783: Did I travel through time?
After reading the examination report, Li Ming found it completely unacceptable.
"Doctor, this report can't be wrong, can it? Cough, cough, cough..."
Coughing up blood!
The doctor said solemnly, "The data doesn't lie, and we've tested your blood sample three times, confirming repeatedly that the report is accurate!"
"The onset of the disease in super-infected individuals is extremely rapid and severe. It will be too late to administer treatment once the disease fully manifests!"
"But young man, you don't need to panic."
"You're so young, you can definitely hold on for a few more days!"
Li Ming was half-skeptical.
"Is that so?"
The doctor stated decisively, "A viral load tens of times higher doesn't mean the illness will be tens of times more severe!"
"Please trust our judgment!"
"Alright, thank you, Doctor. Cough, cough, cough..."
Li Ming moved his body around.
He felt no other discomfort besides occasional coughing.
But he still chose to trust the doctor's professional judgment.
...
"Dad, I'm already at Qinglong Hospital..."
"Don't worry, I'm fine, it's very mild. How's Grandpa? You don't know that the ICU is completely sealed off, right?..."
"Then you need to take good care of yourself too!..."
Li Ming hung up the phone.
Guided by a volunteer, he headed to the severe patient ward.
As soon as Li Ming entered the severe patient ward, various sounds of laughter, painful wails, and suppressed cries continuously emanated from the surrounding isolation wards.
"Woo woo woo!..."
"Cough, cough, cough... cough, cough, cough, cough..."
"Oh, my throat hurts so much, I'm so uncomfortable!..."
It was a very strange scene, causing goosebumps to erupt all over Li Ming's body.
"Don't be afraid, brother, you'll get used to it."
The volunteer comforted him.
"You'll be like this in a couple of days too..."
Hearing the volunteer's words, Li Ming almost cried out loud.
Is this how you comfort people?
Walking through the empty corridor, the two arrived in front of a ward.
"You'll stay in Ward 444. I'll go get busy now!"
The volunteer greeted him and then hurried away.
Li Ming looked at the ward number.
His heart sank, this number was really unlucky!
At this moment, he suddenly recalled the doctor's professional judgment.
Suddenly, his right eyelid began to twitch wildly.
Could it be that the doctor was right about him?!
...
The next day.
The attending doctor's professional judgment was indeed correct.
The progression of the disease in super-infected individuals was indeed extremely fast.
Li Ming woke up feeling completely weak, accompanied by severe coughing and occasional hemoptysis.
He could no longer take care of himself.
"Oh dear..."
Because Li Ming's condition transitioned from mild to severe too quickly, Qinglong Hospital paid close attention, and a medical expert team provided him with one-on-one emergency treatment.
A doctor came to observe him every hour in the ward.
...
The third day.
The attending doctor's professional judgment was temporarily correct.
Li Ming completed the seven-day course of the disease in two days.
In addition to coughing, he also had a high fever of over 40 degrees Celsius.
All his physical indicators were several times higher than normal values.
"The onset is too fast, send him to the ICU!"
To prevent Li Ming from being in life-threatening danger, the expert team ultimately decided to send him to the ICU for 24-hour critical care.
...
The fourth day.
The attending doctor's professional judgment was ultimately wrong.
At 3 AM on the fourth day, three hours after Li Ming fell into a high fever coma, the medical expert team held an emergency meeting.
"The patient's name is Li Ming. He is a super-infected individual with a viral load more than fifty times that of a normal person. The disease onset is extremely rapid!"
"His grandfather is also a rare super-infected individual, with a viral load reaching thirty times that of a normal person. He was transferred to the ICU for emergency treatment two days ago, suspected to be related to family genes!"
"Currently, patient Li Ming has been in a coma for an hour, and various physical indicators show large-scale abnormalities. Multiple conventional methods have failed to awaken him. If we delay any longer, his life will be in danger at any time!"
After comprehensive analysis, the expert team finally decided to urgently transport Li Ming, the 104th severe patient nationwide, to the provincial hospital's treatment center via an Avenger Fighter.
...
The fifth day.
Outside the core of the Aerospace Base where Ren Yi was located.
Severe Patient Treatment Center.
A private ward.
Stimulated by the sunlight outside the window, Li Ming struggled to open his eyes.
"I... this is..."
Li Ming raised his head, looking at the unfamiliar surroundings, and immediately felt a panic.
Wasn't he in the ICU of Qinglong Hospital?
Where was this??
Li Ming looked around.
He saw that in the unfamiliar room of about 20 square meters, there was only a single bed, a nightstand, a wardrobe, and a set of table and chairs.
A smell of recent renovation wafted into his nostrils, making Li Ming feel a sharp sting.
"Am I dead?"
"Or... did I transmigrate?"
At this moment, Li Ming suddenly found himself full of energy, completely unlike the state a severe infected person should be in!
The more Li Ming thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong.
Could it be that he really transmigrated?
He muttered to himself, feeling the surging power within his body, and tried to punch with force.
"Holy crap, holy crap, what's going on?!..."
