Chapter 54: Multiple Organ Failure (Part 1)

August 21, 2023Ai Hrist

During the intermission of the contestants, many viewers turned from the live broadcast room to Big Eye Boy and Chaohua, and the room suddenly became deserted.

After sealing Taotao’s supernatural physique, Gu Zhisang returned to the lounge.

She took out a translucent jade-colored vial from her pocket and looked at it. The body of the bottle was about the size of a thumb. Inside was the soul fragment of ‘Kuman Thong’ that she took out from Taotao’s body.

Its body was burned by Mother Xu, and such violent means also greatly damaged the soul attached to the clay doll.

Therefore, there must be an evil force between it and Mother Xu.

Mother Xu was expected to be in bad luck for some time.

Fu Lanyue, who failed to send it away properly, would also be affected by backlash.

As soon as this episode of “Spiritual Affairs” was broadcast, she became a little famous.

The ladies who go to her shop for beauty treatment must also have seen it. Many customers who were taboo and afraid of these things will leave.

At that time, relying on the source of customers and wealth attracted by “Kuman Thong”, she will collapse like a building without a foundation.

Not only that, her future health, longevity, and fortune will be affected to a certain extent.

After examining it carefully, Gu Zhisang didn’t find anything special, so she put the vial back into her pocket.

Right now, she was only curious about whether the underworld can take care of this kind of illegal smuggling from abroad and the evil spirits that come across the border.

Forty minutes passed quickly.

The so-called rest time for players was actually to drive them to the next event location.

Gu Zhisang just got off the car at the place, and the program crew over there was ready to start filming.

Fortunately, she was the last to appear, so she can rest for a while.

In front of the camera, the staff who pinched the clock turned on the camera on time, and the moment the live broadcast screen lit up, the number of people in the room began to increase again.

It was four o’clock in the afternoon, and it stands to reason that it has not yet reached the time of the day when the traffic was the largest;

However, due to the ferment of hot searches all day today, as soon as the second half of the group competition started, the number of people in the room surged to tens of millions, almost causing the webpage to get stuck again.

[This program is really promising, and now the popularity of the live broadcast is going to tens of millions.]

[Oh my god, the barrage is dense. I can’t even see the host’s face clearly when I open the full screen, so I can only fold the comment area.]

[That’s right, this show is really popular. My parents never watch the live broadcast and don’t even know about variety shows, but now, they asked me to tune them out to watch in the afternoon.]

Holding a teleprompter and a microphone, Host Liu looked at the camera and said with a smile:

“Viewers and friends, welcome back to the shooting scene of the third season of “Spiritual Affair”. We are about to start the second group of help-seekers.”

“Due to the special situation of the help-seekers in this field, before we start, we have prepared a pilot video for everyone to understand the situation of the help-seekers in this field.”

As he spoke, the backstage program team switched cameras and inserted the video prepared in advance into the live broadcast room.

The help-seeking in the second scene was also related to a child.

At the beginning of the video, it was a family photo. In the photo, a smiling middle-aged couple was holding the hand of a little girl, and then the scene was frozen in front of the camera.

The background sound explained:

“Ms. Liu and Mr. He met by chance and formed a happy little family. They have been married for 12 years and have a 9-year-old daughter, Niuniu.

Niuniu has been lively and cute since she was a child, sensible and well-behaved, and she is the apple of the eye of the family. When their daughter was 5 years old, Ms. Liu enrolled her in a school to learn taekwondo and swimming. Her body has always been in good health. “

At this time, the video released the various Taekwondo Junior Team trophies Niuniu won, as well as photos and videos of her practicing and swimming.

The little girl in the picture was wearing taekwondo attire, and she kicked two wooden boards while smiling at the camera, which made many viewers smile unknowingly.

As soon as the screen changed, the warm scene on the screen turned into a hospital and hospital beds.

Everyone saw the little girl who was practicing taekwondo like a little sun a moment ago, now her eyes were closed and her face was very pale while lying on the hospital bed.

Her face was covered with a medical mask for oxygen supply, and beside the bed were drips and various heart rate measuring instruments.

She looked like she was seriously ill in bed.

The background sound continued:

“Half a year ago, Niuniu always had dizziness, fatigue, and other symptoms, accompanied by poor appetite and poor excretion, so Ms. Liu took the child to the hospital for examination, and found that her kidney function was failing at a young age, which lead to the above series of complications.

