Medical Center.

Green Clinic.

Leonard handed Adam a medical record. "Adam, the Rice are old friends of mine. Their daughter Claire slipped in the bathtub this morning and has a fever."

Mrs. Rice felt her daughter had been unwell and losing weight recently, suspecting it was related to her daughter's trip to Mexico with friends a few weeks ago. "Come with me."

"OK."

Adam took the medical record, quickly scanned it, and followed Leonard to the ward.

"Dr. Green."

"Mr. Rice, Mrs. Rice."

Upon entering the ward, Leonard greeted a couple who looked like they were from the upper class.

Adam then turned his attention to Claire, the patient sitting in the ward, biting her lip and with a darting gaze.

There's clearly more to the story behind the illness.

"Claire, this is Dr. Duncan."

After exchanging pleasantries, Leonard looked at the patient and said, "Shall I have him examine you?"

"I'm fine, I don't need any tests. Just give me some antibiotics and let me go home."

Claire protested.

"You can't take any medicine indiscriminately."

Adam laughed and said, "It's the same with antibiotics. Doctors will examine you before prescribing them, unless you know what's wrong with you."

Claire's eyes widened in panic, and she shook her head, saying, "I don't know."

"So you need to get checked out."

Adam laughed and said, "Don't worry, it's just a simple check."

"Listen to me, get checked!"

Clive's father said.

"God, I don't want to stay here all day, get a checkup done quickly."

Claire's mother said impatiently.

"No!"

Claire exclaimed, "This is insane! I'm perfectly normal! I don't need a checkup!"

"Dr. Green, how about we call Dr. Sheran over?"

Adam asked for instructions.

Leonard was taken aback, then understood the look in Adam's eyes.

The patient doesn't want her parents to know, so this is probably a very private matter, possibly related to pregnancy or the aftereffects of an abortion.

As a young and handsome male doctor, Adam was indeed somewhat inconvenient.

"Go and call Sheran."

Leonard nodded.

"What happened?"

Claire's parents said nervously.

"Fine."

Leonard reassured her, "Dr. Duncan is with us. Claire might have some concerns. Let Dr. Sheran examine her alone."

After Adam found Sheran and told her.

Sheran came over immediately.

Seeing that he wasn't in any immediate danger, Adam decided to go to the emergency room.

Then they saw Meredith following behind a red-haired female doctor with a blank expression.

Who else could it be but Dr. Shepherd's wife?

"What's going on?"

Adam was astonished.

"It's like this..."

A young nurse immediately came over and told her the gossip.

Adam grinned.

Tsk!

That's so melodramatic!

It turns out that Dr. Shepherd's wife is a renowned Obstetrics and Gynecology who followed her husband from Boston; apparently, she was invited by the Chief of Surgery, Richard.

Before she even officially took office, she took her husband's mistress, Meredith, from the Nazi and made her her intern doctor temporarily.

Meredith felt immense psychological pressure from being the legitimate wife and the powerful aura of the renowned doctor.

This is a complete thrashing.

It remains to be seen whether Meredith can stage a comeback.

Didi.

Didi.

After spending some time in the emergency room and helping to treat a patient, my pager went off.

After Adam saw it, he immediately went to Green Clinic.

"Claire secretly underwent Gastric Bypass Surgery at an unlicensed clinic in Mexico to aid in her weight loss."

Sheran explained her condition.

"Are there any aftereffects?"

Adam understood.

Since it's an unlicensed clinic, the conditions must be terrible.

There are probably neither sterile Operating Room nor qualified doctors.

The surgery was of poor quality, so it's no surprise that sequelae and complications occurred.

"Right."

Sheran nodded. "Subdiaphragmatic abscess, intestinal wall edema. Now her parents have agreed to let us perform Gastric Bypass Reversal Surgery on her. Get ready, come into the Operating Room with me."

"Good."

Adam nodded.

Leonard, as the Attending Physician, also came in person to provide on-site guidance.

The surgery was a success.

Noon.

Self-service restaurant.

"I heard you had Gastric Bypass Reversal Surgery this morning?"

Bianca said casually.

"Right."

Adam said, "A young girl went to college and had too much coursework. She didn't have enough time to exercise, so her weight loss was not obvious. Her mother always complained about her. In a fit of anger, she wanted to take a shortcut. She secretly saw an advertisement for a black clinic in Mexico online and went there with her friend to have Gastric Bypass Surgery. She developed complications."

"That's so stupid."

Bianca sighed.

"Who can argue with that?"

Adam nodded. "Actually, she's not fat at all, and even if she were, it wouldn't be a fatal thing. There are many men in the world who like chubby men. But if she goes to a shady clinic for this kind of surgery, she could really die, and her organs could even be harvested and sold."

Bianca couldn't help but shiver.

She knew that Adam's words were not an exaggeration.

One organ might save a life.

The things people are willing to do to survive are far beyond imagination.

Therefore, the black market for organ trafficking is particularly rampant due to the enormous profits involved.

Reports of schemes specifically designed to lure people into dissecting and selling all their organs are commonplace.

Just then, George walked over and plopped down on the floor.

They looked like they were saying, "I'm suffering, but I won't say a word."

Adam ignored it.

Bianca frowned. "What's wrong?"

"I don't want to talk about it!"

George said irritably.

"If you don't want to talk about it, then don't."

Adam laughed and said, "Who's calling the dog?"

"..."

George was speechless for a moment, and his face turned red.

If he didn't want to talk, he could have just found a place to stay and silently fumed. Why did he have to come over and make all sorts of noises to attract Adam others' attention?

I just wanted to confide in someone.

"Ha ha."

Bianca laughed out loud, "George, what's wrong?"

"I'm moving out of Meredith's house tonight when I get back."

George said angrily.

"Why?"

Bianca asked curiously, "What did she do to you?"

"She... she went too far!"

George said, feeling aggrieved, "Even if I, George O'Malley, am not as good as Shepherd, it's only now. I won't be worse than him in the future, and I am devoted to her wholeheartedly."

"Then what?"

Bianca pressed for an answer.

"I thought about it last night and decided to go back and be with her. I remember Adam talking about Meredith when she's drunk..."

George said.

"I didn't! I didn't! Don't talk nonsense!"

Adam's lips twitched, and he immediately interrupted.

Damn it!

If this gets out, everyone will want to try it, and the Hulk version of Dr. Shepherd will probably beat him to death.

"... Anyway, I figured I could speak my mind after drinking, so I went back."

George said, "At first she was very welcoming to me, and we went straight to a hospital room..."

"You did it?"

Bianca Bagua Dao.

George exclaimed angrily, "Everything was so beautiful until I looked up and saw her with tears streaming down her face, as if she were in great pain and suffering!!!"

"Your way of thinking is so unique!"

Adam couldn't hold back any longer and complained, "Normally, these shouldn't be tears of happiness, the greatest affirmation of your masculine charm."

And so what if they are tears of sadness?

They just suffered such a big blow. They never had anything to do with you before. It's just an impulsive act after drinking. It's normal for them to cry when they realize it.

You're just a convenient Tool Person, how dare you bring up who she loves more? And why are you so furious about it? Who gave you the courage?

George was stunned. "..."

PS: Thanks to mssly for the reward!
