As Zheng Jianguo said, although he is a Republican, he is still in the learning stage, and his label still belongs to the inpatient of Massachusetts General Hospital. The reason why he can have a detached position in the digestive center comes from the recognition of the American Institute of gastroenterology by Massachusetts General Hospital.
Zheng Jianguo was still the title of special director of the American Society of Gastroenterology, and then entered the Massachusetts General Hospital for inpatient training with this title. In this case, it is understandable to attend the meeting on behalf of the hospital.
On the contrary, if Zheng Jianguo attended the meeting as a member of the society of Gastroenterology of the Republic, it would be better to say that his title of special director is a recognized qualification after all.
Considering that Zheng Jianguo is still receiving inpatient training, the recent research on Helicobacter pylori is still done in Massachusetts General Hospital.
Zheng Jianguo's speech at this meeting can only be a retreat. Can't he take the research at Massachusetts General Hospital and communicate with people in the name of the Republic Gastroenterology Society?
Even if Zheng Jianguo is willing, director Amy is afraid to explode in situ——
Besides, there's a valet behind his ass.
When Zheng Jianguo explained with Professor Jin in Mandarin, Esther next to him looked at him with big eyes. Under the black and thin eyebrows were long and black eyelashes. With curiosity blinking and blinking on his small cheeks, he looked at the four people in front like two small brooms, and his eyes fell on the bag and key in Zheng Jianguo's hand, When the eyes were bright, a voice came from the side: "Hello, miss -"
"Hello -"
The delicate cheek showed vigilance. Looking at the man in front of him, Esther saw the strange man smiling and opened his mouth: "I'm Douglas, I'm a famous star detective. I found that you have a rare intellectual beauty in young people. Of course, your appearance is also very outstanding -"
"I'm sorry, Mr. Douglas, I don't want to be an actor or obviously, I'm a senior resident who is undergoing the joint training program of MD and PhD. I don't have to rely on my appearance talent to eat. Thank you for your kindness."
Looking at the business card handed by the other party's fingertips, Esther immediately shook her head and refused with disgust on her face. She managed to survive the four-year medical school life like hell. Now she asked her to give up the upcoming Sunshine Avenue to change her career. How did she think and feel that the other party was not kind: "sorry, you can leave."
"Oh, it's a doctor. Sorry, I won't bother you."
Star scout Douglas looked at Esther's cheek and figure again, and saw hall manager Gibson appear next to him. He waved and turned away, leaving Gibson who watched his back disappear and opened his mouth to Esther: "Miss, did Douglas harass you?"
"No, is he famous?"
Esther recalled that since the other party didn't pester herself, she shook her head and replied. Of course, she knew that this was the manager of the hotel, so she thought the star scout was very famous. Unexpectedly, Gibson looked sideways at Zheng Jianguo, and said to her, "Douglas is a little famous, but he is an adult star Scout -"
“!!!”
When several black lines appeared on Esther's white forehead, Zheng Jianguo had already dealt with Professor Jin. When he heard this, he looked at Gibson and immediately said, "we will pay attention. Thank you, manager Gibson."
"You're welcome ~"
Gibson looked back at Esther, who was still black. Of course, he could see that the relationship between the two people should be close, but the other party was still surprised to hear the hint in his words: "if you need anything, please ask someone to call me directly."
"OK!"
Zheng Jianguo nodded again and watched Gibson leave. The manager's name had brought out the memory of the wife killing case in his mind. Just considering that Esther had been harassed by adult scouts, he said, "Esther, director Amy, what room do they live in?"
"Room 9015, you should also be on the 9th floor?"
In an instant, Esther glanced at the people behind Zheng Jianguo, found that he had no idea of greeting, and then asked, "shall I take you there?"
"9023, the organizer was very generous and booked a single room for everyone who came to the meeting. Although it's not a high-end room, you don't have to live with others after all -"
As Esther spoke, his mood began to improve, and his small but delicate cheeks were filled with a youthful smile. Only when the smile fell into Zheng Jianguo's eyes, he subconsciously looked around and found that no one paid attention to them, so he took Esther to the next elevator and whispered, "your previous state was wrong. You were too close in private, Others will think. "
"Just think about it. I just let others think about it, but you can rest assured that I won't knock on your door in the middle of the night -"
Esther murmured. Seeing that the elevator opened and people came out, he lowered his voice and followed Zheng Jianguo into the elevator. He helped him press the button on the 9th floor, picked up his arms and looked annoyed: "we came a little late."
"A little late?"
