Academician Li Hua had fallen into a deep coma while playing with the game pod!
This could shock the entire Jiangcheng, or even the entire country.
The hospital where Grandma Li was staying immediately entered a state of high alert. The entire hospital was completely busy. Only a small portion of Grandma Li's students could squeeze into the corridor outside the ward.
Jiang Qiao and Wanxiang were one of them. Now Jiang Qiao and Wanxiang were sitting in the corridor outside the ward.
When Academician Li Hua was in trouble, people from all walks of life in Jiangcheng had basically gathered. Jiang Qiao even saw his father's figure in the corridor.
But at this moment, Jiang Qiao wore a cap to hide his face.
It was not that Jiang Qiao did not want to see his father, it was that Jiang Qiao did not want to see his father under these circumstances.
Wanxiang seemed to also recognize that the adults gathered in the corridor were not ordinary people. She was a little scared and reached out to grab Jiang Qiao's hand. Jiang Qiao subconsciously dodged, which made Wanxiang a little stunned for a moment.
"You … if you are really afraid, just grab my wrist." Jiang Qiao thought for a moment, then pulled up his sleeve and said to Wanxiang.
The main reason was that there were too many people here. His own father was also present. If he behaved too intimately, it might have a bad effect on Wanxiang.
Wanxiang seemed to be a little angry. After she grabbed Jiang Qiao's wrist, her little hand was very strong. It could be described as squeezing.
But the little interlude between the two did not last long. Their attention was attracted by Jiangcheng University's principal.
"You don't know?
The equipment in the holographic projection department is all managed by you. Academician Li had an accident with the equipment. You and I don't know? "Jiangcheng University's principal lowered his voice and questioned the person in charge of the department.
This was an academician, and an academician with high prestige in the country. If Academician Li Hua really had an accident with Jiangcheng University, he might not even need to be the principal anymore.
"I think it's because the game pod itself has a safety hazard?" The person in charge of the department was also puzzled.
The VR Pod had only been on the market for less than half a month. Although it was still the most luxurious, it was still an epoch-making product. The equipment that allowed one to fully immerse themselves in Stealth was not something that the average person could fathom.
Just as the group of people were running around in circles, the department head saw Wan Xiang. His eyes lit up and he was about to ask what happened when Jiang Qiao pulled up his cap and shook his head at the department head.
After he recognized Jiang Qiao, he had to give up the idea of making Wan Xiang the scapegoat, but he found a new consultant.
Li Cong's ID was Insect Mastery.
Under Mr. Yin's recommendation, he successfully entered Jiangzhou University with a very special identity. At the same time, he became Academician Li's proud disciple, a true proud disciple.
The saying that interest was the best teacher was proven true for Li Cong. After he entered university, he began to crazily take remedial classes, all to prepare for his career in the game.
Although some of his subjects were still at the bottom, his professional subjects were already in the middle.
He was also the only one of Academician Li's students who played the Holy Spirit.
"Student Li Cong, please come here."
"Me?
What's the matter, Professor Chen? "
Insect Mastery was a lot more restrained after entering university. He was not as flamboyant as he was in high school.
"Yes, do you know why Academician fainted?" the department head asked.
Jiang Qiao really wanted Li Cong to not answer, but Wan Xiang grabbed his wrist and refused to let go. This caused Jiang Qiao's movements to be a step slower.
"Before I logged off, I saw that the teacher's pet level had increased to 75, and then … the teacher logged off."
Insect Mastery was not a scheming person. He was under a lot of pressure when facing the teacher and the principal, so he told them everything he knew.
"Game?
Pet?
What game and pet? You're also using the new gaming equipment. Don't you think there's anything wrong with it? "
The person in charge of the equipment did not have the right to play the Holy Spirit, so he did not know what it was like to play the Holy Spirit with the gaming pod.
"That's all I know, but when I played the Holy Spirit with the gaming pod, I felt like I became stronger." Insect Mastery could not find a suitable word to describe it.
"Professor Chen, do you think it could be VR vertigo or something like that?" The principal of Jianghai University could only ask about the symptoms he knew related to VR equipment.
"VR vertigo can't make people faint. Academician used the gaming pod. If there's nothing wrong with the gaming pod, then there's something wrong with the Holy Spirit. Anyway, the gaming pod has just been released, so there might be some safety issues."
"So the conclusion is that there's a safety issue with the gaming pod and the Holy Spirit?
How did this product hit the market? "
Wait … How did you come to this conclusion?
When Jiang Qiao was listening, he felt that this was the only conclusion he could come to. The person was playing the gaming pod and suddenly fainted.
No matter how he thought about it, it looked like the gaming pod or even the Holy Spirit game. What's wrong with it?
"Hurry up and stop using the equipment. I'll report it to the relevant departments. You guys can return the goods first!" The principal of Jianghai University immediately instructed the department in charge.
Hearing this instruction, Wan Xiang tightened her grip on Jiang Qiao's wrist. This was because the Holographic Projection Department of Jianghai University was the only place she could use the gaming pod to play the Holy Spirit.
Perhaps Wan Xiang could use the VR equipment in the internet cafe to play the Holy Spirit. However, after experiencing the gaming pod, no player would ever want to experience the paralysis of the five senses of the gaming pod again.
However, Wan Xiang's little protest could not change the decision of the principal of Jianghai University. At this time, the deputy mayor had also rushed over. At the same time, there was also a reporter.
