Chapter 314 The Healer, Also a Devious Path
Looking at the old man Tanaka's incredibly confident and arrogant smile, Uchiha Ryo also laughed.
Calling him reckless? Fine, fine, you're old, I won't hold it against you... That's impossible! Uchiha Ryo suddenly picked up the fever reducer and held it in his hand.
"Mr. Tanaka, what a brilliant surprise attack! But I have an even more ingenious suggestion."
"Oh? Tell me about it!"
Uchiha Ryo's expression was extremely serious. "According to the doctor, taking two fever-reducing pills at seven o'clock is enough. I think instead of launching a surprise attack, we should just take a whole box and... launch a massive attack!"
Natsume opened his eyes in surprise. Wouldn't this kill someone? But before he could speak, Kazuno-senpai signaled him to be quiet. Uchiha Ryo wouldn't really harm anyone; he knew what he was doing.
"Wonderful! Wonderful!"
Upon hearing this, old man Tanaka looked at Uchiha Rin with a wise gaze filled with admiration.
"Quick! Get the medicine! I'll unleash a massive attack right now!"
Uchiha Rin, of course, did not give him the medicine, but instead took out a small packet of gummy candies from his pocket.
"Mr. Tanaka, don't rush! Before taking your medicine, why not have some candy? Let's try a clever trick—feign weakness!"
"good!"
Grandpa Tanaka took the gummy candy and started eating it, while Uchiha Ryo whispered something to himself.
"I wonder how much alcohol Mr. Tanaka can hold?"
"Ha? Your alcohol tolerance! It's no different from drinking plain water!"
"That's wonderful!" Uchiha Ryo exclaimed in surprise. "How about I pay for it, and Mr. Tanaka can order a few bottles of baijiu using his phone! We'll give those viruses a good beating! Let them get drunk to death!"
Grandpa Tanaka clapped his hands in delight, exclaiming that Uchiha Rin was truly a medical genius descended to earth, whose plans were all aimed at striking the vital points of the virus!
"However... Mr. Tanaka, I have another request."
"Hahaha, young Uchiha, please speak freely! Since you've helped me so much, if I, Tanaka, can do the same, I will definitely help you back!"
Uchiha Ryo said seriously, "Natsume and I have to leave later. When we do, just tell the doctor and your family that these plans you've come up with are your own!"
"This... I, Tanaka, am not that kind of person! A genius like you shouldn't be hiding behind the scenes!"
"No, no, no, I'm a very low-key person. Just say you came up with all these ideas yourself! Don't say we suggested them!"
Grandpa Tanaka took a deep breath. "Alright then, there are too few people like you who do good deeds without seeking fame or fortune... How wonderful it would be if there were more people like you in the world."
Uchiha Ryo stood up, beckoned Natsume to leave, then exchanged a glance with Kazuno-senpai and silently raised his phone.
Kazeno chuckled, indicating that he understood and would contact him by phone later.
"Chitanda, Natsume and I are here to help. Let's finish this quickly so we can go eat. I just ate two steamed buns and I'm already a little hungry."
Chitanda, who was following behind Irisu Fuyumi, hummed in agreement. Then Irisu Fuyumi looked at the two of them and said, "I heard you don't need me to treat you to a meal? I feel bad asking you two for help."
Uchiha Ryo waved his hand, "It's alright, then you can just give Chitanda this nurse's uniform to her."
"That's no problem... Let's go then, with the two of you helping out, we should be able to finish the work in half an hour."
Chitanda's part-time job ended quickly, and the two followed Uchiha Ryo out of the hospital. Only then did Natsume speak.
"Well, isn't this a bad idea? What if Grandpa Tanaka takes it seriously..."
"He told me to be reckless. Don't worry, the doctor will take care of it."
Not long after, Kazunari called from the hospital room—
Tanaka's family finally arrived at the hospital, but before they could thank the kind person who brought the old man there, they saw the old man drinking a little wine and eating candy as a snack.
The Tanaka family was terrified and immediately called a doctor. Then, the old man Tanaka began to launch into a long and rambling speech.
He claimed to have invented a highly effective method to combat the virus! As the saying goes, medicine is often deceptive, so he employed a strategy of switching weapons and overwhelming the enemy, planning a nighttime surprise attack. A massive army was closing in!
Then... the elderly person could have been hospitalized for only one day and then left, but ended up staying for three more days, and was also diagnosed with high blood pressure and high blood sugar, and will have to quit sugar and alcohol from now on.
In response, Uchiha Ryo stated that he is a gentle and kind Uchiha, and that he never holds grudges or seeks revenge if someone insults him, since he usually settles scores on the spot.
As dusk fell, in a private room of an upscale restaurant, Uchiha Ryo and Chitanda Eru enjoyed a sumptuous dinner. Afterwards, they went to the panda-themed park to bring Yukinoshita a gift.
It was already past nine o'clock when they got home, but Chitanda had been staying at Yukino's house for the past two weeks, so the two of them weren't worried about staying out too late.
It was somewhat surprising that Yukino and Hana were still awake so late.
"What's wrong with you guys? Tomorrow's Monday, isn't it?"
Tsurumi Rumi went back to her room to rest early, but Shirasaki Hana actually... actually studied! Uchiha Ryo was really pleased!
"Xiaohua, what are you doing? Schoolwork?"
Shirasaki Hana looked up. "I'm writing down a recipe. Yukino-neechan taught me. I'm not very good with my hands, so I need to write down all the details so I can make my own sweets!"
Don't underestimate the perseverance of a foodie!
Yukinoshita glanced at the Uchiha. "What's wrong with Monday? I just wanted to sleep in a little later."
Chitanda Eru thought for a moment, then said seriously, "I bet Yukino lost the rock-paper-scissors game because Hayasaka went first, I went second, and Yukino won't get her turn until next weekend."
"Don't talk nonsense! I didn't say it was something so trivial!"
"I see," Uchiha Ryo chuckled. "Actually, I have quite a deep understanding of medicine. Yukino, you must be sick. Come to the bedroom, let's give you a proper treatment!"
"You're the one who's sick, I'm perfectly fine!"
"All patients will stubbornly say they're not sick. I'm a professional medical enthusiast, so... Chitanda, give me the nurse's uniform in your bag. I think Yukinoshita could also pull it off."
Chitanda obediently took out the nurse's uniform from the bag and handed it to Uchiha Rin under Yukino's astonished gaze.
"Where...where did you guys go?!"
The innocent Shirasaki Hana suddenly looked up, "Does Brother Ling also know how to treat illnesses? Actually, I'm not feeling well..."
"Is Xiaohua not feeling well?" Uchiha Ling immediately dropped his joking expression and bent down to touch Shirasaki Hana's forehead.
"Are you alright? Should we go to the hospital? Where does it hurt?"
"Um, my stomach feels uncomfortable here."
Uchiha Ryo frowned. "Does it hurt a lot? Should we go to the hospital?"
Yukinoshita looked over with concern. "Hana, why didn't you tell me beforehand if you were feeling unwell?"
"It doesn't hurt, it's just... uh, it keeps making gurgling noises, how can I fix this?" Xiaohua stared at Uchiha Ling with her big eyes, a half-smile on her face.
Yukinoshita breathed a sigh of relief. "Hana, don't joke around like that."
Uchiha Ryo laughed. "That's quite a serious illness. I'll prescribe you a remedy: one serving each of spicy chicken wings, a hamburger and fries, and an egg tart, taken with cola. That should temporarily cure it!"
Shirasaki Hana swallowed hard. "Then! I need to take my medicine!"
"Let's wait until tomorrow. Don't you even look at the time?"
