CHAPTER 79: CHAPTER 74 GOLDEN NEEDLE SAINT HAND

Seeing the old gentleman take the emergency medicine, not only Xiao Lin and Xiao Hao breathed a sigh of relief, but even the students watching nearby collectively breathed a sigh of relief.

Especially Xiao Hao, this matter, though not big, is not small either. If the family of the victim was unreasonable and blamed it on him, even with so many students as witnesses, he couldn’t stay in this school. Gratefully, he glanced at Xiao Lin and said, "Doctor, thank you so much!"

"Why thank me?" Xiao Lin asked a bit puzzled: "Is this your relative?"

"No, no, I don’t know him. I just saw him squatting here, so I came to take a look!" Xiao Hao said.

"Then why are you thanking me? You’re doing a good deed; the school should commend you!" Xiao Lin smiled gently. He was unaware of the recent uproar over the Mrs. Xu incident.

"Brother Hao is afraid that if anything happened to this old gentleman, his family would act just like the uproar over Mrs. Xu last time, ending in a tragic situation!" said a previously frightened student to Xiao Lin.

"The Mrs. Xu incident? What happened?" Xiao Lin was even more confused. He wasn’t in the country a few months ago, so there was nothing worth investigating about this matter.

"You don’t know?" The student looked at Xiao Lin strangely. However, because Xiao Lin had just saved the old gentleman with superior medical skill, he showed respect, though thinking: No way, even a hardcore recluse wouldn’t ignore these events. How could he not know?

"I really don’t know. I wasn’t in the country recently and only came back!" Xiao Lin was honest. Of course, others might have assumed he went abroad for travel or further study, not suspecting him to have been elsewhere for other reasons.

"Oh, no wonder. At the time..." The student explained the whole Mrs. Xu incident carefully to Xiao Lin, leaving him dumbfounded that such shameless things happen in the world?

"Can the judge still serve in this capacity?" Xiao Lin asked in disbelief. The matter was beyond his imagination. A kind-hearted person helping an injured elderly was accused of harming the elder, and even more absurd, the court determined the case based on what they claimed as common sense, leaving Xiao Lin speechless.

"Not sure about that, but there’s a rumor that the judge was transferred from the court and assigned to a remote area’s legal office. We’re not too clear on the details!"

"What about the Xu family?"

"I’m not very clear on that, but I estimate they’re not doing well. After such a big scandal, probably no one dares to provoke their family!"

"Moral decay!" Xiao Lin exclaimed angrily: "How can there be such people in this world? The whole family doesn’t deserve pity. In the future, if an elder from any family accidentally has an accident outside, who would dare to help?"

"Exactly, I heard that recently another elderly lady in that area fell accidentally. No one dared to help, and by the time the ambulance arrived, she died from a heart attack. If someone had approached to check, maybe such a situation could have been avoided. The situation was similar to this old gentleman!" Xiao Hao added: "Thinking about Mrs. Xu, and the elderly lady who received no help because of her incident, that’s why we came over!"

By this time, the ambulance had arrived. Although the elderly gentleman was still unconscious, his pulse was stable, and breathing smooth; there seemed to be no major issues. Xiao Lin stood up and saw the ambulance had stopped outside the sports ground. A few nurses and doctors were rushing over. Xiao Lin waved to the surrounding students: "The doctors are here, clear a path, so this gentleman can be taken to the hospital for treatment as soon as possible!"

Xiao Lin, who manually resuscitated this ’dead’ man without heartbeat and breath, earned the students’ admiration. Naturally, they would listen to Xiao Lin, with some secretly recording the rescue scene and posting it online.

A middle-aged doctor, around fifty years old, wearing a white coat, approached with an intern and a nurse. Upon seeing Xiao Lin, his eyes brightened, and he said directly, "Young man, didn’t expect to find you here; you were hard to locate!"

Seeing this middle-aged doctor, Xiao Lin didn’t have a favorable impression. He was the doctor who came last during a car accident on Xiao Lin’s first day of work. But now, the doctor had a much softer demeanor, confusing Xiao Lin, though he didn’t wish to engage, he simply stated: "This gentleman had a sudden heart attack, his heartbeat and breathing ceased. After immediate rescue, he’s in no life-threatening condition now, but I suggest taking him to the hospital for careful treatment. A check for angina or myocardial infarction is suggested, and also a focus on the lungs!"

After speaking, Xiao Lin prepared to leave. The middle-aged doctor wanted to keep him, but hearing Xiao Lin say the gentleman’s condition was severe, he couldn’t help but focus on the gentleman, and was startled with a cold sweat, exclaiming, "The old principal? Quickly, hurry up, why doesn’t the old principal listen?" Not daring to delay, the doctor had to prioritize treating this gentleman over preventing Xiao Lin from leaving.

"Young man, I’m really sorry about last time!" The middle-aged man said to Xiao Lin’s departing back after loading the gentleman onto the stretcher.

Xiao Lin was taken aback but soon relieved. It seemed this middle-aged doctor wasn’t negligent and might have recognized something from his needlework. However, Xiao Lin didn’t stay, glancing at his phone and seeing it was nearly eight o’clock, he quickly headed towards the campus hospital, not wanting to be late frequently.

The middle-aged doctor felt regret seeing that young man not stay. Then he patted his head, realizing that seeing the young man nearby early in the morning likely meant he was staff at Yan University, so he began inquiring from the students: "Do you know where that young man is from?"

"You mean the Golden Needle Saint Hand? He’s a new doctor at our campus hospital, isn’t his medical skill superb?" The surrounding students, seeing the big hospital doctor asking about Xiao Lin, felt proud, as if it were them, and quickly shared Xiao Lin’s heroic deeds with the middle-aged doctor.

The middle-aged man had no doubts about what the students said, nodding frequently. Knowing Xiao Lin was from the campus hospital, he felt hopeful for the old principal’s heart condition.
