Stay away from beasts in the world of Siheyuan

"How about asking someone from the hospital to come and draw some blood, and then take it back to test whether there is any toxin?" Old Zhang saw that Director Guo was reluctant, so he made a compromise suggestion.

"Well...then I'll contact the military hospital." Guo Chang glanced at Xu Changping and said through gritted teeth.

Although he didn't know why Mr. Zhang disliked Xu Changping, Guo Chang knew that he couldn't put them together. Otherwise, if something went wrong on either side, he wouldn't be able to bear the consequences.

Thinking of this, Minister Guo winked at Secretary Sun who was standing at the door and said, "Xiao Sun, let Xiao Zhang take you to the hospital to ask for a doctor for me."

As Secretary Sun left, the tense atmosphere in the room eased. Minister Guo quickly said, "Let's go downstairs and wait. Let my daughter have a good rest."

Before they had to wait long, Secretary Sun came in with a nurse from the military hospital.

After she finished drawing blood, Zhang also said goodbye: "Minister Guo, I didn't help you much this time. I still have things to deal with here, so I'll leave first."

Mr. Zhang thought he had said all the words of advice he could. If Minister Guo still wanted the so-called Doctor Xu to treat his daughter, there was nothing he could do. After all, good words could not persuade a damned ghost.

When Minister Guo heard what Mr. Zhang said, he quickly stood up and said, "Your coming here is a great help. I know you are busy with work, so I will send you out right away."

Minister Guo sent the person to the car waiting at the door. After watching the car leave, he turned around and went back to his home.

Looking at Xu Changping sitting on the sofa, Minister Guo said a little embarrassedly: "Xiao Xu, don't worry. I know your medical skills. I came to Zhang Laolai today for the medicinal material of 'Blood Lotus'. Yesterday, my people searched all over the city and didn't find anything."

Xu Changping had expected Minister Guo to return empty-handed. He stood up and said to Minister Guo, "I don't mind if Mr. Zhang comes to see Comrade Guo Baihui. It would be even better if the other party has a better treatment plan."

"It's a pity that he didn't. Not only did he not figure out the reason, he had never even heard of the medicinal herb Blood Lotus." Minister Guo sat down on the sofa somewhat disappointed, rubbing his forehead and said.

Seeing his expression, Xu Changping tried to hold back but couldn't help but said, "Minister Guo, I think Comrade Guo Baihui's condition is not good. We may not be able to wait until you find the 'Blood Lotus'."

"What!" Minister Guo immediately raised his head and looked at Xu Changping, and said anxiously: "Didn't you say before that you can hold on for a few more days?"

Xu Changping said helplessly: "It may be because of the change of location. I just found that her condition is more serious than before."

Guo Baihui was transferred from the scenic Suzhou Hospital ward to a large courtyard room with only a small window. This difference is not a problem for ordinary people, but for people with mental problems, the difference is huge.

Minister Guo understood what Xu Changping meant, but he still asked hesitantly: "Are you going to use another method to treat her illness? Will Xiaohui be in great pain?"

Xu Changping heard the hesitation in Minister Guo's words, and he continued: "There are some, but this is not the most important thing. What is important is time."

Minister Guo was stunned for a moment, then he reacted and asked, "Time? Does it mean that it will take a long time for Xiao Hui to get better?

"That's right. According to my estimation, it will take about a year." Xu Changping looked at Minister Guo solemnly and spoke slowly. His voice seemed to carry a great weight.

After hearing this, Minister Guo remained silent and just stared at the ground quietly, as if trying to find a ray of hope through the cold cement.

However, the reality stood before him like an insurmountable wall, making him feel extremely heavy and depressed.

After a long while, he nodded slowly and firmly, as if he had finally made up his mind, and said in a deep voice: "Treat it, then let's treat it!"

He knew very well that what Xu Changping said was true. Although he was filled with worry and fear, he understood that he must not delay his daughter's treatment because of his own selfishness.

"In that case, let's not delay any further and start preparing the tools you'll need. I'll also go back home and get some important items." As he spoke, he reached into the backpack behind him and took out a list that had already been written, and handed it to Minister Guo.

Seeing that Xu Changping was about to leave, Minister Guo quickly shouted, "Wait, I'll arrange for Xiao Zhang to drive you back to get your things, so it will be faster."

Xu Changping smiled slightly when he heard this, and gently waved his hand to refuse: "No, I came here by bike today, you can ask him to prepare the things he needs."

After that, he said no more, turned around and walked out the door.

Just as Xu Changping stepped out of the Guo family's gate, a young man happened to walk towards him. He walked straight into the Guo family's house with an upright posture and vigorous steps.

This young man was none other than Li Baiyang, the capable officer who was sent out on the orders of Minister Guo to investigate the whereabouts of the man surnamed Wang.

After Li Baiyang left last night, he immediately launched an active investigation into the man surnamed Wang through various channels, and finally gathered all the clues together this morning.

Li Baiyang discovered that this man had connections with Minister Guo’s subordinate units, and that he had indeed visited Minister Guo many times last year. However, he did not know who helped him deliberately erase the name he left on the entry and exit registration form at the door.

After Li Baiyang confirmed the results of the investigation, he immediately rushed to Guo's house and reported the information to Minister Guo.

In the study, after listening to Li Baiyang's words, Minister Guo frowned and looked solemn.

He realized that this matter might be much more complicated than he thought, and immediately said to Li Boyang with a serious face: "Xiao Yang, you continue to investigate. You must find out the background and purpose of this man. If necessary, you can contact the people above."

Li Baiyang also nodded seriously. He knew the importance of this matter.

After Li Baiyang left, Minister Guo came out of the study and handed the list that Xu Changping had just handed to him to Xiao Zhang. He also handed over a stack of banknotes and said, "Go and buy the things listed above."

He just took a quick glance at the items on the list. Apart from a large wooden tub for bathing, the rest were just some small miscellaneous items that could be easily purchased with a ticket.

Xiao Zhang took the list and the money ticket and said to Minister Guo, "Minister, I'll do it right away." After that, he turned around and left Guo's house quickly.
