When the Doctor Uses A Hack

Chapter 508: A Can Grows in the Stomach



After returning home, Chen Cang tidied up his "spoils of war."

One was a Master level JHVI surgery.

Another was a Master level Emergency Medicine Medication Specialization.

One active skill, one passive skill.

Though the night’s surgery was taxing, it was indeed a fruitful endeavor.

However, when Chen Cang opened the mission interface, he realized there was still one task (1) to be completed.

Had he missed something?

Chen Cang felt as excited as if he had found two thousand yuan in the pocket of an old coat as he opened the completed tasks.

The system prompt:

[Ding! As a participant in completing a level 50 high-difficulty instance, reward received: Tracheal Intubation Technique (Master Level).]

Chen Cang then had a moment of realization; it was that patient with a piece of gauze in his chest cavity for ten years; if it stayed any longer, it would have nearly cost him his life.

But this was not the patient’s fault, it was due to medical personnel dereliction of duty, and Chen Cang took it as a warning to himself, as his own negligence could potentially add an unpredictable bomb in a patient’s body, threatening their health at any moment.

Chen Cang didn’t later inquire about what exactly happened with Jing Ran.

Perhaps, with time, as a doctor, he had gradually lost the penchant for gossip.

Upon opening the inventory, there was a purple Skill Book, four simulation stones, and one blank Skill Book.

Chen Cang casually activated the purple Skill Book, and the system prompt sounded:

[Ding! Congratulations, you have acquired the cardiothoracic surgical skill: Anonyma Artery Damage Repair Technique, Master Level!]

Acquiring two skills, Chen Cang couldn’t help but feel delighted.

He had taken several steps closer to becoming an excellent emergency doctor!

But what exactly is JHVI surgery?

Chen Cang couldn’t settle down not knowing, so he quickly switched on his computer to search.

Upon looking it up, Chen Cang realized that he might really have stumbled upon a treasure!

JHVI surgery, also known as Near Hepatic Vein Injury surgery, is amongst the most challenging and dangerous operations in liver trauma surgery, and one of the most difficult issues in hepatic surgery field.

Near hepatic veins include the main hepatic vein and the retrohepatic veins; due to their special anatomical locations and the difficulty in handling them, they are considered extremely challenging surgeries to date!

With this discovery, Chen Cang instantly felt cheerful.

...

...

The next morning, as soon as Chen Cang arrived at the hospital, he was blocked at the entrance by Qin Yue!

"Have you decided?"

Chen Cang was taken aback, decided what?

Did you come this early... just to intercept me?

But looking at Qin Yue’s fierce demeanor, Chen Cang suddenly remembered, "Um! I’ve decided!"

Hearing this, Qin Yue quickly let go, "Give me your phone, I need to check it!"

Chen Cang suddenly felt that the morning was too idle, where were the patients?

Everyone, please come out!

Don’t you all usually want to jump the queue?

Today you don’t have to, can I volunteer to see you all?

Someone drag this woman away...

Chen Cang looked at Qin Yue and gave an awkward smile, "I’m still not sure, so I came early to consult your opinion, to see which one you like?"

Upon hearing this, Qin Yue’s eyes narrowed slightly, "Tell me, let’s hear the options!"

Chen Cang frowned, struggling to beat his brain cells into action, summarizing his experience, reflecting on his shortcomings, and after thoughtful consideration, he felt that small certainly wouldn’t cut it!

After all, using the nickname "Xiaozi" was taboo with Qin Yue!

"Big Yueyue!"

"Scram!"

Chen Cang swallowed hard, "My precious!"

"Hehe!"

"Big..."

When Chen Cang kept racking his brain, a young couple ran in, holding their child!

Upon seeing Qin Yue, the woman grabbed her and said breathlessly, "Doctor... quick! Save the child."

Hearing this, neither Qin Yue nor Chen Cang had the mood for bantering and quickly turned to look at the child.

The man was busy registering for the emergency, while the woman, with a panicked and anxious expression, clutched the child and looked uneasily at Qin Yue, about to speak.

The little boy in her arms spoke up, "Mom, put me down, you’re hurting me!"

The woman was startled and hurriedly put the child down.

Chen Cang looked at the child who was hopping around and was momentarily taken aback.

What’s wrong with this child that he needs saving?

Qin Yue was also curious, "Which child? What happened?"

Only then did the woman say, "It’s him, Benben, come here! Don’t run around."

The little boy was quite naughty. Since entering the emergency room, he was touching this and looking at that... nowhere near looking like someone in need of rescue.

Qin Yue asked, "What’s wrong with the child?"

The woman replied, "He swallowed the button from the Lulu drink can at home into his stomach!"

Upon hearing the woman’s words, both Qin Yue and Chen Cang were taken aback.

The woman went on to explain, "This morning, I was heating up a can of Lulu for the child, and accidentally when opening it, the button fell in. I just poured the Lulu into a cup for him, but after he finished it, he picked up the can again and took a sip, and that’s when he swallowed the button!"

After finishing her explanation, the woman looked frantic, "Doctor, the button is very sharp. It won’t cut open his stomach, will it?"

Qin Yue also frowned slightly upon hearing this; the woman’s concerns were not unfounded.

A child’s esophagus isn’t that wide, and if the esophagus contracts, plus the sharpness of a pop-top can’s button, it can easily cause damage!

Chen Cang straightforwardly suggested, "Let’s go do an endoscopy to see what exactly is going on and see if we can remove it!"

The child’s parents quickly nodded in agreement, "Yes, yes, let’s do an endoscopy to check!"

As they walked, Chen Cang asked, "Has he eaten anything since swallowing it?"

The woman hastily shook her head, "No, as soon as he told me he swallowed something, I got scared and rushed him to emergency."

After hearing this, Chen Cang nodded; that was good news.

In the meantime, they headed toward the endoscopy room. It was now 7:30 am, and Chen Cang decided to go with Qin Yue to the endoscopy room as well.

The duty doctor greeted Chen Cang when he saw him.

"Dr. Chen, what’s the matter?"

Chen Cang replied, "This kid accidentally swallowed the pop-top button while drinking Lulu."

Upon hearing Chen Cang’s words, the man looked at the child with a skeptical expression.

The little boy, seeing the rather fierce endoscopy doctor, couldn’t help but take a few steps back, "I... I didn’t want to swallow it either."

For some reason, this statement made everyone want to laugh.

The parents couldn’t help but give a wry smile, not knowing what to say!

The endoscopy doctor nodded at the little boy, "Mhm, I know. We’ll get it out, otherwise it’ll take root in your stomach, and then you’ll grow a can out of it!"

Upon hearing this, the little boy turned pale with fright.

The endoscopy doctor nodded, "Mhm, so be a good boy, come over here, and don’t wiggle around, I’ll check if it’s started to take root yet!"

The little boy nodded seriously, not daring to move a muscle anymore.
