Seeing that none of them came out, the little girl pulled a boy out and said, "Elder Brother, you kept coughing last night. How about letting Elder Sister treat you?"
The boy didn't answer and coughed again. The little girl then pulled him to sit on the stool. Seeing the boy's pale face from coughing, Duan Yixin knew that the boy must have been infected with the plague. She took the disinfectant water from her leather bag and washed her hands.
Then, Duan Yixin put on surgical gloves and said to the boy, "Little brother, don't be afraid. Put your hand on the pulse pillow."
The boy looked at the little girl, who nodded to him and then placed his wrist on the pulse pillow. Seeing that the boy looked calm, Duan Yixin began to check the boy's pulse seriously. Different from when she checked the little girl's pulse, this time, it took Duan Yixin three minutes before she withdrew her fingers from the boy's wrist.
