NOVPUBLi Guotai looked at Wu Bin in an excited state, frowning as he said, "It’s not impossible." 𝔫𝔬𝖛𝖕𝔲𝖇.𝖈𝖔𝖒
"After all, this kid has a special physique. Maybe something in his body reacted with the rabies virus, which is why the disease manifested so early."
Professor Zeng was utterly speechless on the side.
Your hypothesis is even more preposterous than mine.
Just replaced it with ’something,’ huh.
While the two were puzzled, Wu Bin suddenly calmed down.
Wu Bin looked down and realized he had been tied up.
Wu Bin immediately felt anxious.
"Director Li, why have you tied me up? You’re not going to section me, are you?"
Hearing Wu Bin say this, both Li Guotai and Professor Zeng were taken aback.
"Wu Bin, have you regained your senses now?"
Wu Bin didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.
"I’ve always been rational. I was just... a bit agitated just now."
Li Guotai and Professor Zeng’s eyes lit up.
They had never seen a rabies patient have such a rational conversation with them!
"Quick! Get the heads of all departments here, hook up the testing equipment for Wu Bin!"
"Is the camera on? Record everything!"
Li Guotai was beside himself with excitement.
He had thought he would have to watch Wu Bin succumb to the ravages of the rabies virus in the coming days.
But unexpectedly, Wu Bin had managed to regain his sanity!
This was simply a medical miracle!
Seeing the big fuss Li Guotai was making, Wu Bin felt even more helpless.
"Director Li, is all this necessary? You’re treating me like I’m a giant panda, and now it’s being recorded."
"How about you untie me first, and we can discuss this slowly?"
Li Guotai shook his head sternly.
"No, although you’ve temporarily regained your sanity, rabies has already manifested. If we don’t restrict your behavior, I’m afraid you might suddenly become violent and infect us with the virus."
Hey, you old cautious man, you certainly cherish life.
Wu Bin said helplessly, "I’m really fine now. I admit I was a bit agitated just now, but I’ve completely recovered."
"Don’t believe me? You can test me."
Li Guotai paid no attention to what Wu Bin was saying.
According to common medical knowledge, after the onset of rabies, the patient’s mind becomes abnormal.
They become irritable and excited.
Commonly known as ’mad dog brain.’
At Li Guotai’s signal, several fully equipped male nurses dressed in protective gear then unlocked Wu Bin’s restraints, moved him from the chair to the bed, and hooked him up to various monitoring devices.
Wu Bin cooperated fully throughout the whole process, without showing any signs of violence.
This made Professor Zeng standing on the side begin to wonder.
"Old Li, could it be that Wu Bin’s rabies really cured itself?"
Li Guotai looked at him as if he was an idiot.
"Have you ever heard of rabies curing itself? I have often seen suicides, though."
That being said, Wu Bin’s physique is different from ordinary people.
So, Li Guotai still prepared to conduct some tests on him.
After confirming Wu Bin was tied securely, Li Guotai went over and said, "Wu Bin, I’m going to perform some simple tests on you now. Based on your reactions, we’ll see your current condition. You need to try your best to control your emotions and body, okay?"
Wu Bin was full of confidence.
"What are you talking about, Director Li? Don’t worry, I have very strong self-control. If I lose control of my emotions later, you can say I lost, okay?"
Li Guotai said indifferently.
"Mineral water."
The moment Wu Bin heard the word ’water,’ his face changed dramatically, and he reached out to grab his throat.
"Ah! Ah! It’s so uncomfortable!"
"I’m suffocating! Someone help me!"
Li Guotai: ...
Wu Bin felt as if he was truly going to suffocate, writhing on the bed like a maggot.
It took a full two minutes before Wu Bin emerged from that intense feeling of suffocation and pain.
Wu Bin, panting heavily, said to Li Guotai, "Director Li, aren’t you lacking in martial virtue? Why bring up that word all of a sudden?"
Because the ward had the TV station’s audio equipment, the online audience in the live broadcast room could hear Li Guotai and Wu Bin’s conversation clearly.
"No, what’s wrong with Brother Wu? Wasn’t he just fine a moment ago? How did he suddenly become like this?"
"Hydrophobia is the most common symptom when rabies strikes, but when you talk to a rabies patient about things related to water, he will subconsciously think of the action of drinking."
"However, drinking requires swallowing, and because of the virus, the patient is already unable to control the muscles in their throat at this point, so just thinking about the act of swallowing will cause spasms, just like Brother Wu a moment ago."
The netizens instantly felt very sorry for Wu Bin.
Doesn’t that mean Wu Bin can never drink water again?
Li Guotai said indifferently, "Didn’t you say you could control yourself?"
"I really can."
"Don’t believe me, test it again."
Li Guotai nodded his head.
"This time, I won’t say it, you say it yourself, and I’ll see if you’ll have that reaction."
Li Guotai instructed his assistant to take notes, then began to ask:
"What is it that you must drink every day?"
Upon hearing Li Guotai ask this question, Wu Bin’s complexion turned ugly again.
However, just when everyone thought Wu Bin was about to have another episode, Wu Bin forcefully suppressed the urge in his mind and answered:
"Milk tea."
Li Guotai’s eyebrows rose as he continued to ask, "What’s the most abundant thing in milk tea?"
Wu Bin answered very seriously, "Ice."
"What’s ice when it melts?"
"Spring."
Li Guotai: ???
What the heck?
Okay, okay, you’re playing this game with me, huh?
Playing the keyword avoidance game with me?
Wu Bin shrugged his shoulders at Li Guotai.
"How is it, Director Li? Didn’t I say my self-control is very strong?"
Li Guotai became angry.
"Strong my ass! I wanted you to say that word yourself, to test if you would react, and here you are farting around with me!"
"Again!"
Li Guotai loosened the buttons on his collar, feeling his blood pressure rising.
"I ask you, what covers seventy percent of the Earth?"
"The ocean."
"What’s in the ocean?"
"Fish."
"Without what would a fish die?"
"Gills."
Li Guotai: ...
The people around were shocked once more.
Could it be that the rabies virus can also change the patient’s train of thought?
Li Guotai was not content.
The dignified dean, could he really be outplayed by this kid Wu Bin?
Today, I must make you say that word!
Li Guotai continued to ask angrily, "What is ’water’?"
"H2O."
"What’s H2O!"
"Dihydrogen monoxide."
"What is dihydrogen monoxide!"
"An inorganic compound."
Li Guotai fell silent once again.
He just couldn’t stump him!
