Chapter 2297: Chapter 2297: Muted
Teacher Cao spoke like an immortal with divine foresight, predicting that the first thought that popped into their minds would be: seeing the handsome teacher.
That’s not right, not at all.
They collectively brushed off their wandering thoughts and restarted their medical processes, focusing all their attention on the patient’s X-ray.
Perhaps irritated by these distracted students, Teacher Cao Zhao, with the hand not holding a stethoscope, slipped his hand into his white coat, displaying a stern demeanor, scanning the students’ faces to spot who might be the unfortunate one.
The sound of gulping filled the air, like streams merging into the sea, spreading from whispers to the whole crowd.
Teacher Cao, the devil, was originally thought to use his charming looks to pacify the students, but now it seemed more than that. The horrifying pressure from his dark eyes could make one suffocate. Zhao Zhaowei and others felt cold sweat forming again.
What are you looking at? The handsome teacher? Aren’t you the ones who see me as handsome? Looking for trouble, are you? That’s what Teacher Cao’s eyes said.
Has the Immortal Brother picked up the teaching whip?
"You—"
Under everyone’s watchful eyes, they all saw the tip of Xie Wanying’s nose seemingly pointed at from a distance with Teacher Cao’s stethoscope.
Is he going to call on Student Xie to answer a question? The Guoxie students were gleeful; Student Xie often managed to trip up the teacher, so it should be fine.
Xie Wanying did not think so; those sharp eyes of the Immortal Brother, like a sword drawn from its sheath, smiled at her.
"Without my say, don’t speak." Cao Zhao said.
This statement startled not only several Guoxie students but also stunned the other Guodu students present: What did this mean? Why did Teacher Cao specifically instruct this person to remain silent?
It should be noted, Teacher Cao did not explicitly silence Doctor Cheng and the others.
After silencing her, Cao Zhao seemed reassured, casually pointing the stethoscope in his hand to Wei Shangquan, who was standing beside her, and said, "You answer."
The group of newly arrived Guoxie medical students suddenly realized that the stethoscope in Teacher Cao’s hand was not quite the same as his handsome persona.
If the patient were to pay close attention, they might find some doctors’ stethoscopes appear different from those of most doctors. It has been explained before that not all doctors need to use stethoscopes constantly. A stethoscope is an important tool for doctors, and how important it is depends on the department.
Given this context, for certain specialties that do not highly require stethoscopes, doctors just use the stethoscopes distributed by the hospital, not focusing on them. The hospital issues uniform stethoscopes to everyone, for general use.
In fact, only medical students care if the stethoscope is attractive and functional, going around asking about brands. The more senior the doctor, the less interest in buying their own stethoscope, knowing that the real tool in play is the person using it.
For clinical teachers, being able to pick up any stethoscope in an emergency and diagnose a patient’s ailment is the hallmark of true skill.
Let’s not say the stethoscope in Teacher Cao’s hand is unattractive; from the material alone, one can tell it’s not a cheap version, definitely not the kind distributed by the hospital. It’s estimated to be something used by a pharmaceutical representative. Clinical doctors often receive various giveaways from vendors. It must be admitted that items given by pharmaceutical reps to doctors are much better than the cheap stuff distributed by the hospital.
