Lin Zhixing was originally sleeping in a daze. After hearing these words, his mind went blank for a few seconds, and then he woke up instantly!
137 beds!
Isn't it Zhou Qiaohua?
"What happened? When did it happen?"
When Lin Zhixing said this, he had already stood up from the bed, holding the phone while changing clothes.
Don’t dare to stop for even a second!
When she made her ward rounds at night, the old man was fine and his heartbeat was normal.
It's only been a few hours, how could he suddenly die!
"I don't know what happened, but she unplugged the battery and AC power cords herself," said the doctor.
Lin Zhixing was already fully awake. She quickly asked, "Are you sure she pulled it out herself?!"
After the artificial heart was installed, the doctor repeatedly reminded Zhou Qiaohua and others around her of the importance of replacing the artificial heart's battery promptly.
The hospital provided the elderly with six batteries, each of which can run for 6-8 hours.
To ensure the safety of patients, the AC power is plugged in before going to bed at night.
This is double insurance.
There will definitely be no accidents.
Whoever unplugs this battery and the AC power will be committing murder.
If the old woman did it herself, then she committed suicide.
"Looking at the situation, it should be. We rushed over immediately after the machine sounded the alarm and performed emergency treatment, but it was already... too late." The doctor was silent for a moment, then said, "Anyway, please come as soon as possible."
When Lin Zhixing got dressed and went downstairs, he saw He Yanchen already standing at the entrance.
The man's face looked heavy.
Apparently, he had been notified as well.
Even if Zhou Qiaohua treated him badly, she was still his mother.
The two of them went out together and got in the car.
The car drove smoothly in the night.
No one spoke during the whole process.
Lin Zhixing noticed that the buttons on the man's shirt were misplaced, so one collar was higher than the other.
During the day, this small parking lot outside the Huayi Affiliated Hospital is always full of cars.
By evening, most of the parking lot was empty.
After the car parked...
"Wait a moment."
Lin Zhixing stopped He Yanchen who was about to get off the car.
She raised her hand and helped the man fix the misplaced buttons one by one.
The man just looked down, still not saying a word.
After the buttons were fastened again, the two got out of the car.
At this time, Zhou Qiaohua's body had been sent to the morgue.
The doctor took them there.
Lin Zhixing was about to follow him in, but He Yanchen turned around and said, "I'll go in and take a look myself. You don't have to come."
As a doctor, Lin Zhixing has no fear of places like the morgue.
But she chose to stay outside.
Only He Yanchen went in.
Lin Zhixing had just stood outside for a while when Zhuang Yecheng and another deputy director rushed over.
When they learned that He Yanchen was alone inside, they both stopped.
Zhuang Yecheng whispered, "We've already called the police. The nanny and the caregiver haven't been released yet, and no one else is allowed into the ward. We're waiting for the police to arrive."
In any case, Zhou Qiaohua's death was not strictly speaking a natural death.
You can't follow the normal death process.
Lin Zhixing asked quietly, "Are the nanny and the caregiver suspicious?"
The doctor opposite, who had participated in the rescue, recalled the situation and shook his head, saying, "I don't think so. When we entered the ward, the old man's gesture was to unplug the AC power. The artificial heart is completely powered by batteries..."
"Human life is at stake. Don't make random guesses."
Zhuang Yecheng scolded the doctor with a stern face.
He didn't mean to scold the doctor, but He Yanchen was in a high position and his behavior was unpredictable, so he should be careful in everything.
The doctor lowered his head and stopped talking.
He Yanchen only stayed in the morgue for a few minutes before coming out.
Zhuang Yecheng immediately said, "Mr. He, the hospital has called the police, and they will investigate the matter thoroughly."
He Yanchen didn't say anything at first.
After walking for a while, the man stopped and said to Zhuang Yecheng, "No need."
"What's not needed?"
Zhuang Yecheng didn't quite understand.
"My mother cannot be cremated during the police investigation. She has suffered a lot from illness over the years, and I don't want her to be unable to rest in peace after her death."
He Yanchen looked at Zhuang Yecheng and said, "Tell the police not to investigate. After my mother's body is cremated, I will bury her ashes together with my father's."
"Okay, I understand." Zhuang Yecheng paused and said, "The old lady had an artificial heart surgery before she died. If she is cremated, she will need surgery to remove the artificial heart."
"Can."
He Yanchen said.
Lin Zhixing, who had been silent all the way, finally spoke: "Let me do the surgery."
She was the one who placed the artificial heart, so it would be most appropriate for her to take it out.
Even the bodies of deceased people should be treated well.
He Yanchen looked at her and said "hmm".
-
The artificial heart removal surgery was scheduled for the morning.
Since it was a corpse, the operation did not occupy a professional operating room.
The only person performing the operation was Lin Zhixing.
Before Zhou Qiaohua passed away, her condition was already very bad.
The old man's eyes were calm at this time, and he looked like he was asleep.
Lin Zhixing carefully cut open the wound again along the previous incision, removed the artificial heart, and sutured the chest again.
She is the lead surgeon, and suturing is now done by her assistants.
This time, she's going to do it herself.
She performed all three of Zhou Qiaohua's heart surgeries in recent years.
Then this last time, she should be the one to finish it.
