Chapter 881 Elevation of Skill
After Ling Ran was done carrying out debridement and suturing on a patient, he went back to his seat to rest.
The reporter dragged the cameraman along as he walked toward Ling Ran. They started talking about everything and nothing at the same time.
Of course, he was the sole person talking, Ling Ran did not even bother talking.
Zuo Cidian noticed that it was almost time, so he walked over to interrupt them. He promised the reporter that he would give him some information, and the latter finally left reluctantly.
Chief Physician Li was envious and sad at the same time when he saw their interaction.
He no longer had the chance to become the department director of the General Surgery Department of Yun Hua Provincial Hospital. Hence, he had given up and gotten involved in public health instead. However, it was impossible for him not to start fantasizing about things when he saw a reporter.
While it was already impossible for him to become the department director of the General Surgery Department, Chief Physician Li did not mind becoming the department director of a newly established Department of Public Health.
After working in the field for many years, different doctors might have different aims in life. But their work aspirations would be almost the same. Was there any doctor who did not dream of becoming a department director?
Even though most doctors would not get this opportunity until the end of their careers, a chief physician like Chief Physician Li was only one step away from becoming a department director.
It was a shame that he did not really have anyone backing him up.
Chief Physician Li watched as the reporter left the emergency room, and he could do nothing but let out a soft sigh.
The media could have done a good job of backing him up. However, the reporter did not seem interested in him, and even if the reporter were to force himself to write an article about him, it would be meaningless.
“I’ll be taking my leave, then.” Chief Physician Li did not feel like staying in the emergency room and watching a young doctor like Ling Ran work.
“Let’s head out together,” Associate Chief Physician Deng said with a smile. He was also a little emotional. However, as the young and capable leader of a treatment group, he still had a bright future ahead of him. Hence, he was not as despondent as chief physician Li.
Lu Wenbin, who was standing beside Ling Ran and flexing his muscles, sighed softly too. He relaxed his muscles, and he looked like a buff doctor.
“Doctor Ling, there’re no more patients in the waiting room. Do you want to take a short rest?” Zuo Cidian handed Ling Ran a bottle of mineral water and whispered.
Ling Ran was a little surprised. “I’ve only treated one patient, and we’ve now run out of patients?”
“Yeah, there are no more patients. There was a patient with a stomach ache just now, and he was already treated.” Zuo Cidian flashed a wan smile. Doctors like Ling Ran who began their career in a tertiary Grade A hospital might find this situation, where there were more doctors compared to patients, weird. However, this was basically what Zuo Cidian encountered every day during the first half of his career.
Ling Ran dejectedly whipped out his phone. He thought about it for a moment and decided to open the Ling Treatment Group’s WeChat group. He asked everyone a question. [What should be done during the preoperative period for patients with chronic Achilles tendon rupture?]
The doctors in the Ling Treatment Group could choose to give a long or short answer, and this was just the right question to ask them under the current circumstances.
Ling Ran was very satisfied with the question he came up with. He felt more at ease as he continued to play with his phone.
He played a game, and as expected, he lost. Ling Ran did not immediately start another game. Instead, he started pondering about things.
He was thinking about his “Perfect Surgery” mission.
It was relatively difficult to achieve perfection when it came to major surgeries like hepatectomy, and it was naturally easier to do so with minor surgeries. However, since the reward for the mission was only a Basic Treasure Chest, Ling Ran was not willing to spend too much energy on the mission.
It was not like he was looking down on Basic Treasure Chests, but lately, Basic Treasure Chests rarely gave him anything great.
When Ling Ran thought of this, he waved, and 37 basic treasure chests immediately appeared before him.
He had managed to perform 37 perfect surgeries, but he had opened none of the Basic Treasure Chests he received.
On one hand, it was because Ling Ran had way too many bottles of Energy Serum in his inventory. On the other hand, he would like to accumulate more Basic Treasure Chests in case he needed them at a later date.
But after receiving a notification regarding the mission right now, Ling Ran had the urge to open his Basic Treasure Chests.
There was no need to hesitate before opening Basic Treasure Chests, anyway, and 37 happened to be a prime number. Ling Ran waved and opened all the Basic Treasure Chests.
An array of… Energy Serums appeared before him. There was no surprise at all in that.
“Give me 37 more Basic Treasure Chests,” Ling Ran muttered internally, and 37 shiny Basic Treasure Chests appeared before him.
They opened to reveal another batch of Energy Serums.
“Thirty-seven more,” Ling Ran requested again.
The system gave him 37 more Basic Treasure Chests.
He repeated the same process four times before a skill book showed up.
It was a Single Skill Book, and he obtained a skill branch—Gastrointestinal Perforation Repair (Master Level).
“The probability of obtaining a skill book is a little low.” Ling Ran raised his chin. He was not very satisfied, and he did not plan to open more Basic Treasure Chests.
Ling Ran did not possess any skills related to the intestine right now, and Gastrointestinal Perforation Repair changed that. However, Ling Ran had no intention of carrying out intestinal surgery. This skill would most probably be a backup, and Ling Ran reckoned that he would never put it to use.
After opening four batches of Basic Treasure Chests, Ling Ran was left with fewer than 1,000 Basic Treasure Chests. He now had a total of 962 Basic Treasure Chests, and most of them Sincere Gratitude Basic Treasure Chests. Only a small part of them was from missions, and the number of Peers’ Admiration Basic Treasure Chests was about the same.
Ling Ran did the math, and he felt that he should save some Basic Treasure Chests for later. It was not easy to collect 1,000 Basic Treasure Chests.
“Where’s Yu Yuan?” Ling Ran looked around and realized that everyone was already getting started with the paperwork. Hence, he prepared to do some paperwork too.
Yu Yuan craned her head out from behind a corner.
“Let’s write a research paper.” Ling Ran squeezed some alcohol-based hand sanitizer onto his hand. He rubbed his hands and switched on his laptop.
Yu Yuan hummed in acknowledgment and asked, “What kind of research paper would you like to write?”
“Since we’ve been carrying out hepatectomy lately, I have some ideas,” Ling Ran said as he thought about it.
Yu Yuan immediately switched on her laptop and said, “We do have quite a number of hepatectomy cases.”
“I think that the classification regarding ways to deal with hepatectomy done using a laparoscope, via a small incision, or via a big incision can be further fine-tuned,” Ling Ran described his thoughts.
Ren Qi, who came from a county hospital, was sitting beside them right now. He was writing medical records with his laptop propped up on his belly, which was of above-average size. He was in a little bit of a daze.
‘Are you guys intending to write a research paper because you’re bored?
‘Do you guys get any kind of cases you guys want?
‘Aren’t you boasting a little too much right now?
‘When will my life be this great?’
Ren Qi was listening closely to their conversation. Ling Ran suddenly changed the topic and talked about a new idea.
“We can write a standalone research paper about hepatectomy done via small incisions.
“Since the current trend is still to carry out hepatectomy using a laparoscope and via large incisions, we should have accumulated quite a number of cases lately.”
Ling Ran described his thought process as he spoke, and he made some notes on his laptop.
After carrying out surgeries for so many consecutive days, there were a lot of ideas in Ling Ran’s mind.
These ideas were different before Ling Ran mentally sorted them out and put them to paper. However, once he decided to materialize these ideas into words, he had to put in another round of hard work and think long and hard.
“Elevation of skill. Perfect Level hepatectomy is achieved.” At some point in time, the system’s voice rang out in Ling Ran’s mind.
