Seeing the two big-shot professors who showed no signs of stopping anytime soon, Chen Yu decisively pulled out his wand from his backpack and secretly cast a Muggle-Repelling Charm on the doctors in the room from behind him.
Instantly, the two big-shots who were still enthusiastically talking to Chen Yu, as well as the other doctors in the room, all remembered very urgent matters and hurried away.
“Oh no! I just remembered I forgot to turn off the gas at home!”
“Oh no, oh no, oh no, I haven’t written the report yet!”
“I need to go back and feed my cat!”
“Time to do rounds!”
“Slacking off, slacking off.”
The Muggle-Repelling Charm is a spell used to repel Muggles. It makes people subconsciously remember urgent matters and instinctively want to leave the area.
For Muggles, it’s an excellent way to clear a room.
It’s good to have a room without surveillance; he didn’t even need to destroy the cameras beforehand.
Big-shots are indeed big-shots. When some doctors hurried away after remembering urgent matters, a few strong-willed doctors still resisted the effects of the Muggle-Repelling Charm and did not leave the room immediately.
Perhaps for them, staying here was the most urgent matter.
Until one highly respected old academician said to another old academician, “Old Tu, do you remember how we discussed treating severe demyelinating diseases of the central nervous system when we were young? I just had a sudden flash of inspiration.”
“Tell me more…”
“I think the method of filling the patient with mesenchymal stem cell therapy could be improved slightly…”
The two highly respected big-shot academicians discussed as they unconsciously walked out.
After the two big-shots left the ward, the remaining doctors also hurried away.
Seeing everyone leave, Chen Yu finally breathed a sigh of relief, quickly jumped out of bed, and immediately rushed to the toilet.
These doctors were actually easy to deal with; the difficult ones were the unscrupulous media.
Especially those obscure small media companies and studios, sometimes they would go to any lengths to grab some attention.
Once in the toilet, he opened the floodgates, shook twice, and prepared to finish, all in one smooth motion.
Suddenly, a microphone reached out from the side.
“Hello, I’m a reporter from XX Media. Are you Mr. Chen Yu?”
“Can you talk about your feelings after being struck by lightning? Did you make a poisonous oath and suffer divine retribution? Or did you do something bad in secret? Is this a distortion of human nature, or a moral decay?”
The microphone this person was holding almost blocked his mouth.
Chen Yu had not expected that someone would bring a camera and specifically wait for him in the hospital toilet, just to interview him and ask him about his experience of being struck by lightning nine times.
An interview in the toilet?
Was this reporter crazy?
Chen Yu was disgusted by the other party’s bottomless behavior for the sake of traffic.
He didn’t want to bother with the other party at all.
Quibbling, calling a stag a horse, taking things out of context, and stirring up trouble were what these unscrupulous reporters did most often.
Every word he said would be misinterpreted and twisted into the result they wanted.
He was about to ignore the other party and walk directly out of the toilet.
Unexpectedly, the other party blocked him.
Realizing that there were no other outsiders in the toilet besides himself and the other party, Chen Yu knew he had stepped into a trap set by them.
A reporter holding a microphone for an interview, a cameraman carrying a camera, and two burly men blocking the door to prevent others from entering.
It seemed the other party was truly prepared.
“Don’t worry, this is a society ruled by law now. We just want to grab some traffic and make a little money. As long as you cooperate, we won’t do anything to you. Besides, I’m Director Ma’s nephew, so in a way, we’re colleagues.”
Director Ma, who manages logistics?
He usually had no interaction with him.
However, seeing the other party’s confident and smug look, Chen Yu still felt annoyed.
Especially bringing up Director Ma’s name, was he trying to threaten him with him?
Was this a warning that if he didn’t cooperate, his uncle would make things difficult for him?
Looking at the smiling reporter who seemed to have him figured out, Chen Yu didn’t even bother to ask his name.
Was he the kind of person who would silently suffer a loss?
But to be safe, he should confirm it slightly.
“Um, I want to ask, is the camera behind you not live-streaming, right?”
“Of course not. The camera isn’t even on right now, and it won’t be a live interview later. We’ll have to go back and edit it before publishing.”
Go back and edit?
He was probably trying to gain traffic by taking things out of context to achieve the effect he wanted, right?
He immediately cast four Imperios, turning the four people into idiots who only giggled.
Those under the Imperio feel their minds go blank, all thoughts and sense of responsibility vanish, and then they feel incredibly happy and joyful.
At this point, no matter what the caster makes the cursed person do, the cursed person will completely comply.
However, if this spell is cast on one person too many times, they will develop resistance, thereby weakening the spell’s power.
Looking at the four happy, idiotic people, Chen Yu was afraid that other irrelevant people might enter the toilet, so he quickly asked them why they were targeting him and to explain the situation.
Just as Chen Yu thought, none of the four were decent people. Although the leader was indeed Director Ma’s nephew, he was also a good-for-nothing.
Seeing the video of Chen Yu being struck by lightning go viral online, they decided to see if they could piggyback on Chen Yu’s traffic to make some money.
The person carrying the camera wasn't carrying a real camera; the camera was just an empty shell prop.
The real camera was hidden by the reporter on his chest, a pinhole camera, which had been working since he saw Chen Yu enter the toilet.
Good heavens, it’s a good thing this person’s pinhole camera didn’t have network capabilities, otherwise, his actions would have been live-streamed across the entire network.
This trick of 'stealing beams and pillars' was 'clever,' and quite underhanded.
Even if he firmly refused the interview, the other party could still get the material they wanted.
Is this how adults operate?
Unfortunately, he met someone like himself who had a cheat.
He made the unscrupulous reporter take out the pinhole camera on his body, used a Severing Charm to erase the evidence, and then, after repeatedly confirming that these four had no other tricks up their sleeves.
After learning that they had indeed received a hint from Director Ma, he ordered them to go back and expose all the scandals of the four of them, including his uncle, online.
They like to piggyback on hot topics, do they? Then let them piggyback on his and his uncle’s hot topics.
After returning to the ward, as soon as the effect of the Muggle-Repelling Charm disappeared, many doctors gradually came back into the room.
The two big-shot academicians returned. It seemed their discussion about the improved treatment plan for that illness was over, and then they remembered him again.
Chen Yu sighed. He couldn’t be as rough with these doctors, who were dedicated to the medical profession, as he was with that unscrupulous reporter.
He was given a free full-body check-up.
All the incongruous data was cleverly disguised by Chen Yu using spells.
By the time the entire process was completed, it was already afternoon, having started in the morning.
When there are too many real-life matters, it always makes one feel annoyed.
Can he still play games properly? It’s really a headache.
It wasn't until these doctors were satisfied with the physical data they wanted that the extremely enthusiastic doctors were expelled from the ward.
Only then did he have time to put on his helmet and enter the game world.
