Great Power

Early the next morning, Zheng Jianguo punched the card and before he walked into the dressing room. Pliny, with two panda eyes floating out from nowhere, looked at him speechlessly and complained: "You want to Ask for leave—"

I took a day off at the beginning of the month. I took a long time yesterday before the middle of the month. Today I still have two hours in the afternoon. Zheng Jianguo also knows that he has taken a lot of leave recently, but these things cannot be avoided: "I don’t want to. But this afternoon, my parents are coming here from China. The 3:50 flight takes just two hours to pick them up."

"Oh, your parents, come from the Republic?"

Pliny helped the glasses on the bridge of his nose, but he didn't know if he was complaining or grumbling, and then he said: "Since knowing that I was admitted to medical school, my parents didn't even remember that there was a son like me—"

"Our traditional concepts and culture are different, just like most states in the United States prohibit corporal punishment of children.

In some states, such as the Cowboy State, you can spank disobedient children after calling the sheriff. I bet you were never beaten when you were a kid.

But in my house, it is normal for children to be beaten by fat, sometimes by their parents, sometimes by their older brothers and sisters.

Sometimes when you are caught by outsiders, if you have the opportunity to live there for a while, you will find that beating a child is a normal phenomenon in the Republic."

Hearing this guy talk about his experience of being kicked out of the house by his parents at the age of 18. It is not the first time that Zheng Jianguo, who has heard of it, tilted his head and said.

Sure enough, the brown eyes in the eyes of the Pliny pandas showed sympathy, but Zheng Jianguo knew that this guy had asked for leave. There must be another way of saying: "Are you going to ask for leave?"

"Well, Zheng, you are very smart."

Pliny's pale complexion flashed with nervousness, and he turned his head and looked around and quickly said, "Well, the next night is my girlfriend's birthday. I am going to leave work early to treat her to dinner.

Can you help me with the 4-hour shift?From 18:00 to 22:00, I should send her home by then."

"The day after tomorrow-okay, no problem."

Looking at the other party’s explanations, Zheng Jianguo was the first time he heard that he still had a girlfriend. He couldn’t help but promised with a smile on his face, and then he said: "You are doing a good job of confidentiality, but I never heard you say it before. ."

"Thank you!"

Then he patted Zheng Jianguo's shoulder with his hands, and Pliny's face was full of excitement and a hint of ruddy appeared: "Otherwise, thank you, Zheng, you are a great help to me."

Just as Pliny’s voice did not fall, Bertha’s figure appeared in the corridor trotting, drove the ostentatious thing with perfect lines to rush to the clock machine, picked up her time card and quickly inserted it into the clock machine. Inside: "Crack."

"Well, it's dangerous~"

Looking at the 7:59 character on the attendance card, Bertha put it down and lifted up her blond hair, tied it with a ribbon biting her red lips, and pulled up the two round and exaggerated high, and looked at him. Walked to the women's locker room next to him: "Zheng, you haven't changed your clothes yet?"

"Oh, it's almost time."

Qi Qi and Pliny retracted their gazes, Zheng Jianguo turned and went into the dressing room, opened the cabinet and quickly changed his clothes. Unexpectedly, at this moment, Bertha's voice came from outside the door: "Zheng, are you in there? Someone is looking for it." you--"

"Oh, I'm still inside—"

The short-sleeved lining coat, tie and shoes were neatly stuffed into the cabinet. Zheng Jianguo picked up the white coat next to him and put it on his body wearing a two-stranded vest. He buttoned the button and went out of the locker room door. He didn't want to wear an open coat. Beside Sha, Jacqueline looked at herself nervously: "Zheng—Doctor, I'm willing to let you check my body fluids and blood."

"Oh--"

Glancing at Bertha, who was looking up, Zheng Jianguo buttoned the button and said sternly: "Have you discussed with your family?"

"No, my brother disagrees, but I know you really care about me. After all, I have never seen a doctor who is willing to pay for patients—"

Jacqueline shook her head. After considering the whole night last night, she was still responsible for the expenses by Zheng Jianguo's sentence, which reminded her of the reason for cooperating with Valerie at that time.

Not long after graduation, Jacqueline has lived in the hospital for so long. Although the expenses are covered by medical insurance, her tuition fees for 4 years of university are still not available, so her attitude is slightly different: It’s taking advantage of you."