After being treated in the hospital for some time, Niuniu’s condition did not improve and even became more serious, which affected her normal life. During an examination, the doctor told Ms. Liu and Mr. He that the child’s other organs also showed signs of failure! Not long after, Niuniu has been diagnosed with four organ failure. She has to stay in the intensive care unit of the hospital to maintain her life.

Ms. Liu and Mr. He loved their daughter dearly, so they took their daughter to two or three cities with major hospitals, but they couldn’t find out the cause of Niuniu’s illness. Now Niuniu has difficulty in breathing, eating, and excreting. Her body is often swelling, which threatens her life.”

“In desperation, Ms. Liu and Mr. He sent letters to the program team, hoping to get help from the contestants.”

The picture freezes on the photo of Niuniu lying on the hospital bed.

[My God…why is this happening? This little sister is only 9 years old, how could she have this disease!]

[I am a medical student. According to what the VCR said, this girl must have had problems with her kidneys, and cardiopulmonary function, which caused damage to her digestive system and respiratory system. In medicine, it is called ‘multiple organ failure’.

But this is impossible. Generally, multiple organ failures and damages are either due to natural aging due to old age or due to severe trauma or infection. I do know that some young people who stay up late without restraint have this symptom, but they are about 20 years old. I have never heard of such a young child with organ failure for no reason. It must be an infection or something because she ate something.]

[I have a relative with the same disease. My Uncle was infected because of burns. The cost of a day in the intensive care unit is more than 10,000 yuan! They said he was in extreme pain and had difficulty eating, drinking, and sleeping.]

[This kind of thing still has to leave in the field of science. You have to see a doctor. It’s not a supernatural event. The contestants on the “Spiritual Affair” show can’t help you.]

[Upstairs, they came here because the doctors couldn’t tell the cause. For no reason, the child’s organs failed, which is mysterious.]

Amidst the quarrel in the comment area, the program team invited Ms. Liu and Mr. He as husband and wife.

Their shooting location at this time was a residential building opposite the hospital in City X.

After Niuniu fell ill, Ms. Liu and her husband rented a house for the convenience of taking care of their children. It was a building across the road from the hospital where their daughter was treated. Most of the people living here were family members of the patients.

Seeing the host and the staff of the program team carrying the camera to follow the filming went upstairs, many residents in the residential building cast a scrutinizing look.

When they arrived in front of a residence on the third floor, Host Liu said: “We’re here. This is the residence where Ms. Liu and her husband live.”

The reason why the program team decided to shoot the fifth episode in City X was because Niuniu had to be hospitalized. Due to her special body condition, she could not move.

After knocking on the door, a woman with a tired expression and slightly messy hair opened the door.

Seeing the host and the staff behind him, Ms. Liu subconsciously tidied up her clothes and hair, forced a smile, and said:

“You’re here. Please come in quickly! I’m sorry, something happened to the child just now, I went over to take a look and delayed your time.”

Host Liu hurriedly waved his hands and said: “It’s nothing, it’s nothing.”

After entering the door, several staff members felt that the rental house was too small.

The layout of one bedroom and one living room was only more than 30 square meters in total. The small living room was already piled up with some nutrient solutions and other supplies. It was cramped for a few adult male staff.

Ms. Liu said in embarrassment: “The place is too small, I can only wrong you and make it up. Please sit down, and I will pour water for you.”

Host Liu said: “Don’t bother, they are here to shoot and don’t need to appear on camera, they can just stand at the door. We just came to understand the situation and see if we can help.”

“Oh, okay, thank you for coming.” Ms. Liu said stiffly. Knowing that the camera had been opened, she was nervous and didn’t know how to speak.

Host Liu guided her and asked: “Are you the only one at home now?”

Ms. Liu smiled wryly: “The child’s father is guarding the ward, someone must always stay in there.”

Originally, this family of help-seekers was not in the original plan of this program.

Two days ago, the program team had already selected the two events of this program, and then suddenly received a letter for help.

The letter stated Niuniu’s strange disease and critical condition, so the program team temporarily inserted them.

Because of Niuniu’s urgent condition, their original order of appearance was first in the team competition, ahead of Taotao’s family.
