Suggestion (1)
[Use the Must Save skill. All abilities temporarily increase by one level.]
After using the skill, I gained confidence.
My heart also sank with the Frozen Heart passive.
puck! puck! puck! puck!
Choi Ki-seok pressed the patient’s chest with his clasped hands. Each time pressure was applied, the patient’s body undulated like waves.
“What happen?”
“what’s the matter?”
Nurse Kyeong-hye Lee and Ji-hye Kim, Je-yeol and Yoon, who are on duty at the thoracic surgery department and are in their third year of residency, entered the bathroom.
They looked at the patient and Choi Ki-seok, who had fallen on the floor, with surprised rabbit eyes.
“Haa… haa… When I came into the bathroom… I was passed out.”
“It’s okay, teacher. Please broadcast CPR and get the ambu bag stretcher.”
Kyunghye Lee nodded at Jihye Yoon’s instructions and returned to the station.
“Code Blue for Thoracic Surgery. Code Blue for Thoracic Surgery. Code Blue for Gastrointestinal Surgery.”
The broadcast spread with electronic sounds.
Pop. Pop. Pop.
Heavy beads of sweat flowed from Choi Ki-seok’s forehead.
I was out of breath as if I had run a marathon. Nevertheless, CPR did not stop.
Beside him, Kim Je-yeol was squeezing an ambulance bag.
Crash.
Several doctors, including the cardiologist on duty, rushed into the bathroom.
“Please move the patient.”
At Jihye Yoon’s words, the doctors put the patient on the stretcher car.
The group ran to the intensive care unit together.
After arriving at the intensive care unit, CPR was continued and a patient monitoring device was placed on the patient.
“Put on a breathing machine and get an intravenous line.”
“Epinephrine. Intravenously.”
“Prepare the defibrillator.”
Jihye Yoon calmly gave instructions.
She is usually icy, but she appears even colder in emergency situations.
‘wow. ‘That’s awesome.’
Kim Je-yeol clicked his tongue as he looked at Choi Ki-seok.
He and Choi Ki-seok, who had limited time, were taking care of the patients. However, Choi Ki-seok proceeded without forgetting any of Yoon Ji-hye’s rapid-fire instructions.
The processing speed was as fast as if it had several hands.
I couldn’t believe I was an intern.
“Everyone, please stand back. 200J!”
When Choi Ki-seok set the charge level to 200J and pressed the charge button, the lamp came on.
“Charge!”
“Clear!”
thud!
As the current flowed, the patient’s body shook.
Unfortunately, there have been no special changes on the monitor yet.
“200J!”
“Charge!”
“Clear!”
CPR continued for some time, along with the use of a defibrillator.
After about 10 minutes, the patient’s vital signs began to gradually return.
Nevertheless, Jihye Yoon’s stern face did not straighten.
“It’s AMI (Acute Myocardial Infarction). That’s serious too.”
Jihye Yoon checked the electrocardiogram and frowned.
The patient had ST-segment elevation and Q-wave changes. At this level, the coronary artery must be reopened.
‘Because I was a patient who would undergo CABG (coronary artery bypass grafting) anyway.’
Jihye Yoon nodded slightly.
“Since spontaneous circulation has returned, let’s go into surgery.”
“yes!”
Choi Ki-seok and Kim Je-yeol responded to Yoon Ji-hye’s words at the same time.
* * *
That evening.
The emergency CABG surgery was completed successfully.
After the patient returned to the intensive care unit, the three people who performed the surgery decided to have a late-night snack at the medical center.
However, as Kim Je-yeol, who received the call, went to the emergency room, only Choi Ki-seok and Yoon Ji-hye remained in the hospital.
“Delivery has arrived.”
“yes.”
Choi Ki-seok calculated the membership fee and placed the plastic bag on the table.
Today’s late night snack is spicy tteokbokki.
The bright red seasoning immediately caught my eye.
“Let’s eat by ourselves first.”
“Yes. I will eat well.”
Ki-seok Choi finished setting up and put tteokbokki in his mouth.
The sweet seasoning enveloped my mouth, and then the spicy taste suddenly hit me.