"Oh, what are you two discussing?"

Bertha, who had originally wanted to walk, quickly stopped her raised steps, and then a pair of eyes scanned the expressions of the two of them. Of course, she didn't know that it was such a flamboyant question that changed her future life.

Zheng Jianguo swept through Bertha, who was exuding mature feminine charm from head to toe, and he put his hands in his trouser pocket and looked at Jacqueline next to him: "She is the third patient I know of with unknown symptoms. All three of them have symptoms of low immunity for a period of time, which are symptoms of asthma, chest tightness, and swollen lymph nodes that look like a cold.

However, considering that there are also skin rashes spreading over different body surface parts, this situation is different from all the diseases we know, so I suggest adding virological analysis of body fluids and blood to her doctor's order. Yesterday Was rejected by her brother—"

"But now she agrees again~"

Picking up the thin willow eyebrows, Bertha said with a smile at Zheng Jianguo, but quickly turned to look at Jacqueline next to him, and said suspiciously, "You are now 18 years old, right?"

"Well, I am 18 years old and 8 days old."

Jacqueline vigilantly scanned Bertha and nodded. Zheng Jianguo blinked and continued to speak: "Why don't you sign a medical certificate, Dr. Bertha, I will be busy for three days and four days from this afternoon. , Can you help me follow up the results of her examination——"

"This is of course no problem, because from now on, I will be in a 36-hour shift, and after a 12-hour break, I will be in a 24-hour shift. If so, I will only be out of work for 12 hours in the next 3 days—"

Bertha tilted her head, revealing her slender neck and smiling, but after sweeping her gaze on Zheng Jianguo’s self-cultivation white coat, her gaze fell on his not broad shoulders, and she said, full of question marks: "Inside you Is the vest that you wear unique to your family?"

"Well, you are very keen in observation—"

Zheng Jianguo glanced silently and still had innocent mature cheeks. He didn't expect Bertha to ask such a private question, but as his words were not over, he saw her smile and said, "Yesterday the air conditioner It's broken. The doctors and nurses at work have all soaked their backs, only your sweat soaked the back of your white coat. Bernard said that you still wear underwear underneath-the kind that is similar to that of ladies."

"This guy--"

Subconsciously gave a wry smile. Zheng Jianguo did not expect that he could be discussed to this depth, so he spoke to Jacqueline next to him: "Since you agree, then come with me and I will take you to serve. Taiwan issued a medical order for the testing of body fluids and blood——"

"Let me take her, after all, now everyone knows that your girlfriend is Serena—"

Interrupting Zheng Jianguo's words, Bertha gave him a look, then glanced at Jacqueline next to him. The former quickly realized that the test item he was going to start, but it was very inappropriate to bring Jacqueline with him. When I went, I quickly took out the wallet from my pocket, took out three Franklin sheets and handed them to Bertha, "Then I will trouble you, and by the way, help me pay her the test fee."

"No problem~"

Bertha took the money and held it in her hand, and smiled at Jacqueline: "Let's go, boy, you are lucky to meet Dr. Zheng."

"If it weren't for you, my luck would have been good—"

Regarding Bertha who accidentally sabotaged her plan, Jacqueline didn't expect that she would come out, so after looking at Zheng Jianguo next to him with a faint resentment on her face, she followed Bertha to the service desk.

"When male doctors face female patients, they must have female medical staff present. I almost forgot this."

This thought flashed in his mind, and Zheng Jianguo, who was awake in his heart, felt that Bertha was not only beautiful, but also not very slow.

Seeing the two men stopped at the service desk, Zheng Jianguo just didn’t know whether she would be willing to help follow up the research after the discovery of the HIV virus, otherwise he would have to give the glory of this co-discoverer to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Celia is here.

But Zheng Jianguo has prepared Celia for the name of the little blue pill.

When Zheng Jianguo wanted to find out the HIV virus, Jacqueline was not worried about her symptoms. This is not to say that she neglected to pay attention to the HIV virus because of her tuition.

The main reason is that her brother Barry had a rash three years ago. So considering that Barry has not had a big problem in the past three years, even if there is a problem in Jacqueline’s perception, it is not What will be the big problem.

