Chapter 1974 U Transcendence Event (Sixty-Five)

Chapter 1948 U Beyond Event (Sixty-five)

After a dull metallic collision, the door behind Schiller closed, and what appeared in front of him was pitch black. There was no light in the room, so he could not see anything.

The ethereal and strange female voice of the rag doll sounded again.

"Life in the world is not equal. The profession of doctor always has a deeper understanding of this. Some people choose to strive for equality, while others choose to make them more unequal."

"Your principle is to do as much as you are paid. People pay high medical fees for your superb technical level and have high expectations, but have you really met these expectations?"

"Haven't you already tested my professional level?"

"Is it like this every time?"

With a "ding", the light in the room turned on, but it was a spotlight that would cast a clear circular light spot on the ground.

In the range of light, there was an operating table, on which lay a pale little boy who looked only five or six years old.

He looked alive, but there was no pulse or heartbeat, and his chest was not moving, as if his time had stopped.

"He is five years old and has congenital heart disease. He became ill three minutes ago, and his condition has reached the point where he must undergo surgery."

An X-ray fell from the roof. Schiller picked it up and took a look at the light above his head. He only needed this one look to find that he was familiar with this heart.

Typical symptoms of tricuspid atresia, combined with pulmonary atresia, the last operation Schiller performed as a surgeon.

It was just that the child on the operating table was just one month old at that time, and the boy was already five years old.

To be honest, this can be called a miracle of life. If most patients with severe tricuspid atresia do not undergo surgery in time, the mortality rate is very high. Most of them will die of organ failure caused by systemic ischemia, let alone five years old. Not many people live past one year old.

Most of these surgeries require multiple stages of surgery, and the sooner the better. Although the child is too young and the organs are relatively small, the surgery is more difficult, but the survival rate is also higher.

But if the child is too old, there will be another extremely difficult situation, that is, the child's organs have begun to fail, and the vital signs are not enough to support the end of the operation.

Young children are more likely to die in the recovery period, but children of this age are more likely to die on the operating table because their bodies have been on the verge of collapse due to years of worsening conditions.

This boy is obviously like this. Schiller has no doubt that because of long-term ischemia, his organ development may be only 50% of that of his peers, and his functionality may not even reach half.

If this situation is still alive, it can indeed be called a miracle if it is not for this rag doll to create a person.

As the saying goes, surgeons are not afraid of complex diseases, but only of low physical signs. In addition to the low survival rate causing great psychological pressure on doctors, death during surgery is a big blow to medical staff.

Especially for those surgeries that are not complicated, but require repeated emergency treatment and continuous maintenance of vital signs, everyone tried their best but still failed to save the patient, and could only watch the patient die. It is a light blow, and it is easy to leave a psychological shadow on people.

If it is an intern who enters the operating room for the first time, he will feel uncomfortable for at least a month after returning, and dream about why he was not saved.

Of course, for patients who survived the operation but died after the operation due to complications or other reasons, although doctors will feel regretful, after all, they did not face death directly and would not be so powerless.

The moment Schiller saw the film, he knew what the doll meant.

Pathology once revealed to the priest in the Nehelet Manor that he had performed surgery on a child, and the operation was successful, but the child died for other reasons.

And this time the child did not need other reasons, and it was extremely difficult to save his life on the operating table.

In this room, there is no machine except a heart rate monitoring instrument, and there is no emergency condition at all. Vital signs can only be judged by doctors' experience, not to mention the sanitary conditions.

Let's put it this way. If you perform surgery under such circumstances, it's almost like repairing Gundam with a stone tool. Let alone a patient with tricuspid valve closure, even a doctor who sends in an acute appendicitis patient will have to think twice.

Schiller was about to speak when a TV hidden in the dark corner of the room lit up. A man's face appeared on the TV. Schiller looked closely and found that it was Thomas Wayne.

But after a closer look, this Thomas Wayne was a little different from the one Schiller had seen. This Thomas was very young and looked like he was probably less than 30 years old. Although he was a little tired, his appearance was not at all vicissitudes of life.

Schiller seemed to have thought of something. He looked down and saw that the skeleton of the little boy lying on the bed did have some shadows of Bruce Wayne, but because he was really skinny and too young, Schiller didn't recognize him for a while.

