Chapter 186: Freezing Superintendent Ouyang

Translator: imperfectluck Editor: Kurisu

The leader of Kuake City CPC arrived at Kuake City Hospital. But, before he could even say anything, Superintendent Zou suddenly fainted right in front of him! The Kuake City CPC leader was almost scared witless by this! For such a thing to occur at such a time? While other people might not know about the potential consequences, the Kuake City CPC leader knew them quite well! Not to mention, the hospital was a special workplace that required professional knowledge. It would be impossible for an outsider to successfully take command.

The Kuake City CPC leader had a dark expression, but was unable to even vent his anger! “Where is the hospital secretary?” he asked in a grim tone. That was all he could do!

“His wife answered the phone, saying that he’s completely drunk!”

“Where’s the vice superintendent?”

“Reporting in. I am Vice Superintendent Shi Lei of Kuake City Hospital.” Shi Lei was also incredibly nervous. Why? Because he was more than smart enough to tell that Superintendent Zou was just pretending to have fainted—Superintendent Zou’s current physical condition didn’t match the medical condition of someone who had fainted for real. Shi Lei knew that there would be great potential risk as well as great potential reward in stepping up here, since he didn’t even know what was going on. However, Shi Lei decided to take a gamble! This was because he wasn’t young anymore, and wouldn’t have many chances at further promotions!

“Immediately organize the doctors and nurses to prepare anything necessary to treat the emergency patients. There’s some patients with special status who are coming to our Kuake City Hospital. Everything needs to be prepared fast! Let me know immediately if there’s anything you need.” The Kuake City CPC leader swiftly issued orders. His heart was about to explode before Shi Lei stood up, but now he was feeling slightly better about the situation.

“Regarding that, there’s nothing that we need. All of us employees of the hospital will surely make all the best and necessary preparations. Rest assured, Leader!” Shi Lei instantly felt far more reassured when he heard that this incident was about saving emergency patients. He had originally been rather worried about what this could have been about, but now he wasn’t worried at all. He was quite smart, after all! He couldn’t guarantee anything in other matters, but he wasn’t scared at all of trying to save emergency patients. He wouldn’t even be afraid of trying to save an emperor. This was because he was the vice superintendent, which meant that he would barely have to take responsibility at all. Besides, Kuake City Hospital’s medical level was well known, so it couldn’t be helped if the patients died, and it would be considered really lucky if the patients lived! However, Shi Lei did have all the nurses, doctors, and logistics personnel begin preparing all the necessary medical supplies and equipment. He also made them check things more than 10 times over. As long as there was no problem with the medical supplies and equipment, maybe the heavens would favor him and the emergency patients could be saved. Shi Lei would then be able to take the credit!

‘Haha! That Old Zou is now going to be ruined!’ Shi Lei felt great joy in his heart, but he didn’t even spare a single glance for Superintendent Zou who was still pretending to moan and fake being unconscious.

The Kuake City CPC leader sat in a car at the hospital entrance and watched the doctors and nurses busily running about. ‘I wonder if it will be of use?’ he thought to himself.

He had been informed by his bosses that he had to personally lead the efforts in organizing Kuake City Hospital to help save the emergency patients. That was why he really wanted to stomp on Superintendent Zou’s body when he saw how the latter had fainted!

Chasu City Hospital’s doctors arrived at Kuake City Hospital slightly before the injured patients did. This was because the road between these two cities was slightly easier to traverse. The military policemen were also highly skilled drivers. They all parked in orderly fashion by the roadside, leaving the main road clear so that their injured comrades could arrive without delay.

However, one car did park in front of Kuake City Hospital’s main building as the Chasu City Hospital doctors got off their respective military police cars. While the Chasu City Hospital doctors were still wondering what they should do, the car parked in front of the hospital main building turned on a floodlight. Superintendent Ouyang then stood up on top of the car with a military policeman’s assistance. “Everyone, please pay attention. I am Ouyang Hong, the superintendent of Chasu City Hospital. For the time being, I shall be temporarily taking charge of Kuake City Hospital. Everyone, please obey my commands. I will be calling out a list of names. Anyone who I call, please come up here.”

Superintendent Ouyang used a loudspeaker from the military police car. The cold breeze from the wintry night was strong enough to blow her somewhat whitening hair all over the place. “Surgery personnel from Kuake City Hospital, please stand in a line to my left. Wang Qingqing from Chasu City Hospital, please bring your operating room nurses and stand together in the same line as them.”

Several nurses and anesthesiologists then walked out from the crowd and stood together in a line to her left.

