Chapter 539: 530 Reading books is still useful
530 Reading books is still useful.
The patients and their families left, delighted and surprised, but Doctor Zhou had no intention of leaving.
After the emergency department quieted down, Doctor Zhou said somewhat embarrassedly, "Chief Zheng, your diagnostic level is truly high!"
Zheng Ren smiled, not being polite.
This time, Zheng Ren gave a diagnosis without seeing the patient, with an eighty percent accuracy rate. When he later saw the patient, the disease indicated by the system panel matched his diagnosis, making him more confident.
Following the picture to find the horse is the simplest method.
Doing an ultrasound is merely the final confirmation, producing clinical evidence to convince the patient and others.
Zheng Ren was still quite satisfied with this outcome.
"The boss is definitely the most capable, need we say?" Professor Rudolf Wagner remarked on the side.
Zheng Ren found it strange; the professor had long wanted to learn prostate interventional embolization, a desire he could sense, but he had never before flattered so resolutely.
"Chief Zheng, may I borrow your diagnostic books?" Doctor Zhou asked.
Only then did Zheng Ren understand why Doctor Zhou had stayed behind.
"Brother Zhou, there are no books." Zheng Ren said: "Just read more journals and think things over when you encounter situations, and that's enough."
Doctor Zhou felt a bit regretful, but knowing Zheng Ren spoke the truth, they chatted a few more words before saying goodbye and leaving.
"Fugui'er, I feel like you've become a different person lately," Zheng Ren asked the professor.
"Really? Maybe I've grown fond of this backwater and don't want to leave," the professor feigned ignorance.
"Fugui'er, the boss is just pretending to be stupid, not truly stupid. You don't want the boss to be an idiot, do you?" Su Yun said on the side, giving no face to the professor… nor to Zheng Ren, speaking bluntly.
The professor laughed embarrassedly; beneath his golden long hair, the wrinkles on his face seemed to relax a bit.
"Boss, I've recalled the surgery process and feel my chance of success isn't high," Professor Rudolf Wagner revealed the truth. "I'll go back and try; if it fails, having Mei Ha'er undergo surgery will probably still trouble you to make a trip. Though it's far away, …"
Zheng Ren nodded and said, "We'll stay in touch by phone then."
Professor Rudolf Wagner hadn't expected Zheng Ren to agree so quickly; all the excuses he'd prepared fell flat.
"Fugui'er, the boss has this temper—stop the nonsense, hurry up and pack to return to Heidelberg." Su Yun said: "Besides, if you invite the boss to Heidelberg, remember to book a ticket for me too. And… boss, should we bring Yi Ren along?"
Zheng Ren glared at him.
"What are you looking at!" Su Yun said confidently. "When going out, most men don't want to bring their wives on business trips. But I don't know what you think—asking isn't wrong, is it?"
Zheng Ren was defeated by him.
Hearing Su Yun say the word "wife," Zheng Ren felt joy, sweetness, and a hint of shyness.
In the midst of the embarrassment, a WeChat notification sounded on his phone.
Zheng Ren quickly picked up his phone and saw it was Director Kong.
For tomorrow morning's flight, Director Kong had already booked the ticket.
Zheng Ren contacted Feng Xu Hui; the next morning he would drive to pick up Director Kong.
After finishing these tasks, Su Yun suggested going for a meal, but Zheng Ren declined the invitation.
For Zheng Ren, eating is irrelevant as long as he's not hungry—except when dining with Xie Yiren, which is an exception.
Everyone had left; Zheng Ren made a round of the wards. Ji Feier was fine after surgery, chatting and laughing with her boyfriend.
Seeing Zheng Ren arrive, the boyfriend warmly struck up a conversation with him.
His name is Li Sheng, a southerner. He had been friends with Ji Feier since college, and still is. Thinking that the two were about to enter the hall of marriage, Zheng Ren felt a slight envy.
The family expressed their gratitude to Zheng Ren; he smiled and then forgot about it.
Thanks or not, it means nothing to Zheng Ren. Better to forget each other like rivers and seas than to cling together.
Everyone being well is better than anything.
Returning to the office, Zheng Ren found a sunny spot, held 《Surgery》 in his arms, and began entering the system space to read various documents.
Today's cases are rare and uncommon, especially prone to misdiagnosis.
Zheng Ren himself, having read many books lately, didn't instantly realize what the disease was, but ultimately diagnosed it correctly.
This gave Zheng Ren strong motivation.
Studying hard is still useful. Increasing skill points is one way; gaining more exposure to rare diseases is another. If one day the system—this big pig trotter—crashes, I won't be knocked from the peak and fall too hard.
For Zheng Ren, reading and studying are a pleasure.
In the winter sunshine, Zheng Ren within the system space could also feel warmth.
After an unknown amount of time, Zheng Ren heard a knock at the door and exited the system space.
An elderly person stood at the doorway, bent at the waist, face full of wrinkles like mountains.
"Elder sir, whom are you looking for?" Zheng Ren quickly rose and asked.
"Young man, I'm looking for Doctor Chief Zheng," the old man said.
Zheng Ren's mind turned in half a second; he immediately realized it was likely an emergency department doctor sending him to find Chief Zheng, whom he took to be a name.
These are just small misunderstandings, not a problem.
In the upper right of the visual field, the system panel marked the old man's condition—acute cholecystitis.
The illness is also minor, not serious.
Zheng Ren brought the elderly person to the treatment room for a physical exam.
While examining, Zheng Ren asked, "Elder sir, where are your family members?"
"None, just me alone." The old man's complexion looked a little poor, and his wrinkles instantly deepened.
Zheng Ren said nothing, finished the exam, looked at the report the old man held, cross-referenced it with the big pig trotter's diagnosis, and confirmed acute cholecystitis.
Right upper quadrant tenderness was obvious, accompanied by rebound pain, with no muscular tension.
It can be treated surgically.
But he had no family, which made things somewhat difficult.
Need to remove the gallbladder; postoperative patients need someone to accompany them. But now this situation……
However, since there is illness and still requires surgical treatment, let's admit him first and talk later.
Zheng Ren couldn't bear to let a sick old man run around, arranged the old man into a ward, and after inquiring about the relevant situation prepared to give him an admission slip.
When Zheng Ren asked if he had money, the old man took out a bundle from his trousers, blue floral cloth, already faded white.
He held the blue bundle, saying: "Chief Zheng, I have money, I must have the surgery."
Zheng Ren laughed and cried, seeing the old man like this, it seemed as if he himself were a robber.
However Zheng Ren also didn't mind, others being on guard against him, speaking frankly it's nothing.
Those who believe just seeing a stranger's smiling face are the ones who can't survive in society.
Zheng Ren said: "Old man, in a moment I'll give you an admission slip, let me help you pay the money?"
The old man suddenly became wary, looking at Zheng Ren, the hand holding the blue cloth bundle showed protruding veins.
