Chapter 121: A Safe Road (July 21, 1/1 Subscription Request)
The days in Polythanvia passed faster than Sun Lien had imagined, and everyone was safe for the next twelve days. There were no unsightly local police officers to besiege the camp, no local armed men wandering around the neighborhood with ill intentions, and no rare cases of critically ill patients. All of a sudden, the years were quiet and smooth. These days, even Liu Tangchun is wondering if his large number of body armor and helmets have to find a way to sell them to the staff of the Seventh Bureau at a discount.
However, the embassy staff has not been evacuated from the camp, and in the past 12 days, the staff of the embassy in Poland have come one after another, and watching them carry their luggage from the embassy car, the medical team and the staff in the camp still murmur in their hearts. I haven't heard any news from outside, why does the embassy look like it wants to leave immediately?
On the evening of the thirteenth day, the doctors of the medical team were trying to snatch the masterpiece of the canteen master from the mouths of the wolf-like workers. Suddenly, Director Liu walked into the cafeteria with a serious face. He called all the doctors in a low voice, and then said in a low voice, "Don't eat yet, let's have a meeting together." β
There are not many things that can make doctors put their hands down and eat, except for patients who have problems, I am afraid that it is a meeting. Since Director Liu said that he wanted to hold a meeting, he would ...... After a glance at each other, the doctors all lowered their heads and stuffed the main dish left on the plate into their mouths.
The meeting was not presided over by Liu Tangchun, and he was only one of the "leaders" who attended the meeting. In charge of presiding over the meeting was Ambassador Huang to Polythanvia, whom Sun Lien had not yet met.
"Guys, we're meeting again. "Ambassador Huang is not too old, but he looks suave. However, the wrinkles between the eyebrows are deep, as if they have been carved into them. "The last time we met was when you first arrived...... he suddenly stopped talking and asked Liu Tangchun, "......Who is this doctor?"
Ambassador Huang asked Sun Lien, who was sitting next to him. Liu Tangchun hurriedly explained Sun Lien's identity, and then said a little embarrassed, "It just so happens that there are relatively few people in our team in the emergency department......
"It's okay, it's okay. Ambassador Huang waved his hand and smiled, "I just think that this little doctor is more face-to-face, and I don't seem to have seen him when I held a welcome meeting for you a year ago, so I just asked." β
He coughed lightly and continued what he had just said, "Originally, according to the general rule, the second time we meet should be the time when you end your term of office and prepare to return to China." But this time, we have to meet a little earlier. At the same time, I would like to inform you of the not-so-good news that your mandate is coming to an early end. β
The news caused a commotion in the conference room, although when things were not going well in Polytavia, everyone was looking forward to returning home from the end of his tenure sooner. But in the past ten days, it has been clear that ...... There's no other news. Why is there suddenly news that everyone needs to return home early?
"There have been some bad changes in the situation recently. This news may not be clear to you, but I happen to be here to inform you. Ambassador Huang probably saw everyone's concerns, and he waited for the commotion to subside naturally before raising his voice a little, "Three days ago, the Polythanvian government received a letter of ...... Afternoon. The war letter was sent by Sama, the son of the Dema Touren, who had previously defected from the Tushi tribe. In the letter, Sama declared that he had armed himself with the warriors of the tribe. And to overthrow the current government and establish a state with only Tushi. β
Everyone present, whether they were doctors or not, as long as it was the first time they heard the news, they all took a breath of cold air together. This is the standard "political instability". One of the biggest fears of every doctor who comes to Africa is that once there is a political change, it will be difficult to ensure the safety of doctors. In particular, after the other side announced that it would establish a state with "only the Tushi people", it was feared that in addition to war, there would be attacks against foreigners and other ethnic groups.
"Although we have assessed that the armed forces of the Polythanvian government are sufficient to quell the rebellion. However, additional damage in the course of war cannot be avoided. And...... They also offered a bounty for our medical team. Ambassador Huang sighed, "They offered a reward of 20,000 US dollars for the heads of the doctors of the Chinese medical team - 20,000 yuan for each person, whether they live or die." β
This news is no longer the level that makes everyone feel "worried", to be honest, when they heard the news, the first reaction of all doctors was disbelief, and then a thick chill appeared on their backs.
This is the first time that death threats have been made against doctors in the Chinese medical team. Everyone subconsciously looked at Sun Lien and Liu Tangchun - after all, everyone knew that the civil strife of the Tushi clan was inseparable from the patients they were dealing with.