Looking at Esther, who was obviously in a good mood, Zheng Jianguo saw her like this for the first time. Esther nodded after his voice fell and said, "I didn't say the meeting. I mean that club 54 was closed. I still want to have a chance to take a chance and see if I can get in."
"Club 54? I seem to have heard of it somewhere? How was it sealed? "
Zheng Jianguo didn't expect Esther to care about the place to play, but when he asked this question with doubt, he saw Esther as surprised and said, "don't you know Club 54? It's -- "
"Oh, I remember. It's the discotheque. It's said that it's a place where celebrities gather. You don't have to go in if you have money or status. The condition for going in is" novelty and fun ". I don't think this word is enough to show what the boss wants. I think you need" fashion ". If you wear" fashion "and dress" fashion ", you're the most beautiful star in the discotheque that day."
Living in the United States, where information spread rapidly, Zheng Jianguo did not read relevant reports. He soon remembered the nightclub called "club 54", and subconsciously expressed his views.
Disco is a dance that will be popular in the north and south of the river in the future. Behind this kind of irregular and deafening rhythm music, it is actually about people's most primitive expression of rhythm, which will eventually evolve into a break dance in the pop world a few years later.
In Zheng Jianguo's opinion, this club called Club 54, which was opened in 1977, is likely to be a trend pioneer in disco dance, disco and nightclub. Just to his surprise, it was sealed up: "did you evade taxes?"
"Well, did you guess?"
It was Esther's turn to be surprised. She blinked and blinked with her big eyes open. Just at this time, the elevator door opened. Then she remembered some rumors about Zheng Jianguo: "I heard you are good at doing business?"
"How else would you do your own research?"
Seeing that there was no one outside, Zheng Jianguo was infected by the charming appearance in front of her. Subconsciously, he said and immediately raised his feet and walked away: "who did you listen to?"
"Jack Addison, our computer administrator, said that your magic cube sold very well. Several people he knew were playing it, and the snake -"
Esther has long been used to keeping silent about Zheng Jianguo. Although she is nearly two years older than Zheng Jianguo, she always unconsciously regards each other as older than herself.
At this time, the two people came to room 9023 one after another. As Zheng Jianguo opened the door of room 9023 with the key, Esther poked out his head and looked around at the corridor after entering the house, hung the do not disturb sign behind the door on the door handle, clicked the door closed and bolted it.
Just more than an hour after the door was closed, the elevator at the end of the corridor opened the door with a jingle. Fiona, with a curious face, looked around at the room number and looked at it slowly. She finally stopped in front of the door of room 9023 and stared at the "don't disturb" apricot eyes on the handle: "can I make up for sleep in this time?"
"Click?"
A thought flashed through her mind. Fiona heard the sound of opening the latch inside. After looking around and finding no one in the corridor, she immediately flashed into the half open door. She didn't want to stare at her apricot eyes at the next moment: "you --"
"You --"
Esther's ruddy complexion turned white in an instant. She didn't know the relationship with Zheng Jianguo in front of her. She was guilty and thought that her relationship with Zheng Jianguo had been broken by someone, so that Rao had a very high psychological quality and her open mouth stumbling: "you, you, who are you?"
"I also want to ask you yes - you don't seem to be Serena?"
Looking at the pink cheeks on each other's face, Fiona immediately recognized that this was not Yang Na, and immediately understood that she was afraid that she was playing a friendly match with Zheng Jianguo. Suddenly, she looked at Zheng Jianguo who appeared in the bathroom. When she looked at his naked body, she didn't expect to hear him say, "Esther, close the door."
"Oh -"
She looked at Fiona in front of her quickly. Of course, Esther knew that Serena in her mouth was Yang Na who had been in the emergency room of Massachusetts General Hospital. She subconsciously closed the door and realized that she had something to do with Zheng Jianguo. Otherwise, she would not have flashed in like before and said, "who are you?"
"I'm Fiona, Zheng's friend. I wanted to scare him. I didn't expect you to scare me."
Fiona looked at Esther up and down. Her eyes tilted when she looked at the strawberries on her neck. Just when she was facing Esther with a sense of superiority, Zheng Jianguo's voice in the bathroom came: "Fiona, what are you looking for me?"
"Of course I have something to do with you."
Fiona, who was full of a sense of superiority, was stunned. Then in the face of Esther, whose face had completely changed, she said, and saw Zheng Jianguo appear next to her with a bath towel wrapped around her waist. When she wiped her wet hair with a towel in one hand, she said, "don't do this in the future, you go."
