Chapter 301 -151: The Fast Knife Skill Shows Its Power, The Sturdy Man is Captured by Dr. Zou_3

Director Wen had evidently witnessed Dr. Xu’s capabilities firsthand.

Even after many years, the memory was still vivid.

And filled with reverence.

“Immediately take this piece of tumor remnant for pathology testing; if the margins are clear, there’s no need to touch the central artery. If there’s evidence of tumor cell infiltration and metastasis, then we must extend the range of surgery.”

Director Wen said to a graduate student.

The running around and miscellaneous tasks were originally supposed to be handled by the newcomer, Zhou Can.

Now that Zhou Can has demonstrated his surgical prowess, even Director Wen has to concede. Who would dare ask Zhou Can to do these menial tasks?

…

More than twenty minutes later, the results of the pathology test were out.

The margins were clear, with no signs of spread.

This was exceptionally uplifting news.

In the operating room, cheers erupted.

Even Director Wen was beaming with joy, exclaiming, “Dr. Zhou is truly a lucky star for our team! Ever since he joined, one good thing follows another.”

From another perspective, after Zhou Can joined their team, several complex cases had been resolved.

It wasn’t a matter of luck.

But rather, Zhou Can just happened to have the surgical expertise in this area.

“Remove the bridging artificial blood vessel, then clean up the wound, and it can be stitched up directly.”

Director Wen’s gaze turned to Dr. Zou.

“Are you okay with removing the bridging vessel?”

“Guaranteed to complete the task safely.”

Dr. Zou, who hadn’t been able to contribute much earlier in the operation, was now taken care of by Director Wen, who deliberately assigned him a wrapping-up task. He was fully committed.

Otherwise, it would not look good for him or for Director Wen.

This surgery had been full of twists and turns, seemingly dominated by Zhou Can, the newly joined resident in the group.

Naturally, this left everyone else feeling less than glorious.

The surgery ended quickly, and Dr. Zou’s operation could be said to be standard and fairly decent.

He managed to salvage some dignity for himself.

Of course, the biggest winner was Zhou Can.

Not only did he advance his Fast Knife Skill to the beginner level, but he also accrued practical experience with the technique. Additionally, his status within the team had risen significantly.

It’s likely that in Director Wen’s eyes, Zhou Can’s status was even higher than that of the two attending physicians.

You can’t blame Director Wen for being pragmatic.

Because Zhou Can’s skills were simply too numerous.

“Dr. Zhou, I have a surgery this afternoon; could you lend a hand?”

Upon exiting the operating room, Dr. Zou actually took the initiative to invite Zhou Can, which surprised him greatly.

Their relationship had been quite stiff.

He had no issues with Dr. Zou.

It was Dr. Zou who seemed to have a problem with him because he was outshining everyone.

Old comrades, after all, commonly don’t wish to be outdone by the new ones.

“Sure, I’d be more than happy to.”

Zhou Can wouldn’t dare to disappoint the other party.

An experienced attending physician actively lowering his stance to make peace with him and improve their relationship was very rare.

“Hehe, Dr. Zou, are you drafting strongmen? Another day, when I have my own surgery, I’ll have to learn from you and draft Dr. Zhou to be a strongman,” Tang Li said jokingly, laughing.

She was warning in advance, half-jokingly, that next time she had a surgery on her own, she would also call Zhou Can for help.

“The capable are always busy! Dr. Zhou is so skilled in surgery, we are all in the same team, I’m sure he won’t mind putting in extra effort.”

Dr. Zou showed an uncommon smile.

His eyes were also looking at Zhou Can.

“I’m flattered by your high regard and care for me, a junior. I promise to be on call at any time and never slack off. I will put my all into the job.”

Zhou Can, being highly praised by two attending physicians, couldn’t afford to get arrogant.

His proactive and humble demeanor also won him the favor of several senior doctors.

…

In the afternoon, Zhou Can assisted Dr. Zou with surgery on a woman with a skull fracture.

He had intended to keep a low profile.

However, it turned out that Dr. Zou’s Fracture Union Technique and Bone Setting Skill were just average.

It was understandable as neurosurgery has always looked down upon orthopedics, considering it mere rough work.

As a consequence, neurosurgery barely has any doctors who are good at orthopedic surgery.

Often, when faced with a fracture surgery, they need to call for help from an orthopedic surgeon.

Note that it’s “call,” not “invite.”

When neurosurgery has to ask for help from orthopedics, they are never too polite.

Zhou Can had been with orthopedics for three months, where he truly learned a lot.

And he had raised several orthopedic surgical techniques to a Level 3 standard. For now, only his Bone Grafting Technique was a little weaker, still at residency level.

In this woman’s fracture surgery, Zhou Can put in a lot of effort.

He executed the crucial parts of the surgery competently.

Dr. Zou exclaimed that inviting him to help was the right call.

Initially, Dr. Zou hadn’t known Zhou Can’s orthopedic surgery ability was also so strong. He simply thought that a fracture surgery was challenging to perform alone. The resident doctors under him were as clumsy as pigs.

And since it was surgery on the brain, safety had to be ensured.

Zhou Can was prudent and skilled in multiple surgeries; having him help would at least offer some assurance.

In the end, Zhou Can didn’t disappoint.

In fact, he gave him a rather big surprise. The two of them managed to complete the skull fracture surgery together.

And they did it very well.

After the operation, while the patient was still under anesthesia, Zhou Can said to Dr. Zou, “The injuries on this woman don’t look like they’re from a fall, they resemble injuries from a violent beating. Do you think she might be a victim of domestic violence?”

“Dr. Zhou, this isn’t our place to intervene. If she were underage, we could do something. As an adult, she has her considerations. And from my experience, getting involved in these matters can often be a thankless task.”

Dr. Zou gave him some advice.

“I just see too many injuries on her. Look, these are old wounds, indicating that she’s been suffering from ongoing violence. I can’t understand why she just doesn’t divorce.”

Zhou Can pointed to the woman’s shoulder, legs, and other areas.

Bruises and hematomas that were ghastly to look at.

“Marriage isn’t as easy as you think. It’s not something that can just be ended. There are children, relatives, friends of both parties, parents, shared property, and feelings that cannot be severed. In short, you’ll understand once you’re married.”

Being 40 years old, Dr. Zou was undoubtedly already settled down.

He just smiled and shook his head.
