"What did you say?! You said her heart is on the right side?!" Ma Peng stared at Cui Jie in disbelief.
Faintly, Ma Peng could still see the slight rise and fall of Cui Jie's chest, clearly indicating signs of life.
"How is that possible? This, this is impossible!" For Ma Peng, it was like a bolt from the blue!
He had originally planned to torture Chen Fan over this matter and then drag three people down with him, but he never expected such a result.
Ma Peng stumbled back a few steps, unable to accept this outcome.
"Bang!"
Just then, the door was once again kicked open, and a figure rushed in frantically.
"Cui Jie!" Seeing the fallen figure, the person lunged forward as if mad.
"Cui Jie, wake up, wake up!"
"It's all my fault, it's all my fault for not protecting you, Cui Jie, wake up, wake up!"
"Brother Fan, Cui Jie is fine, right? Brother Fan, I beg you, you must save her. She's an unfortunate woman, you must save her!"
Seeing the other person's anxious face, Chen Fan stepped forward and gently patted his shoulder, "Da Xiong, don't worry, with me here, she won't die."
This figure was none other than Da Xiong.
Da Xiong was originally in Mingzhou City, but upon learning that Ma Peng had escaped, he drove to Jiangcheng and dispatched people to protect the safety of those around Chen Fan.
However, despite all his calculations, he never imagined that Ma Peng would attack a defenseless woman and child!
"Ma Peng! I'm going to kill you!" Da Xiong was completely enraged, stood up, and charged directly at Ma Peng.
He then grabbed Ma Peng's body and smashed his head fiercely against the ground.
"Bang!"
Ma Peng's head instantly went numb, blood gushing out, looking extremely tragic.
"You want to faint? No way!"
How could Da Xiong be satisfied? He picked up the kettle of boiling water from the table, opened it, and poured it onto Ma Peng's face.
"Ah!"
A shrill scream erupted.
Ma Peng, who was on the verge of passing out, instantly woke up, clutching his reddened face and writhing in pain.
"They were just defenseless women and children, and you wanted to harm them! You're a beast!" Da Xiong kicked Ma Peng's chest repeatedly.
With the muscle-enhancing cream he had used, Da Xiong's kicks caused Ma Peng's chest to cave in within a few strikes, and he coughed up blood.
Just then, the sound of an ambulance suddenly echoed from downstairs.
This was the emergency call that Chen Fan had instructed Qin Shuran to make before he went upstairs, as he had already seen Cui Jie lying in a pool of blood downstairs.
"Help, help!" Ma Peng, almost unrecognizable from Da Xiong's torment, mumbled for help.
"Help? Ma Peng, attacking a woman and child sealed your fate!" A murderous intent flashed in Da Xiong's eyes.
"Don't do anything here, take him away for processing," Chen Fan's voice suddenly rang out.
Da Xiong, who was about to deliver a killing blow to Ma Peng, calmed down and retracted his fist, which was as big as a sandbag.
"Leave this to me, take him away. As for Cui Jie, you can rest assured," Chen Fan nodded at Da Xiong.
Da Xiong naturally trusted Chen Fan's medical skills. He glanced at Cui Jie, a complex emotion flashing in his eyes, then picked up the half-dead Ma Peng and walked towards the door.
As soon as Da Xiong left, a group of paramedics carrying a stretcher and medical kit entered the room.
"This is a gunshot wound?" The doctor was shocked after examining the wound.
"Cut open the patient's clothes. The bullet in her chest must be removed immediately," Chen Fan commanded.
The leading paramedic frowned slightly, "Sir, we have procedures for emergencies, and this is a gunshot wound. Even if we send her to the hospital, we need to report it before we can treat her."
Chen Fan's expression gradually turned cold, "Can't you see she's on the verge of death?"
The paramedic replied, "It can't be helped. Everything must follow procedures. We are ordinary doctors, and we don't want to take risks. Besides, who knows if she's a bad person? Otherwise, why would she have a gunshot wound?"
Several nurses nodded in agreement.
"Saving lives and helping the injured, have you forgotten the duty of your uniform? Whether she's a bad person or not has nothing to do with your duty. How can you call yourselves doctors like this?" Chen Fan questioned coldly.
"Who do you think you are?! How dare you question us?"
"I am a doctor."
"A doctor? Heh, kid, I told you, our hospital has regulations. As a doctor, don't you know this? This injured person must be taken back to the hospital first, then reported to the police station, and only after her identity is confirmed can we treat her." The paramedic still adhered strictly to the rules.
"All I know is that you are too hesitant to be a doctor, and you don't deserve the title of doctor at all." Chen Fan no longer paid attention to the paramedic in front of him. Instead, he opened the medical kit they brought and began to operate on Cui Jie himself.
"Kid, what did you say?! I don't deserve to be a doctor?" The paramedic seemed angry; these words were an insult to him!
However, seeing Chen Fan about to operate on Cui Jie, he sneered and instructed, "Quick, get your phones out and record him. This injured person was not touched by us!"
Then, the paramedic picked up his phone and made a call.
Meanwhile, Chen Fan had already disinfected Cui Jie's wound and was preparing to remove the bullet.
If it were anyone else, they might have to enlarge the wound to search for the bullet, but for Chen Fan, it was nothing. He knew exactly where the bullet was.
"Clang!" With a sound, Chen Fan had already removed the bullet.
Seeing this, the paramedics and nurses present were all astonished.
Then, an even more shocking scene unfolded.
Chen Fan, without needing to enlarge the wound, used the small puncture wound to begin suturing Cui Jie's damaged esophageal wall and injured blood vessels with a sewing needle.
After a few minutes, Chen Fan began to close Cui Jie's wound.
Holding the cardiac monitor, Chen Fan skillfully attached it to Cui Jie.
A miracle occurred. Cui Jie, who was on the verge of death, regained her heartbeat, and her vital signs gradually stabilized.
She had not yet woken up, but was suffering from hemorrhagic shock due to severe blood loss.
Seeing the readings on the monitor, Chen Fan finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Who is violating regulations and attempting to perform surgery on the patient privately?" However, at this moment, two figures entered the room.
Upon seeing the newcomers, the paramedic's face lit up with joy, and he quickly stepped forward, "Director Chen, Director Jian!"
"It's this kid! He's the one who wants to operate on the patient! I tried to dissuade him, but he wouldn't listen. He even claimed to be a doctor. This is a gunshot wound, and performing surgery in such a dirty place is practically murder!"
The paramedic pointed at Chen Fan, exaggerating the situation severely.
"Director Chen, Director Jian, long time no see." Chen Fan removed his medical gloves and greeted the two newcomers.
"Heh, I didn't expect you to know Director Chen and Director Jian. Kid, you're going to face the consequences!"
The paramedic had a smug look, but he completely failed to notice the change in expression on the faces of the two men when they saw Chen Fan!
