The car accident helped the driver find out that she had been carrying two sewing needles in her head for 29 years. The doctors who examined the patient after the road collision are sure that the needles hit the woman's brain when she was still a baby. It seems that now the police have to solve the case of the most unusual attempted murder. Medialeaks.
If in Anton Chekhov's story "I Want to Sleep" the servant Varya simply strangled a loudly screaming baby, then the case of a 29-year-old woman from China named Zhu is worthy to add to the list of the most non-standard attempts on children.
In early September, Zhu was involved in a car accident and received a referral for a CT scan of the brain from doctors in the city of Zhengzhou, according to the Chinese newspaper Sohu. The study showed that Zhu's brain was not damaged by the collision, which was not the case for the organ as a whole.
X-rays of the woman clearly showed two sewing needles about five centimeters long, located between the cerebral cortex and the thalamus.
According to OddityCentral, the doctors were faced with a simple question: when and how did the needles get into the brain.
The needles were not associated with a car accident, as no visible damage was found on the patient's skull. The woman did not remember that she received serious head injuries throughout her life, journalists convey the words of doctors.
How did the needles get into Zhu's brain? Doctors are sure: in a natural way - someone simply stuck them into the woman's skull, but he did it about 29 years ago, when the patient was still a baby. The bones of adults are too hard to be pierced with a simple needle. In children under two years old, they are soft and flexible, including the skull.

The only thing the medics don't care about is Zhu's life. The woman has never experienced headaches or other discomfort due to foreign objects in her brain. Moreover, the needles are so thin and so well inserted that they do not interfere with the functioning of the organ. Yes, doctors are not going to get them yet.
But the Zhengzhou policemen were already interested in Zhu's case. The woman took the results of the tomography to law enforcement officers who have to investigate who and why almost killed the little Chinese woman nearly three decades ago.
