Chapter 1725 Duane's Downfall

Author: Night Eleven
Everyone at the farmers' markets reacted strongly against the temporary control measures implemented. If the market were shut down, many people would lose their jobs.

This was also why Duane thought that stirring up trouble here would be most effective.

"I don't understand," a stall owner said. "Why are they stopping us from doing our business?"

"Same here! They shut down the market out of nowhere! What about my wife and kids? How are they going to eat?"

The vendors at the markets already had such complaints, and they couldn't sit still now after their emotions were stirred. Some of them were even trying to tear the tape sealing the market off so that they could leave.

Duane watched from the sidelines, feeling gleeful.

"Who do the Carvers think they are to stick their noses into Grindham's business?" he asked the man stopping him from entering the market. "Who sent you here? Do you have the right to exercise such measures?"

Wearing a suit, he looked like the hero here to sa

    Aria followed Luther to Summerhill Hospital. The number of patients seeking treatment here was much higher than that of other hospitals. Everyone believed this hospital offered better medical care, which explained the long lines of people waiting for their prescriptions. Compared to her previous encounter with the Gunther family in Riveria, Aria found this hospital much harder to tackle. She could tell that this was a hospital that could actually "heal" people. "Thank you. Thank you so much, Dr. Horton. My husband surely wouldn't have made it if it weren't for you." An elderly woman held a doctor's hand emotionally while handing him a gift as appreciation. The doctor seemed kind too. He was a middle-aged man who maintained his physique exceptionally well. Having appeared on a variety show before, he carried himself with remarkable dignity. He kept reassuring the elderly woman, "This is just our duty. Keep monitoring your husband's condition when you get home, and he will cert

    "Dr. Helm is the deputy head of the Department of Infectious Diseases in your hospital, isn't he?" Callum was thrown into a panic—he'd had an argument with Caspar and driven him out of the hospital just a few hours ago. When Aria brought Caspar up, he realized something had gone really wrong. Aria continued before he could say anything, "He told me everything."Aria looked at everyone. "Hospitals are where people are saved and the sick are treated. As the director of a hospital, not only did you not think of how to resolve the problems at hand, but you'd also done away with a responsible doctor who brought the issue up. "When a disease appears, you attempt to withhold all information and bury it under the soil. Do you need me to remind you who you all are? Are you worthy of being called doctors?"No one dared even to breathe. Aria went on, "If this disease is dealt with well, you won't be in much trouble. However, if you don't manage to control its spread, what awaits you will

    After zeroing in on an important clue, Aria asked, "How did you know that he resold aquatic products for a living?""He always smells like fish. I asked him about it one day while doing my rounds." Caspar seemed confused. "Is there any problem with that?"Aria looked at him earnestly. "It's an important clue. Dr. Helm, please try to remember where he did his business and where he lived.""Where he lived? The address he filled in was—" Caspar racked his brain. "He filled in a farmers' market address—it's nearby. I remember now. He told me he often transported shrimp and fish to the market."At the mention of the farmers' market, Aria's gaze became serious. "Wait."Without hesitation, she made a call, not to the person in charge of Grindham, but to someone in the national government. As No. 001 of the Special Missions Unit, she'd always reported to the army, so she called Kenneth, who was back in Janovin. Kenneth forwent the small talk because Aria usually only called this numbe

    Caspar heaved a long sigh after spilling everything out. He turned an expectant gaze on Aria. "Can I trouble you with something, Dr. Whiz?"Aria nodded. "Just tell me about it.""Can you head to the hospital and take a look at the patients? I know that I'm putting you in a difficult situation, since you may end up catching the disease. "However, we've been researching the disease for so long without getting any results, and the patients' condition is worsening. I feel bad when I see the patients suffer. "Not just that, but if the disease isn't controlled and begins to be spread widely, the consequences will be dire. A lot of these patients are just ordinary folk, including me. I come from an ordinary family, and I know they all want to live safely without sickness or disaster."This sickness really does take a toll on the patients. If it were possible, I wish it were me on the hospital bed instead."Aria looked at Caspar with respect. He really did embody the kindness and benev

    A while later, the nurses working with Caspar gathered in the disinfection room. "After I leave, you must take care of the patients to the best of your ability," Caspar said seriously. "We all want the best for our patients, don't we? I believe you can do the job well. "If there's anything you aren't sure about, you can ask me anytime. Facing the disease, medical practitioners like us should stand at the frontlines. You're still so young, so maybe you haven't experienced something like this before. "You'd think that the world is all sunshine and rainbows, but now that they are gone, you must take up your responsibilities and move forward."Several nurses felt their eyes water. Caspar had always put his all into helping his patients and saving lives. All the patients in this hospital praised him, calling him their savior."Now that you're leaving, Dr. Helm, we're losing confidence as well," a nurse said. "When you're here, we feel like we're supported. We all know how capable yo

    Caspar understood what Callum meant by that—if he refused to go home, they'd put all the blame on him. He took a deep breath. "Fine, I'll go home and rest."Only then was Callum satisfied. He didn't leave directly, though. He headed to the disinfection room, where he disinfected himself thoroughly twice. He didn't even want the clothes he was wearing. "Burn them," he said, cleaning his hands with a wet wipe. "That doctor's way too stubborn for his own good, and I had to speak to him for so long. What if he infects me too?""Don't worry, Dr. Berglier," another doctor said. "Your protective suit is of the highest quality; nothing will happen to you."Callum was satisfied. "If Dr. Helm was half as sharp as you, he would've been promoted long ago.""He's honestly quite dumb," he continued. "Why would the authorities begin a large-scale operation to track down the source of a disease that hasn't affected us yet?"If we do as he says and lock down the area, the entire west side of t

    "He's right!" two other doctors agreed. "They didn't even do this during a cholera outbreak! If you make such a huge fuss, what would the higher-ups think? And we'll have to write a report too, won't we?""We must write that report," Caspar Helm said. "I have reason to suspect that this is more serious than a cholera outbreak."Although everyone is saying that there is no proof that this unknown disease is transmissible through human contact, my experience tells me that this is a large-scale pandemic, and the virus can spread through human contact. "We need to provide correct solutions to stop the disease from spreading." The director of this hospital, Callum Berglier, said anxiously, "I held this meeting for you to discuss solutions. What the hell are you talking about?"Another participant on the other side pushed his palm down, silencing Callum. "It's fine. Dr. Helm here is still young, and he doesn't know the serious consequences of a regional lockdown. "We don't want sugg

    Aria and Landon had visited the village, come into contact with monkeys submerged in water, and gone to the farmers' market. If the source of the disease was as Aria had speculated, a trip to the hospital wouldn't make much of a difference. "I can take you there, but don't touch anyone at the hospital," Aria said, her words spilling out in a barrage. "Also, wear a mask before you enter."Before she drove out, she called one of the members of the Special Missions Unit in charge of watching the farmers' market. "If anyone comes over, tell them that the redevelopment of the market was ordered by Lucas Murray, the secretary-general of Ludwiten. Have them direct their concerns to him instead.""Roger that, boss."The unit members were ordered not to mention the SMU in the middle of an operation. Aria listened to the noises from the other side of the phone. "Tell all other members who arrived at the market to wear their masks properly. If possible, have everyone in the market stay w
