Zheng Ren changed his clothes and returned to the first general surgery department. Old Chief Physician Pan gave him a big thumbs up.
The old chief had used an outdated method to express his joy. This was praise and recognition for Zheng Ren.
However, the faces of his colleagues in the first general surgery department were a little gloomy. They looked at Zheng Ren with a strange and distant gaze.
"I'll take you to eat and rest." Old Chief Physician Pan patted Zheng Ren's shoulder happily and pulled him away.
However, Zheng Ren did not need to eat or rest. He was keenly aware that the transparent screen on the upper right side of his vision seemed to have become clearer after the surgery.
He needed to confirm something. It was a matter of life and death.
After rejecting the invitation, Old Chief Physician Pan looked at Zheng Ren with a twinkle in his eyes. In the end, he could only drag Xie Yiren to have a 'casual' meal.
Zheng Ren returned to the emergency department, turned on his phone, and ordered a set of chives and egg dumplings.
While there was still twenty minutes before the delivery driver arrived, Zheng Ren lay on the bed in the emergency male on-call room, closed his eyes, and entered the System space.
It was still the scene he saw when he first arrived. If there was anything different, it would be the constant change in color.
The first time he entered the System space and was assigned to complete ten perfect surgeries, the space seemed to have been covered by the dust of time.
Now, the color seemed to have recovered, and there was a trace of vitality.
There was a huge change in the skill tree, from the 330-point Advanced skill tree to the 1,005-point Expert skill tree.
Was this the result of the intensive training? So, he was amazing here? Zheng Ren could not believe it. His heart was filled with joy.
"Is anyone there?" Zheng Ren shouted.
There was no response.
What a strange System. Did it not communicate with the host? It told him that he would be erased at any time if he could not complete the mission. It had no EQ at all.
Zheng Ren cursed a few times but did not find any clues. Only then did he return to reality.
It was not completely fruitless. Zheng Ren guessed that the System had used up its energy and needed some way to 'recharge'.
This method was to perform a perfect surgery himself.
For a doctor, this was a little too much, but Zheng Ren could not find any other reasonable explanation.
Fortunately, he had a good start today. The first surgery was a difficult ectopic appendix plus acute suppurative appendicitis.
Most importantly, Zheng Ren was sure that his general surgery level had reached the expert level. This undoubtedly gave a small attending physician more confidence.
He hoped for a few simple appendicitis cases. He did not want to walk a tightrope and risk his life. His priority was to save his own life.
His colleagues in the emergency department were starting to resent his arrival.
The people who were sent to the Emergency Department were all salted fish. They were either rejected by their original departments, or they were sent here to work 24 hours a day and rest for 35 days.
If the Emergency Department set up an Emergency Operating Room, wouldn't that mean that everyone would be busier? Take on more responsibilities?
The doctors here were all in their forties. If they were willing to be salted fish, no one could change that. Old Chief Physician Pan, a powerful military doctor, was the same.
However, this was not something he needed to worry about. All he needed to do was wait patiently for the next appendicitis patient to arrive.
As night fell, the emergency department started to get busy.
Car accidents, drunken fights, overeating leading to acute gastrointestinal inflammation, cerebral hemorrhage after drinking, myocardial infarction, and so on appeared one after another, but there was no acute appendicitis.
Zheng Ren felt helpless. He could not pray for more appendicitis patients in Sea City just to save his own life.
Xie Yiren went home first. Before she left, she left her phone number and WeChat account with Zheng Ren, asking him to call her if there was a surgery.
After helping Yuan Li suture a few minor wounds, Zheng Ren cleaned the surgical bag and walked out of the operating theater. The internal medicine doctor on duty pulled Zheng Ren aside with a helpless expression and said, "Chief Zheng, go and have a look."
"Slow down. What's wrong?"
"A 62-year-old female patient with intermittent tinnitus and headaches for 22 years. I performed a cranial CT scan and there were no abnormalities. I thought it was a neurological headache and suggested we go to the neurology department. Then, she started crying in my consulting room. " The female internal medicine doctor was about 40 years old. Zheng Ren could tell from her words that the patient was suffering from hysteria, a symptom that she had imagined.
However, the female doctor did not say it directly.
There was a lot of chaos in the emergency department. Zheng Ren felt helpless and followed the female doctor to the internal medicine consulting room.
A woman with a haggard face sat on the floor. Her clothes looked expensive and the people around her behaved appropriately. They were probably not deliberately causing trouble, but the patient had lost the confidence to live and had a mental breakdown.
Zheng Ren looked at the female patient carefully. The words that appeared on the upper right corner of his vision made him want to cry and laugh.
"Auntie, can you get up first?" Zheng Ren asked politely.
The female patient leaned against the wall and cried silently, her eyes in a trance. A male family member in his 40s beside her said with a guilty expression, "Doctor, I'm sorry. I don't know what happened to my mother. I've taken her to major hospitals in Imperial Capital and Sorcery Capital over the years, but there was no clear diagnosis. "
"Oh, the diagnosis is clear and the treatment is relatively simple. Let's go out and talk." Zheng Ren smiled gently. It was warm and gentle, giving people a sense of trust.
The middle-aged man whispered a few words of advice to the female patient before reluctantly pulling her up from the floor. He helped her to sit on a hard plastic bench outside the emergency room.
This was the busiest time in the emergency department. There were many people lining up inside and outside, waiting for treatment.
The female patient's desperate sobs made some people sad. When they heard that Zheng Ren knew what was going on, some nosy people took out their phones, clicked on a video website, and secretly filmed it.
"Doctor, I'm really sorry. We'll leave after a short rest." The middle-aged man sat on a chair. The female patient should be his mother. At this moment, he was hugging his mother and constantly comforting her.
Although he was also very desperate, he still mustered up the courage to comfort his mother.
"Recently, did Auntie get a tooth planted?" Zheng Ren asked seriously.
"Yes, half a year ago, I planted a tooth for my mother." The middle-aged man did not understand why Zheng Ren asked this question. He did not understand how Zheng Ren knew that his mother had gotten a tooth planted when he did not even know him.
"That's it." Zheng Ren smiled and said, "Recently, after the tooth planting, she had symptoms of dizziness and tinnitus."
The middle-aged man thought about it and was not too sure.
The tooth planting was very successful. No one would associate it with dizziness and tinnitus.
"Could it be the sequelae of the tooth planting?"
"How is that possible? If there was a problem with the tooth planting, she would have gone to the stomatology department. In my opinion, this doctor is talking nonsense. "
"This kind of difficult-to-treat disease can't be treated in Imperial Capital and Sorcery Capital, so how can it be treated in Sea City? You must be joking. "
The onlookers at the side discussed in low voices.
"Let's put it this way. Your mother's mouth should have been inlaid with metal dentures. They are fake teeth, right?" Zheng Ren said confidently.
"…" Was this a doctor or a fortune-teller? The middle-aged man was in a trance. He still could not understand why Zheng Ren always linked his mother's dizziness and tinnitus to the tooth planting.
Could it be that he was a salesperson of some private medical institution, wearing a white coat and pretending to be a doctor in Sea City General Hospital?
At this thought, the middle-aged man was a little angry.
"Two metals with different activity are put in a solution to form a primary battery. This should be a high school curriculum," Zheng Ren said shamelessly. In fact, he had long forgotten what a primary battery was. As for the activity of the metal, it was like a book of heaven.
However, the middle-aged man's expression forced him to make it clear.
