Chapter 369 - A Slim Chance of Survival (1/2)

Lu Fei cleared his throat and said, “Here’s the deal. The injury is very serious. The dagger has pierced his chest. The worst thing is that it is close to his heart and has even injured some peripheral tissue of his heart. In this case, it’s a miracle that he didn’t die on the spot.

The operation must be carried out immediately to remove the dagger. Otherwise, he will only live 2 to 3 hours.”

Upon hearing that Feng Zixiong’s injury was so serious, Nalan Wuxia said anxiously, “Doctor, no matter how much we have to pay, you must please save my colleague.”

Lu Fei said, “We will try our best to have the operation immediately, but you should be prepared mentally. This operation is very risky.”

Then, another uniformed policeman crossed through the crowd and asked nervously, “What about the risks he will face?”

He was Feng Ziying, Feng Zixiong’s brother. He had heard that his brother had been injured and had just arrived there.

Lu Fei paused and said, “The rate of success is less than 5%.”

Upon hearing this, Feng Ziying immediately exclaimed agitatedly, “What? Less than 5%? What’s the difference between this and death?”

Wang Jianfeng and Nalan Wuxia’s faces were also very cold. A 5% rate of success meant that Feng Zixiong had a great chance of dying in the operating room. There was not much to say. He was basically already dead.

The corridor was silent. Some policemen even shed tears for their colleague.

Lu Fei said, “There’s no way. He is in a very bad condition. This is all we can do.”

Feng Ziying slowly closed his eyes as his face turned pale and he teared up. This was his brother. He could not accept this fact.

Wang Jianfeng patted him on the shoulder and comforted him by saying, “Don’t be so disappointed. There is still a chance of survival.”

There was a slim chance of survival for Feng Zixiong. It was really hopeless.

However, Feng Ziying also knew very well that there was still a chance if he had the surgery. Without the surgery, a few hours later, his brother would die. He didn’t have a choice.

After trying to calm down for a while, he said in a trembling voice, “Doctor Lu, please make sure that you will save my brother.”

“As a doctor, I will try my best.” Lu Fei nodded and said, “Since you have no objections, I will arrange the operation immediately.”

“Wait a moment.”

Suddenly, a voice came from the side.

Everyone turned around and saw a young doctor in his 30s. Nalan Wuxia’s expression changed a little. When she saw this man, her mood suddenly became stable. Maybe this man could work a miracle.

While looking at Lu Fei, Qin Haodong said, “I want to ask why the risk of the surgery is so great.”

Lu Fei glanced at Qin Haodong. Although he was wearing a white coat, he didn’t know the man. He thought Qin Haodong was a family member of the injured policeman. Thus, he said patiently, “The injury is close to the heart, so the risk of the surgery is great.”

Qin Haodong said, “If I had a way to protect his heart, would the chance of success increase greatly?”

Lu Fei said, “In theory, if we could protect the heart and ensure normal beating during the operation, the success rate of the operation could be more than 90%. However, this is only a theoretical guess. It is not possible.”

“Well, I have a way to protect his heart. Give me one hour.”

When Qin Haodong said this, everyone was shocked except for Nalan Wuxia, who knew his identity.

Feng Ziying strode over to him, took his hand, and said in a trembling voice, “Doctor, do you really have a way to save my brother?”

“Don’t worry, I can do it!”

Qin Haodong spoke confidently. He was well aware that he needed to be confident this time, or no one would believe in him.

Lu Fei looked at him doubtfully and said, “I want to know what you can do to protect his heart.”

Qin Haodong said, “I’d like to introduce myself to you. My name is Tang Feng and I’m a doctor at the traditional Chinese medicine department. I’ll boil a decoction for an hour. When he drinks it, his heart will be protected.”

“Are you a new doctor of the traditional Chinese medicine department?” When he learned that Qin Haodong was not a relative of the injured policeman, Lu Fei’s face immediately changed and he said, “Don’t be mischievous! What do you think traditional Chinese medicine is? Fairy soup? You can’t protect his heart by making him drink your decoction. This is just nonsense. What’s the scientific basis behind it? Tell me.”

No wonder his reaction was so intense. Many doctors in Guangren Hospital were calling for closing down the department of traditional Chinese medicine. Lu Fei was one of the leaders of these people. After all, he had always despised traditional Chinese medicine.

“Don’t say that this is scientific or unscientific. I’m confident that I can protect his heart!”

Qin Haodong spoke loudly.

“You’re kidding me. I don’t know what makes you so confident. There is no scientific basis behind traditional Chinese medicine,” Lu Fei said with a scornful expression, “Even if I believed you, would the family of the injured policeman believe you?”

He then turned to Wang Jianfeng and the other people and said, “What do you think? From my personal point of view, I don’t believe that traditional Chinese medicine can cure diseases.”

Wang Jianfeng hesitated. Although he was able to fight decisively when solving cases, he didn’t know anything about medicine. He didn’t know how to answer for a while.

“I believe Doctor Tang. Do as he says.”

It was Nalan Wuxia who had spoken. The others didn’t know about Qin Haodong’s ability, but she knew.

“Uh…”
