Chapter 1834: line with translation of chapter title

Zheng Ren has been busy all along, but today I don't know where he went.

According to the plan, today's TIPS Surgery has been completed; he should have performed two liver cancer Interventional embolization treatments. Cooperation with the Gan Dan Wai Ke has gradually begun to run smoothly.

Every day is almost the same, as if carved out of a mold, yet Zheng Ren never tires of it.

Performing surgery, reading a bit, when free going to the Emergency Department to find Zhou Litao, after work returning home to lounge on the sofa watching TV with Xiao Yi Ren, holding her hand standing on the big balcony to view the scenery, everything is silent and wonderful.

This is the life Zheng Ren wants.

But today he has something to do; Zheng Ren did not go to the Observation Platform.

At 10:23 a. m., today's five TIPS Surgeries ended.

Liu Zewei looked at the empty seats outside, feeling a bit uneasy in his heart.

That seat had always been occupied by someone, although they didn't perform surgery. But occasionally they would turn on the walkie-talkie, correcting themselves or Professor Rudolf Wagner's mistakes, and this had become a habit.

But today, he is not there.

"Yi Ren, hasn't Zheng Lao Ban come back yet?" Liu Zewei asked.

Xie Yiren nodded, began to tidy up medical waste, and didn't say much more.

Liu Zewei knew this must be some task that needed to be carried out; otherwise, everyone wouldn't be so tight-lipped.

Carrying out the task, it only looks wonderful on the surface; Liu Zewei felt it was very far from himself.

Thinking back to when Zheng Lao Ban went to Nanyang earlier, and upon his return all sorts of gossip spread, even Liu Zewei, an old man with a balding head, couldn't help feeling his blood boil.

Youth is truly great, especially someone like Zheng Lao Ban.

Silently lifting the patient onto the stretcher, just as they were about to leave, two people strode in.

"Zheng Lao Ban!" Liu Zewei felt much steadier in his heart; that figure was like a mountain, standing firm not far away, as if it would never fall.

"Hmm, in the past few days something could happen at any time. When I'm not home, you and Fugui'er must be careful when performing surgery." Zheng Ren sat directly at the operating table, first reviewing today's surgical procedure, "I've reported to Director Kong; if the surgery is difficult, I'd rather not do it and wait for me to return. In short, don't push yourself; you have Director Kong and Director Lin."

"Okay." Liu Zewei knew this was the rhythm of Zheng Lao Ban recently going out on a mission.

As for the mission, even if I asked, I wouldn't know the result; instead I'd just get scolded.

"Any other instructions? Zheng Lao Ban?" Liu Zewei asked.

"Nothing else. Actually, you and Fugui'er's skill level is already sufficient; just be careful, don't just chase speed—what's more important is stability."

"Boss, you talk too much." Su Yun said disdainfully: "With this level, if you pulled them out they'd do better than the Mayo Clinic's TIPS Surgery; I really don't know what you're worrying about."

"Patient matters are life-or-death, always a big deal; no amount of caution is excessive." Zheng Ren watched the first surgery's procedure, saying slowly.

【They say write quickly...】

Zheng Ren casually picked up his phone, glanced at it, saw it was Zhou Litao calling, and answered.

"Zheng Lao Ban, busy?"

"Busy, speak." Zheng Ren looked at the surgical procedure and said bluntly.

"Um..."

"Manager Zhou, just say what's up, no need to be so polite." Zheng Ren said.

"There are over a dozen patients; preliminarily diagnosed as stomach flu, but I always feel something's off. During ward rounds, Cui Lao also feels something's wrong, but there's no specific diagnosis yet; they're still completing examinations."

"Oh, first explain the situation; I'll come over after I finish watching the surgery here." Zheng Ren said.

On the other end of the phone, Zhou Litao seemed to relax.

"It's like this..." Zhou Litao began to describe the condition.

Starting two days ago, patients of various ages have been coming to the EmergencyDepartment one after another. Symptoms are typical: bloating, abdominal pain, vomiting, diarrhea, multiple bowel movements a day, feeling weak.

Typical stomach flu symptoms; diarrhea isn't severe. After observation in the emergency room, only one person showed a slight ion imbalance.

With normal treatment, it should gradually improve.

But two days have passed, and the patients not only show no signs of improvement, their condition has gradually worsened.

Moreover, this isn't the most important; the number of patients coming to the EmergencyDepartment with similar symptoms keeps increasing, now totaling 17.

Among them, 8 are male, 9 female, ages ranging from 13 to 80.

This is somewhat strange; Zhou Litao keenly sensed there was a problem, but after thinking overnight, he still couldn't figure out exactly where the issue lay.

He worried something was up, so early in the morning he reported the medical history to a senior doctor. He initiated an internal department consultation; Cui Lao also rushed over from home to join the consultation and give his opinion.

But in the end there was no diagnosis everyone agreed on; they could only first run various tests to rule things out.

"How are the lab results?" Zheng Ren asked after Zhou Litao finished describing the medical history.

"White blood cells are basically near normal, no anemia, neutrophil segmentation slightly high, eosinophils slightly high." Zhou Litao said: "Liver and kidney function normal; chest X-ray and lung CT show no pneumonia signs. Two elderly patients have arrhythmia, but it's not serious."

"Alright, I'll be there in 10 minutes." Zheng Ren said.

After hanging up, Su Yun lounged in the back and said: "Boss, is Manager Zhou being too cautious?"

"Being cautious is good." Zheng Ren chuckled and said: "Even if it later turns out to be a false alarm, jumpy at every shadow, it's still better than missing a diagnosis or misdiagnosis."

"Emergency is just like that." Su Yun said, "Could it be a new flu virus?"

"Hmm..." Zheng Ren didn't answer, and set the surgery playback to 8x speed.

Professor Rudolf Wagner's and Liu Zewei's surgeries were done very well; Zheng Ren could see there were some minor issues, but none were serious.

This involves individual surgical habits; it's not something you can correct just because you want to. Sometimes correcting it makes the procedure feel awkward at that point, which is actually worse than not correcting.

"Let's go." Zheng Ren said after finishing watching the surgery and standing up.

"Flu, truly loveless." Su Yun said that, but his body honestly stood up.

"Yi Ren, I'm going to the Emergency Department." Zheng Ren greeted Xie Yiren, "Let's have dinner together this evening; you and Chang Yue discuss what to eat."

"Go, go, I'm busy." Xie Yiren said.

Zheng Ren turned and walked out of the operating room.

"Boss, have you noticed any change in Xiao Yi Ren's attitude toward you?" Su Yun asked with a smile.

"No." Zheng Ren casually answered while pondering the flu patients in the Emergency Department.

"Life, after a long time, what will it become?" Su Yun asked.

"Firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, tea."

"No." Su Yun shook his/her head, "It's firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, sauce, vinegar, sauce, vinegar, sauce, vinegar, sauce, vinegar, sauce, vinegar, sauce, vinegar, sauce, vinegar, tea."

…… Zheng Ren glanced at Su Yun, this guy is about to go on a mission, a bit Tension? This mission indeed has some problems, but it's not to the point of making fun of oneself, right? Being jealous? Xiao Yi Ren probably wouldn't.

"And you?" Zheng Ren asked.
