Chapter 136 Ayajichi Shoubu (first update, asking for subscriptions, asking for monthly tickets!)

after being persuaded by chen yu, jounouchi hiromi took the treatment plan that chen yu had given her and returned to her office. she placed it on her desk and then turned on her computer to look up information on neurosurgery, to better organize the material chen yu had given her and also to clarify her own writing thoughts.

"doctor jounouchi, what is this... are you looking up information? is it for professor chen's patient?" doctor higashiyama, who had just finished his rounds and returned to the office, glanced at jounouchi hiromi's computer screen and noticed the treatment plan written by chen yu on her desk, and he couldn't help but ask curiously.

"yes, mr. chen yu plans to adopt a new method to treat this patient's nerve damage.

he asked me to help him organize the paper based on the treatment plan he wrote." jounouchi hiromi didn't keep it from doctor higashiyama, since they were colleagues in the same office and, moreover, doctor higashiyama was a member of chen yu's research team and was already aware of the relationship between jounouchi hiromi and chen yu.

hearing jounouchi hiromi's explanation, doctor higashiyama couldn't help raising his eyebrows in surprise, "but doctor chen... isn't his specialty thoracic surgery? treatment of nerve damage falls within the realm of neurosurgery! of course, there was no problem when doctor daimon assisted with the surgery before, but now a thoracic surgeon doing neurosurgery work..."

in reality, there is no doctor like those depicted in movies or tv shows who know how to do everything and are experts in everything, as if they were the best in the world, with no disease they can't cure.

doctors all have their own areas of expertise and preferred disciplines. of course, there are general practitioners, like those in emergency medicine.

after all, any kind of patient could be sent to the emergency department - it could be a simple headache or fever, or it could be the world's first case of a rare disease; it might be a fall from walking carelessly, or it might be a complex condition requiring specialists from every conceivable department to consult...

if you were to ask where you could witness the widest variety of medical cases in the world, the emergency department would undoubtedly be the place.

even the doctors in the emergency department can't cure and aren't expected to treat every disease. most of their role is to provide immediate care to patients, and then direct them to other departments based on their condition.

they're a professional neurosurgeon and will definitely be more familiar with these specialized matters, which will surely help you with your thesis as well."

after hearing doctor higashiyama's reminder, jounouchi hiromi also remembered this, but after thanking doctor higashiyama for his reminder, she still said, "i'll ask mr. chen yu, but let's first finalize the treatment plan. it can't be done with mr. chen yu's handwritten notes; it's too disorganized."

while jounouchi hiromi was organizing the treatment plan given to her by chen yu, the neurosurgeon assigned by director shimura maru to assist chen yu had already arrived at his office.

"i'm ayajichi shoubu from neurosurgery. director shimura has assigned me to assist with treating a patient. hello, professor chen," said a female doctor who appeared even younger than chen yu as she stood before him. although her manners were impeccable, chen yu still sensed a hint of well-hidden disdain from her.

however, chen yu didn't inquire further and simply handed over the medical record he had prepared to ayajichi shoubu, explaining the situation: "this is the patient's medical record; you can have a look. the patient's primary condition involves indirect trauma causing flexion-type injuries to the third and fourth cervical vertebrae and the subsequent neurological damage.

the reason for your involvement is primarily to..."

"thank you, professor chen. i will look at the medical record back at my own office, so there's no need to go into details," interrupted ayajichi shoubu rudely, cutting off chen yu before he could finish, "after i've reviewed the medical records, i'll submit the treatment plan for your review. if there's nothing else, i'll take my leave now."

after saying this, ayajichi shoubu turned to leave, but chen yu stopped her.

"you don't need to trouble yourself with the treatment plan, doctor ayajichi. i've already given the treatment plan to doctor jounouchi. you can coordinate with her. just follow the treatment plan i've designed," chen yu said, making it clear that he would not let her take the lead in treating the patient, decisively rejecting any notion she had of creating a treatment plan.
