Boundless benevolence

camp, inpatient.

"Come on, Tia, open your mouth~~" Li Qian held a bowl in one hand, and handed a spoonful of rice paste to the little girl's mouth.The little girl opened her mouth to swallow obediently, but vomited out again after a while.

"It's okay, it's okay." Li Qian quickly smiled when she saw the little girl's guilty and frightened expression.She took the handkerchief beside the bed and carefully helped the little girl wipe off the vomit on her body.

Standing at the door of the ward, Chu Xiao watched Li Qian's every move with appreciation in his tender eyes.He didn't walk over until Li Qian finished feeding the whole bowl of rice cereal.

"Tia, how are you feeling today?" Chu Xiao sat by the little girl's hospital bed, took the little girl's hand, and greeted her with a smile. The little girl obviously liked Chu Xiao very much and showed a smile.Chu Xiao talked to the little girl for a while, coaxed the little girl to fall asleep, then stood up and left the ward with Li Qian.

"Tia can finally eat something. Before, she basically vomited as much as she ate, and her stomach has been empty for too long." Chu Xiao and Li Qian chatted as they walked, "Speaking of which, I think you have come to see her often these two days, you He seems to like her a lot."

"Seeing her is like seeing me as a child..."

"what?"

Li Qian was startled, only then did she realize that she had accidentally said what was in her heart just now.She looked at Chu Xiao, only to see that the latter looked at her with wide eyes, obviously hearing that sentence.Li Qian hesitated, but seeing Chu Xiao's curious baby-like eyes, she couldn't bear to refuse after all, so she asked, "How many brothers and sisters do you have in your family?"

"Four, I have one brother and two sisters."

"Little son." Li Qian smiled and began to tell her own story, "I also have a younger brother, who is my parents' favorite. My hometown is in a small village in Sichuan, and my parents have wanted him since they got married. Unfortunately, the first child gave birth to a daughter. In our place, if you have a daughter in the first child, you can have another one, but if you have more than one, you can’t. But my parents gave birth to a daughter in the second child, and they would rather give birth There will be another fine. But unfortunately, I am a girl again... Do you know what my nickname is? Zhaodi means to recruit a younger brother."

Speaking of this, Li Qian laughed at herself mockingly, and then continued: "However, my parents didn't give up, so within a year of my birth, my mother became pregnant again, and this time she finally gave birth to a boy. My parents were so happy that they named my younger brother Jiabao. Since I was a child, I found that my parents love my younger brother very much. If there is any delicious food at home, my younger brother must eat it first. If there is something fun, it must be my younger brother. Playing first... and then going to school, my parents said they were poor and they didn't plan to let me go to school after graduating from junior high school..."

"And then?" Chu Xiao asked.

"Then I quit. I was admitted to a high school in the city, and I said I would continue my studies. My dad said he had no money, and would beat me if he said too much. Later, my teacher knew about my family's situation and helped me I paid my tuition for the first semester and then contacted my high school to help me apply for a scholarship so I could finish high school."

"During the college entrance examination, I was admitted to medical school. During the holiday after the college entrance examination, I went to the city to work, earned enough travel expenses, and then reported to the university by myself. I applied for a student loan with the school, and then went out every holiday. Working part-time, so I just finished college..." In the end, Li Qian's eyes were filled with tears, thinking that Chu Xiao was still at the side, she smiled self-deprecatingly, and wiped away the tears, "Really, I and What are you talking about?"

Li Qian didn't notice that she had unconsciously switched to Chinese from the beginning of speaking her nickname.Chu Xiao's Chinese level can't keep up with her narration at this speed, but he also understood the general idea, so he patted Li Qian on the back and comforted him in Chinese: "It's okay, your parents will definitely be right now. You are very proud."

Li Qian couldn't help laughing: "Your Chinese really needs to be practiced."

"Hey! Don't laugh at my spoken language!"

After a few jokes, Li Qian's mood had returned to normal, and then she remembered a question she hadn't figured out: "By the way, how did you convince Tia's parents to let her stay in the hospital? "

"Oh, it's nothing, I just explained it to them." Chu Xiao said lightly.

