Thanksgiving

Hearing Juno say that...

Adam breathed a sigh of relief.

Although he had a vague feeling that Paige might not care about Heather's existence, he still tried his best to avoid being in Asura's Battlefield.

The last Cheng Ge who was this confident has already sailed west.

"Then it's settled."

Juno laughed.

"Um."

Adam nodded. "I'll give the key to Monica. I'll leave the big meal to you. I want to go to work during the day and save a few more people."

"OK."

Juno didn't say a word.

Hang up the phone.

Adam shook his head.

He once whipped a famous horse while drunk, fearing that too much affection would burden a beautiful woman.

That statement was just for show before.

Now it seems that every word is Adam's true feeling.

Well.

It's too difficult for him without the scumbag mentality of Barney and Ted.

Three days.

It passed in the blink of an eye.

November 25th.

Noon.

Self-service restaurant.

"Adam, do you have any plans for tomorrow? If not, come and celebrate Thanksgiving with us."

Liz invited, "It's just Meredith, George, Cristina, and a few others. I'm preparing a big meal; why don't you come along?"

"Feel sorry."

Adam shook his head. "I've already made arrangements with my friends, and they've already started making preparations."

"I already told you that."

While eating, Cristina casually remarked, "Adam's girlfriends are all together, which is lively enough for Thanksgiving. Why do they need to add us to the mix?"

Besides, we're just interns, why should we Thanksgiving?

Wouldn't it be better to use that time to perform more surgeries?

I've heard that quite a few unlucky people get hurt on Thanksgiving every year...

"Cristina!"

Liz glared at him. "You said you'd come! There aren't many people left, you can't be absent!"

"I said it depends on the situation."

Cristina shrugged and said, "What if something serious happens and we all have to come and work overtime?"

Meredith!

Liz had no choice but to ask her roommate for help.

"Alright, Cristina."

Meredith said indifferently, "You should attend tomorrow. We interns are busy every day and have almost no contact with our families and friends. If we colleagues don't get together on this special day, we'll really become robots."

"That's you!"

Cristina laughed and said, "Look at Adam, he spends just as much time in the hospital as you guys, yet he's so close to his friends."

"I've also been in less contact with my family."

Adam waved his hand. "Although my friends are right here, we contact each other less than before. If it weren't for the friends organizing this, I would definitely be like you this year, with no one to celebrate the holiday with except for my colleagues."

This applies not only to Thanksgiving, but also to Christmas and New Year.

Moreover, this situation is expected to continue for several years until the Attending Physician obtains their medical license, at which point things will improve.

"Have a look!"

Cristina exclaimed, "That's what a doctor with ambition should do! These past few years have been a time for us to learn and grow rapidly in our skills. So what if we don't celebrate holidays? There's no need for so much sentimentality. If I could make a surgical robot, I'd probably laugh myself to death!"

"..."

Liz and the others were speechless.

They knew Cristina wasn't joking; she genuinely meant it.

It's not about the number of people.

Adam laughed and said, "The three of you are actually the best choice to spend the holidays together as roommates. Thanksgiving isn't exactly a good day, and Christmas and New Year are more exciting."

"What's the meaning?"

Liz was taken aback.

How did Thanksgiving originate?

Adam said, "Thank God for the good harvest, and thank the Native Americans for their help, but do you know how the Native Americans helped the United States so much that the United States have to celebrate a holiday to give thanks?"

"Uh, this."

Liz was speechless.

She is also a highly educated intellectual, so she naturally knows about that period of history.

In the past, such things were considered scandals that were unspoken and should not be discussed publicly.

People are just using this as an excuse to take a holiday.

Now Adam mentioned it.

It was instantly awkward.

"It seems everyone already knows."

Adam sneered, "Thanksgiving, Thanksgiving, are we thanking the Native Americans for having their scalps offered up and almost being exterminated? I really don't know if the person who created this holiday is a perverted monster! Shouldn't it be called Yom Kippur (Atonement Day)?"

A moment of silence fell over everyone.

Liz had no desire to invite anyone to the festival.

Many things seem beautiful, but when you tear them open, you find a bloody truth.

However, holidays should still be celebrated.

It's not about any kind of gratitude, but rather an excuse for friends and family to get together.

No way.

This is the only day off for everyone.

Early the next morning.

Chandler and Monica then arrived.

"Thank you for your help."

Adam handed them the keys. "Juno and Karen will be here later, and they'll help you then."

Don't worry.

Monica took the keys and said confidently, "A simple Thanksgiving dinner is no problem for me."

"Karen's cooking skills are also quite good; you two can exchange ideas."

Adam chuckled, "By the way, Phoebe coming over tonight?"

"Come over."

Monica laughed and said, "Ross and Rachel originally wanted to come too, but Dr. Green dragged them away."

"That's because Emma's name is Emma Geller Green!"

Adam joked, "Ross is a live-in son-in-law, of course he has to go to his father-in-law's house for the holiday."

After exchanging a few jokes, Adam left.

Being busy now is for a better life in the future.

Set a small goal first.

Within five years, before the age of 30, the goal is to increase Lifespan to 50 years.

After.

With a twenty-year Lifespan buffer, as long as the annual increase in Lifespan can offset the consumption, which means saving one person every three or four days, there is absolutely no pressure for a famous Attending Physician.

At that time, Adam no longer felt the crisis of dying young and could enjoy life to the fullest.

Medical Center.

Because it was Thanksgiving, there were almost no patients making appointments.

Unless the illness is so severe that it cannot wait even a day, patients should also celebrate Thanksgiving.

Therefore, apart from a small number of necessary doctors who stayed on duty, almost everyone in the hospital went home to reunite with their families.

The entire hospital seemed rather deserted.

Adam went through the surgery department and then went straight to the emergency room.

Today's Lifespan growth rate depends entirely on emergency room visits.

To Adam's disappointment...

The emergency room was almost deserted.

"This is a ghost!"

Adam couldn't help but curse under his breath.

The medical staff who stayed behind gathered together, either decorating the hospital to create a festive atmosphere or laughing and joking together.

Someone was singing loudly with Mike at the nurses' station, doing both rap and a duet.

There were even nurses wearing roller skates gliding around the corridor, and several times they 'lost control' and crashed into Adam.

Just as Adam was helping the blushing nurse up for the third time, thinking that he might as well go back and spend some time with Juno and Paige, the emergency room door was pushed open.

An elderly policeman led in a woman whose head was covered in blood.

Adam's eyes lit up at first, but then he looked closely and recognized the person. His heart tightened, and he immediately went to meet him.
