Tian Qi's assistant was wearing a pair of pointy heels that were as long as a finger. When she walked, the heels made a loud thud, and she looked very much like a skeleton spirit.
She whispered with Tian Qi for two to three minutes before she remembered about eight points. Then, she left with a serious face.
Ling Ran could tell that Tian Qi seemed to be really busy.
"I'm sorry." Tian Qi sat down again and apologized. "The newly acquired company is not running smoothly, and there are many things that I need to make decisions about."
"It's okay. Since the subordinate has handed over the problem, it's best to deal with it immediately." Ling Ran was not surprised. For doctors, even if it was a problem passed on by a resident doctor, the department director had to take it seriously no matter how unhappy he was. Especially during night shifts, no one was happy or willing to make a call, just like the person who answered the phone.
Tian Qi smiled sweetly. She obviously liked Ling Ran's understanding. She looked at the sunset outside the window, and then at Ling Ran's face under the sunset. The joy in her heart was even more obvious.
Even the chocolate after a meal could not compare to the sweetness in Tian Qi's heart.
* Thud, thud, thud. *
The assistant's high heels knocked on the floor of the dining room again.
Tian Qi looked over and saw the assistant make a gesture that they had discussed in advance.
Tian Qi quickly waved her hand and called the assistant over. She whispered into her ear, "Did someone really get injured?"
"Yes, a crew member's finger should have been injured, and he went to the cruise ship's doctor. The cruise ship's doctor prescribed him painkillers, but he was not very satisfied and wanted to get off the ship for treatment. I heard about it, and I immediately came to report, "the assistant answered in a low voice.
"Someone was injured, and he went to the cruise ship's doctor for treatment, but he did not succeed?" Tian Qi nodded slowly and deliberately asked, "Isn't this too much of a coincidence?"
"I think so too, but the Ministry of Security thinks that the risk of leaking information is very small, and they have also investigated the condition of the injured crew member …" the assistant explained carefully.
"Understood." Tian Qi replied. She did not ask the assistant to leave and asked Ling Ran, "Doctor Ling, a crew member was injured on the ship just now. Are you interested?"
Ling Ran was already full. He put down the dessert spoon and asked, "What symptoms?"
"The fingernail of the index finger is black from the middle, and the fingernail of the middle finger is also black," the assistant answered. The assistant replied, "He went to the cruise ship's infirmary. The doctor prescribed painkillers and advised him to go to the port hospital for a checkup."
"Painkillers?"
"According to the crew, the doctors on the cruise ship only prescribe painkillers, no matter what kind of illness it is. Prescribe painkillers for a cold, painkillers for an injury, and painkillers for a stomachache or a headache. "The assistant obviously made a simple inquiry.
Ling Ran found it interesting and asked, "Where is he?"
"I came here with him in the balance car. The restaurant is the only way, so I asked him to wait in the lounge. "
Ling Ran nodded. "Since we're here, let's go and take a look."
As he spoke, Ling Ran stood up and looked at Tian Qi.
Before Ling Ran could say anything, Tian Qi smiled. "We've finished all the desserts. If you like it, you can go and watch it."
"Sure." Ling Ran did not hide his interest. After leaving the hospital for a few hours, he still missed the feeling of treatment and surgery.
Tian Qi smiled and followed behind him. She looked at Ling Ran's back at a steady pace.
The lounge was the waiting room of the restaurant. At this time, it was also beautifully decorated. There were a few sofas, and it looked spacious and new.
A few crew members in uniform sat on the sofa near the door. The crew member in the middle had one hand on the sofa, and he was a little restless.
"Don't worry. If you can't treat it on the spot, it won't take long to go to the nearby hospital." Ling Ran looked at the patient, walked over, sat down, and explained the current situation to the patient.
The crew member sitting in the middle became quiet as expected.
"Is it a finger injury? Let me take a look. " Ling Ran took out a bottle of alcohol-based hand sanitizer from his pocket and wiped it. Then, he gently turned the patient's wrist to observe the blackened fingers.
The patient's fingers were blackened from his fingers to his middle finger, but there was no swelling or damage.
"I don't know what's going on. It was fine in the morning, but then it suddenly turned black, and it got darker and darker …" The crew member placed his trembling finger in front of Ling Ran and continued, "I searched online, and the blackening of fingers seems to be quite serious. Some said that it's a heart problem, and some said that it's a liver or kidney problem? Some said that it's going to be amputated … "
Ling Ran did not answer. He only looked at the crew member and asked, "Do you remember any external injuries on the fingers?"
"No." The crew member recalled and shook his head slowly before he said, "But I went in and out of the basement a few times today. I might have touched some machines. I've been too busy today, and I've been jogging here most of the time. I might not even know if I'm injured. "
"Okay."
"Is it serious?" The crew member looked at Ling Ran's expression carefully.
"Let me confirm it again, and I'll give you a conclusion." As Ling Ran spoke, he shook the crew member's wrist and said, "I'll touch it. If you feel any pain, tell me."
As he spoke, Ling Ran gently checked the crew member's finger bones according to the physical examination procedure.
