Break out of the courtyard

Chapter 871 Shock

As the first hydrotherapy cabin was sent into the emergency department, the nurse in charge of blocking the door became even busier, pushing boxes of empty medicine bottles and medicine boxes out the door. The people outside were scared and worried about the situation in the emergency department, mainly because the amount of empty medicine bottles and medicine boxes piled up like a mountain was too large!
When Hua Lao, Zheng Lao, Tang Xin, Chen Shuting, and the others who arrived later discovered that many medications had already been sent to the emergency department before they arrived, they realized that many medications had already been sent to the emergency department.

Thinking of all the medications and the haste with which they were rushed to the emergency room, the head of the Nanshan military camp spoke in a much softer voice, "Old Hua, what do you think of that foreigner with the fake passport? What should we do?"

Hua Lao said grimly, "Since it's a fake passport, there's no need to worry too much. Detain and interrogate him directly!"

When Mr. Zheng heard that they had also captured a Magnesian, he knew that his guess was correct.

However, the subsequent external statements need to be considered. After all, there are so many foreign reporters outside, and they will definitely spread the explosive news tonight.

You know, since the collapse of North Sudan, European and American public opinion has gradually begun to target the mainland.

Therefore, we must first seize the initiative in public opinion in order to control the aftermath of this explosion, so as to prevent foreigners from distorting right and wrong!
While they were talking, Director Wang and Liu Yuan also rushed over. Huang Wenli and Ding Ning were blocked in the underground passage because of their low rank.

Director Wang rushed over and wanted to comfort Tang Xin and Chen Shuting, but she didn't expect that as soon as she arrived, Chen Shuting expressed her frustration.

"Director Wang, we originally wanted to use Umbrella Corporation's bodyguards to guard this place, but you insisted on using your people!" Chen Shuting still had a little bit of rationality left in her anger, and did not curse at this nominal elder.

"Now, we don't know whether our husband is alive or dead, you must give us an explanation!"

Zhang Nan supported his mother Tang Xin and chimed in, "The Hong Kong Peace Academy is located in Central, Hong Kong Island. Despite the chaotic environment, under the protection of Umbrella Corp's bodyguards, they've never had a single fight, let alone a devastating explosion like tonight!"

Hua Lao, Director Wang, and others were rendered speechless by the rebuttal. Director Wang, in particular, had only learned that Zhang Heping had been injured in the explosion and had rushed over in a hurry, knowing nothing else. How was she supposed to answer?

As for Elder Hua, upon hearing Chen Shuting's veiled insults, he felt an unnamed anger with nowhere to vent it.

"Shu Ting, we will definitely get to the bottom of this matter and give Heping and you an explanation!" Although Director Wang didn't know whether anyone was caught tonight, she judged that the explosion tonight was definitely a premeditated crime.

Otherwise, how could it be possible that the explosion happened to hit Zhang Heping who was out? You know, Zhang Heping is usually a very homely person, either staying at home or in the laboratory.

Just when Chen Shuting was about to make further trouble, the hydrotherapy cabin that had just been pushed in was pushed out again, instantly attracting the attention of others.

In particular, when everyone saw a person covered in black lying in the hydrotherapy cabin filled with light blue solution, they were all shocked.

How can a normal person soak in liquid?
Don't you need to breathe?

"Who's in here?" Chen Shuting's voice was trembling, and she had completely lost the angry and aggressive tone she had just had.

The male doctor whose sleeve was grabbed by Chen Shuting said anxiously, "It's the driver. We need to get him to the intensive care unit right now. Please move aside!"

When Chen Shuting heard that it was not Zhang Heping, she seemed to have used up all her strength. Her arms dropped down dejectedly and her body was a little shaky. Fortunately, Director Wang and Mr. Zheng's daughter came forward to support her.

"Someone of you can call and urge them to hurry up. Teacher Zhang is still waiting for the hydrotherapy cabin. Tell them to hurry up!" The nurse blocking the door shouted loudly. Seeing that many people outside the door took out their phones and started making calls, her expression relaxed a little.

