Chapter 458 Unknown Disease

The first day the clinic opened was not peaceful.

The emergence of special patients puts the entire private clinic at risk.

Zhu Jue stood in the corridor, instructing the doctors and nurses to take action. According to the normal procedure, diagnosis must be made first and then the right medicine should be prescribed.

"Dark spots, non-skin disease, the plaques on the right arm are still expanding, and the condition is getting worse. No corresponding disease can be found. Zhu Jue, we can't handle this patient and must send him out immediately!"

Suzi stood behind him, constantly scanning the patient's condition. While feeding the information back to Zhu Jue, her eyebrows gradually began to move closer to the center of her eyebrows. Finally, she raised her hand to grab the latter's elbow. She didn't even care about sending a message and just whispered. said,

"Oops, it might be some kind of mutated germ. We don't rule out the possibility of infectious disease. Find a way to isolate it quickly!"

"Stop! Get them all back!"

Hearing that it might be an infectious disease, Zhu Jue's originally indifferent expression immediately changed. He stepped forward and pressed the doctor who was about to push the patient to the quarantine room by the shoulders and pulled him behind him, and then shouted,

"Get the protective mask immediately and don't get close to the patient. Lin, turn on the air circulation system in the clinic and pay attention to air purification. Suzi, contact the Xiacheng District Epidemic Prevention Center immediately, report the situation and ask them to send a car!"

Even if it is only possible, mutated infectious diseases are still no joke.

Although the medical technology of this era has conquered terminal diseases in the past, changes in the environment have also given rise to new terminal diseases.

Virus mutations caused by the proliferation of chemical products can kill a large number of civilians every year. Zhu Jue has to worry about illnesses that even Suzi doesn't know the source of.

Anyone who can work in a clinic will not be ignorant of medical knowledge. As soon as Zhu Jue finished speaking, the two nurses who were closer to the patient and had just given him basic treatment immediately turned pale and stood there blankly.

However, the couple who sent the young man over were still standing beside him, looking at the panicked crowd with some confusion.

"What are you doing standing still? Get moving!"

He pushed the two nurses aside and yelled, "In this situation, no matter how depressed he was, Zhu Jue would never leave the patient in the clinic hall like this."

He has a special constitution, and human viruses may not be able to do anything to him. It doesn't matter that Suzi is a prosthetic, but everyone else in the clinic is an ordinary person!

The left hand wearing the jade ring was gently held, and a breeze immediately circulated in the clinic, blowing back the airflow around the patient.

If he hadn't acted too special in front of everyone, Zhu Jue would even have the heart to freeze the patient temporarily.

"I pushed him to the intensive care unit first, which is empty now."

Before Zhu Jue could step forward, Suzi rushed forward and grabbed the cart where the patient was lying, and dragged it to the intensive care unit without saying a word. Everyone along the way stood against the wall like a god avoiding the plague, for fear of being contaminated.

"Mr. Hannibal, the air circulation system in the clinic has been turned on. This is a protective mask."

Lin, who ran out of the main control room, handed out protective masks while observing the man standing in the middle of the corridor.

"I know, you should step back. Don't panic when you enter the office. It's just a possibility. Now everyone enter the quarantine room for a full body check."

The patient was taken away. As the owner of the clinic, Zhu Jue naturally had to appease the employees and said without looking back.

Lin did not forget her mission. This emergency was the best time to test a person.

Excellent professionalism, this was Lin's first impression of Hannibal Lecter.

It was only a preliminary judgment that the other party might have some kind of infectious disease, otherwise it would not be possible to report it to the epidemic prevention center immediately.

So he did work as a doctor in the past, and his level was not low.

Calm and not surprised by changes.

This is the second impression.

Even in this situation, there was still not much panic on his face. Not only did he not evacuate immediately, but he actively stepped forward to direct and stabilize the situation. At a glance, you could tell that he was someone who had worked on the front line.

This should be an experienced and responsible "old doctor".

Lin thought so.

"Doctor, how is my son? Is his illness serious?"

The patient's family members, who saw all the reactions of the clinic staff, couldn't help but come up to ask about the condition.

"You guys... um, when did he start showing these symptoms?"

Zhu Jue, who was in a irritable mood, subconsciously wanted to curse. When the words came to his lips, he saw the middle-aged woman in front of him with an anxious face and red eyes. He opened his mouth and endured it.

Instead of complaining at this time, it is better to confirm the patient's condition first.

"Just now, he said he felt unwell after eating and wanted to go back to his room. Not long after, dark spots started to appear on his body. We don't know what happened. Will he be okay?"

"You said after dinner, it should be lunch. What time did you eat?"

Zhu Jue looked down at his watch, it was 12:15, and then asked,

"What to eat?"

"Around 11:30, I don't remember clearly, but it should be around this time. It was just ordinary home-cooked food, just like usual."

The ugly-faced middle-aged man next to him took over the conversation. The doctor had not given them a response about his son's condition for a long time, which made him vaguely aware of something.

"Not even an hour."

The attack occurred so quickly, Zhu Jue became increasingly pessimistic about the situation, but his face remained calm as he continued,

"I suspect it is food poisoning or some other acute illness. We have contacted the hospital and they should come and deal with it right away."