The Master Level Physical Examination and the experience of performing hundreds of finger replantation surgeries could make anyone's finger tremble and reveal all their secrets if they were placed on it.
The crew member looked a little puzzled, but he did not scream.
"It doesn't hurt?" Ling Ran asked.
"It hurts a little. It's like being pricked by a needle," the crew member answered hesitantly.
Ling Ran hummed in acknowledgment and stood up. "Then, it's fine."
"Really?" The crew member was surprised. The crew members beside him could not help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Ling Ran said with certainty, "Really."
"Then … how do we deal with it? Do we need to go to the hospital at the port? "The crew member who came with him asked on his behalf. His assistant and Tian Qi, who came later, also looked over curiously.
Ling Ran thought for a moment and said, "If you want to deal with it, you can try washing your hands with soap first. If it doesn't work, you can try using gasoline or alcohol … Since it's a dye of unknown origin, you might need to try it a few more times."
"What do you mean?" The crew members did not quite understand.
Ling Ran then changed his words. "It's dyed. You just need to wash it clean. There's no need for special treatment."
"Dyed? Not injured? "
"No," the crew member said anxiously.
"But when I press my finger on it, it still hurts a little. It feels different from other fingers."
"The dye on the finger is corrosive, so there will be a slight burning sensation on the finger. When you touch it, it will become more painful." Ling Ran paused for a moment and said, "The pain from external injuries is much more intense."
The crew member's finger trembled twice.
The faces of the people beside him also showed different kinds of smiles.
"Okay, let's go back." Ling Ran touched his stomach and decided to go back to the hospital to take a look. A finger that was only dyed was indeed not very satisfying.
Tian Qi covered her mouth and smiled. "Then, I'll send you back."
…..
Emergency Medical Center.
Most of the doctors had already gotten off work and went home.
Lu Wenbin, Ma Yanlin, and Zuo Cidian stayed in the hospital.
It was rare for Lu Wenbin and Ma Yanlin to have the opportunity to be chief surgeons, so they naturally cherished it and refused to let go of even the slightest chance.
In tertiary Grade A hospitals nowadays, attending physicians definitely had so many surgeries that they could not finish them all. But for resident doctors, it was an extremely rare opportunity to be a chief surgeon in a surgery. Many young doctors who had just arrived at the hospital hoped so much that their girlfriends would break up with them, their blow-up dolls would be worn out, and their large white coats would be changed to new ones, but they still did not get to be chief surgeons.
They were all doctors in Yun Hua Emergency Medical Center. If they were not in Ling Ran's treatment group, Lu Wenbin and Ma Yanlin might still have to stay as first assistants for one or two years before they could have so many chief surgeries.
According to the time, Lu Wenbin should have been hired as an attending physician by then.
Even Zuo Cidian was extremely envious at this time.
Of course, he did not go home because he wanted to do surgeries. It was mainly because his house was quiet, and he had nothing to do when he went home.
"Wow …"
Cheers came from the corridor of the operating theater.
"Doctor Ling is here." Although Zuo Cidian could not hear what was being shouted outside the door of the operating theater, he could confirm the identity of the person just by listening to the cheers and noises.
After a while, the door of the operating theater was opened.
"Doctor Ling."
"Doctor Ling …"
The medical staff who were performing the surgery greeted Ling Ran.
The patient who was anesthetized by the brachial plexus also looked at Ling Ran curiously. Then, he could not help but hold his breath.
The anesthetist raised his eyelids tiredly and looked at the surging numbers on the monitor. He calmly told himself, 'Calm down, the patient is a man, wait for him to calm down.'
"Is the surgery going smoothly?" Ling Ran went to the chief surgeon's side.
"The finger replantation is going smoothly so far. The patient is thirty-seven years old, and he's a carpenter …" Lu Wenbin gave a simple introduction.
Ling Ran listened and nodded. He looked at the general situation and did not interfere with Lu Wenbin's operation. He turned around and said to Zuo Cidian, "I looked at the records you sent me in the car. At that time, Lu Wenbin was performing the M-Tang suture? And Chief Physician Tao and the others were there to watch? "
"Yes," Zuo Cidian answered. "I deliberately invited Chief Physician Tao over."
"Is there anything special? Compared to other surgeries with people watching? "
"Chief Physician Tao is more talkative," Lu Wenbin replied.
Zuo Cidian agreed and said, "Indeed. Chief Physician Tao also gave a lecture to the in-service training doctors and interns on the scene. He said that Doctor Lu's M-Tang suture is very beautiful, and he is famous in our hospital. Our Young Lu couldn't even close his mouth when he talked about it."
Lu Wenbin coughed a few times. "Chief Physician Tao has a nice way of talking."
Zuo Cidian was a little jealous and said, "???" "Of course. There are two types of surgeons who have a nice way of talking. One type doesn't know how to perform surgery, and the other type is about to retire …"
Ling Ran listened and nodded. "If that's the case, then let's invite Chief Physician Tao to watch Ma Yanlin's surgery."
"Chief Physician Tao's live lectures are indeed very invigorating." Zuo Cidian felt that he understood what Ling Ran meant, and he agreed. "Since he's good at talking, let him talk more."
