Masterful Miracle Doctor

Chapter 603: Bonus Diagnosis (Thanks to the Alliance Leader Yun Shou Wu Lian Yi Gen for the reward)



On Sunday morning, Lin Jie went to the comprehensive laboratory building of the Medical College to check on the condition of the experimental monkeys.

The large room didn't have much of a smell, except for the occasional "squeak, squeak" of monkey calls. Watching the few monkeys in the iron cage still quite active, Lin Jie should have been satisfied.

However, compared to the few monkeys he originally remembered, these five were noticeably larger in size.

Although Lin Jie regularly checks the observation and health reports of the experimental monkeys sent by students via email and is aware that the monkeys' weight is gradually increasing.

But seeing the flabby flesh and bellies on the monkeys firsthand was somewhat unbearable for him.

"Are you feeding them like pigs to fatten them up?" Lin Jie scolded with a darkened face.

Both Xiao Ganghao and Yan Beichen, responsible for looking after the experimental monkeys today, were so startled they shrank back a bit.

Yan Beichen even took a small step back, pushing Xiao Ganghao to the front.

"Teacher, these little guys get daily fruit, and we occasionally feed them some corn kernels, raw peanuts, walnuts, and mealworms."

Xiao Ganghao explained helplessly, "They're confined in small cages with not enough exercise every day, and they never lack food, so naturally, they gain weight."

"For more than half a month, we've been consciously reducing their diet."

Lin Jie snorted and said, "It's still not enough. From today onward, impose strict feeding times and quantities to control their weight."

"I need optimal experimental results, understand?"

"Understood, teacher." Xiao Ganghao and Yan Beichen replied softly in unison.

Yan Beichen quietly asked, "Teacher, according to schedule, they have just over a month left for that."

"Is it really necessary to make them diet? In this month, how much more weight can they gain? The impact on the experimental results should be quite negligible."

"Teacher, can't we let them enjoy happily for once?"

Lin Jie glanced at her and asked, "Do you sympathize with them?"

Yan Beichen shook her head and said, "A little, just feel they're quite pitiful."

She sighed, "These monkeys had their fate sealed at birth. One day, they will die for some experiment."

Lin Jie advised, "Yan Beichen, there's no need for me to elaborate on the greater good. You understand, for the progress of human medicine, some sacrifices are necessary and must happen."

"Do you know how many lab mice and other test animals like rabbits are transported from the Medical College's animal breeding base every week?"

Without waiting for their response, he continued, "As far as I know, the total number of various test animals can be about three to four hundred. During large-scale research projects, the number can rise to thousands, which is normal."

"Since you've chosen the medical path, you must harden your heart, be a bit ruthless."

"Teacher, I understand, I do!"

Yan Beichen softly explained, "During anatomy and physiology lab classes, I never hesitated with lab animals."

"But with these few monkeys, having been with them for a long time, there's a bit of reluctance..."

Lin Jie reminded, "Then you must prepare yourselves mentally; you'll personally see them off."

"Moreover, to make full use of them, I will also arrange some not-very-difficult surgeries like fracture repair, wound suturing, and organ removal for you to practice."

Upon hearing this, Yan Beichen's expression turned somewhat sad.

Xiao Ganghao also looked sympathetically at the monkeys in the cage, unaware of their doomed fate.

Seeing their reaction, Lin Jie shook his head lightly and asked, "Or, Yan Beichen, would you prefer to practice surgery on human patients?"

Yan Beichen was startled and quickly assured, "Teacher, I will definitely adjust my mindset and will surely complete the practice surgeries you assign."

"I hope so!"

Lin Jie asked further about the more detailed condition of the experimental monkeys and received satisfactory answers, which made him quite pleased with the students' dedication.

Finally, Lin Jie asked Yan Beichen, "Is there any new information about Lin Xiaoxiao?"

Yan Beichen seriously said, "According to feedback from Lin Xiaoxiao's parents, aside from Xiaoxiao occasionally falling, everything else is normal, with no new significant symptoms observed."

Lin Jie warned, "There's more than a month left. Remind Lin Xiaoxiao's parents to be careful and prevent any accidents during this time."

"Yes, teacher!" Yan Beichen replied earnestly.

Lin Jie then personally checked the monkeys one by one and, finding no abnormalities, prepared to leave the room. However, Xiao Ganghao followed him out.

"Do you have something to say?"

Xiao Ganghao hummed twice, shyly saying, "My mother's recovery is good. She plans to be discharged next Wednesday or Thursday."

"Well... Mother wants to hold a simple engagement ceremony once she's discharged to set things between me and Zou Manqing."

