Medical Center.

Adam took Rachel to the Obstetrics and Gynecology- GYN and then came out first.

"Go to Eighth Avenue, there's a boutique there."

"Right."

"What color? Any color, whatever you like."

"Remember to package it well so that it can't be seen from the outside."

"Yes, hurry!"

After hanging up the phone with his Tool Man No. 3 Ada and Lisa, Adam shook his head and muttered to himself, "It's only in the American TV Show World that I'd get beaten to death like this..."

However, if you're sick, you have to get treatment; you always have to treat the symptoms.

Rachel, be thankful you have a friend like me!

Let's not Adam here, he's awesome.

Over there, an organ donor from Wickes Hospital was brought over.

George was in charge of receiving it.

Have you contacted the family?

"I've contacted them. It will take them more than an hour to arrive. Should I call you when they get there?"

"Nurse Olivia said expressionlessly."

That's right!

She's the nurse who first had an affair with Alex and then passed the Charm Poison on to George.

Although it was awkward, they were colleagues and would run into each other all the time.

There will always be moments like this.

As for why Olivia, the nurse who made the mistake, had a stern face?

Because nurse Olivia apologized and then reiterated her desire to continue to George, but George ignored her in public.

"Okay, are the family members aware of the current situation?"

George asked casually as he examined the organ donors.

This organ donor was brain dead, but his heart and other organs were functioning normally.

Because he had signed an organ donation agreement before his death, he was sent directly here to be given multiple organs, including his heart, for transplantation to six patients in three states.

George performed a routine check and then announced the time of death.

All we know is that we are still being treated.

Nurse Olivia clearly had no interest in the patient, and after a perfunctory reply, she steered the conversation back to them, saying pointedly, "I think it's best to know the bad news upfront, so you can look forward more easily. What do you think, George?"

George pretended not to understand and pressed his fist against the patient's chest, not expecting any reaction.

But something happened that greatly surprised him.

The patient who was declared brain dead actually moved because of his actions.

Did you see that?

George looked at Nurse Olivia.

Seeing that she didn't react, he placed his fist on the patient's chest again. The patient, who should have been brain dead and unresponsive, moved slightly.

"Her brain is reacting involuntarily! Her brainstem is still active! She cannot be completely considered brain dead!"

"We've taken over this area, thanks."

At this moment, the doctor in charge of the removal surgery came over with his assistant.

George explained the situation and even demonstrated it.

"It may have been overlooked."

The doctor in charge of the removal surgery said nonchalantly, "However, if the cerebral cortex dies, the brainstem will follow, so death is only a matter of time. Of course, we will wait for it to happen."

"But don't you think..."

George wanted to say that she might still be able to be saved, but he was interrupted by the middle-aged doctor.

"She was already dead when she got to the Operating Room."

George stood there, watching the patient, who wasn't completely brain dead, being wheeled away. He paused for a moment, then murmured, "But she's still alive..."

No!

This shouldn't be!

Adam worked tirelessly for over an hour to save a patient, which resulted in a miracle of life!

Did I know that the patient was not completely brain dead, yet I just watched her being wheeled into the Operating Room to have all her organs removed?

No!

George thought to himself, but he just couldn't bring himself to take the first step to catch up with them.

The other party was a senior doctor. What could an intern like him say? The other party cornered him with just a few words. What good would it do to chase after him?

For a moment, George was caught in a great psychological conflict, and sweat beaded on his chubby forehead.

"Adam!"

Suddenly, he caught a glimpse of a familiar figure out of the corner of his eye and immediately shouted.

"What's wrong?"

Adam heard George call him and immediately looked over.

"Come here quickly!"

George waved frantically.

Adam was startled and sped off at full speed.

In hospitals, speed is often the key to life!

Running is a regular occurrence.

In my opinion, instead of "Run, Brothers," they should just do "Run, Doctors!"

George quickly explained the situation.

Are you sure?

Adam stared into George's eyes.

"I'm sure."

George nodded.

"He's telling the truth."

Nurse Olivia, no longer caring about giving George a hard time, chimed in.

"Okay, George, go find Dr. Shepherd right away, I'll go stop them."

Adam gave the instructions and quickly gave chase.

Patients who are not completely brain dead and may still be resuscitated are directly treated as brain dead and rushed into the Operating Room to have their organs removed.

Just because she signed an organ donation agreement before her death?

Just because she wanted to do good deeds?

Why didn't you do everything you could to save him?

Is there really no other way?

Or do they simply not want to do it, so they deliberately ignore these obvious physiological signals?

As for why?

Six patients in three states are all waiting for her organs!

This is absolutely Terrifying Upon Closer Inspection!

"Wait a moment!"

Adam stopped them. "Mind if I check?"

"Mind."

The middle-aged doctor in charge of the removal surgery knew as soon as Adam arrived that he was George's helper. If it were any other Attending Physician, he would have had no objections, but Adam was just an intern.

What are you doing?

The middle-aged doctor, who had been signaling to his assistant to continue pushing the gurney into the Operating Room Adam, was astonished to find Adam hooking his foot on the wheel of the gurney.

"I need to check it."

Adam bent down to examine her.

Just as George had said, the patient still had neurological responses and was not completely brain dead.

"Don't make a fuss. She is indeed moving, but she has fallen into an irreversible coma. Dr. Hans at Wickes Hospital has already examined her."

The middle-aged doctor scoffed, "But don't worry, once we're in the Operating Room, we'll just wait for her to die. We know the procedure!"

"But Dr. Shepherd hasn't done any tests yet."

Adam remained blocking the wheel, saying calmly, "We've already called him. He's the Attending Physician Neurosurgery our Medical Center. Since you want to have the removal surgery done at our hospital, you need to wait for Dr. Shepherd's confirmation. Dr. Hans might have overlooked something! After all, he's just a doctor, not God!"

"I will file a complaint against your hospital!"

The middle-aged doctor stared at Adam.

"My name is Adam Duncan."

Adam did not flinch, but Jingjing met his gaze.

The scene froze instantly.

Until George led Dr. Shepherd to the scene in a hurry.

"Excuse me, I'm Derek Shepherd, Attending Physician Neurosurgery. Would you mind if I examined you?"

Dr. Shepherd nodded to Adam, glanced at the middle-aged doctor, and said this, but before the middle-aged doctor could answer, he had already bent down to perform the examination.

Middle-aged doctor. "..."

P. S.: Thank you Cangye Feilong for the donation!
