CHAPTER XXXV
"Let's pay the medical bills. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ο½iqugeγ info" The nurse in white pushed the payment machine in front of Sanae, "A total of 40,000." β
Located on the southern edge of the Taklamakan Desert, Andil Township is one of the most changing township administrative units on the edge of the Taklamakan Desert in the last decade. Those who come here today would never have imagined that ten years ago this prosperous place was just a poor rural area with only 136 households and more than 550 people. Thanks to the Xinjiang government's "Desert Control Project", Andier Township received enough investment assistance from the government within 10 years to make it the most successful township in Xinjiang. If Sanae and his party had come here ten years ago, Reimu would undoubtedly be dead: at that time, there was only one township health center, a mere six medical staff and four beds, and that kind of wound could not be treated in such harsh medical conditions, even if Yayi Yonglin was present in person, there was no way at all.
"Four, forty thousand?" Sanae was a little confused, "I mean...... Will it cost for this surgery?"
"Of course, we can't drag it out any longer. The nurse looked up impatiently. When she saw Sanae's green hair and delicate face, she felt a trace of disgust in her heart for no reason, "Our hospital is thinking about the patient's life, so we operated on her first, but the operation fee can't be owed like this all the time." If this continues, the medicine will definitely stop, and the bed can't be occupied by you all the time. β
"But," Sanae said with tears in her eyes, "can we hold off for a while? After all, we only came here last night, and some of the money has already been handed over to you, so we really can't do anything now!"
"Slowly, how can you let us give you a relief? Even if it is delayed for a while, I don't think you will be able to come up with this money!" the nurse hit the nail on the head to tell the cruel truth. She was already angry that she was transferred to this place to work, but now that she finally has a way to vent, she naturally wants to say it all happily, "Why are you young people like this? The hospital is not a public welfare organization, and who up and down does not need to eat?" You said that if we keep you now, a bed that could make money will be wasted, and maybe because of this bed, the whole hospital will lose money this year, and everyone's bonuses will be gone; if we don't keep you, will it still be a human thing to drive patients out? Look at you are also dressed like a big city child, what are you doing in such a place when you are idle? It will definitely cause us trouble. β
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" Sanae bowed to the nurse with tears in her eyes, "I'm really sorry!
"You...... This ......" Looking at Sanae, who kept bowing and apologizing, the nurse also began to reflect on her own words: Is it too much? What does it mean to send this fire to a child, "What I said just now was a bit excessive, but I can't help it if you tell me about hospitalization." Three days at most, and only three days. You'd better find a way to get some money. β
"Three days...... Sanae lowered her head and whispered, "I have to find a job in three days and make up 40,000 yuan......
"Okay, okay, why are young people so frustrated? It's not easy to find a job on the street?" A family member of a patient on the other side couldn't stand it anymore, and got up and comforted, "Besides, little girl, your conditions are so good, there must be no problem to be a model, right? Even if the requirements are not so high, being a waiter restaurant will definitely compete for your ......."
"Thank you, I'm fine, I just don't have any experience looking for a job. Sanae raised her head, barely squeezing out a smile, then stood up and bowed to the two of them, "Trouble two." I went back to my friend's hospital room. β
ββ¦β¦ Girl, I'll ask you something. Seeing Sanae walk out of the room, the patient's family leaned over to the nurse - gossip is always a popular sport, "What's the matter with this little girl?"
"What's going on...... the nurse and the family are also old acquaintances, her son is a well-known troublemaker in this area, and he has to go to the hospital every three or five days, "It's her friend, injured, very badly injured, and I don't know what drilled a big hole on the left side of her stomach...... Oops, it's scary to think about. You said that this person's life is really tenacious, and he hasn't died from such a serious injury, tut-tut......"
In a holographic window next to her, the narrator is broadcasting a new news:
"At four o'clock in the afternoon of the 11th local time, the current President of the European Union, Christian Magnus, and the European Minister of Defense Jeremy Keith, were assassinated. At 5 p.m. on the same day, the British government formally protested to the European governments and threatened a referendum on whether Britain would leave the European Union and become a sovereign state. According to the information just received by this station, US Secretary of State Garcia immediately held a press conference on this matter, saying that he expressed great regret over the discord within the European Union and called on all parties to look at the problem calmly......"

