Doctor Choi Dae-ho Episode 242
Lee Jeong-seok’s brow furrowed even further.
“Richard, you’ve changed so much. You’ve changed so much that no one would believe you if I told them.”
“I like myself like this.”
“Don’t be so lax. At least not in front of me.”
Lee Jeong-seok shot back coldly like a knife.
Daeho asked, tilting his head instead.
“Wouldn’t it be good for you if I loosen up?”
“My pride won’t allow me to trample on that deflated shell.”
“Jeongseok-ah. Is being a doctor a job where all you have to do is cure people well?”
Daeho asked quietly in a calm tone.
Lee Jeong-seok answered without moving an inch and without breaking a muscle.
“What else do you need?”
“You don’t know that. You really don’t know?”
“I don’t want to know.”
The relaxed atmosphere was about to become tense again.
That was when.
dripping.
There was a knock on the door.
It looked like someone was trying to come in.
At that moment, Lee Jeong-seok narrowed his eyes and growled softly.
“I warn you, do not stand before me with such a loose attitude.”
Whoosh!
Lee Jeong-seok, who had warned, turned away coldly.
It felt like something that had been so tense until just now had suddenly snapped.
Lee Jeong-seok’s change in attitude was that sudden.
However, Daeho had some idea of the reason.
‘You probably don’t want to show it to other kids.’
I didn’t want it to be known that I was arguing with Daeho about this topic.
The hospital kept private matters completely hidden.
Even Daeho agreed with that.
It was undesirable to know more about each other’s relationship than necessary.
In-nae Dae-ho said, holding up the kimbap indifferently.
“But since you came all the way here, you should eat some kimbap before you go.”
“You eat a lot too.”
“If that’s the case, then by all means. Come by later when you’re out.”
“……”
Lee Jeong-seok headed towards the medical office without saying a word.
Squeak.
Just then the door opened and Park Jin-gyu and Kang Jin-su came in.
“Hey, this is the kimbap that patient Lee Young-rae packed for me. I couldn’t eat it then, but I wonder what it tastes like.”
“Is that the person who received emergency surgery for cerebral infarction?”
“Mr. Kang had just left work at that time. I heard it was quite a spectacle that day.”
“I was also very surprised when I heard it the next day. I was so upset that I didn’t even notice it at that moment.”
Lee Jeong-seok stood tall in front of the two people who had come in like that.
chuck.
“Please step aside.”
“Oh, I guess so.”
Park Jin-gyu responded bewildered by the cold demeanor and distanced himself from Kang Jin-soo.
In the meantime, Lee Jeong-seok passed by indifferently.
“……”
It was after Lee Jeong-seok left.
Park Jin-gyu found Dae-ho and asked with a puzzled look.
“Teacher, why are you doing that again? Is the kimbap not tasty?”
“What are you talking about? Kimbap is always the best. Hmm. This taste!”
“Why is he so cheerful again? What happened between you two?”
Park Jin-gyu asked with a very nervous expression.
Daeho took a bite of kimbap with an indifferent expression.
“Ah, this kimbap tastes so good.”
“What the heck?”
Only Park Jin-gyu and Kang Jin-su were bewildered by the contrasting appearances of Dae-ho and Lee Jeong-seok.
* * *
Time passed quickly and it was almost time to leave work.
The medical staff preparing for the handover before leaving work looked energetic.
“Kimbap is really filling.”
“I think I’ll have a light dinner later.”
It seemed like the kimbap I had as a snack was doing its job well.
The hands checking the patients visiting Daeho Island again became more thorough.
“This patient does this…”
Swish swish.
It was lively to see the charts and EMRs being organized.
It was after the handover was completed.
The residents who were leaving work gathered together and headed to the hospital.
“Ugh. I think today ended well.”
“Let’s go out and eat, then come back and study.”
“I’m still full, so I don’t feel like eating.”
Groan, groan.
The residents wrapped up their day by chatting about this and that.
Soon, the tiger and the residents entered the hospital.
Squeak.
Inside, Lee Jeong-seok was busy preparing to leave work.
“……”
I was changing my clothes quietly.
There was no resident who approached Lee Jeong-seok like that.
“Ahem.”
“Ahem.”
Everyone cleared their throats and dispersed.
Rather than avoiding Lee Jeong-seok, it was difficult to get close to him.
A bitter smile formed on Daeho’s face at the current.
‘It must be awkward.’
No matter how much you adjust the water level, you can’t help but feel distant because Lee Jeong-seok is a sharp-tongued man.
That was the other residents’ position.
Daeho didn’t know that.
chuck.
Daeho approached, opened the cabinet, and asked.
“When did you come?”
“just now.”
“Leaving work right away?”
“maybe.”
The conversation was dull.
It’s not like we were uncomfortable with each other because of what happened earlier.
The original conversation was like this.
Lee Jeong-seok, who was about to finish preparing to leave work, closed the cabinet and asked.
“A drink?”
“Pass today.”
“What else do you want to say?”
“doesn’t exist.”
As soon as Daeho answered, Lee Jeong-seok headed straight out of the hospital.
“Go.”
“great job.”
“……”
Swish swish.
Lee Jeong-seok left the hospital, waving his hand over his head in a desolate manner.