I say I like spicy food, but I thought this was going too far.
I took a few bites and immediately reached for the drink.
On the other hand, Jihye Yoon calmly swallowed her tteokbokki.
“Are you not sick?”
“I think I ate this much.”
Choi Ki-seok clicked his tongue at Yoon Ji-hye’s answer.
Not only does she act like ice, but her tongue also seems to be made of ice.
While eating tteokbokki, Choi Ki-seok looked at Yoon Ji-hye.
Suddenly, the images of him ordering CPR overlapped with those of him performing the procedure in the operating room.
She always keeps her cool.
Choi Ki-seok can do that because he has the Frozen Heart passive, but I was curious about how Yoon Ji-hye could do that.
Even her teacher, Song Myeong-jin, cannot keep her cool as much as Yoon Ji-hye.
A conference room where conversation is interrupted.
Only the sound of two people eating a late-night snack could be heard intermittently.
Surprisingly, it was Yoon Ji-hye who broke the silence first.
“You did well today.”
A faint smile appeared on Yoon Ji-hye’s lips as she looked at Choi Ki-seok.
Ki-Seok Choi not only performed CPR appropriately, but also assisted the surgery flawlessly.
With skills that are unbelievable for an intern.
Choi Ki-seok’s appearance today resembles the person she once loved madly and respected at the same time.
Should I say that no matter what difficulties come my way, I have seen people with anticipation and thinking, ‘I wonder if this person will be able to do anything.’
“But Professor.”
“why?”
“You just smiled at me, right?”
Yoon Ji-hye blinked at Choi Ki-seok’s point.
“I?”
“Yes. You definitely smiled at me just now. I think this is the first time I’ve seen a professor smile at a staff member.”
“No. I saw it wrong.”
Jihye Yoon shook her head. But before I knew it, my cheeks had taken on a ripe peach color.
“If you’ve finished eating, go quickly. I have something to work on.”
“I’ll go after cleaning up.”
“It’s okay, just go.”
Because Yoon Ji-hye kicked him out, Choi Ki-seok had no choice but to leave the conference room.
Tiring!
[You have obtained a piece of heart (2/2).]
[The mission is successful and a special skill is given.]
‘Good.’
Choi Ki-seok clenched his fists.
* * *
The next morning.
Choi Ki-seok woke up early and read the paper sent by Song Myeong-jin.
I have been reading papers consistently since I joined the Department of Thoracic Surgery. Not only that, but thanks to the buff, I was able to organize the contents in my head.
Nowadays, knowledge about thoracic surgery has become considerably richer.
Click!
I sent my review and headed straight to the hideout.
In front of the hideout, as always, there was a Styrofoam box containing cow intestines.
Choi Ki-seok took the box and entered the hideout.
A sheet was laid out on the table and various surgical tools were prepared.
It was such a familiar task now that the setup was completed in a blink of an eye.
[Uses the Dragon’s Eye skill.]
[Provides the optimal field of view required for surgery.]
[You can use zoom-in mode and zoom-out mode as needed.]
Ssssssssssssssssssssssssssss.
He held a scalpel in his hand and cut out the cow’s heart.
CABG surgery continues today.
Even with the help of the buff, it was overwhelming.
Choi Ki-seok realizes every day how big the difference is between watching others do it and doing it himself.
How much time has passed?
“Whew…”
I cleaned up after myself and wiped the sweat from my forehead with the back of my hand.
At first glance, it seemed like it was standing still, but little by little, the house was speeding up.
First of all, unnecessary movements have been reduced.
As treatment accuracy has increased, the need to touch a task multiple times has disappeared.
Choi Ki-seok went up to the hospital room.
On the way, I checked the newly acquired skills through the status window.
[Mind’s Eye]
– Use your mind’s eye to understand other people’s emotions.
-Other people’s emotions are expressed in various colors.
– You are already at max level.
The moment I checked the skill description, I sighed.
I completed the mission after going through a lot of hardships, but I gained a strange skill.
What I don’t like most of all is that the new skill has nothing to do with healing.
In retrospect, I think it was because the mission itself had nothing to do with treatment.
‘What can I use this for?’