"Why? Just because I had a boyfriend? "
Fiona looked stunned, then looked at Zheng Jianguo and asked, then remembered something and continued to say, "you didn't say I couldn't find a boyfriend? Didn't you find her, too? Esther? "
"Oh, you broke up with Jefferson?"
Seeing Fiona's expression change with his voice, Zheng Jianguo frowned and said, "you both say it's impossible --"
"Jianguo, I'll go first. You talk slowly."
Suddenly, Esther spoke to them. Just when her hand touched the door handle, she thought of something and looked back: "don't forget the virus."
"The virus?"
As Fiona's attention shifted, Esther had quickly opened the door and flashed out. Just when she looked at several Chinese coming in, she didn't forget to bring the door to the explorer's hand. She didn't want to shake off the "don't disturb" sign because of her big action, so she bent over to pick up the sign, hung it back on the door handle, and turned to do it.
"9023, this seems to be Jianguo's room -"
Seeing Esther Shi Ran's back disappear, Tao Ye looked back. Ye minde said that just when the old man hesitated with several people looking at the 9023 group of figures, the originally closed door opened again, and a girl in school uniform was shouting at Zheng Jianguo, who was wrapped in a bath towel in the room: "Zheng, It's shameless of you to go to bed with you and check whether there is a virus?! "
"Cough -"
After silently looking at the situation in the room, ye minde took a long breath and turned to walk with his back. Tao Ye, Yi Jinzhi and Wei Yongqiang turned their heads as if they had returned to their senses. After scanning the situation in the room, they chased Ye minde's back.
Fiona looked suspiciously at the backs of several people, and then listened to Zheng Jianguo in the room and said, "Fiona, my focus is not on the virus, but that you already have a boyfriend and have a boyfriend. As your father said, I'm more traditional. Let's be friends in the future."
The door slammed shut. Fiona shook her head, turned to Zheng Jianguo, and said coldly, "Zheng Jianguo, you also have a girlfriend. I broke up with Jefferson now. Did you break up with Serena? Aren't you afraid I'll tell her about you and this woman? "
"What do you want to do?"
Zheng Jianguo's face was stunned. He could hear what Fiona meant. Maybe after breaking up with Jefferson, without the shackles of her boyfriend, he wanted to have a friendly game when he met him.
After all, when they met in the hall, they both made an appointment to go out in the evening, but obviously they didn't expect him to have a bottom line.
If Fiona has a boyfriend, Zheng Jianguo will never have any contact with her again, let alone a friendly match after meeting. Although this friendly match has the temptation to show her "charm" and "break through Taboos", it is more in line with the cognition and understanding of "love" by unmarried men and women in America.
However, in the cultural edification Zheng Jianguo received in his last life and this life, the end of * * * women touched the bottom line of the most basic morality as human beings.
Of course, Zheng Jianguo has been in the United States for the past two years and has made some changes imperceptibly. For example, in the face of Fiona who came to the door at the last meeting, Esther, who obtained communication and recognition by means of transaction before the meeting, is the embodiment of his unconscious changes.
But Fiona didn't want to. Fiona was going to revive her old love with him. She blinked and said, "in terms of Serena's IQ, if you tell her, she would be very happy to think I had played a friendly game with you.
Because you are all Xueba, you received MD and PhD training at Mayo Clinic, and Esther received joint MD and PhD training at Massachusetts General Hospital.
But I finally chose her, just as the more girlfriends a boy changes in college, the more attractive he is, and most male students will like cheerleaders.
This is in line with most people's cognition and understanding of unmarried male female relations in the United States. In addition to winning the sympathy of their families, unpopular people will only be laughed at by others, not to mention that you should know that someone will nominate me for the "Lasker Award" this year.
And a quarter of the winners of this award will win the Nobel prize next year, or the next year. I said Fiona, don't you think of this now? "
"Yes, if I say, I think of that now, do you believe it?"
Fiona said after biting her lips tightly. Then she went to him and felt her hand before she wanted to smoke Zheng Jianguo. Unexpectedly, Zheng Jianguo directly felt her hand and grabbed her raised wrist. She saw Fiona staring into his eyes and said, "if I knew you were so smart, I wouldn't let you be responsible -"
"You know I wanted to be responsible for you then? But now what do you want to do? "
Zheng Jianguo frowned instantly, but Fiona put her hand on him after hearing his words, quickly pulled off his bath towel, and then said with a gentle smile: "I'm thinking now, will Serena forgive you when she knows that you maintain this relationship with me and Esther at the same time?"