“General surgery doctors, please stand in the second line. Orthopedic surgeons, please stand in the third line. Neurosurgery, fourth line. Cardiothoracic, fifth line. ICU, sixth line. Cardiovascular, respiratory, and gastrointestinal, seventh line.” Superintendent Ouyang organized everyone in an orderly fashion, with not a single trace of chaos. All the white-clad doctors and nurses got into orderly lines while standing in the chilly wind. This all had such a serious atmosphere!

“Who is the person in charge of Kuake City Hospital?” Superintendent Ouyang asked.

“I am!” Shi Lei responded in a loud voice.

“Immediately ensure that all relevant medical laboratory departments are prepared and on standby. Turn on all necessary machines for checkups and warm up the machines that need pre-warming.”

“Yes!”

“I will now inform you of the current situation. Soon, six brave warriors who were injured in the line of duty will be arriving here at Kuake City Hospital. We must all do our very best for them. Right now, allow me to confirm the medical teams.” Normally, the person with the highest governmental rank would be the person in charge of issuing commands. However, things would be different for saving patients as this would require professional expertise. Even if Chasu City CPC’s leader was here today, he would still need to let Superintendent Ouyang take charge of everything here!

“For the expert doctor team in charge of saving the patients: I, Ouyang Hong, will be the leader. The vice leaders will be Zhao Quanping, Gao Shijun, Zhao Jun, Ren Li, Yu Bing, and Li Jianguo.” Superintendent Ouyang then hesitated for a moment before adding, “Along with Zhang Fan and anesthesiology director Nuartu.”

After announcing this, Superintendent Ouyang then turned to look at the vice city leader and military police captain, who were standing before the car she was standing on top of. The vice city leader said, “Superintendent Ouyang, we will fully cooperate with you. Feel free to issue your commands.” The vice city leader here was just here to support Superintendent Ouyang.

“Please issue your commands!” the military police captain loudly declared.

Superintendent Ouyang nodded as she patted her hair that was being blown everywhere. Although her hands were already freezing to the point of going numb, that didn’t interfere with her clear thinking at all. “I immediately command all those whose names I didn’t call to wait in their corresponding hospital department. Military police comrades, please take charge of Kuake City Hospital’s elevators. Kuake City Hospital doctors, please assuage the patients currently in the hospital, and tell them not to come out into the hallways, and especially not to use the elevators which are so critical for saving the patients’ lives.”

The moment she said this, the military police captain sent out several small squads of fully armed military police to all of the elevators in Kuake City Hospital, ensuring that the elevators would be immediately ready for the injured patients’ imminent arrival. The Kuake City Hospital doctors also saw that they weren’t necessary anymore, so they returned to the hospital to assuage their own patients.

“I must emphasize once again! We must do our very best. This is our responsibility! This is our natural responsibility as medical personnel! Our warriors have already bled to protect us. Their lives are in danger. It’s now time to test our skills. Everyone, please set aside all unnecessary thoughts here. Saving people comes first and foremost! Otherwise, the country and heavens won’t accept us!”

Superintendent Ouyang was filled with a powerful aura as she spoke in a forceful tone. She was worried that there would be arguing over rank, face, or who would get to be the primary surgeon, which might cause the seriously injured patients to lose precious time necessary for saving them. That was why she especially emphasized this.

“Operating room doctors, go to the operating rooms now. Everyone else, wait in the main hall on standby. The main expert doctor team, come meet me for a discussion.” A military policeman then supported Superintendent Ouyang as she got off from the roof of the military police car. She was so cold from standing in the winter breeze that her lips were turning pale.

“In a bit, you six surgical directors will choose your own medical teams. Make sure that there’s one surgical director per medical team, and do your very best. I won’t need to say anything else about how to save the patients. You’re all veteran doctors who don’t need me to say anything else.” Right after Superintendent Ouyang said this, the sound of sirens could be heard.

“They’re here! Get ready,” Superintendent Ouyang declared as she watched the sirens flashing in the distance.

Stretchers, ambulances, emergency medical supplies, and so on were all waiting at the hospital entrance. The military police cars had been parked in an orderly fashion on the sides. They all suddenly turned on their floodlights to illuminate the way! A cold breeze blew past as Zhang Fan stood in the expert doctors team together with the six surgical directors. He felt as if he could smell the scent of blood in the wind.

Three ambulances arrived together with some IVECO cars that had been modified into medical cars. All of the drivers were military policemen who drove really quickly. Right after arriving, the first ambulance opened its doors and a female doctor from Sumu City loudly shouted, “Hurry! The patient is already showing cyanosis!”

With this, the cardiothoracic and respiratory directors immediately went over to check on this patient.

A doctor from the second ambulance then shouted, “Hurry, this patient is going into shock! I can no longer measure his blood pressure! He has major bleeding from his right leg!” The orthopedic director went to see this patient.

“Over here! This warrior’s intestines are coming out!” The general surgery director went over to this patient.

This was only the beginning!
