R City Hospital, Surgical Office.
....
An anxious nurse was running through the ward, pushing the door of the office:
"Dr. Blake hurry, Dr. Terra is getting beaten by a patients family."
"What?". Kyle , who had been slurping noodles, almost did a spit-take.
" A patient didnt make it off the operating table this morning, so they surrounded Dr. Terra ". The little nurse explained.
Kyle dropped the chopsticks in his hand and ran with the little nurse all the way to the operating room. When he neared, he saw five or six people surrounding Raphael pushing him around. Raphael looked tired as he stayed silent, letting them push him around. Several nurses were trying to stop this in vain.
"What are you doing?". Kyle ran over and squeezed his body through to block a fierce middle-aged man.
"What am I doing? This quack killed my old man, I want him to pay with his life. "
The middle-aged man was the eldest son of Raphaels patient. He was pointing towards Raphael with heated eyes.
" It was a very risky operation, we've talked about it before the surgery," Kyle said,
"Your family members also signed the waiver."
"We didnt know. "A middle-aged woman cried out,
" I asked about dads complicated lung surgery and asked that your surgical director, Dr.Cage, to do it. But why is this young doctor here, he doesnt have the ability at all, why did he operate on my father? isnt he to blame?"
"Yes, we put out trust in the hospital, yet you treat human lives like grass."
Several people joined in.
It was the patient himself who asked Dr. Terra to operate on him. The head nurse couldnt stand these accusations and loudly interjected on the side.
"He was fooled. " The second daughter of the deceased pointed towards Raphael and said,
" I know that younger doctors with little qualifications dont have many chances to do major surgery, so seeing that my dad is old and confused, he must have cheated and coerced him to sign."
" You're talking nonsense!". The head nurse angrily retorted,
" The patient had too many tumors, and his lungs have become completely necrotic. Coupled with the massive bleeding during the operation, Dr. Terra couldnt have saved him no matter what he did."
"My dad was still alive and well before the operation, how could he be dead just like that?"
" Right, something must have happened during the operation.
Im reporting you."
Raphael raised his head, his eyes blank as he looked at family members, all giving him vicious stares. He walked past Kyle and calmly said:
" Mr. Li was in the later stages of lung cancer. After I opened his chest cavity, it was discovered that his tumor has spread to other internal organs and couldnt be removed anymore. Considering that the patient was old, surgery wasnt recommended, and I started to close the chest. But the patients heart suddenly tremored, and the blood vessels ruptured, inducing hemorrhage. Any attempts of rescue were ineffective and the patient died."
"Whatever excuses you have doesnt change the fact that you killed him. You must give us a proper account of why the blood vessels burst for no reason. "
The middle-aged man yelled as he stepped forward again.
Kyle quickly went past to protect Raphael again. At this time, Dr Luna Heila arrived with the security guard, eventually controlling the situation and ding them towards the Medical Department office.
Then the surgical director who came to see Raphael sighed and said, "Raphael, you go back and rest first, Ill deal with the rest."
"No, Im alright, I can handle it."
Raphael shook his head.
"The patients family members are emotional right now; you should avoid them for now. "
The director advised, " I knew about the patients condition and the patient did ask for you to operate. This shouldnt be a big problem, you should go back first."
Raphael nodded and went to the locker room in a trance.
Kyle was just about to follow him, but a nurse called him to prepare for an upcoming surgery. So in the end, He could only glance towards Raphaels back before turning around and leaving.
"Dr. Terra is really unfortunate. It was clearly the patient who asked Dr. Terra to operate on him."
" Yeah, yeah, those children, when the old man was bedridden no one was round but the moment something happened they suddenly became filial."
"Thats right. And besides, it was our director said that Dr. Terras skills aren't inferior to his."
.
As the nurses talked, Luna listened in for a while before following Raphael to the locker rooms, worried.
Raphael was inside, leaning against his locker. His face was blank and his mind was replaying the operation. The open chest with tumors spread in a large area. If he had found out earlier, he would have never advised the old man to do the surgery. Then perhaps, he would have lived a little longer instead of dying on the operating table.
Raphael fist slammed against a locker.
Luna was outside the door when she heard a loud bang. Concerned, she almost rushed inside, but in the end, she let go of the doorknob.
Raphael stared at the speck of light infront of him and immediately received the plot of the story.
But he had to ask first,
' Why didn't you tell me the severity of the situation before I got here'.
[ I'm sorry host, I thought you could handle it, please forgive me, ]
' We both know that that man is dead , the cancer was already in the last stage, but you didn't tell me '.
[ I'm so sorry host]
'Haah, are there any side missions '
[ Yes Host
1. Protect the special target (1000Sp)
2. Make the male and female leads fall in love (500Sp)]
'This seems interesting, but first , what part of the plot are we at?'
[ The female protagonist was originally supposed to be operated on by you, however due to a failed surgery, the male lead operated on her.
The Special Target would appear one month from now, after the leads have cultivated feelings for each other.]
