Traveling through the Republic of China, I married a dead person

Is there something important that you want to tell me but you want to hide it from Wan Qili?

Su Bai couldn't figure it out.

Doctor Shi knew that Wan Qili was as close to him as a sister and they could talk about anything. Could it be that he was afraid of her identity as a member of the Military Control Commission?

"Hahaha, I'm just teasing you!" Wan Qili laughed on the other end of the phone.

Nonsense, these three words immediately popped up in Su Bai's mind. It's already this hour and he's still in the mood to joke?

Wan Qili only met Dr. Shi once. When she arrived at Renji Hospital, Dr. Shi was already on his way to the operating room.

Wan Qili followed her bedside and said a few words as they walked towards the operating room.

There was one very important sentence that Dr. Shi said to Wan Qili: "Tell Jieru that I miss her. There are some things..."

Wan Qili immediately understood the meaning of this seemingly unfinished sentence, and she had something to say to Su Bai.

At this time, a middle-aged male doctor who was standing by the operating table also understood what Dr. Shi meant and said to Wan Qili, "There is a phone in my office. You can ask Dr. Shi to come over in a wheelchair to answer the phone."

Wan Qili looked at Dr. Shi, and Dr. Shi nodded. The meaning was very simple: this person was trustworthy.

After Dr. Shi was pushed into the operating room, Wan Qili learned about the middle-aged doctor who performed the operation on Dr. Shi from a passing nurse.

His surname is An and he is the director of the intensive care unit.

Dr. An and Dr. Shi were college classmates, and Dr. Shi is one of Vice President Zhang’s most proud disciples.

After graduation, Dr. An and Dr. Shi became colleagues, and their relationship has been very good for more than ten years.

Hearing that the operation would take at least four hours, Wan Qili asked for Dr. An's office phone number and came out to call Su Bai.

"Sister, I still have a lot of things to do. Please keep an eye on the time and call me in four hours!" Wan Qili gave Su Bai the phone number of Dr. An's office.

What could Dr. Shi want from me?

There is only one thing, which is going to Wuhan. Due to her accidental injury, she cannot go to Wuhan for the time being, so she should have other arrangements.

As soon as Su Bai's phone rang, Zi Yan and Xu Tianyi came upstairs and stood behind Su Bai, listening quietly.

Their worry and anxiety were no less than Su Bai's.

After Su Bai put down the phone and told them what was said, Zi Yan immediately suggested to Su Bai that he should not hesitate. If Dr. Shi had any arrangements, we should leave Shanghai tomorrow afternoon and go straight to Wuhan instead of returning to Longxing.

Xu Tianyi did not express any opinion. Su Bai knew that as Zhou Beiwang's brother, he hoped that Su Bai would return to Longxing.

Although Su Bai didn't kick them out of the building this time, he made them shut up.

At this time, Su Bai thought that he could no longer be disturbed by any factors. He had to make a decisive move and the people of Longxing must be rescued.

Su Bai calculated that the operation would take four hours, and there would be an anesthesia recovery process after the operation, which would take another hour. He would call Dr. Shi after five hours.

Five hours later, Su Bai and the other two couldn't wait to call after dinner. A female nurse answered the phone and told Su Bai that the operation was still in progress.

It is common for new problems to arise during the operation, causing it to take longer than expected. An hour later, Su Bai called again and got the same answer: the operation had not been completed yet.

This time, Su Bai deliberately extended the interval and called again at 11 o'clock in the evening, less than half an hour after the operation was completed.

Unfortunately, Dr. An passed away.

"Shit!" Su Bai cursed in English, but Xu Tianyi heard it as "fuck him", which is even more vulgar.

Xu Tianyi and Zi Yan stared at each other, a little uncomfortable with Su Bai's sudden unrestrained behavior.

The operation lasted a full nine hours. After the operation, Dr. An, who was tired after a day's work, packed up and went home. This is normal.

Such a normal thing is actually a reflection of Su Bai's bad luck. Why is he always so unlucky?

The nurse had no right to push the patient to the director's office to answer the phone. Besides, the effect of the anesthetic had not yet completely worn off, so she decisively rejected Su Bai's request.

"Sister, you are just too anxious. Isn't it the same if we call tomorrow morning?" Zi Yan thought that it would not be too late as long as we received Dr. Shi's new arrangement before we set off.

Zi Yan was probably still hoping that Su Bai would change his mind after learning about Dr. Shi's new arrangement.

……

On September 9, Su Bai got up early, washed up, and sent a telegram to Kong Man, saying that he would leave after dinner today, and the next time he would send a telegram would be on the road or at the hotel along the way.

Not receiving Kong Man's confirmation message, Zi Yan thought it was too early. She and Kong Yun must still be sleeping and not getting up yet.

"Let's wait a little longer," Su Bai looked at her watch. It was not yet seven o'clock. She asked Xu Tianyi and Zi Yan to pack up the other things and only leave this radio. They could leave as soon as they packed their suitcases.

Wan Qili came, bringing with her two of the three people who helped Su Bai leave St. Peter's Basilica that day. The beautiful lady did not come today.

Wan Qili was really quick. She had already bought all the necessary gasoline and batteries yesterday afternoon.

"Have you called Dr. Shi?" Wan Qili was also worried about this matter.

Knowing that Su Bai hadn't fought yet, she actually said that Su Bai didn't know what priorities were. Long Xing was just listening to a piece of news, which Su Bai had no control over. It was up to him to listen to the news or not.

What she said was right, but Su Bai felt that if Dr. Shi really made new arrangements for her to go to Wuhan as Zi Yan guessed, it would not be that important.

In Longxing, human lives are at stake.

Su Bai immediately called Dr. An, and the nurse told her that Dr. An would not be at work until eight o'clock and asked her to call back later.

Finally it was eight o'clock. After Dr. An answered the phone, he immediately had Dr. Shi pushed over.

Due to the unusual relationship between Dr. An and Dr. Shi, this was considered extremely special treatment. Dr. Shi could not sit in a wheelchair, so he was pushed in on an operating table.

Su Bai heard Doctor An's voice coming from the phone: "You guys chat, don't get excited, you are very weak, try to be brief."

Then the sound of a door closing was heard.

Dr. Shi was in very poor health, but his speech was basically normal.

Her first words were: "Listen to me, if Vice President Zhang comes to you, no matter what he says, you can't do it right away."

I said this out of the blue.

How could Vice President Zhang find me?

It turned out that this was what Dr. Shi thought. She believed that Su Bai had the best relationship with Vice President Zhang in the Fifth Rescue Team except for her. She thought that Su Bai had communicated with Vice President Zhang before leaving St. Peter's Basilica.

"Oh, it's good that he doesn't know." Doctor Shi seemed relieved after listening to Su Bai's explanation: "I'm just afraid that you will be stupid and believe everything others say."

Am I that stupid?

Su Bai did not refute Dr. Shi, but asked her why she said that.

"I am now certain that the 50 bottles of penicillin..." Doctor Shi paused for a moment: "They were not donated to the battlefield hospitals, but to the Japanese army!"
