You can't discriminate against people just because they're backward.

Buzz——

In the dead of night at twelve o'clock, a blackish insect, resembling a hornet, flew before Lu Yuan's eyes.

This type of insect made a sound like a fly when flying, and its movements were exceptionally agile.

Its tail carried a painless injector that Lu Yuan had spent many days miniaturizing to only five millimeters in diameter.

Here, the five-millimeter diameter referred to the structure of this device, not the injection nozzle itself.

Lu Yuan held his phone and opened the remote control simulation interface. Buzz——

Instantly, the tiny insect flew far away.

With this device, Lu Yuan didn't need to handle many tasks outside the clinic himself.

For instance, secretly sedating someone or injecting something interesting but not exactly publicly acceptable.

Over the next two hours, Lu Yuan produced over two hundred of these tiny insects.

Lu Yuan gave these insects an adorable name—the Needle Bee.

Depending on the injection liquid in the painless injector, the Needle Bees were further divided into several different models.

Including the most common and frequently used Anesthetic Bee, and Lu Yuan's few unintended creations—the Poison Bee, the Killer Bee, the Blood Bee, the Demonic Impregnation Bee, and the Soul-Devouring Fear Bee.

The first three were self-explanatory. The primary function of the Demonic Impregnation Bee was that a single bite could make a person, regardless of gender, pregnant.

A bite from the Soul-Devouring Fear Bee could make one feel bone-chilling cold and experience infinite fear, while the bee itself would absorb this fear to become stronger, creating a vicious cycle of intensifying fear.

At two o'clock in the morning, in the deserted medical school.

Lu Yuan, wearing a white lab coat, stood in a patch of grass, surrounded by a shroud of black mist.

Buzz buzz buzz——

Over two hundred bee-like creatures swarmed around Lu Yuan in flight.

Gazing upon his creation, Lu Yuan nodded in satisfaction.

With these, he no longer feared anyone intruding at night.

Suddenly, Lu Yuan felt a small sense of security at last.

Noticing the time, it was almost four in the morning, so Lu Yuan decided to rest early today.

However, just as he returned to the clinic building, he heard the phone ringing in Lin Youyou's duty room.

Who would call at this hour?

As Lu Yuan approached, Lin Youyou had already answered the phone.

"Hello? Go ahead!"

"Please tell me the address!"

"Okay, please wait! The ambulance will arrive as soon as possible!"

Click!

Lin Youyou hung up and immediately dialed Xiao Chen's number.

"Ambulance call! Hurry!"

"9 Laodongjing, Changlelu, West City District!"

"Seems like a sudden heart problem!"

Upon hearing it was the West City District, Lu Yuan frowned.

In Lu Yuan's eyes, people from the West City District were a bit... abnormal.

Perhaps because the West City District was the farthest from the East Suburbs where Lu Yuan was located, people there had limited medical knowledge.

For instance, a simple stomachache could be permanently resolved by replacing a section of the intestine, and people in the East Suburbs would readily agree.

But not those in the West City District.

They preferred taking medicine, avoiding injections if possible, and refusing surgery if they could help it.

Moreover, they liked living together in large groups, claiming strength in numbers and having someone to rely on.

Every night, they would even arrange someone specifically to keep watch.

In Lu Yuan's view, this was completely irrational.

Could safety really be guarded by keeping watch?

Look at the East Suburbs, so quiet and peaceful, with several acres of land per person and everyone having a spacious home.

No one kept watch, yet it was perfectly safe!

However, at this moment, human life took precedence over all else, and he couldn't discriminate against them just because they were backward.

He quickly told Lin Youyou, "Tell Xiao Chen I'll be waiting at the gate!"

With that, he turned and left.

Actually, Lu Yuan didn't need to accompany the ambulance to pick up the patient, but since this was the clinic's first ambulance call, he decided to go along and observe.

Xiao Chen's ambulance garage was in a small building next to the clinic building, where he was usually alone.

Upon receiving Lin Youyou's call, the previously dark building immediately lit up.

Less than two minutes later, the armored business vehicle that Lu Yuan had converted into an ambulance drove out.

Picking up Lu Yuan at the gate, the East Suburbs Medical School's ambulance roared through the deserted streets in the early morning hours, heading straight for the West City District.

Following the navigation, fifteen minutes later, the ambulance stopped at the entrance of Laodongjing.

The alley was too narrow for the ambulance to enter.

At this moment, Xiao Chen glanced at Lu Yuan, then controlled two medical service robots to disembark and rush towards 9 Laodongjing.

After Xiao Chen left, Lu Yuan closed his eyes and muttered to himself, "Just pneumothorax, a minor issue."

Shortly after, the two robots carried a man in his thirties on a stretcher onto the ambulance.

The man appeared to be having difficulty breathing, with slight convulsions throughout his body, and his hand constantly pressed against his chest.

Following onto the ambulance were a slightly younger woman and an elderly woman.

Both seemed extremely anxious.

Lu Yuan went over, briefly examined the man, and reassured the two, "It's alright, not a big problem, don't worry!"

"Xiao Chen, drive steady, no need to rush."

At this point, Xiao Chen, now seated in the driver's seat, said somewhat awkwardly to Lu Yuan, "Doctor Lu..."

"Hmm?"

"They... they want to go to Tianyu Hospital in Xifu City."

Lu Yuan was momentarily stunned, turning to look at the patient's two family members.

The elderly woman, glancing at the white lab coat Lu Yuan wore, said, "Doctor, we... we want to go to a bigger hospital..."

The younger woman wept, "Doctor, I'm sorry! This is my husband, it's a matter of life and death! We can't take any chances, please, please take us there!"

"At this hour, we can't find any other transportation!"

"Doctor, don't worry! We'll pay the fare! Double the fare!"

"Next time I'm sick, I'll definitely come to your clinic! Definitely!"

"Doctor, please help us this time!"

Lu Yuan sighed and said helplessly, "No need to be so polite, please take a seat!"

"Xiao Chen, head to Xifu City!"

"Okay!"

After that, before dawn, Xiao Chen drove away from Yun City and onto the highway.

About twenty minutes later, the man lying on the ambulance stretcher seemed to be feeling worse, his entire body violently convulsing, with more difficulty inhaling than exhaling!

It looked like he had reached an extremely difficult point.

Lu Yuan glanced at the patient's two family members.

The elderly woman was comforting the man, Hu, on the stretcher, "Hu, hang in there for a little longer! Just a bit longer and we'll be at the hospital!"

"Hang in there for a while longer!"

The woman also chimed in, "Husband, hang in there!"

"We're almost there, we'll be there soon, and everything will be fine!"

"Husband, you can make it!"

"Husband, you can't leave me and Mom!"

Hu's convulsions worsened, and he began to cough violently, his eyes rolling back.

The woman attempted to perform CPR, but as soon as her hands pressed down, cough——

She almost crushed Hu with that one press.

Ultimately, the elderly woman looked at Lu Yuan and said, "Doctor, do you have any way to help? I beg you, I'll kneel before you, doctor!"

However, the younger woman pulled her back and gestured repeatedly with her eyes.

Lu Yuan also supported the elderly woman, turning to the young woman and asking, "Are you legally married?"

The woman nodded, tears in her eyes, "We got our certificate at the Yun City Public Notary Office."

Lu Yuan looked at the elderly woman, "Madam, the treatment carries risks, and I must have the unanimous consent of the family before proceeding."

After saying that, Lu Yuan turned and looked towards the young woman.

However, the woman didn't even look at him.
