As soon as Benjamin entered the hospital, he saw some chaos inside, with countless young nurses whispering to each other.
"What's wrong? What happened?" Benjamin walked over and asked.
A young nurse with an innocent appearance looked around and then whispered, "It's the patient in the special care unit. His condition relapsed today, causing a major stir in our hospital. All the experts have been summoned there. I heard it's a complete mess inside."
Benjamin suddenly realized what happened.
There was a particularly important patient in the special care ward of Eastern Sea Hospital, and he had heard about it. However, this was none of his concern.
Benjamin was about to go back to his office to work. At this time, Sophia hurried over.
"Benjamin, hurry up, follow me to the special care unit!" Sophia said anxiously.
Benjamin was stunned momentarily and said quickly, "Director Scoot, are you going to see the important patient in the special care unit?"
"Yes!" Sophia nodded.
Benjamin frowned, "As far as I know, that patient has some mental problems. As a surgeon, can you diagnose mental problems?"
Sophia said helplessly, "Do you think I am willing to go? It's the hospital director's order to have all specialists there."
"Then why should I go there?" Benjamin was very confused.
Sophia rolled her eyes at Benjamin, "I heard that the patient's family members are here; they hold a high position and influence, so the director wants to show our hospital's dedication by having more doctors present.:
Benjamin finally understood and felt helpless.
He followed Sophia to the conference room next to the special care ward. The conference room was already full of people. Except for a few men and women in luxurious clothes in the middle, the rest were doctors in white coats.
At this time, Vice President Jacob Feng was on the stage talking about the patient's condition.
"In the past two years, we have been stabilizing the patient's condition, and the patient's recovery has been pretty good. But today, the patient's condition suddenly relapsed, and his mental state is now very poor. We have used instruments to check but can't find anything wrong. We've laid out the patient's situation before all doctors here. Please see if you have any solutions."
Everyone immediately picked up the medical records before them and flipped through the pages.
"Weird thing!"
Sophia looked through the medical records and frowned, "All the instruments in our hospital are used, even precision instruments from abroad, but none of them can find out the cause of the patient's disease."
"Director Scott, this is a matter for the psychiatrists; let's not add to the confusion!" Benjamin said with a smile.
Sophia sighed, "A doctor's duty is to save lives and heal the wounded. It's a pity I don't understand mental health."
At this time, a young nurse suddenly broke into the conference room.
"Something's wrong! The patient in the special care unit is in trouble!"
Upon hearing this, Dean Anthony Zion and Vice Dean Jacob Foster immediately rushed out of the door, followed by countless doctors.
Soon, the originally spacious room in the special care ward was packed with people.
The patient's family members also ran over. One of them, a strong man with a square face, asked anxiously, "What's going on? How is my dad's condition?"
Anthony looked at many instruments and the patient's condition.
The patient's face looked very painful, and he was twitching constantly.
Anthony used various instruments, but the patient's heart rate was still beating. Finally, a low "beep" sound came from the machine.
Anthony, crestfallen, announced, "I'm sorry, the patient has... passed away."
"What?" The man with the square face ran over and grabbed Anthony's sleeves, "Dean Zion, what on earth is going on? Until now, you haven't found out the cause of my father's illness. I trusted you so much, and you've let me down!"
"Mr. Lee, please calm down!" Anthony said quickly, "We have used all methods, but all in vain. I suspect... the patient might have hysteria... also known as being possessed by a ghost..."
The man was stunned for a moment and growled, "Dean Zion, don't forget, you are a doctor! How can you believe in such superstitious things?"
"I don't want to believe it, but it seems to be the case!" Anthony was also helpless.
This patient was of high status, and many hospitals had seen him, but none could help.
To make Eastern Sea Hospital develop better, Anthony took the initiative to admit this patient, but he did not expect that the cause of the disease would not be found until the patient died.
"Benjamin, what are you doing?"
Sophia's voice suddenly came, and then everyone looked at Benjamin.
Benjamin was standing in front of the hospital bed, continuously patting the patient's chest with his hands.
Anthony was furious and immediately walked over and shouted, "Who are you? What do you want to do? The patient is already dead; why did you slap his body?"
"He's not dead yet!" Benjamin said solemnly, "Get away quickly and don't delay my treatment. If you delay for a while, he will really die!"
"Presumptuous!"
When Jacob saw this situation, he was immediately overjoyed and hurriedly ran over and said to Anthony, "Dean Zion, this guy is the Benjamin Lincoln I told you. He doesn't focus on work, doesn't strive to learn or improve, and just thinks about climbing relationships. And today, he has done such a thing, unforgivable!"
Anthony's face was grim, "Dr. Lincoln, get out now!"
"He's not dead yet, and no one of you can save him except me!" Benjamin frowned and said, "I can leave, but don't regret it!"
"Rampant!" Jacob pointed at Benjamin's nose and cursed angrily, "Benjamin Lincoln, do you really think you are the most legendary doctor reincarnated? Even the most legendary doctor reincarnated can't save the patient!"
Sophia, who was on the side, also hurried over and said beside Benjamin, "Benjamin, apologize to the patient's family immediately!"
Benjamin's expression was firm, "I said he can still be saved now. If you delay any longer, he will really die!"
"Young man, you have the audacity!" Jacob finally found an opportunity to punish Benjamin and immediately said, "If you don't leave, I will call the security guard!"
At this time, the man with the square face came to Benjamin's side and asked doubtfully, "Are you sure you can save my father?"
"Sure!" Benjamin nodded.
"Okay, then help me quickly!" the man said.
Jacob hurriedly came over, "Mr. Lee, he is just an intern doctor in our hospital. You must not believe his words!"
The man said impatiently, "Shut up; I don't want to listen to you. Anyway, my father is already like this, so I might as well try a desperate remedy. Maybe this kid really has a way."
