Chapter 87 Let Me Try
The troops were worried about causing panic, so they announced to the public that three suspicious-looking pirates were spotted by Xia Mi when they came ashore.
"Is he seriously injured?"
How could Xia Mi care about the pirates? She asked while taking her bag and preparing to go to the hospital.
"It's not serious. They were just grazed by gunfire. One of the less skilled people was shot and is currently in the hospital undergoing surgery."
Xia Mi walked out with her bag and noticed Li Jiajia. "Are you still going to the hospital? If not, I'll leave."
"Go, I'll come to you after delivering the message to the troops, you have to take me back."
"Get in the car." Xia Mi pushed the car out and Li Jiajia followed behind.
After Li Jiajia got in the car, "Xia Mi, you haven't locked the door yet."
"Don't lock it. There are no thieves in the family compound." Xia Mi pedaled towards the hospital.
When they arrived at the hospital, Xia Mi didn't even lock the car. She just parked the car and walked inside, with Li Jiajia leading the way.
"Captain Huo, your injury is not suitable for standing for a long time. Can I get you a stool?"
Huo Jingchen shook his head and raised his hand to refuse, "Doctor He, go and do your thing. I know my body, and the abrasions are not serious."
"But... Captain Huo, you have several cuts on your legs. How about you go and take care of them first?"
"Doctor He, you are such an honest man, why don't you just give it to me?"
Li Jiajia was holding a wooden stool in her hand, and her voice echoed in the corridor of the operating room.
Huo Jingchen turned around and was stunned for a moment when he saw Xia Mi. He understood after seeing Li Jiajia.
The news spread so fast, it would be a waste of Li Jiajia's talent to stay in the hospital. She should go to work at the Intelligence Bureau.
Li Jiajia didn't dare to take the bench, so she quickly handed it to Xia Mi and asked her to deliver it.
"Standing and waiting won't provide any help to the people inside."
Xia Mi walked over and put down the stool, and noticed that there were many scratches on his thighs. The wounds were shallow and all smooth. It was not difficult to guess that they were traces left by a fight on the reef.
"sit down."
Huo Jingchen sat down obediently, but he still felt uneasy and his eyes stayed on the door of the operating room.
Xia Mi turned around and looked at Li Jiajia, and was about to ask her for something to clean the wound.
"I understand. Just wait." Li Jiajia understood.
Time passed minute by minute. Xia Mi disinfected and bandaged Huo Jingchen's wound and waited outside for half an hour, but the door of the operating room did not open.
"Hello Jiang Weidong, hello Instructor Li."
Dr. He heard footsteps behind him, turned around and saw his leader coming, so he quickly greeted him.
"No one has come out yet?"
Jiang Weidong had a dark complexion and a sullen face. The pressure from his superiors made the air around him several degrees colder.
Li Weimin looked at Li Jiajia, "It's been almost three hours, why hasn't he come out yet?"
"Da He was shot in the abdomen. It took some time to stop the bleeding. The bullet should have been removed by now. Director He hasn't come out yet, which means the problem is still under control. Dad, Uncle Jiang, please wait a little longer."
About ten minutes later, a nurse opened the door of the operating room and came out.
The nurse took off her mask and said, "Captain Chu is not in good condition. The bullet ruptured a blood vessel in his right kidney, causing secondary bleeding. He needs a blood transfusion. Director He just tried to repair it for a long time but failed. It is very likely that one of his kidneys will have to be removed."
"Do you have anyone with type B or O blood?"
"I am." Huo Jingchen was the first to raise his hand. "I am"
Doctor He, who had been accompanying him the whole time, quickly refused on his behalf, "Captain Huo, you can't do that. You just lost a lot of blood. Your body can't handle a blood transfusion."
"Let me do it." Li Jiajia raised her hand, "I also have type B blood. Let's go over and draw blood."
The nurse nodded, took off her gloves, and left with Li Jiajia.
After the person passed away, Jiang Weidong asked Dr. He, "Can a person still survive if one kidney is removed?"
"Okay." Doctor He nodded. Seeing Jiang Weidong's relieved expression, the following words stuck in his throat.
"But people can no longer continue to serve in the army. Next, they must either transfer to civilian jobs or retire..."
Xia Mi said what Dr. He hadn't finished saying, "People only have one kidney to maintain their daily lives. They can't do strenuous exercise, and they have to strictly control their diet. The probability of getting sick in the future will be much higher than that of ordinary people."
Xia Mi paused, "But fortunately, I was able to save my life."
After the popular science lecture, everyone present, except Dr. He, was so shocked that they were speechless.
Huo Jingchen lowered his eyes and remained silent, his expression normal, making it impossible for anyone to detect any clues. Anguish and shame formed a net that tightly wrapped around his heart.
"My aunt was a surgeon abroad. I learned a lot from her and listened to many case analyses since I was a child."
Xia Mi knew they would not be reassured, so she promised, "I won't go on stage, I'll just watch from the side, what if I can provide help?"
Huo Jingchen raised his head and looked at her in surprise.
"Is this... possible?" Jiang Weidong looked embarrassed and reminded Xia Mi, "Xia Mi, this is an operation, a real operation. I'm afraid it won't work just relying on what your aunt said. It's better not to go in and cause trouble for the doctors."
"Yes, Xia Mi, this is a life-threatening operation." Li Weimin also joined the persuasion team.
"I agree, leaders. You may not know that Teacher Xia is also a teacher in our entire school. We have all learned a method of first aid from her before."
"Besides that, Teacher Xia's CPR techniques are also very professional and standard. I think why don't we let her go in and take a look?"
Jiang Weidong and Li Weimin were both stunned.
"I agree too." Huo Jingchen agreed.
He knew her. Xia Mi was not a promiscuous person.
Jiang Weidong had no choice but to agree.
Doctor He took Xia Mi to change clothes and do disinfection work, and finally she was taken in by the nurse who had just come.
Xia Mi entered the operating room, which was filled with the smell of instruments and disinfectant, with only a faint smell of blood.
There was a bullet lying on a tray nearby, surrounded by blood.
Director He caught sight of Xia Mi's figure from the corner of his eye. "Comrade Xia, how did you get in?"
"Director He, let me come in and take a look. Don't worry, I won't do anything rash." Xia Mi stood closer, observed the situation, and soon found the problem.
Xia Mi carefully observed Director He's technique and found that his hands were shaking slightly when he used the vascular clamp, but the frequency of shaking was not high.
You need a steady hand when suturing blood vessels.
The operation lasted nearly three hours. Director He was already in his fifties, so it was normal that he couldn't keep up with the pace.
"Director, your hand..."
Doctor Cheng at the side spoke up, obviously noticing this situation as well.
Director He's forehead was already sweating from anxiety, and his hands were shaking even more severely due to nervousness. Suturing blood vessels is a delicate job, and as the amount of bleeding increases, it cannot be delayed.
"Director He, how about letting me try? My aunt is a surgeon who returned from the United States. I learned from her how to do multiple sutures, such as end-to-end suture, end-to-side suture, continuous suture, and interrupted suture. Although I don't have a certificate, I have learned it and passed my aunt's test."
Regardless of whether these people believed it or not, Xia Mi saw that if this continued, not only would she lose a kidney, she might even lose her life.
"If anything goes wrong because of me, I am willing to take all the responsibility."
