Great Medical System in a Veterinarian

Chapter 813 - 320: Deadly Rare Disease Rocks the School, Dean Hu Goes Berserk!

"This..."

Both Chang Lingzhu and Shen Changming turned their eyes to Hu Yaohua.

Because neither of them had this Yale professor’s words in their heads.

Especially Chang Lingzhu. Although she was the director of a Chinese-medicine show, her understanding of Chinese medicine was actually very superficial.

When it came to professional terms like this, or lines probably quoted from some top expert in the field, she really didn’t understand.

She looked at Dean Shen.

The other party also had a completely baffled expression.

He probably didn’t know either.

Which made sense. Although he had majored in surgery in undergrad, his master’s and PhD had all gone into veterinary medicine, and after so many years since graduation he’d always worked as a veterinarian. Not knowing some of these terms was normal.

"What view of Professor John Elfertriadis are you talking about?"

Hu Yaohua looked puzzled.

But from the perspective of the row of school leaders down below—especially old foxes like Feng Xicai—they immediately caught that slight flicker of hesitation in Hu Yaohua’s eyes.

Years of reading people told him:

if someone’s gaze wavers a bit when they’re answering a question, that person probably has an issue, or is hiding something.

From this, it could be inferred that Professor Hu did know Professor John Elfteriadis. He guessed that once that professor’s name was mentioned, the illness of Xiao Zhou would basically be exposed.

Which was why the other party was pretending to be clueless.

But what exactly was wrong with Xiao Zhou?

All they knew was that Dean Hu had planned to arrange an undercover patient. As for who the undercover was and what exactly the illness was, he hadn’t told them.

His stated reason was to ensure scientific validity and accuracy, and to avoid leaks.

To be honest, quite a few teachers present had already been surprised when Yunzhou went on stage. Now that it turned out the undercover patient was him, it was even more unbelievable.

Bear in mind, this afternoon he’d even briefly gone on the court to play in the game against the Northeast Sports Academy’s school team.

He’d thrown down several dunks in a row, single-handedly pulling back the small deficit Northeast University had been in, and in the end helping them win the Northeast college men’s basketball championship in one go, and qualify to represent the whole Northeast in the 28th Huaxia College Basketball League, contending for the title against the TOP1 reps from Southwest, Southeast, and Northwest.

He sure hadn’t looked like there was anything wrong with him then.

No way Dean Hu would throw a feint like this, right?

Like finding someone with no illness and having him pose as a patient to come here and be examined.

If they hadn’t just seen the earlier consultation with Dean Chang, plus this hesitant, wavering look on Dean Hu’s face while he pretended not to know what he clearly knew, he’d probably have chalked it up to Xiao Zhou’s good acting.

And that Xiaochuan’s diagnostic skills didn’t quite live up to the rumors outside.

But in the current situation?

Dean Chang Lingzhu had been definitively diagnosed with a vascular tumor in his hand, and in the moment when everyone thought Xiaochuan had gone crazy, he’d pulled off an extreme reversal and proved his judgment correct.

He had even made everyone see the vascular tumor in Dean Chang’s hand with their own eyes.

That was with the flashlight of a cell phone.

Just that alone was enough to prove that Xiaochuan’s diagnostic ability was very impressive.

Think about it: if he had really cheated all the way to this point, how many people would he have had to bribe to pull off something like this?

And some people are actually very hard to bribe.

For example, Dean Hu, Dean Shen, and Dean Shen’s wife, Dean Huang Xiangning.

As a vice dean at the Provincial Hospital, she’d be hard to buy off—though not impossible. After all, everyone has weaknesses; all that’s missing is the right price, that’s all.

But for a kid from a poor county, with no real family background or connections, it would be extremely difficult to bribe someone like her.

The only way was for his ability to convince them.

So, in conclusion, Yunzhou probably really did have a relatively serious illness.

He had even gone to their university-affiliated hospital for a consultation.

And everyone still had enough patience for this.

They all decided to wait and see.

"Professor John Elfteriadis is a professor at the Yale University Thoracic Aortic Disease Center. He once pointed out: ’When we lay the palm flat, if the fingers clearly extend beyond the length of the palm, or when the fingers are folded across the palm, if the nail bases significantly exceed the edge of the palm, this may suggest the presence of what we commonly call "genius disease" or other similar syndromes.’ Of course, this observational index, while it cannot be used as a basis for definitive diagnosis, can serve as a preliminary reference."

At this moment, Zhang Lingchuan was speaking to Dean Hu Yaohua as well as the audience in front of the camera and the listeners in the hall.

"Genius disease?"

"What the hell? There’s actually a ’genius disease’ in this world??"

"So you’re saying Senior Yunzhou is a genius? Damn, this symptom is awesome! How do I get it? I want it too!"

"My mom always says I’m dumb—if I get genius disease, will I turn into a genius?"

"Uh... I just went to search it. A bunch of different illnesses are called genius disease. Which genius disease exactly does Senior Yunzhou have!"

The viewers in the livestream were stunned when they heard the name of this condition.

Then people started wondering: does this world really have such a weird illness?

Some even joked that maybe if they got this illness they wouldn’t be stupid anymore, and would become geniuses.

While some were busy running their mouths, others who were more action-oriented immediately went off to search "genius disease."

And the search results left them dumbfounded.

There were conditions where being born smart was called genius disease, disorders of extreme but focused personality were called genius disease, and even innate athletic and artistic coordination in the body was called genius disease... by the time they were done, they even saw gout being called genius disease.
