Take a bullet

A surging power of merit quietly overflowed from the body of the child's mother and flowed into Xiao Yi's Mind Sea. The heart of the world's mother was ordinary. Xiao Yi could relieve her child's pain, so naturally, he got the real gratitude of the child's mother.

Xiao Yi hurriedly reached out to help her up and said, "You're welcome. It's just that you should be careful when you look after the child in the future. Don't let him get in touch with those sharp and small objects!"

"Yes, yes! I will pay more attention!" The child's mother still had a lingering fear and nodded vigorously. After that, she thanked him and left with the child in her arms.

After Dr. Smith was shocked, he thought of a serious problem. He scratched his head and asked Qin Guangming, "Master Qin, since you are Mr. Xiao's teacher, how come you don't understand what Mr. Xiao knows?"

Qin Guangming was such a shameless person. When he heard this, he couldn't help but blush. He stared at him and said, "Hey, Dr. Smith, why do you have so many questions? Do you still want to learn Recipes Song from me?"

"Yes, of course, I do! I'm sorry, Master Qin. I won't ask any more questions in the future. Don't be angry. Come on, teach me Recipes Song again!" After Dr. Smith saw Xiao Yi's superb Chinese medicine skills, his desire for Chinese medicine reached an unsurpassable level. Now he didn't dare to offend Qin Guangming, so he hurriedly waved his hand and cried.

"Well, that's more like it!" Qin Guangming put his hands behind his back and nodded triumphantly, looking like a villain intoxicated with success.

Xiao Yi burst out laughing, but he allowed Smith to follow Qin Guangming to learn Recipes Song and acupuncture points map. This was the most basic thing of traditional Chinese medicine. If Smith couldn't pass this barrier, then it wouldn't count as learning traditional Chinese medicine.

Xiao Yi slowly walked to his position. He had just taken a sip of tea when he heard the sound of hurried footsteps again. This made Xiao Yi frown slightly.

A moment later, a young man in black ran into the Jishi Hall.

Xiao Yi took a closer look and found that he knew the person. It was the disciple of the Ghost Medical Sect named Wu Peng.

"Mr. Xiao," Wu Peng went straight to Xiao Yi as soon as he entered the door. After glancing at Qin Guangming and Smith, Wu Peng said in a low voice, "Mr. Xiao, something's wrong with the Xiao family!"

"What happened?" Xiao Yi frowned slightly and asked.

"According to the orders of the family Head, we protect Miss Xiao and Mr. Xiao 24/7. However, last night, there were killers attacking Miss Xiao Qing," Wu Peng said in a low voice.

"Auntie? How's she doing?" Xiao Yi's heart suddenly tightened and he stood up.

"Miss Xiao Qing got some injuries on her skin. First of all, the killer finally discovered that we were from the Ghost Medical Sect. He committed a crime in panic and lost his accuracy. Second, there was also the Swiss doctor beside her. At the critical moment, he took a bullet for Miss Xiao Qing." Wu Peng reported truthfully to Xiao Yi.

"Bentley?" Xiao Yi heard that Xiao Qing was fine, so he finally felt a little relieved. But when he heard that it was Bentley who blocked the bullet for his auntie, he couldn't help but ask with concern, "Bentley, how is he? Where is he now?"

"Dr. Bentley has been sent to the eastern hospital area of the Affiliated Hospital of Chinese Medicine for emergency treatment, but the bullet shot into the head. The situation is not very good!" Wu Peng frowned and said.

Xiao Yi nodded, looked at Wu Peng and said, "The Ghost Medical Sect has put in a lot of effort! I will keep this matter in mind."

"Mr. Xiao, you're too serious. The Family Head has already ordered that the matter of Mr. Xiao is related to the matter of the Ghost Medical Sect. Speaking of which, it's because we didn't protect them well that someone in the Xiao family got injured!" Wu Peng said with sincerity and fear.

"Let's go. You take me to the hospital. I'll go and see what's going on!" Xiao Yi said as he walked out.

"Yes!" Wu Peng did not dare to neglect him and immediately followed Xiao Yi out of the door.

"Ah? Dr. Bentley is injured? Hey, wait for me. Anyway, I'm also a neurosurgeon!" As soon as Doctor Smith heard the news, he quickly stood up and chased after him.

Xiao Yi let him follow. They got into Wu Peng's car and sped toward the eastern area of the affiliated hospital.

This hospital was Li Qingshan's branch of the Medical Affiliated Hospital. It was located in the eastern coastal area of Hai City. The history of building a hospital was relatively short. However, the medical groups faced were mostly the rich people in the nearby high-level residential areas. Therefore, after Bentley was injured, he was sent to this area nearby.

Not long after, the car drove into the affiliated hospital. Xiao Yi and the other two immediately got out of the car, led by Wu Peng, and walked all the way to the inpatient department of the affiliated hospital.

In a senior intensive care unit, Xiao Yi saw a Bentley with a swollen face.