Li Ming punched lightly, and the joints and bones in his body and arms kept making noises, actually emitting a sound like muffled thunder!
"Bones and muscles resonating???"
"What's wrong with me??"
"What happened?!!!"
Li Ming's face was full of disbelief, and he was completely shocked!
Isn't this a realm that only... martial arts grandmasters in novels can reach?
Holy crap!!
Is it real or fake?!
Li Ming couldn't believe any of this, and quickly jumped up from the bed.
He jumped to the floor and clumsily threw punches, sending out bursts of powerful fist winds.
A few minutes later, Li Ming's face was already beaming with extreme excitement.
"Could it be that I transmigrated?!!!"
Sitting back on the bed, Li Ming excitedly began to fantasize.
As a shut-in, he had read so many online wish-fulfillment novels.
He had also fantasized countless times about how great it would be if he were the protagonist in those novels!
And now, heaven has eyes, it's finally Li Ming's turn to be the protagonist!
The more Li Ming thought about it, the more excited he became, and he directly got up and went to the window to gaze at the clear blue sky.
In this life, I, Li Ming, am reborn in another world!
I must activate cheats all the way and crush all villains!
Drive the best cars, live in the biggest mansions, and date celebrity models!
"Li Ming!"
Just as Li Ming was lost in extreme fantasy, someone suddenly opened the door.
Li Ming turned his head and saw a sweet-looking young female nurse walk in.
"Awake?"
Looking at the slender and beautiful female nurse, Li Ming's face lit up with a peculiar brilliance.
"Where are you looking?"
Seeing that Li Ming didn't answer but stared straight at her, the female nurse asked, widening her eyes.
"Let's go, follow me to register."
Li Ming remained motionless.
"What are you standing there for? Many people are waiting to register, don't waste my time!"
The female nurse was a bit impatient.
Li Ming's mouth twisted into a smile.
"Heh heh, foolish and beautiful woman..."
"Foolish and beautiful woman, you're playing with fire."
Li Ming's words carried disdain.
Before the female nurse could react, he turned and walked to the windowsill, turning his back to the female nurse and feigning profundity.
"It's not that easy to be the woman of a man destined to be king!"
The female nurse stared blankly at Li Ming's back for a long time before blurting out, "You little brat, you didn't burn your brain out, did you?!"
Li Ming frowned and turned around.
He leaned against the windowsill, intending to put his hands in his pockets, but found that the blue and white hospital gown he was wearing had no pants pockets.
"Cough, cough... hmm..."
In a moment of awkwardness, Li Ming raised his hand to cover his nose to hide his embarrassment.
"Woman who wants to register with me, what's your name?"
The female nurse subconsciously replied, "Wang... Wang Min."
"What do you usually do for work?"
Work?
Wang Min, in her nurse's uniform, was a bit dumbfounded.
This fat otaku really didn't burn his brain, did he?
This place only treats patients, not mental illnesses!
"No?..."
Li Ming walked straight up to Wang Min and reached out to take the ID card hanging around her neck.
"Junior Nurse..."
"So you really are a nurse. I thought you were playing dress-up temptation with me..."
Finally reacting, Wang Min quickly reached out and snatched back her ID.
"Li Ming, behave yourself, no touching!"
"Also, who wants to register with you!"
"I'm telling you to come with me to register, not... Oh, I'm almost getting confused by you..."
Wang Min's panic carried a hint of cuteness.
Seeing this, Li Ming gave a wicked smile and said, "A cliché trick, but... I like it."
"Let's go, my first woman!"
Li Ming strode confidently towards the door, not forgetting to put his arm around Wang Min's waist.
"Where's the Civil Affairs Bureau? You lead the way."
"I understand the plot of marriage first, then love. I'll try to fall in love with you, but during this process, you need to be more proactive..."
As Li Ming spoke, he felt the sensation on his hand.
Having never even touched a woman's hand since he was little, he thought to himself, being a protagonist in a wish-fulfillment novel is really great!
Before Li Ming could enjoy it for a few more seconds, a scream suddenly came.
"Ah!!!!-----"
"Pervert!!"
Accompanying the scream, Li Ming felt himself being lifted into the air.
"Bang!!"
Li Ming slammed into the ceiling.
"Thud..."
Another muffled sound.
Li Ming fell heavily, landing headfirst.
"You..."
Li Ming lay on the ground, his eyes rolling back, and he immediately passed out.
...
After an unknown amount of time, an argument woke Li Ming.
"It wasn't intentional! It was mainly because he was getting handsy!..."
"Wang Min! Do you even realize how dangerous your actions were?! If he hadn't just taken Chief Engineer Ren's secret traditional Chinese medicine formula, you'd be a murderer right now!!"
"Alright... Head Nurse, I didn't know my own strength. I'll be gentler next time..."
"You want a next time? If it weren't for the current shortage of staff at the treatment center, I'd have already packed your bags and sent you home! This is even more dangerous than a major medical accident!..."
"I... I, boo hoo hoo..."
"..."
