Chapter 346 - THE NEW DOCTOR (2/2)
”You should become a paparazzi or a tabloid writer if you are that interested in gathering information.” Seiji scoffed.
”Gathering information has become a second instinct. I was converted into a gossiper by my snarky patients. You would not believe how much gossip I hear about the Mountain Ridge elite. I could start a tabloid and make billions.” Dr Nomura sighed.
Seiji looked at Dr Nomura with narrowed eyes. This fellow doctor was a cosmetic surgeon. His cases were not often complicated except when he was dealing with a dangerous, natural or accidental, deformity.
Furthermore, his contributions to the medical field were less contentious than other fields.
Cosmetic medical devices and techniques could be patented without public outrage. However, when a curative method or product was sold, everyone around the world would climb on a high horse and scold medical companies for profiting off disease and suffering.
Therefore, Dr Nomura was like a golden goose in the institute.
Unfortunately, he did not have the dignity and awareness of a precious doctor. His gossipy behaviour was particularly incurable.
Seiji thought of asking about the rumour mill because he was a little worried about the bad things being said about Akira. However, he reminded himself that it did not matter. His sister was happy.
”Let's go to the meeting,” Seiji told Dr Nomura.
”Roger. We can get a little more information by seeing the real person in action.” He responded with enthusiasm.
”Dr Nishimura is giving a lecture on her planned research into the brain stimulation of comatose patients. That should be your focus.”
”You know, if you were more interested in things other than medical techniques, you would not be an old single dog. If you keep going like this, it might fall off from the lack of use.” Dr Nomura laughed vulgarly while looking meaningfully at Seiji's crotch.
Seiji's face darkened at the crude implication.
”But don't worry. You have a friend in me. If it falls off, I will give you a discount on your treatment. I am currently working on enlargement options. Not only will I repair it for you, but I will also make sure that it is large enough to slay dragons.” He added righteously and placed an arm around Seiji's shoulder as they walked into the auditorium.
Seiji pushed him away with disgust on his face. ”Can't you talk properly?”
”I am talking properly. I am giving you an update on medical techniques.” Dr Nomura laughed. ”I was meaning to ask you if you could do a cardiovascular consult for me. Let's meet up later, okay?”
Seiji was not listening to him anymore. His eyes were drawn to the beautiful young woman at the podium. The woman had long hair held in a ponytail, and a pair of simple glasses were perched on her nose. Furthermore, she was wearing a white coat.
However, he could not be mistaken.
It was that crazy girl, Hina!
