Chapter 153 152. Prosthetic Fitting

Huaiyu returned to Huacheng Hospital with his iconic backpack on his back.

She was already familiar with the way to the private ward. She had a thin body but great energy. When passing by the nurses' station, everyone only needed to see her back to know that Zhou Qian's sister had come again.

but……

She knocked on the door gently, but there was no movement in the ward.

So I had to stand on tiptoe and look through the small window of the ward - damn, short people have such a limited perspective!

Is he resting? Huaiyu thought for a moment and gently turned the doorknob, only to find that the ward was empty. She remembered what Zhou Qian had said about prosthetic fitting in the morning, so she turned around and headed straight to the nurse station:

"Sister," she looked at the two familiar nurses with her big dark eyes, "Where is Brother Zhou Qian?"

The nurse uttered an "ah" and looked a little confused and hesitant. But Huaiyu still looked at her expectantly, with eyes full of trust.

She pursed her lips, but still spoke up. There was no rule against speaking up, right? "It's in the new biomaterial adaptation area at the end of the corridor on the right. He should be doing basic adaptation there."

"But...sister, this project is not suitable for family members to watch. Why don't you sit and wait for a while? I have some candy here, would you like some?"

After she finished speaking, she opened the drawer and carefully picked out a candy from it. Her eyes were glued to the candy as she handed it to her - after all, candy was that expensive.

But Huaiyu just took it with a giggle, then took out a paper bag from the backpack and handed over two yellowish translucent rock candies: "Sister, I'll treat you to this, too."

Ah? She grabbed the nurse's hand that was holding out the candy, and then felt a chill in her palm. When she came to her senses, Huaiyu had already rewrapped the candy and walked a long way away.

The two nurses looked at each other, and after a while, they quickly stuffed the candy into their mouths: "This one has no wrapper, so you'd better eat it as soon as possible--uh!"

The two of them stared at each other in confusion: "So sweet! Purely sweet!" It tastes much better than the plant-extracted sweetener candies she gave them and the ones issued by the hospital! Huaiyu had already quietly stepped into the corridor on the right.

There were different clinics on both sides of the corridor. There were people sitting on a row of benches at the door. Some were on IV drips and some were disabled. Everyone looked very negative and tired. Huaiyu felt depressed just by passing by the corridor.

It turned out that she was right to come back to the hospital.

Otherwise, in such an environment, Zhou Qian must be very lonely and pitiful to adapt his prosthesis all alone!

But... why did the nurse say it was not suitable for family members to see?

She frowned and wondered: Is it because she was afraid of being embarrassed in front of her family members because she would still do some basic rehabilitation exercises during the fitting? That shouldn't be the case. Isn't it true that rehabilitation training requires family members to accompany her to give her confidence?

While he was thinking, he had reached the end of the corridor, and a middle-aged woman suddenly walked out of the ward in front of him, talking to the doctor beside her as she walked, and almost bumped into Huai Yu.

She quickly dodged to the side, but forgot that she was still carrying the backpack, which was against the wall and almost bounced back onto the person.

Fortunately, the other party seemed to be in a good mood. His skin-colored prosthetic feet stepped on the ground, and a pair of hands held her firmly:

"careful."

Then he turned to the doctor beside him and said, "I feel it's a good fit, and it's not painful at the moment."

As she spoke, she stomped her feet twice.

The other person had a prosthetic limb attached below the knee. The color of his skin did not look out of place, and there was no noticeable friction from the joints when he walked.

Judging from her movements and coordination, she is obviously very close to a normal person. If this is true, then after the prosthetic limbs are installed, she should be able to live like a normal person, right?

The doctor also smiled gently: "Yes, the prosthetic limbs made in our country today are gentle and have a high adaptability rate. Foreign countries have to rely on imports from here."

"Plus, the data collection in the early stage was very detailed, and you maintained it well. Now it is officially installed. Just walk around slowly for a while and observe it."

The other person's voice was steady, and he sounded trustworthy. The middle-aged woman also looked relieved, and then she stepped forward without hesitation.

Huaiyu subconsciously took a few more glances and couldn't help wondering what color Zhou Qian chose - I wonder if he likes bright red!

If there was a bright red leg bone, it would be particularly eye-catching in the wilderness, right?

She turned her head and looked at the clinic she had just been to, her eyes full of anticipation.

The doctor walked a few steps forward with the middle-aged woman, left a few words of advice, and then came back.

Seeing Huaiyu standing at the door with expectation, he couldn't help but look her up and down: "Little girl, are you going to come for the matching in person? Why don't I see the appointment form?"

Curious, he went back to the office and flipped the notebook up and down.

"No more, this is the only one who made an appointment this afternoon..."

He looked at Huaiyu: "Have you registered?"

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

Huaiyu shook his head and quickly explained: "It's not me, it's my brother who is also doing the matching. The nurse said it's here. But..."

She looked around and saw that this was just an ordinary consulting room.

Outside is the doctor's office, with various measurement models and auxiliary tools on the table and floor.

There is a glass door inside the house. Without going in, you can see a wide area with handrails. There are also several prosthetic limbs of different colors and sizes placed next to it, which I think are for everyone to practice adaptation.

But there was no trace of Zhou Qian.

The doctor flipped through the notebook again, and the blank space at the bottom made him frown in confusion: "But I only made an appointment with the person just now? What's the name of your family member?"

Huaiyu was also a little confused, but still answered honestly: "Zhou Qian."

I couldn't help but turn around and look at the sign on the door - it was indeed the right corridor, and it was indeed the prosthetic adaptation area!

Unexpectedly, the doctor's eyes widened instantly: "Your family member is Zhou Qian? That Zhou Qian?"

That... Zhou Qian? Which one?

Huaiyu frowned, and saw the doctor in front of her look her up and down, and then his eyes showed pity: "You two brothers and sisters depend on each other for survival. Life must be very difficult, right?"

"I was thinking that the defense army has good benefits, and life will be a little tight in the future, but not that bad... But I still have to say that your brother is really amazing!"

Huaiyu was even more confused. Just as she was about to ask something, she saw the doctor patted her shoulder gently and turned her around: "He has given so much to your family. Little girl, take good care of your brother in the future!"

As he spoke, he pushed her towards the door: "Hey, you've found the wrong clinic. He's in the innermost one - the new biomaterial fusion room."
