Doctor Choi Dae-ho Episode 224
Detective Hwang Jae-man said, scratching his head.
“Then I’ll first check the tracking status of that kid and then go up to the sickroom.”
“To the ward?”
“I need to tell you the news about Mr. Han Soo-gil.”
“I’ll go for that.”
Although Daeho tried to stop him, Detective Hwang Jae-man shook his head from side to side.
“I tell you to come up only if it’s good news. It’s better for me to just sneak in and tell you this kind of news.”
“Hmm.”
“You said the emergency isn’t over yet. If you meet the guardians face to face at a time like this, their voices will only get louder.”
“You know our situation very well.”
When Daeho spoke with a nod, Detective Hwang Jae-man smiled bitterly.
“Handling civil complaints is also a headache for us.”
“Oh, yes.”
“That too, I need to check if Ms. Lee Young-ji is stable and listen to her statement in more detail.”
“I see.”
The expression on the tiger’s face as he answered seemed like he had bitten a bitter persimmon.
Detective Hwang Jae-man had the same expression.
“We know it’s early. That’s why we feel like we’re doing something bad every time.”
“But there are things that must be done.”
“Well then, I guess I’ll take my leave now.”
Detective Hwang Jae-man tried to turn around, shrugging his shoulders.
At that moment, Daeho stopped.
“Detective Hwang, just a moment.”
“why?”
“I have a favor to ask. So, Eunbyeol….”
Whisper whisper.
The tiger approached and whispered something quietly.
Detective Hwang Jae-man, who had been listening silently, furrowed his brows with a slightly awkward expression.
“In this situation, you want me to do that?”
“please.”
“Hey. Right. Why are you asking me to do that?”
“As I explained earlier, I wonder when Han Soo-gil’s condition will change drastically……”
When Dae-ho tried to explain again, Detective Hwang Jae-man waved his hands with a blank expression.
“Ah, I got it. I got it.”
“Then please, please.”
Daeho greeted him politely.
Detective Hwang Jae-man grumbled and walked away, still dissatisfied.
“You’re a police officer, you know, right? No matter what, you know, right! This is a bit, ugh. Me, really.”
“Detective, fighting!”
“That’s enough!”
Whew.
Detective Hwang Jae-man answered sharply, but waved his notebook wildly in the air.
It was clear that he had accepted Daeho’s request.
Daeho smiled faintly after seeing the signal.
“What a unique personality.”
It was actually rare for police to care for and worry about victims this late in the day.
Daeho, now alone, decided to head to the hospital.
At that time, there was someone else calling for the tiger from over there.
“Mr. Richard, I’m busy.”
“Could it be that voice?”
Still.
Daeho’s eyebrows furrowed in an instant.
Then I turned my head and, as expected, reporter Kim Se-wook was standing there with his back against the wall.
The moment our eyes met, reporter Kim Se-wook smiled brightly.
“How have you been?”
“What on earth are you doing here?”
“Mr. Richard, what’s wrong? A friend has come, so you should pretend to know him.”
Slowly.
Reporter Kim Se-wook approached leisurely with a shaky gait.
The more this happened, the more Daeho’s expression became crumpled.
“Who is your friend?”
“We talked on the phone before. I’m the older brother, but I speak freely in the American way.”
“I’m sorry. I don’t remember. Please go back safely.”
Daeho answered in a businesslike manner and tried to turn away.
At that moment, reporter Kim Se-wook quickly approached and blocked the road.
Oh my!
“Why is our relationship so bleak? Shouldn’t we be good friends if we meet?”
“You want to be friends with me after exposing my face like that?”
“No, why are you hiding it? I don’t understand.”
“Don’t understand, just go back. This is an emergency room, not your playground.”
Daeho spoke again in a businesslike tone.
However, reporter Kim Se-wook did not back down easily.
“Even if there was no playground, would you come to the emergency room to play?”
“Then why did you come?”
“I also received a tip a while ago and have been waiting since then, talking about various things with Detective Hwang.”
Bustle.
Reporter Kim Se-wook raised his eyebrows up and down, giving the impression that he knew everything.
Tip?
The tiger was shocked.
For a moment, a bloody Han Soo-gil appeared in front of the emergency room to the people.
It seems that someone noticed the seriousness of the situation and reported it.
Daeho asked with a bitter face.
“Do the reporters know about this incident?”
“Isn’t it strange that we don’t know? To put it simply, in the late afternoon, a family in the house……”
“Stop. I really wish you wouldn’t mention it anymore.”
When Daeho suddenly stopped talking and became serious, reporter Kim Se-wook’s eyes sparkled.
“Is Mr. Han Soo-gil in poor condition?”
“There’s no reason to answer. More importantly, that look in your eyes is quite unpleasant.”
“My job is to tell the truth.”
“It’s important. But I don’t think digging into someone’s pain is seeking the truth.”
Daeho drew the line coldly once again.
However, reporter Kim Se-wook showed no sign of discomfort.
“That’s right. One sentence we scribble down could make someone shed tears of blood.”
“I’m glad you’re aware of it.”
Swish.
Daeho answered coldly and turned around.
At that time, reporter Kim Se-wook spoke in a calm voice.
“however.”
“……”
“Sometimes, a single line in an article can be enough to generate a flood of tips.”
“what?”
The tiger paused and turned around again.
The sly expression on reporter Kim Se-wook’s face that we met again was completely erased.
His expressionless face had a fierce and cold air.
