I Am A Prodigy Chapter 205

It was definitely Wind-Heat Syndrome Flu!
Xiao Feifei had probably been ill for quite some time already, but Ye Lingchen did not notice anything peculiar previously. He believed that it was just a simple cold, but he was negligent.
Ye Lingchen's eyes lit up and he immediately called Xiao Feifei.
"Hello, Lingchen?" Sister Lin was the one who answered the phone. Her voice a little weak.
"Sister Lin, where's Sister Feifei?"
"She... She's asleep."
"Asleep?" Ye Lingchen heart skipped a beat after hearing that she was sleeping in the daytime. "Did she get Wind-Heat Syndrome Flu?!"
"This…"
There was no need for him to go on talking. Deep down, Ye Lingchen was sure of it. He said not a single word and hurried immediately to where Xiao Feifei was staying.
When he passed by a pharmacy, he stopped, rushed in, and quickly bought a few pieces of Chinese medicine.
It was already two o'clock in the afternoon when he arrived at Xiao Feifei's villa.
After knocking on the front gate for a solid three minutes, the villa door barely opened a crack. Sister Lin stuck her head out slowly. "Lingchen, you really shouldn't have come."
Ye Lingchen immediately pushed open the door and looked at Sister Lin. "You have Wind-Heat Syndrome Flu too?"
Sister Lin looked very weak. Her face was pale and her cheeks were flush—obvious signs of a fever.
"Lingchen, you should leave now!" Sister Lin was anxious. "Wind-Heat Syndrome Flu is also contagious between adults."
"Where's Sister Feifei?" Ye Lingchen looked solemn. He walked towards Xiao Feifei's room without saying another word.
Xiao Feifei 's room was warmly decorated, but at this time, the whole room was filled with the smell of medicine.
"Lingchen, what are you doing?" Xiao Feifei's expression changed as soon as she saw Ye Lingchen.
Her voice was hoarse and inaudible as if something was stuck in her throat and she was having difficulty speaking.
She then began coughing severely.
In a span of just a few days, her face had slimmed down considerably. Her once beautiful face was so emaciated that it was utterly heartbreaking.

"Please just leave now. The virus is everywhere in this room," Xiao Feifei said urgently.
"I won't leave! Sister Feifei, why didn't you tell me such an important thing earlier." Ye Lingchen walked to the bed and felt Xiao Feifei's pulse.
"It's useless. I've received tons of treatment from different doctors ever since I became ill. Currently, both our country and other countries are helpless to deal with this Wind-Heat Syndrome Flu." As Xiao Feifei faced Ye Lingchen, the calmness she previously had finally disappeared. She could not hold in her tears anymore.
Wind-Heat Syndrome Flu spelled a slow and painful death. She feared death too, but she pretended to remain strong.
"You should go. I'm happy enough that you came and see me. Let me pass on quietly." Xiao Feifei was voiceless from crying. She tried to push Ye Lingchen away, but she did not have any strength to do so.
"Lingchen, please go away now. Don't let us infect you," Sister Lin persuaded.
Quarantine was a must once a person was discovered to have Wind-Heat Syndrome Flu. Xiao Feifei and Sister Lin were prepared to spend their last moments there silently, without letting the outside world know.
"Sister Feifei, Sister Lin, this disease... I can cure it!" Ye Lingchen said suddenly.
"What?" Xiao Feifei thought her ears were mistaken. She looked at Ye Lingchen in a daze, then shook her head and said, "Lingchen, there's no need to lie to me. Just hurry up and go."
Ye Lingchen looked at Xiao Feifei. His eyes were glowing when she stared at her. "Sister Feifei, do you believe in miracles?"
The initial paleness in Xiao Feifei's face was suddenly filled with an embarrassed blush when Ye Lingchen looked at her that way. She was speechless.
"I have medical knowledge. Very powerful medical knowledge." Ye Lingchen continued.
He then took out the eight silver needles previously given to him by Grandmaster Jiang and laid them out on Xiao Feifei's bed.
"The pulse points on the bottom of the foot are connected to the whole body. I'll use acupuncture to improve your body's Qi and blood. That way, you can resist the flu virus in your body." Ye Lingchen said.

