Chapter 806 Key Case, Confidentiality Agreement

At first, the medical team thought that they were only going to solve a relatively new disease that had not appeared or been made public before.

But when they landed in Cuiping, they actually saw and came into contact with the cases.

One member of the team blurted out the thought that was popping into the minds of most of the team members: "Is this a disease? Are you sure it's not evolution?"

The team leaders, including the youngest among them with gray hair, who were standing at the very front, along with Ye Mingxin standing behind her master, looked at the little girl in front of them with her big, black grape-like eyes staring blankly at them, and their expressions turned solemn.

Based on what they learned after arriving here, these people with strange symptoms all had one thing in common.

That is, not long ago, they were both diagnosed with terminal illnesses and were deemed to have no time to live with them, with no cure and only end-of-life care available.

Why do we say they were diagnosed with a terminal illness not long ago? Because the terminal illnesses they originally had have now disappeared from their bodies!

Not only that, these people's bodies became stronger than ordinary people. Not only did they become stronger, but their faces and bodies also seemed to have been optimized. Regardless of age or gender, they became more and more good-looking. There were even two elderly cases that showed signs of rejuvenation.

On the surface, it does indeed resemble the evolution that people have learned about from movies or novels.

However, these changes have a powerful side effect that cannot be ignored.

People are no longer the same people they used to be!

Literally!

Team leaders like Yuan Zheng, based on their confidence in their own medical research and years of practice, were able to sensitively perceive the abnormalities in the patients.

Although Ye Mingxin's medical skills were not as good as her master's, she had seen and experienced the more hidden side of this world, and even had an unusual daughter-in-law by her side. Her intuition was that these patients were not right.

The little girl sitting obediently in front of them right now is the very first case they found.

The little girl's name is Qiaoqiao. Her home is in a village at the foot of Cuiping Mountain. She is an only child. Qiaoqiao's parents have already sold everything they own to treat their daughter's illness, but in the end, they could only take their incurable daughter back to their empty home.

The couple, who had finally accepted reality, had already prepared everything and were just waiting...

One day, Qiaoqiao's father found a severely injured person at his doorstep who was on the verge of dying. Out of kindness, he helped the person into his home and asked his wife to take care of him while he went to the village toilet to call a doctor.

It's not that they didn't want to call an ambulance directly, it's that their family was so poor that they even had to sell their cell phone!
Qiaoqiao's mother, who stayed at home to help take care of the injured, never expected that the person her husband had rescued would wake up as soon as he left.

After drinking a bowl of warm water, he insisted on getting up to leave.

Before leaving, the man glanced at Qiaoqiao, who was lying on the small bed next door, breathing weakly, and suddenly asked Qiaoqiao's mother, "Do you want your daughter to live?"

Qiaoqiao's mother was taken aback at first, but after regaining her composure, she nodded without hesitation: "I want to, but..."

Even if your daughter no longer looks like your daughter?

At first, Qiaoqiao's mother didn't understand the meaning of these words and just nodded repeatedly, "As long as Qiaoqiao can live, anything is fine."

The man was quite straightforward; he simply reached out and pried open the little girl's mouth, then fed her something.

Qiaoqiao's mother didn't have time to stop him. She rushed to check on her daughter. When she found out that her daughter was alright, her husband also brought back the village doctor. Only then did she discover that the man had disappeared.

The matter would have ended there, and Qiaoqiao's mother didn't believe the man's claim that her daughter could survive.

But soon the couple discovered that their originally weak daughter was visibly getting better. From being able to lie motionless at the beginning, she was able to sit up on her own and take a few steps... In less than a month, she was no different from a healthy child.

As soon as his daughter's condition began to improve, Qiaoqiao's father learned from his wife what the person he had saved had given their daughter before leaving.

However, the matter was so bizarre that the couple tacitly chose to keep quiet about it, and even planned to move to a place where no one knew them.

But secrets don't stay hidden forever, especially in a small village where there are hardly any secrets. Qiaoqiao, who had miraculously recovered from a terminal illness, eventually caught the attention of the villagers, and this became a major news story that shook the entire village.

Not long after, people from a neighboring village who were also suffering from terminal illnesses came to visit.

Qiaoqiao's parents had no choice but to reveal that they had encountered a miracle doctor who fed their daughter a pill and then disappeared.

But the so-called miracle doctor searched everywhere to no avail, and in despair, this man developed feelings for Qiaoqiao.

He secretly took a vial of blood from the young girl and then promptly transfused it into his own body.

It was just a last resort, but it actually worked.

It's just that the recovery wasn't as fast or the changes were as obvious as Qiaoqiao's own, since it was only 'indirect treatment'.

As for what will happen next, you don't need to ask to know.

If a person wants to survive, they will do anything.

Fortunately, as more people became aware of it, a balance was maintained.

In addition, the strange side effects that occurred during the recovery process also curbed some of the greed and slowed the spread of the disease, ultimately keeping the cases under control in the Cuiping area.

It can be said that all other cases that have emerged today are extensions of Qiaoqiao's case.

“This child is the key!” Yuan Zheng reached out and gently touched the little girl’s knitted hat on her head, then looked at Qiaoqiao’s parents, who were standing behind her looking uneasy.

At first glance, Qiaoqiao really doesn't look like this couple's child.

The couple both have very ordinary faces; they're the kind of people you wouldn't notice in a crowd.

Although Qiaoqiao is still young, her features are more outstanding than those of child stars who have withstood the test of the camera. It's not hard to imagine how stunning she will be when she grows up.

But they had seen Qiaoqiao's previous photos, which were completely different from her current appearance; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say she had undergone a face transplant.

Your daughter is no longer like your daughter. What I couldn't understand at first has now become a reality.

Is this person still the same person?
“Our medical team will officially be stationed at your village clinic starting today. We will be here to study Qiaoqiao’s physical changes over the next period of time. Please rest assured, we will not harm her.”

Qiaoqiao's parents are now somewhat numb, and even feel a sense of unfamiliarity when they look at their daughter now. After hearing these words, they just mechanically nod and say, "Okay, okay."

Upon arriving at the village clinic, seeing that some team members were still somewhat distracted, Yuan Zheng immediately ordered: "Due to the special nature of the illness discovered this time, it is strictly forbidden to spread outside, not even to your family members. Otherwise, you will be expelled from the sect and the matter will be announced. Come and sign a confidentiality agreement after you put down your luggage."

The other two team leaders exchanged a glance and nodded. "I second that."

After all, these days, which family or friend doesn't have elderly or sick members?

This time, I really dare not test people's hearts!

So when Li Chengxiao received Ye Mingxin's call that evening, before he could even ask if he had seen the patient, he was told, "I just signed a confidentiality agreement. I can't even mention my family. Your father was left at a hotel in the city and wasn't allowed to come along, since he's considered family too."

Li Chengxiao: "..." He glanced at Jiang Hanying, who was still waiting expectantly across from him, and made one last effort, "Then can you find a word to describe this disease? If not, then forget it."

"All I can say is, it's amazing."

Li Chengxiao: "..."

It's better not to describe it at all!
