Translate: "He couldn't tell which doctor had been on duty that night, but he greeted everyone anyway, which was certainly fine."

"Here, this is the data of five patients; you can look it up yourself." A doctor pulled up the data, Director Kong said in a low voice.

Su Yun came up behind Zheng Ren, glanced at the medical record on the computer, then lowered her head, as if she had no interest in anything.

"Zheng Ren, I have a question for you." Director Kong saw Zheng Ren begin to look up the medical record, still couldn't help but say earnestly.

"Ah? Please go on." Zheng Ren was a bit dazed.

"Are you really sure it will work?" Director Kong asked.

"Is there any difficulty on your end?" Zheng Ren thought for a moment, then asked in a particularly understanding way: "If there are difficulties, we don't have to do it."