"The patient's physical condition is not too bad," Wang Shunfeng checked the body data panel, breathed a sigh of relief, and said to the three people next to the bed, "but the persistent high fever after the operation is a problem, if the fever subsides, there will basically be no problems." You are so lucky, it is not easy to get medical attention in time for such a serious injury in the desert. β
"So, doctor, is there anything else we can do?"
"What can be done? is to find a way to reduce the fever of this child. Wang Shunfeng looked at the girl who was lying on the bed and kept talking nonsense because of a high fever, and sighed, "I have been having a high fever of 38 degrees 5, and I can't use any antipyretic medicine in this case...... The hospital has given you a basin and a towel, right? Bring a basin of water to wipe her body. β
"Wipe your body? ...... Wipe yourself?" The green-haired girl looked at the patient lying on the two beds next to her, looking a little squirming, "But there are other people here......
"What's there to be ashamed of? Everyone is a patient, if anyone dares to come nonsense, you can just call the security guards, they are all good at retiring from the Construction Corps, and if anyone wants to compare the level of fighting, they can compare with each other. Wang Shunfeng glanced at a young man who was crying for his father and mother on the No. 12 hospital bed, "Or is there something mentally that I can't accept? I can't always let all female doctors come when I do surgery, right? At least I, the chief surgeon, am a man." β
"Ah, I see......," the green-haired girl bowed, "thank you very much, doctor. β
"No, no, no. Whoever is a doctor eats by doing this. Wang Shunfeng waved his hand, "I'll go first, I'll come back in two hours to see it, if the patient has any new situation, ring the bell in time, and the nurse will arrive as soon as possible." If there are no surprises, find a way to move out of the intensive care unit and go to the general ward this afternoon, otherwise you will also be financially stressed. β
"Thank you very much, doctor," this time the thank you was replaced by the blonde-haired girl next to her, who still had a broom in her hand for some reason. Wang Shunfeng gave the other party a smile and walked out of the ward.
What a poor child, so badly injured at such a young age.
While thinking like this, he walked into a room: "Xiao Wang, Xiao Wang, don't fall asleep, what if the patient has a ......?"
"Don't worry, Dr. Wang. The nurse, who was holding her head in her hand, replied in a languid voice, "There will be absolutely no problem...... Absolutely no problem, so let me sleep for five minutes first...... No, three minutes, three minutes......"
"Okay, okay, young man, be a little energetic, what kind of sleep in the middle of the day, hurry up and wash your face and wake up. β
"Oh, got it...... the nurse patted her cheek, "Doctor Wang, is there anything you have done here?"
"There are some things. Wang Shunfeng sighed and threw his wallet on the table, "As always, I'll pay for the patient's medical expenses in bed thirteen." I heard what you just said, those three girls can't afford to pay, right?"
"Doctor Wang?" As a newcomer to the hospital, the nurse has always admired this respected old doctor in the hospital, and at the same time felt very puzzled by his unexpected good deeds, "You...... Why do you do such a thing again?"
"Heh, after all, it's in the desert, it's not easy for everyone. Wang Shunfeng smiled and picked up a cup of hot water on the table, "Now that it's prosperous here, you can even take a hot shower." Ten years ago, there were only six of us in the township health center, and we could only drink the kind of water full of sand all day long, so we didn't have to think about bathing at all, and if we didn't help each other, we wouldn't have survived. Even if it is prosperous and developed, Li'er is still the same Li'er, and the old tradition cannot be lost. Besides, I'm an old bone, I have no children or daughters under my knees, and I have the state to take care of my old age, what are I doing with so much money?"
"You ......" the nurse didn't know what to say: as soon as this kind of words came out of the other person's mouth, she always had a feeling that she had become smaller, "you...... Alas, in this world, good people are not good to live. β
"It's not right to think like this, Xiao Wang," Wang Shunfeng put down the cup in his hand, "It's true that good people are not good to live, but if there are no good people in this world, then no one can live." There are always some people who want to be good people, and I can see it after living for so long, so let's take it as fate. β
When she said this, the nurse always had an illusion, as if a few wrinkles on Wang Shunfeng's face were stretched out like this.
