Chapter 168: Not Knowing the Gravity of Things

"Don't hit, don't hit." A figure in a White Uniform was pulling at the middle-aged man, but it seemed he couldn't hold him back for a moment, so in his helplessness, he had no choice but to hug him tightly.

This person was very familiar; Ji Xiang suddenly remembered the Emergency Department Doctor who had told him about the bathroom at the Second Affiliated Hospital being consecrated.

"Doctor, let go of me, I'm going to beat this little bastard to death!"

Ji Xiang hurried over to help. When the Emergency Department Doctor saw it was Ji Xiang, he didn't stand on ceremony, asking him to hold the middle-aged man while he hurriedly took the young man away.

Once the emotions had calmed down a little, Ji Xiang went to look for the Emergency Department Doctor.

Ji Xiang searched for a long time and only found the Emergency Department Doctor after asking a Nurse.

The young boy had a look of panic and helplessness on his face; he was likely stunned from being kicked. The Emergency Department Doctor squatted in front of him with a warm smile on his face.

Seeing Ji Xiang enter, the Emergency Department Doctor waved his hand as a greeting, but immediately focused his attention back on the young boy.

"Look at you, you didn't even say anything when you got sick, and in the end, it caused such a big scene."

The young boy was silent.

"Does your dad usually hit you like this?" the Emergency Department Doctor asked with a chuckle.

The young boy shook his head.

"Then he was truly angry," the Emergency Department Doctor said. "Do you know the gravity of the situation?"

"Gravity?"

"Mm, your dad thinks you have a boyfriend, which is what led to the prostatitis," the Emergency Department Doctor said very candidly. "But I know that's not it."

"..." The young boy looked bewildered, lowered his head, and remained silent.

"Cheating is just a small matter; if you don't tell your teacher, just admit it. You young people really don't know the gravity of things.

Let me tell you, when I was a kid at home watching TV, to keep the TV from overheating and getting caught, I used alcohol to cool it down. That day my dad came home a bit early, smelled the alcohol in the house, and asked me what was going on."

"I didn't know which would get me beaten worse, drinking or watching TV, so I just said I was in a bad mood and had a few drinks."

"And then?" the young boy asked.

"I was hung from the fan and beaten all night, and two belts were snapped."

The Emergency Department Doctor spoke with a magnetic quality that calmed the agitation in one's heart, and the young boy was the same.

It was just that the young boy's expression was uncertain, and it looked like he was still struggling internally.

Ji Xiang was completely confused by what the Emergency Department Doctor said; did cheating have anything to do with coming to the hospital for treatment?

Thinking back to the matter of having a boyfriend, Ji Xiang understood even less.

He admired this Emergency Department Doctor more and more; he seemed like a gossip who knew everything.

Experienced as hell.

"Listen to your uncle, go and admit the cheating to your dad, and he definitely won't be that angry. As for your studies, just study hard from now on. Even if you can't get into Qingbei, the scores for second-tier undergraduate programs are quite low, you can definitely get into one."

"You can tell how serious things are just by looking at how angry your dad is, yet you still won't speak. That's why you kids really don't know the gravity of things."

"I... didn't!" The young boy stubbornly lowered his head, the two words squeezed out from between his teeth, sounding a bit awkward.

"Didn't what?" the Emergency Department Doctor laughed. "Let me ask you, how long have you been learning Morse code?"

Morse code?!

What did that have to do with seeing a doctor?

But Ji Xiang noticed the young boy's complexion change abruptly; that stubborn expression vanished in an instant, and his face turned deathly pale.

"With that time, you'd be better off studying hard; you're using your energy in the wrong place. I was the same when I was young, and what happened? I became an Emergency Department Doctor. What a sin!" the Emergency Department Doctor said.

"What Morse code, I don't know." The young boy was still trying to stall.

"Anal plugs, using the vibrations to transmit answers via Morse code; this has been happening for a year now," the Emergency Department Doctor said very calmly. "I don't understand you young people's affairs, but I've seen girls who play COS get anal plugs stuck and unable to take them out, and I've also seen people use this stuff to cheat."

Ji Xiang admired him to the point of prostration.

What is clinical experience? The Emergency Department Doctor's clinical experience was truly overflowing.

"Later, it was said that abroad, this was used to ruin a chess champion; it's really just a bunch of little brats not knowing the gravity of things," the Emergency Department Doctor said. "Once you're actually in the college entrance exam hall, there are electronic signal jammers; it's impossible to cheat this way."

"Here, if you agree, I'll help you explain it to your father," the Emergency Department Doctor said gently. "I guarantee you won't get beaten, how about that?"

"..."

The young boy had already been swayed by the Emergency Department Doctor; his eyes flickered, showing a hint of fear.

"Believe me, your father is angry because of something else. If it's just cheating, admit your mistake and study hard in the future, and it will pass."

"I hope we can trust each other; at least you can give me your trust."

"Really... can I?" the young boy asked hesitantly.

"Of course." The Emergency Department Doctor stood up and reached out his hand.

The young boy hesitated for five seconds before placing his hand into the Emergency Department Doctor's.

Pulling him to his feet, the Emergency Department Doctor said with a chuckle, "Study hard in the future. I know you find me long-winded, but for you to cheat like this... you had time to learn Morse code, yet you didn't have time to memorize your books."

"Once you get out into society, you'll know that going to school and studying is truly the simplest thing in the world."

While talking to the young boy, the Emergency Department Doctor gave Ji Xiang a look, signaling him to wait for him.

It was a full twenty minutes later before the Emergency Department Doctor returned with a face full of smiles.

He spoke to the doctor covering his shift and came to the Fire Exit to light a cigarette.

"Teacher, what was that about cheating you mentioned earlier?" Ji Xiang asked curiously.

"Electronic products in anal plugs, mainly electronic beads, relying on vibrations to transmit Morse code," the Emergency Department Doctor explained with a chuckle. "You must be Ji Xiang, the one who broke the grand competition record over a hundred times."

"Heh, I just guessed," Ji Xiang laughed. "Teacher, your experience is truly rich; I didn't even know about that."

"You'll know everything after working in the Emergency Department for a few years," the Emergency Department Doctor said nonchalantly. "The Emergency Department is a big window; you can encounter all sorts of strange things every day. Just like a long time ago, a girl came in for treatment, and after opening it up, I saw a big, furry tail."

"A COSER?"

"Mm, because the anal plug was inserted too deep, it couldn't be taken out. In the hospital, these are all small matters, and since it doesn't fall under my jurisdiction, I just sent her to the Anorectal Department," the Emergency Department Doctor said. "Do you know what my first thought was at the time?"

"That you'd encountered a fox spirit?"

"It's repaying a debt of gratitude, repaying a debt of gratitude!" the Emergency Department Doctor emphasized with great seriousness.

"Hahaha." Ji Xiang was amused by the Emergency Department Doctor's words; this person was truly very interesting.

"What a beautiful dream; I actually thought the little cat I feed every day had really taken human form to repay my kindness, tsk."

He viciously exhaled a smoke ring.
