Eguchi Kyugen was the first to speak. "Is An Yan really going to stand by and watch Watanabe Isorou lose his life?"
Hen Nianchen countered, "Didn’t Mr. Eguchi Kyugen see that An Yan is currently on the operating table? She’s a doctor, not a divine healer. How do you expect her to manage two places at once?"
"Why can’t she? She could have easily let Yan An handle the pregnant woman and gone to save Watanabe Isorou herself!" Eguchi Kyugen pressed.
Lu Yuan then said, "Has Mr. Eguchi Kyugen never worked on the front lines? Countless patients are waiting for treatnt every day. If doctors could just treat whover they pleased, whenever they pleased, wouldn’t hospitals descend into chaos? One patient must be dealt with before moving on to the next. Surely, Mr. Eguchi Kyugen, you understand that?"
After a brief pause, he continued, "My apologies, I forgot. Your Country R has a smaller population, so perhaps doctors in your hospitals *can* do as they please! But here, that’s truly not how it works!"
Eguchi Kyugen was infuriated all over again. If the citizens of Country R heard such words, they would undoubtedly rain curses upon him.
But this ti, he resolved not to be led by the nose and to stick to his objective. "Are you saying we should just ignore Watanabe Isorou?"
Lu Yuan replied, "Who said anything about ignoring him? If Team An Yan is too occupied, can’t Team R step in? This isn’t the ti to point fingers at An Yan. Instead, we should see how Country R’s representative team responds to this situation."
"Everyone, this competition isn’t an official one. It’s being held only because of the challenge initiated by Country R."
"A challenger would undoubtedly make thorough preparations before arriving. Therefore, I believe Team R can certainly resolve Watanabe Isorou’s situation. It just depends on whether they’re willing to step up."
The more Eguchi Kyugen listened, the more uneasy he felt. "Mr. Lu, aren’t your words a bit careless? Official or not, this is still a competition! Why should Team R have to save the opposing side’s patient?"
Lu Yuan’s voice turned cold. "This is a challenge! And the patient isn’t from the ’opposing side’—he was brought here by Team R!"
Eguchi Kyugen retorted, "Regardless of what it is, we are in a competition, and the two sides are rivals! Team R has no obligation to save Watanabe Isorou!"
"Oh? Hearing you say that, a question suddenly occurs to ," Lu Yuan mused. "Could it be that when Team R brought their patients, they were already prepared for them to die?"
Eguchi Kyugen was speechless.
So infuriating!
He turned to the cara and said, "Is the directorate present? With Editor Lu displaying such strong personal bias, I don’t believe he’s fit to be a comntator! Please remove him!"
Lu Yuan chuckled. "I have personal bias? And you don’t? If soone has to leave, why don’t we leave together?"
Lu Yuan’s fans erupted in the live chat:
"[So satisfying!]"
"[Seeing Editor Lu just makes my day!]"
"[All the pent-up frustration I’ve felt these past few days has cleared up thanks to Editor Lu!]"
"[That’s how it’s done! If sothing bothers you, confront it head-on!]"
"[Directorate, listen up! I’m a VIP mber, and if you dare remove Editor Lu, I’ll stop watching this trash show!]"
"[Sa here.]"
"[Sa here 1!]"
It was unclear if the directorate saw these comnts, but they quickly responded, "Everyone, you are comntators, and comntators are free to express their own opinions. Please, both of you, continue with your respective styles. Keep it up!"
Eguchi Kyugen was bewildered. ’Keep it up’ my foot! We’re comntators, authoritative figures! Why does it feel like the directorate is treating us like performing monkeys? Eguchi Kyugen felt like he was about to have a heart attack. These past few days, he had been constantly berated by Hen Nianchen or insulted by Lu Yuan. The main problem was his Z language skills weren’t up to par, and he couldn’t match their verbal sparring. And the two guests Country R had invited, Johns Nade and Allen Hughes, hadn’t helped him at all. Sotis when he asked them for help, they even pretended not to understand!
It’s infuriating! Absolutely infuriating!
If I had known Country Z would be so shaless as to blatantly invite two of their own, I should have brought an extra person from our side too!
Filled with regret, Eguchi Kyugen silently shut his mouth and sat back down.
Seeing that both sides had cald down, Johns Nade finally spoke, "Actually, I support Editor Lu’s opinion. A competition format like this should never be applied to real patients. For dical practitioners, we have only one adversary: disease itself!"
Allen Hughes nodded and said, "I agree with Mr. Nade! Moreover, I believe Team R also possesses the compassion of healers and wouldn’t stand by and watch Watanabe Isorou die."
Eguchi Kyugen’s face darkened once more. He had just heard Johns refer to Lu Yuan as ’Editor Lu’! At that mont, it suddenly struck him: the editor-in-chief of the Asia division of ’dicine Under Heaven’ was apparently from Country Z, and his na seed to be Lu Yuan!
No wonder Johns had been playing dumb and not helping !
And now, the audience’s line of thinking would surely follow what they said. This ant that if Team R didn’t intervene, they would likely be perceived as intentionally letting him die.
Eguchi Kyugen was itching to rush out and tell Matsumoto Mina to quickly go and save Watanabe Isorou.
Unfortunately, there was an information firewall between the comntators’ live-streaming room and the contestants’ live-streaming rooms. The comntators could see everything happening in the contestants’ rooms, but the contestants could not see into the comntators’ room. Even their own live chat comnts would filter out any content related to the comntators. This completely eliminated any possibility of passing ssages through the live chat comnts.
This is truly maddening!
Unable to do anything, Eguchi Kyugen could only refocus his attention on the large screen, watching helplessly.
Finally, Matsumoto Mina appeared. Wearing a large mask that covered her face, she rushed into Watanabe Isorou’s hospital room with a few of her teammates.
Eguchi Kyugen let out a long sigh of relief and shot Lu Yuan a triumphant, smug glance. His face was alight with triumph!
The curve on the monitor had already flatlined, and the red light on the instrunt was flashing; Watanabe Isorou had gone into shock.
"Should we prepare the defibrillator?" an assistant asked.
Matsumoto Mina shook her head. "No need. Let’s just give him one of our pills!"
"But..."
"No buts! Trust , our dicine can cure any illness!"
Her words instantly attracted countless onlookers.
"[I don’t want to get my hopes up, but seeing how confident she is, this dicine seems like it might actually be incredibly potent!]"
"[One pill cures all ailnts? Is that even dicine? Even the Grand Supre Elder wouldn’t dare claim his Immortal Pills could do that, right?]"
"[Well, whatever the case, let’s just watch and see what happens.]"
The assistant helped Watanabe Isorou sit up and administered the pill. Watanabe Isorou showed no reaction at all throughout the entire process. The monitor also indicated that his heartbeat had already stopped.
In Team An Yan’s eting room, Ya Zhuo, Liang Chen, Su Siming, Mu Enyu, and Zhang Zhilan were watching them through the large screen, their expressions all incredibly grave.
