At noon, Zhang Anmin once again felt full of energy after eating the remaining steamed buns and leftover dishes from home, as well as drinking the milk, which he bought with his pocket money..

He drank a cup of coffee he made for himself. He added four cups of milk, poured them in a thermos pot and secretly added two red dates to drink while walking downstairs.

Zhang Anmin did not want to be a doctor who persuaded people to live a healthy life every day, yet stayed up late himself. Neither did he want to be a doctor who scoffed at a patient being fat but could not control his own weight.

He still had a twenty-seven years mortgage to pay for his house in his hometown, so he had to exercise well.

“Honk.

“Honk, honk.”

The big white goose’s cry traveled from the fountain.

The corner of Zhang Anmin’s mouth curled up and showed a smile. As he turned his foot around, he walked toward the direction of the fountain.

The big white goose was always the most popular, especially to children who had never been to the countryside. A big white goose was just as rare as a T-rex.

If it were not for the big white goose’s aggressiveness, it would have all its feathers plucked a long time ago.

“You may touch it, but you cannot pluck its feathers.” Zuo Cidian was next to the fountain maintaining order, but what he had said was a bit weird.

Zhang Anmin hurried over and squeezed through the crowd. He then saw Fragrance Yard, whose infamy was second only to Huo Congjun. At this time, it was squatting at the edge of the fountain pool while Ling Ran seized its neck and touched its wings.

Since Ling Ran was touching it, several children went up and touched it as well. Several adults took pictures with gusto, and some even uploaded it on their Weibos.

Only Yu Yuan stared at the big white goose with an anxious gaze. She looked as if she was ready to operate on the goose at any moment.

“Honk.”

The big white goose was slightly hurt by a brat. It cried out in aggrievance and looked up to look at Yu Yuan. She could only show an understanding look before she forced herself to look elsewhere.

Zhang Anmin looked strangely at the big white goose who was acting weirdly. He asked curiously, “What’s happening?”

“We’re checking to see whether the goose is clean.” A young nurse next to him looked at Ling Ran and said, “It is to protect the hospital from infections.”

“Oh, I see.” Zhang Anmin nodded in understanding.

Hospitals were increasingly aware of infections. Of course, the Department of Infection Control’s main enemy was high-end bacteria cultivated in hospitals, such as methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, which were like the Hulk within the bacteria species. They could only be discovered after the antibiotics filtered out all the other bacteria. Once an infection of such a degree occurred, a normal antibiotic will truly do nothing to them.

Compared with the superbug that hospitals cultivate, the bacteria in an ordinary, small clinic or the bacteria on the white goose were like a prick of a needle. Only doctors like Ling Ran would check on all of them, regardless of whether they were major or small matters.

Ling Ran repeatedly played with the big white goose over and over again before he had Yu Yuan send the samples to the Medical Laboratory Department. It was only then that he threw the goose back into the fountain.

The big white goose flew to the other side of the pool and hid. It then looked at Ling Ran with indignation. The dignity and dominance it had built up over the past few days were completely destroyed in just a day. It cannot help but be mad.

Zhang Anmin moved forward and wanted to say hello to Ling Ran.

At this moment, Ling Ran had already seen Zhang Anmin first.

“Doctor Zhang.” Ling Ran raised his head in a very socially-acceptable manner.

Ling Ran still frequently used the primary etiquette like saying hello. Before this, when he was in school or in Lower Groove Clinic, he had to meet too many people every day. He would also encounter unexpected people often, such as his elementary school classmates, who had already gone to London to study after not meeting for ten years. Then, for some inexplicable reason, they flew back to Yun Hua deliberately to drink milk tea with Ling Ran. Ling Ran had encountered such situations around a dozen times. After all, he had many classmates.

Zhang Anmin was flattered. In his impression, Ling Ran was not a person who will take proactive steps in establishing social contact.

“Why are you not in the operating theater?” Ling Ran walked toward Zhang Anmin.

“Honk, honk.”

The big white goose was free from restraints. It flapped its wing a little, used its small eyes to glance at the people around it like it wanted to choose a prey to attack with its beak.

A group of children fled like little beasts that were intimidated.

Zhang Anmin looked at the big white goose, laughed, and said, “I happen to have some free time. So I decided to take a break at noon, and I came out to see the goose.”

