When the Doctor Uses A Hack

Chen Cang was very dissatisfied with the good impression points he’d earned today!

After all, he had only gained a modest satisfaction, adding just 5 good impression points.

What could 33 good impression points do?

Just as Chen Cang was pondering this, Meng Xi turned around and looked at him:

“Come over more in the next two days, you’ll do the pericardial surgery.”

Chen Cang’s eyes immediately lit up, “Me? I… Am I capable?”

Meng Xi’s tone was unflustered as he said in a light and breezy way, “If you’re not up for it, forget it.”

Chen Cang’s expression changed, “I am up for it! I definitely am, I’m sure I am!”

Could Chen Cang say he wasn’t up to it?

He was short by four surgeries, and if it weren’t for this task at hand, Chen Cang would have been ready to spend skill points.

Just bear with it!

Seeing the teasing looks in the eyes of the three people around him, Chen Cang felt uncertain, “I really am capable!”

Meng Xi, upon seeing this, couldn’t help but laugh with a ‘pfft’.

Ge Huai and Director Xia Gaofeng seemed thoughtful as they glanced at Chen Cang with mischievous smiles.

Chen Cang was stunned for a moment, Did I say something wrong?

Thinking this, Chen Cang looked perplexed.

After exiting the operating room, Chen Cang felt the difference that the 30 good impression points made; previously, when he had 20 good impression points, Mentor Meng Xi had been very unsure about him, not to mention performing surgery, even assisting was a stretch, but now that he had reached the 30-point threshold, there seemed to be a slight change, as he was now allowed to do some operable surgeries.

It seemed that good impression points were indeed complicated, and Chen Cang was growing more and more eager to see what new clues could be unlocked as his good impression points with Mentor Meng Xi continued to climb.

…

…

Just after getting off the elevator, Chen Cang suddenly saw Jing Ran walking quickly towards him, and although Chen Cang greeted him, he seemed almost oblivious.

Chen Cang grew curious and called out, “Dr. Jing?”

Only then did Jing Ran turn and give a start, “Dr. Chen? What brings you to Dongda Hospital?”

Chen Cang smiled, “I’m here to pursue my postgraduate studies. My mentor is Meng Xi.”

Jing Ran nodded slightly upon hearing Meng Xi’s name, Is she his mentor?

But looking at Chen Cang, Jing Ran suddenly remembered something, “Dr. Chen, it happens that we have a patient with a peculiar illness in the emergency department. I’m going to check it out, do you want to join?” ℞ἈℕО𝔟ΕṠ

Upon hearing this, Chen Cang was instantly curious about this ‘peculiar patient’ and quickly nodded, “Sure!”

The time was just around one o’clock, still early for starting work, and compared to a disease that had even Jing Ran filled with curiosity, a meal seemed somewhat insignificant.

Hearing Chen Cang agree, Jing Ran’s face lit up with pleasure, feeling reassured inside.

In Jing Ran’s mind, he had always regarded Chen Cang quite highly, thinking Chen Cang was very impressive, the extremely impressive kind, at least on the same level as himself, if not more skilled.

So, with Chen Cang’s affirmation, Jing Ran felt he had some security.

The particularity of the disease meant that you couldn’t possibly master everything!

Together, the two headed for the emergency department.

Upon their arrival, the on-duty doctor hurried over.

“Director Jing, you’ve arrived!” The on-duty doctor, named Yang Lin, was quite young, in his early thirties, but he showed great respect to Jing Ran, addressing him as ‘Director Jing’ every time.

Meanwhile, Jing Ran seemed to have grown accustomed to this title and status, casually nodding, “What’s the matter?”

Yang Lin quickly spoke as they walked, “The patient has been coughing for more than half a month now, with severe coughing for ten days, and over-the-counter cough medicine has had no effect.”

Jing Ran was slightly taken aback; wasn’t this type of cough something that should be seen by an internist? Why come to a thoracic surgery consultation?

With that thought, Jing Ran inquired, “Has the pulmonology department seen them?”

Yang Lin nodded, “She’s come, but after looking at her case, they said it’s not an internal medicine issue, and all physiological and biochemical indicators show that she’s basically normal.”

“However… there seems to be something peculiar in the chest CT.”

At this point, Yang Lin handed over the chest CT films.

After receiving the films, Jing Ran was immediately stunned!

He spotted a shadow on the CT film!

Jing Ran was astonished for a moment. What was this thing?

It didn’t look like a tumor, nor did it resemble bronchial infection, and it certainly wasn’t pneumonia. With severe coughing for half a month and the physiological and biochemical tests mostly normal, could it be… a foreign body obstruction?

Jing Ran instantly became curious. What exactly was blocking it?

Indeed, it was a strange case!

After looking at it, Jing Ran passed the film to Chen Cang, “Dr. Chen, take a look.”

Chen Cang hummed affirmatively, took the film, and quickly noticed a shadow too.

After assessing the location and shape… Chen Cang suddenly felt it looked familiar, strikingly similar to an image in his memory. At this thought, Chen Cang nearly laughed out loud.

Luckily, he wasn’t wearing a white coat, and the others didn’t pay too much attention to Chen Cang, but Jing Ran was frozen in place.

Is it that funny?

Chen Cang cleared his throat, “The problem is in the left bronchus, it’s a foreign body obstruction!”

Chen Cang’s voice was confident, his tone resolute.

After hearing this, Jing Ran was immediately taken aback, “The left bronchus?”

Chen Cang nodded, “Let’s go to the endoscopy room and see what it actually is.”

Jing Ran looked at Yang Lin and said, “It might be a foreign body obstruction in the left bronchus. We should do a bronchoscopy to ascertain what it is.”

After saying this, Jing Ran looked at the patient, a young girl in her twenties lying there, coughing dryly and hoarsely every so often.

The girl finally caught her breath and asked with a tense expression, “Doctor, what’s… what’s wrong with me?”

Jing Ran pondered for a moment before asking, “Was there a trigger for your cough? Or have you put anything into your nose or mouth? Any choking or coughing while eating?”

Bronchial foreign bodies are not uncommon; all these situations can cause them.

After pondering, the girl shook her head, “No, nothing like that. The choking came after the coughing started. There wasn’t anything before that.”

Now that was strange!

Could it not be a foreign body?

Jing Ran looked at Chen Cang with perplexity.

Chen Cang smiled slightly and whispered something into his ear.

Instantly, Jing Ran was flabbergasted!

His eyes widened in disbelief as he looked at Chen Cang.

A group of people took the patient to the endoscopy room to perform an exploratory examination to determine what the object was.

Yang Lin was also curious about what this young man had whispered to Jing Ran.

Which had shocked Director Jing so much.

Soon, with the help of the bronchoscope, the doctors saw the object inside and almost laughed.

This was indeed a peculiar foreign body!

The physician performing the bronchoscopy had many years of experience, having seen all kinds of things, but had never come across such an oddity.

Truly, the world is full of wonders.

Emergency Medicine Doctor Yang Lin also saw the object inside on the screen, looking utterly bewildered.

And Jing Ran was utterly shocked, muttering to himself: Damn, it really is!
