Chapter 547: Diagnosis — Endometriosis

The pause on the screen ended. Ji Xiang seemed to be saying something to the female Patient, but the camera angle was being adjusted at that moment, so it did not capture Ji Xiang's face.

Without seeing the movement of his lips, the lip-reading Expert's dragon-slaying skills had no way to be put to use, and no one knew what Ji Xiang had said to the Patient at that time.

"What is he doing! Can the production team be more professional!!" Liu Zhuren said with some anger.

"I suspect Ji Xiang didn't want to say it afterward; as for how much the lip-reading Expert can decipher, that depends on fate," Bai Chuzhang said cautiously.

This episode was different from previous ones; Bai Chuzhang no longer had a relaxed and easy smile on his face, but was full of seriousness, as if this Patient were about to jump off a building at the Second Affiliated Hospital's Outpatient Department.

He had unconsciously immersed himself in the situation, with a level of involvement even greater than Liu Zhuren's.

After all, Liu Zhuren was an "outsider" when facing similar matters, while the Medical Affairs Department had to face and handle such incidents directly.

"Lao Bai, what do you guess the Patient's illness is?" Liu Zhuren looked closely at the female Patient, seeing that her face was pale, but she had not yet entered the cachectic state of a terminal Tumor patient, "I guess it's Liver Cancer."

"I don't know, I can't guess." Once Bai Chuzhang entered the state, he didn't even want to guess and directly refused to answer.

"You really are boring."

On the screen, the camera standing on the floor above was looking for an angle behind the crowd, and finally, they found a suitable angle to see the faces of Ji Xiang and the female Patient.

Ji Xiang's face was covered in tears, like falling rain, large and small pearls falling onto a jade plate.

Seeing this scene, Liu Zhuren smiled slightly, "Xiao Ji really dares to do anything and can do anything. Crying so sadly, if one didn't know, they would think it was real."

Although Bai Chuzhang was serious, he couldn't help but smile when he saw this scene.

The camera was very far away, and one could only see the lips moving vaguely; Ji Xiang was communicating with the female Patient.

As for what was being said, it was completely inaudible.

The barrage of comments almost completely blocked the screen, so Bai Chuzhang had no choice but to turn off the comments to clear things up.

Ji Xiang said a few words to the female Patient, and as his hand touched his pocket, the image froze, gradually shrank, and finally landed in the upper right corner, with the main perspective switching back to the Review Room.

Previously, neither Bai Chuzhang nor Liu Zhuren liked the Review Room; the things said by those amateur guests were simply unlistenable, and only Professor Shen's commentary was worth listening to.

But since peers often belittle one another, even regarding Professor Shen's commentary, the two of them did not think it was correct.

However, at this very moment, they both hoped to switch back to the Review Room to hear the lip-reading Expert's interpretation.

"A section was missed in the middle, later that young man... is his name Ji Xiang?" Teacher Luo asked.

"Yes," the Guangtou Zhuchiren replied.

"Doctor Ji Xiang said his girlfriend just jumped off a building back home, jumping without hesitation in front of two friends," Teacher Luo said, pausing here, then asked in confusion, "May I ask, is this true?"

"No," the Guangtou Zhuchiren replied, "Doctor Ji Xiang is here to film the show; I haven't heard that he has a girlfriend. And just now he was accompanying Yang Zhuren in the Outpatient Department and went up to solve the problem only after seeing someone about to jump."

"Great acting," Teacher Luo received the answer he had imagined and praised with much emotion, "He said he had just asked an Expert to look at the scans and that it could be treated as much as possible. It's a pity he came too late, just one step short."

"What illness?"

"It seems to be Endometriosis," Teacher Luo said, "What does this illness... mean?"

"Endometriosis mainly manifests as secondary dysmenorrhea, which gradually worsens. It is common in women of reproductive age, most commonly between 25 and 45," Professor Shen explained, "Some patients are not very painful, but some patients are in quite severe pain."

"So that's it," Teacher Luo nodded, "They are discussing the condition. Doctor Ji Xiang is repenting; he means it would have been better if they had come earlier. That woman, it seems she is the Patient herself, asking Doctor Ji Xiang if this illness can be cured? And which Gynecology director gave the opinion."

"What did Doctor Ji Xiang say?" the Guangtou Zhuchiren pressed.

"He said it wasn't a Gynecology director who gave the opinion, but a doctor back home who can perform Interventional Surgery named Zhao Zhe, who suggested coming to the Provincial Hospital to have an Interventional Department Expert take a look."

Upon hearing the name Zhao Zhe, everyone simultaneously confirmed that Ji Xiang was indeed lying.

It was just that his movements and expressions were too realistic, and his crying was too natural; those who didn't know the truth would definitely think he was in total despair.

"Teacher Shen, can this illness be treated with Interventional Surgery? Why don't the Gynecology experts know about it?" the Guangtou Zhuchiren raised a very sharp question.

"It's like this, this illness is quite painful and can give people a sense of impending death. The treatment method I know is to remove the uterus; as for treatment via Interventional Surgery, I have never heard of it."

Professor Shen's words were somewhat scattered, without order or logic; it was estimated that his mind was also in a mess.

"Teacher Shen, is Doctor Ji Xiang just saying things at random?" the Guangtou Zhuchiren asked, "If this is just saying things at random, it might trick the Patient down. It might trick her for a moment, but you can't trick someone for a lifetime.

If the pain is that severe, there will always be problems later."

"That's right, what if the Patient seeks to end her life again later?"

"In this kind of situation, you just have to take care of the immediate moment; you can't consider that far ahead. If you don't do anything now, the Patient might jump off the building the next second. Once a person jumps, there is no 'later'."

The guests each held their own views, each with their own thoughts.

Liu Zhuren frowned, "Lao Bai, what do you think?"

"I'm looking with my eyes."

"I'm asking you a question, be serious."

"What I don't understand is, it looks like that female Patient has Endometriosis," Bai Chuzhang said calmly after pondering, "But here is the problem, I ask you Dazhi, you saw the Patient just now, can you provide a diagnosis?"

"No," Liu Zhuren shook his head; he already understood what Bai Chuzhang meant.

"Neither can I. This kind of psychological offensive must be steady, accurate, and ruthless, hitting the vital point directly," Bai Chuzhang said, "But Xiao Ji not only rushed up, he gave a diagnosis just by looking with his eyes, and directly fabricated a girlfriend with Endometriosis."

"..." Liu Zhuren was speechless.

"How did he diagnose it? Strange." Bai Chuzhang was puzzled, his right hand tapping on the table, making a thumping sound.

"Maybe he guessed it," Liu Zhuren said, "The Patient looked pale, maybe from excessive blood loss, and for a woman of this age... Xiao Ji also wanted to close the distance between himself and the Patient; whether it's true or not doesn't matter."

Bai Chuzhang did not seem to agree with Liu Zhuren's opinion, but he had no better explanation and could only continue watching the television.
