Of course, as for curing illnesses and driving away evil spirits for others, bothering with things like acupuncture and pharmacology is too troubleso. It’s more effective to just punch the illness out directly.
As they spoke, the old lady was already briskly walking back into the room, carrying a basin of steaming water and a towel.
She wrung out the hot towel and carefully wiped the black gri off her daughter’s face.
On the bed, Li Jiajia kept her eyes tightly closed, her eyelashes trembled slightly, and her brows were furrowed together, as if she were trapped in so deep nightmare.
The old lady was pained to see her daughter so frail, and tears stread down her face.
But this ti, all her tears were of joy.
Seeing the old lady undoing buttons to wipe her daughter’s body, Fang Cheng turned his head away out of courtesy and looked at Ning Yue:
"Let’s talk outside."
"Alright."
Understanding his intention, Ning Yue followed Fang Cheng out of the bedroom, gently closing the door behind them.
The two of them went into the living room.
Ning Yue stood in front of the sofa, noticed it was dusty, and quickly rubbed it twice with her sleeve.
Then she turned around, looking embarrassed as she explained:
"With such a big incident happening at ho these days, I really haven’t had the ti to clean up. It’s such a ss, please excuse us."
"You sit down and rest for a bit. Let get you sothing to drink. Do you prefer tea or coffee? There is also cola and orange juice in the fridge."
As she said this, she imdiately turned and walked briskly toward the kitchen.
"No need to trouble yourself."
Fang Cheng raised his hand to stop her, his expression serious: "I have things to do later, so I’ll just talk for a bit and then leave."
Ning Yue stopped in her tracks.
She tucked a stray lock of hair behind her ear and t Fang Cheng’s gaze.
As a seasoned car salesperson, she’s best at reading people.
Seeing Fang Cheng’s solemn deanor, she quickly deduced his intention:
"You... have sothing you want to ask , right?"
Fang Cheng nodded and didn’t beat around the bush, directly asking;
"As a doctor, I need to understand the root cause of her illness in order to prevent the possibility of future relapses."
"Do you rember when exactly Jiajia’s symptoms began to show abnormal signs?"
Ning Yue slightly furrowed her brows, carefully sorting through her mories.
"It was probably... last December."
She raised her head, a hint of fear in her tone:
"That weekend, she went on a picnic with friends near West Mountain, and on the way, they got caught in a rainstorm, getting soaked to the bone."
"That very night, she ca down with a high fever. It was very severe, and she was rushed to the ergency room and hospitalized for a whole week."
Ning Yue swallowed, continuing to recount the details:
"After being discharged, we felt her temperant beco increasingly strange. At first, she beca very neurotic, often hiding alone in the dark, lost in thought. We just thought she was in a bad mood after breaking up with her boyfriend."
"But later, it beca completely abnormal. One night I got up to drink water and saw her squatting in front of the fridge, gnawing on a piece of raw pork, her mouth full of blood."
"When I brought it up with her later, she seed to have amnesia, unable to rember anything."
"If it were just amnesia, that wouldn’t be too bad. The critical issue is that as ti progressed, her condition grew progressively worse; losing her sanity, sleepwalking, going berserk and attacking others, even failing to recognize her own family."
"Once, she almost strangled in a fit. Luckily, my in-laws discovered it and stopped her in ti..."
Recalling that scene, Ning Yue shivered uncontrollably, still appearing shaken.
She spoke in extre detail, fearing to miss any clue that could lead to her sister-in-law’s relapse.
Fang Cheng stood to the side, quietly listening, nodding slightly.
"Last December..."
He recited this point in ti in his mind.
That was precisely after the special explosion event that occurred near West Mountain.
He distinctly rembered that during those days, the local TV news continuously aired rolling broadcasts, emphasizing that peculiar black rain that fell after the explosion.
At the ti, the TV station even invited experts to debunk rumors, using a slew of professional terminology for explanations.
They said it was pollution leakage from a chemical plant or ashes from a forest fire mixed with the rain, a natural phenonon.
Now connecting all the clues, those so-called scientific explanations are complete nonsense, deliberately concealing the truth.
Li Jiajia didn’t go mad because she was ill, but because she was possessed by the shadow they encountered earlier.
This type of creature capable of parasitizing a human body most likely descended upon this world along with that black rain.
Just like back in the Otherworld, where he once traversed and inhabited, there was also bizarre black rain and identical parasitic creatures.
The sa incidents occurring on both sides are definitely not re coincidences.
"Fang Cheng."
Ning Yue’s sowhat uneasy voice interrupted his thoughts:
"Jiajia’s illness... It won’t relapse in the future, right?"
"Don’t worry."
Fang Cheng collected his thoughts and replied calmly:
"The root cause of the illness has been completely eradicated. As long as she’s nurtured well according to my instructions, she’ll soon return to normal life."
"Thank you so much, truly."
Upon hearing this, Ning Yue breathed a long sigh of relief, eyes filled with genuine gratitude:
"I don’t know how to thank you properly. Oh, weren’t you saying you wanted to buy a car? I’ll contact the dealership right away..."
Fang Cheng interrupted her with a smile:
"We’re old classmates, just lending a helping hand; it’s no big deal. I have sothing to do today, but next ti I’m free, I’ll visit the shop and have a more detailed chat."
Hearing this, Ning Yue stopped being overly polite and earnestly nodded:
"Alright then, I’ll keep an eye on a few in-stock models for you and pick the best value for you when the ti cos."
