Chapter 166 Catherine's Approach
After artemisinin was extracted, the malaria in the royal capital was quickly controlled.
As Chen Luo expected, although malaria is serious, it is extremely regional and will not have a large-scale outbreak in most places.
Chen Luo and Isabella went to see Alice. With the special medicine, Alice recovered well and could go to school in two days.
Alice leaned on the bed, her face was much rosy than the previous two days ago. She looked at Chen Luo and said gratefully: "Thank you, classmate Blair. Dr. Catherine said, you discovered the method to treat the plague. You have saved me twice."
Chen Luo smiled and said, "We are friends, Alice is polite."
Alice looked at him and suddenly said, "Class Blair, can you go out? Isabella and I have something to say."
Chen Luo glanced at them, then nodded, turned around and walked out of Alice's room.
Isabella looked at Alice suspiciously and asked, "What are you going to say?"
Alice's eyes moved from the door and asked, "You haven't dated Blair yet?"
The same situation, Isabella had already experienced it when she was in San Donas. She snorted and said, "No, you want to pursue Blair, go chase it yourself, see if he will promise you..."
"I lost to you when I was in San Donas." Alice shook her head, and a look of regret appeared in her eyes, and she said, "I know that from that time on, Blair and I would not be able to do so."
Isabella wondered, "What do you want to say?"
"Let's make peace." Alice looked at her and said, "I won't compete with you for Blair in the future, and don't treat me as an enemy."
Isabella blushed and blurted out: "Who wants to compete with you for Blair, who treats you as an enemy..."
Alice looked at her, sighed softly, and said, "I know why I lost to you..."
Isabella curiously said, "Why?"
Seeing Alice looking at her eyes, she realized something, immediately stood up and said, "I don't want to know, you should take good care of your illness, I'm going back..."
On the way home, Chen Luo turned to look at Isabella and asked casually: "What did you say when I was not here just now?"
Isabella shook her head decisively and said, "Nothing."
They must have said something important to spend on themselves. Although Chen Luo was curious, he didn't ask too much. It was probably a girl's private words.
Alice is fine, and Chen Luo has nothing to worry about.
How to get close to Catherine gave him a headache.
One is the chief physician of the royal family, and the other is a student of the Medical College of Wangdu Magic College. Under normal circumstances, it is impossible for the two of them to have frequent intersections. Chen Luo can't pretend to be sick every day to go to her clinic. This way, it is easy for her to think that she has any other intentions for her.
Besides, Chen Luo doesn’t know how to explain when he goes to Katherine, Isabella and Teacher Britney every day.
Two beauties, one big and one young, are they not gentle and intellectual enough in the family? Or Is it that Isabella is not young and lively enough? He actually goes to see women outside every day, and he doesn't take them seriously.
Besides, Dr. Catherine is already twenty-six years old. Although she is not old at this age, she is four years older than Teacher Britney and nine years older than Chen Luo.
The age gap, career gap, and status gap make the two destined to have no topics to talk about except medicine.
Chen Luo has never studied medicine, but he is good at biology. With his knowledge accumulation of hundreds or thousands of years ahead, under the guise of discussing medicine, he may not be unable to get close to her.
Thinking of Catherine, when Isabella returned home, when she saw Catherine standing in the yard, Chen Luo almost thought he had hallucinations.
"Class Blair, you're back..." Catherine walked up with a smile and said, "I'm here to thank you on behalf of the Medical Association."
Chen Luo said: "No need to thank you, that's what the doctor should do."
Kather looked at him and asked, "Blair has eliminated the plague and saved the capital. The Medical Association wants to invite Blair to become a director. I wonder if Blair is willing?"
Chen Luo nodded without thinking for long, and said, "I do."
The Medical Association Directors, like the Mathematics Association and the Magic Association, are leaders in the association.
A year ago, Chen Luo would definitely refuse without hesitation, but now his ideas have changed.
The Divine Greed Continent is a world where the strong prey on the weak. If you want to gain a foothold here, in addition to having super strength, you must also have powerful forces behind it.
Just a mathematical association cannot become Chen Luo’s strong backing. Since he learned about the wizard, Chen Luo has never forgotten that he is also a heresy in the eyes of the four temples.
Chen Luo didn't know if there was a day when he needed to face the whole world. Before that, what he had to do was to improve his strength and expand his power.
"The president will be very happy when he knows it." Catherine smiled at him and said, "We have checked the association's books. The malaria mentioned by Blair often breaks out in some southern countries. It is called the "Scythe of Death". It harvests countless lives every year. The president wants to inform those countries of the treatment of this disease..."
"Yes." Chen Luo did not hesitate about this. Malaria is a global disease, and artemisinin does not belong to him alone. If it were something else, Chen Luo might even sell it through patents, but it is related to the lives of millions of people. He could not make peace with this money.
Catherine thought for a while and said, "This kind of drug was invented by Blair. The association will sell it to medical associations in other countries through sale. All the proceeds will be transferred to Blair..."
Chen Luo said: "I didn't invent this, it's..."
Catherine smiled, interrupted him, and said, "This disease is a terminal illness throughout the continent. If a doctor discovered its treatment, it would have been famous throughout the continent. His Highness Christine might not know this..."
It seems that the story he made up not only did not deceive Christine, but also Katherine.
Chen Luo was too lazy to make up new reasons and said: "It's not necessary to sell it. Provide it to countries suffering from malaria for free. It does not belong to me, it should belong to all mankind."
Katherine lowered her head, remained silent for a moment, and said, "I am just a scholar, but Blair is a real doctor."
In the Continent of Divine Greed, all doctors are medical scholars, but not all medical scholars are doctors.
At this moment, Catherine developed a strong admiration for this young man who was nearly ten years younger than her.
The messenger sent by the priest made her approach Blair and made friends with him. Treating illness was Catherine's strength, but letting her make friends with such a teenager made her feel embarrassed and didn't know how to do it...
At this moment, she no longer knew what she should say. She wanted to be friends with Blair but could not arouse his suspicion, so she could only wait for it to be said later.
Similarly, Chen Luo and Isabella can flirt with each other all day, discuss mathematics and magic with Teacher Britney, and they won’t be tired even if they have three days and three nights…
But when facing Catherine, she didn't know what topic to talk about.
But the opportunity cannot be missed. Who knows if she let her go this time and when will she see you next time...
Catherine stood up, smiled at Chen Luo, and said, "Student Blair, I'll go back first."
This time she was asked to leave, and it would be difficult to find another opportunity next time. Chen Luo almost subconsciously said: "I've come here, so why don't Dr. Catherine leave after dinner?"
