Chapter 150 A Surgery That Seemed Like Child's Play
What's going on?
Su Niannian was stunned for a moment.
"What's going on?" Su Niannian asked Zhou Qishan, who was already in surgical scrubs.
"To be absolutely sure, I brought in five more surgical experts."
“After all, Chief Lu’s identity…” Zhou Qishan hadn’t finished speaking when he was reprimanded by an elderly man in a Tang suit who had also changed into surgical scrubs.
"What do you think the operating room is? Bringing so many people here is just making things more complicated."
The elderly man in the Tang suit warned Zhou Qishan with a serious expression.
“But…” Zhou Qishan was just worried about Chief Lu.
"But what? Only Su Niannian and I will be going in for this surgery. If anything goes wrong, I'll take responsibility!"
The old man in the Tang suit left behind these words and then led Su Niannian directly into the operating room.
The six people were left standing there bewildered.
The five experts couldn't help but think to themselves, "This Chief Lu's surgery was actually performed by a teenage girl and a traditional Chinese medicine doctor in his sixties..."
Let's set aside the old traditional Chinese medicine doctor for now; after all, he's a renowned expert in medicine.
Although it is based on traditional Chinese medicine, it also involves some aspects of Western medicine, but let's leave that aside for now.
But that little girl isn't even an adult yet, is she?
She'll be the surgeon? Is there really no problem?
I doubt that an ordinary person would choose to hire such a young girl.
With such a special status, how dare Chief Lu let a little girl decide his life and death?
"This is a major open-chest surgery, are you sure there won't be any problems?" In the end, one of the surgical experts still asked the question.
After these words were spoken, the six people looked at each other in bewilderment.
"Isn't this ridiculous? How old is that girl? Is she even an adult yet?"
"You looked about fifteen or sixteen?"
"Nonsense, even if they're studying medicine, they probably haven't even finished their courses."
"Mr. Zhou, did you send us here just to watch them make a fool of themselves?"
"So, can we leave now?"
Although they were unhappy that the elderly man in the traditional Chinese suit was over sixty years old and was involved in the surgery, he was a famous national-level traditional Chinese medicine doctor, so they could only swallow their dissatisfaction and dared not say a word more.
But what about that little girl?
To perform surgery on such an important person at such a young age is simply a joke.
Zhou Qishan was also helpless, but there was nothing he could do but try to persuade the five people.
"As you can see, that girl is indeed too young, and this surgery is a major open-chest operation. In order to ensure Chief Lu's safety to the greatest extent, we hope that you can stay here."
"If any problems arise inside, we'll still need your help," Zhou Qishan kindly advised everyone not to leave.
Because this concerns Chief Lu's life or death.
Moreover, he had also inquired about the duration of the surgery, which could potentially take more than ten hours.
Since the shrapnel was too fragmented, it was impossible to remove it all; the only option was to remove the most dangerous pieces.
I hope Chief Lu hasn't been injured recently.
The situation became so bad precisely because the new wound was located so close to the original wound.
However, it's too late to say all this now. We can only hope that Su Niannian is really capable, otherwise replacing her at the last minute would be very dangerous.
Although Zhou Qishan didn't believe in gods or ghosts, he had already begun to hope in his heart that the gods would bless Chief Lu.
Inside the operating room, Chief Lu lay on the operating table, and the anesthesiologist began administering anesthesia.
Su Niannian looked around at the surgical equipment and tools.
Everything seemed somewhat outdated.
However, Su Niannian still examined it carefully.
The elderly man in the Tang suit was also wearing surgical scrubs and undergoing a final examination.
About fifteen minutes later, everything was ready and the lights outside the operating room came on.
The operation begins.
Su Niannian found a good position, made her knife, searched for the shrapnel, and added spiritual spring water into the IV drip.
It would occasionally appear where Su Niannian's scalpel would fall.
Su Niannian did her best to let the spiritual spring water protect her vital organs.
Su Niannian was very careful when searching for the shrapnel.
They were afraid it might damage the tissues and nerves.
Before long, a thin layer of sweat had appeared on Su Niannian's forehead.
"Wipe your sweat."
An assistant helped Su Niannian wipe her sweat.
Su Niannian continued her surgery.
"There's bleeding here, use hemostats." Su Niannian removed the shrapnel fragments one by one.
When bleeding appeared, Su Niannian used hemostats to stop the bleeding, and then handed the bag to the old man in the Tang suit.
The surgery proceeded smoothly.
Outside, the six people waited anxiously.
Every now and then, I would peek inside through the window of the second operating room door.
"Why do I feel so uneasy? Is that girl even capable?"
"I don't think it will work."
"The surgery has been going on for twenty minutes, and it's still proceeding smoothly inside, so nothing bad has happened yet."
Outside, Gu Nan sat alone in a chair, surrounded by a number of soldiers.
Everyone is waiting for the surgery results.
"It should be fine, since I heard they brought in five experts."
"It will be alright, everything will be alright."
However, when the soldiers accompanying them outside heard that none of the five so-called experts had entered the operating room to begin the procedure...
Everyone is stupid.
They even dared not speak up when they wanted to discuss something.
They all stared solemnly at the operating room door.
Gu Nan actually believed in Su Niannian, but he still couldn't help but worry.
After all, there are many unforeseen circumstances surrounding major surgeries like open-chest surgery.
"The location of this shrapnel fragment is the most tricky and also the most dangerous."
The fragment the old man in the Tang suit was referring to was the shrapnel fragment from the bullet that they had seen earlier that could have scraped the heart.
It's also the most dangerous part.
The shrapnel was almost touching my heart, and with each heartbeat, I felt as if it would pierce my heart at any moment.
This was also the biggest challenge for Su Niannian during this surgery.
Su Niannian nodded and switched to a more delicate pair of tweezers and scalpel.
Prepare to remove the shrapnel.
As soon as he touched the exposed corner of the shrapnel, Commander Lu's heart skipped a beat.
Su Niannian frowned, feeling that when the shrapnel was pulled out, it was very likely to hit her heart.
Su Niannian brought out some more spiritual spring water.
"Why is there seepage?" The old man in the Tang suit was a little confused. Logically speaking, there shouldn't be seepage in this location.
So, where did this seepage come from?
Su Niannian no longer cared about being exposed; once the spiritual spring water was activated, it was absorbed by her body.
Su Niannian could only slowly inject spiritual spring water into the vicinity of her heart.
To protect the heart to the greatest extent possible.
However, the shrapnel was already completely encased in nerves and flesh.
Su Niannian could only carefully perform the separation, and during the process, she had to continuously inject spiritual spring water.
Fortunately, although the old man in the Tang suit noticed something was wrong, he didn't say anything more when he saw Su Niannian calmly continuing the surgery.
