Chapter 752 Textbook-level techniques
Although this corner of the restaurant was packed with people, it was extremely quiet. Everyone seemed to dare only breathe lightly, as if they were afraid that a breath would scare Ming Chenggang.
Her light pink shirt was splattered with a lot of blood, but she didn't care about that at all. She kept her hand calmly on the fat man's pulse. Time passed by minute by minute, and I could clearly feel that time was passing very slowly at this moment. I don't know about others, but I was worried about the two people on the ground.
Looking at the time, it was no more than five minutes until the ambulance arrived, but these five minutes were really hard to endure. A group of people watched the fat man breathing weakly, as if he couldn't breathe either.
Finally, the sound of an ambulance siren came closer and closer, and several emergency personnel carrying a stretcher ran in.
The leading emergency doctor asked loudly as he entered the room: "The patient is..." But before he finished asking, he soon saw the fat man lying on the ground, and the crowd automatically made way for him.
"Food is blocking the trachea and the patient's fat layer is too thick, so the Heimlich maneuver cannot be performed." Seeing the arrival of the emergency personnel, Ming Chenggang was obviously relieved and briefly explained the situation.
"That's a textbook cricothyroidotomy!" the accompanying emergency doctor exclaimed after examining the patient. "If it had been two minutes later, he would have been brain dead. This man is incredibly lucky. We're lucky to have met you."
"Are there any family members of the patients who would like to come with us?" The emergency doctor looked at the crowd.
The people eating at the same table with the fat man looked at each other and no one said anything. It was obvious that no one wanted to cause trouble.
The emergency doctor had no choice but to look at Ming Chenggang. "Little girl, you must be a doctor too. Could you please come with us? You've been on the scene the entire time and know the patient's condition best."
Ming Chenggang hesitated for a moment and said, "I'm still in the internship stage, so I'm not a doctor, but I can go with you."
"I'm a police officer, I'll go with you." Fang Dongmei was very protective of Ming Chenggang.
They both went to the meal and the melon that we all ate together, so it was not appropriate for Huang Tianyi and I to stay out of it.
Huang Tianyi and I looked at each other and said to them, "I'll drive you there."
"Well, let the ambulance go first. I'll come over after I pay the bill." I took out my cell phone and was about to pay the bill.
The restaurant manager, sweating profusely, quickly said, "No, no, your table hasn't been served yet. I'll give you a free meal. Thank you for your heroic act of saving lives just now."
I looked at the dishes on our table that had not yet been served, and accepted the restaurant manager's kindness without hesitation.
Ming Chenggang glanced at our table's food with some regret. The restaurant manager immediately and tactfully had someone pack up a plate of dim sum that had just been served to the neighboring table and hadn't been touched yet, and gave it to me to take with me. "Look, what happened in our restaurant has left you without a meal. Here, take this pack of dim sum with you for the journey."
Ming Chenggang's eyes lit up. This girl has been hungry for two meals. I didn't refuse. I thanked the restaurant manager and took it.
The ambulance roared along as it sped away. Vehicles along the way gave way one after another, and we followed closely behind and benefited somewhat from it.
However, the ambulance could ignore traffic lights, but our car couldn't. After just two intersections, we couldn't keep up.
"Student Huang, can you keep up?" Fang Dongmei watched the ambulance getting farther and farther away from us, feeling a little anxious. "Did they just say which hospital they were going to?"
"It's hard to keep up. I don't have enough points to deduct." Huang Tianyi raised an eyebrow at Fang Dongmei and said with a sly smile, "Do you have those police lights like in the movies? Take them out and install them on the roof of my car. I'll show you my skills."
Fang Dongmei was a little speechless. "Little sister, you also said it was in the movies. In fact, even if a non-police vehicle needs to be temporarily modified for a mission, it still needs to be approved. It's not like I can just carry a police light in my bag and take it out and install it at any time."
"If I run a red light, can you ask someone to clear it for me?" Huang Tianyi was still not giving up and continued to ask with a shameless face.
"No, I have to honestly deduct points even if I violate the traffic rules myself."
While Huang Tianyi was racking his brains to take advantage of the police, Ming Chenggang was sitting in the back seat, eating the box of steamed buns with his mouth full of oil. He didn't even bother to wipe the chopped green onions off his nose.
"Eat slowly, no one's going to snatch it from you." Fang Dongmei wiped the chopped green onions off the tip of her nose with a tissue, glanced at me again, and handed me another lunch box. "Mengmeng, you and your classmates should have some too. They smell pretty good."
"It's okay, you two can eat first. Tianyi and I had breakfast late, so we're not hungry yet."
It’s not that I was being polite to them. When I received the call from Fang Dongmei, I had just had breakfast with Huang Tianyi and was indeed not hungry.
"Then I won't be polite~" Ming Chenggang responded vaguely, and ate his fourth steamed bun. "I haven't eaten for two meals. If I don't eat any more, I'm going to have low blood sugar."
Fang Dongmei opened another box and started eating. "I went out so early this morning, I'm really hungry now." She took a bite and praised, "I have to say, the fried buns here are really good, even better than the Maobuwen in T City."
"Yeah," Huang Tianyi casually complained, "The Maobuwen these days is really not that great. It's expensive and tastes bad. It's a shame for this old brand."
I turned around and looked at Ming Chenggang, who was sucking his fingers. "Gangzi, you're amazing! I've seen that move you just made in American TV series, but this is the first time I've seen it in real life. By the way, what's that incision you made called?"
"Cricothyroidotomy." She had already finished six fried buns and seemed to be really hungry.
Her eyes sparkled, and she seemed in a good mood. "I learned this in anatomy class, but I never thought I'd actually use it."
"You are so amazing! You dare to slit someone's throat while you are still in internship!" Huang Tianyi gave her a thumbs up. Although the praise was sincere, I always felt that it sounded more like killing than saving people.
Ming Chenggang didn't care at all. She was already eating her seventh fried bun.
"Well, I didn't have time to think about that at the time," she said carelessly. "Didn't you see his pupils were starting to dilate? There was no way he could have waited until the ambulance arrived."
Fang Dongmei obviously felt that the word "throat slitting" sounded too cruel, so she said, "Little sister..."
"Just call me Tianyi. I'm not much younger than you. Don't call me little sister all the time. It sounds like I'm underage."
"Tianyi, that's called surgery, not cutting the throat. Can we praise people a little more professionally?" Fang Dongmei couldn't help but corrected him seriously.
"Okay~" Huang Tianyi readily agreed, "I'll remember the circumcision technique!"