"You --"
Zheng Jianguo, who was forced to calm down, was finally a little flustered. The reason why he calmly described Yang Na as an extremely rational woman was that he was afraid of Fiona's Entanglement: "she will --"
"Shh ~ so we won't let her know."
Her right hand didn't stop. Fiona quickly poked out her left index finger and made a silent gesture. Then she looked at Zheng Jianguo's expression on her charming face and whispered, "do you know why I broke up with him?"
When the ambiguous atmosphere in room 9023 diffused, Augustus was drilling out of the low-key Toyota car in front of the private waiting apron of Kennedy airport more than ten kilometers away. He looked at the middle-aged man standing next to him and said, "is Andre here?"
"Yes, but his wine doesn't seem to wake up, boss. This trip is a little -"
The middle-aged man turned and looked at the cabin door. When the mistress with a bad face said, Augustus had waved his hand and stepped on the boarding Lane: "you'll know then. Let the captain inform the tower. Let's go quickly. I want to come back early."
"OK -"
The middle-aged man followed Augustus on the plane, looked at his nose and heart, and went straight to the cockpit. He threw Augustus in front of Andre. He was surprised to see the boss pull up his son's short sleeved shirt as if looking for something. He didn't want drunk Andre to push his hand and slap Augustus in the face, Immediately, he hurried to the airport, closed the door behind him and said, "inform the tower that we are leaving and let them go as soon as possible. The boss looks very anxious -"
"OK -"
The captain glanced at the middle-aged man and quickly reported the take-off notice in the walkie talkie. After hearing the news that he could take off, the middle-aged man returned to the cabin. He saw Augustus sitting on the wide leather sofa, feeling a cigar and smelling it at the tip of his nose, so he whispered, "boss?"
"When the inspection results come out, I'll tell you, oh, you can do one by the way."
Augustus shook his cigar and said it. Then he looked at it like he remembered something. The middle-aged man said something. The latter pressed down his doubts. He knew that if the boss didn't want to say, he would never ask.
Fortunately, the middle-aged man knew that the plane was going to Boston, and since he talked about the examination to be done, he must have gone to the hospital or laboratory for examination. With reference, he just received Zheng Jianguo to the club, and vaguely felt that it should have something to do with Zheng Jianguo.
Sure enough, forty minutes later, the plane landed at Boston's Logan Airport. A group of hurried people got into the three cars that had been waiting for long. He confirmed his idea from Augustus's order: "go to the digestive center of Massachusetts General Hospital --"
"Digestion center, Zheng Jianguo's laboratory is there."
Just as his thoughts were confirmed, the middle-aged man didn't have any happy thoughts. To be exact, he was more worried at the moment: "is there any virus spreading?"
Of course, the middle-aged man didn't know. When he confirmed the answer, he had been sitting in the laboratory without a name for three hours. Andre woke up and said, "is there any result?"
"The result is --"
Katherine looked at Andre with doubt, handed the test report in her hand to Augustus and said, "among the six of you, only the test result of No. 3 blood is positive, that is, it is confirmed that she has been infected with this virus, but according to the boss, the infection window period of this virus is unknown, so if other people are infected, Then the result may be misjudged -- "
"Blood 3?"
Augustus changed his complexion, took over the six test reports, his eyes flickered, forced to press the fear in his heart and said, "what are the symptoms of this virus infection? Is it just purple spots on your body? "
"Well, there are only 3 cases up to now because there are too few cases found at present. At present, there are purple scars after infection, or other dark scars -"
Catherine certainly didn't know where Augustus was sacred, but she could tell from the conversation that she came from New York and accepted Zheng Jianguo's suggestion.
So she found that the faces of several people were so heavy that they looked like a great disaster. Catherine couldn't help smiling and said, "fortunately, at present, the longest one has been infected for more than three years and hasn't been sick, so there's no need to worry for a while."
"What is the route of transmission of this virus?"
Seeing that Catherine didn't ask about the point, Augustus saw that Catherine still nodded with a smile and said, "at present, conventional infection methods, such as air, water, food and normal contact, have been ruled out, but the research on blood infection is still in progress, and kissing and X contact have not been ruled out -"
"Dad, can't we go to the big hospital to see this disease?"
Andre took back his eyes from Catherine's face with curiosity. Augustus shook his head and said, "I've been asked. At present, no one has found this unknown virus in the blood -"
"Have you been asked? Did you consult other virus experts? What did you ask? Did you tell the boss? "
Catherine's cold cheeks were cold for a moment. Augustus glanced at her and said, "well, I didn't tell Zheng --"
"Then you exposed our research -"
Catherine subconsciously said that Augustus had frowned and looked at the middle-aged man. The middle-aged man raised his chin: "we will talk to Dr. Zheng. Of course, if you can contact him, it's not too late to talk to him now."
