Chapter 251 Shengzao Grade 7 Pagoda
At 3:30 in the morning, Lu Ziqi returned to her office with a tired expression. She glanced at the three people who had been waiting for a long time. She swayed to her desk, grabbed a piece of pizza and stuffed it into her mouth. While eating, he said, "Big sister is tired to death. After 14 hours of surgery, I'm sleepy and hungry now. Even a pig can eat one."
"How was the operation?" Gu Tianyou said.
Lu Ziqi shook her head. He sighed and said, "Only a large portion of the tumors were removed, "However, those who grew up in the key areas did not dare to move. Actually, the current area of the wound is the most suitable for a second operation. Once the wound is sealed, the area covered by the cancer cells and the nerve roots are too tightly connected. It is very likely that there will be no chance to open the wound again. This child is too pitiful. I just hate that I am really helpless."
Gu Tianyou's heart skipped a beat and he asked, "Does that mean she will be staying here for a long time?"
"What's wrong? Is there a problem?" Lu Ziqi nodded.
Gu Tianyou said, "Nothing much. I'm just asking. You've been operating inside for 14 hours. Isn't the child's parents standing outside the operating room worried for 14 hours?" However, it is interesting to say that your physical strength is at the level of a professional sportsman, but the child's parents seem to be more energetic than you at the end of the operation. "
Lu Ziqi said, "These two people are very good, especially to this child."
Gu Tianyou had already recognized that the man was the one who assassinated Xu Muye. This very likely meant that the woman was Su Qing, the green fox woman. Hu Sanbian had once demanded that he be lenient with the couple, leaving at least one behind. Looks like it's mostly because of this sick little girl. "How old is this child?" He asked casually.
Lu Ziqi said, "Ten years old, It has been nine years since the onset of the disease at the age of one, This couple is not easy, The child hasn't had a single dose of chemo, "They are all imported proprietary medicines and some rare Chinese medicines. They cost several thousand yuan a day. When I first arrived, I saw that the couple were wearing casual clothes and eating. They didn't look like rich people. I originally planned to give them free hospitalization fees, but the man refused. He directly paid a million yuan deposit on the day of hospitalization. It's really unsightly."
It wasn't that he hadn't thought about notifying Dai Xiaolou and the others to come over and lay a net to catch him when he discovered this person earlier. However, when he thought of the couple waiting for the results of their daughter's operation, the two of them were not ordinary people. If the fight affected Ziqi's success or failure, this sin would be huge. On the other hand, he recklessly waited for news of the operation. His father loved him as much as a mountain. As long as the little girl was still hospitalized, this person would definitely not abandon his daughter and escape. There's no rush to catch him.
Gu Tianyou asked, "Is the child's parents also in the ward?"
Lu Ziqi yawned loudly and said impatiently, "The child is in an aseptic intensive care unit. How can he leave others to stay with him? These two couples usually stay alone outside the ward while the other stays outside in a hotel."
Gu Tianyou thought for a while and said, "It's already so late. Driving home, taking a shower and closing your eyes, you have to come back to work. That child has just undergone such a big operation. You probably won't be at ease. Why don't we just spend the night on these sofas in your office today?"
"This is my job," Lu Ziqi said. "Why would I implicate the three of you to suffer with me?"
Gu Tianyou said affectionately, "I feel the same way. Seeing that you are implicated, I wish I could cut two times instead of you."
Lu Ziqi pursed her lips and smiled, "Cut two times. What are you going to use? That knife of yours is more like killing people." At this point, he realized that he had made a mistake and immediately stuck out his tongue, not saying anything else. He yawned, "I'm sleepy. I'll go to bed first."
The little dragon girl occupied the only bed in the office. She lifted her head and opened her eyes in a daze. "Then I'll make room for you," she said.
Gu Tianyou smiled and said, "If you point inside, the three of us will squeeze together."
The little dragon girl said, "Good, good."
Jiang Fei got up from the sofa and staggered to the bedside. "What a fart. Move in. Sister Fei will sleep with you."
Lu Ziqi smiled and lay on the sofa. She greeted Gu Tianyou with her feet, "Hey, it's almost broken when you stand for a day. Come over and help me press a few times to help you sleep."
In the intensive care unit, Gu Tianyou put on a sterile suit and stood at the head of the bed. He looked through the MRI scans. No wonder Ziqi wasn't confident with her technique. In such a dense area of nerve roots, the tumor cells grew in a complex shape. Every move was calculated in microns. The requirements for hand feel were too high. For ordinary people, it was almost impossible to complete a task.
Gu Tianyou stood there for a long time, remembering every image in his mind and putting it back in place. Lu Ziqi had already completed the dissection of the cancer cells on the surface. The child had temporarily recovered his mobility, but in the long run, it was meaningless to do so. Cancer cells will continue to grow rapidly in areas with dense neurons, and she will soon lose all ability to move. Lu Ziqi was very clear about this situation, but she still did it. It seemed that she already thought that there was no chance of treating the child, so she hoped that the surgery would give her a last happy time.
If he were to operate now, he would have a 70% chance of completing the operation. Once the wound was sealed, he would probably have less than 50% chance of undergoing the operation. At this moment, he had to make a decision. Hu Sanbian did not want him to kill them all. Xu Muye also needed them to live. They were professional assassins, and even if they died, it would be difficult to deal with, let alone capture them alive? This question is like a lock that is hard to unlock. Perhaps this little girl is the key to unlock this lock.
