Chapter 461: I’m Also a Doctor

"Do police officers also have part-time jobs?"

"Er... yes, sometimes the police will look for some temporary workers to help them catch thieves and the like."

Fearing Miss Zhang would continue to dwell on this issue, Xiao Yi hurriedly said, "Alright, let’s hurry over and see; they’re getting away."

Upon hearing Xiao Yi’s words, An Lili and Miss Zhang next to him immediately forgot the issue of the temporary workers, even dismissing the question of Xiao Yi’s claim to be a doctor, and hurriedly chased after the figures ahead.

Xiao Yi didn’t say much else and just kept up with the two women, catching up to the hospital bed in front.

"Doctor, if I may be so bold, what do you plan to do about this situation now?"

After catching up with the doctor, Xiao Yi finally spoke up, directly asking the anxious-looking doctor next to him.

"Who are you?"

The doctor suddenly looked up, the only pair of eyes showing beneath the mask filled with dissatisfaction, annoyance, and a haughty expression as he stared at Xiao Yi.

"I am also a doctor. I have done a certain amount of research on this woman’s condition, and I hope that I can be involved in her treatment!"

Xiao Yi was clear and direct with his intentions, the look in his eyes revealing a strong confidence as he spoke.

After saying this, he added, "I’m a friend of Miss Zhang here!"

Hearing Xiao Yi’s words, nearly everyone, including the nurses who were pushing the cart towards the operating room ahead, was stunned for a moment, even slowing down their pushing, while the expressions on the faces of An Lili and Miss Zhang were frozen in shock. They had not expected Xiao Yi to say such a thing.

He actually wanted to participate in the rescue work?

He said he had some research on this condition?

How could that be?

Wasn’t he supposed to be a police officer? Even if he was a part-time police officer... if he really had such good medical skills and could save a patient with this condition, would he still be a part-time police officer?

Moreover, how could someone so young possibly save her?

The most shocked was the doctor. Beyond the shock, another emotion was spreading in his heart - discontent, anger!

This kid actually wants to get involved in treating this patient! Although his tone didn’t express a lack of trust in him, by suggesting to join at this moment, he was undoubtedly casting doubt on his medical skills!

Who in this G Province dare speak to him in such a tone? Who had the qualifications to compete with him for patients?

If he, of all people, didn’t have confidence in treating a patient, who else would dare step forward and claim they had the capability?

You should know that he was an authoritative expert in the department of cardiology and neurology and the highest-ranked attending physician in this field at the Provincial People’s Hospital. He was a renowned expert well-known throughout the province, and even the country, who also enjoyed national subsidies as a legitimate medical expert!

Suddenly, the doctor recovered from his shock, fixing a cold gaze on Xiao Yi. Looking at Xiao Yi’s youthful face, a hint of contempt and disdain appeared in his eyes, while his voice carried an air of condescension, "You? Which department are you from? What’s your name? How come I’ve never seen you? If you’re not from our hospital, may I ask where you work and if you have any proof of employment?"

"I’m not a doctor from this hospital, nor from any other hospital, and I don’t have proof of employment, but I am certain that I can treat this patient!"

Having been doubted about his medical skills several times before, Xiao Yi was very calm in the face of such skepticism and did not show any sign of anger.

"Ridiculous, utter nonsense!"

Hearing that Xiao Yi was not a doctor from this hospital or any other and did not have proof of employment, the doctor’s tone became even less polite, his gaze now quite intimidating as he looked at Xiao Yi, "Do you think saving a life is so simple? When it comes to treating and saving patients, we are dealing with human lives; such matters cannot be taken lightly!"

Having said this, he then coldly commanded, "I don’t care who you are; I’m telling you now, leave immediately and don’t interfere with our treatment!"

"This... Doctor Li, this is my friend. He really does have some medical knowledge, but he might be a bit too overconfident, please don’t be angry, I won’t be angry, I will take him away immediately..."

Finally coming to her senses, An Lili saw Doctor Li getting angry and quickly became anxious. While apologizing to Doctor Li, she reached out to pull Xiao Yi’s hand and whispered, "What’s the matter with you, Miss Zhang’s mother’s life is at stake, how can you cause such trouble!"