But the next second, she heard the doctor inside persuading Teacher Zhang to rest again, which made the young nurse very worried.

Teacher Zhang asked her to block the door and not allow anyone else to enter, especially his family. She could actually understand Teacher Zhang's feelings.

After all, no one wants their loved ones to see them after being burned beyond recognition, but they also need their loved ones to accompany them afterwards.

However, when Teacher Zhang had IV needles inserted into his head and limbs and was hooked up to five large bottles of liquid, he was still writing and drawing, which they could not understand.

Such severe burns must be so painful!

He didn't even use anesthetics or painkillers!
"Xiao Lin, this is what Teacher Zhang just wrote. He asked you to hand it over to someone outside." A doctor handed over a stack of papers, his face full of helplessness and worry.

A nurse named Kobayashi took the papers and quickly sorted out who the papers should be given to based on the names written on the folds of each paper.

"Shuting!" Nurse Lin called out, handing out a piece of paper without caring who took it. With Elder Hua and the others present, she wasn't worried about anyone taking it.

"Aunt Wang!"

"Elder Hua!"

Nurse Kobayashi continued to read and distributed the papers one by one.

Zhang Nan supported his mother Tang Xin and went to Chen Shuting's side. He looked at the words on the note and whispered, "Don't worry, I'm not going to die yet!"

"You guys go back and rest first. Have the Hong Kong and Macau media break the news of my truck bomb attack overnight and see who jumps out!"

Director Wang frowned after reading the note given to her.

Zhang Heping just asked her to find a way to appease Ma Xiuzhen who was about to come to Shenzhen to celebrate the Spring Festival.

There were quite a few papers on Hua Lao's side. Some explained the recovery of the small return capsule, some explained the launch and testing of the spacecraft as originally planned, some explained the use of the five doses of Lifespan 120 medicine, and some explained the manufacturing of equipment and drug development needed for Zhang Heping's follow-up treatment, etc.

However, there is no mention of anything related to tonight's explosion!
Hua Lao guessed that Zhang Heping was either blaming the poor security here, or he was preparing to retaliate later!

Just as Chen Shuting frowned and started making a phone call, and Tang Xin shook her head, unwilling to leave, Nurse Xiaolin behind the door received a note and spoke again, "Zhang Nan, Teacher Zhang wants you to come in."

When Tang Xin and Chen Shuting heard this, they both squeezed to the door.

However, Nurse Kobayashi still stopped the others from entering the door on the grounds that too many people could easily bring in bacteria.

"Mom, little mom, don't worry!" Zhang Nan seemed to realize something and tried to suppress the panic in his heart. He tried to speak in a calm tone, "I'll go in and take a look at the situation first, and then come out and tell you."

"Also, call Xiaolong and Xiaohu and ask them to get the hydrotherapy cabin ready for Dad!"

Tang Xin grabbed her second daughter Zhang Nan's hand with tears in her eyes, trying to hold it tightly, but she couldn't use any strength because of the panic in her heart.

Zhang Nan shook his mother's hand with his backhand, glanced at his stepmother, then resolutely let go and walked to the door.

"Wait a moment, I'll spray some alcohol all over your body to disinfect it!" Nurse Kobayashi said, taking out a bottle of alcohol spray from behind the door, spraying it on Zhang Nan, and asking Zhang Nan to turn around.

Finally, Nurse Kobayashi handed Zhang Nan a white hat and mask, and only let her into the emergency department after Zhang Nan put them on.

Although Zhang Nan was mentally prepared, her heart skipped a beat when she opened the curtains and saw a wounded man covered in blood, with a wound on his neck bleeding, sitting on the bed and staring at her with bloodshot eyes.

Then, Zhang Nan's tears burst out.

There was a female nurse who was peeling off the burnt skin on Zhang Heping's right arm. She threw the note Zhang Heping had just written aside, and then carefully peeled off the burnt dead skin.

