Hello, Mr. Major General Chapter 1439 - Serious Consequences

Chapter 1439: Serious Consequences

Huo Shaoheng had spoken so decisively that there was no doubt that President Chen and General Xiao had been convinced by him.
After recovering from her shock, confusion, and grief, President Chen was very ashamed of her actions.
She quickly apologized to Huo Shaoheng. “Major General Huo, I was too presumptuous. I was confused for a moment. I didn’t believe it at first, but when I went to the ICU and saw Xiao Ye in that state, I couldn’t control myself.”
“It’s okay, you weren’t wrong.” Huo Shaoheng comforted President Chen gently. “The ones who were wrong were those who took advantage of people’s plight and played with the hearts of others in order to sow discord. It’s good that you’ve thought it through.”
President Chen’s tears flowed down again. “Major General Huo, Xiao Ye has suffered such a serious injury this time and is unable to recover. When her condition stabilizes, I think that she’ll change jobs.”
“This matter will be decided after Colonel Xiao recovers from her injuries.” Huo Shaoheng did not agree to it, but he did not refuse either. “Both of you, don’t be too sad. Take good care of your health. Colonel Xiao is still young. Even if she transfers to another job in the future, she still has a bright future ahead of her.”
Huo Shaoheng’s words provided General Xiao and President Chen with a new perspective.
After pondering over it, it didn’t sound too bad.
In short, their daughter’s life wasn’t in danger, and she wasn’t crippled either. She just couldn’t rush to the front line like a man and partake in those dangerous missions anymore.
Her mind turned around, and her mood improved as well.
Maybe this was a blessing in disguise?
The two of them thought it through and didn’t insist anymore. They supported each other and left.
When they reached the door, Chen Lie poked his head out from behind Huo Shaoheng abruptly. He said, “Auntie, don’t be too sad. You don’t have to trust others, but you have to trust me, Chen Lie. You know my abilities. Maybe I can help Xiao Ye recover. This has happened before in the history of medicine.”
“Child, you only know how to make Auntie happy.” President Chen turned around and shook her head at Chen Lie with a bitter smile.
After President Chen and General Xiao left, Huo Shaoheng sat on the sofa in Chen Lie’s office. He took out his phone and started to search for the phone number that had sent President Chen that text message.
This was a very normal-looking and very ordinary phone number. From the first few digits, it was likely a phone number originating from C City.
After searching all the way, he discovered that this phone number belonged to a small car repair shop in C City’s urban-rural fringe.
Huo Shaoheng immediately ordered the special operations forces of C City to rush to the repair shop overnight. However, they found nothing.
The repair shop had been empty for half a year, and their phone had been shut down due to unpaid bills.
Huo Shaoheng saw the message and immediately understood that someone had hacked the telecommunications system and used the phone number of the repair shop to send a text message.
As for who sent it, it was difficult to find out.
In the vast sea of people, it was possible that there were billions of people around the world. Could they find out?
He put his phone back and got up to leave.
As Huo Shaoheng investigated the phone number that sent the text message, Chen Lie remained silent the whole time. When he realized that Huo Shaoheng was about to leave, he said, “Huo Shao, are you a gentleman?”
Huo Shaoheng looked down at him. “Is this the first day you’ve met me?”
Chen Lie shrugged resentfully. “I knew you weren’t a gentleman…”
Huo Shaoheng ignored him and continued walking towards the door.
Chen lie called out to him again. “Huo Shao, can’t we talk?”
Huo Shaoheng stopped in his tracks at the door, his hands in his trouser pockets. He said calmly, “What’s there to talk about? Do your best to save Xiao Ye. How much she recovers will depend on her luck.”
Chen Lie gritted his teeth, slammed the table, and rushed out from behind the desk. He mustered up his courage and said to Huo Shaoheng, “Do you know what I’m talking about?! If you pretend not to know, I’ll take it as your acquiescence!”
Huo Shaoheng didn’t turn his head, but he didn’t say anything either.
Chen Lie’s office was silent for a moment.
Outside was the long corridor of the medical building. It was late at night, and there was no one there. There was no one else in the room, but the Resident Advisor’s office.
“Huo Shao, no matter how malicious the person who sent the message is, there’s one thing that’s true. We might really have the resources to help Xiao Ye recover.” Chen Lie hesitated for a moment before speaking up.
He stood up and closed the office door, then turned off the surveillance cameras and lights.
In the darkness, Huo Shaoheng lowered his head silently. He lit a cigarette with a lighter and took a slow puff.
Chen Lie stood beside him and looked at the spark in his hand. His voice became softer. “Huo Shao, think about Xiao Ye… she’s only 29 years old and has worked for the special operations forces for 10 years… you can save her…”
Huo Shaoheng was expressionless and said indifferently, “I’m not the one who can save her.”
“I know, it’s Nianzhi.” Chen Lie put his hands into his pockets and stood behind Huo Shaoheng. He said word by word, “I want to beg you to use Nianzhi’s bone marrow sample to save Xiao Ye.”
“I know Nianzhi’s genes have a powerful repair function. I used the gene extracted from her bone marrow to save your mother…”
He finally said it.
Huo Shaoheng held the cigarette in his hand and stopped smoking. He was silent for a long time before saying, “You want to use Nianzhi again to create a medical miracle?”
