The Surgeon’s Studio

At the Imperial Capital hospital, it was still easier than at Sea City General Hospital. Zheng Ren did not have to worry about the patient’s pre-operation and post-operation instructions. He did not have to worry about whether the patient’s family members were in a stable mood or whether there was a risk of being sued.

After looking at the CT radiographic films and the relevant examination reports, Zheng Ren saw Dong Jia bring the people from the medical administration division with cameras and other equipment to the doctor’s office to go through the procedures. He then walked out.

“Boss, don’t even think about going on stage,” Su Yun warned him for the third time. “This isn’t Sea City. Old Chief Physician Pan isn’t standing behind you to support you. Besides, it’s not just general surgery and thoracic surgery. You’ll also have to go on stage with urology and vascular surgery. By then, half of the hospital’s surgical departments will be on stage. It’ll be quite lively. They’re all big shots in the surgical field. If you go on stage, you’ll offend someone for no reason.”

Although Su Yun was warning him and his tone was not very gentle, he was telling the truth.

During this special period, more than half of the doctors in the Imperial Capital Hospital were not at home. They rushed to the frontline to provide support. At this time, they encountered such a complicated case. It was really a headache.

They should go up and take a look. Zheng Ren still did not give up. He looked at Professor Yang’s expression and knew that the possibility of the surgery being taken down was not high. Or to be honest, Professor Yang could not do this surgery.

“Yiren, you and Chang Yue should go back first,” Zheng Ren looked at Xie Yiren and said.

“Hmm?”

“There is a very complicated surgery that involves many departments. I estimate that the surgery won’t be done within fifteen hours. I want to go take a look.” Zheng Ren gave a very conservative estimate.

Fifteen hours of surgery was considered a conservative estimate.

“Then why don’t you go back and rest?” Xie Yiren was still very worried.

Although Zheng Ren had a good sleep last night, he still couldn’t rest.

Xie Yiren was especially afraid that Zheng Ren would get sick if he was tired after he came back.

Zheng Ren smiled and rubbed Xie Yiren’s head. After he went home, she stopped combing her ponytail. He rubbed it. It was fluffy and adorable.

“You should rest early.” Xie Yiren was still full of worry. Zheng Ren smiled and nodded.

Zheng Ren was not in a hurry to see the patient off. Emergency treatment had little to do with him after coming to the Imperial Capital Hospital, but it gave him another kind of experience.

“We agreed to only go up today to take a look.” Su Yun glanced at Zheng Ren and warned him again and again.

“We’ll see, we’ll see.” Zheng Ren smiled honestly.

Su Yun really did not know whether Zheng Ren was stupid, he was tired and muddled, or if he had just returned from the frontline and had not corrected his mentality of shouldering everything.

Why was he so stubborn today?

After sending Xie Yiren and Chang Yue away, Su Yun said, “We’ve rested for a whole day today and are in good condition. I even wanted to drag Chang Yue for a drink.”

“You can’t beat her.”

“Who told you that? After reaching a certain level, it’s a competition of endurance.” Su Yun looked down on Zheng Ren. There was nothing to talk about with a person like Zheng Ren who did not drink.

“Let’s go to the operating theater.” Zheng Ren was in a hurry to go to the System space to train for the surgery.

The huge amount of time for the surgery training given by the Final Mission of The Crown Jewel was almost used up at the frontline. There was less than a month left.

People really did not know how to be satisfied. In the past, Zheng Ren had dozens of hours of surgical training time and was happy as hell. But now, in terms of months, he felt that it was too little.

It was always easy to go from simple to extravagant, and it was always difficult to go from extravagant to simple.

When he came to the operating theater, Su Yun changed his clothes and went straight in. The extravagant and lascivious Zheng Ren changed into his isolation suit, found the smoking area, lit a cigarette, and entered the System space.

Zheng Ren had a general idea about the patient’s surgery.

The surgery was divided into three stages: in-vivo surgery, extracorporeal hepatectomy, reconstruction of the inferior vena cava, and autologous residual liver transplantation.

In-vivo surgery was the simplest part, such as kidney segmentectomy, lung resection, exfoliating hydatid invasion, and so on.

But extracorporeal hepatectomy and reconstruction of the inferior vena cava were more difficult.

In the later stage, autogenous liver transplantation was as difficult as attempting to fly.

The patient was the same as the patient with Budd-chiari syndrome that Zheng Ren had dealt with in the Secondary Hospital. The portal vein was blocked and blood flowed from the side branches of the vein. In addition, the left liver occupied a huge space and was in acute septic shock. His physical fitness was extremely poor.

If he wanted a successful liver transplant, even an autogenous liver transplant would be very difficult.

It was such a difficult surgery and it was a general surgery. Zheng Ren really wanted to do it!

However, what Su Yun said made sense. Zheng Ren calmed down and thought about it carefully. He decided to go and take a look at the situation first. If there was really a need, it would not be too late to spend the time to train for the surgery.

He found countless excuses for himself.

Ding dong.

Just as Zheng Ren was thinking about it, the long-awaited voice of the system mission rang in his ears.

[System mission: Show your talent, first stage.

Mission content: Complete the surgical treatment of hepatic echinococcosis.

Mission reward: 10,000 experience points, +2 luck points, activate passive skill [Reconstruction].

Mission time: 24 hours.]

Ding dong.

[System mission: Break through the final barrier of the Department of Hepatobiliary and Pancreatic Surgery!

Mission content: complete an autologous liver transplant operation.

Mission reward: 10,000 experience points, +4 luck points.

Mission time: 24 hours.]

‘Huh?’ Zheng Ren was stunned.

In the past, when the system frequently issued missions, there had never been a case of two consecutive missions.

Now that the System had not issued missions for a long time, this time, it actually issued two missions at once! Zheng Ren had a better reason, so he did not have to persuade himself to give up on the operation.

The mission time was actually 24 hours… Zheng Ren was speechless at this. This meant that the System determined that the average time for successful surgery was 24 hours.

This surgery was really difficult.

However, the reward was also very generous. Zheng Ren had basically ignored the 10,000 experience points. How could a person who was already so far ahead be scared by 10,000 experience points?

He paid attention to the +2 and +4 luck points.

The luck attribute brought Zheng Ren a lot of inexplicable benefits. There was also the passive ability [Reconstruction]. Zheng Ren did not know what it was, but he felt that it had something to do with the image examination.

The System had finally issued a mission, and it was a two-hit mission. This was a good thing.

Autologous liver transplantation, known as the last technical barrier of hepatobiliary surgery, was the System’s name for the mission.

Forget it, don’t think so much, just do it. Zheng Ren suppressed his palpitating heart and clicked to buy surgery training time.

The simulation mannequin rose from the ground, the experimental body in position as Zheng Ren began the operation training.

Outside, there are people from the relevant departments doing the surgery. But in the System, Zheng Ren soon discovered a bitter fact—he had to start from scratch.

This is absolutely maddening.

Zheng Ren felt like his heart was bleeding as he wasted a lot of his surgical training time on surgeries in other departments instead of autologous liver transplants.

After a short excitement, Zheng Ren focused his mind, cast aside distracting thoughts, and began the operation.