There were bandages wrapped around his head and tubes all over his body. Bentley had already fallen into a serious coma. Only the ECG monitor on the bedside was able to let people know that his signs of life had not completely disappeared.

Xiao Qing was wearing a bandage on her arm. She looked at Bentley on the hospital bed with a haggard and anxious face.

Several doctors in white coats looked helpless and spread their hands to Xiao Qing.

Xiao Qing's expression immediately became dispirited, and her eyes suddenly turned red, and deep pain and regret appeared on her face.

"Auntie!" Xiao Yi hurriedly walked up to Xiao Qing.

"Xiao Yi." Xiao Yi was shocked to see Xiao Yi. She used her uninjured left hand to hold Xiao Yi's arm and shook her head painfully. He said, "Xiao Yi, I didn't expect that a killer would want to kill me. If it weren't for the fact that Bentley sacrificed his life to save me..."

Xiao Qing frowned and could not continue in pain.

"Are you okay?" Xiao Yi pointed at the thick bandage and asked with concern.

"I'm just a skin wound. It doesn't matter, it's just a Bentley. In order to protect me, the bullet shot him in the head, and the doctors here are helpless!" Xiao Qing said, and she couldn't help but burst into tears.

When Smith, the neurosurgery expert behind Xiao Yi, heard this, he strode over. Looking at Bentley, whose head was wrapped in layers of gauze and swollen, he couldn't help shouting, "Bentley, my God, the world's youngest winner of the Nobel Prize in medicine, you must hold on. Otherwise, it will be a heavy loss in the world's medical community!"

Dr. Smith turned his head and looked at the attending doctor. He said loudly, "Show me Bentley's brain CT and MRI results!"

A group of attending physicians couldn't help but be stunned when they saw Smith's posture.

However, a moment later, Zhang Tianqi, the director of the neurosurgery department, was suddenly shocked. He pushed up his glasses and exclaimed in surprise, "Dr. Smith? Oh my god, you are Dr. Smith!"

"Dr. Smith? Which Dr. Smith?" The other doctors behind him asked in confusion.

"The neurosurgeon of the Royal Hospital of Country E, known as the 'first knife in the Country E Dr. Smith" Zhang Tianqi said excitedly.

"Ah? Did Dr. William actually come to our hospital?" The other experts in the room whispered, as excited as if they had met their idol.

It seemed that Dr. Smith was indeed well-known in this industry.

Since the idol Dr. Smith had come without an invitation, how could the experts dare to neglect him? They quickly handed over all the information about Bentley to Smith. They were also very happy and whispered in their hearts.

"Now Dr. Bentley may be saved. He's really lucky. I didn't expect that Dr. Smith happened to be in Hai City."

"That's right. If even Doctor Smith can't do anything about it, then no one else can do it!"

Zhang Tianqi also hurriedly introduced to Smith, "Dr. Smith, the bullet has been shot into the left side of the patient's neck, just right in the life centre of the brain tube. This part of the brain structure is complicated, and the acute bleeding in the process of operation is even more daunting. Blood loss of more than 9ML is defined as massive haemorrhage, with a greater than 95% chance of death, let alone the risk of being disabled."

Dr. Smith listened to Zhang Tianqi's introduction and looked at the CT image of Bentley. His brows were wrinkled tighter and tighter, and his expression showed a glimmer of hope from the beginning to the fever after that and then to the last despair.

Through years of unique treatment experience, Dr. Smith realized that the situation of the Bentley was very not optimistic, just like what Zhang Tianqi had introduced. That bloody life centre was simply called a "magic restricted area"! It was a restricted area. Once it was touched, it would be life-threatening. Even Dr. Smith, known as the "The First Knife in the Country E", had no way to take action.

Dr. Smith's heart was filled with sadness. "God, why did that bullet happen to have to be embedded in that restricted area? Did it just want me to regret it for the rest of my life?"

He painfully scratched his hair.

After witnessing Dr. Smith's change in expression, all the experts present, including Zhang Tianqi and other experts, gradually felt their hearts sink.

"Dr. Smith, what do you think? Is there any hope?" Zhang Tianqi asked cautiously.

Dr. Smith reluctantly let out a long sigh and returned the CT. He said sadly, "The bullet is located in the restricted area, so the risk of the craniotomy is too high. If we are forced to open the skull, it is like killing a chicken to take an egg!"

"Alas!" There was a consistent low sigh in the ward. The doctor's mind was the same. If there was a glimmer of hope to cure the patient, he did not want to miss it. This was a responsibility but also self-worth. Facing such a difficult case, everyone felt frustration in their hearts.

Xiao Qing's stopped tears could not help but fall down again. Looking at Bentley on the bed, Xiao Qing's heart was full of mixed feelings. If it were not for her, he would not have travelled all the way here. If it weren't for protecting her, he would not have been in such a dying state. Although she had blocked her heart ever since she divorced and never accepted Bentley, at this moment, in front of life and death parting, Xiao Qing deeply felt the true feelings of her heart.
