There were points of disagreement. Ono Tofu was a chiropractor among other things. He knew shiatsu and moxibuxtion and a number of other techniques, but was not a doctor in the sense of an MD or DO. His prescriptions were more along the lines of herbal remedies from a Chinese apothecary than anything else. On the other hand, what he could do with shiatsu was fairly impressive.
Kumori Mizuno, on the other hand, was a hospital based physician and an MD. Without much in the way of the equipment she was used to, she could still do quite a bit.
Between the two of them, Hotaru found herself being given a thorough examination. Doctor Mizuno wanted to take blood and urine samples back to the hospital to have lab work done on them.
Meanwhile, the other girls were discovering the first bit of training that had been planned for them.
"This is some of that 'nannymesh' stuff?" asked Makoto, holding up the suit.
"Actually these are something along the line of resistance suits," said Ranma from his position outside the tent. "Every move you make while wearing these is going to require more effort. Basic strength and endurance training."
"It doesn't feel any different," said Haruka, stepping out in what looked like a loose jogging suit with hood.
"If you'll look at your left wrist you'll see a button," said Ranma. "Try pressing it."
Haruka glared momentarily, but pressed it.
shuff! went the suit as it went tighter, extending around hands and feet.
thump! went Haruka as she wasn't prepared to lose her mobility to the extent that she just had.
"I really hate that yoma" said Haruka into the dirt.
"You'll be given an hour around camp wearing the suits to get used to 'em," said Ranma. "Then we'll hit the next phase."
"The next phase?" asked Makoto, carefully stepping over Haruka.
"Yeah," said Ranma, remembering he had to take it easy on these girls. He really had to tone it down from the training methods his father had used. "After you've had a chance to get used to the resistance suits -"
