Chapter 326: Chapter 326

"Should they really dare to do that in such a competition?"

"What wouldn’t Little R dare to do?"

"Did you guys notice how good Matsumoto Mina’s Chinese was?"

"Yeah, she didn’t use a simultaneous interpreter. Aside from a few specific consonant sounds being slightly off, the rest was pretty perfect!"

"What’s there to praise about that? It just shows she’s studied our language, even medicine, and came prepared, folks."

"Go An Yan, you can do it!"

"What kind of patient is An Yan preparing? Make sure it’s not too simple a case."

Amidst everyone’s anticipation, An Yan began her introduction. "The three patients we’ve invited are Mr. Wang Jian, a stomach cancer patient; Mr. Jiang Runzhe, a patient with a cardiac mass; and Mr. Zhang Mingliang, a herpes sufferer."

The students from Luocheng University Medical School immediately began to discuss among themselves.

"Why did An Yan prepare these three? Only stomach cancer is somewhat challenging, isn’t it?"

"Isn’t a cardiac mass just coronary heart disease? My goodness, with R Country’s capabilities, a simple surgery would do."

"And what the heck is herpes? A little anti-inflammatory medicine and it’s under control!"

"An Yan, are you being threatened? If someone’s threatening you, just blink your eyes."

An Yan’s mouth twitched slightly at the sounds from the audience.

The three patients felt somewhat embarrassed and asked if they could speak.

The host passed the microphone to them. Chapters fırst released on novel⚑fire.net

Jiang Runzhe took the microphone and spoke on behalf of the three. "Actually, we weren’t selected by Professor An; we volunteered."

"Professor An posted a notice in the hospital saying she needed three patients to cooperate with her in a competition against doctors from that country where Little R... is doing well!"

"But the other patients didn’t want to entrust their lives to doctors from Little R Country, for reasons... well... you all understand, right?"

Laughter erupted from the audience!

"That’s our compatriots for you! The anti-R gene has been planted deep in our bones."

"Little R is really up to no good, always causing trouble. This time, hopefully, An Yan can beat them black and blue."

For some reason, the audience suddenly started cheering for An Yan.

An Yan smiled and nodded. "I’ll do my best, thank you all!"

Matsumoto Mina and her party maintained expressionless faces, looking as if they couldn’t understand.

Jiang Runzhe continued, "Can everyone quiet down a bit? I’m not finished yet!"

The noise from the audience gradually subsided.

Jiang Runzhe was able to continue. "I wanted to say that I think our three conditions seem too mild!"

"Look at the patients on the opposite side. There’s a cancer patient who seems to have only one breath left, a pregnant woman with a big belly ready to give birth at any moment, and a person covered in spots who obviously can’t be cured of a skin disease in half a month."

"So, um, may I ask the host, can we change participants for the competition?"

He had already gone through his hospital friends in his head and was sure he could find three more patients with terminal illnesses! Like that patient who was just admitted to the emergency room yesterday—he was a good candidate! According to the family, it seemed they were at the end of their rope, only sending him to the hospital in hopes of a miracle...

"Change! Change! Change!" the students from the audience shouted in unison.

The host turned to look at the VIP seating.

The guests exchanged opinions, and eventually, Johns Nade shook his head at the host.

He actually felt it was a bit unfair, but Professor Eguchi Kyugen from R Country also had a point. "The rules of the competition were set from the beginning, and the people from Z Country knew about them. Why should someone be replaced at the last moment?"

The host could only say, "I’m sorry, but according to the competition procedures, we cannot replace the patient participants on short notice."

A chorus of boos filled the air from below the stage.

Matsumoto Mina took the microphone and said, "Although the rules do not allow it, as your opponent, I am willing to give the choice to our peers on the other team. If you think these three patients don’t meet your expectations, you’re welcome to change them!"

This generous gesture quickly earned her much praise.

"I think this Matsumoto Mina is not bad, huh."

"Maybe the other side is really just here for a friendly competition?"

"Naive! Would you issue a direct challenge for a friendly competition? In my opinion, this is simply a provocation!"

"Right, right, I have the same feeling. If she hadn’t said that, it would have seemed like they had prepared patients that were too malicious! But now that she has said it, no matter how Miss An Yan chooses, the word ’malicious’ definitely can’t be used on her."

"Miss An Yan, don’t fall into their trap! Change the patients!"

On stage, An Yan shook her head. "No need to change. These three willingly signed up for this competition because of their trust in me, and I hope our rivals will do their utmost to relieve them of their ailments!"

"Here, I would like to remind our rivals: in medicine, no case is too hard or too easy. Every patient deserves our dedicated care!"

"So, for these three individuals, I entrust them to you."

An Yan gave a slight bow.

The crowd made no more noise. Everyone was touched by An Yan’s words.

They were doctors; how could they categorize illnesses? Every patient deserved their dedicated treatment. Even in major illnesses, there could be vitality, and minor ailments could harbor hidden dangers. They had been superficial.

Matsumoto Mina revealed a sweet, innocuous smile. "We certainly will. Likewise, please put forth your best effort for the three patients we have brought, Miss An Yan."

With no further objections, the host continued with the procedure. "Then, please, let the three patients switch locations. Enter your designated wards."

"We have prepared three deluxe wards for each team, one highest-grade operating room, one conference room, and two rest rooms. Except for the rest rooms, which are camera-free, the cameras in all other rooms will be on twenty-four hours a day."

"Everything the contestants do and say in these areas may be streamed to countless netizens’ desktops via the cameras!"

"Experts, medical workers, medical students, and anyone passionate about medicine are welcome to come and watch the exchange."

"And we invite people from all walks of life to join our live broadcast room for discussion and observation!"

"Next, our competition officially begins. The live broadcast will start concurrently!"

"The competition will last half a month. During this time, team members can move freely in and out of the area, accessing medication and equipment—all with the priority of healing the patients..."

As the host spoke, the team members had already settled their patients into their respective rooms.

Matsumoto Mina approached An Yan with a smile. "Hello, Miss An Yan. I look forward to being under your care for the upcoming half month!"

As An Yan was about to extend her hand, Little Squirrel suddenly leaped into her palm and bared its teeth at Matsumoto Mina. "SQUEAK SQUEAK SQUEAK!"

The aura of this person made it very uncomfortable! It felt like its arch-enemy!!
