Chi Yanduo's black eyes looked coldly at the troublemaker in front of him. He swung his hand and the man staggered due to the inertia.
The man looked up angrily at the person who had just attacked him. Upon closer inspection, he found that it was Major General Chi, who was well-known and prestigious in the base.
His eyes suddenly widened and his dark face turned pale with fear.
The man shouted nervously: "Chi...Major General Chi..."
The little boy who had been silent next to him saw the man's appearance, stepped back, and lowered his head, not daring to look up.
Chi Yanduo asked coldly: "What's going on?"
Ling Qiuyuan looked at the man standing in front of her, a trace of surprise flashed in her eyes, and a warm feeling surged in her heart.
The man was questioned, and he pointed at Ling Qiuyuan behind Chi Yanduo and cursed again, "My son's face wasn't that serious today. He came here today, and he turned into this horrible state when he returned!"
Ling Qiuyuan stepped forward from behind him and asked, "Are you sure this child came here for treatment today?"
She looked at Chi Yanduo's worried eyes, shook her head gently, and whispered, "I can do it."
The man shouted harshly, "That's right! You must give me an explanation today."
Ling Qiuyuan's commotion startled several onlookers. She called over a nurse and said, "Go get the list of all the patients who have come to the clinic for consultation today."
Nurse: "Okay."
Ling Qiuyuan walked over to the boy and was about to squat down to talk to him when Chi Yanduo grabbed her wrist and said, "It might be contagious."
"It's okay." Ling Qiuyuan waved her hand.
After the end of the world, most viruses in the human body mutated. Some people regained their health because of awakening their special abilities, while others were infected with harmful gases, which made their condition worse and made them more likely to suffer from infectious diseases.
This virus spreads widely and silently, so their medical staff will wear medical masks and medical gloves as precautions.
It's just that the gloves had been taken off when I was massaging Chi Yanduo's head just now.
She put her gloves back on and finally looked the boy in the eye.
The boy accidentally met her soft eyes and looked away in panic.
Ling Qiuyuan noticed the boy's attitude was different, but she tried to keep her tone gentle. She asked, "Little boy, did you really come to the clinic for treatment today, and did you treat me?"
The boy suddenly grabbed the corner of his clothes and nodded sullenly: "Yeah."
Seeing the child's answer, the man's face lit up with joy and he continued, "My son is definitely right! Don't try to shirk your responsibility."
Ling Qiuyuan's eyes flashed with doubt, and the man's thunderous noise was in her ears again. She smiled helplessly, "Sir, please calm down and don't scare the child. If this really happened here, we will definitely give you a satisfactory answer."
The man opened his mouth and was about to say something, but was scared back by Chi Yanduo's eyes.
At this time, the nurse came over with the registration information book of all the patients who had seen the clinic that day.
Ling Qiuyuan took it and asked the boy, "Little boy, can you tell me your name?"
When the boy heard this, he subconsciously glanced at the man.
The man said impatiently: "Why are you looking at me? Don't you know your own name?!"
The boy shuddered and said timidly to Ling Qiuyuan, "My name is Qiu Ci."
Ling Qiuyuan glanced at the man unhappily. With such a bad attitude towards the child, was he really just trying to solve the child's health problem?
Chi Yanduo sneered at the man: "Watch your attitude!"
The man's face froze, he lowered his eyes and said nothing.
Ling Qiuyuan opened the register and carefully browsed the information inside.
A few minutes later, she saw Qiu Ci's name somewhere.
Ling Qiuyuan frowned slightly. It turned out to be someone who had come today. She looked at the name and found that the doctor in charge was actually herself!
The man saw her expression and didn't care whether she was surprised or not. However, because Chi Yanduo was present, he didn't dare to shout anymore. He just said sarcastically, "Miss Ling is really a noble person who forgets things easily."
Chi Yanduo noticed that Ling Qiuyuan's expression was not right and asked her, "What's wrong?"
Ling Qiuyuan hesitated as she said, "I am indeed the doctor in charge, but I'm sure I didn't take care of this child today, nor have I handled a case like this before."
She pursed her lips and whispered, "If I say this, do you think I'm making excuses?"
Chi Yanduo: "No, I believe you."
The trust in his eyes was so genuine that Ling Qiuyuan's bewildered heart suddenly calmed down.
Chi Yanduo: "The most urgent thing is that we have to find out the truth about this matter now."
Ling Qiuyuan nodded: "Yeah."
Chi Yanduo: "Did you leave the clinic while you were on duty today?"
Ling Qiuyuan pondered: "I was away for a while. There was a problem with a patient in another ward, and someone asked me to go over and help."
Chi Yanduo: "Do you remember exactly when it happened?"
Ling Qiuyuan glanced at the clock on the wall and said, "It should be between one and three in the afternoon."
Chi Yanduo: "Who are the doctors on duty today? Could it be that someone is helping you with your consultation during this time?"
Ling Qiuyuan lowered her eyes and recalled: "The doctor on duty at the clinic today..."
The two of them were talking back and forth, and the man began to get impatient. He said angrily, "What? You dare to do it but not admit it. Now you want to find a scapegoat?"
Ling Qiuyuan glanced at him indifferently, then turned to the child and said softly, "Little boy, can you tell me what the doctor who examined you today looks like? For example, whether it's a man or a woman, and roughly how old he is?"
The boy seemed a little uneasy. He said, "It's a man..." Suddenly realizing the word he blurted out, he immediately covered his mouth in fear and changed the subject to, "It's you, my sister."
The man's terrifying gaze retracted and he returned to his previous expression.
But how could Chi Yanduo not know what the problem was? He patted Ling Qiuyuan on the shoulder and comforted her, "It's okay, leave it to me next."
The man refused to agree upon hearing this and shouted, "Major General Chi, even though you are a prestigious commander in the base, you can't use your official position to shield others, right?"
Before Chi Yanduo could speak, a sweet voice came from outside the door.
“Is finding out the truth a cover-up?”
Everyone's eyes were focused on the person who came in, and they saw a delicate and sweet little girl walking in with a doll in her arms.
She happily greeted the two people inside: "Brother Yan Duo, Sister Qiu Yuan~"
The man's face showed a fierce look, "Where did you come from, little girl? Go home and drink your milk!"
Tang Anan tilted her head and glanced at him doubtfully, her eyes innocent: "Where did this dirty thing come from?"
After hearing this, Ling Qiuyuan couldn't help but smile, but she knew it was inappropriate at the moment, so she forced herself to hold it back.
