Chapter 1971: Chapter 1973: People Are Divided Into Different Classes
Speaking of rescuing Lu Feiyun, we have to start from two days ago. That day, we received a communication message saying that a war had broken out in the inland area. Some supplies on the way were bombed, and barricades were set up on some essential routes, so it’s estimated that the base’s resources will be in short supply because transportation isn’t possible.
That’s one thing, but the key issue is the medication. It’s precisely the mid-stage of bacterial warfare treatment. We were waiting for it to be delivered, but now the roads are blocked. How can it be transported? What about the medicine?
And due to the war, people at the base are on edge. At that time, indigenous people came again in large numbers, organized, and bombed a good part of the base. Lu Feiyun, the chief attending doctor, was kidnapped, and a lot of drugs and food were seized.
"Actually, these indigenous people are self-sufficient and never used to clash with the soldiers. It’s due to the widespread bacterial warfare that some of them got infected, buried the bodies recklessly, leading to more infection, and more children dying. It’s no wonder under the threat of death, everyone wants to live. They’re the same, which is why they attacked the base, snatched doctors!" Lu Feiyun stayed in that native hideout for two days, and roughly understood why these indigenous people resorted to war and chaos.
"The weight of life, who doesn’t want to live?" Qi Taiguo’s eyes were somewhat vacant and he said, "They didn’t mistreat you, did they?"
"No, they didn’t. Their reason for kidnapping people is simply to seek treatment. I’m the only doctor they took; they wouldn’t dare harm me!" Lu Feiyun chuckled, a hint of sadness in her eyes, and said, "It’s a pity, I can’t speak their language, talking past each other. Actually, getting treatment at the base might have been better for them."
"That’s unlikely, the two have always been separate worlds. Asking them to collaborate would probably be difficult." Qi Taiguo rubbed his hands, feeling a bit sleepy and physically exhausted, having gone through a battle and escape.
"But we’re all human. Those children are just children." Lu Feiyun said, "Our principles are to treat everyone equally under the threat of disease, regardless of whether they’re indigenous or ordinary folks, rich or poor. As long as it’s a life, it’s the same."
Qi Taiguo looked at her and said, "In a doctor’s eyes, probably. But actually, in this world, people are distinguished by their social classes."
Otherwise, why would he work so hard? Isn’t it because he doesn’t want to remain in that bullied and ignored class?
"You’re right. It’s funny; I once heard of two families fighting for a kidney transplant, the wealthy saying the poor don’t deserve to live, that they should make way for them. They’re all human, how can there be such stratification?" Lu Feiyun hugged her knees, watching an ant crawling on a twig at her toes, saying, "Precisely because of this stratification I’ve seen, I prefer no borders, prefer participating in peacekeeping or United Nations’ rescue missions. Because there, there’s no need to see people ranked, see this world’s filth..."
As Lu Feiyun spoke, hearing no response, she turned her head to find Qi Taiguo sleeping with his head tilted, lightly snoring.
She pressed her lips together and said, "Sleep! It’s good if you can sleep!" She lightly tugged at his clothes, glanced at his arm, and couldn’t help frowning, hoping nothing goes wrong, otherwise it would be troublesome!
