I Became the Little Demon in Leading Role's Family

Chapter 739: Chapter 747: Taking a Child on a Trip?

Bai Zhi didn’t make a fuss and continued to eat while she looked at him.

“Captain Hann, how long will it take to reach the Death Desert after we arrive?”

Only by knowing this could she judge how long it would take to find what they were looking for. Although Bai Zhi was eating, she was genuinely more anxious than anyone else.

Because she knew better than anyone else just how severe the situation could be.

The situation in the hospital hadn’t improved much either with almost everyone who came in either known or having been in contact previously, leading everyone to suspect it might be a contagious human-to-human transmission.

The Ancestor immediately ordered a check on everyone they had been in contact with from yesterday until now, bringing them all into a cold storage to start the examination. They had to catch the culprit.

It was unclear who had leaked the news, but most people remained rational, knowing that if there really was a problem, the state would not ignore it.

Immediately, a press conference was broadcasted on all television platforms, and Old Han stood up to explain to everyone.

“Hello everyone, I am Old Han. This incident is not a contagious disease, so everyone can be reassured. The reason why so many people are being checked is that we need to catch the main culprit, and it’s because of this,”

Old Han pulled out a special bottle containing the bug, and all cameras immediately focused on it, aiming to capture what exactly it was as quickly as possible.

Old Han and a few others, also students of the Ancestor and giants in various fields of medical expertise, all said the same, further affirming the accuracy of the situation.

They all kept their information tight, referring to the Ancestor publicly as Laosan of the Bai Family.

“This is a bug that lives underground and doesn’t spread in any conventional way, you could say… those bitten exhibit symptoms and the toxicity decreases over time. Rest assured, a group of the most admirable people have already set out to shoulder the burden ahead to find an antidote, a specific herb where this bug originates.”

Old Han continued to explain, fearing they might start to panic, which could spell disaster for Nanning.

“I am currently investigating potential bite victims, so there’s no need for everyone to panic. Once we find the last bug, there will be no more infections, and of course, it’s recommended that everyone wash their hands frequently and focus on personal hygiene, etc…”

Following this were the journalists’ questions, everyone eager to know the actual truth and hoping to find a solution.

“Right, we already have a strategy for this bug, currently mainly in the form of traditional medicine which can stabilize the condition while being mild on the system…”

Old Han and their explanations managed to temporarily stabilize public sentiment. After the press conference, they had already brought back several hundred people, and Old Han, following the Ancestor, began eliminating suspects one by one, finally finding the last bug which had grown exceptionally large.

The hospital’s rapid response convinced those contemplating leaving Nanning to stay.

Because they were willing to trust those angels fighting on the front lines of the disease.

…

After getting off the plane, Bai Zhi’s IV had just finished. She took a lot of chocolates, giving Hann Lin the feeling that kids indeed will be kids.

Of course, Bai Zhi didn’t care and continued to pack up lots of water and also pots and pans.

It looked more like preparing for a vacation than a mission. Everything was there, and Hann Lin could cope, but the others couldn’t stand it anymore.

“No,” he scoffed coldly, “Little sister, do you even know what we are here for? We’re here to find a medicinal herb to save lives, those fresh lives behind us, and here you are, playing around, bringing all this unnecessary stuff…”

He hadn’t finished speaking when he met Bai Zhi’s icy gaze as she coldly turned to Hann Lin.

“Captain Hann, I’ve always admired you and respected you, but I hope you can give me the same trust. I don’t know what it’s like inside, but everything I brought is essential, and don’t worry, I’ll carry it myself.”

Bai Zhi prepared to carry a bag and then one suitcase in each hand.

Captain Hann and the others didn’t believe it at all, how could they, with her tiny arms and legs.

“And take more chocolate, those self-heating rice and the like should not be brought, nor the hot water, and those military ration biscuits. Don’t bring them because that kind of bug likes the ingredients inside.”

Bai Zhi had sniffed those out as being not permissible, hence she chose high-calorie chocolate instead, as those self-heating meals were also a no-go.

Having a heat source meant it was their food.

“Okay.”

Hann Lin agreed right away, not knowing why but their orders after getting off the plane were to follow the command.

But the person who had spoken before stealthily kept a piece of military ration biscuit.

Soon they got in the car and met up with Moh Li, with whom they were very familiar. After meeting, Hann Lin and he immediately hugged.

Moh Li walked up to Bai Zhi, frowning and looking somewhat displeased at her.

That other person, Wang Ze, was particularly happy that Doctor Moh Li had arrived, thinking it was time to disgrace Bai Zhi.

Who knew that the next moment, he would see the usually stern and unsmiling Moh Li actually smile.

He smiled!

That always grim-faced Doctor Moh Li, who looked like he had facial paralysis, actually smiled, making them feel the world was incredibly surreal.

“Such a pale complexion, why so disobedient?”

Hearing about what Bai Zhi had done made him feel a sudden clench in his heart.

He was particularly worried and wanted to see her immediately, his heart aching seeing her face devoid of color.

“It’s alright, let’s set off quickly, every minute we delay puts them at greater risk.”

Moh Li also nodded solemnly, and they immediately set off, with Bai Zhi too tired and leaning on Moh Li, falling asleep.

Wang Ze immediately asked Moh Li, “Doctor Moh Li, you know this little sister, I don’t know what the higher-ups were thinking, letting such a girl, who looks like she’s on a vacation, join us, isn’t this just weighing us down?”

Moh Li listened, frowning, which in Wang Ze’s view meant he was also reluctant.

“Maybe the one who ends up dragging us down will be you. Bai Zhi is my junior sister, yet her medical skills surpass mine.”

Moh Li’s statement made Wang Ze’s eyes widen, unable to believe it.

Who knew how much time had passed, but soon the sunlight once again covered the land. Endless sand dunes stretched as far as the eye could see.

Bai Zhi took out something resembling a pocket watch, a device Xu Yan had given her, saying as long as they remembered to keep it near, they could find each other.

Now, this pocket watch suddenly had a direction indicator.
