Chapter 103: Heading to the Disaster Area for Rescue

By the time they left the police station, it had already been half an hour.

In the past, Luo Qianyun never imagined that one day she would need to use this modern version of “blood recognition.”

Now, her blood sample had been collected and would soon be sent to the laboratory for analysis.

“I thought that once the blood was drawn, it could be directly matched in the database, but I didn’t expect it to take at least two to three days,” Song Yunjing said beside her.

She realized she knew little about the process and thought it would be simple, but it turned out to be quite complicated.

“However, compared to the parents who have been searching for their child for decades, two or three days is considered short,” Song Ningyu said.

From here on, Luo Qianyun could just wait at home. No matter the result, someone would call her.

Thinking of this, Luo Qianyun felt at ease and immediately thanked the two, “Yunjing, Ningyu, thank you for accompanying me today.”

Upon hearing this, Song Yunjing linked her arm with hers. “Are you being polite with us? This is a major event in your life, of course we should be with you.”

Song Ningyu also smiled. “When the family had trouble back then, you stayed with Yunjing day and night, allowing me to focus without worries. Later, you stayed with us through the hardest times. We never stood on ceremony with you, so don’t be formal with us now.”

“Exactly. My brother said that if you hadn’t been there with me, he would have been overwhelmed just taking care of me, let alone dealing with company matters,” Song Yunjing added.

But Luo Qianyun also understood that although she helped them in the past, they had helped her even more later on.

In any case, the biggest issue in her heart was now resolved.

It hadn’t even been long since they left for the hospital, when the rain started pouring down heavily.

By the time they returned to the hospital, the emergency building was busier than when they had left.

When they asked, they learned that a heavy rainstorm had caused a serious car accident at an intersection, with several injured people rushed to the hospital for treatment.

Hearing this, Luo Qianyun quickly changed clothes…

She was busy non-stop until after 8 PM, and only then did she find time to have a quick dinner.

Eating the lunch box that the nurse had ordered for her, Luo Qianyun, just out of the operating room, felt a bit tired. Fortunately, though exhausted, she was really hungry, so the food tasted a bit better than usual.

When the phone rang, Luo Qianyun answered it and put it on speaker.

“Were you busy just now?” Lu Yunzheng’s voice came from the other end of the line.

While eating, Luo Qianyun said, “There was a car accident at the intersection today, several patients came in for rescue, and I just came out of the operating room.”

Lu Yunzheng seemed puzzled. “Are you on a night shift today?”

Luo Qianyun checked the time—it was already after 8 PM—and she understood why he might think she was on a night shift.

“No, it’s still a day shift. I just started my shift not long ago. The instructor said I’ll be on day shifts for the first two months, and then night shifts next month,” she explained.

She was relatively lucky since emergency shifts were different from other departments, with night shifts being more frequent.

Feeling guilty for not being able to be with Luo Qianyun, Lu Yunzheng reminded her, “Make sure you stay safe when you drive back alone.”

“Don’t worry, I’ll drive slowly,” Luo Qianyun reassured him.

“If something happens, don’t rush to get out of the car. Call me, and I’ll have someone handle it,” Lu Yunzheng reminded again.

“I know, I’m not that silly,” Luo Qianyun muttered softly.

To ease Lu Yunzheng’s worries, Luo Qianyun changed the subject and told him about going to the police station for blood collection earlier that day.

They chatted for a while until Luo Qianyun finished her meal.

Since it was getting late, Lu Yunzheng urged her to head home quickly.

The next two days, Luo Qianyun was extremely busy. After the typhoon made landfall, it caused havoc, not only in A City but also in several surrounding cities.

Compared to other places, A City’s situation was still considered mild.

The worst-hit area was a small county in W City. Due to its low-lying terrain and proximity to the coast, every time a typhoon came, the entire town had to evacuate.

This year, the situation was even more severe, with the surrounding areas being entirely overwhelmed.

As the disaster-stricken areas suffered, rescue teams and supplies from various places rushed in.

With the First Medical Center leading the charge, emergency medical teams from the Third Medical Center also set off for reinforcement.

Luo Qianyun was among the emergency medical team heading to the disaster-stricken front lines.

On the bus heading to the disaster area, Luo Qianyun and other medical staff from different hospitals sat in their seats, resting up. Everyone knew that once they reached the disaster area, they would be fighting a long and grueling battle.

Occasionally, the sound of people talking to their families could be heard in the bus. Luo Qianyun also sent Lu Yunzheng a message about her deployment to the disaster area.

However, he didn’t respond, and Luo Qianyun guessed that he might also have been sent somewhere and, like her, couldn’t contact her during rest times.

Luo Qianyun: Be safe.

After replying to messages in her social circle, Luo Qianyun put her phone away and tried to rest.

Upon boarding, Luo Qianyun was assigned to the bus heading to the disaster area. The bus was filled with staff from different hospitals, with doctors from various departments ensuring all specialties were covered.

As a result, there weren’t many familiar faces on the bus, except for Qian Meimei and another nurse named Lin Xiaowan, who, years ago, had been the one Luo Qianyun helped onto an ambulance.

Based on the travel time, they wouldn’t arrive at the disaster area until evening. During mealtime, the bus didn’t stop, and everyone took out bread and water to make do.

While eating bread, Qian Meimei swapped seats and sat next to Luo Qianyun. “Doctor Luo, I’m guessing you’ve never been involved in disaster area rescue, right?”

“I once went to a earthquake disaster area with my instructor, but I wasn’t at the front lines,” Luo Qianyun replied.

“Well, you’ve really hit the jackpot. The rescue efforts at the disaster-stricken front lines are much more intense, and a typhoon disaster is different from an earthquake disaster,” Qian Meimei said.

“No matter how different, I’ll adapt. Only by adapting can I save more people,” Luo Qianyun said.

At this moment, someone behind her called out, “Are you Luo Qianyun?”

Luo Qianyun turned around and saw a woman in her early thirties. “Yes, I am.”

“We’re going to a disaster area. You look young, will you be able to handle it? Don’t drag us down,” Xu Jia questioned with some doubt.

Luo Qianyun smiled calmly at the skepticism, “I believe I’ll be fine.”

But Xu Jia still seemed unconvinced. “I suggest you not be too blindly confident.”

“I once performed 13 surgeries in 48 hours without stopping, with less than half an hour of rest,” Luo Qianyun said.

“Impossible?” Xu Jia frowned instinctively. “Was that in a disaster area?”

Even in a disaster area, the intensity seemed too exaggerated, and her age was still a concern.

Luo Qianyun only smiled and said nothing more. “I can assure you that I’m telling the truth.”

As for the location, it wasn’t a disaster area… it was a battlefield.

But that was Luo Qianyun’s secret, known only to her instructor.
