Chapter 1108: Little Key in Gold and Silver
Susanna blushed.
She had indeed been staring at Gu Qiqi just now. Those who didn’t know better would have thought that she was studying Gu Qiqi. She was even looking at Gu Qiqi’s veins through her fair skin. In reality, she had the expression of a fangirl who wished she could see through her idol.
With a flushed face, Susanna raised her gla.s.s to toast Gu Qiqi. “Doctor Gu, I really can’t bear to leave the empire, much less… you! If only you were willing to be a guest in our Country M. Our Country M is very free, and we have a lot of research funds. My father’s laboratory is also the world’s top medical laboratory. Do you want to consider it?”
Before Gu Qiqi could answer.
The little boy was the first to react. He said warily, “That won’t do! Big Sister wants to be with me. I won’t allow you to kidnap her!”
Gu Qiqi smiled knowingly.
This little guy was becoming more and more domineering like his father.
Won’t allow…
Well, these words were probably lethal.
As expected, Susanna was depressed. “Then I can bring you along. I like you a lot too.”
The little packrat said sternly, “That won’t do. We don’t like to live in Country M!”
Susannah was speechless.
Was this child really only three years old? Were they sure?
Gu Qiqi smiled and stroked the little packrat’s hair. She did not joke around with Susanna anymore. Instead, she asked Professor Brown, “Professor, you previously said in your email that you had learned some news about my brother’s eye disease. I want to ask what medicine it is.”
Professor Brown took a sip of wine and stroked his beard. “It’s a long story. Actually, I don’t know what medicine it is…”
Gu Qiqi’s eyes darkened.
She was a little disappointed that her greatest goal for this trip was not accomplished.
However, in the next second, Professor Brown said slowly, “However, I just received a precious key two days ago. It might be helpful to your brother.”
“What is it?” After experiencing disappointment, Gu Qiqi was obviously not that interested this time. She only asked out of politeness.
Professor Brown took out a small gold and silver key from his pocket. “This key is actually a unique admission ticket. It’s an invitation to a gathering with the Great Pharmacist Guild. The members are the top pharmacists in the world.”
“Great Pharmacist Guild? Why haven’t I heard of it?” Gu Qiqi frowned.
“Ordinary people won’t be able to come into contact with it at all.” Professor Brown smiled slightly. “Even if you win the World Medical Tournament, it’s not worth mentioning in the eyes of the Great Pharmacist Guild. That’s because the World Medical Tournament is just a clumsy game for mortals, and they’re great pharmacists who hide from the world and don’t show their faces easily.”
What? She’s just a mortal?
In this world, there were still humans who were above mortals like them?
Gu Qiqi was fl.u.s.tered.
However, Professor Brown continued, “This year, the Great Pharmacist Guild will be held on Ghost Island in the South Pacific. With this key, you’ll be qualified to enter the island and attend the gatherings of those top-notch pharmacists. This key isn’t that precious. On average, a country can only get one key every hundred years.”
A gathering of top pharmacists. Keys. Ghost Island.
These were things that Gu Qiqi had never heard of in her previous life.
In her previous life, she had thought that the World Medical Tournament was already a world-cla.s.s medical gathering.
Unexpectedly, there was also a Great Pharmacist Guild that treated the World Medical Tournament as a child’s play.
Moreover, the invitations were not sent annually. They were only given a chance to a top medicine master of a country every hundred years!
How awesome was this Great Pharmacist Guild?!