"Good!"
After looking at several people again, Catherine turned around and took small steps to run away. Augustus left sighed and said, "Andre, did you hear the doctor clearly?"
"Listen clearly, father, what are you asking?"
Andre, with a worried face, asked vaguely. Augustus had looked at the middle-aged man, his wife and two daughters next to him. He said with a cigar in a dissatisfied tone: "this virus eliminates the conventional route of infection, that is, kissing, X-contact and blood contact infection. What did you do during that time three months ago?"
"Three months ago -"
As if recalling the situation at that time, Andre's white cheek twitched twice, then subconsciously looked at the woman next to him, and heard Augustus say again: "liana, take Annie and them out to eat -"
"OK -"
Liana looked at Andre and left with her two daughters. Augustus then looked at the middle-aged man: "go and arrange to get off the plane. When liana and they finished eating, we'll go back to New York --"
"OK."
The middle-aged man turned around and left solemnly. Augustus looked at himself and Andre left in the office, so he took a cigar and said to him, "now list the people you mess with outside, and the people who have injected you with messy things -"
"Dad, maybe it's okay -"
Andre frowned and looked unhappy. Augustus didn't open his mouth, so he stared at him. Soon Andre honestly opened his mouth and reported his name outside. Augustus let him go. He took a book out of his pocket and wrote down his name one by one.
Just as one familiar or unfamiliar name after another was written down, Augustus found that Andre was full of words and could not help but frown and said, "Andre, if you lied to me this time, don't blame me for sending you back to your hometown to study in men's school -"
"Dad, I didn't lie to you."
Andre looked stunned and spoke quickly. Augustus nodded, put away his notebook, stood up and took Andre to the fast-food restaurant below to find the three Linas and their daughters who were eating, so he asked the middle-aged man who came after the arrangement to pack up and get on the plane. As he simply ate fast food on the plane, I don't know whether it was dinner or midnight snack, The plane has landed at New York airport.
"You go home first. I'll see Zheng."
Augustus watched Andre and his wife and daughter get into the car and drive away. He also took the middle-aged man to the car and sat in the back seat. Until then, the middle-aged man had a chance to say, "boss, Andre -"
"I have a list. Go and confirm it tomorrow."
As if he remembered something, Augustus took out a small notebook from his pocket, tore down the list recorded in it, handed it to the middle-aged man, and listened to him say, "boss, this time --"
"Today, when I took Zheng to see Anthony, he found a purple scar on Anthony's girlfriend Delia's neck. You didn't see his look when he talked about this purple scar with me after Anthony left. It was a mixture of shock and pity - pity! He didn't show this look when he talked about Helicobacter pylori induced cancer before. "
Augustus frowned and said about Zheng Jianguo's reaction he saw today. But at this moment, he still didn't expect that when Zheng Jianguo heard the positive news, an incredible shock appeared on his originally reddish cheek: "is it really diagnosed?"
"If the result is positive, it should be the diagnosis?"
Augustus's eyebrows twisted into a pimple. He felt pity again from Zheng Jianguo's eyes and immediately said, "is this disease, virus, terrible?"
"Well, let's go up and talk. Go to my room."
He motioned to Fiona and Esther nearby. Zheng Jianguo took two women, Augustus and a middle-aged man into the elevator. He didn't want to hear Fiona say, "Jianguo, what's the virus you're talking about?"
"Aside from our relationship, it's confidential for people outside Massachusetts General Hospital, so I can't tell you ~"
Although he didn't find Augustus's face pulled down, Zheng Jianguo warned Fiona half true and half false. Fortunately, the relationship between him and Fiona and Esther seemed to have changed in a small half day, and Fiona's attitude towards him at this time was quite different: "if you don't say it, don't say it --"
Separated from the two women at the door of room 9023, Zheng Jianguo took Augustus and the middle-aged man into his room. Without pouring water for them, he opened his mouth after closing the door: "first of all, I want to talk about the virus transmission side of this. Considering that only blood transmission has not been ruled out, and at present, except medical blood transfusion, That is, with the help of a unique injection that shares a needle.
I think if it really depends on blood transmission, then in addition, there are mucosal rupture caused by X contact between people, between men and women, between men and men, between women and women - sorry, women and women should not infect each other. "
