Free Web NovelChapter 473: Chapter 350: Strange!
Drugs... What is poison?
This is something that can completely destroy a person from inside to outside. If it spreads in a country, it can even corrode the nation unbearably!
Back then, Eastern Country suffered from this. They immediately launched a retaliatory strike against it, and major drug dealers worldwide dared not operate there, except for those in the mainland who preferred money over life.
Right now, Lv Xiong’s sudden incident is less about mental illness and more about...
Drug withdrawal reactions!
This is not the so-called withdrawal reaction from returning from Iceland, but a physiological ’instinct’ being obstructed.
To give an example.
Can you quit eating or drinking water?
No, and once you have been using drugs for a long time, it becomes a necessary choice for your body just like eating and drinking, making detoxification very painful, even fatal!
Without a doubt, Lv Xiong’s behavior is exactly the same as this reaction!
"I just knew something was off, his mental state was clearly not much different from a normal person, how could he have serious mental illness..."
"It’s clear he was using drugs!!!"
Inside the hospital.
When everyone and the police officers watching them arrived at the hospital, Lv Xiong had already been rushed to the emergency room.
Seeing the red light on above, Director Yang’s face was very unsightly.
He was simply out for a consultation.
How did it turn into him being monitored by the police twenty-four hours a day!?
Xu Liang felt similarly, but his expression was only heavy, not unsightly.
"If Lv Xiong was really using drugs, then you..."
Yang Ruoxi, standing by his side, showed a worried expression, timid and a bit afraid.
She didn’t finish her sentence.
But Xu Liang understood her meaning.
If Lv Xiong really touched that stuff, then... Xu Liang’s reputation would be ruined.
Defending an addict... and one who shot a person dead, successful or not, society would never be short of voices condemning him!
However....
"No rush, let’s see what the hospital diagnosis is first."
Xu Liang repeated once more, then shut his mouth and said nothing more, while Yang Ruoxi and Su Yu seemed even more worried than him.
Everyone sat at the door of the operating room, as the time ticked by, second by second.
Before long....
"Ding~!"
The green light in the operating room lit up, awakening everyone.
The next second, the door to the operating room opened, and Lv Xiong was wheeled out by everyone on a stretcher.
A properly dressed doctor came out, glanced around, and loudly inquired:
"Who is the patient’s family?"
Upon hearing this, the detention center chief and Xu Liang quickly stepped forward.
"The patient has no family, I am his attorney, entrusted fully to handle his affairs, if there’s anything, just discuss it with me."
Xu Liang took out his lawyer’s license to explain, and the captain in police uniform didn’t need to explain, as the uniform was the best proof.
"How is the patient now?"
The captain asked anxiously: "He was fine in the morning, how did this suddenly happen in the afternoon!?"
The doctor didn’t follow protocol but frowned and said:
"I don’t know."
Don’t know... the doctor doesn’t know?
The captain was stunned, and the next second, he heard the doctor continue:
"The patient’s symptoms resemble a sudden illness but during rescue, no cerebrovascular, cardiovascular, nervous system, endocrine, or infectious diseases were found."
"In fact... we barely performed any tests on him."
"Upon entering the emergency room for rescue, the doctors administered the anesthetic ’Dexmedetomidine’, and within just three minutes after injection, all the patient’s reactions disappeared."
"Everything stabilized, be it heartbeat or breathing..."
"The whole body showed no signs of sickness, I even thought of suggesting transferring the patient to the psychiatric department for a check-up..."
Upon hearing.
Yang Xin, on the side, stepped forward and spoke solemnly:
"His conscious awareness is fine, it might be subconscious influence, but theoretically, Lv Xiong shouldn’t be experiencing this."
During Lv Xiong’s episode, he dug several pieces of meat out with his nails, even in such a situation, the subconscious should have cleared up!
The doctor turned and looked at him, slightly stunned upon seeing the white coat, and asked suspiciously:
"What is your name?"
"Hanhai Mental Hospital, Director of Psychiatry Yang Xin." Director Yang said.
Yang Xin...
The doctor became solemn, "I see, Director Yang, my apologies."
The captain took the opportunity to inquire once more.
"If it’s not a mental illness... what’s the situation?"
The doctor pondered for a while and replied:
"I don’t know, but next the hospital will proceed with three aspects."
Which means routine checks, such as CBC and ECG; medical history investigation; urine tests.
Xu Liang nodded, "About how long until they’re completed?"
The doctor thought for a moment, replied: "Very soon, in about ten hours, we should have results by tomorrow noon."
It should, by rights, be faster.
But the hospital is closing, and the patient’s condition does not warrant overtime, so results can only be ready by tomorrow lunchtime.
Xu Liang fell into contemplation.
After a long time of thinking, he finally nodded and said:
"Okay, I understand."
The doctor confirmed with the captain again, and once assured he had no doubts, he nodded then left.
The personnel from the detention center didn’t make things hard for Xu Liang.
After all, a person’s name, a tree’s shadow, based solely on reputation, Xu Liang wouldn’t do anything like poisoning, especially since Lv Xiong is his client, it’s even more impossible.
Therefore, the short-term surveillance of him was lifted.
Once lifted, Director Yang instantly cursed as he walked out, going back to the hospital to clock out.
