Chapter 103

Upon arriving at the Hecheng City Government office to meet Xue Long, Wu Hao finally obtained a detailed understanding of the situation. It turned out that starting yesterday, local hospitals had been receiving isolated cases of infants suffering from food poisoning. At the time, the hospitals treated them as routine cases, and no one gave it much thought. By today, however, the number of patients with identical symptoms had surged, leaving every major hospital in Hecheng completely overwhelmed. Only then did the hospital administrators realize the gravity of the situation and report it to the City Committee.

With immense pressure mounting from their superiors, a desperate Xue Long suddenly thought of Wu Hao and gave him a call.
