Chapter 305 - 218: Sudden Kidnapping
That evening, Su Mo took Dongdong to see a local prosthetic doctor.
Repairing a blown circuit was a basic operation that any qualified prosthetic doctor could handle, and it was quickly fixed.
Meanwhile, Chen Hao and his daughter also arrived at Saint Rive Center Hospital, and after registering, they were looking for a surgeon to treat her injury.
The surgeon was wearing a white coat with a name badge pinned to his chest, which read "Wen Ye."
Chen Hao and Pomelo sat quietly on the chairs waiting.
Wen Ye was operating the medical record system when his gaze suddenly froze on the screen. He looked at the information and said, "Hmm? Your daughter has an Rh-negative blood type?"
Chen Hao nodded: "Yes, the obstetrician told me when she was born that her blood type is quite rare, calling it ’panda blood.’
An unnoticeable glint flashed through Wen Ye’s eyes as he continued working with the medical record system.
He printed out a medical report and handed it to Chen Hao: "Here, you can pay at the machine outside and then follow the instructions to get the examinations done."
"Okay, thank you, Doctor." Chen Hao glanced over the medical report.
Looking at the list of examinations, he hesitated, "Doctor, why are there so many examinations? There’s even a B-scan and a CT... my daughter just fell on some glass, shouldn’t it just need wound treatment?"
Wen Ye patiently explained: "Glass can be very dangerous. Sometimes there might not be any apparent issue, but there could be glass fragments remaining inside that might pose a serious threat to life."
"We previously had a patient who didn’t treat a glass fall seriously. Later, the glass fragments triggered a severe inflammatory response internally, and ultimately, we couldn’t save him."
"For the child’s health, these examinations are necessary. The New Moon City medical insurance works here, it’s not expensive, don’t worry."
Chen Hao, who drove taxis and delivered food, didn’t understand medicine at all.
Moreover, he had indeed seen similar news before.
He felt this doctor was very responsible, so he thanked Wen Ye repeatedly.
Chen Hao took Pomelo out of the consultation room, paid for the various examinations, had the wound treated in the medical area, and then left together.
Late that night.
Wen Ye sat in his office, waiting, with the computer screen frozen on Pomelo’s medical record interface.
At that moment, a notification popped up.
Pomelo’s examination results were in.
Wen Ye clicked to carefully examine the images and data parameters, and soon a mysterious smile appeared on his face.
He took out his personal phone and made a call: "Hello, it’s me. I’ve found a suitable kidney donor here. I’ll send the information over for you to handle."
...
The next noon, the Edge tour group continued their vacation.
The youth have great vigor; Dongdong, who fought Shangguan Li until exhaustion and passed out last night, was full of energy after one night’s sleep, running around the beach with KK.
Su Mo was wearing beach shorts, enjoying the breeze on a lounge chair.
Shangguan Li, who had gotten familiar with the Edge over the past two days, was eating tropical fruits next to Su Mo.
Just as Su Mo was lulled into a pleasant drowsiness by the sea breeze, he heard a familiar voice: "Mr. Su Mo..."
Su Mo opened his eyes and saw Chen Hao and his daughter.
He said, "Oh, you’re here, take a seat. Is the injury okay?"
Chen Hao sat down with Pomelo on the beach chair, nodded, and smiled at Su Mo: "It’s fine, we had the wound treated at the hospital, and the examination results were good."
"We left in a rush yesterday and didn’t have time to properly thank you. I thought you might still be on the beach today, so I brought Pomelo over. Pomelo, quickly thank your brother."
Pomelo stood up and bowed to Su Mo, "Thank you, brother."
"Haha, it’s a small matter, no need to thank me." Su Mo looked at Pomelo, and a hint of melancholy rose in his heart.
This little girl reminded him of Nannan from the Xinghai Cinema hostage incident.
Their ages were about the same; they both had chubby little faces, big eyes, and cute bun hairstyles.
Actually, when he had just crossed over, Su Mo carried a rather strong "player mindset," unconsciously treating the people around him like NPCs controlled by a program, feeling a sense of lightness.
But after living here for a long time and completely integrating into this world, everything became real.
If there’s a regret Su Mo has had over time, it’s that he couldn’t timely address the changes in the world’s timeline and fully prevent the tragedy at the Xinghai Cinema.
Although he managed to turn the situation around, break the original plot, and save almost all the children.
Yet, that little girl named Nannan’s life remains forever frozen in a blossoming age.
Su Mo isn’t one to impose great responsibilities on himself unnecessarily; this regret isn’t related to his identity or stance.
It’s just that any normal person, seeing an innocent child tragically die before them, wouldn’t be left indifferent, and the same goes for Su Mo.
Now, seeing Pomelo and recalling past events, Su Mo couldn’t help but feel a bit wistful.
As Su Mo was lost in thought, he suddenly heard Chen Hao whispering: "Pomelo, quickly give that to your brother."
Pomelo handed over a beautifully crafted small gift box from behind her back, saying sweetly, "Brother, this is a gift for you."
Upon hearing this, Su Mo snapped back to reality: "Huh? Why bring a gift, there’s no need to be so formal?"
Chen Hao laughed simply: "Gratitude should be repaid."
Pomelo took out another small gift box and handed it to Shangguan Li with a smile: "Sister, this is for you."
Shangguan Li was taken aback: "Ah? My share too?"
Pomelo obediently said: "Mm~ Thanks to sister yesterday too!"
Su Mo and Shangguan Li weren’t ones for unnecessary formalities.
Since they insisted on giving, they decided to accept it.
However, when both of them opened their gift boxes, they were both stunned.
What was given to Su Mo was a men’s wristwatch, while what Shangguan Li received was a lady’s necklace.