This reporter was not a reporter from a local TV station. He was a reporter from the largest TV station in China. Obviously, the academician's accident had blown up. The higher-ups could not suppress it even if they wanted to.
The principal of Jianghai University really wanted to avoid the reporter's interview. However, with the deputy mayor following him, he could not avoid it even if he wanted to. Therefore, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and face the reporter.
"Do you think the cause of the accident is the newly released gaming equipment?"
"I'm afraid so. Although we have conducted various safety tests on the purchased equipment, there are still some unknown hidden dangers. The academician only fainted after using the relevant equipment. As for the specific situation, we still need to listen to the doctor's diagnosis."
As soon as the principal finished his sentence, the door of the ward was suddenly pushed open. The attending doctor walked out from the ward.
"Where is the patient's family?" The attending doctor immediately asked the crowd that had gathered in the corridor.
"I … I am the patient's son. How is my mother's condition?"
Granny Li's son rushed to the doctor. Jiang Qiao remembered that Granny Li had two sons and one daughter. Only one son stayed in China to do business. Now, he was also a middle-aged man in his forties.
"The hospital that your mother often goes to is the city center hospital, right?" The attending doctor asked while holding Academician Li's medical record.
"Yes, my mother's waist and legs are not very good. Some time ago, her stomach seemed to have some problems. I bought some medicine for her. Is she okay now?" Granny Li's son quickly asked.
"The patient is fine. She is very healthy. She is so healthy that she doesn't look like a 70-year-old person. I took a look at the medical record of the Heart Hospital. Your mother has severe osteoporosis and lumbar disc herniation. When we diagnosed her, we also diagnosed the early symptoms of stomach cancer."
The doctor took the medical record of the Heart Hospital and reported his diagnosis. His voice was filled with a kind of incredible shock.
"Stomach … stomach cancer?"
Granny Li's son almost fainted when he heard the word cancer, but he quickly calmed down and quickly asked, "Doctor, how can you say that she is healthy when she has cancer?
Is my mother good or bad? "
"Very good, your mother's physical condition is very good!
The osteoporosis situation has eased a lot. I even suspect that the medical record of the Heart Hospital is false. Because stomach cancer is an early cause, there are many ways to cure it. But sir, I will ask for the last time … is your mother really a 70-year-old person? "
The doctor seemed to not believe his diagnosis, so he repeatedly asked Granny Li's son to confirm.
"My mother is 73 years old!
Don't I know how old my mother is? "
"But the results of the test are more like the physical condition of a 40-year-old middle-aged person. Unbelievable … Did your mother undergo any recuperation or exercise in the past few years?" the doctor asked.
"Recuperation … exercise … My mother hasn't retired yet and is very busy with work. How could she have time to exercise … exercise, Holy Spirit!"
Granny Li's son finally remembered his mother's recent enthusiasm for exercise. "Half a year ago, my mother seemed to have been playing VR games for some research. Holy Spirit … This is the only exercise she could have done for the past half a year!"
"VR games do have the effect of strengthening the body, but the effect is a bit too obvious."
The doctor looked at the various analysis reports in his hands, still not daring to believe that these were the various data of a 70-year-old person.
"Obvious, isn't it just exercise? How far can it go?"
"With your mother's current physical condition, I think it won't be a problem for your mother to live to 100 years old. If this effect is really brought about by playing with the Holy Spirit, I suggest she continue to maintain it."
After introducing the patient's condition, the doctor murmured in a low voice, "Holy Spirit really can cure all kinds of diseases."
Hmm?
Jiang Qiao heard the doctor's murmur and instantly recognized him as one of his own.
However, as soon as the doctor finished introducing Granny Li's physical condition to her family, someone else caught up to him and asked about Academician Li's physical condition.
He could only sigh and repeat what he said before. However, the University of Jianghai's principal and the deputy mayor did not believe that the Holy Spirit could strengthen one's body. Therefore, the doctor had no choice but to list a bunch of examples of people using VR games to train, such as famous athletes from other countries using VR games to train.
Although the Holy Spirit game could not cure cancer, it could cure osteoporosis, lumbar disc herniation, and coronary heart disease. This was like pseudoscience to the doctor, but it was an indisputable fact that after playing with the Holy Spirit, Academician Li's physical fitness instantly improved by a large margin.
On the other side, Wanxiang let out a small sigh of relief after learning that Granny Li was fine. Only then did she realize that she had been holding onto Jiang Qiao's wrist.
"Does it hurt …?"
Wanxiang hurriedly let go of Jiang Qiao's wrist and discovered that there was a red mark on Jiang Qiao's wrist.
"It's alright."
Jiang Qiao was currently browsing through the news on his phone. After Academician Li's accident, even if the doctor said that the academician was fine, the safety of the gaming pod would still be investigated. However, doubts about the gaming pod's safety had gradually begun to surface on the internet. The first to express that there was a problem was the management of Team White Sword.
Because the gaming pod had burned down their club.
Team White Sword was holding a press conference about … the burning of the club. While the management was still questioning the gaming pod's safety, the camera turned to Team White Sword's captain, Emperor Bai.
Just when everyone thought that Emperor Bai would question the gaming pod along with the management, Emperor Bai looked at the camera in silence for about three seconds, then said …
"I'm sorry, I was too weak, that's why our club was burned down."
