Chapter 1646: State a Reason
"Who exactly is it that framed Mr. Chen?" someone in the crowd finally spoke up in anger.
"It is a certain expert you all worship, Yamamoto Masao," Chuan Naizi named him directly.
"Impossible, how could it be Professor Yamamoto?"
"Ah, he is a pillar of the nation, a recipient of the Warrior Medal personally bestowed by the Emperor. Why would it be him? I don't believe it."
"No, I don't believe it. Give us a reason—why would he frame Mr. Chen?"
"Jealousy, differences in political views," Chuan Naizi said sternly. "Because he has been placed on too high a pedestal; if this matter cannot be resolved, his reputation will be severely affected."
"Moreover, that Mr. Qingtian behind him and my father were never in the same faction. Because of these reasons, he has even disregarded the lives of our citizens. Can a person like that still be considered human?"
"You say this, but do you have proof? You cannot just say these things were done by Mr. Yamamoto based on these videos alone," someone retorted. "Besides, none of my colleagues or friends around me are infected right now. Are you fear-mongering?"
Just at this moment, a man in the crowd suddenly collapsed to the ground. He convulsed violently, and fresh blood began to flow from his seven orifices.
"An infected person, everyone back away!" Chen Yu was also startled; he had not expected that someone in the crowd was actually infected.
The scene immediately descended into chaos. Everyone retreated one after another, and those who had just been questioning him screamed and scattered in flight.
"Control the scene!" Chen Yu shouted.
A group of Huaxia people rushed over and worked with the Detectives to bring the scene under control.
"Tell your people to back away; they will get infected. We people of Chinatown take traditional medicine every day and have antibodies, so we won't be infected," Chen Yu walked forward.
"Quickly, back away," Chuan Naizi said hurriedly.
Chen Yu walked up and saw that this patient was convulsing non-stop; he was already in the onset stage. Furthermore, the patient was slightly older and had underlying conditions, so if not treated in time, he would likely die directly within three hours.
"Didn't you question whether I had the ability to treat patients? This patient is one of your own. He has underlying conditions, and for someone with this constitution, the virus is fatal."
Chen Yu pointed at the patient and said, "First, choose to trust me, and I will save his life. Second, carry him away, and I will continue to watch your affairs from the sidelines."
"Look, his eyes are already bloodshot; these are typical symptoms of infection."
"Yes, there's no mistake. I specifically read the guide on the various stages of viral infection."
"Mr. Chen, then please help him," these people were finally unwilling, and they lowered their noble heads.
"Very well, watch closely," Chen Yu glanced at these people coldly. He did not mock them for their ignorance; in his view, these people were simply stupid.
Acupuncture and medication—in half an hour, under the eyes of tens of thousands of netizens in the livestream, this person who had collapsed on the ground recovered under Chen Yu's treatment.
That's right, he had recovered. The bloodshot appearance in his eyes had vanished, and his mental state had returned to that of a normal person.
"Go back and rest more, drink plenty of hot water, and as for this traditional medicine, find a way to get it yourself," Chen Yu wrote down the prescription for him and then paid him no more mind.
Just at this moment, the livestream was forcibly interrupted. It was clear that the Fusang authorities had noticed the news here and directly forced the stream to cut off.
"The livestream was forcibly interrupted; this already proves that the problem indeed exists," Chuan Naizi said. "Wake up, friends. This concerns our country and our future. Mr. Chen can solve this matter now, yet that Yamamoto is suppressing Mr. Chen."
"Yes, we must resist. We are not ignorant masses, but the higher-ups are currently treating us like fools to be deceived."
"Why would they do this? Are our lives just a means for their power games?"
"No, we must resist. We must know the truth. We must clear Mr. Chen's name."
The reaction at the scene was extremely intense, and at the same time, public opinion online had begun to reverse. One could tell some people were feeling guilty just from the fact that they forcibly cut the stream.
But it was useless; tens of thousands of netizens had already seen the truth of the matter through the livestream, and public opinion had begun to develop in an uncontrollable direction.
"Thank you, for being able to withstand such great pressure to clear my name," Chen Yu couldn't help but turn his head to look at Chuan Naizi.
He truly admired this woman; in order to clear his name, she was actually willing to do anything.
"This was something we owed you in the first place. I now represent those who did not know the truth and apologize to you," Chuan Naizi bowed slightly. "Mr. Chen, many people have already died, and this number is still increasing, so I beg you, please help me."
"Not for the time being, because Yamamoto Masao has not yet bowed his head, and the truth has not been made public," Chen Yu shook his head and said. "What I have said cannot just be let go like this."
"But..." Chuan Naizi said somewhat powerlessly, "those are human lives."
"Your own people don't care about the lives of your countrymen, so is there any need for me, an outsider, to be compassionate?" Chen Yu glanced at Chuan Naizi and said, "If I step in to solve this matter, won't he think that I, Chen Yu, am easy to manipulate?"
"Chen Yu, I have already done my best," Chuan Naizi's expression was somewhat bitter.
"I just saved a person, didn't I?" Chen Yu pointed to the crowd that had already dispersed. "If I hadn't acted just now, do you think that person could have survived?"
"Yes, then I thank you. If you think it through, please contact me at any time," Chuan Naizi looked at Chen Yu earnestly, then left the place with her subordinates.
After Chuan Naizi left, Chen Yu received an anonymous call; the person on the other end was Yamamoto Masao.
"Chen Yu, let's meet and talk," Yamamoto Masao's tone sounded somewhat helpless.
Originally, he did not want to bow his head, but the current situation was extremely unfavorable to him; even if he didn't want to bow his head, he had no choice.
"I have no interest in meeting you," Chen Yu rejected him directly. He said indifferently, "What kind of person do you take me for? Do you think you can see me whenever you want?"
"Chen Yu..." Yamamoto Masao was furious. "The development of the situation is now beyond control. If it is not managed, the virus will spread, and by then, your Huaxia will also be affected."
"I have ways to stop the spread and treat the infected; it's nothing more than consuming some manpower and resources," Chen Yu sneered. "So why should I listen to you now?"
"Consider it me begging you, alright?" Yamamoto Masao was silent for a moment, and finally, he bowed his head.
"Heh, is this the attitude you have when begging someone? I feel your tone seems rather unwilling," Chen Yu smiled slightly. "I don't see your sincerity, so this doesn't count."
