Chapter 19: Damn, I've Been Fooled! (Thanks for the 100,000 reward from Taiping Stone Laughing Heartily!)_1

Qin Xuehai was rendered speechless by Chen Gong's tirade, his mouth twitching as he couldn't help but ask:

"You...do you also know forensic medicine?"

Chen Gong smiled modestly, "I know a little bit, just the basics."

Qin Xuehai immediately fell apart.

This is a little bit?

Do you have any misunderstanding about 'basics'?

Chen Gong: I understand, the human epidermis is the largest immune system and is also the most awesome tissue.

...

Not only Qin Xuehai but the whole class was stunned into silence, looking as dumbfounded as chickens.

Their expressions were no better than the skeleton onstage.

Brother...

Are we even in the same year?

Are we studying the same clinical major?

With you like this... where do we put our faces?

We might as well jump into this formalin and donate our bodies!

Is it necessary to torment our young, simple, and innocent hearts like this?

Qin Xuehai was also speechless, unable to say a word for a long time.

He was no better off.

As a student of a clinical college, do you need to study "Forensic Anthropology Gender Identification"? As a sophomore, do you need to delve into SCI papers outside your major?

Do you...need to study specialized medical subjects?

Is this appropriate?

Is this reasonable?

This is just too unusual?!

[Ding! Unusual points +300!]

[Ding!...]

...

Chen Gong, listening to the incessant sound by his ear, felt awkward too.

This is unusual again?

Chen Gong hurriedly explained:

"Actually...I mean...in fact, Mr. Qin is already quite impressive."

"After all, what I just spoke about belongs to the field of 'Specialized Medicine' tissue identification, and even referred to a paper by Professor Tang, a giant in our country's forensic medicine. That was his report from a world forensic competition."

"Actually, it is already quite remarkable for Mr. Qin to tell the difference between the cervical angles..."

"These things, being an expert well-versed in clinical surgery like Mr. Qin, it's actually... quite normal not to know..."

"Hmm, by saying this, I want everyone to understand that medicine is an applied science, and anatomy shouldn't be confined to human anatomy. Perhaps we should open our minds and read more professional journals and books..."

"Also, to give this Mr. Skeleton a complete skeleton!"

"This...should be easy to understand for a medical student, right?"

Chen Gong touched his nose, explaining further.

But...

These explanations were worse than no explanation at all, only serving to make things darker.

Even Qin Xuehai, whose face had long been eroded by formaldehyde fumes, had his defenses broken in the moment Chen Gong explained.

Is this...normal?

Not normal at all, okay?

You, this student, have no sense of shame! I'm discussing anatomy with you, and you're talking about forensic medicine with me?

Is that appropriate?

The most crucial point is... Qin Xuehai never expected Chen Gong to be so brutally blunt and smear his face with embarrassment without any mercy.

Save my face?!

I don't want it!

You really don't have to do this!

Now I don't have any dignity left...

...

Qin Xuehai cleared his throat, forcibly salvaging his dignity by saying, "Hmm, this student...is quite remarkable, covering a broad range of studies."

"But still, in our clinical medicine, we should focus on clinical purposes, and specialized medicine serves its own role."

"Hmm, after all, a person's energy is limited!"

"Alright, let's talk about this topic later."

"Let's start the class now!"

During the speech, Qin Xuehai forcefully shifted the topic

At this moment, Shou Weixiang suddenly couldn't help but ask, "Teacher, was what Chen Gong said just now correct?"

The chalk Qin Xuehai was holding suddenly snapped with a "crack"!

Why mention what shouldn't be mentioned?!

What's your name, student?

Stand up!

You don't need to come to this class anymore. Prepare for a makeup exam!

But his name was Chen Gong, right?

Qin Xuehai looked at Chen Gong, nodded and smiled.

"About that question, even though what Chen Gong just said made a lot of sense, the professional matters should be left to the professionals to handle."

"I'm not in a position to judge whether it's correct or not."

"But don't worry, I'll definitely give you a definitive answer before the next class."

"By the way, our next class is a practical anatomy class."

"Then everyone will experience the essence of dissection firsthand."

After saying this, Qin Xuehai directly started the class.

Chen Gong had originally planned to listen attentively to the class.

