Traveling through time, I'm making pancakes in Warhammer

Chapter 422 Asymptomatic

Liu Peng's car was completely destroyed. After calling the police and copying the other party's insurance policy, he was going to make a more detailed statement, but after he explained the situation, he switched to recording the scene for archiving, and then they were taken to the hospital by police car.

However, Liu Peng observed that these policemen also looked listless... Of course, as public officials, they also paid attention to their own image, but Liu Peng could see that they were also very tired and uncomfortable, and were just forcing themselves to be energetic.

"Actually, it's probably useless for you to go to the hospital right now." On the way to the hospital, the traffic police officer sitting in the passenger seat turned his head and said to Liu Peng, "There may be a serious flu outbreak recently. The hospital is already overcrowded. If your friend is not seriously unwell, it's best to rest at home."

"His condition is very serious!" Liu Peng said firmly: "You didn't see it, just now, just now he..."

Liu Peng almost said "his eyes were shining just now", but he thought that even if he said it, the teacher probably wouldn't believe it, so he emphasized:

"Anyway, I must take him to see a doctor. Even if I have to wait in line for a long time, I will accompany him."

The traffic police nodded and stopped asking questions.

The police car stopped some distance away from the hospital because the road ahead was blocked.

After getting off the car, Liu Peng immediately took a breath, because he looked around and saw that the area around the hospital was crowded with people. Although the traffic police had warned him that there would be a lot of people, he really didn't expect there to be so many people.

Seen from above, patients filled every corner of the hospital like green moss growing wildly on dirty river water. The crowded people moved slowly and blindly, unable to control their own direction.

If the hospital had not dispatched far more volunteers and security guards than usual, and also called in police to maintain order, such a dense flow of people alone could have caused big problems.

At the same time, in order to cope with the far-reaching flow of people, the hospital requisitioned two roads at the entrance and set up temporary tents on them for consultations and the accommodation of patients.

The fine rain never stopped. The awning set up by the hospital could not block everything. Rainwater fell from the corners of the plastic shed, then became turbid under the trampling of people and splashed onto other people. So everyone was wet and dirty. The crying of children and the honking of cars hurt people's ears.

Liu Peng's scalp tingled just by looking at so many people. He thought, how can this be the flu? Is this a zombie virus leak?

He was just about to back out, but when he saw his friend looking listless next to him, he steeled himself and took out a mask and put it on, then resolutely joined the crowd in line.

After waiting in line for a long time, and until Liu Peng and his friend became wet and dirty, they finally saw a doctor.

The first time Liu Peng saw the doctor, he said "not good", because he saw that the doctor who was having a consultation in the semi-open air had the same fatigue in his eyes and eyebrows that the mask could not cover, just like the two traffic policemen.

It's bad, the doctor is also sick.

"Name, age, weight, phone number..."

After my friend sat in the patient chair, the doctor asked him a few questions as usual, but he still looked absent-minded, so Liu Peng had to answer on his behalf.

And through the doctor's tone and expression, Liu Peng further confirmed that the doctor was indeed sick.

The fatigue of doctors also includes pain. The source of this fatigue and pain is not the extraordinary workload, but the same thing that affects traffic police and even gay friends.

After filling in the basic information, the doctor asked:

"symptom."

My friend was still not in the right state, so Liu Peng had to continue to answer on his behalf:

"I don't know what happened today, but he suddenly fell into a deep sleep. Even when I banged on the door, he wouldn't wake up. But when I broke the door open and turned over to check on him, he suddenly became very irritable and distressed. It was as if he was in a nightmare and couldn't distinguish between dreams and reality. Then when he calmed down, he became like this... I remember his eyes seemed to be shining at the time?!"

Of course, he couldn't hide it from the doctor. Even if Liu Peng knew and told him that his gay friend's eyes were shining, he probably wouldn't believe it.

However, unexpectedly, when Liu Peng was racking his brains to summarize his gay friend's condition, the doctor's attention gradually shifted from his gay friend to him.

When Liu Peng finished saying this and looked at the doctor again, he was shocked again.

Because the doctor's eyes were also shining.

Of course, unlike the gay friend’s “eyes are glowing” which is a declarative sentence, the doctor’s “eyes are glowing” is a metaphor.

At this moment, the doctor's eyes are shining like a graduate student who has found the target bacteria in a laboratory dish.

"Uh..." The doctor's gaze made Liu Peng feel uncomfortable: "Is there something wrong with me?"

"Are you feeling unwell?" the doctor asked.

Liu Peng rolled his eyes, wondering if he too had considered himself a patient, so he answered truthfully, "No, I'm fine."

Liu Peng originally thought that the doctor was just asking this question out of professional habit, but he didn't expect that after Liu Peng answered, the light in the doctor's eyes became even brighter.

"You! You! Don't walk around!" the doctor said excitedly. He even left his seat and "pounced" over to grab Liu Peng, as if he was afraid that he would suddenly grow wings and fly away.

"Okay, okay, I won't leave." Liu Peng slightly pushed the doctor away. "But why are you suddenly so excited?"

"I'll explain it later! I'll explain it later!" After the doctor stabilized Liu Peng or was stabilized by Liu Peng, he hurriedly took out his mobile phone and dialed a number tremblingly.

Drip—drip—

But no one answered the number dialed.

"Old man! Answer the phone!" The doctor hung up the phone impatiently and called again.

Drip—drip—

Still no one answered.

After several calls went unanswered, the doctor hung up and said, "Fuck!"

Then he looked at Liu Peng, who was confused, and moved closer to Liu Peng and said:

"You stay here! You stay here! Don't go anywhere! I'll go get the teacher! I'll go get the teacher! Don't go anywhere! This is very important!"

Although Liu Peng was puzzled, he could only nod in agreement. However, the doctor was still worried, so he called the security guard who was maintaining order nearby and pointed at Liu Peng and said to him:

"Keep an eye on him, keep an eye on him. Don't let him go anywhere, even if you have to use force. I'll take responsibility for anything that goes wrong."

Liu Peng's eyelids twitched twice. "Hey, buddy, isn't it a bit inappropriate for you to say these things in front of me?"

But the doctor had no time to explain these things. After giving his instructions, he left Liu Peng, his gay friend, and the long line of patients behind them and ran away.

Liu Peng: “…”

The doctor ran away, but considering what he had promised before, Liu Peng could only sit down and wait.

Waiting is already painful, especially when there is a queue behind them.

Liu Peng didn't know what happened, and the patients behind him didn't know what happened either, but they could see that the doctor left because of Liu Peng, so they would instinctively blame the cost of waiting on Liu Peng.

Although they didn't say anything, Liu Peng still felt a little uneasy, just like how his teacher always scolded them when he was in school: you wasted a minute, and there are so many people in a class, if you waste a minute for each person, it is equivalent to wasting almost an hour for the whole class.

Although such a reprimand is typical sophistry, it does work.

Fortunately, the unbearable wait did not last too long. Soon Liu Peng saw the patients on both sides being separated by volunteers and police, and the doctor who had been there before came back with a group of people in white coats.

He pointed at Liu Peng from a distance and said to the middle-aged and powerful man beside him:

"Teacher! It's him! He has no symptoms!"
