With a bit of black skin, he looked quite affable and not very old.
Emily frowned. She didn't know him, so she asked in confusion, "Who are you looking for?"
The man ignored her and looked inside. Then he asked her very politely, "Is Dr. Chin here? I am his colleague!"
When Emily heard that he was Simon's colleague, she immediately put up her guard. Especially when she thought of the medical staff who suddenly changed their attitude when she went to pick Simon up that day, she immediately asked with an unfriendly look, "What's the matter?"
The man seemed to be intimidated by her, and he hemmed and hawed there for a while.
At this time, the steady footsteps behind her sounded. After Simon heard the noise, he also strode over. When he saw the man standing outside the door, he slightly frowned. It was his colleague in the hospital, and also a doctor in the same department, but he was just a junior doctor who had just graduated from the university of medical sciences for a year.
After thinking for a while, Simon said, "Come in first!"
The reason Simon allowed him in was actually very simple. The man was probably one of the few people in the hospital who did not keep away from him.
When Emily heard that, she humphed and turned her body to the side to let him in.
The man followed them into the living room. Because Emily kept staring at him, he was very embarrassed and sat there rubbing his hands from time to time.
When Simon saw this, he slightly raised his chin and said, "Emily, you go to pick up two cups of water!"
"Oh!" Emily snorted and went to do that.
Simon asked calmly, "Mr. Linzell, did the director send you here?"
"Yes!" Mr. Linzell immediately nodded.
Upon hearing this, he had his own speculation in his heart. "Now I am suspended from the aid work. Is it the colleagues in the hospital worried? Do you come here to tell me not to go back to the hospital anymore?"
"No, no!" Mr. Linzell quickly shook his head and explained. "I came here today for another thing..."
When he finished speaking about that matter, even Emily, who walked over with paper cups, was
shocked.
She looked at Simon subconsciously, and there was a flash of astonishment in his eyes. Then he frowned and asked in a deep voice, "Are you sure that lady wants me to perform an operation for her?"
"Yes, Dr. Chin!" Mr. Linzell nodded.
It seemed that he was afraid that Simon wouldn't believe it, so he kept on saying, "The patient is now in ICU. Because of the complex condition of her illness, she has to undergo a thoracotomy, but no one in the hospital can do it except you! Ahem... We've also reflected on your condition to the patient, saying that you have AIDS. We've also explained to her the possibility of infection during the operation, but the patient still insists on having you perform the operation!"
Simon was stunned.
In the operating room of the hospital.
Hearing the footsteps, Emily stood up from the hard red chair. She saw Simon, who had changed into a green surgical suit, coming over from the end of the corridor. His tall and straight figure cast a long shadow on the ground.
It had been such a long time since she last saw him dressed like this. She actually felt a little sad and bitter.
In fact, after Mr. Linzell left, Simon fell into an ideological struggle. After hesitating for a long time, he finally agreed.
After all, it was a very stressful thing.
He was a doctor, but he was also a patient. As a doctor, he had responsibility, such responsibility was related to his conscience.
When the elevator opened on the other side, the woman who also wore her surgical clothes was carried over by the nurse. She looked very weak, her mouth and nose were covered with an oxygen mask, and her breathing was very slow.
