Fang Jianlin’s face turned red. How could he not hear that the voice was aimed directly at him? “Who, who is speaking?! Saying I’m not proactive in saving people? If it weren’t for these trash from Longhua Hospital causing trouble, we would have sent the injured to the hospital long ago,” Fang Jianlin retorted loudly.
At this moment, a voice came from inside the bus. Everyone looked and saw two people carrying a makeshift stretcher, and another person holding blood bags and glucose. The man on the stretcher was covered in blood, but his weak eyes were still open, clearly not dead.
“What our Mo Ge said is about you!” “Exactly, I really don’t know where you get the nerve to call the doctors at Longhua First Hospital trash. Look at yourselves, look at us, who is trash, can’t you see it yourself?” “This injured person has four steel rods penetrating his body, with damage to his lungs, kidneys, liver, and thigh. I’ll ask you, can you save him?! If we are trash, you are worse than trash!”
The three who came out were Chang Wei, Liu Ze, and Wang Qi. These three, young and spirited, couldn’t hold back, glaring at Fang Jianlin and unleashing a barrage of angry retorts. “You, you’re just quibbling!” Fang Jianlin shouted in exasperation. “Hmph, as long as people aren’t blind, they’ll know if we’re right or wrong!” Chang Wei said dismissively.
It was clear that there was a significant difference between the medical staff from the Provincial Hospital and those from Longhua First Hospital. The medical staff from Longhua First Hospital were covered in blood and looked disheveled. In contrast, the medical staff from the Provincial Hospital were all neatly dressed, especially Fang Jianlin, who stood with his hands behind his back, his white coat impeccably clean. He hardly looked like someone who had come to rescue. Tang Binwen saw all of this clearly.
Seeing the injured being brought out, Huang Qizhong couldn’t bother with anything else and quickly stepped forward to check on the injured. Finding that the injured person was indeed fine, he breathed a sigh of relief and ordered, “Quick, quickly send the injured to the hospital.”
“They can’t be sent to Longhua First Hospital, they should be sent to our Provincial Hospital!” Fang Jianlin immediately shouted again upon hearing this. This was all about money. For major accidents like this with insurance, each one was like a cash machine to him. How could he allow these cash machines to disappear? Fang Jianlin then turned his gaze to Tang Binwen.
“Why are you talking nonsense outside? Come in and help!” At this moment, Chen Mo, still in the bus, spoke again. Hearing the voice, Chang Wei and the other two handed the injured person over to Huang Qizhong and quickly returned to the bus. As the crowd around the bus dispersed, Tang Binwen also saw the situation inside the bus. He didn’t give any instructions and quickly walked towards the bus.
Soon, Tang Binwen gasped. Tang Binwen discovered that the situation inside was much more serious than he had imagined. At this moment, a young doctor was operating on an injured person with three steel rods inserted into his abdomen, while two other young doctors were cutting steel rods from penetrating wounds that were not severe, sending them out one by one.
“Director Tang, with so many injured, their Longhua First Hospital is simply not capable. It’s better to send them to our Provincial Hospital,” Fang Jianlin quickly said, following behind Tang Binwen. “Who said the doctors at Longhua First Hospital are not capable? I think they are very professional,” Tang Binwen said coldly. He wasn’t blind; he could tell at a glance who was truly there to rescue.
“This!” Fang Jianlin was instantly stunned. Then he pointed at Chen Mo, “Director Tang, such severe penetrating wounds, even if sent to the hospital, there’s no guarantee of survival. That kid is operating on the injured in the bus, this is simply causing trouble for you. How can you still let them send the injured to Longhua First Hospital?” As the director of surgery at the Provincial Hospital, how could he not see that the woman’s injuries were beyond saving? The penetrating wounds all over her body were enough to cause severe damage to her internal organs; it was a fatal situation.
“Hmph, Director Fang, just because you are incapable doesn’t mean other doctors are,” Huang Qizhong, who was arranging for the injured to be sent to the hospital, snorted coldly. Fang Jianlin was immediately angered. When had he, the esteemed director of emergency at the Provincial Hospital, ever been questioned like this? He immediately declared, “If this kid’s surgery is successful, we will leave immediately! This entire rescue mission will be handed over to Longhua First Hospital. If the injured person dies, your Longhua First Hospital will bear all the responsibility!”
Huang Qizhong nodded in agreement, “Okay.” Seeing Huang Qizhong agree so readily, a hint of smugness appeared on Fang Jianlin’s lips. He didn’t know the condition of the previous injured person, and whether his internal organs were damaged was just the word of the doctors from Longhua First Hospital. However, this injured person, he could see clearly now, was in a completely fatal situation. He didn’t believe that Chen Mo could save such an injured person.
Chen Mo took out several silver needles and looked at the woman, saying, “Don’t be afraid, I will seal all your meridians and pain nerves, you won’t feel any pain.” “Mm!” The woman nodded. Then she pleaded, “Doctor, I, I don’t want to die. My child is about to take the high school entrance exam, I don’t want to die.” “Don’t worry, you won’t die,” Chen Mo comforted her. Seeing the certainty in Chen Mo’s eyes, the woman felt a little more at ease, but she was still so nervous that her forehead was covered in cold sweat.
Chen Mo picked up the silver needles and inserted them into several acupoints on the woman. To Fang Jianlin outside, this looked utterly ridiculous. “Treating illness with silver needles, hehe, I confess my ignorance.” At this moment, even Tang Binwen’s expression seemed somewhat displeased. Operating without anesthesia, directly using silver needles, he had never heard of such a thing. However, Fang Jianlin didn’t stop him. After all, if someone died in front of Director Tang, it would be even more advantageous for him. It would also let these people know the consequences of showing off in front of him.
Chen Mo had already removed all the steel rods from the injured woman. Because Chen Mo had sealed several major acupoints on the woman’s body, the injured person did not bleed profusely. Coupled with the on-site blood transfusion, the woman’s vital signs remained relatively stable. Cutting open the abdomen, Chen Mo frowned slightly because the woman’s condition was not optimistic. However, Chen Mo still used sutures to stitch the woman’s ruptured blood vessels, and then stitched her damaged internal organs. It was the intestines that were damaged, with more than a dozen places of rupture, making them riddled with holes.
Even for Chen Mo, sweat began to bead on his forehead from the continuous high-intensity surgery. At this time, other injured people with penetrating wounds that did not damage internal organs were also being transported out of the bus by others. Tang Binwen was quite satisfied with what he saw. It was orderly and efficient, no less than what a large hospital like the Provincial Hospital could do. Now, Tang Binwen’s only concern was Chen Mo’s surgery.
