family of doctors

Anping Hospital, outside the operating room of the emergency department.

Shao Chen hurried over from the school and saw Shao Xinyu and his wife who had already received the news and were waiting outside.

Shao Chen hurriedly walked towards Shao Xinyu, and asked nervously, "Auntie, how is the situation?"

Shao Xinyu was silent for a while, and then said: "A group of surgical experts have come, and your second uncle also came to the stage to perform the operation in person, and they will do their best to rescue him."

Hearing what she said, Shao Chen probably had a bottom line in his heart.

Obviously the accident was serious, otherwise Shao Xinyu would not have spoken so reservedly.

What Shao Chen didn't expect was that Shao Changgeng would appear on stage in person.As a medical student, he knows very well how much perseverance and courage it takes to operate on a loved one on the operating table and keep calm while looking at the bloody body of the loved one.

Shao Chen didn't doubt the ability of his second uncle Shao Changgeng, but he was a little worried whether his emotions would be affected.

Sitting anxiously in the corridor outside the operating room, waiting anxiously, watching the hour hand on the wall go round and round, but the lights in the operating room are still on, and only a few itinerant nurses rush in and out.

operating room.

An emergency operation involving the best surgeons in the hospital was underway. Compared to the nervousness of the others, Shao Changgeng, the chief surgeon, seemed very calm.

His knife skills were still clean and neat. He quickly cut open the abdomen, accurately found the bleeding point in the bloody mess, separated and ligated the blood vessels one by one, and quickly removed the damaged liver.

The car accident caused rupture of multiple organs in the abdominal cavity, severe head trauma, and subdural hemorrhage. While the damaged organs were repaired through laparotomy, a neurosurgery doctor was also invited to perform craniotomy to stop the bleeding.

The tense operation went on for several hours. Shao Changgeng finally cleaned up the ruptured organs in the abdominal cavity. He looked up at the heart rate and blood pressure on the monitor. He was just relieved when he heard the monitor start beeping loudly. Call the police.

"Dean Shao!" The neurosurgery surgeon suddenly called Shao Changgeng.

Shao Changgeng went to look under the microscope, his face suddenly darkened.

"Extensive bleeding, what's going on?!"

"It is suspected that the patient's brain has a hidden hemangioma rupture..."

"Find the bleeding site and clamp the blood vessel immediately!" Shao Changgeng calmly ordered, "The head nurse starts the countdown! Get two more packs of Type A blood from the blood bank, speed!"

The countdown clock on the wall was changing numbers minute by minute, beep beep beep beep, and the sound of the monitor alarm made the atmosphere in the operating room extremely tense.

Suddenly, the neurosurgery doctor shouted: "Dean, the patient's intracranial pressure is too high, and the brain tissue begins to expand!"

"..."

The intracranial pressure is too high, which means that the brain will be squeezed out of the body by huge pressure. Shao Changgeng once saw such a case when he was an intern in the UK. The patient had a hidden tumor in the brain, and the tumor tissue suddenly became large during the operation. Bleeding, the entire brain sprayed out from the surgical incision like an explosion.

Such swollen brain tissue expands outward rapidly like fermented dough. If the skull is not closed at this moment, the brain tissue will swell out, and it will be impossible to close it again.

And if the brain is closed at this moment, it means...brain death.

"Dean, the head must be closed, otherwise it will be too late!" The neurosurgery doctor urged anxiously.

Shao Changgeng was silent for a moment, finally closed his eyes lightly, and said in a low voice: "Close the head, close the abdomen... stop the anesthesia... give up the rescue."

There was a moment of silence in the operating room.

What he said meant that he had chosen a dead end for his father.

Although this is the only choice at present, everyone looked at Shao Changgeng's face, but they didn't dare to say another word for a long time.

The finishing work began to be carried out in an orderly and silent manner. The brain was forcibly closed, and the dissected abdomen was quickly stitched up.

The anesthesiologist stopped the anesthetic, and the life curve on the monitor began to fluctuate slightly.

After a moment.

drip... drip...

The heart rate and respiration gradually tended to a straight line, and the monitor only made a mechanical sound, which echoed very clearly in the silent operating room.

The doctors in the operating room looked at each other with serious expressions, and finally turned their gazes to Shao Changgeng neatly.

Shao Changgeng looked at the data on the monitor, and conducted a comprehensive examination of Shao Anguo together with the neurosurgery doctor.

The heartbeat stops, the pupils dilate, and the physiological reflexes of the whole body disappear...

He has already left.

Shao Changgeng was silent for a moment, and finally looked up at the clock on the wall, and said calmly: "It is now announced that Mr. Shao Anguo died clinically, and the time of death... December 12st night, 31 o'clock, 23 o'clock."

After saying this, Shao Changgeng turned around and walked out of the operating room.

No one saw that Shao Changgeng, who was always calm, burst into a tear from the corner of his eye the moment he announced his father's death.

