When the Doctor Uses A Hack
Chapter 1242 - 1245: I Can't Sleep! (Congratulations to book friends Li Boxiao and Li Wen on their marriage!)

The palpation training this time was quite a success!

Not many departments were chosen, without the Breast and Anorectal departments included, which left many students somewhat disappointed.

After all, those were the departments they were most looking forward to.

To stump Professor Chen this time, everyone went to great lengths.

Zhuang Xin acting as a patient was almost relegated to pediatrics.

Some departments even pulled in patients from other departments for Chen Cang to examine.

Of course!

Professor Chen, naturally, was invincible.

Cutting through hurdles, he attracted countless fans.

After the training ended, Li Kai was genuinely satisfied.

Not only was the training effective, but it also revealed many small issues.

These issues, seemingly trivial, could significantly impact and even change someone's life.

A busy day came to an end.

Together with Qin Yue, they attended a dinner organized by Li Kai.

Around eight o'clock or so, both of them left early.

After driving home, they both felt it was still early, and the summer weather was gradually becoming stiflingly hot.

Sitting at home without the air conditioning on, it was truly suffocating.

There was a park downstairs where many people went for walks at night.

Chen Cang took Qin Yue for a leisurely stroll.

Such a carefree existence added a bit more comfort to Chen Cang's life.

...

...

The next day, Sunday, Chen Cang still had to work.

As the hub of the capital's emergency services, the emergency center requires all staff, even at the director level, to take shifts and work nights, which is notably different from other hospitals.

Generally, doctors at the director level don't need to do shifts, and if they do, it's a secondary shift.

But the emergency center is different.

Because the condition of emergency patients is unlike that of inpatients, in the event of an emergency, many times an ordinary doctor simply can't control the situation.

Chen Cang and Old Ma are fated to work together.

Old Ma and Chen Cang are on duty together on Sunday.

Chen Cang has recently not been annoyed with Old Ma, not because he brought breakfast, nor because Old Ma invites him out to eat from time to time, but because of Old Ma...

Alright, I can't make up any more.

Chen Cang was munching on a stuffed pancake filled with bacon, sausage, chicken tenders, and eggs—such a superb breakfast was something Old Ma wouldn't usually indulge in.

Unable to restrain himself, Chen Cang asked, "Team Leader Ma, what's up with you lately? Such luxury? Got stimulated?"

Ma Yuehui took a sip of Telunsu milk: "Ah, who can say otherwise, I've been down lately, but I sold a courtyard house recently and that really cheered me up."

Chen Cang was taken aback and glanced at Old Ma; suddenly the deluxe stuffed pancake in his mouth lost its appeal...

This... a courtyard house!

Sold just like that!

This statement left Chen Cang's mood downcast for the entire morning.

If it weren't for Old Ma having his driver bring over a specially prepared feast from his cook at noon, Chen Cang might have dwelled on it all day.

Good food truly can console a wounded heart.

In the afternoon, Old Ma and Chen Cang rested in the duty room.

However, nurse Yang Jie came hurrying over from the nurses' station.

"Team Leader Ma, Professor Chen, there's been a rear-end collision on Donglin Road. A man crashed into the roadside barrier, he's bleeding a lot and needs rescue."

Hearing Yang Jie's words, Old Ma and Chen Cang immediately rolled out of bed and raced towards the exit.

In a rush, they headed outside.

The ambulance was already prepared.

Yang Jie, carrying the first aid kit, and Old Ma and Chen Cang quickly got on board.

After getting on the ambulance, Chen Cang suddenly asked, "Who called 120?"

Yang Jie was momentarily stunned: "The patient himself!"

A single sentence left both Chen Cang and Ma Yuehui speechless.

"It seems consciousness is still there; no coma..."

The two exchanged glances and could only mutter such a lukewarm statement.

But this was just a wishful thought.

After all, who could guarantee what condition the patient was in?

Hopefully, no issue at all!

The car sped on.

In less than 20 minutes, everyone had arrived at the scene.

By then, the area had already been cordoned off by the fire brigade personnel.

As the car came to a stop, Chen Cang rushed to the scene.

The firefighters breathed a sigh of relief when they saw the 120 emergency center team arrive.

"The patient is in critical condition, the guardrail here has been smashed through, and one end has pierced right into the patient's abdomen!"

Hearing this, Old Ma's brow wrinkled involuntarily.

Chen Cang, however, went straight through the barricade into the midst, and upon reaching the car, he then saw the patient.

It was a middle-aged man about thirty-five or thirty-six years old, with sweat-soaked hair, pale face, in pain leaning back in his seat, gasping loudly for air.

"Comrade, how do you feel?" Chen Cang quickly asked.

The man gestured, "I'll make it... I'll make it!"

At that moment, two firefighters asked, "Doctor, how do we deal with this?"

Chen Cang looked down and immediately saw an approximately three to four centimeter-side hollow iron pipe directly inserted into the man's left ribcage area!

The man's abdomen was covered in blood, which even flowed out of the car through the pipe.

Chen Cang quickly cut open his clothes, and the position of the wound became clear at once.

But it was because he saw clearly that Chen Cang's pupils constricted!

Because the iron pipe had penetrated straight into the liver!

The firefighters looked at Chen Cang, waiting for his suggestion.

At this time, Chen Cang suddenly said, "We can't pull it out, saw it off with a chainsaw, but... give me some thick cloth, Team Leader Ma, hold it with me, it's best not to let the vibration reach the belly!"

The liver is relatively less sturdy compared to other organs.

If the violent vibration of the chainsaw were to occur, it could easily damage the blood vessels of the liver, leading to even more serious consequences.

Upon hearing this, Old Ma nodded hurriedly!

Chen Cang, at this moment, also changed his gloves to the ones for increased strength; he and Old Ma firmly grasped the pipe, and said to the firefighters, "Okay! Begin!"

The scorching summer is indeed very hot!

Under the big sun, everyone was facing tremendous pressure.

No one dared to relax.

But!

Neither Chen Cang nor the firefighters were the ones who had it the toughest.

The most exhausted and in pain was actually the man inside the car.

Yang Jie chatted with him non-stop, "Wang Dong, hang in there, you'll be rescued soon!"

"Wang Dong, hold on!"

The man was in so much pain that his gums started to bleed, but he still gritted his teeth and said, "I'm... alright."

At this moment, due to the massive blood loss, his consciousness had already become somewhat blurred.

Nevertheless, he kept talking to himself as if self-anesthetizing:

"I'm fine, I can't have anything wrong..."

"I cannot fall asleep."

"I still have a wife, my daughter is five years old, she loves the piano, she wants to be a pianist when she grows up..."

"We just bought a house, with a mortgage of 3 million, I can't have anything wrong, I still need to pay the loan!"

"This month I've completed 12 orders, I've earned a bonus of thirteen thousand, and next month is our wedding anniversary, I want to give her a gift..."

"Haha, I can't fall asleep."

"It's like I'm going back to my hometown, back to her side, with her tenderness and kindness..."

To keep from passing out, the man continuously reminded himself, eventually starting to sing!
