"Exactly what 'Congming'..."
Yan Zhi knocked on her head.
Trying hard to recall that name, but the surname seemed stuck.
"He Congming, right?"
Suddenly.
A voice echoed in front of Yan Zhi.
After listening clearly, Yan Zhi's eyes lit up.
She nodded happily, "Yes, yes, it's He Congming!"
"His roommate called, saying he accidentally took rat poison."
"I also jotted down his roommate's phone number, it's on that note."
Su Bingbing and Mu Yao came back after exchanging WeChat.
They saw Chen Mu, looking distraught, pick up the medical kit, "Reporter Su, let's go, to He Congming's dormitory."
Su Bingbing paused in her tracks.
The expression on her face also became subtle, "Dr. Chen, are you planning to tell me He Congming swallowed a light bulb again?"
Chen Mu shook his head and walked downstairs.
Su Bingbing quickly followed, still with an incredulous expression, "Did he really swallow a light bulb?"
"Is he lacking some kind of vitamin? Didn't Dr. Chen say before that if your body lacks certain vitamins, it makes you crave certain things?"
"Dr. Chen, do you think He Congming might be lacking light bulbs?"
One of Chen Mu's feet was already on Driver He's ambulance.
Upon hearing Su Bingbing's words, he almost stumbled again.
Chen Mu turned his head, giving Su Bingbing a thumbs up, "Reporter Su, you really understand light bulbs, and what people might be lacking..."
After explaining the destination clearly to Driver He.
Chen Mu couldn't wait to take out his phone and dialed He Congming's roommate's number from the note.
The call had just connected.
Chen Mu heard a voice from the other side: "Dr. Chen, is that Dr. Chen? Are you the one from the campus clinic?"
Chen Mu sighed: "It's me."
"I wasn't at the clinic just now. The student helping to relay the message only said that He Congming accidentally took rat poison."
"Why is there rat poison in the dormitory, and how could it be taken by mistake?"
Upon hearing Chen Mu's words.
The student on the other end choked a bit, "I bought the rat poison, but Dr. Chen, buying rat poison was really a last resort."
"Lately, there's been rats appearing on that path through the school's little forest."
"If it were the northern kind, the ones as big as a palm, I wouldn't be afraid as a big man."
"But you've never seen that rat, oh my goodness, it's as big as half my arm, about the size of a stray cat."
"Sometimes when I come back from evening classes, seeing that thing running around on the ground is terrifying."
Chen Mu sighed: "So, you bought rat poison?"
This student's sharing enthusiasm was no less than Shi Dan's from earlier.
In fact,
even more so.
The boy on the other end nodded while sobbing.
He nodded.
Then realized Dr. Chen probably couldn't see him nodding.
He quickly spoke up: "But Dr. Chen, you'll see when you come, the rat poison I bought is really the very common type you see in the market, red pellets, with 'rat poison' written on the package."
Chen Mu found it hard to understand: "So, you're saying, He Congming knew it was rat poison and still ate it?"
"Trying to see if he was invulnerable?"
If it were another patient involved.
Chen Mu wouldn't even think to ask such an unreliable question.
But the patient was He Congming.
Inexplicably.
Chen Mu biasedly believed this was something He Congming would do.
Upon hearing Chen Mu's words.
The boy on the other end grew even more anxious, "No, no..."
"Dr. Chen, we actually took He Congming to check his brain this morning; there was nothing wrong."
"He also took a test at the psychologist, they said he's just a bit stubborn, single-minded, nothing that would classify as a mental disorder."
Chen Mu remained skeptical, "Then why did he eat rat poison?"
The boy was exasperated: "This situation is somewhat my fault too."
"It was my first time buying rat poison online; I didn't expect the shop owner to send me a ham sausage version of rat poison."
"Dr. Chen, do you know, that rat poison looks no different from the chicken sausages we usually eat."
Chen Mu: "..."
He had no idea.
In his unawareness, the outside world had even made rat poison so advanced?
"I also didn't look carefully when I unpacked the delivery, and just poured the stuff on the table before going out."
"Later, I sent him a WeChat message, asking him to help take the rat poison to the rats downstairs when he goes out."
"But then, then..."
The boy on the other end started to choke up again.
"Not long after, He Congming messaged me, saying he handled it for me."
"And he even said I was quite thoughtful today, actually leaving him a sausage for the favor."
"I was in shock; I never did such a considerate thing, where did the sausage come from?"
"Then suddenly, my phone beeped; the online store owner messaged me, saying he gave me a ham sausage version of rat poison and asked for a five-star review!"
"This is a matter of life and death!"
"And he still wants a five-star review!"
On the other end of the phone, the boy broke into devastated sobbing.
-
"Wow! Roommate with Da Congming + online shop owner, unstoppable!"
"I'm completely dumbfounded now, I intended to laugh at Da Congming, but thinking carefully..."
"Thinking carefully, with a sausage on the roommate's table, who could resist the temptation?"
"The person who just used a roommate's sausage in their instant noodles is already dumbfounded; I hope it wasn't a rat poison version too?"
"An intelligent person is already on their way to the campus clinic; if I really collapse there, surely the campus doctor wouldn't ignore me?"
"Campus clinic doctor at your school: Meeting you is my blessing!"
"..."
-
"Don't cry first, is He Congming still in the dorm now, or where is he?"
"Can you check on his situation?"
The boy stopped sobbing for a moment.
Then.
Chen Mu heard a rustling sound.
It wasn't long.
Before he heard a weak voice from the phone, "Dr. Chen... am I really going to die..."
Hearing this voice.
Chen Mu also sighed in relief.
The person is still conscious.
Which means there's still hope.
Once again, the voice of He Congming's roommate came through.
"Dr. Chen, He Congming can still move for now, just occasionally foams at the mouth."
"I just came back to see that he could still move, so I helped him downstairs directly."
"Dr. Chen, I think I see your ambulance!"
Listening to the voice in the phone.
Chen Mu looked intently.
He saw a boy below the dormitory building, excitedly waving his hand vigorously towards the ambulance.
"Dr. Chen, I'm waving! Can you see us?"
Chen Mu responded: "We can see you."
His eyes moved past the waving boy.
Beside him.
There was another boy.
His upper body almost plunged into a trash can.
His whole body was continuously "struggling" against the trash can.
Chen Mu's lips twitched.
