Chapter 569: Everyone Petrified

"I don’t quite understand, if he really is a fraud, knowing he can’t save the patient, why did he go in?"

"What’s hard to understand about that? The kid must have already taken the money, so he has to put on an act."

"Just wait, when he comes out, he’ll definitely have all sorts of excuses."

The crowd discussed.

The director felt restless, and said, "Let’s go to the observation room and see what he’s doing in there!"

However, when the director and a group of experts arrived at the observation room, they found the window blinds had been drawn.

Unless they burst into the operating room, they had no idea what Lin Fan was doing inside!

But at this point, no one dared to rush into the operating room for fear that Lin Fan might turn the tables and blame them for interfering with his surgery, resulting in the patient’s death.

The director said angrily, "That’s probably his intention; he’s deliberately staying inside, not coming out, so we’d go in voluntarily. Once we do, he’ll shift the blame onto us!"

"What a cunning kid!"

"This kid is quite shrewd; no wonder even Elder Sheng was deceived by him."

Zhu Ming said, "So what do we do now, just let this kid stay in there?"

The director sneered, "We’re not taking the blame for this, let the county chief decide!"

So, they found the county chief.

"County chief, I just discussed with the experts, and in our professional judgment, your mother is most likely already deceased," the director said.

"What?" The county chief’s face changed, "If my mother has already passed, why hasn’t Lin Fan come out?"

The director said, "That’s the issue; he might be stalling for time, trying to lure us in, then blame us for affecting his surgery, causing the patient’s death."

The county chief said angrily, "Is there really such a thing? Director, are you sure?"

The director said, "That’s our conclusion, our professional judgment. We can’t be 100% certain, but it’s very likely."

The county chief said, "Then what do you mean by telling me this?"

The director said, "Delaying any longer is simply wasting time. We hope this farce can end soon, but it depends on your decision."

This director was truly conniving, unwilling to take any blame, ultimately passing the buck to the county chief.

The county chief, already waiting anxiously, thought for a moment and calmed down. If according to the director, his mother was no longer alive, then any decision would be meaningless. But in case Lin Fan was still trying to save her in there, rushing in now would definitely affect Lin Fan, with unimaginable consequences. At that time, he would bear the responsibility, as it would be his decision.

Since that’s the case!

The county chief sat down and said, "Do nothing, just wait patiently!"

After speaking, the county chief closed his eyes, determined to wait for Lin Fan to come out.

Time continued to pass, and this surgery had already spread throughout the hospital, attracting nearly everyone’s attention.

Whether Lin Fan could bring the patient back became a matter of great curiosity for everyone.

"Difficult, it’s just impossible!"

"What a joke, so many experts in the hospital, and none of them as good as a small-town doctor?"

"This unlicensed barefoot doctor is obviously a fraud!"

"No need to say it, the director is right; he’s just waiting for someone to go in, to see which side can’t hold out first..."

At this moment, in a ward in the inpatient department.

Lin Dawei woke up from a nap, curiously asking, "Shanshan, why does the hospital seem so quiet today, where has everyone gone?"

Lin Shanshan was peeling an apple and said, "Seems like there’s a surgery, everyone went to watch."

Lin Dawei curiously asked, "There’s such a thing, what surgery?"

Lin Shanshan said, "I heard it’s the county chief’s mother having surgery, there was an accident, still trying to save her."

Lin Dawei said "Oh," not paying much attention, and then said, "By the way, where’s Little Fan, why isn’t he back yet? I want to be discharged and go home, it’s already afternoon, am I supposed to stay another night here?"

Lin Shanshan said, "The person doing that surgery is brother."

Lin Dawei sat up, "What? Little Fan is operating on the county chief’s mother?"

Lin Shanshan said, "That’s what I heard from others describing it. They said the doctor’s surgery failed, and brother went in to save the day."

Lin Dawei was stunned for a moment and then said, "Shanshan, do you think Little Fan can succeed?"

Lin Shanshan said, "I don’t know; I only know that day Third Uncle almost didn’t make it, and I watched brother save him with my own eyes."

Lin Dawei paused for a moment, sighing, "If Little Fan really brings the county chief’s mother back, our Lin Family must have great fortune!"

Lin Shanshan said, "What if he fails?"

Lin Dawei chuckled, "I know Little Fan well; he wouldn’t do something he isn’t confident about."

Outside the operating room, a group of people were watching, and as time went by, more and more people gathered.

Everyone was waiting for a result, whether Lin Fan succeeded or failed.

A group of doctors and nurses took a break from their busy schedules to come over and watch, including Dr. Li, who was responsible for Lin Dawei, and now they were discussing.

"This is really surprising; I heard the one going in for surgery isn’t even a doctor!"

"What do you mean, not a doctor, why’d they let him in for surgery?"

"There’s no choice; Dr. Zhu Ming’s surgery failed; it was the county chief’s decision to go with desperate measures."

"I heard the director was strongly opposed; after all, that person isn’t from medical school, and doesn’t even have a medical license, just a barefoot village doctor!"

"That’s crazy, we’re a county hospital, letting a barefoot doctor take over is embarrassing enough!"

"But there’s nothing that can be done! By the way, Dr. Li, you’re the most experienced here, what do you think the result will be?"

Dr. Li said, "A barefoot doctor better than Dr. Zhu? Think with the back of your head, you know the result."

"True, a barefoot doctor is still a barefoot doctor, most are just frauds."

The crowd obviously didn’t have high hopes for the result of this surgery, waiting to see a joke.

"Grandpa, I’m a bit worried about Divine Doctor Lin." Sheng Wanqing couldn’t help feeling a little anxious, hoping Divine Doctor Lin hadn’t encountered any difficulties.

Shengfu Sword said, "Don’t worry, give Divine Doctor Lin some time, don’t mind what they say."

Sheng Wanqing said, "Mm, I understand."

At this moment, Zhu Ming’s face looked gloomy, eager to stomp on Lin Fan, but Lin Fan hadn’t come out yet.

"Director, the county chief refuses to go in; are we really going to waste time?" Zhu Ming said.

The director sneered, "Calm down, at this point, we have no other choice but to keep waiting; I believe this kid will be more anxious than us. The longer it takes, the worse it is for him; eventually, he’ll be forced to show himself."

Right at this time, the crowd suddenly became agitated.

It turned out the door of the operating room creaked open from the inside, and Lin Fan came out with a hint of fatigue on his face!

"Ah, he’s out!"

Immediately, Lin Fan drew everyone’s attention.

"What, it’s him?"

Dr. Li in the crowd exclaimed; he recognized Lin Fan as Lin Dawei’s relative, who had argued with him earlier today about letting Lin Dawei be discharged.

Zhu Ming stared at Lin Fan, sneering, "You’ve finally come out, hasn’t the patient already died?"

Lin Fan glanced at Zhu Ming, smiling, "Died? You’re dead; she’s not."

With that, Lin Fan pushed open the operating room door, making way.

Following that, a nurse brought out a wheelchair.

A wheelchair with an old lady seated in it.

A living old lady.

The county chief’s mother.

"Huh?"

The crowd was dumbfounded.

For a moment, everyone was stunned by this scene!