Even if Schiller walked up and looked carefully now, he could see a little bit of Bruce Wayne's shadow. After all, the state of this little boy was only a little different from a mummy, and it was still a bit too difficult to distinguish the appearance of a mummy.

"Doctor, doctor! Can you see me? I am Thomas Wayne, the patriarch of the Wayne family. They said you can save him. Please, doctor, please save little Bruce!!"

At this time, a woman rushed into the picture. Schiller saw that it was Martha, but the young Martha's makeup was all smudged by crying. She patted Thomas' arm and said, "You shouldn't listen to those people! You are sending little Bruce to hell!"

"We have no other way, Martha!" Thomas said angrily, "We invited the best doctors in the world, but they were all powerless. As long as there is a glimmer of hope, I will not give up."

"You said that doctors all over the world are powerless. Does this mysterious doctor have a way?! Give my child back to me, I would rather he leave in peace!"

When the couple quarreled, Schiller was recalling which universe's Batman had heart disease, and he really thought of one.

In the future Batman, Batman seemed to retire because of heart disease and old age, but his heart disease should not be so serious, otherwise how could he live to old age?

Wait, this could be a world without Batman. Batman was born with a serious congenital heart disease and died in childhood, so the subsequent series of Batman stories did not happen, and the protagonists of the stories were other people.

This is possible. After all, DC has many comics. Some comics that do not mention the existence of Batman may also have Bruce Wayne. It's just that he is not the protagonist, so he has never appeared, so he may be dead.

Schiller was thinking about all this, and Thomas's voice came from the TV: "Doctor, please, as long as you can save my son, I am willing to pay any price..."

Schiller's eyes lit up.

The Wayne family at this time should not be the richest in the world, but they must be quite rich, and Schiller found it interesting to think about what would happen if a world without Batman had Batman.

So Schiller walked up to check the status of little Bruce. In fact, there was nothing to see, because his time was frozen now, and judging from the current situation, he could not unfreeze it at will. From the outside, it can only be seen that the condition was extremely bad.

"Have you had surgery?" Schiller asked.

Thomas seemed startled by the voice that appeared out of nowhere, but he quickly said, "No treatment surgery was performed, but a biopsy was performed."

Schiller frowned deeply. With the conditions of the Wayne family, they would not miss the best time for surgery, and they had already performed an open biopsy, but they did not perform surgery. What kind of situation could stump the world's best surgeons?

Judging from the film alone, if Bruce's condition had not deteriorated to the current state, the operation would be difficult, but it would not be impossible. As the saying goes, there must be a brave man under a big reward. If the world's best surgeons unite, can they still come up with a plan?

Then there must be something wrong with the biopsy. Schiller thought that those doctors must have seen something in Bruce's heart that they were helpless, so they dared not to do it.

If none of the world's best surgeons dared to do it, Schiller did not think that calling the sick out would solve the problem. He did have surgical experience, but it was far from the level of Strange's magical hand of God.

Even if Strange really came, he would definitely turn around and leave when he saw the situation in this operating room. This can't be said to be unsuitable for surgery. If you dare to operate here, even Thanos will give you a thumbs up.

But as I said, Schiller wants money more than life. There is no money in this world that he dares not make.

He cleared his throat and said, "I can save him, but I need a sacrifice."

Thomas widened his eyes and said, "Aren't you a doctor? Aren't you going to operate on him?"

"Does it look like surgery can be performed here?"

Thomas seemed to be able to see the scene in the room through a screen. As the saying goes, long illness makes a doctor. Bruce has been ill for so long, and he has seen many hospitals, big and small. The dark room where Schiller is does not look like an operating room.

"I am a pope. Don't ask me which sect I belong to. Anyway, I can save him, but you have to offer a sacrifice."

"What sacrifice do you want?"

"All your property."

Thomas looked at the screen in shock, and then he said: "But, but even if I want, how can you take it?"

"Just nod your head, I have my own way."

Thomas hugged Martha, who was crying beside him, and said: "If you are God, my answer is 'yes'. We are willing to give everything to save our son."

"As long as you can save little Bruce, we are willing to give all our property. You can take whatever you can. We only want our child! As long as you can keep him alive!" Martha cried.

Schiller rolled up his sleeves and said, "That's easy."