The note was picked up by a male doctor nearby and handed to Zhang Nan, who was standing there crying silently and at a loss. "Teacher Zhang is very strong. She suffered such severe burns but didn't even make a sound."

"You are his daughter, you should be strong too!"

Just then, Zhang Nian's voice came from outside the door, "Second sister, how is Dad? Is he alright?" Zhang Nan wiped away her tears and snot haphazardly, wiped her hands on her clothes, and then reached out her slightly trembling hand to take the note that her father had just written to her.

"I'm fine. Take your mom and stepmother back first, and then come see me outside the intensive care unit tomorrow!"

"Dad..." Zhang Nan looked up at his severely burned father, and could not associate him with the word "fortunately".

Even though Zhang Nan had a thousand words to say, his bitter little mouth seemed to have lost its proper function and was blocked!
"You can't go over there!" The male doctor next to him stretched out his hands to stop Zhang Nan from going forward. "Teacher Zhang is asking us to peel off his dead skin. This process is very easy to get infected!"

"Letting you in is already a huge risk. If you go in now, you will increase the risk of infection!"

Zhang Nan was stopped in her tracks by these words. Just as she stood there stiffly, she saw the unrecognizable and bloody person on the bed waving at her, motioning her to leave.

Seeing this, several female nurses who were preparing the blue liquid medicine in the large bathtub nearby sent an older nurse to walk over to Zhang Nan, pulling him out while saying,
"You can't help here, so why don't you go out and urge them to build the hydrotherapy cabin and send it over so your father can rest in the nutrient solution as soon as possible."

Zhang Nan came to the door, looked back at the bed that was covered by the blue curtains, took a deep breath, wiped the tears from his face, tidied his hair and clothes, and then opened the curtains at the door and went out.

"How's your dad, Xiaonan?"

"Second sister, is Dad seriously injured?"

"Xiao Nan, tell us the truth, what's your father's situation now?"

"Second sister, please say something!"

Zhang Nan took out his cell phone without saying a word, dialed Zhang Long's number, and walked towards the corner.

A few seconds later, Zhang Long's voice came from Zhang Nan's phone receiver, "Hello, second sister, have you seen Dad?"

Zhang Nan suppressed his panic and anger and asked in a cold voice, "How long will it take?"

Zhang Long had been urged many times, and as soon as he heard Zhang Nan's question, he knew what she was asking.

Zhang Long's slightly helpless voice rang out, "Second sister, don't rush me. This spa cabin requires a keyboard and mouse to be placed inside. We are waterproofing it and it will be shipped over soon!"

"Five minutes!" Zhang Nan stood in the corner and said in a low voice, "If you can't deliver it in five minutes, I will destroy all the laboratories in your underground base. What use are you to me?"

After he finished speaking, Zhang Nan pressed his thumb hard on the screen and hung up the phone.

When everyone saw Zhang Nan standing in the corner motionless and silent after finishing the call, they all realized that the situation in the emergency department was not good.

Chen Shuting stepped forward and put her arm around Zhang Nan's shoulders, asking softly, "Did your dad tell you to come in?"

Zhang Nan seemed to have just come back to his senses. He stared at his stepmother Chen Shuting for a while, then turned to look at his mother Tang Xin who was standing next to him, as well as his third sister, fourth sister, and eighth brother who was being held by his seventh sister.

"I just saw Dad sitting on the bed, having several doctors and nurses help him peel off the dead skin from his burns. Now all he needs is the hydrotherapy cabin." Zhang Nan said evasively.

"Besides, Dad asked us to go back first and visit him outside the intensive care unit tomorrow."

At this moment, Zhang Nan really wanted to be here with his father, to see him enter the intensive care unit smoothly and use better medical equipment.

But when she thought about her father's current appearance, especially his neck with a large piece of flesh missing, reason told her that she had to take her mother and stepmother back!

"Mom, little mom, why don't you go back first? Xiaolong, Xiaohu and I will keep watch tonight, and you can come back tomorrow during the day."