Lying on the operating table was his biological father. He tried his best to stand in the operating room for several hours, repairing his father's ruptured abdominal organs bit by bit, looking at the bloody scene in front of him. , tried his best to keep himself calm, and did everything a surgeon should and could do...

But he didn't expect that there was a hidden tumor in his brain, and his body was already like a completely damaged instrument. He could save this side, but he couldn't take care of the other side...

Even with the most superb medical skills, in the end, he still failed to save his father's life.

When he walked out of the operating room, he saw Shao Xinyu, Shao Chen, and his eldest brother Shao Changping who had been waiting for news. Shao Changgeng suddenly didn't know what expression to use to face these relatives.

He has undergone many operations and faced various family members. Some people jumped on the deceased relatives and shouted hoarsely, and some people impulsively came over and shook the doctor's shoulders and said why you didn't save him, why you let him die...

In fact, the scariest thing about being a surgeon is not facing the death of the patient, but facing the family members of the deceased.

The cries of pain and despair of those who have lost loved ones are the most painful.

However, at this moment, no one from the Shao family was crying hysterically, and no one ran over and grabbed the doctor's arm and shook it to ask the result, because this doctor was their relative, the relative they trusted the most.

Looking at Shao Changgeng's gloomy face, they already knew the result.

Shao Chen said anxiously: "Second Uncle..."

Shao Changgeng said in a low voice, "I did my best."

He had said this sentence many times, but this time, every word was said with a piercing heart.

Shao Xinyu finally couldn't help covering her mouth and crying softly. Xu Ran hugged her into her arms and patted her on the shoulder softly to comfort her. Shao Changping remained silent with a very heavy expression on his face.

Compared with the heart-piercing roar in the operation area next door, the calmness of the Shao family was even more depressing.

Such a depressing atmosphere also infected Shao Chen, a boy in his 20s, whose eyes began to shed tears uncontrollably.

The silent crying lasted for a long time. Shao Anguo's body was finally pushed out of the operating room. Shao Xinyu walked over and removed the white cloth covering the body, and cried out with a choked voice, "Dad..."

Shao Changping also came over, took one last look at his father, gently shook his already cold hand, and said in a low voice, "Father, let's go."

At this moment, a female doctor hurried over with a report, "Dean Shao, your father had signed a body donation agreement before his death, and he voluntarily donated his body to the medical school as a textbook for human anatomy for students after his death." , if your family members have no objections, please sign the consent form."

"What?" Shao Xinyu said in surprise, "He never mentioned this to us at all!"

Shao Changgeng stopped her questioning with his gaze, and exchanged glances with his elder brother Shao Changping. After the two brothers made eye contact, Shao Changgeng whispered, "Since this is my father's last wish, we will respect his decision."

Shao Changgeng took the consent form, signed his name, and handed it back to her.

"Thank you, Dean Shao."

"No need."

Shao Anguo's body was pushed away by the staff in charge of teaching anatomy. Shao Xinyu looked at the end of the corridor in disbelief and asked, "Dad, why would he think of donating the body?"

Shao Changping said: "Perhaps doing so can make him feel a little better."

"Easy?" Shao Xinyu asked in doubt, "Easy for what?"

Shao Xinyu knew nothing about Shao Anguo's involvement in the underworld organ trade, and neither did Shao Chen. The two listened to Shao Changping's explanation in a daze.

Only brothers Shao Changgeng and Shao Changping, who knew the truth, understood the reason why their father signed the body donation agreement.

Perhaps, Shao Anguo has also felt guilty and blamed himself over the years. He was not happy, so he wanted to use the way of donating his body after death to give his conscience a little comfort.Although doing so cannot offset the mistakes he has made, since this is his decision, as a child, all he can do is respect his choice.

Shao Changgeng looked at the direction where his father's body disappeared, sighed softly, and turned his head and said, "You all go back, there is no need to stay in the hospital anymore."

Shao Chen stood up and walked out. After walking two steps, he turned around and asked, "Second Uncle, aren't you going back?"

Shao Changgeng said, "I still have some things to do."

Shao Changping came over and patted his younger brother on the shoulder lightly, "Sleep in the duty room of the hospital today. If you are too tired, don't drive back. We will talk about things tomorrow."

Shao Changgeng nodded: "I know."

After watching the Shao family leave, Shao Changgeng returned to the operating room again.

The operating room had been cleaned up, but the urgently called surgeon was still waiting there. After all, it was the dean's father, who died directly on the operating table, and they didn't dare to leave after the operation.

Shao Changgeng glanced at everyone and said, "It's hard work for calling you here in the middle of the night today."

"What did the dean say?" The neurosurgery doctor hesitated for a while, and then said, "Your father found abnormal tissue in his brain. What nature."

Shao Changgeng nodded, "I know. He has donated his body to the medical school, and I will apply for an autopsy of his head to find out the cause of his death."

After a moment of silence, someone whispered, "Dean, please forgive me."

