"When I was 6 years old, my whole body gradually withered, like grass in the dry season, and turned into what I am now." In the video, Maris said coldly: "Zheng, do you think I am sick now?"
Zheng Ren watched the video as if watching a film in front of a 912 reader, holding his arms and thinking about it carefully.
Su Yun felt a cold wind blowing around him, and his body turned to the side, as if the change of angle could make him feel warmer.
Maris stopped talking, and the crystal ball in front of her exuded a gloomy luster. Even though they were separated by thousands of mountains and rivers, just a video call filled Zheng Ren's room with a sinister atmosphere.
"Besides being... thin, do you have any other discomforts?" Zheng Ren asked after pondering for more than ten seconds.
"No." Maris said, "My body is now like this, so why should I feel uncomfortable?"
"What about your physical strength? Do you feel tired often?"
"No!" Maryse's voice was slightly sharp.
"Do you have both parents? Or..."
Before Zheng Ren could finish his sentence, the light of the crystal ball in the picture skyrocketed, and his eyes felt as if they were stabbed by invisible needles, causing a dull pain.
But just for a moment, a hand in a dress fell on the crystal ball, and the light was suddenly shrouded in a layer of gray mist and dimmed.
"Maryse, Zheng and Su are my friends, and I don't want them to get hurt." Christian said seriously.
Half of Maris' dry face was covered by black hair, but her eyes were as sharp as knives. She looked at Zheng Ren in the video. The black robe gradually fell off, and the light on the crystal ball also faded a little.
Zheng Ren didn't know why she was so angry when he asked her about her family history. This is the most difficult patient, bar none.
"Kerry, I don't understand this disease." Zheng Ren said frankly, "I am just a doctor. I have no laboratory tests or see the patient. Even asking about the medical history seems to touch on something that Ms. Maris does not want to recall. .”
Zheng Ren said, shaking his head slightly.
"In this case, there is no way to see a doctor."
Christian seemed a little regretful. He sighed, glanced at Zheng Ren, and then glanced sideways at Maris.
"Zheng, just say it, use your doctor's first instinct to tell me whether she is cursed or sick." Christian asked.
"Kerry, you don't know how doctors treat patients?" Su Yun said disdainfully.
"Su, when Dr. Zheng diagnosed lead poisoning in the castle, the evidence was not complete. I don't think any doctor would treat the patient like that." Christian said with a smile. He took his hand off the crystal ball and raised his hand at the corner of his mouth. With an elegant smile.
"Zheng, this is your old friend's sincere request. Just say it boldly."
Zheng Ren was stunned for a moment, he didn't know why Christian would do this.
Looking carefully at the mummy-like Marys on the screen, Zheng Ren narrowed his eyes a little tighter and said in a deep voice: "The patient is not cooperative and cannot be examined. This is different from treating Mr. Roche!"
"You are still as stubborn as a stone on the Alps." Christian did not insist. He smiled and said, "Well, since you are not happy, let's stop here."
Zheng Ren breathed a sigh of relief.
If this is considered a remote consultation, it cannot be said to be a happy experience. In the middle of the night, before going to bed, I saw a mummy talking to me. It would give anyone a nightmare.
Kerry is even more unreliable than Su Yun, Zheng Ren thought to himself.
"Zheng, do you know why I want you to take a look?" Christian asked kindly.
Zheng Ren shook his head.
"When Maryse was 5 years old, I met their caravan in the moonlight. Next to the bonfire, a little girl danced happily. Unfortunately, since then, I have never seen it again."
"I know her mother. Like her, she is also a cursed person. They gain the ability to prophesy, but their bodies become... "
"Kerry, stop talking nonsense. If you had the ability to predict, would you still come to your boss? Just treat yourself." Su Yun said at the side.
"Sue, this is a logical paradox. It was Maryse's mother who told me that many years later, a lucky ordinary person who is kissed by God will walk into our world."
“…”
Zheng Ren looked at the screen and kept thinking that he was not talking about himself.
"It will make Mr. Roche live for many more years. You know... well, not to mention Mr. Roche. Maris's mother said that this lucky ordinary person will also lift the curse and prevent the tragic fate of Maris and others. As for continuing.”
"Boss, do you know that you can go to heaven?" Su Yun laughed and said.
Zheng Ren was also helpless. He looked at Christian and said, "Kerry, I'm just a doctor, an ordinary doctor."
"But you cured Mr. Roche's disease. You have to know that we rarely get sick, except for the damn sunshine... and your damn garlic fish!" Christian waved his arms and said exaggeratedly.
"I didn't know you were coming to my house, otherwise that unexpected situation wouldn't have happened." Zheng Ren said.
"Zheng, you can just say whatever you want." Christian drank all the red liquid in the goblet, his eyes flashing with strange luster, "This is not a diagnosis in the hospital, just treat it like talking to an old friend. ,chat."
Zheng Ren sighed helplessly.
"She." Zheng Ren said in a deep voice, "She has been lying all the time. This is my first feeling."
The light of the crystal ball burst out, but was shrouded in gray mist. The two forces confronted each other, and then the light dimmed again.
Christian made a gesture of invitation, indicating Zheng Ren to continue.
"My guess is that Ms. Maris wears black, loose-fitting robes at all times. That's right, Kerry."
"Yes, but what does it matter?"
"They were wearing robes, maybe to create a sense of mystery, but I feel like they were trying to cover up other things."
"It's unbelievable."
"If it's a disease, it's not a cachexia state, and there's no loss of energy or physical strength. It just has a mummy-like appearance. This reminds me of a disease, which is comparable to Ms. Maris's condition."
"So I guess Ms. Maris has been wearing a black robe to cover up the fat on her lower body."
"..." Christian was stunned.
In his opinion, Maris should look like a mummy on the banks of the Nile, but Zheng actually said he wanted to cover up the fat
He subconsciously glanced at Maris behind him.
There was a sense of fear in the eyes behind the crystal ball.
