2399 The Lost Pearl
Zheng Ren did not know that there was a pair of eyes staring at him in the dark, nor did he know that someone was looking for his faults and waiting for him to make a mistake.
That night, she slept in a mess and even dreamed of fighting with mutated roundworms in the second half of the night.
‘It’s been a long time since I’ve had an operation in the middle of the night. If only no one in the world would get sick,’Zheng Ren thought to himself as he got up.
He ate, made ward rounds, and performed surgery.
Although the days were new and the weather was getting hotter, life was still the same.
Zheng Ren did not find it boring. He was just a little troubled by the adrenaline and glucose metabolism in his body after being woken up in the middle of the night and taken to the hospital for surgery.
For the surgery, old Gao was in a group with Lin Yuan, Gu Xiaoran, and other in-service training doctors. Zhao Wenhua led the doctors under him into a group. They were already quite skilled in TIPS.
Zheng Ren also rarely entered the operating theater to knock on surgeries. He only quietly did film-cutting and waited for the post-surgery lecture.
“Boss, director Zhou’s article was published on New England.” Su Yun looked at the message on her phone and said indifferently.
“Oh.” Zheng Ren didn’t think much of it either.
It’s just a report on a single case. Do you need to take it seriously? There was no need for that at all.
“General manager Zhou said he’s treating.”
“Noon or evening?” Zheng Ren asked.
“Such a big thing must happen at night. He’s no longer a chief resident, so he has nothing to do.” Su Yun chuckled.
“Sure, let’s go out and eat.” Zheng Ren said without a care. Eating meant that everyone was chatting together. As for what they ate, Zheng Ren did not care.
After the surgery, he would take care of the patients, have lunch, and give a lecture in the afternoon. The process was as dry and boring as water, and only Zheng Ren did not feel that way.
At fouro’ clock in the afternoon, Su Yun went to find Zhou Litao.
When she went to the emergency department, she saw that Zhou Litao had already changed his clothes and was leisurely waiting for Zheng Ren and Su Yun.
“Old Zhou, are you leading a much better life now that you’re not a chief resident?” Su Yun asked with a smile.
“Thank you for your hard work, President Tang.” Zhou Litao said with a smile. His smile came from the bottom of his heart, and the freckles on his face were almost flying.
The new chief resident was called Tang Haitao. He was about 1.8 meters tall, and his face was a little dark. However, he did not speak in the dark-faced man’s voice. Instead, his voice was a little gentle.
Su Yun patted Zhou Litao’s shoulder when she saw President Tang was so busy that his feet were hitting the back of his head.
It’s good that you’ve made it through.
“What do you need to advance?” Su Yun asked.
“Brother Yun, boss Zheng doesn’t have to do national-level research. When are you doing it? can you bring me along?” Zhou Litao asked.
The few of them were already very familiar with each other, so there was no need to be polite.
“Tell the boss to add your name to the project team. It’s better than anything else.” Su Yun said.
“I’m sorry. ” Zhou Litao touched his head and said with a chuckle.
“This is the era of reverse elimination. The thinner your skin is, the slower you’ll walk. Don’t look at the boss, can you compare to him? He already has a girlfriend, do you?” Su Yun stabbed Zhou Litao’s soft spot.
“……”
Zhou Litao was speechless.
Zheng Ren smiled. Just as he was about to speak, he saw a Gurney pushing a patient back in a hurry.
The system panel was blood-red, but because of the distance, Zheng Ren could not see the diagnosis.
“What patient?” Zheng Ren asked.
“A 12-year-old child. He’s nauseated, vomiting, and has a plate-like abdomen.” Zhou Litao said,”he went for a chest and abdomen resuscitation. I think he has a gastrointestinal perforation.”
It was rare for children to have gastrointestinal perforation. However, the symptoms were right there, and they were objective evidence. It was impossible not to make a diagnosis.
Soon, the Gurney was pushed over. Zheng Ren frowned as he looked at the system panel.
Gastronomic rupture, colon rupture, acute Qiao ye, intestinal adhesion, and septic shock …
The series of diagnoses showed that the patient’s condition was critical.
President Tang didn’t have time to talk. He directed the resuscitation while watching a film.
Zheng Ren went over to take a look.
There were many white dots in the small patient’s stomach. Zheng Ren thought at first glance that it was a pearl necklace, but he immediately denied this possibility.
There was no doubt that pearls were visible under X-rays. However, the images would not be so dense and ‘solid’.
‘It doesn’t seem like it’s a metal object either …’ Zheng Ren denied his own opinion.
Metal objects would not cause multiple ruptures in the stomach and intestines. At most, the stomach would rupture, and the metal object would fall into the abdominal cavity.
It was possible that it was an infection, but the series of white things connected together and seemed to be in the colon. What was it? It was so strange.
“Ding dong~”
The system notification rang.
Zheng Ren frowned and took a look at the mission, hoping to get some hints.
[Urgent mission: the Lost Pearl
[Mission details: successfully remove the foreign body from the abdominal cavity]
[Mission time: 4 hours]
[Mission reward: 100000 experience points, 30000 skill points, 2 Krypton gold treasure chests, Luck +2.]
Zheng Ren was stunned when he saw the system mission.
Based on his understanding of the pork trotter, the content of the reward was directly related to the difficulty of the surgery. If it was just a foreign body in the abdominal cavity that needed to repair the gastrointestinal tract, the system would definitely not give so many rewards.
What exactly was in the child’s stomach? according to the system notification … That thing was completely useless. It only gave a simple description of the image. Pearl? It was impossible.
Zheng Ren was in a daze as he pondered. Su Yun nudged his shoulder with her shoulder and said,””Boss, let’s go eat.”
“Wait a moment.” Zheng Ren frowned and said,”director Zhou, get me a white shirt.”
Although Zhou Litao was no longer a chief resident, Zheng Ren was still used to calling him chief Zhou.
Zhou Litao was stunned for a moment, then he turned around and ran to get the White clothes. Zheng Ren strode into the resuscitation room and saw Tang Haitao taking the stethoscope from his neck.
President Tang was directing the resuscitation, and he didn’t think the patient’s condition was that serious. This was a naughty child who had eaten something unknown. They just had to place the venous access, perform gastrointestinal decompression, and then send the child to the gastrointestinal surgery department.
“Boss Zheng,” President Tang didn’t expect boss Zheng to come in, so his voice immediately became much softer. He greeted Zheng Ren in the midst of his busy schedule and then started to listen to the sound of his intestines.
However, as soon as the stethoscope landed on the young patient’s stomach, Zheng Ren heard a scream. The young patient, who had already been infected and in shock, was screaming in a low voice.
At the same time, Zheng Ren saw the stethoscope being grabbed by something and pressed on the child’s stomach.
At the same time, something in her stomach seemed to push up, and it was connected to the stethoscope. Tang Haitao was stunned for a moment, then he carefully moved his stethoscope.
Before he could react, he wanted to pull the stethoscope off.
“Don’t move!” Zheng Ren rushed forward and knocked on Haitao’s left radial process.
“Ah?” Tang Haitao was stunned.
“It might be a magnet.” Zheng Ren said in a deep voice.