In fact, looking at Shao Changgeng's calm expression, saying the word "sorry" seemed superfluous, but he stood there stiffly without saying anything, and the oppressive atmosphere made everyone uncomfortable.

Shao Changgeng sighed softly, "Just do your best, and accidents during the operation are beyond our control. Okay, let's all go back, and come to the meeting room at eight o'clock tomorrow morning. I have something to explain to you."

"Okay, then Dean, you should also go to bed earlier."

"Don't work too hard..."

Shao Changgeng finally heaved a long sigh of relief after seeing off the urgently called surgical experts.

There is only one person left, and there is no need to force composure any more.

Shao Changgeng gently leaned against the wall of the operating room, rubbed his sore temples with his hands, his nose felt sore for a while, but his eye sockets were very dry, and he couldn't shed tears at all.

Shao Anguo's death was too sudden, but it seemed to be predestined long ago. When I saw him last time in England, the conversation seemed to have a taste of farewell. Only now did Shao Changgeng understand that his father's brain There is already a tumor in the stomach.

Even if this traffic accident hadn't happened, perhaps he wouldn't have survived for too long.

Do your best to rescue him before he dies, as his son, there is only so much he can do.

Shao Changgeng came out of the operating room, turned around and took the elevator downstairs, and stood downstairs, looking at everything familiar here.

In the middle of the night, Anping Hospital was very quiet. All the lights in the inpatient building were turned off. Only the emergency room on the first floor was still brightly lit. From here, you could vaguely see several doctors and nurses in white coats in the emergency department. Their busy figure.

The street lights on the side of the hospital road illuminate the spacious road like daytime, and buildings stand tall in front of them. The outpatient building is directly in front, the inpatient department is on the left, the operation building is on the right, and the laboratory, pathology and other departments are behind. The microbiology laboratory is followed by the administrative office area.

After Shao Anguo resigned, Shao Changgeng spent a large sum of money to reorganize the hardware of Anping Hospital, demolished the dilapidated surgery building and replaced it with a new look. The internal medicine ward also added a large number of beds. The science department has a separate area on the first floor for redecoration...

Under his leadership, Anping Hospital has gradually entered the right track, and the annual outpatient volume has been rising steadily, more than doubled than in the past.

Now, I can finally say something with peace of mind——

Father, I have lived up to your expectations.

Although it is very clear how many wrong things Shao Anguo has done, that he was a ruthless underworld leader, that he and Ouyang Lin teamed up to kill that innocent police officer, that he is wearing a white robe, but his hands are covered with blood... …

But that was his father after all.

The father who would take time out of his busy schedule to accompany him to the bookstore to buy textbooks when he was a child, and the father who would not hesitate to send him abroad to study when the Shao family was in danger, was the dean after returning home to his father...

No matter how bad Shao Anguo was, as a father, he didn't do much to neglect his duties.

Seeing him die on the operating table, Shao Changgeng was actually very sad.

Sighing lightly to calm down, Shao Changgeng turned around and walked to the parking lot, found his car and opened the door to get in.

Finished in the driver's seat, just about to fasten the seat belt, but saw his mobile phone dropped on the seat next to him.

Picking up the phone, a text message appears on the screen.

"Xiao Rong, I suddenly encountered an emergency and couldn't pick you up. You should take a taxi back to your villa in the western suburbs first."

Followed by a system prompt: "Failed to send."

After receiving the news of the car accident, he hurriedly sent the text message to Shao Rong, but it was not sent because of the signal?

Xiaorong didn't receive this text message, so did he take a taxi home by himself?

Shao Changgeng frowned worriedly, pressed the text message, and saw a row of missed calls displayed on the screen.

Missed call 1, at 19:10, from Shao Rong

Missed call 2, at 19:12, from Shao Rong

Missed call 3, at 19:15, from Shao Rong

……

The more you press down, the more frightened you become.Shao Rong called himself almost every 3 minutes, then stopped for a long time, and dialed three times in a row half an hour ago.

Did something happen to him?Why do you keep calling yourself?Does he want to ask for help?

Shao Changgeng was taken aback, and hurriedly called back Shao Rong's phone, but the beeping busy tone kept ringing in his ear, and there was no one answering the phone!

Shao Changgeng frowned tightly, took out his phone and turned on the GPS navigation.Fortunately, the mobile phone given to him was equipped with a tracking program. Shao Rong was not willing to replace that mobile phone, so he was able to find his location immediately when the accident happened.

Shao Changgeng waited patiently for the data connection. After a while, a small red dot appeared on the screen, showing Shao Rong's location. It was the right turn of the highway, a place with few residents but a good environment...

An ancestral home!

Could it be that the crown prince kidnapped Shao Rong?

A layer of cold sweat suddenly broke out from the palm of the hand holding the steering wheel. Shao Changgeng started the engine with a sullen face, stepped on the accelerator, and drove in the direction of An's ancestral house without hesitation.

On the highway in the middle of the night, a silver Jaguar is like a vigorous leopard hidden in the forest, galloping towards the target quickly!
