Race Against Death in the Emergency Room

Duncan Apartment.

Adam celebrated Marshall and Lily's engagement with a crowd at a bar for several hours.

When I got back, I found Bianca still fast asleep, and I couldn't help but smile.

She is petite and has a delicate appearance, and looks very quiet, but deep down she is actually quite wild.

When she gets going, she can be even more outrageous than the average girl.

Adam couldn't be persuaded otherwise.

The next day.

A new day has begun.

Adam woke Bianca.

"Um."

Bianca closed her eyes, not wanting to move.

"Are you planning to give up being a surgeon?"

Adam joked.

"Of course not! Hiss..."

Bianca opened her eyes, immediately stood up, and then transformed into a chilling mess. "Damn it! Adam, are you even human?"

"Hehe."

Adam smiled but didn't reply.

Arguing with a woman about who is right and who is wrong is completely pointless.

Are you alright?

Adam stepped forward to help her out of bed. "Do you want to take a day off and rest?"

"Of course not."

Bianca pushed Adam aside and walked towards the bathroom with an ever-changing expression, starting to wash up.

Surgical interns all want to learn as many techniques as possible as quickly as possible.

The hospital seems to treat interns like animals, with them taking leave during their second shift?

If an intern receives an unsatisfactory rating or comment on their evaluation form, and this is recorded in their medical file, it will be a stain on their record for life.

If you want to find a good job in the future and compete for popular positions, those with blemishes are usually screened out in the first round.

Even though their attending physician was the ' Dr. Love ' Sheran, Bianca didn't want to take any risks.

After all, she's hooked up with Adam Duncan. Who knows if Sheran might be all smiles on the surface but secretly cursing her and making things difficult for her?

Women know best about Adam's charm and allure.

Sheran was just a single female doctor a few years older than them, and she would be the first to disbelieve that she had no feelings for Adam.

Medical Center.

The second round of duty has officially begun.

This time, unlike the first round of 48-hour challenges, it only takes about 14 hours, which is equivalent to 796, meaning 7 am to 9 pm, 6 days a week.

Adam had just parked his car with Bianca when he heard a buzzing motorcycle sound. A person wearing a helmet and leather clothing stopped next to Adam's parking space.

The helmet opened, revealing Cristina's middle-aged face.

Good morning.

Good morning, everyone?

Cristina's gossipy gaze swept back and forth between Adam and Bianca.

"Just happened to run into them."

Bianca explained.

"Oh."

Cristina had an expression that said, "I'll believe whatever you say, but I don't."

"Have you made up with Meredith yet?"

Adam parked the car, gestured for the two to walk towards the hospital, and changed the subject with a smile.

"They've made up."

Cristina shrugged and said, "Actually, it's nothing. We're all surgeons, we all know the rules of the game. Competition is the norm. If you're not used to this kind of atmosphere, you might as well leave sooner rather than later."

"You're the one who's aware of things."

Adam nodded in approval and said, "I'll remember that. Next time I encounter that situation, I'll answer immediately."

"..."

Cristina couldn't help but roll her eyes.

Changing room.

All the interns were changing into blue shirts and white coats.

The ruthless Liz immediately attracted the attention of most of the male doctors, especially the scoundrel Alex, who was practically whistling at her with a broad smile, completely forgetting his embarrassing moment during his first shift.

His positive mindset far surpasses that of Tongji University students.

Adam saw this, his initial thought that he was definitely going to be discouraged changed.

When a person is shameless enough, he is invincible.

Compared to the ruthless Liz with her Saintly Mother mentality and the unlucky, effeminate, chubby George, Alex might have a slightly better chance of survival.

Are you looking for a roommate?

Meredith came in and posted a notice on the wall. George, who had a crush on her, immediately leaned over and said, "Count me in."

"Count me in too."

The ruthless Liz's eyes lit up, and she joined in.

Don't even think about it.

Meredith refused outright.

"My mom ironed my surgical gown yesterday, thinking it was just regular clothes."

George pleaded, "I don't want to live with my parents anymore. I need to find a place to live. Please let me move in."

"I can cook, and I'm very clean."

The ruthless Liz promoted herself.

"We spend 100 hours together a week, that's enough."

Meredith firmly refused. "I just want to find two complete strangers as roommates, without having to chat or show any kindness."

"Count me in, okay?"

Alex chuckled wickedly, "We don't need to chat or show each other any special treatment. You can do whatever you want."

I want you to stay away from me!

Meredith slammed the locker door shut in disgust and left the changing room.

Alex shrugged dismissively.

Green Clinic.

"Adam, you're going to the emergency room today."

"Chris, go to the Trauma Surgery."

"Bianca, go and tell the patient the test results."

"Stu, go and stitch it up."

Sheran began assigning tasks.

"Yes."

Everyone agreed and dispersed.

emergency room.

Didi.

Didi.

As soon as the pager went off, Adam looked at it and immediately rushed to the ward indicated on the pager.

"I am Dr. Duncan, in charge of this rescue. What is the patient's condition?"

Adam rushed into the ward, observing the patient's condition while asking the emergency personnel who had followed him questions.

"A 57-year-old male, cardiac arrest."

The emergency responders explained.

"Prepare the stun gun and charge it to 200 joules."

Adam readily picked up the stun gun and instructed the nurse to recharge it.

"It's already charging."

The nurse responded.

"Clear!"

Adam gave a warning, and seeing that everyone else was no longer touching the patient, he decisively pressed the defibrillator onto the patient's chest and delivered a shock.

"Ah!"

The patient, whose heart had stopped beating, awoke from his coma with a startled cry.

"Heartbeat has returned to normal."

The nurse gave a reminder, her gaze towards Adam filled with admiration.

They know best how rookie doctors perform.

Most other interns would have been at a loss, standing by and watching them perform emergency treatment, unlike Adam was so decisive and skilled.

Adam glanced at the data on the instrument, put down the stun gun, and smiled with satisfaction.

Because a +0.01 notification appeared on the system panel.

He saved a person's life so easily.

No wonder someone likes working in the emergency room; the life-or-death race against time is just too exciting.

Compared to surgery, which can take several hours, the emergency room, where a person's life or death is decided in minutes or even seconds, seems more suitable for someone like Adam who extends his Lifespan by saving lives.

However, Adam only thought about it and did not regret his choice to become a surgeon.

Because such good deeds, where a single electric shock saves a life, are rare, given that the chances of this happening within the radiation range of a hospital are extremely limited.

Once a surgeon becomes famous, they can attract patients from all over the world who are on the verge of death. At that time, they can do as many surgeries as they want, and their efficiency, stability, and potential are far beyond what emergency care can match.

As it turned out, Adam's idea was correct.

In just one day, Adam only had this one chance to become the Thunderbolt King. The other emergencies were not fatal, and the system alerts ranged from +0.0001 to +0.0005 each time.

This life-extending effect is even less than assisting the surgeon.