The epidemic prevention center was not mentioned, but a hospital was used instead. Zhu Jue could only comfort the patient's parents for the time being.

Fortunately, the people at the epidemic prevention center did not disappoint Zhu Jue. Just ten minutes later, the unique rescue sound effects of the epidemic prevention center rang outside the clinic.

Several epidemic prevention personnel wearing full-body protective clothing almost rushed in from the door.

As the footsteps moved forward, rainwater fell on the floor of the clinic, and soon there were a series of dirty marks.

"Who's in charge here!"

The man at the front shouted, his voice a little muffled when it came out through the mask.

"I'm the owner of the clinic."

Zhu Jue raised his hand and said.

"Where is the patient?"

"Inside in the intensive care unit, there's no one else in the room except him."

"Intensive Care Unit, go and get the people out!"

He raised his hand and pointed in the direction of the corridor, turned around and yelled at a few subordinates, then took a step forward, dragged Zhu Jue aside, and then said,

"You have done a good job. The patient you discovered is suffering from a serious infectious disease, but it has not been officially announced yet. Information disclosure is strictly prohibited. You just tell your employees that it is a rare case. Do you understand what I mean?"

"I understand, for the sake of social impact, but my employees were here just now. Can you reveal some symptoms or data to me so that I can check them."

Zhu Jue has no interest in infectious diseases at all. What he wants now is to ensure that there are no problems with the personnel in the clinic.

"Don't worry. Theoretically, as long as you don't touch his blood, you won't be infected. There will be inspectors from the epidemic prevention center to help you check your body later. You just need to cooperate."

After finishing speaking, without waiting for Zhu Jue's reply, he turned around and walked out with his subordinates who had already pushed the patient out, and said at the same time,

"Follow up the patient's family, you have to accompany the patient!"

The door of the clinic was open, and it was raining heavily outside.

Zhu Jue stood behind and watched the somewhat panicked couple staggering after them, remaining silent.

Not long after, another group of people from the epidemic prevention center arrived, and just as the person just said, they conducted a second check on everyone in the clinic.

No one was infected, most people were just frightened.

The trial operation would definitely not be able to continue in this state, so Zhu Jue simply gave everyone a holiday and would still receive today's salary.

After everyone left one after another, only Zhu Jue and Suzi were left in the entire clinic.

"I encountered this kind of thing on the first day of trial operation. Is it good luck or bad luck?"

Standing at the door of the office, operating the cleaning robot to clean the rainwater and footprints in the hall and corridor, Zhu Jue complained helplessly as he watched the wind chimes jumping up and down around the robot.

"It depends on where you look at it. If you really want to run a clinic, this should be said to be unlucky, but you are not. Just now you were complaining about being bored in the office. Special patients came to the door immediately, and today's business ended immediately, so Is this considered lucky?"

Suzi held the spray paint in his hand and replenished the wall paint that had been scratched off by the cart just now. As if thinking of something, he turned around and said,

"I checked the illness of the man just now using the equipment provided by our clinic when he was in the intensive care unit. Do you want to know the results?"

"Um?"

"The instruments show that his body is collapsing, not the immune system, but the entire flesh and blood, meridians and even bones are collapsing!"

Recalling the data displayed on the instrument at that time, Suzi subconsciously glanced at the cart next to him, raised his hand and made a gesture of fireworks.

"Actually, it was beyond the scope of a disease. It was more like someone detonating a bomb inside his body, except that the explosion process was slowed down dozens of times."

"It seems that it is not an ordinary disease. I heard from his parents that it only took an hour from the onset of the disease to the time he was sent to our clinic. In such a short period of time, his body could no longer bear it and began to collapse. Do you think the epidemic prevention can save him?" ?"

Zhu Jue's understanding of medicine is limited to some basic medical manuals. After all, he has killed many people, and he can probably count the number of people he has saved on his fingers.

"I'm afraid not. I even suspect that the epidemic prevention center doesn't understand this disease at all."

"How to say?"

"Due to my special health, in order to prevent my identity from being exposed, I hacked into the detectors of the second batch of people who came to check our bodies at the epidemic prevention center and modified the data in advance, so I saw their testing items. Specifically, their testing process It’s the same process as when we test whether a patient has a cold or fever!”

Su Zi casually snapped her fingers, and two sets of data immediately appeared on the remote control of the cleaning robot in Zhu Jue's hand. Nothing is more convincing than this.

"I'm a little curious why they go to all the trouble and just use this method to comfort us?"

"No, if they don't know how to detect whether we are infected, they will not let us move around so freely, and they deliberately use this method to make us feel at ease."

Zhu Jue denied Suzi's guess. In his opinion, there was only one possibility for the people at the epidemic prevention center to do this.

"No wonder he didn't ask about other people's conditions from beginning to end. If my guess is correct, they wanted to use this method to make us think that the patient had an infectious disease, and they rushed so quickly after getting the news. This is enough to show that they have actually received information about patients who need to pay attention to this phenomenon."

"The epidemic prevention place is covering up something!"

Suzi's answer was resolute.
