Healing Doctor

Chapter 112 Surgery in a Dream

"Such a simple surgery, and you're the only one in the entire Second Affiliated Hospital who's confident you can handle it? You're really impressive as the director." Ji Xiang said sarcastically, then turned and stepped off the stage.

The surgery is over, the "superior doctor's gaze" skill time is over, and Ji Xiang has returned to normal.

Damn it!

I definitely won't use it next time. Ji Xiang really can't stand this skill, which was created based on the template of a system NPC when he was young.

Is this some kind of stupid thing to do?!

If you were an academician, it wouldn't matter what you said, but is it really appropriate for a junior resident to say something that's so incredibly sarcastic?

It's definitely not suitable.

But as soon as Ji Xiang turned around, he was shocked to see a huge number of 4212 experience points appear above Director Zhao's head.

Does this work too?

Ji Xiang took off his lead apron and casually threw it on the ground with a "thud".

"Director Zhao is a promising young man," Ji Xiang thought, his "ideas" resurfacing. As for the promise of a "next time," he completely forgot about it, like something out of the Mariana Trench.

If he wants to learn, I can teach him.

The "Preaching" quest has been hanging there, and currently only General Manager Wu can contribute experience points to him. Ji Xiang wouldn't mind if there were a few more.

However, what Ji Xiang cares about right now is not this matter, but the reward the system will give him for completing the task.

[Urgent task: Complete an important procedure that has gone unnoticed.]

Task: Perform an interventional embolization hemostasis procedure.

Task duration: 6 hours.

Task Rewards: 10000 experience points, 30 surgery points, random skill... Please wait, system is drawing.

Ji Xiang stood still, waiting for the system to extract his skill.

Although Ji Xiang always complained inwardly about the stupid skill "Superior Doctor's Gaze," he gradually got used to it and always wanted to use it.

This is especially true now that there is no shortage of surgical points.

"Next time for sure," Ji Xiang said this countless times.

The skills are still useful, and with Ji Xiang experiencing the enhanced effect of the passive skill - Deathwing during today's surgery, he is even more excited.

[Special Skill - Fusion...]

The system panel was like a typewriter, typing out word by word. Ji Xiang was overjoyed the moment he saw the special skill.

He must have won the grand prize, he thought to himself as he glanced at his luck score.

However, the system panel only displayed the word "融" (rong) before freezing, and then the words gradually faded away until they disappeared.

Uh, what's going on?

Passive Skill: Hybridization.

Under the effect of this skill, the level of hybridization surgery increases by 1.

Hybridization?! What is this? Ji Xiang was stunned, and the first person that came to mind was Grandpa Yuan Longping.

Want to change careers?

"host……"

The surgery was over, and the "superior doctor's gaze" had ended. Director Zhao wanted to call out "Director," but as soon as he spoke, he immediately realized something was wrong.

He stared blankly at Ji Xiang for a moment, then at the patient, lost in deep confusion.

Ji Xiang walked out of the operating room and stood quietly in the corner, trying his best to hide himself.

"Dr. Xiao Ji, you've studied interventional surgery? When did you learn it? You're doing a really good job," Director Liu asked in surprise.

Ji Xiang's explanation was wrong, and his lack of explanation was also wrong, so he could only lower his head and softly say "Mmm".

[The gaze of the senior doctor] That's the downside, but Ji Xiang knows he can have a go anytime.

By observing Mr. Wu's attitude towards him, Ji Xiang vaguely guessed that although the effect of this skill had a time limit, it would accumulate to some extent each time.

I don't believe Director Liu can withstand it.

"And this is...?"

Director Zhao walked out with a puzzled look, his gaze towards Ji Xiang extremely complicated.

He had completely sobered up, but Director Zhao couldn't forget what Ji Xiang had said during the skill-training period.

"Ji Xiang, Dr. Ji," Director Liu introduced, "one of our department's resident physicians."

"Uh..." Director Zhao stared blankly at Ji Xiang.

Director Zhao felt ashamed. He still remembered what had just happened. He must have been drunk.

"By the way, you heard about the grand competition? Dr. Ji broke the record over a hundred times."

Director Zhao's gaze toward Ji Xiang became even more complicated, and he felt a wave of hangover rising in his heart.

"Director Liu, let's send the patient back." Director Zhao rubbed his head. "I'm still feeling a bit unwell. We can discuss the details tomorrow."

Director Liu left with his people and the patient, leaving behind Director Zhao and Professor Ma from the Interventional Radiology Department.

"Ma Liang, what you just did..." Director Zhao asked, then stopped abruptly.

To be more specific, he couldn't explain it clearly either.

Professor Ma was also bewildered. Recalling the glance he had just received from that young man, he felt that Director Zhao had just had a fight with his wife yesterday and looked fierce. He knew he wouldn't dare to utter a sound.

How could you mistake a resident trainee for Director Zhao?

Director Zhao was clearly standing right behind me at that time.

strangeness.

Professor Ma remained silent, and Director Zhao also remained silent; the whole thing seemed like a ghost story.

After a long silence, Professor Ma asked awkwardly, "Director, why did you drink so much today?"

"Sigh, don't even mention it." Director Zhao sighed. "When we were drinking and talking about those who left, I couldn't help but speak up. Back then, everyone fought so fiercely, but now, looking back, it's all just a thing of the past."

"Maybe everyone had drunk a bit too much. When I cried, everyone else started crying too, like they were at a funeral."

Director Zhao's feelings were extremely complicated as he recalled all the events of the day.

"Director Zhao, I'm leaving now. Please close the door behind you when you leave." The technician changed his clothes and saw Director Zhao squatting on the ground. He forcibly suppressed the urge to hand him a tissue.

Director Zhao suddenly remembered something. He waved his hand, shooed the technician away, and went to the control panel.

"Director, what's wrong with you...?"

"I just remembered, the surgery was performed by that resident!" Director Zhao said at full speed, cold sweat already visible on his forehead.

Although he remembered the surgery as going well, he was dizzy from drinking and, combined with the effect of the "superior doctor's gaze," he couldn't quite recall the surgical process now.

Please don't let anything go wrong; Director Zhao is extremely worried.

Open the surgical video and watch it from the beginning. Before long, Director Zhao sat blankly in front of the computer, motionless.

"Director, this surgery is... amazing!" Professor Ma rubbed his eyes vigorously, unable to believe that such a surgery was performed by that resident trainee.

Indeed, the surgery was performed flawlessly; not only could Professor Ma not do it, but Director Zhao couldn't either.

Director Zhao stared blankly at the screen, the scenes of him standing below the stage, "giving guidance" or being guided, after drinking just moments before lingering in his mind, seemingly real yet unreal, and he couldn't distinguish between reality and illusion.

"It must be a dream from being drunk," Director Zhao thought to himself.

I'm taking this too seriously; even my drunken dreams are about having surgery!
