Chapter 385: The Trickiest Situation

Translator: Larbre Studio  Editor: Larbre Studio

When the group arrived at the hospital, they saw Winnip sitting outside the operating room, crying.

Karim and Howard walked around in panic and kept looking at the operating room door.

“Mom.”

As soon as Winnip saw them, she charged into Laurent’s arms and cried loudly.

“It’s all my fault! If not Kane wouldn’t be injured!”

Laurent comforted Winnip. Perhaps he would only display his maturity as a husband in such a circumstance.

Chen Zhao and Faur pulled Karim and Howard and asked them about the situation.

Soon, their expressions changed.

Kane’s injury was very severe. Although he did not die immediately, the gunshot was still fatal, given that he was so close to the gun.

According to a preliminary investigation, the bullet penetrated his skull, slowed down and was stuck inside his skull.

However, the scraps entered his left cerebral cortex and were embedded in his telencephalon.

The scraps were the most deadly. If they were not taken out, Kane might die anytime.

Moreover, the doctors had yet to confirm the impact of the damage to his brain.

There was very little information available. Chen Zhao and Faur could not even know enough, let alone make a judgment.

On the other hand, Winnip kept asking if Kane would die.

Although she would frequently scold the three bodyguards, she really treated them as her family, her children.

She could not accept the fact that Kane was injured this badly in order to protect her.

“Chen…” Faur looked at Chen Zhao.

Chen Zhao waved his hand. “If it’s within my capabilities, I’ll help, but I don’t know the exact situation.”

Finally, after three whole hours of waiting, the door of the operating room opened.

The surgeon walked out with a solemn face.

“I’m sorry. You can go in and see him for the last time.”

Winnip fainted at once. Laurent quickly hugged her.

“Doctor, I need to know his exact condition.” Chen Zhao stopped the surgeon.

“You are?”

“I’m a doctor too.”

“The bullet scraps are now scattered in his telencephalon. They’re all small and very difficult to remove. Some have even caused functional impairment and intracranial hemorrhage. Nobody can save him,” the surgeon said.

“I hope to perform surgery on him myself,” Chen Zhao said.

“You?” The surgeon stared at Chen Zhao. “Sir, please do not joke around. You’re not a doctor in our hospital. In fact, I don’t even know if you’re a doctor, so you can’t perform surgery on a patient here.”

“I’m a medical professor of UCLA,” Chen Zhao said.

“That doesn’t change anything. It’s a clearly stated rule in our hospital.”

Chen Zhao glanced at the name tag before the surgeon’s chest: Hill Nandes.

“Mr. Nandes, since you’ve already determined that the patient is dead for sure, why don’t you give me a chance? It can’t be worse than this, can it?”

Hill Nandes was somewhat hesitant. “I can’t decide on this.”

“Then who can?”

“Our dean.”


“Can you please talk to your dean?”

“I… I’ll try, but can you show me your license?”

“I didn’t bring my license. You can call UCLA instead. You should be able to get the college’s number. Also, the head of LA Chantilly Hospital can prove it too.”

“I’m an oncologist in Chantilly Hospital. Here’s my medical license. I can confirm that my friend is an expert in both neurosurgery and internal medicine.”

Hill Nandes glanced at Faur’s senior medical license and said, “I know you, Ms. Faur. I was present during your talk on an advanced medical seminar, so I believe in you. Still, I can’t confirm if the dean will agree.”

“Then please go and tell the dean.”

“Alright, I’ll go now.”

Once Hill Nandes left, the group entered the operating room and surrounded the operating table.

“You all go out now. Leave the rest to me.”

“Chen, what are you doing?”

“Saving him,” Chen Zhao said.

“But the dean has yet to agree.”

“So are we not saving him?” Chen Zhao asked. “Howard, Karim, stop anyone who attempts to enter later. Before I come out, don’t let anyone disturb me.”

“Chen, can you really save Kane?” Karim asked in reluctance.

“Just go out now. Don’t waste more time. Kane can’t wait.”

“Do you need my help?” Faur asked.

“You know the answer.”

“Alright, please save Kane.”

“I’ll try my best.”

Faur was even more worried. It was the first time Chen Zhao said he would try his best.

In the past, he was always so confident.

No matter what illness his patient had, he was so confident.

Even against a patient who had been in a coma for five years, he showed no signs of retreat or doubt.

But now, he would only try his best.

Kane’s injury was definitely more serious than Faur had imagined.

After the operating room door closed again, Chen Zhao destroyed the camera in the room.

Then, he cut opened Kane’s skull again.

After some examination, Chen Zhao summoned a few brain-eating insects.

Brain-eating insects were very tiny, each perhaps only as large as the tip of a needle.

Chen Zhao controlled the insects to climb into Kane’s telencephalon, searching for scraps.

Because of the fragility of the brain, doctors could not open the telencephalon with the current medical technology.

After all, it contained the viscous brain plasma. It could not be opened physically.

Brain-eating insects avoided the problem perfectly. The insects climbed inside the brain, looking for and devouring any scraps.

Of course, consuming the scraps was fatal for the insects, and they would react after eating two or three pieces. Chen Zhao was not really concerned since the insects were more like consumables.

He only needed the brain-eating insects to bring the scraps out of the brain. If any of them died, he would summon more.

Just then, Chen Zhao heard some people arguing outside.

The people from the hospital must have returned, but they were stopped by Karim and the rest.

Nonetheless, Chen Zhao could not care about what was going on outside. He had to focus on the surgery.

Chen Zhao also used the brain-eating insects to bring medicine to specific places.

The places were all bleeding, which could hardly be stopped by surgery.
