Chapter 12: They Are All Wrong
Magic City's Zhongshan Hospital was bustling and crowded, filled with the clamor of voices.
As one of the most renowned hospitals in Xia Country, Zhongshan Hospital excelled in cardiovascular diseases, comprehensive diagnosis and treatment of liver cancer, respiratory system diseases, general surgery, and endoscopic diagnosis and treatment. Its disciplinary strength, research capabilities, and clinical techniques were famous worldwide.
Su Yuan stood at the entrance of Zhongshan Hospital, feeling deeply emotional.
When he had first transmigrated, to test the gray mirror's abilities, he had asked how to cure his heart disease.
The gray mirror's first answer had been to go to Zhongshan Hospital, have Lu Fusheng perform the surgery, and after a period of recuperation, he would be cured.
At that time, he hadn't even considered this option.
Magic City's Zhongshan Hospital? How could someone like him have gone there back then?
But now? Su Yuan was standing right in front of this very hospital.
"At this moment, Zhou Weiwei, the heiress of the Zhou Corporation, should be lying in the special ward on the top floor. In two hours, she will die from cardiac arrest."
Su Yuan thought to himself.The Zhou Corporation, also known as Zhou Pharmaceutical, was one of the nine major pharmaceutical companies in Magic City. With nearly a century of heritage, it controlled almost one-tenth of Magic City's pharmaceutical industry, making it a pharmaceutical giant in Xia Country.
Unfortunately, the Zhou family, the controlling family of Zhou Pharmaceutical, suffered from congenital hereditary heart disease. The first and second generation leaders had both died from it.
Now the only remaining third-generation heiress, Zhou Weiwei, would soon die from it too.
From then on, the Zhou family, the controlling family of Zhou Pharmaceutical, would exist in name only.
In fact, since the second generation leader, they had already lost interest in managing the enterprise, instead seeking everywhere for ways to delay the heart disease.
Unfortunately, nothing had worked.
As for Zhou Pharmaceutical? It was basically handed over to Tang Zhien to manage.
Tang Zhien could be considered part of Zhou Pharmaceutical's second-generation management, a trusted subordinate of the first-generation leader.
Nearly a century ago, during the turmoil in Xia Country, countless people were displaced. Tang Zhien was among the refugees, starving to death until the first-generation leader of the Zhou family took him in, saving his life.
Through decades of trials and tribulations, he had become the true helmsman of Zhou Pharmaceutical.
"Quite loyal indeed."
Su Yuan nodded slightly.
Tang Zhien held absolute power in Zhou Pharmaceutical, and with the only third-generation Zhou family member having little time left,
rumors were circulating that Zhou Pharmaceutical might soon be renamed Tang Pharmaceutical, that Zhou Pharmaceutical was about to change owners, and so on.
There were even malicious speculations that the reason Zhou Weiwei, the third-generation heiress of Zhou Pharmaceutical, had so little time left was because Tang Zhien was secretly manipulating things.
Once Zhou Weiwei died, with no legal heir left for Zhou Pharmaceutical, Tang Zhien would completely control the company.
However.
Through the gray mirror, Su Yuan clearly knew that Tang Zhien had no intention of taking over Zhou Pharmaceutical.
In fact, everything he was doing now was according to the first-generation leader's instructions, to ensure Zhou Pharmaceutical's continuation.
From beginning to end, Tang Zhien had remained utterly loyal to the Zhou family, even going so far as to spare no effort to keep Zhou Weiwei alive, inviting renowned cardiologists from around the world to treat her.
......
Following the stairs of Zhongshan Hospital, Su Yuan quickly reached the top floor.
The top floor of Zhongshan Hospital had only five wards, with the maximum allocation of doctors and nurses, specifically serving the privileged class.
Additionally.
Security on the top floor was extremely tight, with over thirty security guards patrolling twenty-four hours a day.
Su Yuan stopped before the stairwell entrance, checked the time, and waited until exactly 4:36:20 PM before pushing open the stairwell door.
Click~ Su Yuan entered the top floor.
At that moment, the nearest security guard had just left, and the next guard wouldn't reach this spot for another ten seconds. For a brief moment, Su Yuan's location became an extremely rare blind spot on the top floor.
As for the top floor surveillance? Before Su Yuan arrived, he had already hacked the surveillance system using hacker techniques, making the footage loop continuously. It would take at least an hour before anyone noticed anything abnormal.
Then Su Yuan headed directly toward Ward 3, which was where Zhou Weiwei was staying.
Along the way, every step Su Yuan took was within the blind spots of the over thirty patrolling security guards. Medical staff did see Su Yuan.
But since security hadn't stopped him, they assumed he was a family member of a patient and didn't question him.
Thus, in the heavily secured top floor wards, Su Yuan moved as if through an unguarded territory.
All of this naturally relied on the gray mirror's omniscient methods.
When Su Yuan asked the gray mirror how to reach Zhou Weiwei's Ward 3 undetected, the gray mirror's answer was to enter the top floor from the stairwell entrance at exactly 4:36:20 PM.
Within the entire day, only at this precise moment could one smoothly avoid the top floor security patrols and enter Ward 3 openly without any effort.
Standing at the door of Ward 3, Su Yuan pushed it open and entered.
The ward was spacious, filled with various medical machines.
In the center of the ward, a girl of about sixteen or seventeen lay on the hospital bed.
The girl wore an oxygen mask, her face as pale as paper, eyes closed tightly, unconscious.
Beside the bed stood two people: an elderly man wearing a Chinese tunic suit and a middle-aged woman.
Su Yuan naturally knew the identities of all three people in the ward.
The one lying on the bed was, of course, Zhou Weiwei.
The elderly man in the Chinese tunic suit was Tang Zhien.
The middle-aged woman was a senior executive of Zhou Pharmaceutical, here to report the company's situation to Tang Zhien.
Su Yuan's footsteps were almost silent, and it was only after he had been standing there for a while that Tang Zhien noticed something was wrong.
"Who are you?"
Tang Zhien's pupils contracted as he stared at the man who seemed to have appeared out of thin air in the ward.
"How did you get in?" The middle-aged woman reacted much more strongly. They had only just noticed such a large living person in the ward.
"Security..."
The middle-aged woman was about to stand up and call for help loudly.
But Tang Zhien stopped her.
"What does sir wish to do?"
Tang Zhien looked at Su Yuan gravely.
Compared to the middle-aged woman, he was much calmer.
He clearly understood that since Su Yuan could bypass the over thirty security guards on the top floor and appear silently in the ward, if he had wanted to harm them, he would have done so already.
Su Yuan smiled slightly, not answering the question. Instead, he walked to the bedside and carefully observed Zhou Weiwei.
This action made Tang Zhien tense up, clearly very concerned about Zhou Weiwei.
"I can cure her."
Su Yuan suddenly spoke, his tone calm, as if mentioning some trivial matter.
"Cure Weiwei?"
Tang Zhien was stunned.
The middle-aged woman beside him frowned, glancing at Tang Zhien again.
"Sir can cure Weiwei?"
Tang Zhien thought for a moment before speaking:
"Weiwei's heart disease is congenital and hereditary, with almost no hope of a complete cure."
"Even a heart transplant surgery wouldn't work; Weiwei's body simply can't withstand such a major operation."
"Over the years, I've invited many renowned cardiology experts from home and abroad for Weiwei, and they all concluded that we can only temporarily prolong her life. Director Lu Fusheng of Zhongshan Hospital just came to see Weiwei and reached the same conclusion."
As he spoke, Tang Zhien observed Su Yuan's reaction.
Su Yuan glanced at Tang Zhien and said flatly, "That's because they're all wrong."
