Level Up Doctor - Chapter 345

One End, Another Beginning (3)

After saying goodbye, Miguel came down from the podium.

I couldn’t forgive the cowardly behavior he committed against his team CPR colleagues, but I also couldn’t deny that he looked lonely as he left.

He acknowledged his mistake and apologized to his team members, albeit belatedly.

That alone gave us a glimpse into Miguel’s basic personality.

There are too many people in the world who never admit their mistakes and only blame others.

Just like Benson or Parker.

The morning meeting and then the afternoon meeting ended successfully.

Choi Ki-seok went that way and found Rahul’s hospital room.

After receiving a helpless greeting from a couple in despair, I stood next to Rahul’s bed.

Rahul came all the way from India to visit MHC.

The child’s condition was still bad, and the couple’s faces were as dark as the child’s future.

“Today I want to tell you good news.”

“Joe…good news?”

Sanjay, who was sitting on the guardian’s bed with a downcast face, raised his eyes. Then he jumped up from his seat and grabbed his wife, Rai, by the arm.

“Dr. Choi, no way….”

“Yes. That is correct. A donor capable of performing a heart transplant has been found.”

“You’re not lying right now, are you? “You’re not kidding, are you?”

“Is that possible?”

“honey!”

“honey!”

Sanjay and Rai shed tears as they hugged each other, and Ki-Seok Choi’s eyes became moist as he watched them.

He watched the couple’s heartache every single day.

I was able to deeply empathize with the overwhelming emotions the couple must be feeling at this moment.

“Thank you Dr. Choi. thank you.”

“I’m really sorry for being irritated with Dr. Choi for no reason.”

The couple repeatedly bowed their heads and said a word to each other.

“I didn’t do anything. A miracle happened because the two of you patiently did not give up hope. And…”

“And?”

“If you really want to say thank you, I hope you find someone other than me.”

Ki-Seok Choi told the story of the Gerard couple who allowed an organ transplant.

There is a patient in the neurosurgery ward who was declared brain dead after a car accident.

The fact that the patient’s parents decided to have an organ transplant for Rahul.

“Ah… Are the couple who visited our hospital room last time helping Rahul?”

“That’s right.”

“I need to go right away.”

“Thank you Mr. Choi.”

The couple greeted Choi Ki-seok and hurriedly left the hospital room.

‘The problem starts now.’

Choi Ki-seok watched the couple’s back and muttered to himself.

Heart transplant surgery that will be performed after a series of tests.

The hearts of the parents donating the organs and the future of the parents and children receiving the transplant were at stake in that surgery.

There is no surgery in the world that is not important, but it was obvious that this surgery would have a special weight.

Jiiiing.

Just as I was about to check on the remaining patients, Callfon trembled and interrupted me.

I checked the number and it was Lucy, a neurosurgeon.

Are you contacting me to discuss what happened yesterday?

I couldn’t help but laugh bitterly at the situation of being questioned and then being questioned instead.

“This is thoracic surgeon Kiseok Choi.”

[Mr. Choi, do you have time right now? Can you move up to neurosurgery quickly?]

“Yes. “I’ll go up right away.”

Choi Ki-seok immediately visited the neurosurgery department.

“Mr. Choi is absolutely crazy. “Are you saying I’m crazy?”

When Choi Ki-seok entered the medical office, Lucy got up from her seat and approached her, and Choi Ki-seok tilted his head with a puzzled expression.

Lucy making a fuss was unusual.

“Are you saying I did something crazy yesterday?”

“no. That’s not it, there was an absolutely amazing incident yesterday. “Even now, when I think about that time, I get goosebumps on my skin.”

“Please speak in an easy-to-understand way.”

“Mr. Choi’s reasoning was correct. “The culprit in the family gas inhalation incident is none other than Victor.”

Lucy’s words that Victor was the culprit hit Ki-Seok Choi mercilessly on the back of the head.

Choi Ki-seok blinked in shock and couldn’t close his mouth.

Yesterday, for the first time, I had the unfortunate experience of failing to interrogate.

As a result, Victor went crazy.

But when Lucy pointed out Victor as the culprit, I couldn’t help but be dumbfounded.

“What do you mean?”

“You remember this, right?”

Lucy took out a small pen from her gown pocket.

This is the recording device that Ki-Seok Choi prepared yesterday.

Because Victor was making such a fuss, I had completely forgotten about the recorder until now. It seems that the recorder fell into the isolation room during the struggle with Victor.

“I brought Victor’s confession with the intention of recording it. “I guess that’s the problem, right?”

“Cancer. “It has become a very important issue.”

Lucy nodded vigorously and handed the tape recorder to Ki-Seok Choi. Then, I sat in front of the chair and opened the tape recorder file that I had previously moved.

[Sigh… That kid is quite perceptive. I almost told you everything. I was unlucky from the first time I saw it. Well, I’m glad it went well.]

..[Dad is also a problem. I asked to borrow just seven thousand dollars, no more, no less, but they refused, so my family is like this. The bastard called older brother is always nagging me about gambling. If I had lent him just seven thousand dollars, I wouldn’t have done something like that… In fact, my father said I didn’t want to do that either.] ..

[Well, there’s no use in regretting it now. Anyway, the idiotic psychiatrist believes that I have a mental illness, and if I just give some insurance money to the loan sharks, it’s my world. Hehehe.]

