Chapter 288 A Favor From Wan Guliu
Lu Yu sat in an airtight secret room in a police station. There was strong soundproofing here, and the outside world could not hear a word that Lu Yu said.
At the same time, the telephone lines and networks here were strictly monitored.
It was precisely in such a room that there was a line to contact the military.
Lu Yu sat in front of the table and waited for a moment. Then, Wan Guliu’s hearty laughter came from the other end of the phone.
“Lu Yu, I didn’t expect you to contact me so soon. Did you run into an emergency?”
“It’s about my family. She’s sick and is in the hospital…”
Before Lu Yu could finish, Wan Guliu continued, “It’s your aunt, right? Her illness is special, and I’ve already sent someone to solve her medical expenses.”
“It’s not about the money. I wouldn’t have contacted you if it were as simple as money. The money I earn is enough to pay for her medical expenses.”
“Oh? Then why did you contact me?”
“There’s a doctor in the military who can help with my aunt’s surgery and cure her illness.”
Wan Guliu was a little surprised. “Really? A doctor in the military can do it? Where did you hear about it?”
“A doctor in Ixdale Central Hospital told me,” Lu Yu answered.
“Hmm, they are professional doctors. Since it’s their judgment, I have nothing to say. What’s the doctor’s name you want to contact?”
Wan Gulu straightforwardly replied without any hesitation.
Lu Yu quickly replied, “The doctor is the renowned Snake Staff Poison Doctor in the military, and his name is Xu Yuan. You should be able to contact him, right?”
“What are you talking about? Of course, I can! Just you wait; I’ll contact him right now and tell him to rush over as soon as possible. He won’t waste a single second!”
On the other end of the phone, Lu Yu heaved a sigh of relief. Lu Yu’s heart relaxed after hearing Wan Guliu’s words.
“I’m really grateful. I’ll wait here for him to come over.”
“Is there anything else you want?”
“No.”
Wan Guliu went silent for a moment and said helplessly, “This is just a small matter, and you shouldn’t have used my favor.”
“But since you did, you can’t go back on your word.”
Wan Guliu quickly added, afraid that Lu Yu would regret his decision.
Lu Yu was speechless. Then, he realized what a waste it was to use Wan Guliu’s favor just to call a doctor over…
However, since this was for his aunt’s illness, Lu Yu didn’t feel much of a loss.
“I won’t go back on my words. After all, it’s for my aunt. I’ll hang up now since there’s nothing else.”
“Okay, I’ll go and give him the order now.”
After hanging up the phone, Lu Yu walked out of the room.
After pa.s.sing through the corridor, Lu Yu came to the front lobby. The police chief walked over and came to see Lu Yu.
“How was the chat?”
“It went smoothly,” Lu Yu said casually.
“I won’t ask too much about the contents of your chat. After all, it’s a call to Wan Guliu himself. If anything happens in the future, come to our place anytime, as we’re all on the same side.”
The chief looked at the badge on Lu Yu’s chest and knew Lu Yu’s status would not be low in the future, so it would be helpful for him to be friendly now.
Lu Yu nodded slightly. “I’ll head back first.”
With that, Lu Yu pushed open the gla.s.s door and walked out of the police station with the chief’s accompaniment.
Lu Yu immediately quickened his pace and rushed back to Ixdale Central Hospital.
Lu Yu ran his fastest to go upstairs and return to his aunt’s ward.
In the ward, Liu Yi was still lying on the bed, in a coma with her pale face.
The three doctors sat beside her and carefully observed her vitals, afraid that something might happen suddenly.
After Lu Yu hurriedly walked in, he looked at them and said, “Prepare the operating room. I’ve contacted the poison doctor, and he’ll be here soon!”
When he said this, the three doctors immediately stood up.
“Is what you said true? Did you really contact the poison doctor?”
“Snake Staff Poison Doctor has a very high position in the military, and not anyone can call him over. Are you sure?”
“Moving the patient rashly to another place will not be good for her.”
Lu Yu looked at the three of them and nodded with certainty. “Of course, I’m sure. How could I possibly take risks with my aunt’s life? He will be here soon!”
Doctor Zhao was still puzzled, but he still picked up his phone and sent a message to the nurses, asking them to prepare an operating theater.
“Lu Yu, how did you get in touch with them? Are you sure you got the right person?”
Doctor Zhao walked to Lu Yu’s side and asked again.
Lu Yu was getting a little impatient. “I got in touch with Wan Guliu, and someone in his position should be able to command a doctor, not?”
When he said this, the three doctors were surprised. “You got in touch with the Wan Guliu? For real?”
Doctor Zhao didn’t believe it, and the two others behind him were also in disbelief.
“That’s impossible. Do you even know the kind of person Wan Guliu is? There’s no way you actually contacted him.”
“d.a.m.n, if you can really get in contact with Wan Guliu, this matter is settled!”
The three looked at Lu Yu, unwilling to believe Lu Yu’s words.
Lu Yu looked at the three people’s untrusting eyes and sighed helplessly.
“Come, come, look at this!”
Lu Yu pointed at the badge on his chest. “Do you recognize this?”
Doctor Zhao’s eyes widened. “This… is a third-cla.s.s merit badge. You obtained a third-cla.s.s merit badge?”
The two doctors beside him bent forward and stared at the badge earnestly.
“s.h.i.t, it’s the real deal. You actually got a third-cla.s.s merit badge!” The professional doctor couldn’t help but swear out loud.
“I heard that a third-cla.s.s merit badge is an award given to those that save a city. What did you do?”
The three looked at Lu Yu curiously.
Of course, Lu Yu couldn’t tell them the truth as it was confidential.
“This is not something you should ask. Don’t just stay here, hurry up!”
The two doctors behind Doctor Zhao started to prepare for the surgery, but Doctor Zhao still stood where he was and looked at Lu Yu curiously.
“You did get a third-cla.s.s merit award, but what does this have to do with Wan Guliu? Did he come to award you this badge personally?”
Lu Yu nodded. “That’s right. This badge isn’t supposed to be awarded by Wan Guliu, but it’s an exception this time. Not only did he come personally to award it to me, but he also invited me to join the military.”
Doctor Zhao was even more curious. “Does Wan Guliu value you so much? After all, won’t it mean that you are guaranteed to join the military after getting this badge?”
“Looks like you don’t believe me.”
“I didn’t mean that. Of course, I believe you…”
Lu Yu ignored him. Instead, he took out his phone and played a video. This video was the ceremony of Wan Guliu personally giving Lu Yu his badge.
When Doctor Zhao saw the video, his eyes and mouth slowly widened.
