Level Up Doctor - Chapter 261

Conversion Strike (7)

Tread. Trudging.

Matthew walked quickly to Parker’s office.

A day has passed since Choi Ki-seok exploded the bomb.

Countless arrows were raining down on him. I couldn’t come to my senses because it was all coming from the media, Mayjo’s colleagues, college classmates, patients, etc.

‘I have to do whatever I can.’

Matthew bit his lip without realizing it.

If things continued like this, I might have been fired from my professorship, let alone my job as head chief of neurosurgery, and I might have been criminally prosecuted for violating the medical law.

Even if social justice exists, corruption connections also clearly exist.

Maybe there is a hole through which to escape.

‘Damn you son of a bitch.’

I suddenly thought of Choi Ki-seok and gritted my teeth. I never dreamed that I would be stabbed in the back by a resident on surgical rotation.

If we get out of this crisis, Choi Ki-seok will definitely be kicked out.

Jump up!

Matthew opened the door and entered Parker’s office.

“What are you doing without knocking?”

Parker, who was sitting at his work desk, frowned.

“I’m sorry. The situation is urgent. I’m getting more anxious since you haven’t answered the phone since yesterday.”

“Ah. You mean yesterday’s phone call? I didn’t answer it on purpose.”

Parker chuckled and continued.

“I have nothing to do with you anymore.”

“Hey, I’m Matthew! I’m one of the top three brain tumor doctors in the continental United States. Do you think my value will be ruined this easily?”

“That’s right. You’re done now.”

“Okay… it’s over?”

“Yes. You’re the only one who can’t accept that fact. This is your first time experiencing something like this. The game was over from the moment Mr. Choi played the recording.”

Matthew lowered his head at Parker’s words.

He remained silent for a while, then knelt down and put his hands together.

“Please. Please save me just this once. Please. If you save me, I will become your dog from now on. You can bark whenever you want.”

“That’s lame. Is this the Matthew I know?”

There was a hint of disdain in Parker’s gaze.

“It’s been a long time since I lost my pride. Please, Parker. Please! Help me.”

“Stop acting like an asshole and get out of here!”

Parker’s shouting filled the room.

Matthew left the office with his shoulders slumped.

Two hours later.

The executive meeting began.

The executive meeting is the highest level meeting attended by the head chiefs of each department and department-level clinic management executives.

Attendees sat at a ‘L’ shaped table, and the vice hospital director, who was conducting the meeting, was seated in the center of the table.

“Matthew, you did something stupid.”

Deputy hospital director Christopher looked at Matthew with a disapproving expression.

Currently, Matthew was quite close to Christopher.

What this means is that he has received the trust of the vice hospital director so far.

“I… I have nothing to say.”

“You have lowered the prestige of Meijo. A doctor is working with the police and forging diagnoses… What do the patients currently receiving treatment at Meijo think of Meijo?”

“sorry.”

“If I had known it was this bad, I would have kicked it out a long time ago. Tsk tsk tsk.”

Christopher proceeded with the meeting with a frown on his face.

The big and small things that happened at the clinic this month were introduced, followed by stories about ongoing projects.

The final step is the election of the long-awaited neurosurgery head chief.

“Well, I don’t know if we really need to do this, but we have to follow the procedure. Let’s start by raising our hands who support Lucas as the next head chief of neurosurgery.”

The attendees raised their hands in response to Christopher’s words.

Matthew glanced at the people who raised their hands and sighed.

There was no one on his side.

If Choi Ki-seok hadn’t held a press conference yesterday, the result might have been different…

“The doctors were unanimous, and even the eight steering committee members were unanimous. That’s amazing, Matthew. You set a new record for Mayjo. This record will probably last a lifetime. It won’t break.”

Christopher continued sarcastically.

“I prepared a small gift to celebrate your new record.”

“….”

“Get your work done and leave Meijo within this week. Well, if you need more time, I can give you more time, but I guess you probably don’t want it. Use the remaining time to find a good lawyer.”

“….”

“And Lucas. Congratulations on becoming the next Head Chief of Neurosurgery.”

“thank you.”

As Lucas bowed his head, applause erupted in the conference room.

After the executive meeting is over.

Christopher spoke with Parker in his office.

“Matthew. I thought he was worth raising, but I never thought he would disappoint me like this. I guess I’m getting older too. The way I look at people isn’t what it used to be.”

“Vice Hospital Director, then don’t say anything. The reason why Meijo’s sales doubled was because of your excellent ability to find talent. This time, you just had bad luck.”

“You have an eye for talent… Are you talking about people like you?”

“I’m honored that you included me.”

“Anyway…”

Christopher continued, rubbing his chin.

“What about Ki Seok Choi, who is training in neurosurgery? I’ve heard a lot of rumors, but I’ve never seen him in person.”

In his opinion, Choi Ki-seok is a mysterious being.

Even though he is a new resident, he has medical skills comparable to that of most fellows. In addition, major accidents always occurred where he was present.

What made Christopher pay more attention to Ki-Seok Choi was the Matthew case, which was concluded today.

Ki-Seok Choi recorded the conversation he had with Matthew and struck the final blow. His appearance gave off the air of a political strategist rather than a doctor.

“He’s one of the people I’m coveting. Didn’t I ask the Deputy Chief of Staff a few weeks ago to nominate Matthew to be the next Head of Neurosurgery?”

“Of course I remember.”

