Chapter 1646 1649: Finding the Cause But Unable to Cure?
Bazil quickly said, "He has already broken the law; it's not just a matter of medical ethics anymore. Please rest assured, Doctor Xu, we will definitely punish him severely!"
"I hope to see your sincerity. Otherwise, I don't mind personally taking action against Andrew. By that time, it might not just be Andrew from the American Medical Association who ends up dead," Xu Hao said flatly, with a thick undertone of threat in his words.
No one present doubted whether Xu Hao could follow through.
Because he truly had the capability!
Bazil immediately said, "Please rest assured, Doctor Xu; Andrew will certainly receive the punishment he deserves!"
Xu Hao nodded slightly and said, "Bring up your last patient."
Bazil had someone bring the patient who had been laughing incessantly onto the bed and then said, "This patient was found in Africa. Patients like this, when they laugh, will involuntarily shake their bodies and are unable to stop. After one to three months, their bodies start convulsing and can't stand, their eyes gradually become crossed, and they lose the ability to speak coherently until death."
Hearing this introduction, everyone couldn't help but gasp again!
It's simply too terrifying!
No wonder Bazil was so nervous when Hume was laughing uncontrollably earlier.
Perhaps he was afraid that this disease was contagious and that he himself would be infected, which is why he was so tense?
But his worries were evidently unnecessary, because Hume's laughing illness was caused by Xu Hao pressing the Laughing Acupoint.
Xu Hao looked at the African patient and said calmly, "Actually, you already know the cause of their illness, don't you?"
Bazil was stunned for a moment and said, "Doctor Xu, what do you mean by this?"
Xu Hao chuckled and said, "Your purpose in coming here is to suppress Huaya's traditional Chinese medicine and further promote your Western medicine. So, you found these strange diseases and brought them to me, hoping I couldn't cure them, thereby suppressing me in every way. This laughing disease patient is your last and strongest means to suppress me.
After all, you were certain that when I suddenly encountered this person, I couldn't possibly guess the cause of his illness, whereas you already knew. By comparing, the superiority of traditional Chinese medicine or Western medicine would be instantly clear. This is your scheme, am I right?"
Bazil clasped his hands and said, "Impressive! Our family has information on you, saying that your control over information is extremely strong. But I didn't expect that even though we were so cautious, you still managed to uncover some of our information!"
Xu Hao said calmly, "It's just an information network, nothing worth mentioning. But your desire to humiliate me has never died! Since you won't say it, let me say it directly. In Africa, there is a place where there is a custom of sharing deceased relatives' corpses, and in this place, many people develop the laughing disease, eventually dying from continuous laughter as their bodies succumb to disease. Bazil, am I right?"
Bazil immediately said, "Right, everything you said is correct! It seems you really stole our intelligence!"
"Stealing? It's just that your information storage is garbage. When we fetched the information, it was as easy and relaxed as strolling in our own backyard," Xu Hao said with a relaxed smile.
Hume suddenly interjected, "Hmph! So what if you know the cause of the illness? It's still futile if you can't find a cure!"
"You're absolutely right. If I can't find a cure for him, then all this talk is superfluous. But if I can cure him, will you kneel and apologize to me, calling me 'Grandpa'?" Xu Hao looked mischievously at Hume and chuckled.
Hume looked at Xu Hao and suddenly said, "Fine! I agree to bet with you. Since I have nothing now, what do I have to lose by gambling with you? But if you don't cure this patient, then I win, and Bazil, you must retract all my punishments and publicly apologize to me!"
Bazil said plainly, "I will not participate in the bet."
Xu Hao chuckled, "Even if Bazil doesn't bet, I will bet. If you win, I will persuade Bazil to retract all punishments against you. How about that?"
"Hmph! You are you, and Bazil is Bazil. Can you control what Bazil does?" Hume said with disbelief all over his face.
"Naturally, if you don't believe I have that ability, you can choose not to believe me. But then you'll miss the chance to regain a very high social status. Between the two, do you believe I have that ability or not?" Xu Hao spoke calmly, handing the choice to Hume.
But in reality, Hume had no choice!
