Chapter 2981: with translation of chapter title

Ye Qingqiu's fingers lightly tapped on the side of his leg, Zheng Ren stared for a moment, what the hell is this, a spy meeting? How are they still using Morse code.

However, Zheng Ren quickly figured out the trick.

When Principal He called Director Yan out to talk, Director Yan already knew what he wanted to say.

Director Ye and Director Yan worked in perfect sync; he quietly slipped out then, and Zheng Ren didn't even notice this person disappearing without a trace.

The Medical Department of 912 truly hides dragons and crouching tigers; no wonder Lin Ge was once ordered around like a grandson, without a single complaint, just hoping to retire peacefully.

Just the fact that Director Ye handled this kind of thing today proves he's not ordinary.

"Zheng Lao Ban, what are we going to do next?" Director Yan asked.

"Wait for the test results to come back; if it's confirmed as copper poisoning, we'll treat accordingly. Just push the medication intravenously; I'm not too keen on using activated charcoal as a treatment. They use it more in the United States, but we use less here." Zheng Ren spoke frankly.

Director Yan nodded.

"Copper poisoning? We're not a factory, where would we get that much copper!" a person standing beside Principal He said, "That's utter nonsense."

Director Yan glanced disapprovingly, and Zheng Ren also looked over. The speaker was wearing a white coat with the characters of Er Zhong printed on it, apparently the legendary school doctor.

"May I ask your surname?" Zheng Ren wasn't angry either; this diagnosis was originally Big Pig Trotter's, and just using jaundice to confirm it left me unsure, so it's no wonder someone would step forward to question it.

"It doesn't matter what my surname is; your diagnosis is way too off." That person glanced at Zheng Ren, didn't even recognize him, and said bluntly, "I think it's just a common stomach flu, not food poisoning."

Zheng Ren frowned, but he didn't say anything; the blood samples had already been sent for testing, and the results would come back soon. With objective evidence, the truth will surface eventually, so there's no need to argue with him here.

"Teacher, may I ask your surname?" Su Yun smiled as she took off the disposable mask she had casually put on during the rescue, and asked gently.

"" Zheng Ren was speechless; that person is going to be unlucky.

The gentler Su Yun's smile, the bigger her temper when she loses it; this person is doing it on purpose.

However, Zheng Ren didn't stop them; in his view, none of this was necessary.

"My surname is Ni." That person said, "Abdominal pain, diarrhea, vomiting—should be due to cold weather aggravating irritation of the gastrointestinal tract. Just fluid replacement and rest; I thought you'd diagnose acute gastroenteritis, so how did you end up with copper poisoning?"

"Teacher Ni, may I address you as such?" Su Yun said with a smile.

"You're welcome." Seeing Su Yun's politeness, the school doctor also smiled slightly, showing courtesy.

"What evidence do you have for your diagnosis of stomach flu?"

"Stomach flu occurs more often when the weather changes between cold and warm, due to cold air stimulating the intestines and stomach, plus irregular living habits and poor diet, etc."

"Coxsackie virus-induced enteritis is different from gastroenteritis; the main difference is that acute gastroenteritis patients often have a history of unclean diet, with more severe nausea and vomiting, and their vomit often has an irritating odor, but generally no fever." The school doctor went on, "The students' situations are all similar—just vomiting; how could the school cafeteria possibly be unclean?"

Zheng Ren listened to him say that and felt the world's affairs were truly absurd.

Just now Principal He whispered to him, likely telling him to speak up. It's unclear whether this person even has a medical license; who gave him the courage to spout nonsense in the EmergencyDepartment?

"Teacher Ni's diagnosis is clear, and the differential diagnosis is thorough—impressive." Su Yun said with a grin. He stared straight ahead, Director Yan's expression grew uglier, and Su Yun pretended not to notice.

Ye Qingqiu stepped forward and said, "Doctor Ni, we have medical protocols; the children's blood samples have already been sent for testing, and we……"

"Overmedication, overmedication!" the school doctor said angrily, "The medical atmosphere is terrible now; it's all you doctors causing trouble! It's just a cold, yet you actually run all those tests."

Zheng Ren stared for a moment; this person is just too stupid. Director Ye clearly stepped up to mediate, telling him the blood samples had already been sent for testing; if he really felt something was off, waiting for the blood test results would be fine.

He rushed forward and directly diagnosed stomach flu—is that really okay?

Director Ye kept a straight face, smiled slightly, and stepped back half a step, without making an effort to dissuade him from courting death.

"Just a stomach flu and you have to report it—making a mountain out of a molehill!" the school doctor said angrily, raising his arm and gesturing while standing by the bedside.

"Teacher Ni, I think you're right." Su Yun said with a grin, "Could you please look into this? The children all vomited, and the time span isn't long—what's going on?"

"It's just the weather, didn't I tell you that?" The school doctor, growing dissatisfied with Su Yun for daring to step forward and continue provoking him, said this young doctor is really hard to read, pursing his lips: "Didn't you hear what I just said?"

"I heard it, and the diagnosis is simply too reasonable." Su Yun said sarcastically, the smile on her face growing thicker.

"Our diagnosis has already been reported to the disease control center—it's just stomach flu, definitely not copper poisoning. Isn't that just nonsense?" The school doctor added another remark.

Principal He whispered, "Director Yan, do you think this diagnosis is reliable? Why don't we report it together? It's just a preliminary diagnosis, a preliminary diagnosis."

Director Yan said nothing, maintaining a stern expression while pretending to be deaf and dumb.

Zheng Ren heard it clearly, even though Principal He's voice was soft.

He sighed, knowing this was their goal—delay, delay, cover it up! Cover it up!!

"Mb!" Zheng Ren felt somewhat angry.

Ye Qingqiu's phone vibrated, but he remained expressionless, silently walking out like a hunting beast.

Soon, he returned after the call, exchanged a silent glance with Director Yan, and said, "Manager Zhou, please print out the test results."

"I'll go, Director Ye." Su Yun smiled and spoke up.

He didn't wait for Ye Qingqiu to say anything, striding to the computer in the resuscitation room and began searching for the test sheet.

The test results had already been uploaded; Su Yun printed them out. Listening to the hum of the printer, Zheng Ren pondered where this copper poisoning came from.

It's strange; copper element is normally stable, so poisoning wouldn't occur unless large amounts of copper sulfate were used to induce vomiting. Another possibility is a northern copper hot pot not cleaned properly, with verdigris remaining, which can also cause copper poisoning.

But neither of those scenarios matches the children's current condition.

"Teacher Ni, you were really right." Su Yun held the test report, running over to the school doctor like a little doctor.
