Chapter 94 Trial
The first thing Dong Yexi did after waking up was to try out the skill of [Living Hua Tuo]. With the Miracle Doctor Experience Card, how could he not try it?
So he immediately threw off the quilt, got up, and ran to the restaurant to find his eldest brother to take his pulse.
The eldest brother looked at him in surprise: "You woke up early just for this?"
Dong Yexi sat down next to him with a smile and said, "Brother, I have been studying Chinese medicine recently and want to try out the results of my study."
The eldest brother nodded and asked, "How do you want to try it?"
Dong Yexi took out a pen, paper and a cylinder made of a towel, placed them on the dining table and said, "Just put your hand on it." He used the towel as a temporary pulse diagnosis device.
Seeing that he was well prepared, the eldest brother smiled helplessly and put his hand on it cooperatively.
After Dong Yexi activated his skill, he suddenly felt different. He could tell that his elder brother was lacking in energy and blood just by looking at him.
He was shocked. Was this "diagnosis by observation"? It seemed the story in "Bian Que Meets Duke Huan of Cai" was true! A miracle doctor was someone who could diagnose a disease at a glance.
Is this the world through the eyes of a miracle doctor? Suddenly, I admire them even more.
Dong Yexi put aside his joking thoughts and gave his elder brother a detailed diagnosis according to the process of "looking, listening, asking and feeling".
During this process, the older brother showed no impatience and just did whatever he was told. Although he felt that his younger brother was just playing house, he was still happy to play this game with him.
After examining his elder brother, Dong Yexi breathed a sigh of relief. His elder brother had recovered well, with virtually no lasting symptoms, though he was a bit weak. Traditional Chinese medicine excelled at conditioning. However, he didn't prescribe medicine for his elder brother. After all, he'd said he was a learned scholar. He quickly wrote out a prescription, though his elder brother probably wouldn't dare drink it. Since medicine and food share a common origin, he simply wrote a menu.
He handed the menu to the old housekeeper and instructed: "Follow the menu I gave you for two weeks, and then I will adjust it."
The old butler took a look at the menu and saw that it was all about medicinal dishes. The herbs added were also for replenishing blood and qi. He knew that the second young master was not messing around. He nodded and said, "Okay, let the kitchen prepare it according to this from today."
After the old butler returned from sending the menu to the kitchen, Dong Yexi asked, "How is your health lately? How about I take a look at you?" The skill lasts for twelve hours, which cannot be wasted.
The old housekeeper smiled and said, "Okay~"
In order not to disturb the eldest young master while he was eating, the two of them moved to the reception room.
The eldest brother smiled and shook his head.
In order to verify what he learned, Xiaoxi even forgot to eat. It seems that he has been studying very hard recently.
He asked the kitchen to prepare some snacks and send them to Dong Yexi, so that he wouldn't get too caught up in it and end up going hungry.
Higashino was truly fascinated by the feeling of being a miracle doctor. After taking the old butler's pulse, he found that he was in good health, just starting to age. This was a natural process, and he could do nothing about it, except to remind the butler to adjust his diet and lifestyle to maximize his lifespan.
The old butler smiled and nodded. However, even though he agreed verbally, he wouldn't do it again. His lifestyle was already pretty good, but he still needed a little snack every day. He figured he was getting old anyway, so he might as well eat some good food before he died.
Dong Yexi saw what he was thinking and could only shake his head helplessly. However, he didn't force the old butler to change. The old butler didn't have diabetes, so it was okay for him to eat a few snacks. He could also remind the kitchen staff to reduce the sugar content of the old butler's snacks by half in the future.
It didn't take much time to examine just two people, and Dong Yexi decided that he wanted to "treat" everyone in the family.
The old housekeeper didn't know that he was going to eat a bland "dessert", and he happily helped Dong Ye Xi make arrangements, asking everyone in the Dong Ye family to come to the second young master to line up to "see a doctor".
