Medical Examination

Zhan Xinghua frowned and said in a low voice, "Move aside!" ”
Mom didn't say anything more. She bit her lip and shook her head fiercely. Zhanxiage widened her eyes as she watched her father and mother repeatedly tearing and fighting over their mother at the doorstep.
Zhan Xinghua's patience finally ran out. He shouted angrily, "Then don't let it go!" Let me tell you, Chen Yuhong, since you chose to marry a soldier, you must be prepared to become a soldier's wife. At critical moments, you absolutely cannot hold a soldier back! If you can't do it and want a divorce, I agree. I'll sign. No matter what, today I will take my son away! ”
Chen Yuhong was truly scared stiff! She leaned dazedly against a wall, watching as Zhan Xinghua dragged Zhan Xiagege out of the house and into a Shanghai sedan that had already stopped in front of her house.
After twelve hours of bumpy travel, Zhanxiage was taken directly to the provincial military district hospital. If attending the medical exam counted as "fun," then he truly experienced a game he had never experienced before.
The military district hospital also operates externally, but the vast majority of patients here are active-duty soldiers or their families. Sons of high-ranking military officials like Zhan Xiagege all have a medical certificate, which allows boys to enjoy free medical care and check-ups until the age of eighteen. Even if you want to get a heart transplant here, the hospital won't charge you a cent. Girls seem to get free insurance until sixteen, but it wasn't until after sixteen that Zhan Xia Ge suddenly understood why boys could get two years of free medical insurance compared to girls.
Zhan Xinghua strode into the Provincial Military District Hospital with Zhan Xiaoge. Like any ordinary hospital, the hospital had a unique hospital scent as soon as you entered, but it was cleaner, quieter, and more serious than a typical hospital. The marble floor was scrubbed so smooth it was bare, and some nurses and doctors passed through the hall. Perhaps they had left the barracks, but the shadow of their military training still lingered, and they walked with vigor and no sign of laziness.
No matter how you looked at it, Zhanxiage felt that in the main hall, those carefully maintained potted trees had the tall and imposing presence of a sentry standing before a military camp. It's likely that the florist in charge of pruning the potted plants is either an active or retired soldier.
There are three windows at the registration desk, where soldiers or their family members quietly line up in two long lines. On some long benches, others wait quietly. Although some are dressed in civilian clothes, just by looking at their upright, mountain-like posture, you can guess their true identities.
Zhan Xinghua went to the third window, which was the reception window for senior officers. It was said that only officers at the regiment level or above could receive direct and prompt service there. Zhan Xinghua handed over his officer ID along with a document that was unclear whether it was a letter of introduction, but for some reason, it took a full ten minutes before the staff handed over a medical examination form from the window.
A doctor standing 180 centimeters tall, more like an iron-blooded soldier than a doctor, quickly walked up to Zhan Xinghua, saluted him, and said, "Greetings, Comrade Zhan Xinghua. My name is Chen Zhiqi, the doctor responsible for guiding Zhan Xiagege for a physical examination." According to our regulations, only the person being examined is eligible to enter the special health examination area. We need to conduct systematic tests on children from all psychological and physical perspectives when they are out of parental sight, so please support our work and rest in the VIP reception room. Please forgive me! ”
Feng Xinghua nodded understandingly. In his view, a six-year-old boy who still can't leave his parents is not a future eagle, but a chick in a chicken coop! He handed the war hero song to Chen Zhiqi and said in a deep voice, "Thank you for your trouble!" ”
Zhanxiage was led by Chen Zhiqi, who could only be described as a stranger, into the testing center marked "Forbidden Zone." On both sides of the long corridor, there were more than a dozen rooms whose purpose was unknown. There wasn't a single window in the entire room. What puzzled Zhanxiage most was that the locks on these doors were installed outside, making them look like cells used to hold prisoners.
Chen Zhiqi casually opened a room and pointed inside, saying, "Someone is currently undergoing inspection. You go in first and wait. When it's your turn, I'll come pick you up." ”
It was a room only six or seven square meters in size. Inside, there was nothing but a chair, and everything around was bare, with no windows or decorations. When Chen Zhiqi closed the door, the entire room was plunged into complete darkness, completely devoid of any light.
"Clack......"
Chen Zhiqi locked the door from outside, while Zhanxiage sat quietly in the cramped space. Running alone before dawn, he was already used to this darkness. He sat dazed in his chair, and now all he could think of was his mother, Chen Yuhong, with her desperate and sorrowful face.
A six-and-a-half-year-old child can already clearly understand the meaning of the word "divorce"!
Sitting quietly in the darkness, Zhanxiage could faintly hear the cries of children coming from next door, and suddenly a loud "crash" came from the next room.
Hurried footsteps sounded in the corridor. Chen Zhiqi stood in front of the door of the room next to Zhanxia Ge and asked, "What are you doing?" ”
A child's crying came from next door: "I've rebelled! I smashed the door!" But...... I just can't break it no matter what! ”
(Little demon: Haha, writing this suddenly makes me want to laugh, but...... Believe me, this is a true, direct transcript. The children who grew up in the military district compound received different educations, and what they said was indeed very 'distinctive'! )