Thinking of this, Gu Tianyou's gaze gradually became firm, and he had already made up his mind.
When he walked out of the ward, he saw the woman in the aisle staring at him nervously. Hu Sanbian demanded that he be lenient to the two parents-in-law, leaving at least one alive, apparently for the sake of the little girl in the ward. The child was ten years old. The Azurefox murder case started nine years ago. It just happened to be the beginning of the child's illness. The couple followed Hu Sanbian and washed their hands. After that, they encountered this catastrophe. They had no choice but to return to Jianghu and have to be used for money.
They may be forgiven, but their crimes are unforgivable.
This woman had a demonic temperament. She did not cry nor laugh, but also had a lively face, revealing a strange charm.
"Doctor, how is my daughter?" She asked in a trembling voice.
Gu Tianyou suppressed his impulse to make a move and said, "The operation was very successful. She can stand up very quickly, but this is only a temporary phenomenon. The tumor is growing too fast. If she falls down again, she will probably never be able to stand up unless she can undergo a second operation in the shortest time possible."
This woman was Su Qing. She asked hesitantly, "Who are you? Why haven't I seen you before?"
Gu Tianyou said, "I am the chief surgeon invited by our hospital for a second operation. Doctor Lu was already very tired after 14 hours of surgery yesterday, so she entrusted me with a second operation on this child."
Su Qing was stunned for a moment. Looking at Gu Tianyou's intern-like young face, he was somewhat suspicious, "Doctor Lu is a double-edged doctor. He is not confident that he can perform a second operation on my daughter. Why do you think you are confident that you can perform a second operation on my daughter?"
Gu Tianyou thought for a moment and said, "You have no other choice. My time is very precious. I will prepare for the operation within an hour. You have an hour to make a decision. Do you want to do it or not?" "I am the honorary director of this hospital, Miao Shifan, and I can prove this to you in front of your face," he added.
Su Qing had also heard of Miao Shifan's name. Actually, they had originally come for Miao Shifan's name, but when they came here, they heard that Miao Shifan was old and his stamina and stability were inferior to Director Lu. That was why they let Lu Ziqi be their daughter's attending doctor. Hearing Gu Tianyou mention Miao Shifan, she immediately believed him.
Gu Tianyou took out the phone in front of him. It was exactly four o'clock. Perhaps Teacher Miao was still in Uncle Geng's arms at this time. Gu Tianyou guessed wickedly that he had dialed the number. Without waiting for Miao Shifan to speak, he rushed to say, "I've decided to accept the operation you asked me for. I'll do it now. I ask you to immediately organize a few elite personnel to help me complete the operation."
Miao Shifan paused for a moment and said, "It's that spinal tumor that Ziqi can't do, right?"
Lu Ziqi would definitely ask Teacher Miao for advice before undergoing such a big operation. Gu Tianyou expected this, so he made this call without communicating well in advance. "Yes," he said. "I need you to organize a team of people to help me complete the operation as the honorary principal," he added.
Miao Shifan said, "I have seen the child's film before. The key point of the operation is the word'stable 'and'accurate'. Healthy cells and cancer cells are mixed between neurons. Healthy cell tissues should not be peeled off too much. Otherwise, there will be insufficient blood supply to nerve conduction tissues, and the sequelae will probably destroy the patient."
He continued, "At that same time, if the canc tissues are not peel clean, It's easy to relapse, "It's already hard enough to dissect the cancer cells in the densely packed nerve roots. It's even harder to do it precisely without harming healthy tissues. If someone else were to perform this operation, I wouldn't ask for anything. But this operation will be done by you. I hope to see a beautiful operation that will make people cry excitedly!"
Medical work is never a time-bound profession, and the safety of patients is the only working principle. Although it was very difficult to organize the operation at this time, Miao Shifan was the honorary director of the hospital and was one of the hospital's living signs. An hour was enough for him to organize the manpower.
An hour later, in front of the operating room, a few of Miao Shifan's former students looked at the young and unfamiliar surgeon with puzzled expressions. They were all incredulous. She couldn't help but wonder if the teacher was confused. Early in the morning, how could such a stupid young man do such a complicated operation that was almost impossible to succeed?
Gu Tianyou stood at the door. Her gaze stopped on Su Qing's face. Before putting on the sterile mask, '"There are no 100% successful surgeries in this world, but I can assure you that if I can't save your daughter, there won't be another person in this world who has the ability to do so. I can tell you with responsibility that there is only a 70% chance of surgery. I'm ready to take the risk. Before that, I need to make sure you're ready," he said expressionlessly.
Seventy percent sure. This was unheard of. The person who was most confident was Lu Ziqi, and he only dared to say that he was half confident. Seventy percent and five percent. This gap was simply too big. It was so big that Su Qing had no choice but to doubt the truth of what he said. However, she heard Miao Shifan's words clearly on the phone. She had heard Miao Shifan's voice at the expert meeting to determine the treatment plan, so she had no choice but to force herself to believe everything in front of her.
She hesitated for a moment before suddenly kneeling on the ground and saying, "Doctor Gu, please save my daughter!"