As she spoke, a hint of reproof was evident on An Lili’s face.

Although she had a good impression of Xiao Yi, his actions just now really made her angry. Raised by her grandfather, the concepts of putting patients first and the priceless nature of life were deeply rooted in her heart.

Miss Zhang, standing beside them, also looked at Xiao Yi with a hint of reproach and said, "Sir, I know you’re a good person, and I thank you, but this isn’t like catching a thief, please don’t make things more complicated."

Upon hearing An Lili and Miss Zhang’s words, Xiao Yi couldn’t help but give a bitter smile. However, he knew that no explanation would suffice at this moment, and the doctor beside him seemed completely unwilling to consider giving him a chance. Without responding to the two women, he stepped aside, took out his phone, and made a call.

"Xiao Yi, what’s up? How come you thought of looking me up today?"

Soon, Doctor Zhang’s hearty voice came through the phone.

"Dr. Zhang, it’s like this, I’m currently at the Provincial People’s Hospital, and I’m on my way to the emergency surgery room for cardio-cerebrovascular cases. A relative of a friend of mine has had an intracerebral hemorrhage leading to a secondary stroke, and the situation is very grave. I expect that the treating doctor will opt for craniotomy, which carries an extremely high risk. But I have a way to treat her, yet I can’t get involved; that doctor won’t let me. You know I don’t have a medical practice license."

The situation was extremely urgent, and upon hearing Doctor Zhang’s hearty voice, Xiao Yi was in no mood for small talk, or even the usual pleasantries, so he went straight to the point, concisely explaining the current circumstance.

"OK, I got it, I’ll be right there. Oh, which doctor is in charge there?"

After listening to Xiao Yi, Doctor Zhang’s expression also grew serious, and the smile completely disappeared from his face as he replied directly.

"I don’t know, seems to be a Doctor Li."

Xiao Yi nodded, glanced at the back of the doctor in front of him, and remembered how An Lili had addressed him.

"OK, just wait for me, I’ll be there immediately."

After speaking, Doctor Zhang hurriedly ended the call.

After hanging up the phone, Xiao Yi finally took a deep breath and looked at the figures of the doctors ahead. He decided that this time, he must buy some time and wait for Doctor Zhang to arrive. Once Doctor Zhang was there, he believed the doctor would probably trust him.

Xiao Yi felt rather confident about Doctor Zhang’s standing in this hospital, having visited a few times already.

"Who did you just call?"

An Lili looked at Xiao Yi somewhat surprised. When she confronted him, Xiao Yi didn’t reply to a single word and instead made a phone call on his own. Her curiosity was now piqued, wanting to know what he was up to.

To her utter astonishment, she heard him apparently speaking with a doctor and, from his tone, it seemed as though he genuinely had a solution for Miss Zhang’s mother’s illness.

Miss Zhang herself was also taken aback.

If before she thought Xiao Yi was causing trouble, now, as she observed the solemn and serious expression on his face during the phone call, her beliefs were thoroughly shaken.

A thought began to emerge in her mind, could it be he truly had the ability to save her, and wasn’t just joking?

"I called a doctor from this hospital."

Xiao Yi didn’t hide the truth, "Cardiothoracic Dr. Zhang, he’s a good friend of mine."

After speaking, he disregarded the shock and disbelief on An Lili’s face and turned to Miss Zhang. His expression was grave as he said, "Miss Zhang, it’s fate that we met on the way here earlier, and I believe you know that I’m not a bad person. I wouldn’t joke about your mother’s life, or anyone’s for that matter. I am truly a doctor, a practitioner of Chinese medicine, and I indeed have a way to cure your mother’s illness."

"From what you’ve described, your mother’s condition is very critical. Based on my knowledge of Western medicine, their only course of action at present would be to perform a craniotomy, which is extremely dangerous, with a mortality rate as high as over ninety percent! I hope you can trust me, and let me treat your mother!"

"This... "

Miss Zhang was completely flustered by the earnestness on Xiao Yi’s face, and to be honest, looking at his sincere expression and earnest tone, she was nearly persuaded to agree, but... this was too important, it concerned her mother’s life, after all, every person only has one chance at life!
