Chapter 229: You, Worthless
Chapter 229: You, Worthless
Chu Han said nothing and just put his right hand in the pocket and used force to make Wangcai talk.
"Stop!" Wang Cai interrupted him, "I'll tell you. He's telling the truth. A fish bit him, so he's not infected."
Chu Han grinned while looking at the wound. He was feeling sorry for the unlucky nameless man. They almost misunderstood him.
Then Chu Han asked again, "How about Tu Chenglong?"
"He?" Wang Cai sneered, "Although it looks like a knife scratched him, it may be caused by a fingernail. You've seen zombies' fingernails which are as sharp as a knife. Zombies have three ways to infect a human. There's also the possibility of eating zombies meat, but the other party should be really foolish to do that."
"I know two ways. It's through their teeth and fingernails. What's the third way?" Chu Han was perplexed as he didn't know of the third way.
"Certainly toenails!" Wangcai answered but gave no time to Chu Han to react, and it kept going, "That guy, Tu Chenglong is infected, and the virus he is carrying is powerful. He'll turn into a zombie very soon, maybe in less than an hour!"
Listening to the conclusion, Chu Han was slightly shocked since the infected person was Tu Chenglong.
Chu Han was delighted as Wangcai proved very helpful in such a critical moment, even though he had turned it upside down. Wangcai's contribution was enormous!
"I'll cook dinner, full of fish, just for you," Chu Han made promised.
"Really?" Wangcai's face changed faster than turning a book's pages. It knew nothing about shame, "Thank God!"
"So?" Looking at the silent Chu Han, Liang Hongshen sneered, "What have you found? You know more than me? I want to know how much you know! You shouldn't pretend to be more knowledgeable than us, doctors. A professional is different than an amateur. You should save it if you know nothing."
Liang Hongshen words carried an arrogant and unhappy tone. Chu Han had slapped him in the face saying he was arrogant and that he knew more than him. Liang Hongshen could not bear that someone who knew nothing about medicine spouting nonsense. In addition, in his eyes, Chu Han knew was just a troublemaker.
Chu Han looked at Liang Hongshen, and then he said to Zhan Guangyuan and Zhou Chulei, "One of them is infected. We should restrain him before the zombification!"
"Bullsh*t! That's your conclusion? Same as nonsense!" Liang Hongshen was unsatisfied with Chu Han's ignorance. He approached the unknown man and stretched his hand to suppress him, "He is the infected one! We have to get rid of him."
Nobody doubted Liang Hongshen's words. They thought that Tu Chenglong was not infected and there must be something wrong with the strange guy.
The moment that Liang Honngshen stretched out-
Pat!
Chu Han slapped his palm arrogantly and said impatiently, "When did I tell you that he is infected?"
Everyone narrowed their eyes suddenly, including Tu Chenglong. They were shocked.
What, what did it mean?
"Chu Han, what are you talking about?" Wang Shixiong looked at Chu Han in amazement, but he was confused too. He supported Liang Hongshen's opinion as he thought that the one with the bite mark was infected.
Liang Hongshen was furious with Chu Han's action. "Chu Han! You should not be too excessive. Although we boarded your ferry and ate your food, please respect the doctors' opinions in such matters."
"Doctor?" Chu Han frowned and looked at Liang Hongshen, "Let me remind you that it's been three months since the apocalypse's outburst. Your accumulated medical knowledge is useless, and you should start learning from scratch. Even the military's most experienced doctor has no right to say that they're professional and experienced now."
Liang Hongshen glared at him as he could not believe that Chu Han could boast shamelessly.
"And you?" He gave Liang Hongshen no time to react and then he continued, "Whatever you knew has changed. You can't even be considered an assistant, let alone a doctor. It's true that your professional knowledge should be useful one month ago, but I can tell you that it's worthless!"
The words filled with contempt shocked Liang Hongshen. He had been in the professional world for ten years. Although his achievements were not as significant as Wang Shixiong's, he was confident that he could surpass Wang Shixiong by the time he reached his age. However, at this moment, Chu Han said he was worthless!?
Ignoring the shocked Liang Hongshen, Chu Han said to Zhan Guangyuan and Zhou Chunlei, "Tie Tu Chenglong! He is infected."
Tu Chenglong looked at Chu Han in terror, "Am I your enemy? How could you do that to me?"
Ying Xiaoqin protected Tu Chenglong with her entire body and yelled at Chu Han, "You are a devil! What do you want!? You're deliberately ignoring the infected person and want to frame the innocent!"
"You're too excessive!" Liang Hongshen nearly yelled angrily, "Doctor Wang, why should we keep this insane guy?! I think we should throw him off the ferry too!"
Zhan Guangyuan and Zhou Chunlei looked at each other and then walked to Tu Chenglong gloomily. They dragged Ying Xiaoqin out and then tied the Tu Chenglong. Having experienced Hu Pengtian, they preferred to believe in Chu Han since he had broadened their horizons.
"What are you doing?!" Liang Hongshen looked at the two men's actions and yelled. "Are you crazy?! Crazy!"
"You should calm down." Wang Shixiong sighed and then said to Liang Hongshen, "Chu Han asked us to tie him, not throw him out of the ferry. We will keep feeding Tu Chenglong in these few days; but, he may be infected."
Wang Shixiong had a more profound understanding of the sentence, 'When seeing is not believing,' compared with Zhan Guangyuan and Zhou Chunlei. Chu Han had made him feel embarrassed plenty of times with Hu Pengtian's case. Chu Han had proved with facts that civilized time's common knowledge meant nothing in this post-apocalyptic world.
Liang Hongshen was at a loss, "Doctor Wang? Chu Han was not a doctor!"
Wang Shixiong shook his head helplessly, "Brother Liang, this is no longer the world we were familiar with in the past. Common sense and theories should be discarded! Chu Han is right. You are arrogant, and he really knows more than you."
Wang Shixiong's support to Chu Han was like a heavy slap landing on Liang Hongshen's face. The doctor he respected the most, abandoned him and sided with Chu Han.
