Midnight consultation, young girl, treatment for skin allergy, strange red skin.
Recently, there were quite a number of cases that fulfilled the first three criteria but Tian Yi was the only one that fulfilled the last criteria. Based on today's calculation, her consultation date was one week ago and the onset of illness was one day earlier.
On that day, Phecda destroyed 16 communication points of the Afterlife Cult and Gu Jun's team killed a blood red larva.
From the looks of it, the ritual did not stop or a new ritual had been initiated. In any case, the enemy had no choice but to initiate the incident or else the scale of the epidemic would have been much worse. The six cultist suspects who were still alive were still being interrogated, but they were too deranged to say anything.
At the start of the incident, misfortune fell on Tian Yi, the 18-year-old girl. She had only started her live stream for a week.
When Gu Jun read through her information, he could not help but be quiet. This was a normal person who worked hard for a better life.
She had disappeared but the exact time of her disappearance was still unclear.
According to the current investigation, the last witness was Doctor Liang. At the time, he gave her a dexamethasone injection and prescribed a week's worth of medication. He charged her 200 RMB, it was very expensive. Doctor Liang was not told what happened. Recalling the incident that night, he said confusedly, "Nothing special, just a skin allergy. She left after the injection … The dogs outside were barking like crazy. They kept on barking for so long that I couldn't fall asleep even after I returned home."
'Why were the dogs barking? Other than Tian Yi, was there someone else or something else? '
Tian Yi did not go to work that day. She had asked for a day off in the morning, this proved that she was still alive at the time. From that day onwards, she did not go to work, did not do any livestreams, did not call anyone. She did not even log into her social media accounts. Therefore, something else must have happened that night …
Three days later, her supervisor could not get through to her phone. He thought she had run away. Her friends did not look for her either. They heard she had skin allergy so they thought she would be fine in a few days. Before the rent was collected, her landlord would not ask about her and the neighbors would not pay attention to her either.
There used to be some surveillance cameras in the village, but they had long been broken and no one had repaired them. They were usually just for show and did not provide any information.
Tian Yi's parents divorced many years ago. She grew up as a left-behind child. She did not have much contact with her parents.
For a person like her, if it wasn't for this matter, even if she disappeared for a longer period of time, perhaps no one would waste the effort to find her.
Because of this, when she disappeared and where she went were still shrouded in mystery. However, Phecda had already sent out investigators to investigate. They were using all their resources to search for clues. After all, she would not vanish into thin air. As long as they had enough time to investigate, there should still be clues.
The only good news was that it seemed to indicate that the disease was not contagious, because no other patients had appeared in that village so far.
Gu Jun showed the information to Deng Ximei, but she shook her head, unable to sense anything.
That was the current situation. Xie Yiman's surgery had to continue.
After disinfecting and putting on surgical scrubs, when Gu Jun's group entered the interventional surgery room, the patient was already lying on the surgery table. Her body was secured securely. The Ancient Seal Stone was set up. In the middle of the room was the surgery table. Facing the patient's head was a C-arm X-ray machine. There were various monitoring devices and cameras around it.
"How is it?" Uncle Dan asked when he noticed Gu Jun take a deep breath.
"It feels like it's been a long time since I've stepped into a surgery room." Gu Jun said. Indeed, it had been a long time since he had performed a surgery in a surgery room.
"Tycoon Jun, you've been saving lives." Cai Zixuan sighed.
Gu Jun nodded silently. There was going to be a battle soon, so he had to keep his guard up.
Wu Shiyu, Deng Ximei and the members of the Ancient Seal Stone moved to the side while the medical team moved to the surgery table. Xie Yiman looked at them nervously. Even though Gu Jun had given her psychological intervention and told her the surgery plan, she was still so anxious.
"Relax, just relax." Gu Jun comforted her. "For this kind of minimally invasive surgery, normal patients can do it without anesthesia. I believe you'll be fine."
Si Kouxian and Zhang Jinsong also offered their consolation. This was not a major surgery.
Gu Jun accepted a disposable medical skin marker from the nurse. Combined with the preoperative radiographic films, he personally marked the location of the puncture point on her face. In other words, he drew the puncture point and direction so that the main surgeon could apply the needle. Gu Jun nodded. "That's right.
"Wu, wu …" Xie Yiman started to whimper. She was enveloped by the fear of being slaughtered.
First, Gu Jun marked down the puncture point on her face. Then Zhang Jinsong operated the LNG30-1 radiofrequency scanner to locate the foramen ovale on the side of her skull. The surgery required the needle to pierce through the foramen ovale from her face to destroy the meniscus of the trigeminal nerve. After that, the left side would be moved on.
When the X-ray generator of the radiofrequency scanner turned to face the patient, the patient's foramen ovale was clearly visible on the X-ray screen.
Si Kouxian had already picked up a thin needle. The tip of the needle glowed coldly.
Over at the command central, the medical experts were watching. This was the world's first radiofrequency lesion treatment for the Mutated Scale Disease.
Gu Jun disinfected Xie Yiman's grotesquely injured face and then covered it with a sterile drape. Her vision turned black and she screamed, "No, no! Let me see, let me see! " Gu Jun asked the nurse to change a new sheet that was smaller and only covered her face. It did not block her vision.
"It'll be fine." He comforted, "It's just a small surgery."
Holding the needle, Si Kouxian leaned closer to the surgical area. With the help of the oblique X-ray, he inserted the needle into the lower edge of the zygomaticomaxillary suture …
The angle of the needle insertion was precisely calculated using trigonometric functions. It had to follow the direction of the puncture and enter the foramen ovale.
The needle pierced into Xie Yiman's diseased red skin. Under Si Kouxian's control, the needle slowly disappeared into Xie Yiman's face. When the needle entered the foramen ovale, Si Kouxian could feel an obvious suction force on the tip of the needle. The needle was successfully in place.
But at that moment, Xie Yiman felt an explosion of pain on her face. She couldn't help but scream, "Ah!!"
"Does it feel like you've been electrocuted?" Gu Jun quickly asked. Electrocution was a normal reaction.
"I don't know, it's very painful …" She groaned.
Even though she couldn't say it, she was still conscious and the rationality assessment stone did not react. Gu Jun nodded at Si Kouxian and the rest. They should continue.
"The needle is in place." Zhang Jingsong studied the oblique X-ray image on the screen. He could see a black shadow on it, it was the needle.
"The needle is in, it's in successfully!" Gu Jun encouraged Xie Yiman, who was getting more agitated. "Hang in there, it'll be over soon."
At the same time, the specialists communicated and adjusted the depth of the needle. Then, they set the electrocution location. The patient felt the corresponding pain. The location was correct but the itch was still there. The nurse then set the temperature and time on the control panel. The temperature would slowly rise to 80 degrees Celsius. There would be three thermocoagulations and each one would last for 90 seconds.
After the wires were all connected, Gu Jun stood next to the control panel and stared at the start button.
Once this button was pressed, the pain sensing function of the trigeminal nerve on the right side of Xie Yiman's face would be destroyed.
"Yiman, hang in there, it's coming." He said, and with everyone's attention, he pressed the start button.
"Ah …" Xie Yiman screamed in pain. If not for the fact that her limbs, torso and head were immobilized, she would have collapsed to the ground already.
The temperature of the condensation was rising, and her pain was getting worse. Something was burning in her face, and something was burning in her brain …
The worms were writhing and crawling. The worms were enraged by the heat …
