"Dr. Zhou..." Murphy didn't know how to speak, and his voice was as soft as a mosquito.
Zhou Qiao was shocked. Why did Murphy call him so late? Did the Qihua sachet work so quickly? impossible!
With Murphy's personality, it is unlikely that he would take the initiative to contact people. If that were the case, it would definitely not be autism!
"Murphy, does your grandpa have an emergency?" Zhou Qiao asked quickly.
Because as soon as Murphy took the initiative, something must have happened and he was forced to panic!
Murphy said softly: "No, it's my mother."
"Your mother?" Zhou Qiao became even more curious and asked, "Do you need me to do anything?"
Murphy bit his lip and said, "My mother was trapped in the Balboa Park subway station. She just came from Los Angeles. Now that subway station is full of gangsters with guns."
No need for Murphy to elaborate further, Zhou Qiao immediately understood and shouted on the phone: "Give me your mother's contact information quickly!"
Murphy sent her mother’s cell phone number.
Zhou Qiao said: "Wait for my news."
I hung up the phone and looked out the window a few times in the dark. Fortunately, there was no bloody gang fight nearby.
He quickly put on his clothes and went downstairs, quickly came to the laundry not far from the clinic, and knocked on the door.
Ariel, a strong black female warrior, stuck her head out and blinked her eyes, like two bright pearls in the dark: "Doctor Zhou, do you need any help?"
Zhou Qiao asked, "Can you pick someone up for me? It's not far away, at the subway station in Balboa Park."
"Okay! No problem!" Ariel came out quickly, fully armed.
Zhou Qiao handed the note with her mobile phone number to Ariel and said, "She is Murphy's mother Julia. She just came from Los Angeles and is stuck at the Park Subway Station. You can pick her up and send her directly to Murphy." Grandpa’s house.”
"OK, keep it on me!" Ariel said happily!
"Thank you!" Zhou Qiao took out another stack of US dollars, about two thousand, from his pocket, handed it to Ariel, and said, "Please!"
You can't let people run away in vain every time, it is also dangerous.
But Ariel didn't answer it, but smiled, paused for a moment, then took out one card and said with a smile: "One card is enough for a tip. Dr. Zhou, you are so polite!"
With that said, he strode away and got into the jeep.
Zhou Qiao shouted: "Thank you!"
When Ariel arrived near Balboa Park, her car was hit by several stray bullets and was hit with sparks.
Fortunately, her Jeep was modified and bulletproof, so the damage was not serious.
She had been communicating with her companions on 18th Street through the walkie-talkie. With the cover of several people, she managed to rush to an entrance of the subway station without any danger.
Ariel jumped out of the car, took cover, and called Murphy's mother.
Finally, the call was connected.
"Is it Murphy's mother?" Ariel asked.
Murphy's mother said quickly: "I am, I am!"
Ariel looked around but saw no one: "Where are you now? I'm at the exit at point A."
Murphy's mother: "I'm at exit B, behind an empty vending machine."
"Then just wait, I'll come to you right away!"
When Ariel, fully armed, appeared in front of Murphy's mother, Murphy's mother was simply shocked!
She never expected that a black female war goddess would come to pick her up!
This black female war goddess is as tall as a bear. She holds a submachine gun and has magazines, grenades, daggers, walkie-talkies, etc. hanging around her waist. She is majestic!
Suddenly, Murphy’s mother felt extremely safe!
Is Dr. Zhou this black woman? Murphy's mother suddenly felt relieved! Then he shouldn’t be able to deceive his daughter!
"Are you Dr. Zhou? Thank you!" After getting in the car, Murphy's mother was still in shock, but she finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Ariel grinned, showing her white teeth, and turned around and said, "I'm not. My name is Ariel!"
"Ah~, I'm sorry. Ariel, thank you!" Murphy's mother couldn't help but ask, "Then...who is Dr. Zhou?"
"He?" Ariel smiled and said, "It should be a light!"
Murphy’s mother: “…”
Why do you feel that this black woman’s words are unreliable? Nervous!
Another light! Is this what normal people say?
"Ariel, may I take the liberty of asking how you met my daughter?"
Ariel said: "I met Dr. Zhou first. Murphy works in Dr. Zhou's clinic! Sit tight, it's time to race! ... Lower your head, watch out for bullets!"
Murphy's mother felt the speed of Need for Speed and had no time to ask questions. However, she became more and more curious about Dr. Zhou!
In about ten minutes, Murphy's mother successfully arrived at the house where she grew up.
The house is no longer as new as it once was, and is as old as its elderly parents. However, looking at it is still so kind, and many memories from my childhood came to my mind.
For a moment, Julia felt her heart settle down.
"Ariel, thank you so much! Would you like to come in for a cup of coffee?" Murphy's mother invited.
Ariel waved her hand and grinned: "Come back next time when you have the chance. It's getting late, I'll leave first!"
Seeing that the other party was unwilling, Murphy's mother had no choice but to wave and watch the jeep disappear into the night.
There was still the sound of firecrackers in the distance. Julia walked up the steps and saw the door open. Murphy, who was tall and thin with sporadic freckles on his face, stood quietly at the door.
"My little baby!" Julia was so excited for a moment that she rushed over and hugged Murphy, who had a cold expression.
She thought her daughter had no feelings for her because she had always been cold and cold and never acted like a spoiled child like other children.
But this time, she felt the love from Murphy!
Autism, also known as autism, is mostly related to genetic factors. It can manifest as social communication deficits, restricted, repetitive behaviors, etc.
When Murphy was a child, her mother also took her to seek medical treatment in various ways, focusing on rehabilitation training and behavioral intervention, supplemented by drug treatment. Unfortunately, there is basically no cure for this disease, so it can only be alleviated.
The treatment effect was not very good, so her mother later stopped taking it.
The symptoms of autistic children are different for each person and vary from person to person. If divided according to the type of social interaction, it can be initially divided into three categories:
One is the indifferent type. Children with this type rarely take the initiative to initiate social interactions, except when they have needs (such as food and toys), and generally do not respond to social interactions offered by others.
The second is active but weird type. The patient has the willingness to actively interact with others, but the way of interaction seems strange, weird, and inappropriate.
The third is passive. They can accept social closeness and will not avoid the active closeness of others, especially family members. However, they will not take the initiative to initiate such social interactions, and social interactions appear stiff and rigid.
Murphy, on the other hand, is the passive type.
After many years of treatment, although she had little effect, she could still occasionally show initiative towards her family. Especially her grandparents and mother who have held her in their hands since childhood.
This time, her mother was in danger. Although she resisted asking for help, she still called Zhou Qiao. Of course, there is also a little boost from the exotic flower sachet.
Among children with autism, about 10% can exhibit Savant-Syndrome, also known as "Autistic savant"!
Murphy got his MD degree at the age of 19, which is a typical example of savant syndrome.
But even among "autistic scholars", her talent is one in a million!
Don’t make the mistake of thinking that every autistic child can be like Murphy!
