Chapter 217 Self-defense powder for grandparents, parents, and cousins at the hospital
Amidst the smell of disinfectant in the hospital, Gu Baobao sat on a chair beside her grandmother's bed, seemingly quietly peeling an apple, the long apple peel swirling and hanging down.
Only she knew that at that moment, another "window" was open in her mind.
【Defu.】
She silently recited it in her heart.
[Host! Defu is at your service 24 hours a day!]
The system's electronic voice exuded a sense of readiness to charge into battle at any moment.
From now on, we will begin continuous dynamic scanning and anomaly monitoring of a 50-meter radius around the courtyard house.
The focus of monitoring will be on targets exhibiting abnormal fluctuations in vital signs, carrying suspicious items, or displaying unusual behavioral patterns. Energy consumption will be deducted from merit points, prioritizing monitoring accuracy.
Gu Baobao gave the instruction, and the apple peel was evenly and continuously removed from her hands.
【Yes, sir!】
Deford's voice became excited.
[Starting wide-area biological scanning module... Loading behavioral pattern analysis algorithm... Merit points are being consumed in small amounts... Ding! Monitoring network deployed!]
With a coverage radius of fifty meters, no rustling sound can escape the system's keen eye! Host, you're like someone with divine eyes now!
Gu Baobao's lips curved into an almost imperceptible smile.
Heavenly Eye?
More or less.
At least it will expose those who want to cause trouble in the shadows.
She peeled the apple, cut it into small pieces, and fed it to her grandmother.
The old lady chewed on a sweet apple, her eyes squinting as she smiled:
"Our baby is so good at peeling apples, they're even sweeter than other people's."
Gu Baobao smiled, but she was on edge.
Although the attack at the alley entrance last night was quickly dealt with, as Lu Zhanming said, it was just a probing pawn, a stone thrown out to attract fire.
The real wick and shadow, like poisonous fish lurking in the deep sea, have not yet surfaced.
She took out a flat metal box about the size of a palm from her cloth bag, or rather, from her storage space.
The box is exquisitely crafted, resembling some kind of specially made powder box or inkpad box.
"Grandma, Dad, Mom, Dong-guk,"
She opened the box; inside was a fine, almost odorless, pale yellow powder.
"This is some self-defense powder I recently prepared. Keep it with you at all times, either by your bedside or in your pocket."
In case... I mean in case, something unexpected happens, and someone tries to harm you, don't hesitate, just throw it at their face or any exposed skin. Remember, whatever you do, don't get it on yourself.
Li Fenfang picked up the small box, looked at it, and then smelled it; it didn't smell at all.
"Baby, what's this powder... for?"
Gu Baobao remained expressionless, her tone as calm as if she were introducing cold medicine:
"Oh, it's nothing much. It just makes you feel pain from the very marrow of your bones, so painful that you roll around on the ground. At the same time, your skin is so itchy that you want to scratch it off. It lasts for about four to six hours."
I'm the only one with the antidote, and it needs to be used promptly, otherwise it might leave some... well, psychological trauma.
The ward fell silent instantly.
Gu Jianqiang forgot to turn the page of the newspaper in his hand.
Gu Dongguo almost choked on the mouthful of water he had just drunk.
Li Fenfang's hand trembled as she held the box, then she quickly and carefully placed it back on the bedside table, as if it were a miniature bomb.
Even Grandma Gu, who was happily eating an apple in her hospital bed, stopped chewing and blinked at her granddaughter.
"Baby, my baby..."
Gu Jianqiang swallowed hard.
"This...isn't this a bit too much..."
He couldn't find the right words for a moment.
ruthless?
That doesn't seem right; the daughter did it for self-defense.
This self-defense method sounds so chilling!
Gu Baobao closed the box, handed it to Li Fenfang, and said calmly:
"Mother, keep this safe. In extraordinary times, we need extraordinary measures. We won't harm anyone, but we also can't let anyone harm us."
I've specially treated this stuff; it's not very contagious. As long as you act quickly, you won't accidentally hurt yourselves.
She paused, then added:
“I have an even milder version here, I’ll share some with the hospital security guards later.”
Gu Dongguo silently wiped away non-existent cold sweat from his forehead, looking at his cousin's calm face that seemed to say, "The weather's so nice today, let's discuss how to make someone suffer unbearable pain."
I have a completely new and awe-inspiring understanding of the term "miracle doctor".
Never offend a highly intelligent doctor, especially one who has strange and unusual prescriptions and has exceptionally clear eyes.
His cousin is clearly the pinnacle of this kind of doctor.