Lin Jie laughed, "That's great news!"

"So, you're asking for leave? I approve. While study is important, I'm not unfeeling towards personal matters."

"Thank you, Teacher!"

Xiao Ganghao expressed his gratitude and then said, "In addition to requesting leave, I would also like to ask you, Teacher, to officiate our wedding!"

"Officiate the wedding?"

Lin Jie was momentarily stunned, then instinctively shook his head to refuse.

"The wedding officiant is usually an elder, someone of high moral standing."

"Moreover, I'm much younger than you. Even Zou Manqing is two or three years older than me, so I'm not suitable. You should ask someone else."

Xiao Ganghao hurriedly pleaded, "Teacher, besides elders, the officiant can also be a leader. You are my teacher, and in terms of identity and status, there's no issue."

"I've also consulted my uncle before, and he also said that inviting you as the officiant is very fitting."

"Teacher, please agree!"

Seeing his sincerity, Lin Jie didn't refuse any further and, with some interest, agreed to his request…

He cheerfully drove home, only to discover that there were three guests at his place.

Old Madam Ma, along with a couple around forty years of age.

This couple, the man was steady, neither bald nor big-bellied, and the woman was graceful and beautiful—they made a well-matched pair.

"Expert Lin..."

Old Madam Ma pointed to the couple and said, "This is my second son, Ma Dewei, and his wife, Su Rui. We specifically came to express our gratitude to you."

The couple both slightly bowed to Lin Jie.

Ma Dewei gratefully said, "Expert Lin, for so many years, our son's illness has been a lingering worry for my wife and me, something we've always been concerned about."

"Now that you've diagnosed our son's condition in one go, recovery is in sight. Thank you, we are truly grateful to you."

Saying this, Ma Dewei took out an envelope and gently placed it on the coffee table, smiling, "This is a small token from us. We hope, Expert Lin, you won't mind and will kindly accept it."

Lin Jie courteously declined a few times, finally "reluctantly" letting Zhang Xiaoxiao accept it.

During this refusal, Ma Dewei and his wife were very enthusiastic and sincere.

Lin Jie noticed that Old Madam Ma's expression, however, was somewhat indifferent, and she didn't say much.

He speculated that Old Madam Ma might have already known his decision from Xie Xingze, which made her somewhat resentful.

"Expert Lin, you're a medical expert capable of the impossible. I wonder how much you know about urology and gynecology?"

Faced with Ma Dewei's inquiry, Lin Jie cautiously said, "I know a little. Why do you ask?"

Ma Dewei sighed and said, "Our son's health hasn't improved, and we're afraid of any mishaps, so... so we've been trying hard to conceive, to have another child."

"It's just that after all these years of effort, my wife hasn't shown any signs. Could we please ask Expert Lin to look at our examination reports?"

Without waiting for Lin Jie to respond, Ma Dewei had already taken a stack of files from a document bag beside him and handed them over.

"Expert Lin, please take a look. We would be incredibly grateful!" Su Rui also pleaded!

Well then, this gratitude from the Ma family comes with an extra diagnosis.

Silently grumbling, Lin Jie took the stack of documents and began to leaf through them, one by one...

"Expert Lin, actually, my wife and I should have come much earlier when we brought our child here for diagnosis. But we've been abroad for a project, making it difficult to return midway. We just got back yesterday."

Ma Dewei slowly explained, "This examination was the latest one my wife and I had abroad. That hospital is quite reputable locally, and the doctors are quite skilled, especially in the fields of gynecology and urology."

"The expert doctors there, after seeing both our examination reports, said there's nothing wrong with our bodies. We've had several check-ups at hospitals in the country too, all saying there's no issue."

"But this is baffling."

Ma Dewei said with a face full of disappointment, "They all say there's no problem, but why haven't we been able to conceive for years now?"

"Back when we decided to have Jinshou, we stopped contraceptives and conceived within three months..."

At this moment, Ma Dewei turned into a rambling man.

He couldn't stop talking about the difficulties over the years, and what attempts and treatments he and his wife had tried, including taking various home remedies…

His wife, Su Rui, couldn't listen anymore and nudged him, scolding, "Just say a little less, don't disrupt Expert Lin's train of thought..."

At this time, Su Rui noticed that Lin Jie suddenly raised his eyebrows and his gaze concentrated. She couldn't help but ask with concern, "Expert Lin, did you discover something?"

Lin Jie pondered for a moment and said to Su Rui, "Stay in Binhai first. I'll personally conduct an examination for you on Monday afternoon."