What virus can lie in the human body for three years?

Perhaps there are many viruses with this incubation period, such as the most famous rabies virus. The term rabies comes from one of the oldest languages ​​in the world-Sanskrit, Rabbahs, which means "rage".

The earliest record of rabies can even be traced back to 2300 BC. However, the vaccine was developed more than a hundred years ago, and Jacqueline confirmed that she had not been bitten by a dog and the symptoms were different. , She didn't know much about this virus in her mind.

Until the night three days later, when Jacqueline was lying on the hospital bed looking at the rash with only a few traces on her body, preparing to be discharged from the hospital for the imminent recovery, Zheng Jianguo took Bertha and knocked on her ward door: " Hi, Jacqueline, how do you feel?"

"I feel pretty good—"

In response to Zheng Jianguo’s gaze, Jacqueline said with her white arms exposed, pointing at the rash that had faded on it, and said with a relaxed expression: "The rash will disappear soon, and I plan to leave the hospital the day after tomorrow. Did the check result come out?"

"Just came out. We detected something in your body fluids and blood, but we still can't confirm what these things are—"

Zheng Jianguo looked at Jacqueline with a dignified expression. The latter looked at him in disbelief: "You can't confirm what it is? What does this mean?"

"That is, your blood did not find micron-sized bacteria in routine virological analysis. However, after I requested the use of a 200,000-fold electron microscope that can detect nano-levels, it detected a size of about 120 nanometers——

Considering that the smallest bacteria are also in the micron level, according to this classification, only a single virus can be so small. Well, I feel that this is a virus, but there is no way to confirm it, and follow-up continuous research is needed."

Scratching his chin, Zheng Jianguo said and glanced at Bertha next to him. The latter couldn’t help but nod quickly and said: “The results under the microscope alone are not enough to prove that it is in your blood, because the hospital The researcher in the laboratory is very unreliable. Such a small thing may just be contaminated, so we found a laboratory and wanted to take some more of your blood for culture--"

"That way you won't have to trouble you anymore, after all, you are going to be discharged from the hospital now."

Zheng Jianguo subconsciously took Bertha's words and said, but did not want Jacqueline to look at her directly: "Doctor Bertha, can you avoid it?"

"Huh? Avoid it?"

Bertha looked at Zheng Jianguo and asked, Jacqueline nodded and said: "Yes, I know that your hospital does not allow male doctors and female patients to be in the same room alone, so you can go to the door and watch me and Zheng. The doctor will do it. If you go out, I promise to cooperate with you to take blood to cultivate that virus—"

"Oh, okay."

Bertha looked at Zheng Jianguo again, put her hand in her pocket and winked at him, then turned around and walked out of the door of the ward, watching the two from the glass, but she did not expect to follow Jacqueline After saying something, he saw that Zheng Jianguo was shocked instantly.

However, Jacqueline didn't stop sitting on the hospital bed, constantly talking to Zheng Jianguo, but the latter only said something accidentally, and saw that his face was once again filled with confusion.

The next moment, Zheng Jianguo beckoned from inside the room, Bertha quickly opened the door and entered the ward after taking out his hand, watching that both of them were silent, and said: "Are you finished?"

"After the talk, Jacqueline will cooperate with us to take the blood and promise to keep the other doctors secret—"

Zheng Jianguo frowned and said that Bertha was immediately full of joy, but she was also stunned by her smile, but when she thought of the cooperation between the two, she started to fight. Spiritually said: "Bertha, I hope you haven't forgotten the cell culture course in the medical school."

"Don't worry about this, even if you learn it again, I will definitely cultivate it."

Bertha quickly took out four blood collection devices from her pocket, and said when Jacqueline’s fingertips and toes took them separately, Zheng Jianguo spoke but did not answer her, but changed her words: "After you take it, first Wait for me outside the door, one minute."

"Oh, good."

Looking at Jacqueline again, Bertha quickly took the blood and used a sterile cotton ball to wrap her up. Then she left the ward with the blood-filled bottle, but didn’t want Zheng Jianguo to be almost a dozen after she closed the door. Seconds later, he put something in his inner pocket and left the ward, as if he was relieved and said, "Well, let's go to the laboratory of the digestion center—"
