ni is going out to research ways to solve the epidemic and save everyone! She's useful, but what use are you? Can you cure diseases or develop miracle drugs?" Qin Yuan's eyes widened, and she launched into a tirade, "Have you all gone stupid from studying too much? Your brains are really messed up!"
“According to what the police just said, doctors all over the country are trying to find a solution, but so far they haven’t come up with a relatively reliable treatment plan. How can you guarantee that she will be able to develop it after she gets out? Is she a god? If she’s that amazing, why is she still studying at our school?” Liu Nan led the charge, pressing aggressively.
“Our Miss Wen Ni is willing. Going to school is just for fun for her! Is that not allowed?” Qin Yuan said defiantly, looking like she was ready to fight. “But you are right about one thing: our Miss Wen Ni is a goddess, a great goddess! She personally experienced two major plagues, and the effective medicines for both plagues came from her. Her abilities are far more powerful than you can imagine!”
"Two major epidemics!?"
Although the students didn't quite understand, they could sense that it sounded very impressive.
Seeing that the winds were about to shift again, Liu Nan narrowed her eyes and turned her attention to Qin Yuan, "And who are you? Are you from our school? Why are you protecting Wen Ni so much? What's your relationship with her?"
"What my relationship with her is none of your business."
Qin Yuan rolled his eyes so hard they almost reached the sky. He was too lazy to pay them any more attention and turned to Wen Ni angrily. "If I had known they would be so ungrateful, Miss Wen Ni, you should have left Hong Kong immediately when you first discovered the signs of the epidemic and not cared about their lives!"
"Qin Yuan," Wen Ni shook her head, stopping Qin Yuan's extreme remarks. "I stayed not for anyone else, but simply to observe the development and characteristics of the epidemic. Given the widespread panic at the time, anyone leaving would be amplified, creating a situation that would be difficult to manage and control. If I really wanted to leave, regardless of whether the city was locked down or not, who could stop me? But I understand better than anyone that the epidemic must not be allowed to spread under any circumstances, because that would threaten more lives!"
"See that? That's what you call having a broad perspective!" Mu Yang couldn't help but stand up and point at the group of troublemaking students. "Everyone is trying to solve the problem, but you guys are just making things worse!"
"If I remember correctly, you just said you also wanted to sneak away, right?" Ma Weiwei teased in a low voice from the side.
"Tsk, shut up." Mu Yang retorted.
"Comrade Wen Ni, have you thought it through? If you decide to leave the school and enter the research institute, I can arrange for someone to bring you out safely," Dean Feng's voice came through the phone. "After all, your identity is special. Even if you want to leave, no one will dare to say anything. You are Dean Cheng's apprentice, and it is my duty to take care of you on his behalf."
Judging from Dean Feng's words, it seems that he thought the same way as those students, using Wen Ni's application to join the research as an excuse to escape the disaster area!
“This is the first intensive care unit. If I can stay here, I will be able to get firsthand information about the patients more quickly and effectively, which will be more beneficial to my research! So I have decided not to go to the research institute and to conduct the experiments here.” Wen Ni’s voice was clear and cold as she made a decisive decision. “However, I will have to trouble Dean Feng to help me set up an independent laboratory in the medical building of our school and transport the testing instruments and experimental reagents I need.”
"If you insist on doing it this way, then so be it. Do you need... a few people assigned to you?" After saying this, Dean Feng added seriously, "However, our medical resources here are also very strained, and I'm afraid we can't spare too many people for you. After all, everyone is working hard and focusing on their research and saving patients!"
When he said that, Wen Ni already understood what he meant.
Dean Feng Tao had doubts about her abilities and was reluctant to allocate too many resources and personnel to her, also out of self-interest. The deans were outwardly friendly but inwardly at odds. After all, she was someone who had made contributions, and the fact that Feng Tao agreed to provide her with support was already a great favor!
“Given the current situation, all the medical staff in the city are stretched thin, which I understand.” Wen Ni’s tone was cold and deep. “So I don’t need you to send me any extra people; I can handle it myself.”
"That would be the best!" Dean Feng's tone immediately brightened.
"Please make arrangements as soon as possible, Dean Feng."
"good."
After hanging up the phone, Wen Ni handed the communicator back to Chen Rong.
Chen Rong took it but did not leave immediately.
"Colonel Hu had told me that your identity was unusual, but I didn't expect it to be this unusual."
"Regardless of my identity, the premise is always the same: I am a soldier of China. I am ready to fight for the security of the country anytime, anywhere." Wen Ni said solemnly, then lowered her voice slightly, "Also, this outbreak is suspicious. I ask Lieutenant Chen to report this and request an investigation by higher authorities."
"Okay, I understand."
Chen Rong's eyes were solemn. "Chinese soldiers will never allow any danger that threatens national security to exist! In the days to come, I will lead a team to be stationed at the school. Contact me anytime if anything happens!"
"good."
I watched as Instructor Chen got into the car.
A suppressed voice came from behind, "Are you satisfied now? Wen Ni stayed here, conducting research right under your noses to save your lives! You ungrateful bastards!"
"She's doing research, but we don't know if it's reliable or not," the students murmured.
"She's about our age, what experience could she possibly have? I certainly don't trust her!"
"No matter what, they won't let us leave. Anyway, we've already expressed our demands, so let's go back and wait."
The group of students dispersed, grumbling amongst themselves.
This angered Qin Yuan, causing her blood pressure to rise.
Liu Nan, who had been standing still the whole time, was clearly dissatisfied with the result. She stood there resentfully, staring at Wen Ni for a long while before reluctantly turning around!
"Liu Nan, stop right there!"
The shepherd shouted at her in a loud voice to stop her.
"At this critical juncture, what personal grudge could possibly make you target Wen Ni so indiscriminately?"
"Do you need a reason to hate someone?" Liu Nan said this with her back to them, then turned and left.
"Heh? Then you'd better pray that you don't get infected with this virus, otherwise if we Wen Ni develop a cure, we absolutely won't save you!" Mu Yang's voice was very loud, and his words were quite ruthless.
"Alright, there's no need to get angry with her." Ma Weiwei pressed down on Mu Yang's arm.
Wen Ni walked to their side.
"Don't you two think I'm just making empty boasts that I can develop a miracle drug?"
"When have you ever failed to do something you've said you would?" Mu Yang blinked. "We believe in you, you can definitely do it!"
“But there is some danger. Our school’s medical building has been full of patients these days. If you stay there every day, you are very likely to get infected,” Ma Weiwei said worriedly.
“Someone always has to make sacrifices.” Wen Ni smiled faintly, then her cold expression returned. “And I am always ready.”
The determination in her eyes and the unwavering resolve etched into her very being moved them!