“I’m working with Detective Hwang. As a journalist, I have sources from all walks of life.”
“so?”
“I’m not trying to pry into Mr. Richard, but can you do something about that wary look in your eyes?”
“Tell me why you called me.”
Daeho never let his guard down until the very end.
Reporter Kim Se-wook continued speaking without expecting any further results.
“I’ll hear the details from Detective Hwang. But let me ask you one thing personally.”
“What favor?”
“I’ll wait for the good news.”
The tiger paused at the simple and clear content.
“Does a reporter care about that kind of thing?”
“News is originally based on humanism.”
“Is that so?”
“At least for me, please don’t look at me with such a double standard.”
Reporter Kim Se-wook deliberately kept his expression blank and winked.
It seemed that Daeho’s refreshing expression had the opposite effect.
“I haven’t eaten anything, but my stomach feels rumbling.”
“Can you buy me some cup ramen?”
“Okay. I just want to rest for a bit now.”
“Then I won’t follow you. Get some rest, work really hard, and bring me some good news.”
Gently, gently.
Reporter Kim Se-wook waved his hand lightly to indicate that it was time to part ways.
It was a truly selfless expression and action.
After seeing that, Daeho changed his evaluation of reporter Kim Se-wook.
‘There are reporters like this too.’
As that thought came to mind, Daeho suddenly reached out his hand, remembering something he had forgotten earlier.
chuck.
“Hand it over.”
“What all of a sudden?”
“He said to contact me.”
“Oh, your business card. Didn’t I give you one before? Here.”
Reporter Kim Se-wook quickly searched through his pockets and handed over a business card.
Daeho accepted it and said with a sullen face.
“Don’t wait, you never know when I’ll contact you.”
“You said you’d contact me. So that means you’ll give me good news, right?”
“Why do reporters nitpick like this?”
The tiger shook its head and walked away.
Even in the midst of all this, reporter Kim Se-wook continued to wave his hand with a bright face.
“Richard, my friend. Don’t worry about me and just do your work.”
“I didn’t really care.”
“Okay, let’s stay friends from now on.”
“Why are you like that?”
Daeho blurted out in disbelief and walked away.
However, it is true that the negative perception of reporter Kim Se-wook has greatly diminished.
‘How human.’
I especially liked that part.

Soon, Daeho opened the door to the manager’s office and entered.
Squeak.
The inside of the office was completely empty.
But there really was a futon spread out on the sofa.
“Huh?”
This was really unexpected.
I wonder if Yoo Gwang-gu laid it down.
“Him? Hey.”
Daeho shook his head, saying it was just a groundless speculation.
So I went to the sofa and sat down.
dump.
There was a small basket on the sofa table.
Chocolate, protein snacks, drinks, etc.
It contained snacks to replenish the calories you exhausted yourself with.
A note was also seen inside the basket.
“What is this?”
chuck.
The tiger picked it up and lightly skimmed through the short message written on it.
– You’ve worked hard.
It was such a simple and clear sentence.
However, Daeho could tell who had written it by the handwriting.
“The manager?”
This surprise gift was so unexpected.
The corners of Daho’s mouth slightly curled upward as he looked at the snack package.
“Huh. So you have that kind of side to you, too.”
It seemed like a gift prepared after seeing with his own eyes that the emergency patient was in a serious condition.
Daeho put the snacks into his mouth one by one.
Rustle.
“Hmm. Hmm.”
Surprisingly, Taeho’s expression while eating a snack was not very bright.
I really appreciate you preparing these snacks for me.
But Daeho experienced a fatal flaw firsthand during emergency surgery today.
That part was on my mind.
That was the limitation of the ER medical staff.
‘Skill, understanding, depth… honestly, it’s lacking.’
His passion was greater than that of any medical staff.
Even Daeho acknowledged that.
The problem is that the level of expertise is low compared to the level of motivation.
It was also the fate of the emergency medicine department.
He had shallow but broad medical knowledge, as he had to study all medical fields.
Daeho couldn’t think of this problem simply.
I felt it during Song Joo-young’s emergency surgery last time.
And the same thing happened again in Han Soo-gil’s emergency surgery.
That was the part where if I hadn’t been there, there would have been huge problems.
‘Table death is……’
No accidents are allowed in the emergency operating room.
I know I can’t save everyone.
However, I did not even want to think about sending away a recoverable emergency patient due to the medical staff’s circumstances.
Fortunately, there have been zero deaths so far.
Even Daeho could not have predicted how long that record would last.
‘We need someone with more expertise.’
The person had to be skilled enough to perform everything from emergency surgery to regular surgery.
If you are a thoracic surgeon or have an outstanding talent in surgery, that would be the icing on the cake.
I didn’t ask for much.
Two or three people would have been enough.
If there are many, even just one would be good.
‘If it’s that guy.’
Daeho thought of someone.
Then it was soon scattered.
Maybe it was just Daeho’s greed.
What is certain is that in order to achieve the goal of becoming the number one ER in the country, we need to hire skilled people.
I know everyone in the emergency room is working hard right now.
Even at this moment, in an unseen place, he is spurring himself on and whipping himself to study.
Obviously they will be professional.
But time doesn’t wait.
It’s ridiculous that Daeho works in the emergency room 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.
The gaps that occasionally appeared were dangerous.
There is no way to predict when and what kind of emergency patient will arrive.
“What should I do?”
Swish.
The expression on Taeho’s face as he lay on the sofa was complicated.
