Chapter 2481: with translation of chapter title

……

Zheng Ren was stunned—how many worms is this!

"How could there be so many?" Su Yun also asked strangely.

As soon as the words left his mouth, he immediately thought of something and asked, "Who collected them?"

Although he was asking, his gaze nevertheless turned to Professor Yang.

"We collected them." Professor Yang said.

"How many Roundworm Egg Capsules did she take?" Su Yun asked.

"What?" Zheng Ren was stunned—"Roundworm eggs, and capsules?"

"It's been a long time, it's... the show Slim Men and Women, have you seen it? The scene of Zheng Xiuwen eating roundworms, do you remember?" Su Yun asked.

Zheng Ren still had an impression of that scene; while watching, he thought the ingested roundworms were useless—they probably didn't have a chance to bore through the pylorus into the intestine to achieve weight loss.

The key is that eating live worms is too disgusting; it's probably artistic processing—the film needs such stimulating imagery to express the determination to lose weight.

But I never expected that in reality someone would actually produce Roundworm Egg Capsules!

"This... this thing... can it really be eaten?" Zheng Ren asked in astonishment.

Although he had some familiarity with various bits of information, Zheng Ren still didn't know about Roundworm Egg Capsules.

Seeing his boss's clueless face, Su Yun's morning grumpiness vanished, and he proudly said: "It's been around for a while—at least seven or eight years. Boss, you're so out of the loop, how can you better treat and save people?"

When Zheng Ren heard him start talking about treating and saving people, he said nothing and began to carefully watch Director Luo operate the gastroscope machine.

The stomach mucosa had scattered red spots, and at the pylorus a roundworm blockage could be seen... As Director Luo's four-pronged forceps grasped a roundworm and pulled it out, it induced the patient to vomit.

The nurse quickly helped turn the anesthetized patient's head to the side and placed the red trash bin to one side.

But the patient merely made a vomiting motion, without actually vomiting.

"If not anesthetized, the worms would probably all have been vomited up by now," Su Yun said from the side.

"The patient is in too much pain; it's better to anesthetize, so they suffer less." Zheng Ren said, "Soon we still need to do ERCP to remove the worms; I don't know how to operate it. I estimate that when entering the bile duct, the pain will intensify."

"This kid's got guts, Professor Yang, after she gets better don't forget to ask whether she just bought Roundworm Egg Capsules to take orally, without also spending ten bucks on deworming medicine." Su Yun said knowingly, "Are you worried that taking deworming medicine would ruin the weight-loss effect? How strange."

"Yun Ge'er, does this really work?" the little nurse in the gastroscopy room asked familiarly. Although she was a bit afraid, she still blinked her eyes asking. Unknown if she was interested in the Roundworm Egg Capsules or in talking with Su Yun.

Zheng Ren didn't even know how the two of them had met. That cry of "Yun Ge'er" was clear and pleasant, coy and sweet.

"Supposedly it works; some say it's pure natural, green, pollution-free—all bullshit." Su Yun said, "You've seen the worms inside, right? With that kind of determination, you'd be better off just exercising more."

The little nurse's mask twitched slightly, as if she wanted to stick out her tongue to look cute, but the mask blocked it. Su Yun was present, and the surgery didn't seem very tense.

"Speaking of roundworms, I encountered one once when I was in school." Professor Yang saw Zheng Ren arrive, felt relieved, and started gossiping, "In anatomy class, dissecting the cadaver teacher. After opening the esophagus I saw a white thread, and I wondered, what structure is this? I had the teacher come look, but still didn't understand."

"You're kidding, right? After calling the teacher over, can you still dissect?" Su Yun said contemptuously.

"Yeah, the teacher directly put on Gloves and dissected the esophagus, pulling out a 20cm roundworm specimen." Professor Yang said with a wry smile.

"Professor Yang, is there any difference with roundworms soaked in formaldehyde?" Su Yun narrowed his eyes and asked.

"No difference, the teacher put the worm away, saying he wanted to take it back to show off." Professor Yang said.

Such showing off is something medical people are willing to do. Rare, uncommon things, conditions, events—when mentioned over drinks, that's quite prestigious.

When others doubt, if you directly bring it out as a mountain-sealing treasure—the roundworm taken from the cadaver teacher's esophagus—it provides strong visual sensory stimulation and a slap-in-the-face effect.

"Tsk tsk, I've never encountered that." Su Yun said somewhat regretfully, "When I was in kindergarten, we all took deworming medicine. There was a girl who didn't want to take it, so we secretly threw it away. Later I saw roundworms crawl out of her nose; now I recall they were about 10-15 cm long, which scared our kindergarten teacher into tears."

"'Wow!' the little nurse praised, 'Yun Ge'er, you have such early memories!'"

Zheng Ren wanted to complain, but held back. Tonight Su Yun had morning grumpiness; originally while drinking, he encountered Bu Ruotian's split personality, making the drinking unpleasant. Going home to sleep, he was called awake again, Su Yun's morning grumpiness was strong, so he'd better not get involved.

"What's this, just driving? If you're embarrassed to listen, just go out." Su Yun said with a smile.

If Professor Yang-type people drove, the little nurse might think they're old and improper. But Yun Ge'er driving—does that even count as driving? Just this matter, tomorrow... no, in a bit I'll tell the group, they'll be dying of envy!

But the little nurse was at a loss.

She wanted to cheer and jump, but first, it's the ERCP room and surgery is ongoing. If she made big movements or loud noises, what if Director Luo got angry? Second, she must maintain a ladylike image; when Yun Ge'er drives, should she blush and feel embarrassed, or should she say something?

"First, I saw this." Su Yun said, "Little Broken Station, are you guys up?"

"What's Little Broken Station?" several people asked together.

"That's because you've never been there, I won't give you a primer. The station master of Little Broken Station has started selling T-shirts, using love to generate electricity to keep the site running; it probably won't last long." Su Yun felt a bit regretful, but then enthusiastically said: "In Little Broken Station, there used to be a complaint section; I read a post about his dormitory roommate's affairs."

"One day the roommate and his girlfriend went home, and they quietly exercised in the house."

"'Ah, nobody's home?'"

"'The parents are both home.' Su Yun said, 'Next time try it, not daring to make a sound, even more stimulating.'"

……

Zheng Ren rarely hears Su Yun drive; he never expected that when this guy drives, he has absolutely no scruples.

"With the lights off, the guy suddenly felt something off, turned on the light and saw a big white worm underneath."

This scene...... is truly beautiful to the point of being unbearable to watch.

"The girl let out a scream upon seeing it and fainted. Before fainting, she lost bladder and bowel control, spraying everywhere."

"'Later the girl's parents heard the scream and rushed in to see; the result...... was so embarrassing, hahaha~~~' Su Yun wore three masks, yet still couldn't hide his pleased smile."