"But after I've been talking to them for so long, that father still doesn't agree?" Li Qian was puzzled. At this moment, she noticed Chu Xiao's unnatural expression, and instantly had a bad feeling, "Hey, aren't you Did you say something you shouldn't have said?"

"No...of course not..."

"No! You must be hiding something from me!"

"Oh well, I'm afraid of you, let me tell you!" Chu Xiao finally surrendered, "Actually, it's nothing. Didn't you say that father cared about his son the other day and didn't care about Tia's life... So, I hinted He, if Tia's body is not taken care of, she may get tuberculosis and other diseases, and these diseases are contagious..."

"What?! You lied to them!" Li Qian was startled and cried out.

"Hush!" Chu Xiao hurriedly covered Li Qian's mouth, looking around nervously, "Hush your voice!"

Li Qian struggled a bit before tearing off Chu Xiao's hand that was holding her down. She looked around, turned around, and asked in a low but serious voice, "How can you deceive the patient's parents?! Do you know that?" Johnson, how hard did it take them to convince these residents to accept our help and treatment? If they find out that we have lied to them, the consequences will be very serious!"

"Hey, what did I lie to them? In fact, I'm telling the truth, okay?" Chu Xiao also retorted in a low voice, "Think about it, if Tia continues like this, her weak body may be infected with tuberculosis. Bacteria or even more terrifying viruses, it is really possible to infect her brother at that time. The situation I am talking about is completely possible!"

"You!" Li Qian wanted to refute, but found that she didn't know what to say. Indeed, Chu Xiao only said "possibly", not "definitely"...

"You...you are sophistry!" She gave Chu Xiao a hard look, but her expression was not as impatient as before.

"I call it the art of language." Seeing that Li Qian's attitude had eased, Chu Xiao immediately hit the snake with the stick. He smiled and put Li Qian's shoulders on his shoulders, and he was persuasive as he walked, "Think about it, at that time In that case, no matter what we say, Tia's father would not agree to stay in the hospital, but now he hinted at him, and he immediately agreed. In this way, Tia can receive proper treatment and save her life. Why do parents care about what we told them? Taking a step back, even if they want to pursue it, we didn’t lie, right? It’s their own understanding, so it can’t be blamed on us, can it?”

Li Qian shook off Chu Xiao's hand: "Then you can't make such a claim, Johnson knows that he will definitely not agree."

Chu Xiao spread his hands recklessly: "If you don't do it now, you'll do it anyway. Could it be that you're going to report me?"

"You..." Li Qian was angry.

"Don't be so nervous, think about Tia." Chu Xiao pointed forward.

Li Qian subconsciously looked in the direction of Chu Xiao's finger—through the window, she could just see Tia's hospital bed. The little girl on the bed was sleeping soundly. It must have been a good dream. The corner of the little girl's mouth With a shallow smile, after two days of recuperation, his originally emaciated body had already shown some signs of getting better.Looking at the sleeping face of the little girl An Ran, Li Qian's previous dissatisfaction dissipated a lot in an instant.

After a while, she sighed: "I hope, what you did is right..."

"Don't worry, you'll be fine." Chu Xiao also softened his voice and said with certainty with a smile.

On the other side, Han Yujun and Li Shixi walked into Du Rusong's office with the test sheet.

"Johnson, we found something wrong." Han Yujun handed the test sheet to Du Rusong, "Didn't we treat a few children with high fever before? At first we thought they were infected with pneumonia, but after testing we found that they were Got malaria."

"Malaria?" Du Rusong took the test sheet and asked Han Yujun while looking at it, "I remember that the symptoms of malaria don't include chills and fever?"

"Generally speaking, this is the case, but several of them are multiple infections of several kinds of malaria parasites, so the symptoms are not as typical as those of vivax malaria. If it were not for the test results, we would not be sure." Li Shixi explained.

Han Yujun looked worried, and then Li Shixi said: "What's worse, we found that the parents of these children also had symptoms of malaria. It is said that after suffering from malaria once, they can produce immune antibodies, so the local adults It shouldn't be, but they actually got this disease, I suspect it's because they just moved from another place and didn't get used to the situation here. Ron asked them, they said they had been to a place some time ago A tribe called the Diwa, and that tribe has just migrated from the north. I fear that the malaria situation will be worse there."