"Well, you have a point. The patient in bed thirteen ......" called up the payment procedure, and when he saw the three big words on the holographic screen, the nurse's eyebrows began to jump, "Who are the parents of this child? β
"Oh, what's wrong?" Wang Shunfeng leaned over, and the nurse turned the holographic screen in his direction. Then, his expression immediately changed to the same as that of the nurse, "This is not responsible parents...... So Shui Ling, a girl, named Li Goudan?"

"Hmm......" sat on the edge of the bed, Sanae gently poked her cheek with her index finger, "Who the hell is itΒ·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·"
"Sanae?" Moving her chair, Mei Hong leaned over, "Are you still worried about Reimu?" or something else?"
"No, it's just," Sanae still had a confused look on her face, "as if she didn't know who paid for our medical bills......"
"Huh, paid the medical bills in advance?" Mei Hong didn't seem to understand what Sanae meant, "Shouldn't this be a good thing?"
"That's a good thing, but we don't know anyone here, so who did it?"
"What do you want to do with this kind of thing. Mei Hong put her arms around Sanae's shoulders, "Since someone has paid for it, shouldn't we just do it next?"
ββ¦β¦ Also, we're not ordinary people. Sanae nodded, but the gloom on her face still didn't dissipate, "But, we still have to find a way to go back to Gensokyo, if we want to go back, we must have funds to ......"
"Funds?" Mei Hong suddenly thought of Mao Yangzhou, and her heart trembled slightly. Holding back this mood swing, she put on a relaxed expression on her face, "I heard from the people who held me in custody, can't we go and collect some protection money?"
"No, no, no!" Hearing the word protection money, Sanae hurriedly waved her hand, "How can you do something illegal?"
ββ¦β¦ Oh yes, that guy is a **. Mei Hong sighed, "It's a pity, I feel like I can talk to him." β
"So, that person ...... too"
"Yes," Mei Hong looked at the blue sky outside the window, "like Ge Yiwei, he died in that explosion...... No, judging by his injuries at the time, I'm afraid he was dead before the explosion......"
"Although I had prepared for the worst before this happened, Mr. Ge really died...... "Sanae had a sad smile on her face, "There is always a feeling that there is no real feeling...... I still can't believe it......"
Looking at Sanae's face, Mei Hong couldn't speak at all. Indeed, who would survive such an explosion?
Instead, she gently patted Sanae on the back and brought a box of tissues from the side.
"No, not really. Sanae shook her head and pushed the tissue back, "Mr. Ge has always been like this, right? Bear everything silently in your heart, you must not cry, you will lose if you cry, you have to face everything strongly...... This is the last thing he left us, and we can't just throw it away. β
"Besides, there must be people over there who need this thing even more. Sanae, still with that miserable smile, pointed to the other side, "I...... I'll go out and find out if there's anything we can do. Don't run around. β
Seeing Sanae leave the ward, Meihong took out a tissue from the box and gently wiped away the tears in the corner of Marisha's eyes that were already asleep on the bed. Looking up at the time, it was already twelve o'clock in the afternoon.
On the bed, Reimu was still talking nonsense: "Xiaowei, you quickly swept the leaves in front of the shrine ......"
In a holographic window next to her, a journalist desperately reported: "I'm in London, where the biggest march in recent times has just erupted, and all public transport workers and shops in London have gone on strike to show their support for the march." As you can see, it's four o'clock in the morning in the UK, but the streets are still crowded with ordinary people marching and demanding that the European government give an acceptable explanation for the death of the current president and the Minister of Defence, chanting slogans against the European Union, and some crowds have already begun to clash with the police......"

What can't be done, what can't be done, what really can't be done.
Sanae hurried to the bathroom and locked herself in one of the rooms.
I really can't do it...... It really can't be done......
Pulling out the thing that Reimu had been holding on to from his arms, Sanae couldn't hold it anymore and cried while holding it.
"Mr. Ge...... Why did you die like that...... What are you going to do with us now......"
Sanae's tears dripped to the grip of the Type 98 pistol, where the words "Ge Yiwei" were crookedly engraved.
