Chapter 680: Dreamt Of A Big Quilt
Working continuously? One after another?
“Doctor Zheng, your body…” Chief Jiang hesitated for a moment.
Since the start of the surgery, he had changed how he addressed Zheng Ren to ‘you’.
“It’s okay.” Zheng Ren smiled. He was wearing a sterile mask, so his smiling face could not be seen clearly. However, his narrowed eyes were full of kindness. “Let’s hurry up. There are many patients outside. If we delay for too long, I’m afraid there will be a problem.”
“Okay.” Chief Jiang knew why Zheng Ren was so desperate, but…he really could not bear to do it.
Zheng Ren had just come down from the frontline. His face was covered with injuries and his body had countless bruises. He also had to wear a lead apron that weighed more than ten to twenty kilograms to perform the surgery. How could he bear to make him go through so much?
However, he was forced by the situation and could not do anything about it.
Chief Jiang’s mood was very complicated. He called the doctors under him to push the patients out and asked them to follow Su Yun’s instructions.
The junior doctor there was so tired that he could barely walk. As the outpost’s transit base, they had not gone home since the earthquake. At most, they would take a nap in the hospital but were quickly woken up again.
Looking at the junior doctor who was about to fall asleep while walking, Chief Jiang felt a little ashamed.
He rubbed his hands and said somewhat embarrassedly, “Doctor Zheng, I’m really sorry. They haven’t slept much for two to three days.”
“I know, it’s fine,” Zheng Ren said. “Prepare the patient’s radiographic films. We have to check them closely. We can’t make any mistakes because of work and tiredness.”
Without realizing it, Zheng Ren felt as if he had returned to Sea City and was explaining things to the junior doctor under him.
This was the unique aura of a high-level demon. It could not be faked.
Chief Jiang did not feel that there was anything wrong with it. The other party’s surgery was amazing. Whatever he said was right.
Moreover, there was nothing wrong with the things that Doctor Zheng had instructed him to do.
Chief Jiang immediately went to personally instruct the junior doctor on many things. Zheng Ren tore off his sterile clothes and simply sat on the ground. He leaned against the wall and rested for a while.
“Boss, if you sit like this, you’ll get hemorrhoids. Internal hemorrhoids mixed with external hemorrhoids, the kind that bleeds profusely,” Su Yun said.
“I’m tired…” Zheng Ren’s tone was filled with endless exhaustion.
It was the first time Zheng Ren said he was tired after coming out of the Imperial Capital Hospital, having to go through a long journey and fight countless battles.
In Nanchuan Town, Su Yun slept for a while in the rain while Zheng Ren had been searching for survivors and performing surgeries.
However, there was nothing he could do even if he was tired.
There were countless emergency patients outside, and there were only so many doctors, especially qualified interventional doctors. There were only so many of them.
“Boss, I slept in Nanchuan Town. Guess what I dreamt of?” Su Yun did not sigh or mock Zheng Ren. Instead, he asked a question.
“I think I’m so tired now that I can’t even dream.” Zheng Ren leaned his head against the wall. His eyes were closed, and his speech had already begun to slur.
“I dreamed of a big quilt. It’s the kind of quilt made of cotton wool from Shandong. It’s especially heavy. It feels warm when it covers my body.” Su Yun sat next to Zheng Ren and whispered, “Sleeping in the rain. It’s so damn cold. If I can go back, I’ll sleep under the quilt for a few days.”
“Well, I can’t sleep enough for three days. I can’t even wake up when I’m under the quilt…”
“Take a rest. The patient will come up in a while. I’ll call you after I’m done sterilizing,” Su Yun whispered.
“No… You start sterilizing. I’ll go wash my hands,” Zheng Ren said and fell asleep.
A few minutes later, the patient was brought up.
Seeing that Zheng Ren had fallen asleep in the corner, Chief Jiang and the few doctors under him did not care. At this time, everyone wanted to sleep. They were so tired that they could not feel much.
Su Yun began to wash his hands but did not call Zheng Ren.
He was prepared to perform the surgery himself. Interventional surgery for pelvic fractures was not difficult for him. He had already seen it.
However, the sound of the circulating nurse pouring water rang out. Zheng Ren appeared beside him before he finished brushing his hands.
“Hey, do you want to sleep with your ears being attuned to the noises around you? It’s not good to sleep like that,” Su Yun nagged.
“I slept for a while, so I’m more energetic.” Zheng Ren did not brush his hands. Instead, he waited for Su Yun. “You can go to the operating table later. You’re not needed inside.”
“What do you mean?”
Zheng Ren saw Su Yun looking at him from the corner of his eyes. His gaze was like the flickering fireworks in the drizzle last night.
“Forget it.” Zheng Ren yawned.
Su Yun did not argue with Zheng Ren and turned to disinfect.
Zheng Ren originally thought that with the System’s equipment, he would at least be stronger than Su Yun.
But that guy said he would not do anything… Well, he could do it faster if he came in to set up the stage.
Zheng Ren took advantage of the intermission period to change into the lead apron and gulped down a mouthful of an energy drink. Only then did he brush his hands and put on a sterile suit to go on stage.
He was already exhausted. Zheng Ren could not care less about whether there was a problem regarding the whole situation and the System.
If there was anything, he would talk about it in the future.
A fire was burning at his eyebrows and he had to focus on the present.
Su Yun went up to the stage in high spirits. He glanced at Zheng Ren and did not ask anything.
The air-tight lead door was closed and the surgery began.
“Take a good look at his technique.” Chief Jiang and the junior doctor under him stood in the operating room, he pointed at the screen and said, “Although we’re doing circulatory interventions, the basic technique is the same. This junior Doctor Zheng doesn’t look very old, but his skill level is quite high.”
“Master, are all the amazing people from all over the country here?” a junior doctor asked.
Professor Mu, who was performing the surgery in the next room, had such a high skill level that it made people click their tongues. Another doctor from the intervention department came from the frontline. His skill level was also quite high.
Since when did so many doctors get involved?
“Of course. This is a transit station. If we were in another place, do you think they would come?” Chief Jiang patted the junior doctor’s head and shouted, “Everyone, be alert and watch carefully.”
The image on the screen immediately began to move. From the last image of the last patient, it was transformed into the image of the current patient.
They started to step on the line inside.
Micro-wire, micro-catheter, angiography, super selection, embolization…Every step looked very simple. It was the most basic operation, and there was no dazzling technique.
It was simple and plain.
However, they were all specialized doctors. The patient’s blood vessels were thick and thin. The difficulty of the surgery was high but still easy enough for them to comprehend it.
Such thin blood vessels were directly entered. The superselection was successful and done without any hint of hesitation. It was so simple that it made people’s hair stand on its ends.
In the surgeon’s eyes, the rugged mountain road had turned into a six-row highway that he was speeding through the entire way. The surgery took 14 minutes and 32 seconds to complete!
Chief Jiang felt ashamed.
When he recalled that he had just been ‘supporting the stage’, it was not the case at all. He had actually been dragging him down and delaying him!
It turned out that he was too slow for the other.
Fortunately, Doctor Zheng had a good temper. If he had not slept for a few days and nights and had come down from the frontline to meet a chief who had a bad temper… He definitely would have cursed out loud.
Fortunately, that was not the case.
“Master, I understand the surgery, but…”
“But what?”
“I don’t know what I can learn…” the junior doctor said in a daze.