After the recording file was finished playing, Lucy and Choi Ki-seok looked at each other as if they had made a promise.

The fallen tape recorder perfectly recorded Victor’s muttering to himself.

Leaving a decisive clue that he was the culprit of this incident….

“I was just wondering if it was possible, but it turned out to be the same. Mr. Choi was right. “This scumbag killed his family and was acting like he had a mental illness.”

“If we hand over the recording file to the police, the case will be easily solved.”

“I’ll take care of this guy. “I should take this opportunity to let you know clearly whether I am an idiot or not.”

Lucy’s eyes were filled with venom.

It seems that he was stimulated by Victor’s words that treated him like a fool.

“If Lucy wants to do that, go ahead and do it.”

“Hmm. And I’m sorry for being so irritated yesterday. “I didn’t mean to do that.”

“no. “It is true that I made a mistake.”

Ki-seok Choi finished talking with Lucy and left the medical office.

The saying that a cow catches a mouse while backing away is perfect for the current situation.

Because Victor’s crime was unintentionally revealed.

As he was returning to the medical office, he suddenly remembered a case that had occurred in the United States in the past.

A real estate mogul who was accused of murdering his ex-wife and girlfriend once appeared on a reality show.

He preached on the show that he was innocent, which made people less suspicious of him.

The problem was discovered when he went to the bathroom.

[Of course I killed them all.]

The man forgot that he was wearing a microphone and admitted his charges in the bathroom.

Naturally, this led to a re-investigation into the case and he ended up in court once again.

Could it be said to be a typical case of ‘the bird listens to what you say during the day and the mouse listens to what you say at night’?

“You have to use your heart kindly. “Just rot in a cell for the rest of your life.”

Choi Ki-seok threw his weight at Victor.

* * *

Five days have passed since then.

Choi Ki-seok’s training life went smoothly, unlike other times.

The twists and turns that he originally had to go through ended up going through someone else.

The person who suffered the most during this time was Benson.

Benson was disciplined and had his leave cut for arbitrarily altering medical records and concealing the cause of a patient’s death.

Originally, he should have been fired right away, but Vice Hospital Director Parker used his strength and was barely able to keep his position.

However, a second crisis came when Jane, with the help of Choi Ki-seok and Gail, filed a lawsuit against Benson.

That wasn’t all.

Benson lost badly in a bet he made with Kwon Il-soo about the course of Jun Syndrome. This is because the patient’s ribcage returned to normal through new surgery using a retractor.

“…There was something like this. “Benson, you won’t say anything else now, will you?”

Yasada, who stood on the podium at the morning meeting two days ago, called Benson to his side and sneered at him.

“Now, let’s watch pediatric thoracic surgeon Benson’s Rambo show.”

“….”

Benson’s face turned red at Yasada’s words.

He glanced at the staff members, whose eyes were brightly open, and then stretched out his hands in the air.

He pretended to hold a gun.

After hesitating for a while, a small voice came out of Benson’s mouth.

“Benson what are you doing? Did you not load it properly? “I can’t hear the gunshots?”

At Yasada’s point, Benson’s face swelled up as if it was about to explode. In the end, Benson ran out of the conference room without being able to imitate Rambo properly.

After he disappeared, the staff members each burst out laughing.

Benson wasn’t the only one who suffered.

Victor, who murdered his father and older brother, also had to pay for his crimes.

As the recording file was passed on to the police, the investigation accelerated.

The police summoned Victor and questioned him about his crime, while also finding a loan shark connected to him.

Through this, we captured the circumstances that a loan shark was involved in manipulating this case and that Victor said he would repay the debt with insurance money.

At this point, Victor could no longer deny the crime.

In the end, Victor confessed his crime and was sent to a detention center.

While turbulent events were taking place around him, Choi Ki-seok concentrated on his teacher’s new surgery.

Now, just one more hurdle has to be overcome and the surgery is complete.

With that thought in mind, we began to improve by finding a way to perform surgery more accurately and quickly.

As time passed, the day of Rahul’s heart transplant surgery arrived.

* * *

“Good!”

Choi Ki-seok shouted in joy and clenched his fists.

Finally, my teacher’s new surgery was completed.

The notification that rang in my ears after the surgery was over.

[The surgery has ended. The final rank for surgery is A.]

That kept ringing in my ears.

Of course, the work wasn’t completely done.

First, the surgery had to be recognized as a cadaver in front of the teacher, and then the new surgery had to be made known to other doctors through live surgery.

Nevertheless, it cannot be denied that the biggest hurdle has been overcome.

Choi Ki-seok stood at the window and suppressed his excitement.

Today is Rahul’s heart transplant surgery day. I was so overwhelmed that I couldn’t put pressure on an important surgery.

Taking a deep breath, he checked the time and found the thoracic surgery ward.

But my cell phone, which I had kept in my gown, trembled.

The moment I checked the number, a smile spread across my face.

“Good morning, Seolhwa. Is that good night?”

[that’s right. Good night from my perspective. By the way, what happened to that?]

“What?”

[I saw an interview at ABD broadcasting station earlier. The one that was really hot at the end?]

“You’ve already seen it. “I was planning to tell you later.”

Choi Ki-seok’s face heated up as he remembered that time.

[fool. You have to tell me that quickly.]

Jeong Seol-hwa chuckled and continued.

“I love you too, baby.”
