Eight Uncles' Beloved Treasure (Lily)

Chapter 346 Taking Zachary To The Hospital

The live host, who identified himself as an atheist, was terrified. He had seen it too! Although he was

there to see it firsthand, that ghost vanished in an instant.

He swallowed his saliva and said, “Perhaps someone is jogging by.”

His friend holding the phone felt a prickling sensation on his scalp. He said, “Normal people wouldn’t

walk that fast. That thingy ran so steadily that it didn’t look like running.”

Suddenly, a pale face loomed from the top. It spoke in stern and cold tone, “What are you doing here?”

The live hosts and the audiences in the live-streaming room were astounded.

“Urghhhh!”

The live hosts, who identified themselves as atheists, fled in fear.

Blake sneered coldly.

People with so little courage are not supposed to visit places e this. Those who know nothing fear

nothing. One day they might be killed for a reason they were not aware of.

After that, Blake eventually left Bedlam Asylum.

Zachary, Lilly, and Josh were taken to the hospital by Bettany the following day.

Hannah’s father caught her for not yet doing her homework, and she was then forbidden from leaving

the house.

Lilly claimed she wanted to go to the hospital when she saw Granny taking Zachary there. Josh

naturally followed Lilly when he saw her leaving.

Drake was tempted to follow them, but he knew that others would think he was overly attached to Lils.

It would be embarrassing.

Lilly climbed onto the chair at the book counter and peered down. She asked, “Drake, are you coming

with us?”

Drake had a blank face. He seemed completely uninterested, and he replied, “Boring.”

Lilly pouted her lips and said, “Okay, we’re heading out now. You need to behave at home!”

Drake was stunned.

Did she assume I’m on the same level as them? She even urged me to be nice. This is so childish.

Drake resisted the urge to get up until the car’s engine noise subsided. Finally, he was compelled to put

his book down. He stretched his neck a little to take a look.

Polly’s voice chimed in, “Monkey, let me know if you want to go. If you don’t say anything, how would I

know?”

Drake suddenly glared at Polly.

Granny said they were going to the hospital and they could not take Polly, but… Lilly loves this parrot

so much that she would be in need of bringing it along, wouldn’t she? Fine, I’ll take the parrot to her.

After all, I always follow what Uncle Anthony says, and he told me that I needed to take care of Lils.

Since Drake was staring at it thoughtfully, Polly tilted its head and said, “Even though you’re looking at

me sincerely, you still have to tell me what you want. Do you actually want it? I’ll give it to you if you

request it. How was I going to say no to what you wanted? If you don’t want it, I will still give it to you.

Let’s he reasonable! I’ll count to three. You have to make it clear whether you want it or not.

These were verbose Tripitaka dialogues that Polly learned from The Legends of Monkey. It had been

flawlessly picked up by Polly. The parrot incessantly chirped and squawked, as Tripitaka did.

Drake abruptly grabbed its neck and said emotionlessly “Shut up!”

Polly protested, “Caw caw! Let go of me. Help! Help! A kid is being kidnapped!”

Drake’s patience had run out. He held it by its wing and changed his approach.

Polly could not take it anymore and reprimanded Drake, saying, “I’ve had enough of you! I’m going to

submit it to you! We can fight fairly if you have the guts to let me down!”

Drake went to Lilly’s room. He picked up the pet carrier and shoved Polly inside.

Polly kept babbling incoherently.

Drake was getting ready to leave. He overheard the noisy parrot nagging in the pet carrier. Polly

demanded, “Wait, at least bring along my good friend SpongeBob SquarePants!”

Polly mentioned a couple of disjointed lines from SpongeBob SquarePants.

At this time, Mr. Tortoise emerged from under the table with a strand of seaweed in his mouth.

Drake glanced at him and placed the tortoise in the percarrier too.

Mr. Tortoise had no idea what was going on.

What did I do? I just took a walk!

At the neurology department of the hospital.

Bettany decided to go to the public hospital where Gilbert worked rather than the private facility. She

had the time to kill, and she preferred the doctors in public hospitals; they were not as profit-driven as

the doctors in private hospitals.

Finally, it was her turn, Bettany went into the consultation room with the children.

The doctor was shocked and asked, “Who is the patient

Bettany called out to Zachary. She pushed him to sit down on the chair and said, “My grandson.”

Zachary sat in the chair, confused.

The doctor’s name, title, and department were all listed on a nameplate on the desk. He was a

specialist

2/4

from the Department of Pediatric Neurology.

Wait a minute. Is this doctor a specialist in pediatric neurology? I’ll be diagnosed by him.

Zachary looked up at the doctor in surprise.

Bettany explained, “When he was a little older than two years old, my grandson fell from the second-

floor balcony. We were completely unaware that he had crawled back into the house by himself. He’s

grown up now. His reactions become increasingly slower as he gets older. You see, he probably just

realized that he’s here for a medical check-up.”

Bettany looked worried. She felt guilty. No matter what the reason was, they had been negligent.

The doctor looked at Zachary and said, “Open your mouth and let me see your tongue. Arghhh!”

There was no response from Zachary.

The doctor urged patience while holding a cotton swab “Open your mouth, arghh!”

Zachary declined to say anything. He thought in his mind.

What in the world? I do not want to visit a physician!

He pursed his lips and refused to open his mouth.

I am not ill. I mean, didn’t I know whether I was sick or not?

Zachary’s expression became bitter. He got to his feet and wanted to leave. It was out of the question

for him to see a doctor.

I don’t want to appear foolish for going to the doctor; even if the king was in this room today or if

someone threw me off the second floor, I wouldn’t do it.

Zachary stood up right away, but two soft hands reached out from the side.

Lilly held Zachary. She patted his thigh and said, “Zac, sit down. You have to be a good boy! The doctor

is asking you to open your mouth, not to stand up!”

Zachary looked down at Lilly.

Sweet Pea looked concerned and worried. She hugged him tightly, as if she were worried he might

bolt. Her watery eyes were filled with genuine love.

There was no word from Zachary. He reluctantly sat down and opened his mouth.

The doctor was briefly astounded. It certainly appeared that his response was a little slow.

He conducted a routine inspection and discovered no problems. He had worked in the medical field for

years, and Zachary seemed fine to him. If there were issues, they would not be major ones. At least, it

was not an emergency situation where he had been running around today and collapsed tonight.

The doctor said as he entered the information into the computer, “In these cases, you should take him

earlier to the hospital. Actually, he should be fine after all these years if nothing out of the ordinary

occurs.

“Even though some children appear slow, they may not actually be. They look like they are responding

slowly on the outside, but the thoughts in their mind might not be slow. Such children, as long as they

find their appropriate field, can be more focused than anyone else and become experts in this field;

others can’t compete with them, and they would be peerless.

Bettany twitched her mouth as she suddenly recalled that Zachary had talent at games.

His expertise wouldn’t be gaming, right? In this case, he needs to receive more treatment.

Bettany was elderly, and she had more traditional thoughts and concepts. Even though eSports was a

profession now, she believed it to be unsustainable.

“If you still have concerns about this, we can perform a medical examination and order a brain CT,” the

doctor continued.

Zachary sneered secretly in his heart.

My god, do they really think I’m slow? Why should I have a CT scan? I didn’t want to do that. If my

classmates learned about it later, they would mock me and call me crazy

Zachary was about to say something.

Lilly suddenly said, as she was observing his aura from the side, “Zac, you need to get it done! Be a

good boy!”

Zachary was tongue-tied. He obediently sat back down on the chair after lifting his buttocks a few

inches

off the seat.