When Dong Yexu went out, he saw a line of people outside the reception room and felt a little confused.
His driver explained, "The Second Young Master is treating everyone." He said enviously, "Maybe it will be over by the time I get back."
Dong Yexu looked at the driver calmly and said, "Didn't you just have a physical examination a while ago?" His own group is in the medical business, so employee benefits such as physical examinations are definitely more detailed than those of other units.
The driver scratched his head sheepishly and said, "It's mainly because the Second Young Master is so amazing. He can tell our physical condition and even what we've eaten recently just by looking at us or touching our wrists. Has the Second Young Master learned the art of Yin and Yang?"
Dong Yexu sighed, "He just studied Traditional Chinese Medicine." As the head of a medical group, even though he wasn't a medical student, he knew that Traditional Chinese Medicine was amazing. Some things even modern science couldn't explain, yet they simply worked. He could only say that experience that had been passed down for thousands of years must have some truth to it.
Seeing his brother practicing enthusiastically, he smiled and turned to go to work.
Dong Yexi looked at everyone in the family. It happened that everyone had a physical examination some time ago. What Dong Yexi said was the same as the physical examination report. Everyone immediately respected the second young master.
The Second Young Master could diagnose diseases that could only be diagnosed with various instruments with just one look. Could he be a miracle doctor?!
After Dong Yexi gave treatment suggestions to several people who were diagnosed with minor ailments, they became even more enthusiastic.
The Second Young Master is truly amazing! I am so lucky to be able to work in the home of a miracle doctor!
Higashino Hi had no idea that the servants' admiration for him was growing. After he took everyone's pulse, he immediately went to Hatori Yui's house.
He wants to treat Seiji Hatori.
Besides kidney transplantation, uremia can be alleviated through Traditional Chinese Medicine treatment. While not a cure, it can allow for a return to a normal life without dialysis. Furthermore, he can help Shizue Hatori recuperate, allowing him to live until a suitable kidney becomes available or artificial organ technology matures.
However, when he wanted to take Hatori Shizue's pulse, he was refused.
Dong Yexi frowned slightly and said, "You still have a chance of recovery, why give up?"
Shizue Hatori lowered his head and said nothing.
Higashino continued, "If you're worried about the cost of treatment, I can help you apply for assistance or a spot in a free clinical trial." He took Hatori Seiji's hand and said, "Don't worry, my family owns a hospital, and I'm sure I can cure you."
Shizue Hatori looked up at him, pursed his lips, and turned to look at Yuichi Hatori.
Higashino Xi also looked at Hatori Yuiichi and said anxiously, "Hurry up and persuade your brother! He's still so young, how can you give up on treatment?!"
Hatori Yuiichi looked down at Hatori Shizueji. He reached out and touched his head, and the hesitation in his eyes gradually turned into determination. His voice was a little hoarse: "Show it to Senior."
A flicker of disbelief flashed across Hatori Shizue's eyes. He was certain Hatori Yui wasn't joking, and his expression gradually calmed down. He obediently extended his hand, allowing Higano Hi to feel his pulse.
Higashino immediately held his wrist and began to feel his pulse, and then his face became increasingly grim. He withdrew his hand, looked at Hatori Seiji, and then at Hatori Yuichi, his eyes filled with shock.
Seiji Hatori only has one kidney! And it's not a congenital solitary kidney with one side underdeveloped; it was removed, leaving him with only one kidney.
He asked in a deep voice, "Jing Er had a nephrectomy?"
Nephrons work in rotation. Generally speaking, the human body only needs a quarter of its kidneys to maintain normal life. Losing one kidney means losing half the backup. Furthermore, the number of nephrons is fixed and consumable. If the kidney environment is poor, even two kidneys may not be enough, eventually leading to renal failure and a range of diseases. Therefore, people with only one kidney are more likely to develop uremia.