Zhang Nan found a reasonable reason, but her mother was not willing to leave now.

How could Tang Xin feel at ease without seeing Zhang Heping come out!

In addition, the second hydrotherapy cabin was delivered just in time, so Tang Xin and Chen Shuting were even more reluctant to leave. They insisted on waiting until Zhang Heping was sent to the intensive care unit before they would go back!
Zhang Heping, who was peeling off dead skin in the emergency department, naturally sensed the situation outside, but he really couldn't hold on any longer!

No matter how strong his self-healing ability was, under the stimulation of pain, numbness and itching all over his body, and the rapid consumption of nutrients in his body, he really wanted to empty his mind, let himself pass out, and let his subconscious and a bunch of idle skills take over this body.

The nurses cleaned and peeled off his burnt dead skin from head to toe, bit by bit. The feeling was no less than the torture of lingchi.

So, before he decided to lie down in the hydrotherapy cabin, he left a note and asked the nurse to cover the transparent lid of the hydrotherapy cabin with a bed blanket and then push him out.

However, this attempt to cover up the truth can only keep out some outsiders, but it has no effect on Tang Xin and Chen Shuting who are eager to know the truth.

"Don't open it!" A young nurse standing by the hydrotherapy cabin lied, "The liquid medicine inside can't be exposed to strong light, otherwise it will lose its effectiveness."

If she had said this when she came out of the first hydrotherapy cabin covered with the quilt, it might have been useful.

But this is the second spa cabin. The first one was not even covered with a bed, so why should this one be covered?

So, when Tang Xin approached, she lifted a corner of the quilt despite being stopped, but she didn't see anyone.

After she pulled the bed quilt aside and took a closer look, she saw a figure lying at the bottom of the hydrotherapy cabin.

However, because the liquid inside was a few shades darker than the liquid in the first hydrotherapy chamber, outsiders could not clearly see the injuries of the figure at the bottom.

"What kind of water is in this?" Chen Shuting asked after taking a look at the spa cabin. "How can my husband breathe in this water?"

"This is the nutrient solution that Teacher Zhang taught us to prepare. It was originally planned to be used in the hibernation chamber on the spacecraft to help astronauts carry out long-distance space flights!" The doctor answered as he covered the hydrotherapy cabin cover with the bedsheet again.

“This is a manuscript written by Teacher Zhang!” another doctor said, taking out a stack of papers with bloodstains and explaining, “As long as these nutrient solutions are continuously circulated, they can meet the body’s needs for nutrients and oxygen, and there is no longer a need to breathe air through the mouth and nose.”

"How is this possible?" The previously insignificant head of the respiratory department frowned and objected. "How can a person's trachea, bronchi, and lungs possibly accept this liquid? How can one overcome biological instinct?"

Chen Shuting ignored what outsiders said and asked the bodyguard captain who was standing by quietly to take people to the emergency department to check.

A moment later, after receiving a reply from the bodyguard captain that the boss was not found in the emergency department, Chen Shuting was willing to believe that her husband was really lying in the oval hydrotherapy cabin next to her.

Just as the Zhang family was being taken to the intensive care unit by the hydrotherapy pod, several medical staff who came out of the emergency department were stopped by Elder Hua and Elder Zheng and their group. They asked Zhang Heping in a deep voice about his injuries, the details of the treatment he had just received, and the subsequent treatment methods.

However, when they heard that Zhang Heping had severe burns on 99% of his body, but was still able to prescribe treatment methods without saying a word and instruct a group of medical staff to prepare nutrient solution, all the men, women, and children present were shocked beyond words.

Some people wanted to question the authenticity of this story, but when they saw the basin of black dead skin that the nurse was holding and the stack of papers in Hua Lao's hand, no one dared to voice their doubts.

After listening to the medical staff's accounts, Old Zheng, who had been silent for a long time, finally asked, "Old Hua, what are your plans next?"
