Nearly five in the afternoon, in a quiet room at the Affiliated Hospital's diagnostic department.
A whiteboard lists over twenty symptoms, including proteinuria, hallucinations, auditory hallucinations, epilepsy, spasms, pleural effusion, pericardial effusion, vomiting, jaundice, high fever, and rashes.
Lin Jie stands motionless in front of the whiteboard, seemingly lost in thought over these symptoms.
Beside him stands He Yimin.
She looks as if she needs to urgently use the restroom, shifting restlessly and tiptoeing from side to side, yet she dares not make a single sound, fearing to disturb Lin Jie's thoughts.
It's no wonder He Yimin is anxious; these symptoms on the whiteboard belong to a young female patient whose condition is critically dangerous, and she might not make it through.
No one, including her, in the diagnostic department can figure out exactly what this patient's illness is.
Without identifying the root cause, targeted treatment is impossible.
