Chapter 253 - 254: Searching for the BOSS
Chapter 253: Chapter 254: Searching for the BOSS
Early the next morning, Chen Cang arrived at the office quite early.
As soon as he entered the hospital gate, the system prompt continued to sound.
[Ding! Daily task triggered: complete 10 Tendon Suture Surgeries, Task Reward: Training in Kessler’s Suturing Technique.]
Chen Cang was momentarily stunned!
He felt his breathing become somewhat labored; he had a vague feeling that this time the system was going for something big!
Was it possibly going to make him master every suturing method accurately?
Thinking this, Chen Cang couldn’t help but get excited!
Tendon suturing had developed over several hundred years, and people’s understanding of tendons had deepened.
And at each period, the understanding of tendon suturing was different.
From the physical tensile strength of the last era to the restorative power of the seventies, to the endogenous healing power of the six-strand suturing method led by Professor Tang in the nineties, and so on, concepts kept changing until today, when anti-adhesion has become one of the main research directions in tendon healing.
It is also the development direction that most hand surgeons are researching.
All of a sudden, Chen Cang felt a sense of belonging to the hand surgery community. Thinking this, Chen Cang quickly shook his head – how could he be bound by mere hand surgery when he was aiming to dominate the field of surgery!
At that moment, an earth-shattering idea came to Chen Cang: Dominating the field of surgery starts with hand surgery!
After arriving at the office, Chen Cang suddenly found that Qin Yue was already there, doodling at the desk.
Qin Yue heard someone coming in and saw Chen Cang; her face brightened, and she quickly got up and scurried over.
“Chen Cang, come quickly, I have something to show you!”
Chen Cang asked in surprise, “What is it?”
Laughing, Qin Yue said, “After I went back yesterday, thinking back on your surgery video, I found some details a bit blurry, so I retrieved your surgery video from surveillance but it wasn’t very clear. So I brought my home camera!”
After saying this, Qin Yue took out her phone’s camera with a triumphant air, “Wait, wait, wait! See?”
Chen Cang was dumbfounded, looking at the sophisticated-looking camera in front of Qin Yue and wasn’t sure: “Is this… appropriate?”
Qin Yue giggled, “What’s inappropriate about it! Look, I even brought the tripod! During the surgery, we can just set it up somewhere.”
“I’ve decided to record your surgeries from now on, then go back and break them down for review, comparing meaningful surgical details – we might make some discoveries!”
Seeing Qin Yue’s excitement, Chen Cang couldn’t help but feel a little concerned, “Did you not sleep well last night?”
Qin Yue let out a sigh, “I don’t have a profound understanding of Tendon Suture Surgery, so recently I’ve been studying up every night after going home – looking up materials, hoping not to hold you back!”
Chen Cang asked, “Why did you come so early?”
Qin Yue chuckled without answering. If she had come late, how could she have sneaked out the camera – it was her father Qin Xiaoyuan’s prized possession!
Chen Cang smiled and sincerely said, “Thank you, Qin Yue!”
Qin Yue snorted, “Don’t mention it!”
At that time, Wang Yong walked in, his face showing the fatigue of a night shift. Seeing the camera in Chen Cang’s hands, he paused!
“Uh? Professor Chen… You’re all set with this camera?”
The remark was quite ordinary, but why did Chen Cang always feel that something was off?
…
…
During this period, there was an abundance of cases, and Chen Cang felt deeply fulfilled. He worked from dawn to late into the night, almost entirely performing surgeries.
What moved Chen Cang was Qin Yue. This young girl worked around the clock, and her dark circles grew increasingly pronounced.
The daily tasks kept updating. Initially, the suturing techniques Chen Cang heard of included the LAhey method, Becker method, Savage method, and the like. Towards the end, all sorts of strange and chaotic methods surfaced, but after looking up information, Chen Cang found that these methods were in accordance with the concepts and representative methods of different eras.
However, this truly validated what Professor Bunnell once said: Each method has its most suitable growing environment. Your job is to find the most appropriate suturing method based on the particular characteristics of the disease, that is, the specificity of the Achilles tendon.
Every day, Chen Cang could feel himself making progress!
With over a dozen surgeries each day, Chen Cang felt more and more at ease.
As an assistant, Qin Yue could clearly see the changes in Chen Cang!
In every surgery, Qin Yue was the sole assistant and the only spectator.
She witnessed, firsthand, how Chen Cang seemed to be constantly changing, perfecting, making progress time after time!
This astonished Qin Yue.
Just where was the limit of this young man?
Initially, Qin Yue had only a vague understanding of tendon suture techniques, but even so, when she witnessed the fluent Tendon Suture Surgery Chen Cang performed on the injured detective Wu Gang, it had been a shock to her at the time!
However, compared to the Chen Cang of today, the difference was truly immense!
And now, Qin Yue’s understanding of Tendon Suture Surgery deepened by the day. Every day after work, she consulted various Chinese and foreign literature to constantly renew her ideas and perspectives on tendon suturing.
But after she exported the videos from the camera…
Watching Chen Cang’s procedures with her understanding of tendon suturing, she found them unfathomable!
At this moment, Qin Yue truly believed that Chen Cang’s initial words were no joke.
And the Chen method of Tendon Suture, Chen Cang was serious about it too.
In the blink of an eye, a month had passed.
When Chen Cang once again entered the ward, the system’s prompt sounded.
[Ding! Daily task: Complete a complex Tendon Suture Surgery (Tendon monster level greater than 40). Reward for task completion: In-depth specialized training on the Tang method (including M-Tang and other derived methods) of tendon suturing.]
Chen Cang paused, the Tang method? Were you finally ready to come out?
Also, this time the specialized training is labeled as in-depth. Could there be a difference?
However, completing a level 40 tendon suturing monster was a bit too challenging. It wasn’t about not being able to defeat a level 40 tendon monster, but about whether he could encounter one at all.
After all, Chen Cang had completed more than four hundred cases of tendon suturing by now, but he had never encountered a boss monster; most were ordinary tendon injuries around level twenty or so. A level 40 tendon monster…
Level 40, that was at least a boss monster, or even a king-class wild monster.
Where could he even find one?
But Chen Cang was truly looking forward to the Tang method, as it was a highly-rated suturing method for tendon repair, and the Tang family’s zoning was renowned internationally. It was very appealing.
Just then, the phone in the emergency room rang. Nurse Xiao Lin took the call and shouted, “Doctor Chen, you have a phone call!”
