When Qin Jiang took out the urinary catheter, everyone finally realized he was serious.
Qin Jiang first pulled the bed curtain halfway, then asked the nurse to help with the catheterization while he stood in front of Tian Wang, observing him carefully.
“Dr. Qin, we’ll begin the procedure now.”
“Alright.”
With Qin Jiang’s acknowledgment, the nurses began inserting the catheter.
The cameraman also gave Tian Wang a close-up shot of his face.
Seeing this, netizens immediately flooded the screen with comments.
“Did I just see that guy twitch? Was it my imagination?”
“It’s not your imagination. Look, he’s starting to sweat on his forehead.”
“Dr. Qin is ruthless. Going straight for the catheter—who could handle that?”
“To be fair, this guy is pretty tough. He hasn’t made a single sound yet. What a man!”
The netizens noticed Tian Wang’s unusual reactions, and Qin Jiang naturally did too.
By now, Qin Jiang was sure: Tian Wang was faking unconsciousness. However, his self-hypnosis ability was strong, allowing him to greatly reduce his perception of pain on a subjective level.
Qin Jiang asked, “Officer, what did he do?”
Chang Shoushan replied, “Nothing too major. Fraud, scamming money from elderly people.”
“We’ve been watching him for days. Just as we closed in today, he collapsed and pretended to faint right in front of us.”
“Dr. Qin, what exactly is wrong with him? Can it be treated?”
Qin Jiang calmly gestured.
“Nothing’s wrong. He’s just faking it. But his self-hypnosis is quite powerful, so ordinary methods won’t wake him up.”
Chang Shoushan furrowed his brow.
“What do we do then? We can’t detain him if he doesn’t wake up.”
“Don’t worry. If I handle it, he’ll definitely wake up.”
“Pay first. Scan the code on the table—200 yuan.”
Chang Shoushan acknowledged and took out his phone to scan. After all, such expenses could be reimbursed by the department.
Ding.
[System detected host directly addressed patient’s hidden ailment, greatly assisting patient. Task completed.]
[Congratulations to host for reward: Huoxue Shengmai Yin.]
It was actually Shengmai Yin!
Qin Jiang was thrilled.
Shengmai Yin is a traditional Chinese medicinal formula that boosts qi and nourishes yin. It’s primarily used for symptoms like dual deficiency of qi and yin, palpitations, shortness of breath, and spontaneous sweating.
These symptoms are very common among young people nowadays.
So, taking a dose of Shengmai Yin from time to time can significantly improve and support one’s health.
The most notable improvement is for young people who often feel heart fatigue and extreme tiredness.
This is actually a manifestation of dual deficiency of qi and blood.
A dose of Shengmai Yin can provide immediate relief.
Of course, the best remedy is to get some sleep when feeling heart fatigue.
Even a short nap can greatly alleviate pressure on the heart.
“Dr. Qin, we’ve drained the urine from his body. What should we do now?”
“First, hold down his hands and feet. I’m going to the pharmacy.”
Qin Jiang turned and walked into the pharmacy. When he returned, he was holding two items.
A piece of Qingkou Huanglian (Coptis Chinensis tablet) and a roll of adhesive tape.
“Make sure you hold him down. He might have a strong reaction later. Don’t let him break free.”
Seeing Qin Jiang’s serious expression, the police officers nearby quickly came over to help, pressing down Tian Wang’s limbs.
Once everyone was ready, Qin Jiang swiftly placed the Huanglian tablet into Tian Wang’s mouth and sealed it with the adhesive tape.
At first, Tian Wang tried to endure it.
But as saliva moistened the Huanglian tablet, the man who had been faking unconsciousness suddenly opened his eyes wide, struggling desperately to get up.
“Quick! Hold him down! Don’t let him get up!”
All the police officers and nurses followed Qin Jiang’s instructions, pressing Tian Wang down firmly and refusing to let him move.
Tian Wang was in agony!
So bitter that his eyes turned red!
He moaned and groaned through the tape, even trying several times to push it off with his tongue, but to no avail.
Even Chang Shoushan was startled by Tian Wang’s reaction.
Even when dealing with addicts going through withdrawal, it was never this dramatic!
“Dr. Qin, what exactly did you give him? Is it safe?”
Knowing what Chang Shoushan was worried about, Qin Jiang replied calmly, “Don’t worry. It’s just an ordinary Huanglian tablet. It clears heat.”
“Then why did you insist we hold him down?”
“Oh, it’s nothing. It’s just that these Huanglian tablets are quite expensive—dozens of yuan per piece. I was afraid he’d spit it out, and that would be a waste.”
“Wait a little longer. Once the tablet dissolves completely in his mouth, we can let him go.”
Qin Jiang’s explanation led to a wave of comments from netizens.
“Dr. Qin is practically the King of Hell incarnate. Forcing someone to eat Huanglian is one thing, but sealing their mouth shut too?”
“Dr. Qin said he was afraid the guy would spit it out and waste it. There are still so many good doctors in this world.”
“So this is the modern version of ‘the mute tasting bitterness’? Impressive. I’ve learned something new today!”
“This guy is really unlucky. Faking unconsciousness and ending up in Qin Jiang’s hands. Even if you were really in a coma, I feel like Dr. Qin would have a way to wake you up.”
Once Qin Jiang felt the Huanglian tablet had mostly dissolved, he removed the tape, had the catheter taken out, and let Tian Wang go.
Tian Wang jumped off the bed and rushed straight to the sink.
He rinsed his mouth and dry-heaved repeatedly.
His expression was so pitiful that even onlookers felt sorry for him, unable to imagine just how bitter the Huanglian must have been.
Tian Wang spent a full ten minutes rinsing his mouth, almost scrubbing his lips raw, before he finally recovered. He slumped to the floor, looking utterly defeated.
Seeing how effective Qin Jiang’s remedy was, Chang Shoushan quickly walked over.
“Dr. Qin, thank you so much for your help. Without you, we really wouldn’t have known what to do.”
Qin Jiang took out three more Huanglian tablets, wrapped them in a small paper packet, and handed them to Chang Shoushan. “I’ve prepared three extra Huanglian tablets for you. If he fakes unconsciousness again, you can put another one in his mouth and make him eat it.”
“These Huanglian tablets have no side effects. You can use them without worry.”
Seeing Chang Shoushan take the Huanglian tablets from Qin Jiang, Tian Wang fell to his knees with a thud.
“I confess! I’ll confess everything!”
“Ask me anything! I won’t hide a thing, just please don’t make me eat that awful stuff again!”
Chang Shoushan hadn’t expected the Huanglian tablets to be so intimidating.
He’d thought the interrogation would be a struggle, but it seemed he’d worried for nothing.
Chang Shoushan handcuffed Tian Wang, and the group soon left the clinic.
In the live stream, many official accounts were begging for links.
Qin Jiang took a closer look and couldn’t help but laugh and cry at the same time.
These official accounts all belonged to various local police station social media pages.
