Chapter 637: Chapter 491: How Did Carbon Monoxide Poisoning Happen in a Dorm with No Gas?!
"Dr. Chen, according to the smart wristband, a patient’s heart rate has dropped below sixty."
"I checked by touch, and his breathing seems a bit weak too?"
"Of course, I’m not sure what the standard is for weak breathing. I’ve been comparing his breathing with another patient and some healthy classmates nearby. Compared to normal, this patient’s breathing is already quite faint."
"In this situation, should we lay them on their side, or is there something else we can do?"
Chen Mu: "!!!"
Just listening to what He Congming said, Chen Mu was suddenly somewhat thankful that He Congming was at the scene.
If it weren’t for He Congming thinking of using the smart wristband to monitor the patient’s heart rate,
perhaps normal students wouldn’t even notice the patient’s heart rate weakening.
Chen Mu took a deep breath.
Almost forcing himself to calm down, "He Congming, listen to me now."
He Congming: "Dr. Chen, go ahead, you’re the professional, we’ll follow your lead here!"
Chen Mu: "First, have someone help the patient lie flat, then find some cotton swabs and balls to clear the patient’s mouth and nose, ensuring there are no obstructions."
Instructions could be heard over there from He Congming.
Afterwards, He Congming’s voice came through the phone again, "Dr. Chen, we’ve done what you said. Is there anything else we can assist with?"
Chen Mu looked at the road ahead, frowning.
Not very optimistic.
Although the frail students were consciously making way for the campus ambulance,
the reality is,
it’s just after class now,
also the peak time for foot traffic on campus.
Even though everyone is trying hard to make way, it’s still a hindrance to the ambulance’s normal driving speed.
Chen Mu listened to He Congming’s voice.
After sighing, he spoke softly, "Can you ask if any of the students on the scene know CPR and artificial respiration?"
He Congming: "I know!"
Chen Mu wasn’t very trusting, "You?"
He Congming: "Yes, me!"
He Congming: "Dr. Chen, I’m not exaggerating, but in terms of these first aid measures, apart from those professionals, not many can do better than me. After all, I’m skilled at getting into scrapes, so when I do, I have to leave an escape route for my friends, I have to save them!"
Chen Mu: "You actually make a good point..."
He Congming: "Exactly!"
—
"Da Congming is quite proud?"
"At least compared to someone like me who knows nothing about CPR, Da Congming has something to be proud of, right?"
"After Da Congming said he’s good at getting into scrapes, suddenly him saying he’s good at CPR seems credible..."
"Right, right! What’s that saying? It’s the good swimmers that drown, and those who get themselves into danger are the ones who think they can handle first aid, and Da Congming is a typical example of this..."
"Dr. Chen: I want you to find a reliable candidate for me, and you should be out of the question first."
"But getting the patient downstairs and calling the campus security to help is very reliable of Da Congming. Why can’t we try to trust him a bit more?!"
"Yeah, jokes aside, but there’s no need to really judge Da Congming harshly, right?"
"..."
—
Feeling Chen Mu’s silence on this side,
He Congming also suddenly realized something awkwardly and chuckled, "How about this, Dr. Chen, time is tight. I’ll try to ask on the scene if there’s any other reliable student, if not, it’ll all depend on me."
"After all, trying in the face of a desperate situation is also a form of treatment."
Chen Mu: "I believe in you. We’re not far from the first dormitory. Make sure to hold on until we arrive at the scene. If the carbon monoxide exposure wasn’t too long, all four patients should be saved."
He Congming: "Alright, Dr. Chen!"
On the side, Su Bingbing, seeing Chen Mu hang up the phone, didn’t choose to calm down.
Instead, she was more focused, typing continuously on her phone.
Unable to resist approaching, she asked, "Dr. Chen, who are you texting? We’re almost at the first male dormitory!"
As she spoke,
out of camera view, Su Bingbing gave Chen Mu a suggestive wink.
The students were still in a critical state.
Even if Chen Mu couldn’t help right now, he should at least put on an anxious face in front of the camera.
Otherwise,
the image of Chen Mu chatting with someone on his phone could be clipped by someone with an agenda.
Then in the public eye,
it would be magnified and magnified again!
Chen Mu, still looking down at his phone, didn’t notice Su Bingbing’s hint beside him.
Without looking up, he replied, "I’m texting Secretary Lu."
"Secretary Lu?" Su Bingbing was puzzled.
The situation now involves students suffering from carbon monoxide poisoning.
Even if contacting the parents is necessary, that’s something to consider later. What use could contacting Secretary Lu be at this moment?
Just as Su Bingbing was still confused,
Chen Mu’s next words, spoken in a plain tone, provided the explanation she needed.
Chen Mu: "I’m informing Secretary Lu to pay attention to these students’ appearances. After their advisor claims them, take action later regarding the charcoal burning incident in the dorm."
