Famous Among Top Surgeons in the 90s

Chapter 1103: After listening, everyone had a clear understanding.

Zhu Huicang and the others caught a fleeting moment of discomfiture on his face, which took them by surprise: How come? Could it be that before Xie Wanying mentioned it, he hadn’t realized specifically what he was worried about?

Fu Xinheng turned back, feeling as though a corner of the iceberg within his heart had broken off.

Bear in mind, Teacher Lu did not have the typical symptoms of lung cancer. His feeling about this was vague, it was hard to say whether it was an illusion or not.

It was only after Xie Wanying’s mention tonight that he looked back on Teacher Lu’s unusual behaviors along the way, which coincidentally matched the facts she pointed out. For example, at the beginning, in the emergency department, Teacher Lu paid close attention to their thoracic surgery, seemingly concerned about Li Xiaobing, but there was something off about his gaze. Then, on the day of the surgery on bed 20 in the Hepatobiliary Surgery Department, Teacher Lu specifically inquired about the state of their thoracic surgery.

If Teacher Lu only had liver cancer, why would he care about the techniques of the thoracic surgeons?

As doctors, they have intuitions, but lacking evidence, it always felt as if the chain of evidence was missing that most crucial puzzle piece. When Xie Wanying mentioned the duodenum, he suddenly had an epiphany: That’s right!

Thinking of this, Fu Xinheng’s eyes narrowed slightly.

Zhu Huicang saw that he stopped talking and seemed to have no intention of explaining to him, then glanced at the others whose silent faces, unlike his, didn’t press Fu Xinheng for further questions: It was odd, could it be that these people, like Fu Xinheng, had a hunch? All that was missing was the final push, so they came to Xie Wanying seeking information just like Fu Xinheng.

After all, Xie Wanying was an eye-witness to Teacher Lu’s attack that day. Moreover, the medical records would be sent over tomorrow, first to be seen by the Hepatobiliary Surgery Department, so Tao Zhijie and the others from that department were not in a rush. Those from other departments needed to know if Teacher Lu’s illness was related to their specialty to avoid being suddenly called in for intervention and caught off guard.

It was like that with Teacher Zhang’s illness four years ago. Everyone thought it was just simple primary liver cancer, but then it was discovered that it might have been secondary liver cancer. The entire hospital departments were called in and everything turned into a mess.

What about Cao Yong?

Zhu Huicang suddenly remembered his old classmate. How could his old classmate Cao Yong be absent on such a critical occasion? Was he unwilling to join the bustle with these people?

This Cao Yong, could it be that this time he wasn’t worried about her being surrounded and bullied?

Zhu Huicang adjusted his glasses.

Speak of Cao Yong, and Cao Yong would arrive.

Knock knock, two knocks on the door.

Tan Kelin, who was closest to the door, casually opened the office door.

Huang Zhilei, standing at the door, greeted all the teachers present: "Dr. Cao knows that everyone’s been working hard and has ordered supper for everyone. Teachers, please go to the office to eat first, so the food doesn’t get cold and taste bad."

The group looked at Huang Zhilei, who was speaking for Cao Yong, and thought to themselves: When it comes to unexpectedly striking, Cao Yong must be like the one who suddenly sinks a three-pointer at the buzzer.

Not going to eat? That would be an insult to their colleague’s face. Plus, Cao Yong hadn’t prohibited them from talking. But he chose this exact moment to call them for supper. Perhaps he guessed that if they continued, emotions might run high.

That’s how medical discussions go, they must stop at the proper point; otherwise, if some problems can’t be resolved under current circumstances, arguing further might lead to loss of control.

"Let’s go, let’s go eat," Gao Zhaocheng raised his hand, signaling everyone to leave and not to continue the discussion for now.

Xie Wanying had almost finished speaking, everything that needed to be said should have been said, and those who needed to know should now be aware.
