Qin Xin tapped Ao Xinghao’s shoulder, "Stop arguing with them. Review the key points of retinal detachment repair surgery; when operating later, teamwork is crucial. The key to this surgery is finding the correct tear and applying the right pressure to ensure that the detached retina is perfectly reattached, otherwise, the chances of blindness are high..."

Ao Xinghao listened intently.

Hu Yi also took notes in his little notebook.

Huo Zhen didn’t forget to ask, "I keep hearing about retinal detachment. Is it really that common?"

Qin Xin nodded, "The retina is very fragile. People who don’t take care of their eyes or stay up late for long periods are more prone to detachment. Strong light stimulus is another factor. If you look at your phone for more than half an hour under the glaring sun in summer without any shade, the risk increases tenfold."

Hu Yi shivered, "Damn, I play racing games on my phone every night until two or three in the morning. What should I do?"

Qin Xin: "Just control yourself and stop playing. Having strong self-discipline is important; set a rule for yourself, you can do it."

Ao Xinghao: "What if it’s end-of-term revision and I have to stay up late to cram?"

Qin Xin: "You must turn on the light. Darkness damages the eyes ten times more than a gentle light source."

Hu Yi: "Ao Chongchong, your question is fake. When have you ever stayed up late to study before an exam?"

Ao Xinghao raised an eyebrow, "To get a perfect 100 in every subject like Sister Xin, by the end of next term, I’m planning to stay up late. Do you have a problem with that?"

Hu Yi: "Okay, okay, I’ll note it down. Count me in; I want to get a perfect 100 too!" 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚

Huo Zhen: "Count me in."

Qin Xin shook her head helplessly.

The group was already looking forward to next year’s end-of-term exams.

Unfortunately, by then, she, as Lan Qingxin, might not be around to meet their expectations.

Perhaps foreseeing the impending separation, Qin Xin’s gaze at her three friends was noticeably different, and her tone while reminding them about surgery precautions was much gentler and more patient than usual.

It made Hu Yi feel unaccustomed, "Sister Xin, why don’t you pound the table? Or scold me a couple of times?"

Qin Xin: "..."

So, is this a case of itching for a beating when not reprimanded for three days?

Lan Yingjun, after signing for the surgical instruments, returned to see Qin Xin explaining the surgery precautions to the three of them, and his expression wasn’t good, "Know who the team leader is. You’re just a substitute. What are you doing pointing fingers and giving orders?"

Ao Xinghao clenched his fist, wanting to punch Lan Yingjun in the face.

Qin Xin replied calmly, "The competition team is a team, not just Lan Yingjun. If you want to call the shots, show some skills that command respect, then we can listen to you. However, wasn’t your score the lowest in the prelims? Do you think it’s appropriate for you to point fingers?"

Lan Yingjun: "You!"

Ao Xinghao chuckled, giving a thumbs up.

Well, Sister Xin’s words are more impactful than a punch, hahaha.

After being reprimanded by Qin Xin, Lan Yingjun entered the operating room, his cheeks puffed with anger.

It’s just a retinal detachment repair surgery, it’s too easy.

Let these freshmen see what he’s capable of!

He assigned Ao Xinghao and the others some simple auxiliary tasks and took the lead in the operation.

On the large screen on the first floor of the competition venue, the progress of the surgery in the ten competing teams’ operating rooms was being projected separately.

Lan Yingjun’s speed was fast and almost on par with the progress in the Royal Academy’s operating room number 1, with techniques similar to the Royal Academy team leader Ding Yuanzhi’s.

Two hours later.

The surgery was nearing completion!
