The Ultimate Prodigal Son - Chapter 218

[Chapter 218 I’m afraid it’s a plague]

The few of them did not continue to dwell on this matter, but studied the map until it was dark.

“Let’s put this matter aside for now. Finding Doctor Ning first is the most important thing.”

Lin Tian put the map away and said to everyone.

Now three days have passed, and they have twelve days left. If they don’t hurry up, Lei Ting’s life will be in danger!

“That’s right! But those refugees must be dealt with first. As for the governor of Ningjiang City, I’m afraid we can’t do anything for a while.”

Xu Wenxuan nodded. They don’t have an official position now. If they want to investigate the governor, they will commit a capital crime!

So this matter is not urgent. Now it is time to deal with the refugees and find Doctor Ning first, and rescue Lei Ting first.

“You’re right, so tomorrow Song Zijie and I will go to help Miss Su distribute medicine, and by the way, we will inquire about the whereabouts of Dr. Ning, and also learn about the situation of these refugees.”

“You take Lin Kang and Lei Dian to look around the city to see if we can find any clues. Let’s act separately.”

Lin Tian nodded and ordered.

Now time is urgent, they can’t waste time like today, and they must make the most of all manpower.

“Okay, let’s do it!”

Xu Wenxuan didn’t have any objections. Everyone nodded together, went out to eat something, and went back to rest.

The next morning, Lin Tian took Song Zijie out of the city gate together. Today, they met the officer who let them in when they entered the city that day.

“Master Lin is really early, are you going to see the refugees today too?”

The officer asked, glancing outside.

In fact, he had to stop those people, but it was also for the good of the refugees.

If they were let in by mistake, besides the servants being punished, none of the refugees would be able to escape.

The one who sneaked in before was caught by the people in the city and was almost beaten to death!

The scene was extremely tragic, so even if he let them starve outside, he was unwilling to let those people in to die.

“Yeah, we have to maintain order.”

Lin Tian also said jokingly, he found this officer a little interesting.

“Thank you for your hard work, Master Lin.”

The officer looked out the door again, and happened to see two refugees looking at him. His expression changed immediately, and he glared at them fiercely.

Lin Tian looked at his expression change, didn’t say much, just nodded slightly, and walked out with Song Zijie.

The refugees saw that it was only Miss Su, so they wanted to make trouble while Lin Tian was away, but unfortunately Lin Tian came soon.

“As long as you abide by the order, all these medicines will not be missing!”

“If you continue to mess around and hurt the heart of this female Bodhisattva, I’m afraid no one will come to deliver medicine to you!”

Lin Tian said with a bad face.

Although he didn’t know what Miss Su was thinking, people’s hearts were always fragile.

If she was hurt by the attitude of these people, maybe Miss Su might really give up coming here to deliver medicine.

Then… these refugees will be really miserable!

“Female Bodhisattva, please be kind and don’t not come! Ahem!”

said a young man. Although he looked young, he was pale and thin, and looked sick.

“Yes, yes, we all rely on you!”

“We did something wrong before, and I hope you will forgive us!”

The refugees began to talk in a flurry, and they were all worried that Miss Su would ignore them in the future.

These people have lost their hometowns and are displaced. If it weren’t for Miss Su’s relief, I’m afraid they would have died long ago!

“It’s okay, just line up quickly.”

Miss Su didn’t expect that Lin Tian’s words would cause such a big reaction. She said a little uncomfortably, lowering her head to boil the medicine faster.

Song Zijie stood beside her, helping her from time to time, and when the medicine was boiled, he put it aside to cool.

The order of the day was also very good, but Lin Tian found that more and more refugees were coughing, and their eyes were dull and their faces were sallow.

“Wait!”

Lin Tian seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly grabbed a refugee who was coughing violently.

“You…what are you going to do?”

The refugee also witnessed the scene of Lin Tian’s fight yesterday. At this time, he was a little scared when he was grabbed by Lin Tian so suddenly.

He looked at Lin Tian with horror, and Lin Tian pinched his cheeks with one hand.

“Open your mouth, ah——”

Lin Tian said with a serious face.

The man didn’t know what Lin Tian was going to do, so he did it obediently.

Lin Tian took the opportunity to look at his throat, which had been extremely red and swollen, and his tonsils were inflamed!

“You go first, the rest of you come here!”

Lin Tian looked grim, and asked the man to go first, and pointed at the other refugees who were coughing.

Those people were in a state of anxiety, and walking in front of Lin Tian was tantamount to asking them to open their mouths.

These people were the same as the previous one, with severe tonsillitis and coughing!

From what Lin Tian had learned, this was a disease caused by streptococcal infection, which was very rapid and had another name here.

Plague!

This tonsillitis was very contagious, and if it was not controlled early, it would definitely be out of control!

Moreover, it was a hot summer, and there was a flood. These refugees were sleeping outside the city gate, and the environment was extremely unsanitary.

So these bacteria spread faster!

“What’s going on?”

At this time, all the soups and medicines had been delivered. Seeing that Lin Tian’s face was extremely ugly, Song Zijie and Miss Su came forward to ask.

“You guys follow me first!”

Lin Tian said with a serious face.

After pulling both of them to a corner, he answered their confusion in a serious voice.

“I’m afraid it’s the plague!”

He should have thought of it long ago. The hot summer is prone to breeding bacteria, and the number of refugees dying every day is extremely large.

Without timely burial, the bodies will stink and rot, and the breeding bacteria will be infected by humans.

“What!?”

“Plague!”

“Are you serious!?”

After hearing Lin Tian’s words, not only Song Zijie, but also Miss Su’s usually calm face changed drastically.

“It should be correct. Now the plague has not spread. We must find a way to stop it!”

Lin Tian was extremely sure.

“Then hurry to the county government! I’ll go back to prepare the medicine first!”

Miss Su was also calm. She said in a hurry, and she didn’t even have time to pack her things.
