Great Medical System in a Veterinarian

Chapter 663 282: Walking Paper of District One, Brother Xiaohai's Rare Disease, Dr. Zhang's Subtle Regret

After all, there are quite a few medical professionals here.

"Xiaochuan, why do I feel like this is a parasitic infection like myiasis?"

Ji Chunming spoke up from the side, because animals can also contract this disease.

"Professor Ji, why don't we take a look together?"

Zhang Lingchuan invited.

Actually, veterinarians treat animals and humans are animals too.

So sometimes there is a connection; the only difference is veterinarians are a bit rough, while physicians are more refined.

"Alright, then I'll accompany you, Xiaochuan, to have a look."

Ji Chunming stood up with a smile.

The banquet was also coming to an end at this time.

"Son, don't be afraid. Dr. Zhang is a very skilled doctor; he will definitely find a way to diagnose your illness, and then Mom and Dad will take you to a big hospital for treatment."

Seeing the two approach, Jia Hongzhou spoke to his son.

"Dr. Zhang, Professor Ji, the maggots on my son's head mainly crawl out of these white-spotted areas. We heard that massages can relieve symptoms, so we took him for a massage today, but when the masseur touched these white spots, the child suddenly had another seizure; it's so bizarre!"

Mo Lihua explained.

She also described what happened at the massage therapy center.

"Could he be possessed by evil spirits?"

"Honestly, his eyes are vacant, lacking any vitality, as if he were possessed by a Corpse Witch."

There were already many people at the banquet.

Moreover, since they heard about a child with maggots on his head, almost everyone from Yunshan Village came to see.

Even some women taking care of their children at home joined in the commotion.

Although they belong to the same village.

Yuanshan Village has several communities.

Communities are not connected, and if someone deliberately conceals information, it is normal not to know.

To put it simply.

Even in a residential area where people are only half an hour apart, you can't know everything about every household.

Let alone communities in a village where the distance is over an hour by car.

Unless you deliberately investigate, you wouldn't know anything.

Hearing these strange symptoms, some people directly suspected possession.

Someone even said the child lacks vitality and is dull, with maggots, possibly parasitized by refined Corpse Witches.

In remote areas, legends of ghosts and monsters are still rampant; Corpse Witch is one such legend.

Rumor has it that once parasitized by them, a person loses vitality and maggots fall off, quite similar to this situation!

"Dr. Zhang, Professor Fan, have you found anything?"

Secretary Jia, Village Chief Fan, and Director Rong curiously inquired.

Especially Village Chief Fan and Director Rong; hearing claims of possession was truly unnerving.

If this keeps up, even the live broadcast will take a dark turn.

"This is rather strange. Normally, myiasis would have wounds and require certain conditions, but this child's head has no wounds at all, not resembling parasitism. Xiaochuan, what do you think?"

Ji Chunming carefully examined again.

What he found was entirely different from what he had envisaged.

It wasn't a parasitic infection at all.

"Come, child, let me feel your pulse."

Zhang Lingchuan felt everyone's eyes on him and calmly reached out, grasping the thin, almost reflective dark arm.

The child was very thin.

The whole person indeed looked dull.

There were several white spots on the top of his head.

It was said that these maggots crawled out from this place.

Initially, before seeing the child, he had the same judgment as Professor Ji.

Likely a parasitic infection.

Most probably myiasis or something similar.

Even when he first saw them coming over with their parents on a bike, there was a yellow tag on the child's head, and he still felt it matched his conjecture.

But after seeing the top of the head, he thought it was simply impossible.

If there were maggots on the head, how could there be no wounds at all, even if healed not this fast.

Moreover, why does it strike when touched, while the top only has a few white spots?

There hasn't been such a bizarre disease reported, if it truly exists, it feels like a walking wonder, bringing special naming rights like 'Xiaoma Disease'.

So Zhang Lingchuan first used X-ray Eye.

Then performed a Precise Scan.

Now he employed ECG Finger.

He noticed when he gripped the child's hand, Brother Xiaohai's heart rate sped up slightly, seemed slightly anxious, but soon settled down.

[System scan complete.]

The scan results were quickly forthcoming.

Just as he expected, he gently released Jia Xiaoma's hand.

"There's something going on."

"Judging by his expression, Dr. Zhang must know the answer."

In the live broadcast room.

Old fans' eyes lit up.

Song Wanqing's tense eyes also slightly relaxed.

Indeed, this was Teacher Zhang's hallmark confidence.

Meaning he's likely just as netizens said, fully assured.

"Dr. Zhang, does our child have some hidden disease in his body?"

At this moment, Mo Lihua asked when she saw Zhang Lingchuan let go of her son's hand.

"There is indeed an underlying disease."

Zhang Lingchuan nodded.

"So it is! I said the hospital definitely didn't find it!"

The child's parents, hearing this, suddenly felt relieved.

"What hidden disease?"

"Could it be a new rare disease type?"

"No idea, let's wait for Dr. Zhang to reveal the answer!"

...

At that moment, netizens were just as surprised, wondering what kind of disease this could be if it's not myiasis or parasitic infection.

"Dr. Zhang, what's wrong with my grandson exactly? Why is there maggots growing from his head?"

He Meixiang quickly asked.

They were truly worried sick over this child.

"You said earlier that when the child was in the massage therapy room there were no maggots appearing from the head, correct?"

Zhang Lingchuan asked.

"Yes, the child was only convulsing, no maggots appeared."

The child's mother replied.

"Actually, these white spots on the child's head are merely simple pityriasis alba, absolutely impossible for bugs to crawl out, and why he convulsed when you mentioned CT scan is because he knows there are no maggots in his brain."

Zhang Lingchuan addressed.

"Dr. Zhang, what do you mean by this?"

"You're saying our child is pretending?"

The couple's eyes widened.

"Yes, there's a good chance he's pretending."

Zhang Lingchuan nodded.

"That's impossible, if it were truly pretend, how can it be so convincingly!"

"Exactly, the convulsions look nothing like an act."

"Isn't it so! Can the child act this well?"

"Dr. Zhang, I've actually seen Xiaoma's convulsions too, it feels like something a child couldn't fake, are we misjudging?"

Representatives from Shishang Village were also present.

They all expressed disbelief.

Even Secretary Jia chimed in.

Thinking maybe the judgment was wrong.

"Sigh... the convulsions you mentioned indeed aren't pretending, those are the child's real illness."

Zhang Lingchuan spoke, his tone deepened with a hint of regret.