"There really is a way?" Ye Lingchen's serious demeanor left Xiao Feifei and Sister Lin rather stunned.
"Just try and you'll know." Ye Lingchen smiled. He had already walked to the end of the bed.
"Okay. Give it a try..." Xiao Feifei's voice was hoarse when she said that, and it was more like a whisper. She stretched out her feet from the blanket slowly.
They were very petite and delicate.
"Sister Feifei, relax, don't be nervous," Ye Lingchen said.
Xiao Feifei buried her head in the blanket. She felt increasingly powerless throughout her body and she secretly looked at Ye Lingchen from under the quilt.
A girl's feet were already special enough to begin with, but when Ye Lingchen looked carefully at it then, it made her incredibly shy.
Next, she felt a slight numbness in her feet, as if something had pierced into it.
In addition to being painless, there was even a cool feeling spreading all over her body from the puncture site.
The second needle went in almost immediately after.
"Humph!"
She moaned. The needle's pricking made her tremble all over. Numb and itchy though it may be, but it was also very comfortable.
Ye Lingchen maintained a serious look. He did the acupuncture slowly because he did not dare to let himself be distracted.
There were thousands of pulse points on a foot and the slightest deviation would lead to a mistake. Ye Lingchen was much too afraid to be negligent.
"So comfortable ..."
Xiao Feifei could not help but exclaim during the acupuncture session. Her pale face gradually became ruddy once more.
She felt several warm currents emanating from the needles' insertion site. It began to flow within her body, and gradually restored her strength. The warm current was able to dispel the cold in her body and she shuddered instinctively.
Sensations gradually began returning to her once-weak body.
"It's working!" Xiao Feifei's eyes were filled with surprise. "I feel like I'm hungry ..."
It had been five days since she had a decent meal. She forced herself to eat whenever it was time to eat, and under those circumstances, her physical condition got worse.
Eating was the body's basic need.
She craved food for the first time in so many days.
"I'll bring you some porridge." Sister Lin vigor seemed to come back too. She was not going to neglect that request, so she went to the kitchen and brought back a bowl of porridge for Xiao Feifei.
"Lingchen, how long will this acupuncture session last?" Xiao Feifei was a little embarrassed.
She began to make a wheezing sound. Her face was flushed red, her eyes were shifty, and her whole body was twitching.
"It's almost done. What's wrong?" Ye Lingchen looked at Xiao Feifei but finally realized quickly.
Acupuncture promoted blood, and at the same time, many functions of the human body would also be boosted. Xiao Feifei's likely had no control over her bodily functions and she was burning from head to toe as if she had a high fever.
His hastiness made him briefly unable to exert proper control over his pressure, thus overdoing it slightly.
"How about...we stop first?" Xiao Feifei looked at Ye Lingchen. Her eyes were in a daze and she felt that an accident was waiting to happen if she went on like that. The blood in her body was flowing fast and her entire body was heating up.
"Ahem. It's done." Ye Lingchen cleared his throat and retracted his hand in embarrassment.
The process may have been rather tortuous, but he finally managed to ascertain the accuracy of his train of thought regarding the treatment. Wind-Heat Syndrome Flu could be controlled and treated...

In Another World with Doraemon's 4D Pocket
Cary found himself awoken in a foreign land with what he thought was a nondescript white pouch. Reaching into the white pouch, he was able to pull out an assortment of gadgets that he recognized to be from his favorite childhood show, Doraemon. With the thousands of mischievous, powerful gadgets inside the 4D pocket, Cary will take on this new world by storm! Something ridiculous I will write purely for fun alongside my main story Giantslayer As a disclaimer, I may nerf some of the most broken gadgets or even not use them at all. Doraemon was insane for a children manga (e.g. Doraemon canonically has a nuclear bomb inside his 4D pocket), some of the gadgets have the potential to end this story in one chapter. The most important factor is fun so anything that completely breaks the story might not be mentioned at all (or we will pretend they do not exist in the 4D pocket). We may find uses for those broken gadgets in the future, though. I am not particularly good at writing comedy. There will of course be funny moments (at least I hope they are funny) but everyone in this story will actually behave in a realistic(?) and serious manner. I want the serious world to contrast with some of the wacky gadgets that are available.