"Director Liu, the old man you treated before is the highest-ranking great wizard in the Tushi tribe. Ambassador Huang sighed, "I guess it's because of this that Sama treats our medical team as a thorn in the flesh." I've already reported this to my superiors, and from today onwards, the number of guards in the camp will be doubled. We will have a security team dedicated to the medical team. Ambassador Huang tapped lightly on the table, "Also, from now on, you will stop taking patients, and if you can't be discharged immediately, the hospital over there in Port Melati will come and take overβour medical team will all leave the camp in two days." Arrive at the mouth of the Rufuma River by overland and evacuate you directly to the hospital ship. β
"What about the apprentices we brought?" The first doctor to ask was Dr. Qian Yihong, a gynecology doctor. She raised her hand and asked, "These apprentices we brought are all young people who have just started to get started. None of their basic medical education was complete, and we withdrew it...... What are they going to do?"
"We will talk to the Polytavian government about this issue in the future. Ambassador Huang obviously did not expect the medical team to ask this question, and he hesitated for a moment before explaining, "If the Polythanvian government agrees, maybe they can study in China as international students." If you are interested in this, we will give priority to you as their teachers. β
"That's better to be free. Chen Tianyang sat behind the table and said angrily, "My apprentice is simply stupid to death." If I want to go back to China, I have to teach him, and I'm afraid I'll be to death. β

News of the imminent evacuation of the medical team quickly spread throughout the camp. Of course, the camp still claims that the medical team is leaving the camp to make rounds elsewhere.
The rustic locals are quite reluctant, but there is nothing excessive. Patients who have family members or simply have been treated by the medical team have come to thank them with their own chickens in accordance with local custom. The conditions were a little worse, and there were no chickens to deliver, so they simply brought six bottles of locally produced beer and sent them to the camp respectfully.
As a result of the increased level of security, the medical teams in the camp have stopped treating patients. As a result, these thank-you gifts can only be stacked in a designated area at the entrance of the camp, and when they have accumulated enough waves, they are checked one by one by security personnel and placed in the camp. For a while, the workers in the camp had the illusion that they were still in the country - isn't this the designated temporary storage point for express delivery at the entrance of the community!
All the patients in the camp were discharged. On the last day, the old wizard and Usama also appeared in the discharge procession.
"Thank you, Dr. Sun. The old wizard thanked Sun Lien in not very authentic Chinese, and even shook his hand. "Thank you for saving my life. β
Sun Lien wanted to be polite, but was blocked back by the old wizard with a waist knife handed over, "This is a small gift, for you - every doctor has it, and you are no exception." β
Felipe translated the old wizard's words beside him, and then explained to Sun Lien in a low voice, "This knife is a magic weapon that wizards bless ordinary people, and it can save a lot of trouble if you carry it on your bodyβyou'd better go ahead." β
When Sun Lien heard this, he took the waist knife, and then said seriously, "Thank you for the gift." β
Osama pushed the wheelchair and said to Sun Lien, "We are still communicating with the government about Sama. They still don't agree with us sending someone to clean it up, but we've told the leaders of the other tribes to be on guard, and we've tried to keep them in from becoming Sama's accomplices. He was a little embarrassed and said, "We've heard about the bounty." Rest assured, we will resolve this matter as soon as possible. β
After sending Usama and the old wizard away, and the last wave of discharged patients all left, Felipe cautiously approached Sun Lien and asked, "You guys...... You're not going out on a medical tour this time, are you?"
"Why not?" said all the members of the medical team, and for the sake of safety, they must not disclose their itinerary to other camp staff, including Chinese workers. Therefore, Sun Lien can only deny this, "This time we are going to the Rufuma River valley for a round, and it will take a long time." β
"You don't bring any of your local students, and even the translators only bring Chinese translators. Felipe sighed, "You may not know it in the camp, but it's been rumored out there for a long time - Sama is offering a reward of $50,000 for the head of a Chinese doctor." β
Sun Lien smiled bitterly twice, "It's the first time I've heard of this. However, we did go on rounds. He patted Felipe on the waist knife, "You see, we still have the blessing of the Great Wizard, it must be fine." β
"I can't keep up this time, if I have a chance in the future, I'll see you again in China. Felipe smiled, hugged Sun Lien's shoulder and patted it twice, and then lowered his voice and said, "If there is a problem, just take out the knife, it will work." He let go of Sun Lien, then smiled and waved his hand at him, "Hurry up, your team is going to assemble." Stay safe and have a safe journey. β