“Oh,” Ling Ran replied. He said, “Then let’s go to the operating theater together. I’ll arrange for the surgery to be done a little earlier.”

“Hmm? Is it a hepatectomy?” Zhang Anmin did not expect happiness to come so fast. Was it not necessary for them to do some preceding procedures? Was there not a requirement to read a few reports at night, or buy some equipment or something?

Ling Ran only nodded and said, “Hepatectomy for hepatolithiasis.”

After doing several cases of liver cancer surgeries, Ling Ran had momentarily suspended performing such surgeries.

As far as modern surgical technology was concerned, cancer was the type of illness that currently existed at the borders of what surgery could treat at the moment. There were some succeeded in treating, and some who failed, but in most cases, the doctors did not even know whether they succeeded or failed.

Ling Ran did not like this kind of uncertainty. He decisively pulled away, so much so that the people around him did not realize it.

Zhang Anmin would not think so much into this.

He was already excited when he heard that he could perform hepatectomy.

After drinking half of the coffee in his hand, Zhang Anmin felt more energetic than drinking four bottles of Red Bull. He nodded and said, “I am also familiar with hepatolithiasis. I previously dissected one…”

“Tell me while we walk.” Ling Ran seemed to be rushing for time. He ordered Yu Yuan, “Make a call to the operating theater.”

“Okay, you go ahead first, I will come later,” Yu Yuan said as she walked toward the big white goose.

Zhang Anmin looked at Yu Yuan, who was four feet nine inches tall and walked toward the big white goose with the neck that was fifteen inches. He could not help but smile and thought, ‘It’s pretty easy to talk to the people in Ling Ran’s group, and they sure do things in a smooth and clean manner…’

“Honk!”

Yu Yuan’s hand was seen rising into the air. Then, she inserted the thermometer in her hand into the big white goose’s an*s.

Zhang Anmin could not help but squeezed his buttcheeks together.

“Be still, we’re measuring your body temperature.” Yu Yuan took the opportunity to touch the goose. She smiled beautifully and reached out to tickle the goose’s face, “Come, give me a smile.”

Fragrance Yard showed an innocent face.

“The elevator is here.” Ling Ran reminded him.

“Oh, right.” Zhang Anmin came running in. He turned around meekly and stood at the front of the elevator.

“You were saying that you were very familiar with hepatolithiasis?” Ling Ran asked Zhang Anmin as he stood behind him. His face was reflected in the shiny elevator door, and it made it seem as if he was glowing.

“Yes, yes… I have been a first assistant before, and also as a second assistant. Also…” Zhang Anmin eagerly recited his resume.

“That’s good. Go and find out the patient’s information. Screen them all to see if we had missed out on some conditions that we didn’t consider. You can also use it to be familiar with the preoperative situation.” Ling Ran smoothly delegated his task in a very casual manner.

Zhang Anmin quickly accepted the task.

“Do you know how to read a CT Scan? How about reading an MRI Scan?” Ling Ran asked.

“I know a little.” Zhang Anmin did not dare to say much. He knew that Ling Ran was quite capable of reading scans, but he did not know how capable he was.

“Then please read the CT and MRI scans again. After that, please brief Lu Wenbin and Yu Yuan.” Ling Ran continued to assign tasks. There had always only been resident doctors who were assigned to him. Clearly, they were not as useful as Zhang Anmin, who was a young attending physician.

Zhang Anmin continued to nod.

“Take a look at the patient as well. Then try to get to know their family members. Check the medication before the operation …” Ling Ran gave a bunch of orders in one go, and Zhang Anmin felt a little dizzy from listening to all of it.

“Then, I’ll go check on them now. When’s the operation time?”

“After forty-five minutes.”

“Forty-five… In this case, we would not make it in time.”

“How long do you need?” Ling Ran asked.

Zhang Anmin hesitated and whispered, “Four hours?”

“We’d be performing the third operation after four hours. Increase your efficiency.” As he spoke, the elevator door opened, and Ling Ran left with his head held high.

“Doctor Ling.”

“Doctor Ling!”

Everyone greeted Ling Ran amiably and politely in the hallway.

Zhang Anmin followed closely. He felt that the oxygen in the air seemed to have been sucked away.
