As soon as Shen Nian and Lu Cheng entered the next car, they saw a crowd gathered in the middle. It was obvious that was where the incident had occurred.
"What happened here?"
Shen Nian asked a nearby passenger as she and Lu Cheng made their way forward.
A passenger in the car who had seen what happened heard Shen Nian's question and eagerly explained.
"An elderly man over there seems to have suddenly fallen ill and collapsed. Oh, it's just awful. We're on a train, after all. What are we going to do if it's serious?"
Upon hearing that an elderly man had collapsed, Shen Nian and Lu Cheng quickened their pace. Soon, they reached the circle of people surrounding the patient.
The person lying on the floor was surely the sick old man the passenger had just mentioned. His eyes were shut tight, his brow was furrowed, his face was deathly pale, and his lips had a purplish tint, making for a frightening sight.
