475 Nice Weather (1/2)
In the blink of an eye, everyone crowded around Ling Ran.
A few male doctors and female doctors started to argue because all of them wanted to be the one to treat Ling Ran.
The atmosphere surrounding the nurses was a lot more peaceful, and they had tasks allocated to every single person. They huddled together as Nurse Liu ordered in a hushed tone, ”I'll be acting as the third scrub nurse. Beginning from my left, the first person will be the second scrub nurse, and the second person will be the first scrub nurse. Starting from my right, the first person will be the first surgical nurse, the second person will be the second surgical nurse, and so on…”
”Is there a need for so many people?”
”Do we even have the necessary equipment?”
”We don't have an operating table either.”
The young nurses did not understand what was going on and questioned the arrangement in a soft voice.
Nurse Liu shook her head in resignation and said, ”Have you guys participated in organ transplant surgeries before? Every nurse will leave after they're done with the task at hand. We'll follow a rotation system where all of you take turns. After you perform one task, stand aside and let the next person do the next task.”
”Oh.”
”This works.”
”Sounds good.”
All the nurses voiced their agreement. They then took out a large bottle of spirit to wash their hands and wrists. Some of them were so excited that they took a large gulp of the spirit. The male tourists who were unable to squeeze themselves into the crowd got worried and diffident when they saw that.
The young tourist guide at the center had gone to find Ling Ran a wheelchair. By the time she returned, two bodyguards from the parking lot and two hack writers from the office trailed behind her. Like happy pugs, they insisted to help.
”The wheelchair is here. Please make way,” the young tour guide at the center yelled as she stood beside the crowd. She tried hard to force her way through.
One of the bodyguards behind her refused to play second fiddle. He shouted, ”I know how to administer emergency treatment. Let me in.”
In an instant, a few employee cards appeared in front of him. Those people were obviously wearing large white coats in the photographs displayed on the employee cards.
”The Emergency Department of Yun Hua Hospital?” The bodyguard read out loud and looked at them with a puzzled expression. ”Are you guys here for a team-building trip?”
The doctors quickly put away their employee cards.
It only took a while for a few doctors to inspect Ling Ran's injured foot.
Of course, those doctors were wearing gloves as they did so. Ling Ran had prepared many pairs of gloves before the trip and kept them in the box where he kept his tracheostomy equipment.
The doctors who managed to squeeze to the front of the crowd reported their tasks one by one.
”I've cleaned his foot.”
”Let's bandage it.”
”Secure it with a splint.”
”Huh? You even brought a splint along with you?” Doctor Zhou stared at the senior resident doctor behind him—Zheng Pei—in astonishment.
Zheng Pei had thick eyebrows and large eyes. He chuckled good-naturedly and said, ”I encounter patients who broke their legs at places like Tiger Leaping Gorge around every ten days or half a month in the Emergency Medical Center. It's not often that we visit somewhere like this, so I thought of doing a good deed and bringing a splint along in case we encounter a tourist who fell down while hiking or something. Securing an injured foot with a splint definitely triumphs doing so with a tree branch. It's more effective and convenient.”
”Seriously? The next time you come over to my place, you better do your homework before preparing a gift. Don't just bring over whatever is on top of your head. Couldn't you have brought something better to our team building trip?” Doctor Zhou shook his head as he spoke.
Zheng Pei chuckled. ”Well, it came in handy, didn't it?”
”Thank God you didn't bring a defibrillator along.” Doctor Zhou laughed.
Unperturbed, Zheng Pei said, ”You're welcome. There'll definitely be a defibrillator in ambulances, but it's a different story when it comes to splints. Sigh, I was just worried that some beautiful lady would fall down while hiking and break her leg. It would be a pity if her leg isn't secured well.”
Doctor Zhou nodded slowly and said to Ling Ran, ”Well, in this case, the splint Doctor Zheng brought did come in handy.”
Doctor Zhou secured Ling Ran's injured foot with the splint as he spoke.
Ling Ran sighed. ”I merely sprained my foot.”