Choi Ki-seok rubbed his chin.
I checked the skills yesterday and was so disappointed that I never tried them.
Even today, I needed to think about its use.
[Use the mind’s eye.]
[Express other people’s emotions with color.] When
the notification rang, my vision changed subtly.
When you look at a person, you see a heart shape near the heart, and it is filled with color.
‘that’s interesting.’
Choi Ki-seok chuckled as he looked at the people he encountered.
Most of the people passing by had a green tint. The green color seemed to signify a normal state without any special emotions.
“Hey, why don’t you apologize?”
“Why should I apologize?”
I turned my head towards where the fight took place.
The hearts of the two people were bright red.
Considering that the color red appears when one is angry, it seems that the standard for matching emotions and colors does not deviate from common sense.
“Superintern teacher. Hi.”
As I was passing the station, Hana Kang greeted me brightly.
Her heart color is yellow.
The reason why there is so much bright energy around Hana Kang.
I was able to confirm once again that it was because she had bright energy.
“Good morning.”
Choi Ki-seok received greetings and went to provide treatment to the ward.
Procedures such as inserting and removing dressings or urine lines, or changing chest tubes were no match for him.
I finished my work in the ward quickly and entered the conference room.
Unexpectedly, there was a customer who came first.
This is Yoon Ji-hye.
“hello.”
Yoon Ji-hye lightly raised her hand in response to Choi Ki-seok’s greeting.
“I guess you’re busy these days.”
“Because I’m preparing a thesis.”
Jihye Yoon said without taking her eyes off the monitor.
While Choi Ki-seok was cleaning, he looked at Yoon Ji-hye in his mind’s eye. My heart turned green, as if I didn’t have any special emotions.
I printed out the surgery patient, put it on the table, and made coffee.
A sweet scent spread throughout the country.
widely!
“Please eat.”
Choi Ki-seok placed a cup filled with mixed coffee on the side where Yoon Ji-hye was working.
Yoon Ji-hye looked at Choi Ki-seok and the coffee in turn, then drank the coffee with an expressionless face.
Normally I would have thought that was the case, but today was different.
Because Choi Ki-seok was using the mind’s eye.
He didn’t miss that part of her heart turned a light pink, albeit briefly.
If we dig into the meaning, it was like this.
Jihye Yoon may only be acting cold on the outside, but on the inside, she is experiencing emotional changes like a normal person.
‘Is this unexpected income?’
A smile appeared on Choi Ki-seok’s lips.
“professor.”
“why?”
“You look a little tired these days. Let me give you a massage.”
“It’s okay.”
“I won’t disturb you while you’re working.”
Choi Ki-seok threw the bait once more and examined Yoon Ji-hye’s heart.
If you really don’t like the proposal, it should come in red or another strong color, but surprisingly, it turned out to be a light scarlet color.
I didn’t know the meaning of scarlet, but it didn’t seem like she disliked it, so I boldly approached Jihye Yoon.
“I said it was done.”
“Don’t worry about me, just work comfortably.”
He massaged Yoon Ji-hye’s shoulders from behind.
When the massage began in earnest, Jihye Yoon showed no resistance. Instead of doing any work he was doing, he seemed to be enjoying the massage.
The heart color is still light scarlet.
‘It’s better than I thought.’
Choi Ki-seok couldn’t believe the current situation.
The fact that he is giving a massage to Yoon Ji-hye, who is called the Ice Witch.
In fact, Jang Hyuk-pil is the only person who is close to her within the government.
Other staff members could not approach her easily due to her cold attitude.
However, Choi Ki-seok succeeded in giving her a massage through his mind’s eye.
‘No way, this skill. ‘Did you make it for me to be in a relationship?’
Ki-Seok Choi thought about that and laughed.
“How do you feel? Feeling a little cooler?”
“thank you.”
When Choi Ki-seok finished the massage and returned to his seat, Yoon Ji-hye said something indifferently.
Soon, partners and teachers entered the conference room one by one.
‘Professor. Why…’
Ki-Seok Choi bit his lip when he saw Myung-Jin Song sitting in his seat.
His heart seen through the mind’s eye.
It was a dull gray color.