"If this is really the case, it won't be too good." Du Rusong was also a little worried.

"That's why we want to discuss with you and go to that tribe to see." Li Shixi said to Du Rusong, and Han Yujun nodded in agreement.

Du Rusong thought about it for a while, then nodded: "Yes, that's fine. It's not too late, I'll go get ready first, and we'll set off in a while."

Han Yujun and Li Shixi followed Du Rusong out of the office. Du Rusong went to the rear to prepare, and the two of them planned to go back to the ward to see the patients. At this moment, there was a rush of shouts from a distance: "Help! Help!"

As soon as the two heard it, they ran out immediately.

"What happened?" Han Yujun was the first to run to the gate of the camp, and saw a young black man stumbling into the camp at a glance.He was covering his right arm with his left hand, and blood was dripping from between his fingers.

"What's going on?!" Li Shixi also rushed over, he quickly supported the young man, and asked as he walked to the operating room.

The young man was about 20 years old. Due to excessive blood loss, his lips were already a little pale, and his skin temperature was obviously low.He uttered a few words tremblingly, and Mia at the side translated: "He cut his hand while cutting down a tree."

While speaking, several people had already rushed to the operating room. Han Yujun put on his gloves and got ready, then nodded to Li Shixi. Li Shixi carefully helped the young man remove his left hand, exposing the wound——

"Ohmygod..." Someone beside him exclaimed in a low voice.

On the young man's arm was a huge scar of about 20 centimeters. The wound was very deep, and the bones could be seen vaguely. Moreover, probably because the knife was not sharp, the entire wound surface was uneven, and the flesh was high and low. Turned over, the shape is horrible, and there are large and small sawdust on it...

"Mia, help him get his blood type tested and prepare for a blood transfusion!" Han Yujun checked the wound, and then said to Mia beside him. Mia nodded, turned and ran out.Han Yujun turned around and continued: "The veins and tendons are ruptured, and there are foreign objects on the wound surface. I will help him stop the bleeding first, then clean the wound surface, and then we will suture the blood vessels and tendons."

Everyone nodded, and began to prepare medicines and utensils according to Han Yujun's arrangement.

Li Shixi helped put the surgical instruments to Han Yujun's hand, but when he looked up, he saw Du Rusong walking in.

"How is he?" Du Rusong looked at the wounded on the hospital bed and asked softly.

"The operation is a bit troublesome, but there will be no major problems." Han Yujun replied.

Du Rusong nodded, hesitated for a moment, as if he had something to say.

"Johnson, what's wrong?" Li Shixi asked.

"That's right, we just got the news that that tribe has been showing symptoms of malaria for 3 days, and there are signs of a large-scale spread. We must go there quickly. Because they are a little far away from us, we'd better start now, so that we can catch up Come back at night..."

Han Yujun and Li Shixi were both taken aback when they heard this.

"However, this operation is time-consuming, about 2-3 hours..." Han Yujun hesitated.

"How about that, Han you stay for the operation, Johnson, I will go with you." Li Shixi said to Du Rusong.

"It would be the best if this is the case. Shawn won't be able to leave. It would be easier for us to have a doctor go to deal with the problem." Du Rusong said, "Is Han you okay alone?"

"I'm fine." Han Yujun turned his attention to Li Shixi. He had heard about the Diwa tribe. Their patriarch was notoriously stubborn and refused to accept medical examination or treatment from Doctors Without Borders. Li Shixi had no connection with these people at all. The experience of dealing with clans...

Sensing the worry in Han Yujun's eyes, Li Shixi quickly said, "Don't worry, I have no experience, but with Johnson around, I will follow his arrangements."

The situation is urgent, and Han Yujun also understands that this is the only way to do it.So he nodded and said to Li Shixi: "Be careful in everything, I will go over here as soon as I finish."

"Don't worry." Li Shixi replied simply, turned around and followed Du Rusong out of the operating room, Sam was already waiting for them in the car.The car drove out of the camp at high speed, heading towards the place where the plague had broken out.
