University Doctor and His Fragile Patients

Chapter 489 399: Kidnapping the Doctor for My Wife!

No...

What just happened?!

The cameraman holding the live broadcast camera stood dumbfounded in place.

His brain hadn't processed everything yet.

He had followed the show's guest out of Hai City University.

Shooting the process of the guest buying milk tea.

Then.

Suddenly, a car rushed towards them.

And then.

???

-

"No, where's my Dr. Chen?"

"What exactly just happened?"

"I can hardly believe it. In broad daylight, under the open sky..."

"Right in front of everyone, in front of the live camera, they so boldly took him away. Did you capture the license plate number? Call the police!"

"I'm about to go crazy. I originally came to watch a show about a campus doctor's life, and now it's turning into a crime show?!"

"Stop debating what type of show it is, can we just get my Dr. Chen back?"

"The production team should at least provide some response plan, right? A guest was taken during your recording, can't the team do anything?"

"Is it possible that the other party's moves were so fast that even if we chased them, we couldn't save Dr. Chen? Still, hurry up and call the police."

"..."

-

Chen Mu never imagined.

He would encounter something so absurd in his lifetime.

Thinking back to the past.

When a patient's family member chased him with a fruit knife in the hospital.

They never thought to kidnap him.

He never expected to face an abduction one day.

Chen Mu sat quietly, allowing them to control him.

Silently calculating the situation in his mind.

He was now in a high-speed van.

Even if he could take on the person who grabbed him.

If he wasn't sure he could get the driver to pull over.

Even if he could handle this kidnapper beside him, the risk of jumping out of the car was too high.

He might hurt himself.

It's possible.

But not necessary.

However...

Chen Mu used his still rapidly working mind to recall that moment.

Everything.

Happened in front of the live camera.

His abduction wasn't just known by someone who could call the police for him.

The broadcast would also draw considerable attention.

So.

What he needed to do now wasn't to take risks.

But to.

Ensure his safety until the police rescue him.

With this in mind.

Chen Mu's gaze fell on the person who dragged him into the car.

He was a middle-aged man, at least 1.8 meters tall.

Not particularly muscular, but Chen Mu could see his frame was likely well-toned.

Most likely someone who does a lot of physical labor.

All along.

Many misunderstandings exist about people who do physical labor.

People think those with great strength all look very muscular.

In reality.

In real life.

Many people who do physical labor may still look lean and thin.

An old thin man can carry a fridge up seven or eight flights of stairs.

A lean middle-aged man can carry 200 pounds of water up Mount Tai.

These people.

Weren't born strong but gained strength through life's burdens.

The man beside Chen Mu was likely such a person.

Chen Mu tried to appear as calm as possible: "Hello, may I ask why you brought me into the car?"

Before the police arrive.

Don't recklessly provoke them.

This was the silent warning Chen Mu kept giving himself.

Until the police arrived, he needed to gather as much information as possible.

Unexpectedly.

The man didn't directly answer Chen Mu's question but countered: "If you treat a patient outside your legal practice area, would you doctors be reported for illegal medical practice?"

Chen Mu nodded: "That's indeed possible..."

Before he could finish.

Suddenly.

The sharp blade pressed against his neck.

Gulp—

Due to extreme tension.

Chen Mu instinctively swallowed.

But even that simple motion made him feel the blade nearing his artery.

Chen Mu: "!!!"

He was just answering truthfully! Why did this provoke him?!

"Under normal circumstances, if you help me treat someone, it would be illegal medical practice."

When the man beside him began speaking, Chen Mu blinked.

He calmed down completely.

Because.

He seemed to suddenly understand.

Understand...

Why the man beside him would abduct him in plain sight.

As Chen Mu was still pondering.

The person beside him continued: "I'm sorry, Dr. Chen. We know our actions are excessive, and we'll take full legal responsibility but..."

Before he could finish, Chen Mu interrupted: "Tell me about the patient's condition first."

Man: "My wife began experiencing varying degrees of skin allergies about three years ago."

Chen Mu: "Varying degrees, to what extent?"

Man: "Initially, she felt itchy skin, later she developed some frightening raised rashes, and we've visited various dermatology departments many times."

"Every time, the medication prescribed was effective, but..."

Having heard numerous similar statements from patients' families.

Without needing the man to elaborate, Chen Mu roughly figured it out.

Chen Mu: "So you mean, although the medication worked each time, it was only treating the symptoms and not the cause?"

Seeing the man nod, Chen Mu sighed softly and continued: "Has your wife's condition worsened significantly?"

The man kept nodding: "My wife suddenly experienced severe abdominal pain; we could feel something hard in her stomach, and then she started vomiting blood."

Chen Mu: "Why kidnap me instead of calling for an ambulance?"

Man: "There was a roadblock incident, and I resorted to this last measure."

Chen Mu pursed his lips.

Preparing to probe further, he heard the man clarify: "A severe multi-car accident occurred, causing a shortage of ambulances, and..."

"Moreover, traffic is so congested, even if we tried reaching a hospital, we'd be stuck."

Chen Mu: "I recall there's an ambulance stationed at Hai City University's entrance, ready to serve nearby residents."

Man: "Doctor, did you see an emergency ambulance outside when you exited the campus?"

Chen Mu: "..."

Thinking back.

There really wasn't one.

Man: "That's because all nearby ambulances were redirected for the major accident."

Saying this.

The man gripped the knife even more firmly: "Dr. Chen, I'll take all the blame. I won't let you face the risk of practicing medicine illegally, as long as you save my wife."

Chen Mu was about to say something more.

But then he saw the young driver tapping a plastic bag beside him: "We bought acupuncture needles; Dr. Chen, with your skills, you'll find a way."