But...gradually, he realized, is Qin Xuehai not quite himself today?

Focus and attention were a bit lacking!

So much so that Chen Gong could treat the lecture as background music.

[Ding! Find Differences task!

Task 1: Find the difference;

Upon completion, receive a reward of 500 points.]

Upon hearing the system prompt, Chen Gong's face lit up with joy—it seemed... he was right.

Indeed, "touching related fields brings enlightenment" made a lot of sense; besides... it's normal for a medical student to know some forensic knowledge, right?

Who can guarantee what you'll end up doing after graduation?

The saying "multiple skills will not weigh you down" is well understood by those in the know!

However, at this moment, he suddenly noticed something.

After this morning's shenanigans...

His points seemed to have exceeded ten thousand.

[Unusual System Points: 11790 points.]

Nearly twelve thousand!

Mr. Qin had provided him with quite a few points!

Should he go for a ten-pull draw?

At this moment, the ten-consecutive-draw interface was already glowing, signalling to Chen Gong that rewards were imminent with the draw!

Ten consecutive draws!

How long did you work for this moment?

After a moment of contemplation, Chen Gong hesitated for just a second before closing the draw interface.

He stared at several baskets of bones behind him, lost in thought.

To search or not?

A thousand points for finding it!

Search it is then!

[Ding! Would you like to start a ten-consecutive draw? Friendly reminder, the draw guarantees an operational skill!]

Chen Gong closed it decisively.

Would I lose points if I don't draw?

Unusual System: ???

Are you normal?

Chen Gong didn't care, listening to Qin Xuehai's lecture while taking out bones to observe carefully.

Firstly, it would deepen his learning memory.

Secondly, it would allow him to complete tasks!

It was killing several birds with one stone!

In fact, Chen Gong didn't like to get distracted during class, but... it was mainly because Mr. Qin wasn't quite himself today, failing to raise points that would provoke deep thought and consideration from Chen Gong.

He didn't know that it was already a great feat for Qin Xuehai to deliver the lecture normally and without mixing things up!

Meanwhile, Mr. Qin, standing on the podium, looked at Chen Gong handling a bone while listening to him and felt a little irked.

This kid...

So arrogant!

Just because he knows a bit of various things...

Is there a need to be so brash?!

Do you really think my class is that simple?

The homework will make you beg for mercy!

The end-of-class bell rang promptly.

Chen Gong, at the last second, finally identified the correct femur.

Accompanied by a series of crisp system sounds, Chen Gong smiled happily.

After all, it counted as a good deed.

This poor fellow from the last years of the Ming Dynasty, forced into service hundreds of years later, not to mention his bones were misplaced—if his original wife knew there was another woman's femur on him, wouldn't that be outrageous?

After the bell rang, Chen Gong, happily holding the bone, prepared to find Qin Xuehai.

Tao Shengnan, seeing this, hurriedly said, "Chen Gong, this thing... can't be taken away!"

"The teacher said, you can only take away your own tissue..."

Chen Gong was speechless and ignored her.

He walked straight to the podium and handed it to Qin Xuehai, "Mr. Qin, this should be his right femur."

Qin Xuehai looked at the bone and smiled slightly, "Oh?"

"Alright, I'll have someone take a look when I have time."

Although Chen Gong had disturbed him a bit, Qin Xuehai still had appreciation for his professionalism and knowledge.

What a pity!

He was only a sophomore.

Otherwise, with proper grooming and participating in anatomy knowledge and skills competitions, it wouldn't be impossible.

He was a promising young seedling.

Qin Xuehai smiled, "Are you sure you're not mistaken?"

Chen Gong stared at Qin Xuehai, stunned for a full three seconds.

The classmates in the room also stared at Chen Gong for three seconds.

After that, Chen Gong earnestly said to Qin Xuehai:

"Just as the correct answers need theoretical knowledge and practical verification, so do the wrong ones."

"Such a theory, supported by scientific experiments and backed by detailed data comparison, as well as rich experience, I'm sorry... I can't find any reason for it to be wrong."

Having said that, Chen Gong got up and left.

Qin Xuehai, watching Chen Gong's retreating figure, clutched his chest with both hands.

Damn... fooled by him again!
