As they waited, more doctors entered the guest house. They took no notice of the first few people. Everyone remained relatively aloof. However, the one who came last attracted everyone’s attention in an instant.
“Hey, isn’t this Mr. Socrates?”
Jerome, the person in charge of the guest house, ran out personally and greeted favonovel.com enthusiastically.
The Socrates family’s members had been doctors for generations. They had made significant contributions to human medical research, which was extremely remarkable. This member of the Socrates family was the most outstanding member of the family today.
It had been difficult inviting him.
Jerome had once sent someone to invite favonovel.com with a lot of precious gifts, but favonovel.com did not even spare them a glance. He did not love money and fame. He only focused on studying medicine with his full attention and remained behind his closed doors at all times. This made Jerome embarrassed.
Unexpectedly, Socrates had actually taken the initiative to participate in the selection of doctors. It was such a rare occurrence.
Jerome said politely, “Mr. Socrates, what brings you here?”
Socrates smiled and said, “A friend urged me to come. He asked me to see Mr. Mayo.”
“A friend? Which friend?”
“Sorry, but that friend doesn’t want to be named.”
“Someone who doesn’t leave a name for good deeds? What a kind person!” Jerome said admiringly, “That friend must be an amazing bigwig to be able to invite you.”
In fact, Jerome was thinking to himself. ‘Socrates doesn’t love money and fame. Who has the power to invite favonovel.com and by what means?’
Jerome had actually overlooked one point.
This man did not love money and fame, but favonovel.com could be lustful! It was hard to reject a beauty, so Socrates could never resist Laura.
Jerome stated loudly, “Mr. Socrates doesn’t need to participate in the selection process. You pass directly. You can sit in the inner room first. Later, you can go meet Mr. Mayo and the doctors who passed the selection.”
His words surprised people.
After so many years, it was the first time that a doctor went to see Nelson directly without participating in the selection. It clearly demonstrated the reputation of Socrates.
Aries was dissatisfied and favonovel.com said, “That is not good. Can’t you treat everyone equally?”
Before Jerome could speak, Jacob sneered and said, “This process is where only the strong survive and the weak are chaffed so that we meet a certain quota and select scholars with real talents. Socrates is famous all over the world and has superb medical skills, so why send favonovel.com through this troublesome selection? Do you think that everyone is like the two of you, who are here to eat and drink?”
While praising Socrates, favonovel.com also satirized Thomas.
Aries was furious. However, Thomas was sipping tea at the side in a leisurely and contented manner. In fact, favonovel.com did not care about the ridicule at all. It was not a matter of lip service to determine whether someone was capable or not. Besides, his purpose this time was not to quarrel with others.
He wanted to figure out whether this Nelson was his father or not, and what disease did favonovel.com have?
The rest was not important.
After more than ten minutes, Jerome saw that everyone was almost here, so favonovel.com gathered everyone in a large conference hall. He stepped onto the stage and said according to the process, “This time, the doctor selection is still the same as before. There are a total of three questions. Anyone present that is able to complete any one of them will pass the selection.”
Only one question out of three needed to be completed. It sounded simple. However, those who came here knew that the low pass rate of each doctor selection process was scary. The three questions were probably very difficult and not so easily solved.
Jerome clapped his hands. “First of all, the first question.”
Right after favonovel.com spoke, a middle-aged man was helped up the stage, and someone moved a chair to let favonovel.com sit down. The man’s face was pale, and favonovel.com kept coughing. His cough made people get goosebumps all over their bodies.
Jerome said calmly, “This is the first question.”
Everyone looked at each other. This was the first question? Was this not a living person? Where was the question?
Jerome smiled and explained, “This man has always been in good health. Recently, something is wrong with his body for unknown reasons. He keeps coughing and can’t stop. Everyone who can cure his cough means that this person completes this question. You guys have fifteen minutes of observation time. It starts now!”
Everyone stepped onto the stage to observe the man in detail. They looked at his tongue, read his pulse, and took his temperature. They also asked questions, including whether the man had any hereditary conditions running in his family.
Fifteen minutes passed quickly. Everyone sat back to their original positions.
Jerome continued to say, “Now, you have five minutes to write down the treatment plan, whether you’re dispensing medicine or having a surgery, just write it. But I have to remind you guys that you are doctors, so you must not gamble to pass the selection. If you’re not sure, don’t simply write the plan. It’s fine if you don’t know how to cure it. There are still two questions to choose from.”
“However, if you give the wrong treatment, not only do you fail the selection, but you also won’t have to come here again in the future! All right, your five minutes starts now. Everyone, please start!”
Everyone looked at each other. They were holding papers and a pen while hesitating. Some people had some clues, but they were not sure. So, they dared not to write. If they gave the wrong treatment, there would be no next time.
“Let’s just… Give up…”