Hatori Yui lowered his eyes to the ground and nodded. He knew that his senior was a skilled doctor, capable of resuscitating a dying person, and would surely notice something was wrong with Shizue. However, his senior was right; Shizue was still young, and he couldn't give up on treatment.
Dong Yexi opened and closed his mouth and asked again: "What's the matter with Jing'er's kidney?" Under normal circumstances, even if the kidney is useless, it will not be removed casually.
Hatori Seiji sat up nervously. Hatori Yui patted his shoulder soothingly and explained, "He's donated a kidney before."
Dong Yexi's eyes widened: "How old is he?!"
Hatori Yui said with a complicated expression, "After all, he's a relative, it's hard to refuse. And he's the only one in the family who's a successful match."
Higashino couldn't believe his ears. What kind of crappy relative was this? He asked a minor to donate a kidney to him?! What about Hatori's parents? Didn't they care? Aren't their family members too easy to bully?
Hatori was the only one who didn't say much about that relative. He said, "At first, Seiji was in good health and could live normally without one kidney. However, his only kidney soon began to fail, causing many symptoms and eventually developing uremia. Although his family had been giving him dialysis, his body continued to weaken rapidly..."
Seeing that Hatori Yuichi and Hatori Shizue seemed to have no regrets, Higashino Xi rolled his eyes silently and was too angry to speak.
Hatori Yui obviously looked like someone who wasn't someone to be trifled with, but unexpectedly, he had such a soft side. He was so angry that his mammary glands were about to become blocked.
But now that things have come to this, there is no need to dwell on it anymore. The focus now is to treat Shizue Hatori.
Dong Yexi wrote down the complete treatment plan that emerged in his mind. Many of the Chinese herbs on it were difficult to find, but he could ask his eldest brother for help. In addition to taking the medicine, acupuncture was also needed.
He calculated the cooldown time of his skills and modified the acupuncture plan to once every three days.
He explained the treatment plan in detail to the two of them. Hatori Yui listened very carefully and said that he would definitely follow the doctor's instructions to treat Shizue.
Hatori Shizueji's expression grew increasingly terrified. He was about to be pricked with an acupuncture needle! A long needle, piercing his flesh! And he had to drink bitter medicine! He was already in such a state, could it get any worse?
He clung to his brother in fear, hugged his arms tightly, and his good impression of Dong Yexi dropped by half. He changed from his brother's good friend to a doctor, his identity changed, and his feelings also changed.
Higashino Hiroshi noticed Hatori Seiji's rejection. There are always patients who are unwilling to cooperate with treatment, but it doesn't matter. With Hatori Yui to suppress him, he has to cooperate even if he doesn't want to.
After finalizing the plan, Dong Yexi immediately went to find his elder brother and began to prepare the herbs and props.
Hatori Seiji lay on the balcony, watching Higashino Hiroshi leave. He turned his head to look at Hatori Yuiichi and asked, "Can I be cured?"
Hatori Yui nodded slightly: "Of course I can. I believe in you, Senior."
Hatori Shizue's expression was a little tangled. No one wants to die. Even if he can face death calmly, once there is a possibility of survival, he will want to seize the opportunity. But...
He hesitated. "Is this okay? Will they let me be cured?"
Hatori Yui touched the back of his neck and comforted him, "Don't worry, I have a way to make them agree."
He understood that it wasn't that those people couldn't cure Jing Er, they just weren't paying enough attention. Without Jing Er, there were other replacements, so there was no need for them to waste time and resources on him.
However, if he said that he wanted to let Seiji Hatori conduct clinical trials for the Higashino Group, they would most likely agree. Regardless of whether he could be cured or not, the treatment process could provide them with data that would ultimately benefit that person.
It's just that Jing'er will have a harder time in the future. He'll likely be monitored while receiving treatment. But once there are results, Jing'er will become an observation sample, which will be safer.
For now, this was the only way he could think of to prolong Jing Er's life. He also had to ask his aunt for help.
Hatori Yuiichi thought: I'm going to cause trouble for my aunt again.