That was when the doors to the hospital closed.
widely.
The residents who had been watching around quickly approached Daeho.
Park Jin-gyu, who arrived first, immediately asked.
“Are you close or not?”
“Not close.”
“Considering that, our communication with each other is quite tight.”
As Park Jin-gyu spoke, Seo Ju-ran chimed in.
“I don’t think this teacher was very friendly.”
“What are you talking about?”
“I asked around, and they said that what you see is what you get.”
“Then we’re not close.”
Park Jin-gyu understood on his own and nodded.
In addition, the residents surrounding Daeho were talking in a commotion.
Daeho was not comfortable with such gossip.
Thud!
“The tiger closed the cabinet door loudly and spoke softly.
“How come you guys are always the same?”
“What now? Why are you telling us this?”
“You did that to me too.”
When Daeho spoke briefly and concisely, Park Jin-gyu paused.
“What is that?”
“Don’t judge this teacher by only looking at one side without knowing how he lived or what kind of time he spent.”
“You know what I mean?”
“Better than you guys.”
Daeho blurted out a sharp answer.
Everyone changed the subject, feeling that what Daeho said was right.
“It’s only been a few days since I started working.”
“I think it’s not too late to wait and see and then decide.”
He also tried to keep an eye on Daeho’s expression while speaking slyly.
Daeho shook off the heavy atmosphere for no reason.
“It’s about time we all leave work.”
Swish.
As I took off my gown and spoke, everyone’s gloomy faces brightened.
“Yay, off work.”
“Yes. There’s nothing important right now but getting off work.”
“Even if I come back and study again, I like this time to just go out and get some fresh air.”
Everyone spoke with excited faces as if they had never talked badly about Lee Jeong-seok before.
The change was really simple.
No, I did that on purpose to make it look simple.
It seemed like he didn’t want to clutter his head with useless thoughts.
So everyone was trying to hurry up and get off work.
It was during that time.
Beep beep.
When the phone rang, everyone paused.
“……”
Sasak.
Without even asking who it was, I quickly took out my phone and checked it.
It was the same with Daeho.
The cell phone’s LCD, which should have been dark, was glowing brightly.
It was the nurse’s office.
“me : yes.”
Daeho, who had said simply, answered the phone right away.
“This is Richard.”
“Where are you?”
“I am a doctor.”
“Come quickly. Teacher Wang Jae-seong is looking for you urgently.”
Nurse Lee Soo-yeon’s serious voice rang out urgently.
At that moment, Daeho felt uneasy.
‘There was no emergency until just now.’
So, it seems that an emergency patient came in during the brief period between the handover and entering the hospital.
“I’ll go right away.”
The tiger who answered opened the cabinet hurriedly and snatched the hanging gown.
Okay, Pavabak!
He ran out of the hospital with that momentum.
It was right after Daeho left the hospital in a hurry.
Park Jin-gyu spoke to the residents with hardened eyes.
“Everyone, put your clothes back on. The atmosphere is tense. Let’s wait a moment.”
“all right.”
Ssak!
The residents quickly put back on the gowns they had taken off or were about to take off.
Now, in emergency patients, the body reacts before the mind.
After putting on my gown again, I sat down on a chair located throughout the hospital.
Yeah. Okay.
“Phew.”
“Hmm.”
I relaxed my body into the most comfortable position possible.
It seemed like he was trying to relieve some of his work fatigue in preparation for the moment when the call would come.
It was a wiser decision than to rush in disorganized.
* * *
Same time.
Daeho closed the distance to the nurse’s office in one step.
As soon as I saw Nurse Lee Su-yeon in the nurse’s office, I shouted.
“This nurse.”
“Zone 2. Let’s go together!”
Grrrrr.
Nurse Lee Soo-yeon rushed out, pushing a prepared medical cart.
So, Daeho joined up with Nurse Lee Suyeon and headed to Area 2.
As we arrived at Zone 2, the first thing we saw was Wang Jae-seong’s sturdy back.
Nurse Hwang Se-mi was assisting next to her.
But it didn’t look like they were giving first aid.
The tiger, who had been wondering, quickly closed the distance and asked.
“Mr. Wang, what’s going on?”
“Richard, welcome back. Take a look at this patient.”
Wang Jae-seong immediately moved away and opened up space.
Only then did the patient’s face, which had been hidden, become visible.
The patient was a young, healthy-looking man in his mid-30s.
But his face was distorted for no reason, and he was covering his stomach and complaining of abdominal pain.
“Kaaaaaa, ugh.”
“Patient, patient?”
Daeho called an emergency patient and checked his consciousness.
“Ugh, ah, ugh.”
However, the patient could not answer, perhaps because his ears were closed due to pain.
‘This is what a stomachache is?’
Daeho’s eyes narrowed as he realized the seriousness of the situation.
Then, the voice of Wang Jae-seong was heard in the ears of the tiger.
“The patient’s name is Gong Ji-hoon, and he arrived by ambulance 5 minutes ago.”
“And?”
“Tender point pain and reflex pain are extremely severe throughout the abdomen.”
“The whole abdomen?”
Daeho paused and placed his hand on the patient’s stomach.
LOL.
Something was strange.
