"How much did they eat?"

"Dr. Chen, wait for me to take a look!"

Over the phone, there was a sound of rustling again.

The green light turned on.

Driver He couldn't wait to step on the gas.

"Dr. Chen, I just checked."

"We don't have any knives to cut ginseng in our dorm, so they all just bit directly into the ginseng."

Chen Mu: "Huh?"

—

"Dr. Chen: I've been practicing for many years, it's the first time I've heard of people eating ginseng by biting into it."

"For a moment, I couldn't even tell if what they picked up was ginseng or a big white radish..."

"But really, without a knife, how did they divide it into four shares?"

"Ginseng: I've been elegant for so many years, I didn't expect to meet four wild ladies."

"I'm a botany student, banging the table and roaring, in an environment like Hai City University, there's no way ginseng could grow!"

"Buddy in botany, I would definitely support you in the past, but now..."

"Hai City University is so uncanny, even mushrooms can grow on the beds, so what's the problem with ginseng growing on campus?"

"..."

—

"Without tools to divide the ginseng, how did the four of you share it?"

Chen Mu leaned against the car window, looking utterly despondent.

On the other end of the line, He Xingchen confidently said, "We just broke it apart with our hands!"

Chen Mu: "Impressive!"

Chen Mu sighed.

After organizing his thoughts.

"He Xingchen, I might not have been clear earlier."

"If a person's body has dampness, there is indeed a possibility of falling into a sleep state, but this sleep is such that you can be woken up."

"Also."

"The probability that three people in one dormitory all have dampness is not high."

"It's very likely now that the ginseng you got isn't ginseng, but another plant that looks very similar to ginseng."

He Xingchen muttered on the phone, "No way..."

"Dr. Chen, we're all university students; we should be able to recognize ginseng."

Chen Mu sneered, "Yes, all university students."

"You can't even figure out whether the ginseng obtained on campus belongs to the school or to yourselves."

He Xingchen was silent for a moment on the other side.

Then when she spoke again, her tone was much more formal: "Dr. Chen, I will go take a photo of the ginseng for you right now and send it to your phone shortly!"

After saying this.

He Xingchen hastily hung up the phone.

As if...

If she continued to talk with Chen Mu, Chen Mu would grab her by the neck and demand she spit the ginseng out.

Chen Mu hadn't even had a chance to close his eyes and rest.

From behind him, a small head peeked over, "Dr. Chen, are there many plants that look like ginseng? Can you explain to the audience in our live stream?"

Chen Mu nodded: "There are five plants that resemble ginseng."

"They are Glutinous Rice Vine, bamboo ginseng, Fangfeng, Fog Water Kudzu, and Polygonum multiflorum."

Su Bingbing was surprised: "There are really that many?"

Chen Mu nodded and continued: "Among these ginseng-like plants, the Glutinous Rice Vine, Fangfeng, and Fog Water Kudzu are non-toxic."

"If you encounter them in daily life, it's okay to take a bite."

"Bamboo ginseng has certain toxicity but can be used medicinally."

Su Bingbing nodded thoughtfully.

The next second.

She looked at Chen Mu with sparkling eyes, "Since these four aren't very harmful, then the Polygonum multiflorum you haven't talked about must be the one that's highly toxic?"

Chen Mu nodded and then shook his head, saying: "Yes and no..."

Su Bingbing was puzzled, "What do you mean?"

Chen Mu put on a reminiscent expression, "Actually, many people don't know that Polygonum multiflorum is divided into two types."

"One is the native Polygonum multiflorum in our country."

"Our native Polygonum multiflorum can be used medicinally and is even known as 'wild ginseng'."

"But now with foreign species invading too much, the Polygonum multiflorum we might encounter in daily life is mostly foreign species, American Pokeweed."

"If you mistakenly eat American Pokeweed, it can cause a certain degree of poisoning."

"If the symptoms are mild, there might be vomiting and dry heaves."

"If slightly more severe, it might lead to diarrhea, convulsions, and the most severe..."

Chen Mu's expression became increasingly serious, "There is a certain chance that mistaken ingestion of American Pokeweed can lead to heart paralysis and death."

"So usually, if you don't have the ability to distinguish whether it's ginseng, it's not recommended to eat ginseng picked up by the roadside."

"Because there's a high chance that what you picked up is not ginseng but American Pokeweed."

"Ginseng requires very demanding growing conditions, but American Pokeweed grows wildly..."

Chen Mu was just starting to say this.

Suddenly!

He looked as if struck by lightning, muttering, "No way, am I that unlucky?"

—

"What 'no way'? What 'that unlucky'? What is Dr. Chen talking about?"

"Dr. Chen probably meant, no way, were they unfortunate enough to eat the highly toxic American Pokeweed, right?"

"It's really possible... American Pokeweed loves the kind of climate in Hai City..."

"Looks like it's over, Dr. Chen hasn't even reached the school yet and the crispy students are already done for!"

"If something did happen, would the responsibility fall on the school or the students themselves? Though eating Polygonum multiflorum was the students' subjective act, since it's on campus, the school should bear some responsibility too, right..."

"At a time like this, you're still discussing responsibility? Shouldn't you be calling 120?"
