Chapter 158 I hope you die!
A young doctor in charge of laboratory testing rushed in. "That bottle of medicine contains... a highly mutated strain of Streptococcus! It multiplies rapidly upon contact with air. Once infected through a wound, the mortality rate is over 90%."
"Why would she bring germs in here? Besides, how did she bring the germs in?"
Su Tang was confused. He thought Su Xinyao did this with the determination to die.
But by doing this, is she going to die with her?
"First seal off this place and conduct a comprehensive disinfection and testing. We don't know how much germs have leaked out yet."
The dean stood aside and spoke nervously.
Lu Xiao grabbed Su Tang's wrist and said, "Stay here and don't move. I'll take care of it."
Su Tang grabbed his arm and said, "I want to see her."
Hearing Su Tang's words, Lu Xiao was stunned for a moment, but did not stop him.
He knew that Su Tang must have something to do.
When Su Xinyao was brought in by the guards, her hair was disheveled but she had a smile on her lips.
"Su Tang, do you want to know why I brought this?"
She shook her handcuffed wrists, and the chains clinked in the silence.
"In your previous life, you died of a postpartum infection. Wasn't that streptococcus? I specifically asked experts to cultivate a variant that's ten times more powerful than the one back then."
"You should have died a long time ago. How could you still be alive?"
Su Tang subconsciously protected her stomach: "You are crazy, there are so many wounded here."
"Am I crazy?"
Su Xinyao suddenly raised her voice, and the iron chains rattled.
"Why do you want to take away my life? Everything in the Su family should be inherited by me. Even this natural disaster should be a stepping stone for me to climb up by stepping on the corpses of others!"
"Why, why do you!"
She suddenly broke free from the guard's grip and was kicked to the ground by Lu Xiao the moment she pounced on Su Tang.
Su Xinyao's forehead hit the corner of the medicine shelf, and drops of blood slid down her brow.
She looked at Su Tang with eyes full of hatred.
She had a dream in Hong Kong. In the dream, she was smart and beautiful, and she and Zhou Rui were truly in love.
But why, why did all this change?
Variable, the variable is Su Tang.
She should have died, why, why not only did she not die, but she was still alive and well.
Su Tang looked at Su Xinyao, who was lying on the ground like a madman, and a complex emotion surged in his heart.
"Su Xinyao, wake up."
"Even without me, your life wouldn't be what you imagined. Your greed and viciousness are the root of your own destruction."
Because the heroine in the original book is not like Su Xinyao at all.
The heroine got everything with her own hands.
Instead, it was the original owner who lost everything because of his arrogance.
Now, the two people's experiences are reversed, but the endings are the same.
"Shut up!"
"I hope you die! Why don't you die? Why, why don't you die!"
Su Xinyao screamed and struggled to get up, but was held down by the guards.
"It's all your fault! If it weren't for you, how could I have ended up like this? Zhou Rui would love me, everything in the Su family would be mine, and I would be the happiest person!"
Lu Xiao frowned and winked at the guards, signaling them to take Su Xinyao away.
He walked to Su Tang and patted her shoulder gently: "She has gone completely crazy."
Su Tang shook his head, with a hint of worry in his eyes: "What if the germs brought here..."
"don’t worry."
Lu Xiao held her hand and gave her a reassuring look.
"I have ordered a complete lockdown and disinfection. We will quickly find the source and extent of the spread of the germs and will ensure no one gets hurt."
At that moment, a nurse rushed in, her face pale. "Director, this is bad! Several of the injured have developed fever and difficulty breathing, which are very similar to the symptoms of a streptococcal infection!"
Everyone's heart suddenly rose to their throat.
The dean hurriedly said, "Quick, isolate them and run tests immediately!"
Lu Xiao's expression also turned serious: "It seems that the germs have begun to spread. Tangtang, you stay here, I will go and check the situation."
But Su Tang held him back: "I'll go with you. I'm a doctor, maybe I can help."
Lu Xiao hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded: "Okay, be careful and don't come into contact with germs."
The two followed the nurse to the isolation ward, where they saw several injured people lying on the beds, their faces flushed, their breathing rapid, and they looked very painful.
Doctors are working intensively to examine and treat the patient.
Su Tang carefully observed the symptoms of the injured man, frowning. "The situation is not good. These symptoms are much more serious than ordinary streptococcal infection. It seems that Su Xinyao is right. This is a highly mutated streptococcus."
Lu Xiao looked at Su Tang's focused expression, feeling both worried and proud.
The director turned to the people around him and said, "Increase disinfection efforts. All medical staff who have come into contact with these injured patients must be examined and isolated. Also, transfer another batch of the best antibiotics. We must do our best to treat them."
"I'll contact someone."
Just when everyone was busy, Su Xinyao was escorted past the ward door.
She saw the scene inside and a smile appeared on her face: "Did you see? This is what will happen to you! Su Tang, you can't escape!"
When Su Tang heard her words, he was shocked and became more determined to cure these wounded people.
She turned around and said to Lu Xiao, "We must quickly develop a method to combat this pathogen, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous."
Lu Xiao nodded. "The dean has contacted the best microbiology experts in the country, and they will be here soon. We will definitely get through this difficult time."
In the next few days, the hospital was filled with a tense atmosphere.
Doctors worked day and night to study the germs and find a cure.
Su Tang and Lu Xiao hardly slept a wink, always keeping an eye on the condition of the wounded and the progress of the research.
Finally, thanks to the efforts of experts, they developed a special antibiotic that can effectively fight this highly mutated streptococcus.
When the first batch of antibiotics was injected into the wounded, their symptoms were quickly relieved.
Everyone's hanging hearts finally settled down.
Su Tang looked at the wounded who were gradually getting better and smiled with relief.
Lu Xiao walked to her side and hugged her gently: "Thank you for your hard work, everything is over."
"Where's Su Xinyao? Where is she now?"
When Lu Xiao heard Su Tang's question, his face turned very bad.
"She is suspected of poisoning and has been detained. She will be tried in a few days. She will not be able to escape the death penalty."
"I think her abnormal behavior may be related to Zhou Rui. Lu Xiao, go meet her and tell her so."
Su Tang tiptoed closer to Lu Xiao and whispered something in his ear.
"Are you sure?"
"It's just a guess, but I think my guess might be accurate."
Perhaps, Su Xinyao's return this time and the actions she took were closely related to Zhou Rui.
Zhou Rui is the male protagonist. Did he instruct Su Xinyao to do something?
