July in midsummer was scorching, but Eastern City was still the same.
Eastern University Medical School was located in the downtown area of Qingyun District in the north of Eastern City, next to the wide and beautiful Qingyun Mountain. The school had a history of more than a hundred years. The school had the best teaching conditions, the best teaching staff, and the best medical talents.
There were many summer student activities, so the campus was still full of students, citizens, vehicles, and tourists.
"Erudite, benevolent, and benevolent," Gu Jun gazed at the grand school gate in the distance, muttered the school motto, and strode forward.
It had been almost three months since he left. Stepping back again had a completely different feeling.
This was the third day of the deep dive. Yesterday, the cruise ship docked in the Maldives and he immediately took the fastest flight back to Huaxia's Eastern City.
Today at midnight, the mission list was refreshed. However, due to environmental constraints, it was difficult to complete all of them. He currently did not have a mission on him. He would wait until he returned to school because the school and the affiliated hospital had sufficient environmental conditions.
Also, to test the effectiveness of the drugs, he had to return here.
On the street beside the school gate, there were always a few mobile hawkers selling all kinds of snacks. It was only 7 am, and Gu Jun had not had breakfast yet. He walked to a stall selling local snacks in Eastern City and asked the old hawker, "Uncle, give me a pancake. Can I pay with WeChat?"
"Yes, yes." The old man pointed to a small QR code payment sign hanging on the front of the car. His old face was full of an honest smile, "Pancakes for 5 yuan each."
"Okay." Gu Jun took out his phone, scanned the QR code, and paid the money. He watched the old man make the pancakes.
The old man was old, and his hair was all white, but his hands and feet were still quite nimble. He was full of energy. The old man smiled as he wrapped the filling. "Young man, I'll give you a little extra filling."
"Thank you." Gu Jun felt warmth in his heart.
Soon, the old man finished making the pancake and handed it to him enthusiastically, "Eat it while it's hot."
Gu Jun took a big bite of the pancake. It was warm and scalding, but it was delicious. It seemed that even the food cooked by the cruise ship's chef could not compare.
This must be the taste of home. Even if the undercurrents were surging outside, returning to Eastern University was like returning home.
"Young man, are you a student of Eastern University?" The old man asked. Seeing him nod his head, he immediately gave him a big thumbs up. "It's good to learn medicine. Learning medicine can cure illnesses and save lives. This is a great achievement. You are all pillars of the country. "
Gu Jun couldn't help but laugh. Uncle, could it be that you are a member of the Eastern University Praise Group? "Uncle, you are exaggerating. Actually, uh …"
The old man grinned, showing his chipped teeth, but he was full of praises. "I'm not exaggerating. I admire doctors the most. It's good to learn medicine."
"Every profession produces its own master." Gu Jun finished the entire pancake and praised, "Uncle, your pancake is very delicious."
"Young man, your words are pleasing to the ear." The old man was amused. "I'll give you a fried dough stick!"
Gu Jun took the fried dough stick with a smile, but he still scanned the QR code and paid for it. He felt that he had been tricked by the old man.
After saying goodbye to the old man, he continued to eat the fried dough stick and walked towards the school gate. After entering the campus, he headed in the direction of the laboratory building. There were more people on the road: students, tourists, and parents with their children …
As he walked, he reached the northern part of the campus. When he was still some distance away, Gu Jun suddenly heard someone call him in surprise. "Tycoon Jun?"
He turned his head and saw a man pushing a bicycle towards him. "It's really you. I haven't seen you for a few months. You didn't even reply my WeChat and phone calls."
The man was neither tall nor short. His hairline was already very conspicuous. He had a haggard face, dead fish eyes, and a pair of heavy dark circles under his eyes. He looked to be at least 40 years old, not much younger than the old hawker from earlier.
But in fact, this guy was only 21 years old. His head showed the typical symptoms of "Medical Dog Syndrome": premature aging due to a mountain of stress.
His name was Cai Zixuan, and he was one of Gu Jun's roommates. The two belonged to the same eight-year clinical course, Class 3. They used to get along quite well. It should be said that Cai Zixuan was an honest person who was often "bullied" by Gu Jun. When Gu Jun was messing around, Cai Zixuan would cover for him and lend him his notes to copy.
Although Cai Zixuan did not mess around with him, the friendship between the two was solid.
"Something happened, so I took a leave of absence from school. I'm back today." Gu Jun said with a smile. He stepped forward and punched his friend on the shoulder.
Because he had requested the Eastern University Affiliated Hospital to keep his diagnosis confidential, only a few people in the school knew about his illness. Only a few doctors in the neurosurgery department of the affiliated hospital knew about it. They did not even know that he was a student of Eastern University.
"Ugh." Cai Zixuan rubbed his shoulder in pain and said with a sigh, "Everyone thought you dropped out of school. Some said you suddenly died in a bar, some said your family went bankrupt … Sigh, let's not talk about it. It's good that you're back. If you want to take a make-up exam this summer, I'll lend you my notes. "
"Okay, I want all of them." Gu Jun nodded. His heart warmed up even more. "What about you? You didn't go home for the summer and failed your course? "
Cai Zixuan suddenly became spirited, and his face instantly became a few years younger. "I was nominated for the Pioneer Cup! I'm with Professor Gu. "
"Wow!" Gu Jun could not help but exclaim exaggeratedly. He was really excited for his friend. "Congratulations."
The Pioneer Cup was organized by the medical school in recent years. Undergraduates used the winter and summer holidays to conduct scientific research and experiments. Every year, all students of various majors competed against each other. However, only 60 people could be shortlisted. Half of them were from the five-year and eight-year programs. The professors selected the best and divided them into 12 groups of 5 people.
In addition to the training of personal ability and the development of interpersonal relationships, there were many benefits for the participating students if they could complete the thesis and get a ranking.
Five-year students wanted a postgraduate recommendation, while eight-year students wanted reputation and qualifications. Everyone wanted scholarships.
"Oh, fate. You know I'm good at giving drugs to mice. " Cai Zixuan was a person who liked to be emotional about everything. "Then, Professor Gu's research direction was tumor photodynamic therapy. When he felt that I was useful, he brought me along. Fate. "
He spoke without reservation. It was neither to show off nor to hurt Gu Jun's feelings, because Tycoon Jun did not care about the Pioneer Cup at all.
"The pillar of the country." Gu Jun gave his old uncle's praise to his friend. Zixuan deserved this praise.
"Hey." Cai Zixuan smiled happily. He thought of something. "Oh yes …" This was what Gu Jun would care about. He lowered his voice and said, "There's a situation in our group that I think I should tell you."
"What?" Gu Jun asked.