Chen lie choked and retreated with his neck shrunk. “You know that’s not what I mean! I just want to give it a try. I still have a sample of Nianzhi’s bone marrow here…”
“Then what do you mean?” Huo Shaoheng still did not turn his head. His voice was flat, but there was an indescribable pressure within his tone. Chen Lie took another step back. He was almost out of breath.
“If there’s one, then there will be two. If there’s two, then there will be three. Chen Lie, you know very well that the situation this time will be the same as the one with Ms. Song.”
The last time, it was used to repair the genes of Song Kinning. Xiao Ye, on the other hand, needed to directly repair her limbs.
There was a fundamental difference between the two.
Although they knew that Gu Nianzhi’s self-healing ability was very strong, they were not sure whether this self-healing ability could be passed on to others like genes.
Once it succeeded, Chen Lie and Huo Shaoheng did not dare to imagine what the consequences would be…
Huo Shaoheng’s deep, bell-like voice rang out in the darkness once again, as if he was asking Chen Lie. It also sounded as if he was torturing himself. “If you use Nianzhi to help Xiao Ye recover, then in the future, more people will come to you and ask you to help them recover. What are you going to do?”
Song Jinning’s previous illness was so rare that it occurred in less than one in ten million people.
Therefore, even if they managed to cure Song Jinning, they could still use the concept ‘miracle of medicine’ to cover it up. It was unlikely that they would encounter the same illness that required Chen Lie to repeat the treatment.
However, Xiao Ye’s injury could be encountered by any ordinary person.
The injuries were severe, the bones were broken, the limbs were damaged, and the organs were aging.
If there was a treatment that could help you get rid of the above illnesses and help you recover, would you choose not to do it?
Chen Lie retreated step by step, unable to speak.
“In your heart, has Nianzhi just been a lab rat from the start?” Huo Shaoheng asked lightly, his tone filled with deep fatigue and self-blame.
Chen Lie flushed red, but he was unwilling to be stumped by Huo Shaoheng’s question. He growled, “Of course not! Don’t you know how I’ve treated Nianzhi all these years?”
Huo Shaoheng’s tone softened as he pleaded, “But Xiao Ye is different… she got hurt because of Nianzhi… If Nianzhi was here, she would definitely give up her bone marrow without hesitation!”
“Yes…” Huo Shaoheng was expressionless, like an ice sculpture. “Just because she’s kind and won’t refuse, she can be used as a guinea pig if she’s in trouble. She has to be willing…”
“Why didn’t you ask me? Why didn’t you take my bone marrow? It was my decision to let Xiao Ye protect Nianzhi, it was not Nianzhi’s request. If you think that Nianzhi owes Xiao Ye a favor for protecting her, then I’ll pay you back.”
Chen Lie glared at Huo Shaoheng. “What nonsense are you talking about? If your bone marrow is as effective as Nianzhi’s, of course, I’ll ask you and not her. But your bone marrow is useless…”
“Just because it’s useful, you can use it?” Huo Shaoheng finally turned around and looked at Chen Lie. “Have you really thought about the consequences of doing this?”
If this continued, the secret of Gu Nianzhi’s constitution would soon be revealed to everyone.
When that time came, she would really become a guinea pig.
“So, you want to use Nianzhi’s freedom in exchange for Xiao Ye’s freedom, is that right?”
Huo Shaoheng saw everything clearly, and because he saw it clearly, he was in even more pain.
He suddenly understood the sinister intentions behind each and every one of their moves.
He assumed that they did not kill Xiao Ye because those people had been merciful and did not kill the innocent.
Now he was certain that they did not kill Xiao Ye and had even used text messages to inform Xiao Ye’s parents, because their goal had always been Gu Nianzhi.
In order to expose the secret of her constitution, she would no longer be able to live among them like an ordinary person, even if she was found.
Their goal was probably to completely strip her of her identity as an ordinary person, and strip her of her dignity as an ordinary person.
To completely turn a living person into a guinea pig that could be used as a rare commodity.
The problem was, just like the big black puts dug by the dilemma of the four SUVs, Huo Shaoheng realized that he had no choice but to jump into it.
Chen Lie had made it very clear that he could not watch Xiao Ye lose the chance to be completely cured.
Huo Shaoheng felt that he was no better than Chen Lie, or even worse.
Because he was the lover that Gu Nianzhi had fallen in love with, the person she trusted the most.
But this knife had to be used by him.
He really owed this girl too much…
Huo Shaoheng took a drag on his cigarette and asked calmly, “How many more samples of Nianzhi’s bone marrow do you have?”
Chen lie rubbed his hands, embarrassed. “Actually, there aren’t that many left… and I’m just guessing. I don’t know if it will work on Xiao Ye’s injuries.”
“Will there be none left after this time?” Huo Shaoheng turned to look at him.
Chen Lie nodded. He couldn’t bear to see this happen, so he patted Huo Shaoheng on the shoulder. “There’s only so much left. We need to do some cultivation and experiments. Even if it works, it’ll take at least a year and a half, so don’t think too much about it. I know what to do.”
He scratched his head and continued, “Don’t think too much about it. It might not work. Look at the person who sent the text. He was just testing us. If it really worked, he wouldn’t have said something as ambiguous as ‘special resources’.”
