Chapter 614

Matthew nodded. “The water is indeed clean because this kind of parasite doesn’t live in water. Instead,
they live on the lake bed. The eggs of the parasite are all at the bottom of the lake and once the fish eats
the eggs, it will carry the egg of this parasite in its body. Therefore, you won’t find anything by solely
testing the quality of the water.”

Professor Walter was surprised. “So that’s why! Oh my, I would never have thought of that! Enough said.
I must collect some samples to study it.”

Leading his students, Professor Walter started to collect samples.

Matthew didn’t stop them since this kind of parasite wasn’t too dangerous.

Even so, he gave his contact to Professor Walter.

If someone was accidentally infected with this parasite, they could seek Matthew to treat them.

Jonathan then approached Matthew. “Mr. Larson, I have a question but I’m not sure if I should ask it.”

Matthew smiled. “Are you wondering why all of you have different conditions?”

Embarrassed because he was seen through, Jonathan replied with a chuckle, “Y-Yes, that’s what I’m
curious about. Why do we have different conditions when we’re all infected with the same parasite?”

Matthew answered, “After the eggs of this parasite enter our body, not only is the hatching time different,
its location in our body is different too. Therefore, you’ll get different conditions since the parasite is
located in different parts of your body.”



Jonathan was surprised. “B-But why did I vomit parasites when my issue is having a headache?”



Matthew nodded. “It’s because the parasite that’s inside your body is on the wall of the blood vessel near
your organs. Every morning, noon and night when you take your meal, this parasite will absorb nutrients
as well. At that time, the parasites will move around, stressing the blood vessels, which in turn causes a
decrease of blood supply to the brain. Therefore, you have a headache. In the usual times, the existence
of the parasite will accelerate your blood flow, causing you to look full of vigor.”

Jonathan was enlightened. At the same time, he was blown away with admiration and respect for
Matthew.

“Mr. Larson, you are truly our life savior. I guarantee that there will be no issues with the development
project,” Jonathan said reverently.

Matthew nodded with a smile. “Thank you. I’ll pass the prescription to Dr. Ellis in a while. Dr. Ellis, I’m
afraid I have to trouble you to stay in the village for a few days.”

Dr. Ellis was overjoyed.

Actually, he had already decided to stay in the village for a few days even if Matthew didn’t ask him to.

He was crazy about medical knowledge and this was the first time he saw this kind of parasite.
Therefore, he was eager to stay here and study about it.

Now that Matthew had passed the prescription to him, it was equivalent to passing him the method of
treatment.

It could be said that he had learnt a new method of treatment from Matthew.

“Mr, Larson, don’t worry. You can count on me to settle the issues here,” said Dr. Ellis with deep
reverence.



Matthew nodded with a smile but the next second, he knitted his eyebrows while looking at the lake. “By
right, this kind of parasite should have long disappeared. Unexpectedly, there are still eggs of this
parasite in this lake. I’m glad we found out about it early. Otherwise, once this parasite reproduces in
mass, the situation will be out of control!”

Dr. Ellis immediately asked, “Mr. Larson, do you mean that there’s something fishy about this parasite?”

Matthew shook his head. “I’m not sure now but I feel that something’s not right. This parasite brings great
harm and it has been completely exterminated since a long time ago. The only places that these
parasites might exist are deep mountains and forests, which are off the beaten tracks. Therefore, it’s
strange that these parasites exist in a lake that is located near the city.”
