21st Century Necromancer

Chapter 196 Drag Out



"Because you want to ensure that the surgery is truly foolproof, right? Dr. Daimon, I'm not sure how skilled you are, but since you said you could remove it all at once, you must be confident about it, and I'll assume you can indeed do it.

However..." Zhao Min paused here, glancing toward Chen Yu, who was performing surgery below the observation room: "Completing the surgery in one go is certainly impressive, but even if your skills allow you to remove all the tumors accurately in one attempt, what do we do if less than 20% of the liver remains after removing all the tumors? That's why a second surgery is the safest approach.

As for why Senior Brother Chen insists on using laser projection, I think he wants to ensure that all the tumors are completely removed, right? After all, human eyes can make mistakes, but machines do not."

"Senior Brother Chen isn't letting you participate in the surgery not because he doesn't trust your skills, but precisely because your skills are so good that you could successfully complete the surgery despite the greatest risks. However, what Senior Brother Chen wants is zero risk, so he stopped you from participating."

"Why is this person so stubborn? He could have been direct and let me assist according to his surgical plan!" Michiko Daimon, though finding sense in Zhao Min's analysis, still felt it was incomprehensible.

Zhao Min naturally heard Michiko Daimon's incomprehension. In fact, if she hadn't known Chen Yu for a long time, she wouldn't understand why he didn't use a doctor with good skills, insisting on using a clumsy method instead: "Senior Brother Chen is just such a stubborn person, preferring to use a clumsy method to ensure a 100% success rate rather than taking any risks."

"But I won't fail!" Michiko Daimon emphasized confidently, because for her, failure in surgery wasn't an option.

"But Senior Brother Chen might fail, ah!" Zhao Min laughed, seeing the confident expression on Michiko Daimon's face, and couldn't help but exclaim: "You, Doctor, indeed have the confidence and skills not to fail, but Senior Brother Chen doesn't, ah. He's a very foolish person.

So a foolish person lacking your confidence and skills to never fail has to employ a more foolish method to ensure they don't fail, ah."

"He's foolish? The youngest associate professor at Eastern University Affiliated Hospital, a potential Nobel Prize in Medicine laureate—if I don't pay much attention to these things, even my ears have calluses from hearing his great name.

If he's foolish, then there are no smart people in all of Japan!" Although Michiko Daimon never cared much for these matters, her best friend was Hiromi Jounouchi, Chen Yu's fiancée, who had talked about Chen Yu countless times before.

However, hearing Michiko Daimon's words, Zhao Min couldn't help but smile, as if recalling something amusing. After laughing, she explained to Michiko Daimon: "But Senior Brother Chen really wasn't smart in the past! When he was learning from my father, although his grades weren't the worst, they were below average, and he was often scolded harshly by my mother during practical operations...

Oh, I forgot to mention, my mother was also his teacher, and the first time he held a scalpel was taught by my mother."

"But according to what you're saying, how could someone foolish possibly be admitted as a doctoral student at the University of Tokyo Medical School?

It's the place in all of Japan with the highest deviation score requirements." Michiko Daimon, hearing what Zhao Min said, became curious about how someone described as mediocre could get into the most demanding program in Japan: "Or are you saying that he previously attended China's top academic institutions and was only average because the schools were filled with geniuses?"

"The school Senior Brother attended was just a very ordinary third-rate institution. Although my father was a professor there, he only supervised master's students, and the school didn't even have the qualifications to offer doctoral programs," Zhao Min said, a somewhat embarrassed expression on her face as a third-rate institution was nothing to boast about.

Nevertheless, she continued to explain to Michiko Daimon: "Senior Brother must be what you call a genius of hard work, huh? During his freshman and sophomore years, his grades were not very good, but his only advantage was his eagerness to learn, always pestering my parents and professors with questions. Although his grades weren't great, this diligence made the teachers very fond of him.

Maybe hard work makes up for lack of talent. By his junior year, it was as if Senior Brother Chen had an epiphany; not to say his grades soared, but they steadily improved. By his senior year, he had already become one of my parents' proudest students.

At that time, many people said Senior Brother Chen was a late bloomer who was accumulating knowledge slowly to make a sudden leap forward, but those who really knew him understood that he was just working harder than everyone else. Maybe Senior Brother Chen really is a late bloomer, but without diligence, no matter how smart, it would have been impossible to achieve his current accomplishments."

"Section the caudate lobe to expose the Inferior Vena Cava, we need to do this all at once, get ready to start." Chen Yu glanced at the Glasses Doctor then turned to the circulating nurse beside him: "Pull down the magnifying glass for me."

"Yes, excuse me." The nurse stepped forward and pulled down the magnifying glasses Chen Yu was wearing on his face.

"But Professor, how do we remove the tumor without opening the heart?" Nakagawa Susumu, seeing Chen Yu ready to deal with the tumor, asked curiously how the tumor that extended along the Inferior Vena Cava into the atrium would be removed.

"Pull out the right lobe of the liver together with the tumor that has entered the atrium, it's as simple as that." Chen Yu glanced at Nakagawa, explained in brief, then reached out to the scrub nurse: "Tissue scissors."

"Pull it out?" Not just Nakagawa, even the Glasses Doctor beside him looked bewildered, much like an underachiever asking a top student for help, and being confused after hearing the explanation.

Chen Yu, seeing the bewildered look on both their faces, couldn't help but say, "Hurry up and help, don't just stand there!"

"Pull down the magnifying glasses!" The Glasses Doctor, upon hearing Chen Yu's command, quickly called out to the nurse beside him, and Nakagawa did the same.

"First assistant, ligate the bile duct here." Seeing the two men prepared, Chen Yu instructed them, his own hands never stopping: "Monopolar electrosurgical unit, second assistant, expand the surgical field."

"Yes, Professor." Hearing Chen Yu's command, Nakagawa, finally able to assist with something other than just suction, quickly responded. Containing his excitement, he followed Chen Yu's instructions to assist the surgery.
