Urban Super Medical Saint-Chapter 733 - 732 Heading to Australia

"No, I'm on my way over now!" Ge Dongxu said and immediately hung up Ouyang Zesheng's call.

After hanging up Ouyang Zesheng's call, Ge Dongxu immediately phoned Xu Lei and asked him to arrange the trip to Melbourne.

Having called Xu Lei, Ge Dongxu swiftly hailed a taxi to return to Yatu Apartments.

Sitting in the cab, Ge Dongxu first made a call home to tell his parents he had a temporary matter and wouldn't make it back in the next few days.

Knowing their son was incredibly capable, Ge Shengming and his wife didn't ask further questions, only advising him to be cautious before hanging up.

Just after hanging up with his parents, Ge Dongxu received a call back from Xu Lei, who said that there was a direct flight to Melbourne leaving Shanghai at eight o'clock tonight. Although it was a rush, instructions had been given, and they would wait for his arrival.

"Good!" Ge Dongxu replied in a deep voice.

"Do you need us to arrange someone to accompany you?" Xu Lei asked cautiously, his voice betraying the hint of urgency he sensed from Ge Dongxu today even through the phone.

"No need! If necessary, I will contact Director Fan when I get there," Ge Dongxu answered.

This time his martial nephew had been shot thrice, and his life hung by a thread. He definitely wouldn't show mercy on this trip. Bringing more people would attract attention, which would be counterproductive.

"Alright, we have already arranged for reception at Shanghai Airport. They will arrange for your boarding as soon as possible," Xu Lei said.

"Good! I will drive my official car there. They should recognize my vehicle," Ge Dongxu said before ending the call.

The railway station wasn't far from Yatu Apartments, and it wasn't rush hour, so by the time Ge Dongxu made his calls, the car had already reached Yatu Apartments.

Ge Dongxu got into his Jeep Grand Cherokee, which boasted special military plates, and for the first time activated the alarm system, speeding away with a siren blaring.

The traffic police at the intersections, hearing the alarm and seeing the special military plates, immediately implemented temporary traffic control to let Ge Dongxu's vehicle through first.

The car sped unhindered out of the city, passed directly through the toll station, and raced along the expressway heading to Shanghai.

This time, Ge Dongxu truly floored the accelerator.

Vehicles on the expressway only heard a whoosh as a car sped past them, and by the time they realized what had happened, all they could see was the back of a car vanishing into the distance.

The Grand Cherokee's furious speeding naturally attracted the highway patrol's attention, but once they noticed the plates on the car, a chill went through them. They immediately informed the toll stations along the route to be ready to let him pass without delay.

The car raced desperately, and Ge Dongxu finally arrived at the airport just before a quarter to eight.

The National Security Bureau's personnel were already waiting for him at the airport.

Upon seeing Ge Dongxu arrive, they immediately led him through a special passage directly into the airplane's first-class cabin without any obstacles.

"Hey, Ge, what are you doing here?" As Ge Dongxu entered the first-class cabin, a voice of surprise rang out, followed by Ge Dongxu seeing a blonde woman standing up and waving at him.

It was Betty, the very cheerful American girl who had come to the Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital to study acupuncture, whom Ge Dongxu had met at the Christmas party.

"I have a friend in Melbourne who had an accident, so I went to see them. What about you? Aren't you from San Francisco in the United States? Why aren't you heading to the States for the winter break instead of going to Australia?" Ge Dongxu's seat just happened to be next to Betty's, so as he sat down, he casually said.

"That's right, I'm from San Francisco and I grew up there. But my mother is from Melbourne, she has a house there, so we generally go to Melbourne for the winter because it's summer there," Betty replied.

"Oh, I see," Ge Dongxu nodded.

"How long will you be staying in Melbourne? Maybe I can take you out for a stroll. I'm quite familiar with Melbourne," Betty said enthusiastically.

"Thank you, I'm not sure yet," Ge Dongxu replied.

"No problem, I'll give you my phone number. If you get bored in Melbourne, just give me a call." Saying this, Betty gave Ge Dongxu her phone number.

Although Ge Dongxu wasn't in the mood at the moment, seeing Betty's enthusiasm, he couldn't very well put on an aloof demeanor, so he reluctantly gave her his number as well.

The plane took off soon after.

Once the plane was soaring stable through the blue sky, the outgoing Betty chattered away, striking up a conversation with Ge Dongxu.

"Ge, you know I went to the Jiangnan Province Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital to learn acupuncture. Although acupuncture is difficult to learn, involving 'meridians' and 'acupoints', which give me such a headache to memorize, it's truly magical. For some surgeries, acupuncture can even replace anesthesia. But I have always had a question, since acupoints and meridians do exist, does 'acupoint sealing' from Huaxia martial arts really exist? Your martial arts skills are so good, do you know about acupoint sealing?" Betty asked.

"I'm sorry, Betty, I feel a bit tired," Ge Dongxu didn't answer but instead shrugged apologetically at Betty and then slowly closed his eyes.

At this moment, Ge Dongxu was preoccupied with the safety of his martial nephew Ouyang Murong, and had no interest in discussing these topics with Betty.

Besides, 'acupoint sealing' belongs to the legendary martial arts of Huaxia, and even if he knew how to do it, how could he casually reveal it to Betty.

If he replied honestly, given Betty's character, she wouldn't stop pestering him to demonstrate, and then she would surely go around boasting about it.

Betty, who was a stunning blonde with a fiery figure, generally didn't pay much attention to the numerous male students who hovered around her at the Traditional Chinese Medicine College. Unexpectedly, she was being so actively enthusiastic in chatting with Ge Dongxu today, and yet Ge Dongxu excused himself, claiming to be tired, closed his eyes to rest. This couldn't help but wound Betty, and she pouted in frustration.

However, since Ge Dongxu ignored her, Betty couldn't do anything about it and simply picked up a magazine to read.

The flight from Shanghai to Melbourne took about eleven hours, with a two-hour time difference between the two cities. By the time the plane arrived in Melbourne, it was around nine in the morning.

Since Ge Dongxu had been aloof the entire night, and continued to be so in the morning, Betty's enthusiasm had cooled, and upon disembarking the plane, they merely greeted each other and went their separate ways.

After passing through customs and exiting the airport, Ge Dongxu, with no time to appreciate this unfamiliar city, directly hailed a taxi and headed straight to Alfred Hospital.

Near Alfred Hospital today, there were even more police than yesterday.

That was because the previous evening, Chinese gangs and local Australian gangs had clashed in some bars. And these outbreaks of violence were apparently very much related to the Jade merchant lying in the intensive care unit of Alfred Hospital.

If his condition were to deteriorate, or even if he were to die, a large-scale conflict would likely erupt, which is why the police had to keep a constant watch over the area.
