Chapter 2324: 2246 Rescue (Alliance Leader IvanLIN Bonus Chapter 2)

Worm!

It's really a worm!

A white, wriggling worm is struggling to crawl out of the eye!

Dahungya saw in the mirror himself with tears, looking very sad, yet he felt nothing.

Is this…… could I really be dead?

He dazedly watched all this, dazedly watched his mirror self silently shedding tears, as if that world's 'self' felt sorrow for him.

This scene was unexpected for Dahungya; he was completely dazed, staring blankly at the white worm struggling to wriggle at the eye corner, trying to crawl out. But for some unknown reason, it kept wriggling, as if in slow-motion replay.

What on earth is happening? After who knows how long, Dahungya finally regained consciousness. He stared in shock at his mirror self, with worms wriggling in his eyes and tears at the corners.

He wasn't agitated, didn't flee, but slowly turned, slowly walked to the table, picked up an eye shield and put it on himself.

Would not seeing make it better? Absolutely not.

Last time a black flying bug flew out of my mouth—wasn't it not cleaned up? Dahungya felt resentful; surely Boss Zheng didn't care enough to give me a proper checkup, just brushed me off.

But this thought only flashed, then he immediately buried it deep in his heart.

He couldn't say it, but he had made up his mind to go straight to Boss Zheng for treatment! He didn't trust any doctor in the provincial capital of Northern Province.

Still, it had to be Boss Zheng!

Even if they weren't attentive, crying and shouting would still make them cure my ailment.

Between life and death, although he harbored resentment, he still chose Boss Zheng.

Thus, Dahungya once again embarked on the journey to seek medical help.

……

……

Zheng Ren was busy, sitting and watching surgeries, going on stage to perform surgeries, coming down to lecture on surgeries. Although the General Surgery Department's skill tree had reached peak level, lately he simply hadn't encountered a suitable operation to show his skills.

Early in the morning he first went to the Community Hospital for rounds, then came to the Inpatient Department.

From afar, Zheng Ren saw Dahungya hunched at the waist standing at the Inpatient Department's door, wearing an eye shield, furtively looking around.

"How is it this guy again?" Su Yun's mood worsens every time she sees Dahungya.

Zheng Ren also felt helpless, but from afar he saw Dahungya's bright red system panel and guessed this guy had come to see him for treatment.

He really extorted himself—no registration, just walked right up. For thick‑skinned people, there's really nothing to do; Zheng Ren sighed and strode over.

The closer he got, Zheng Ren saw the diagnosis on Dahungya's system panel and burst out laughing.

"Boss Zheng, save me!" Dahungya dropped to his knees, his knee hitting the ground with a bang that came through clearly.

The same move, used a second time, had no effect on Boss Zheng whatsoever.

"Get up and speak; with so many people, what are you making of yourself!" Zheng Ren scolded.

"Boss Zheng, I… I…" Dahungya saw Zheng Ren, as if seeing hope, and could not speak coherently.

"If you want treatment, get up." Zheng Ren walked past Dahungya without a glance and strode straight into the Inpatient Department.

Dahungya immediately stood up, bent at the waist and followed behind Zheng Ren. He deliberately kept far from Su Yun, fearing that, like last time, this young master would kick him into the opposite wall.

"What's going on?" Zheng Ren asked while walking.

"Boss Zheng, I have worms wriggling in my eyes…" Dahungya said, and his heart filled with panic.

Just saying a few sentences made him terrified, let alone actually seeing them.

"What have you been up to? Tell me, young master." Su Yun asked with a chuckle, her face kind.

"Nothing…" Dahungya blurted out a lie instinctively, without thinking.

"If you're lying, just go back." Zheng Ren said coldly.

Dahungya staggered, his heart suddenly sinking. Boss Zheng knows everything? It's truly unwise to offend him, and who knows if my badmouthing him will be discovered?

Thinking of this, Dahungya's heart pounded even harder.

He didn't speak, Zheng Ren didn't ask, and only upon reaching the department did Dahungya ask: "Boss Zheng, should we go to the treatment room? That's the place we went to last time."

"Hmm, go take a look." Zheng Ren had him stand at the treatment room door while he went to change clothes.

"Boss, what's wrong with this guy?" Su Yun asked while changing clothes.

"I don't know; he won't say anything." Zheng Ren carefully answered Su Yun's question.

"Then why scare him?"

"If I don't scare him a bit, he won't tell the truth; I think the chances are low." Zheng Ren said, "Let's go look first."

After changing clothes, the two arrived at the treatment room.

"Speak, what's happened recently?" Zheng Ren asked as he entered.

Dahungya was dumbfounded; when a doctor sees a patient, it shouldn't be that he first removes his eye shield, sees the worm, the doctor's body shakes…… no, his face changes, and then what happens?

What kind of routine is this? It's just like the police—walk in and interrogate me about what bad deeds I've done.

If it weren't for Boss Zheng's face turning to ash that I still remember, Dahungya would probably feel dazed, thinking he'd walked into the wrong door.

"I'm asking you a question, what are you thinking?" Su Yun also found it puzzling, but Dahungya just went blank, making her think it even more unbelievable.

"Zheng…… Zheng……"

"Ten minutes left till shift change." Zheng Ren glanced at his phone, "If you won't speak, then forget it."

"No, no." Dahungya quickly removed his eye shield.

Su Yun staggered, "This is……"

"It looks like a conjunctival sucking threadworm, slender and cylindrical, appearing pale red when residing in the eye's conjunctival sac, milky white when leaving the body. The worm's surface has sharp-edged annular folds; viewed from the side, the upper and lower arrangements look serrated." Zheng Ren said lightly while looking at the worm in Dahungya's eyes.

"……" Dahungya was stunned; coming to Boss Zheng was right! One glance and he'd say what it is—he'll surely be able to cure it.

"Boss Zheng……"

Just as Dahungya was about to kneel, Zheng Ren's voice came through: "There are eight minutes left; if your medical history isn't accurate, then go register for a visit. We're not acquainted, I have no obligation to treat you for free."

Er... but saving lives and healing the wounded...

Nonsense, you work as a security guard at the hospital, and if I don't pay you, are you going to work or not? Su Yun retorted directly.

I need to support my family, Dahungya argued.

So you need to support your family, doctors are all immortals, they can subsist on wind and dew, right?

There are still 7 minutes and 32 seconds.

Don't, Zheng Lao Ban, I'm speaking. Dahungya saw Zheng Ren's cold expression and knew they didn't welcome him.

There's nothing to hide; he told everything that had happened recently, including his contact with bats.

Dahungya isn't stupid; right away he suspected the bats were behind it.
