Doctor: It's reasonable to perform surgery on yourself.
Chapter 176: Using human lives as a bet
In the ICU, there is only visiting time around 4 pm.
Family members are not allowed to come in at other times.
Moreover, many times the patient may be in emergency treatment, in which case, the family members' visiting opportunity will be cancelled.
Therefore, family members generally cherish the rare visit.
People like this who take notes everywhere with a notebook seem very suspicious.
Xu Qiu found the nurse in the ICU and asked about the person's situation.
"He has come many times. He seems to be the family member of bed seven." The nurse said.
Xu Qiu frowned.
After he dealt with Ma Pingchuan's affairs, he went to bed seven again.
Bed seven is a retired old cadre who has been in the ICU for more than a month. His condition is almost like a vegetative state.
The nurse's tone added a hint of contempt, saying: "His sons are really not human. This patient has state reimbursement, and the cost of more than 10,000 yuan a day only needs to pay more than ten yuan. But his retirement salary adds up to more than 30,000 yuan, so his children are unwilling to let him die."
Every month, more than 300 yuan is spent to keep the old man alive.
Children can receive a pension of more than 30,000 yuan for free.
Xu Qiu was speechless.
This is the ugly side of the ICU.
He looked up to find the man with the notebook. A few minutes later, he had been writing and reading outside several wards for a long time.
When he saw the instrument in a ward start to emit a harsh alarm and the various blood vessels connected to the whole body began to flow with bright red blood, he suddenly raised his head, and a flash of excitement and madness flashed in his eyes.
Xu Qiu frowned.
This kind of performance cannot be a family member!
"Quick!!"
"Bed 13 is in trouble, prepare for rescue!"
At the same time, the moment the alarm was sounded, the well-trained staff on the ICU side rushed to the bedside to start rescue.
It is still a bit difficult to die in the ICU.
On the other side, after seeing the patient being rescued, the man bit off the pen cap again, recorded something, and then prepared to leave in frustration.
Seeing this scene, Xu Qiu suddenly had a terrible idea.
He called the security department directly.
"Here in the ICU, there's a guy with a notebook going out, please keep him for a while."
...
More than ten minutes later, a fierce quarrel suddenly broke out outside the ICU.
Xu Qiu rushed over and saw several security guards holding the man who was struggling desperately with a hideous face.
There was also a scattered notebook not far away.
"Sure enough, there is a problem."
Xu Qiu sighed softly.
He had told the security guards to try not to have violent conflicts.
If the other party was really a family member, it would be enough to cooperate with the security guards in the conversation. Why would there be such a violent reaction?
Xu Qiu walked over and picked up the notebook.
At this moment, the man who had given up resistance suddenly shouted violently again, his voice like a beast roaring: "Don't touch my notebook! That's my privacy!! Bullying, the hospital bullies the people, come and help!"
At this time, Xu Qiu opened the notebook.
When he saw the content recorded on it, he was shocked and felt like falling into an ice cave.
"August 7.
Linhai First Hospital ICU, 1 bed.
Live 3 days. Odds 8.50: 1.36
Live 10 days. Odds 3.60: 2.20
Number of rescues:
3 times. Odds:...
4 times. Odds:...
5 times. Odds:...
Death time bet:
August 8. Odds:...
August 9...
Result: 1 bed live 7 days, rescued 4 times, death time: August 14."
...
On the wrinkled notebook, a bunch of times and numbers were recorded in a mess.
No mobile phone is allowed in the ICU, so he chose this method.
The more Xu Qiu flipped through it, the colder his expression became.
This is a score record sheet for gamblers.
But,
The score is the number of rescues, survival time, and death date of the patient.
What is bet is the patient's life!
Xu Qiu stood still.
Even though he had lived two lives and witnessed too much evil in human nature, he still felt unreal when encountering such things.
Is this... really the human world?
Why would someone bet his life on this?
"Let him go, he's a psychopath, what kind of mess is he writing?"
Suddenly, Xu Qiu threw the notebook back in front of the man and said to the security guard.
The next moment, the man felt his body loosen up, freed from the restraints, and quickly grabbed the notebook and ran away.
Xu Qiu didn't let the security guard chase him.
A notebook... What's the point of calling the police?
With the man's cruelty, even if he was caught, as long as he refused to admit it, the police couldn't do anything to him.
After all, writing these things in the notebook is not a crime.
Xu Qiu looked at the direction where the man was going away.
He saw a large number of patient records on the last few pages of the notebook.
And these patients were not from Linhai First Hospital.
They were not from the top three hospitals with names.
Xu Qiu wanted to know where these patients were.
…
“Are there any unusual patients discharged recently?”
In the office, Director Jiang was a little confused by Xu Qiu’s question.
Why did he suddenly ask this?
After thinking for a long time, Director Jiang said: "Yes, there is. Three days ago, bed 13 passed away directly. We emphasized to the family that if the patient does not stay in the ICU, he may not survive this week. In fact, this is not very abnormal. In the ICU, many family members give up treatment because of money."
Xu Qiu nodded and asked: "Can you tell me more about the patient's situation?"
Director Jiang said: "It is a patient with chronic renal failure. He has reached the uremia stage. The family members originally planned to stay in the ICU and wait for a kidney source. As a result, one day they suddenly said they wanted to be discharged from the hospital."
"Is there anything abnormal about the family members?"
"Abnormal? It seems that there is a little bit. The family members seem to be very concerned about how long the patient can last. I have made it clear to the family members that they don't have to worry about dying on the road. At least they can live for three or four days."
Xu Qiu nodded silently.
The family members may not be afraid of dying on the road.
But, they want to bet on their loved ones.
...
Xu Qiu does not intend to take on such dangerous things completely on himself.
He is just a doctor.
After consideration, Wang Ping from the emergency department is the most trustworthy, after all, he is a tool man.
When Wang Ping heard about this, his expression was full of shock.
"Take human life as a bet? How dare you!"
It took a while for Wang Ping to recover from this kind of thing that destroyed his worldview.
"But you shouldn't let him go. If you contact the police, you can pry open his mouth anyway." Wang Ping said with some regret.
He was worried that the man would not dare to come again.

Sorry! I have a new crown of fried chicken. Now I have a fever and my whole body hurts. I forced myself to write a chapter today, but I really can't write anymore! The remaining two chapters will be updated after the fried chicken disease is cured.
I may not be able to guarantee updates in the next few days. I'm sorry!
