Lin Lin sighed deeply, rubbed his temples with his hands, and said with a wry smile, "I know how dangerous it is, but we've already established numerous treatment options, and each one has been ruled out."

Her voice was a little hoarse, but still firm and powerful.

"This strange disease is like a fog, and there is no way out."

"I don't know if you noticed just now, but the moss on the patient's head seems to have grown a lot bigger inside the protective shield."

"It's spreading faster and faster. We can't just let the moss continue to grow! If we don't find a solution, this patient might not be able to be saved."

Zhao Ming frowned and paced back and forth in the corridor, his steps hurried and a little flustered.

"Then we can't just blindly perform a craniotomy. Can we first contact experts from other hospitals to see if they have any better suggestions or case experiences to learn from?" There was a hint of expectation in his eyes, trying to find a glimmer of hope.

Nan Sheng shook her head slightly and said helplessly, "We've contacted everyone, and no one has come across this type of case. Based on what we've discovered, other hospitals are also having trouble with this type of case."

"The way this moss grows is too strange. It seems to be forming a special symbiotic relationship with the brain nerves. It is difficult for us to find a breakthrough point." He looked up at the dim light, his eyes full of confusion and helplessness.

Lin Lin gritted his teeth and said firmly, "I still prefer to try a craniotomy, but of course not rush into it right now."

"At the very least, we must first determine the primary purpose of the surgery. Is it excision? Or simply exploration? We also need to carefully consider the composition of the surgical team and the patient's surgical examination..."

Zhao Ming stopped pacing and looked at Lin Lin solemnly. "The risks of a craniotomy are too great. If there's even the slightest mistake, the patient might not even be able to maintain his current condition. But if we really want to try it, we must plan every detail to perfection. The members of the surgical team must not only be highly skilled, but also have extensive experience in dealing with emergencies."

Nan Sheng continued, "I've only collected samples of the lichen on his head for testing. If surgery is required, his examination won't be limited to routine tests."

"Can we design a specialized examination process based on the special relationship between lichen planus and brain nerves to see if we can find some exploitable breakthroughs in advance and minimize the risk of nerve damage during surgery?"

Lin Lin nodded slightly: "That's right, and the postoperative recovery plan must also be planned at the same time."

"Even if the surgery successfully removes or explores the lichen, how to prevent it from growing again and how to restore the patient's brain function to normal are difficult problems that we need to consider in advance."

"We can organize a special research group, gather together the elites in related fields in the hospital, brainstorm, and perhaps come up with some new ideas."

Zhao Ming sighed: "If surgery is really necessary, then this is the only way. Time is running out, we have to act quickly."

Li Xiuze had to interrupt his participation in the subsequent conversation as an emergency call quickly called him back to the emergency department.

The person on the other end of the phone informed him that a new patient had arrived and was in critical condition, and he needed to go back and take control of the situation.

Lin Lin looked at Zhao Ming and Nan Sheng, his tone serious: "The most urgent thing is to finalize the preliminary surgical plan framework."

"Nan Sheng, you must have discovered quite a few issues while taking photos and recording these past two days. Try to use these small discoveries to find as much existing research as possible on the symbiotic relationship between moss and brain nerves, no matter how fragmentary. Perhaps you can uncover details we've overlooked."

"Zhao Ming, contact the elite doctors in the hospital, confirm the membership list of the special research group, and arrange the time for the first seminar, preferably this afternoon."

Zhao Ming nodded in agreement and hurried to arrange the relevant matters.

Nan Sheng also immediately turned around and walked towards the information room in a hurry.

Lin Lin stood there alone for a moment, then walked towards the patient's ward.

She looked at the unconscious patient on the bed through the glass and said softly, "We will not give up. We will definitely find a solution."

There were many difficulties in preparing the surgical plan.

At the first meeting of the special research group, doctors expressed their opinions, but most of them were concerned about unknown risks and questioned the feasibility of the surgery.

Lin Lin firmly wrote down the key steps and goals of the operation on the whiteboard, trying to guide everyone to focus on solving the problem.

“We all know this is an unprecedented challenge, but the future of our patients is in our hands.”

"Every new idea, no matter how risky, is worth exploring." Lin Lin's eyes swept over every doctor present.

After several hours of intense discussion, a relatively complete pre-operative examination process was finally determined, including the use of new neuroimaging technology to more accurately locate the connection between lichen and nerves, and a series of special blood tests to analyze the growth factors of lichen.

However, new disagreements arose regarding the formation of the surgical team.

Several senior doctors were hesitant to participate in the operation, fearing that a failure would affect their reputations.

Lin Lin spoke with them one by one, explaining to them both emotionally and logically: "We are doctors, and saving lives is our mission."

"This patient has no other hope in his current condition, and we have the ability and the responsibility to try."

“If we hold back because we’re afraid of failure, then we don’t deserve to wear the white coat.”

In the end, the surgical team was formed with great difficulty.

The members began the final preparations before the operation with a nervous but determined mood, while Lin Lin came to the patient's bedside again and silently prayed for the success of the operation.

Time passed quickly, and in a blink of an eye, the day of surgery for Mr. Moss, a patient with amnesia, quietly arrived.

At the beginning, during the preparation period for the operation, Lin Lin and his team members tried many times to obtain detailed personal information and past experiences from Mr. Moss, trying to find the root cause of the disease or a breakthrough in treatment from these clues.

However, every attempt to inquire would, without exception, cause Mr. Moss to fall into an extremely manic state. His emotions were out of control like surging waves, his body trembled violently, and his eyes were full of fear and resistance.

In order to prevent further stimulation to him and thus affect the stability of his condition, the team had no choice but to give up the subsequent questioning plan and choose to observe quietly.

However, something worth celebrating happened. That is, under the protection of the special protective shield, Mr. Moss seemed to gradually gain some ability to store memories.
