Plague Doctor

In the overlapping area of ​​Mobei Tianxuan, the huge abyss is still a dead darkness, the sky is cloudy, and snow is falling.

Today is December 30, 2022. This year is about to pass. The Locust God incident happened nine months ago, and the Black Goat incident has also subsided for more than a month.

This is not a peaceful year. Two huge disasters have caused many great changes. The Tianji World and the Mysterious World have become aware of each other's existence. The Tianxuan General Administration has been established to jointly fight against the dark forces that erode the two worlds.

Gu Jun, holding a cane in his right hand and wearing a thick cotton coat, walked on the land in the overlapping area that was gradually covered with snowflakes, looking at the surrounding scene.

Compared with nine months ago, the biggest difference here is that there are more frontline defense facilities built near the abyss.

On the edge of the two worlds, high-rise buildings are rising, and the two frontline bases of the Tianxuan General Administration are getting better and better. Every day is busy with traffic. A bridge has been built between the two worlds, and there are more and more exchanges, trade, and cooperation with each other. .

He stepped on the snowflakes and walked in one direction, where many people were waiting for him. Today was the inauguration and unveiling ceremony of the Yu Chi statue.

After calling Tong Ye in the middle of the night that day, Gu Jun started to participate in promoting his proposal as soon as he got up early in the morning.

Tong Ye's words in the middle of the night were not to deal with him, but indeed to show his full support and actions.

Driven by their leadership, the state has increased investment in medical insurance, included more drugs in the medical insurance catalog, and increased reimbursement amounts in various places, benefiting more patients with serious diseases and rare diseases. For example, Imicizumab, which is used to treat hemophilia, has been included, and patients can receive free medication like some developed countries and regions.

On the other hand, the treatment of employees in the medical and pharmaceutical industries should be improved, and various research and development subsidies should be provided to pharmaceutical companies and laboratories.

This is already the biggest change that Tong Ye can achieve in the short term. Although Tong Ye is currently popular, there are still many things that he cannot do, so he can only take his time.

However, Gu Jun felt that there was not much time for the two realms of Tianxuan to take their time.

And change is not enough, far from enough...

Especially on a global scale, for more than a month, there has been almost no progress.

He gave suggestions and stated the interests, but few countries really listened to him and just threw him a lot of questions.

The largest number of people in the world live in the third world, living in poverty, accounting for approximately 73% of the world's population. The medical situation in Africa has never been good, not just for patients with rare diseases, but for all civilians. Who will bear the medical insurance costs for these people? And also bear the cost of improving local medical conditions?

All countries in the world, how to distribute it? How to manage? How to continue to develop?

Plus a mysterious world...

On the other hand, the major pharmaceutical companies have also received a lukewarm response. Some pharmaceutical companies have said that the prices of certain drugs can be appropriately reduced, but they feel that the idea of ​​sharing technology, integrating human resources, and jointly developing new drugs is not feasible in the current society.

It wouldn't go so smoothly, Gu Jun had known for a long time and would not let himself be discouraged.

If he himself is not willing to believe it, no one will be willing to try to change it.

He knew that pharmaceutical companies wanted to maintain profits, and he also knew that things were complicated. He never thought that all patents would be confiscated to all mankind, and that businessmen who invested money and researchers who invested their lives in research and development would not get returns. He just I don’t want those rewards to be realized through the patient’s pain.

Therefore, Gu Jun proposed to establish a new specialized two-sector international organization, with funds allocated by various countries to coordinate funds, to achieve free medical care for all, and at the same time, to satisfy the pharmaceutical industry. This will change the fiscal structure of each country and change many related interests, but in this era, it has to change.

However, his proposal was also blocked.

Gu Jun is not an expert in this field. What he proposes is just a rough idea. He believes that if everyone is willing to go in this direction, there will be people who are more intelligent and capable in this area to come up with better and more powerful ideas. Implementable solutions...

The snow fell harder, falling on the ground and on the stone statue in front.

In front of the statue, many people from both Tianxuan and Tianxuan realms came, but not all of Yu Chi's familiar comrades came.

If possible, they would all like to be here at this time, but they are busy with work, and it is not wise for everyone to gather here, the organization does not allow it.

Tong Ye didn't come either, watching remotely from the screen; Yu Chi's old boss Zeng Chanjun, who was also the co-director of the Tianxuan General Administration, held the ceremony. Chen Ziyuan and many of Chi's old colleagues from the Xuan Secret Bureau were there, and Feng Peiqian was also there. Now they have Accept this fact.

Half a month ago, Yu Chi's body was buried in his hometown in Mysterious World. Many of them burst into tears at the funeral.

That day, Gu Jun also went to the mysterious world to attend the funeral.

He also attended the funerals and memorial services of Grant Bell, Wang Ke, Cao Yicong and others.

Tianji Bureau and Goa have their own commemorative activities for them, and because Yu Chi symbolizes the friendship between Tianxuan and Tianxuan worlds, Tianxuan General Administration erected a statue of him here.

Not everyone knows exactly how Yu Chi died. They only know that he endured tremendous pain and fought to the death to gain a chance.

But Feng Peiqian, who knew best when she saw Gu Jun approaching, showed no resentment in her slightly red eyes. The situation at that time was what Yu Chi wanted. She couldn't do it, but Gu Jun, who could do it, was not the murderer. .

Long before the funeral, she told Gu Jun with a smile and tears, "I have long known who Captain Yu is. He never thinks about himself. He only thinks about serious things and others. This kind of person One day I will sacrifice myself...that's why I commit the crime

I really like him..."

The relationship between her and Gu Jun will not be like before, nor will it be like nothing happened, but there will be no hatred and no gaps, and they both know this.

Feng Peiqian did not choose to retire, nor did she want to rest for too long in a place like the Recreation Department. She still wanted to continue fighting.

She is not as fierce as Lou Xiaoning, but she is not weak at all.

Lou Xiaoning did not come, but participated remotely in a wheelchair. Kongque and Mo Qing also watched remotely; Uncle Dan, Wu Shiyu, and Deng Ximei also came, and they were looking at the brand-new statue, which was much taller and grander than the real Yu Chi. , but it doesn’t have the verve of a real person or the anxious look of PTSD.

After Gu Jun came, he waited silently with everyone. Soon after, it was time and the unveiling ceremony officially began.

Everyone in front of the statue stood neatly, and this scene was broadcast live simultaneously to many people from both circles, saluting and observing silence.

Snow fell heavily, and Feng Peiqian's eyes fell into tears again.

Gu Jun stared up at the statue of Yu Chi, and the scene from the beginning of his acquaintance flashed through his mind. Yu Chi was like a madman and a beggar on the street...

Yu Chi, Xue Ba, Grant Bell...and the thousands of people who sacrificed themselves in retrograde motion...

He is Gu Jun, and he is also them. Part of his heart already belongs to them.

The sun has set, but as long as people like them are not extinct, the darkness will not try to extinguish the light of day.

Love the Plague Doctor.
