University Doctor and His Fragile Patients-Chapter 356 - 290: Crispy College Students’ Word Spirit Technique? I Have It Too!
Dr. Chen had seen a lot of patients who bite their fingernails.
But biting toenails?
Not only had he never seen it, he was hearing about it for the first time.
Dr. Chen stiffly pulled at the corners of his lips, "Your roommate has quite a set of teeth..."
As soon as he finished speaking.
Realizing there might be a slight issue with what he said, Dr. Chen quickly rephrased, "I'll apply to the school for free nail clippers for all students—one set per person..."
Saying this.
Dr. Chen paused, "Make that two sets per person, one for hands and one for feet—they should be separate..."
Mu Yao, listening to the boy's words next to him, couldn't help but give Dr. Chen a thumbs up.
"Dr. Chen, the students at your university really respect you!"
Dr. Chen's lips twitch, unable to say a word.
—
"I've been watching Dr. Chen's livestream for so long, and this is the first time I'm speechless about what to comment..."
"Biting one's own toenails and swallowing them, this... this is really indescribable..."
"As the saying goes, Hai City University has no idlers to spare!"
"Dr. Chen: Such respect—here, do you want it?"
"Some people seem calm, but are actually insane!"
"Don't ask why your school doesn't give out nail clippers—because your school doesn't have such hard-core people!"
"I'm from Hai City University. How am I supposed to tell interviewers after graduation that I'm normal?!"
"Pretty hard, you should just stay at school..."
"Pretty hard, you should just stay at school..."
"Pretty hard, you should just stay at school..."
"..."
—
"That classmate of yours, it isn't you, right?" Dr. Chen looked at the boy in front of him with a trace of suspicion in his eyes.
Over the past two years in the school clinic,
he's heard too many "I have a friend," "I have a roommate" kind of sentences...
And usually, when someone starts with such a sentence,
they're actually telling their own story.
Facing Dr. Chen's doubts, the boy shook his head furiously, "How could it be me! I'm a germaphobe!"
Dr. Chen was silent. 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂
He stared blankly at the boy's feet.
It seemed they hadn't been washed in days; they looked quite grimy.
Only the left big toenail looked somewhat clean.
There were even some peculiar "water stains" on it.
Almost everyone present was watching Dr. Chen's every subtle move.
At this moment.
Realizing Dr. Chen was spacing out, everyone instinctively followed his gaze.
Then...
Everyone saw the boy's toes with "water stains".
"Ugh!"
"Ugh!"
"..."
From the first dry heave onward, it was like the sound was contagious.
The boy under Dr. Chen's gaze seemed to realize something, his face turning pale.
But then Dr. Chen suddenly raised his head, as if nothing had happened, "Go tell your roommate he can come to the clinic next week to check his pulse and see about his health. This addresses whether or not there's a bacterial infection."
"As for whether the nail may tear the intestines, that depends on what kind of nails your roommate has. Some people's nails are soft and thin, and even if swallowed accidentally, the harm to the intestines is minimal, and most cases won't have issues, though we can't completely rule out rare cases..."
"If your roommate's nails are hard and he wants peace of mind, he can get an X-ray."
Listening to Dr. Chen.
The boy numbly nodded.
Seeing this, Dr. Chen openly pointed to his toes and laughed, "Next time, don't mess with your roommate; see, he didn't even spare your toes!"
Understanding Dr. Chen's hint.
The boy looked at Dr. Chen like a lifeline, nodding frantically, "Yes, my roommate is really a mad dog!"
"I won't mess with him ever again."
Dr. Chen pointed to the camera next to him, "You can use the livestream to keep track of my location in real-time. If your roommate doesn't want to be on camera, he can try avoiding me."
"Just to get an X-ray, the interns in the school hospital are quite professional, and most importantly..."
Dr. Chen crooked a smile, "Please believe that when it comes to protecting patient privacy, every doctor is professional."
"I believe! I believe!"
The boy beamed with delight, "Dr. Chen, I'll go tell my roommate everything you just said."
Saying this,
the boy happily ran off.
—
"There's no such roommate, clearly it's him!"
"What are you talking about! Didn't you hear, it was his roommate going crazy, which is how the water stains ended up on his toes!"
"But... who would believe such an utterly ridiculous story???"
"Where's the nonsense! It's not nonsense at all, alright!"
"If you want to slander someone, you need concrete evidence. Without it, it's clear his roommate went crazy—it has nothing to do with him!"
"Exactly! Dr. Chen confirmed the existence of his roommate, so the roommate exists!"
"!!!"
"Bros, I get it now! His roommate's truly nuts!"
"The young can still be taught!"
"..."
—
"Pfft!"
The boy had just left.
Mu Yao next to Dr. Chen couldn't hold back anymore, covering her mouth, laughing uproariously.
Hearing the commotion.
Dr. Chen couldn't help but shoot her a glare.
But Mu Yao raised her thumb at Dr. Chen once more, "Dr. Chen, honestly, your Word Spirit Technique is really something!"
"No sooner had you finished speaking than a new bizarre case came!"
"Among all of Hai City University, only you could have such a skill!"
Hearing Mu Yao's words.
Dr. Chen's gaze at Mu Yao grew playful.
His lips gently curled upwards, "Only I have such a skill? Not necessarily, right?"
"Hmm?" Mu Yao remained skeptical of Dr. Chen.
At that moment.
Without a second thought, she spoke up, "Dr. Chen! Let's do this!"
"I'll try too, if it doesn't work, then it must be your problem!"
Dr. Chen's gaze casually glanced in a direction.
Listening to Mu Yao speak with such confidence, he merely smiled, nodding, "Alright."
Brimming with confidence for her bet with Dr. Chen, Mu Yao announced confidently to the livestream camera, "I don't believe Hai City University has any more odd cases!"
No sooner had she said that!
A boy came running breathlessly towards Mu Yao and Dr. Chen from a distance, "Dr. Chen! Dr. Mu! Something's wrong in our dorm!"
Mu Yao: "!!!"
So.
It wasn't Dr. Chen's fault, but maybe Hai City University really has some feng shui issues?
Dr. Chen's playful gaze landed on Mu Yao.
Amusedly watching her awkwardness, seeing her indecisiveness on what to do with her hands and feet.
Dr. Chen's gaze then shifted to the boy who ran over, "Classmate, can we help you with anything?"
With a mournful face, the boy nodded, "Dr. Chen, my roommate sat on a cactus! Can you help him?"
Dr. Chen: "..."