“Actually, it was an operation to get Mr. Choi into the emergency medicine department. The plan was to ruin Mr. Choi’s training process by using Matthew, who became the head chief, as the leader.”

“I guess it’s worth it.”

Christopher nodded slightly.

“Do your work properly. If you are an ally, you are dependable, but if you are an enemy, you are the type of person who gets tired. I trust you, but things don’t always go as you want. Even Matthew got stabbed in the back.”

“Yes. I will keep that in mind.”

“Then let’s go. I have a next meeting.”

After sending Parker away, Christopher leaned back on the sofa.

“Kiseok Choi Ra….”

* * *

That afternoon.

Ki-seok Choi just finished scrubbing and headed to the break room.

I was in charge of the first assistant for a six-hour surgery. Due to the effect of the patient’s wishes, the physical burden was less, but the mental power was greatly consumed.

My head felt like an empty can.

I couldn’t think, I couldn’t think of anything.

As I drank the ionic beverage and rested, my consciousness gradually became clearer.

‘I think I’ll get through neurosurgery safely.’

He opened the status window and smiled.

After successfully completing yesterday’s press conference, Matthew’s reputation plummeted. The reputation reduction required for the Kingmaker mission was 3 levels, but it was reduced by a whopping 10 levels.

Matthew’s current reputation is -3.

To put it bluntly, you have become a beggar.

In any case, since the mission was completed successfully, early promotion was as good as earned.

Now all that’s left is the conjoined twin surgery and Jeong Jin-myeong’s treatment.

Choi Ki-seok finished his break and visited the morgue. Jane was sitting in a chair outside the morgue.

“Hello Jane.”

“Ah, Dr. Choi! Thank you.”

Jane jumped up and grabbed his hands.

“Thanks to Dr. Choi, I think my husband will be able to close his eyes in peace. If the police had gone ahead with the autopsy and found the cause of death to be illness, I wouldn’t have been able to bear it.”

“I feel the same way as Jane. I tried to prevent unfair things from happening, and the results were good.”

“Yes. Thank you so much…”

Jane was sobbing that she couldn’t speak, and Choi Ki-seok comforted her shoulders.

“It’s all over now. Neither the police nor Matthew can withdraw from this case. Since the case has become such a hot topic, he will receive a clear punishment.”

“….”

“You’ve had a hard time.”

“Yes. I think I’m now ready to let my husband go in peace.”

“It will be difficult, but I believe we will overcome it.”

Tiring!

[You have completed the hidden mission ‘Confronting Injustice’. As a reward,

we provide 1000 P.P. and ten Limit Stones and a random stat-up book.]

Choi Ki-seok left the morgue after comforting Jane. And while moving to the ward, I used a random stat-up book.

Hehehe.

I couldn’t open my eyes for a moment as white light emanated from the status window.

Tiring!

[Surgical treatment level has increased by one level.]

[Surgical treatment: 7 —- > Surgical treatment: 8]

A smile appeared on his lips as he checked the notification.

The most desired stat has been leveled up.

If the surgical procedure was level 8, it could be considered to be at the level of an acceptable fellow or professor.

Suddenly, I wondered if I would receive good rewards for doing good things.

While I was thinking about this and that, I returned to the neurosurgery ward.

“Mr. Choi. Look at me for a moment.”

Lucas, who was at the end of the hallway, spotted Ki-Seok Choi and motioned to him.

Choi Ki-seok took a seat in his office and looked at Lucas blankly.

A bright expression that I have never seen before.

It was easy to guess what happened in the morning.

“Congratulations on becoming Head Chief of Neurosurgery.”

“What… what? I didn’t even tell you… how did you know?”

“How could you not know? The Head Chief’s expression says it all.”

“It’s obvious. I tried to hide it as much as possible.”

Lucas continued speaking slowly.

“This is the first thing I’ve told you about your promotion. Your help has helped me a lot in coming here.”

“I had help, but it was more the Head Chief’s cleverness.”

“Hahaha. That’s very nice to hear. Today is a happy day, so I’ll enjoy it without being shy.”

“If you don’t mind, I’d like to hear what happened during today’s meeting.”

“There’s nothing you can’t do.”

Lucas told Choi Ki-seok what happened at the executive meeting, and Choi Ki-seok listened carefully.

The direction of development was not different from what he expected.

“By the way, if there’s anything you want, just tell me. I’ll give you anything. If I’ve been helped, it’s my duty to reward you.”

“If you say so, I won’t decline. I want to get promoted early.”

“It’s an early promotion… It’s a shame because I want to spend more time with you. But I can’t help it. Everyone knows that your goal is thoracic surgery.”

“Thank you for your understanding.”

“I promise you right here. Even if heaven and earth split, I will give you an early promotion.”

As soon as Lucas spoke, a notification rang.

Tiring!

[You have obtained the new buff Unbreakable Vow.]

[You can use the Hier system through Lucas’ full support.]

“Shall we stop talking and get up soon? There’s only a week left for the conjoined twins’ surgery.”

“Yes.”

The two left the office and headed to the operating room.

A week had passed.

Choi Ki-seok, who successfully concluded the Freed case, put all his effort into the conjoined twins’ surgery.

First, he only practiced the surgery. I never missed a single day.

When I had time, I watched videos or practiced in the training room.

Although all the training was done on models, I always assumed reality and was fully prepared.

As time passed, the day of the conjoined twin surgery arrived. come.
