Different World Card Master: Change the World with Cards

168: Road closuresSeveral days passed.

These days, the weather remained incredibly clear, which, to put it another way, meant it was scorching hot.

At a time when weather forecasting was still impossible, some people, by observing celestial phenomena, predicted that a strong typhoon was approaching.

To prepare for this typhoon and protect the wind power plants from being destroyed, the Government gathered everyone for a meeting to brainstorm ideas.

During the meeting, everyone expressed their opinions. The Government’s main actions would be pre-disaster and post-disaster, and since the typhoon’s path couldn’t be clearly predicted, time was quite urgent.

After the meeting, Liu Mengyan and others prepared coffee for the attendees.

After Xu Bai drank the coffee, he only felt his head spinning, then his vision darkened, and he collapsed onto the table, unconscious.

As his head was muddled, he was still thinking, ’Could it be that Wu Zijin was lying to him?’

Seeing Xu Bai’s unconscious state, everyone instantly stood up.

Some even looked at their recently sipped coffee with horror, worried that something might happen to them too.

At this moment, Wu Zijin was the first to react, rushing forward to check on Xu Bai’s condition.

Seeing Xu Bai completely unresponsive, he anxiously shouted, ”Call a doctor! Quickly!”

Next to react was Lei Feng.

”We should take him directly to the hospital. The hospital has more equipment and can more conveniently conduct tests on him.”

With that, he waved his hand, and his personal guards stepped forward to help him carry Xu Bai into the car.

After they left, Yin Su instructed the soldiers to guard everyone present and secure the scene of the incident. Whether it was a crime scene would depend on further investigation.

This investigation would be conducted by other personnel, and everyone present was on the investigation list, with no exceptions due to identity or status.

However, Yin Su still had some matters to arrange. To prevent private information exchange, he needed to make the arrangements openly in front of many people, and he could only speak, not write.

He had only two tasks to do.

The first was to inform Mr. Number Five of this matter immediately, and the second was to arrange the route for Xu Bai’s journey to the hospital.

After the arrangements were made, carrier pigeons flew off, sending out this critical news.

And critical it was. This was a time of rapid electrical energy development for the Tianlong Republic. If something happened to Xu Bai now, who would lead the future of electrical energy?

Furthermore, if Xu Bai was harmed by someone, no matter who it was, it would cause a major shock.

For a moment, a sharp ringing sound echoed in the hearts of everyone who witnessed the event.

Yin Su only hoped it wasn’t as he imagined... As the motorcade drove from the military zone to the city, the carrier pigeon flew directly to the Guard Bureau, and Guard Team Captain Meng Zhong received the letter.

The letter stated that the Guard Team needed to block the roads because the military zone needed to escort an important person to the First Hospital.

The letter also bore the governor’s seal and marked the incident as the highest level of urgency.

Therefore, Meng Zhong took it very seriously. After reading the letter, he immediately ordered the city’s Guard Team to be on high alert and take action.

The Guard Team swiftly and continuously sealed off the road from the military zone to the First Hospital, awaiting the arrival of the motorcade to ensure it could reach the hospital without obstruction...

”What’s happening ahead? Why are so many people stopped there?”

Many people in the Tianlong Republic had a curious nature, and seeing a crowd ahead, they immediately started asking for news.

The person he asked was not impatient; instead, he first pretended to look around, then put a hand to his mouth.

Although his voice didn’t get softer when he replied, this gesture made everyone feel like they were whispering, making them even more excited.

”The road on the street ahead has been blocked by the Guard Team; it’s impassable.”

Hearing this news, the newcomer stood on tiptoes, trying to see what the scene ahead was like, but unfortunately, he was too short and could only see others’ backs, so he helplessly continued to ask, ”Is it just this one street?”

”No, this time it’s different from the last Energy Guild explosion. This time, many streets have been blocked. I heard people say that the entire route from the city gate to the First Hospital has been sealed off.”

How did he know such a long route was blocked? The newcomer looked at the other person with suspicion.

”How do you know such a long road has been blocked?”

The person quickly explained, clearing his name, afraid of being reported as a cultist.

”I was just returning home from a hospital visit, and the entire way was blocked. I also met people coming from the city gate, that’s how I found out the situation. Look, I still have my hospital bill.”

The person pulled out the bill to show it.

Others who were eavesdropping nearby stopped their feet, which had been about to walk towards the Guard Team.

If this person had been hesitant, he might have been reported immediately.

Everyone heard that the entire route was blocked and felt that something major was about to happen.

”Oh my goodness, it feels like a very important person is going to the hospital.”

”That must be an important person, after all, the entire Guard Team has been dispatched. I just wonder how important they are, I’m so curious.”

”Who isn’t? If we wait here for a while, I wonder if we’ll be able to see what the important person looks like.”

...In the distance, a motorcade sped towards them.

At this time, only the officials had cars, so when Meng Zhong saw the motorcade, he knew the people he was waiting for had arrived.

The motorcade paused at the city gate, and Meng Zhong quickly got into the first car alone, as he was to guide the motorcade.

He didn’t exchange pleasantries, as no one was in the mood for it at this moment.

”Go straight ahead, turn right after 6 intersections, then turn left after 4 intersections...”

The soldier driving the car followed Meng Zhong’s instructions, driving at high speed.

The onlookers by the roadside could only see several cars speeding away like a gust of wind, unable to clearly see the people inside...

Soon, the motorcade arrived at the First Hospital.

The director, along with several doctors, had been waiting at the entrance for a long time.

After the motorcade stopped, Lei Feng and the personal guards carried Xu Bai onto a medical bed and, accompanied by doctors, entered the hospital through a special aisle.

Along this passage, people were stationed every five steps, all with serious expressions, moving quickly.

Wu Zijin fell a step behind, running to catch up.

Upon reaching the destination, the doctors examined Xu Bai’s body in a transparent room containing star energy stone.

Although everyone was very anxious, their movements were highly professional and orderly.

Lei Feng and the other soldiers watched the doctors’ actions inside with sharp eyes, preventing anyone from causing trouble.

This was the scene Wu Zijin saw when he arrived.

At this moment, no one spoke; they were all waiting for the examination results.
