For a twelve-year-old boy with a small frame, transplanting an adult heart was considerably more challenging than an average heart transplant surgery. However, Lin Jie managed to complete this surgery in just three and a half hours.

This shortened the typical heart transplant surgery time by nearly an hour.

After the transplanted heart successfully resumed beating, Lin Jie stepped aside to let his surgical assistant, a deputy chief physician from the Affiliated Hospital's Cardiothoracic Surgery Department, handle the suturing and closing procedures.

Lin Jie then left the operating room with Gao Yanhong and Zeng Yang, who observed the surgery.

After briefing the patient's family on the surgery, Gao Yanhong, who was following Lin Jie closely, could not help but remark back in the preparation room, "Professor, throughout the entire surgery, I didn't see you hesitate or pause for a moment. It could be described as effortlessly fluid, completing this operation."

"I have also observed Dr. Xia Kaige's heart transplant surgery,"

"His sense of rhythm and fluency compared to yours doesn't even come close. I feel Dr. Xia is not on the same level as you at all."

"Professor, how did you achieve this?"

"No secret, just hands..."

Lin Jie initially wanted to say "just practice makes perfect, skill comes from proficiency," given that he had received over a hundred memories of heart transplant surgeries in his mind.

Halfway through his sentence, he realized that in reality, this was his first human heart transplant surgery.

Lin Jie extended his right index finger, pointed to his head, and said, "It's all about thorough preparation."

"Our brain is amazing. Often, if you repeatedly bombard it with something fictitious, it starts to believe it's real and reflects that in your neural memory."

Organizing his thoughts, he said, "While preparing for surgery, I would perform vivid and realistic simulations of the surgical process in my mind, repeatedly including potential incidents."

"Under these circumstances, when I perform the actual surgery, it's as if I've done it dozens of times before, making the process incredibly smooth."

"Simulating the surgical process in your mind?"

Gao Yanhong's eyes widened in amazement, "Professor, your brain's imaging processing center must be developed multiple times, even dozens of times more than ours."

"How did you do it?"

Lin Jie joked, "When you're physically limited and can't play or go anywhere, the only thing that's free is your mind."

"In your mind, you can go anywhere and do anything!"

At this, Lin Jie recalled his past and sighed, "In essence, it's just daydreaming every day, toying with self-deception."

While feeling sympathy, Gao Yanhong said, "Professor, this must be a benefit derived from a disadvantage."

Her eyes sparkling, she said, "I finally understand why you have such exquisite surgical skills despite lacking many opportunities for medical practice."

"Oh, what do you think the reason is? Share with us!" Lin Jie was very curious.

Gao Yanhong confidently said, "Professor, you have immensely rich medical knowledge, and your highly developed brain imaging processing center allows you to simulate and practice various surgeries in almost realistic scenarios."

"This way, over time, the skills honed in simulation materialize into reality."

Zeng Yang also agreed, "Professor, I think so too."

This assumption...

Lin Jie chuckled and thought to himself, it's pretty reliable indeed.

He recalled something else and said, "In early August, classes will be suspended for about ten days. You two should inform the others. Those who want to go home or have other matters to handle can do so during this period."

Lin Jie also reminded, "However, make sure the test monkeys are well taken care of. You need to arrange shifts for this."

Gao Yanhong and Zeng Yang both appeared overjoyed and confirmed in unison, "Professor, is this true?"

Lin Jie replied, "Of course it's true, although the exact dates are not set, it will definitely be in early August..."

The three changed clothes, took a short break, and exited the surgery preparation room.

Lin Jie saw Cheng Xingguang, Kong Mingqing, and a stylish woman with ear-length short hair approaching with a group of people.

Among those behind, some carried cameras, some held reflectors, and others held microphones.

"Lin Jie!"

Wearing a brand-new summer police uniform, Kong Mingqing walked briskly to Lin Jie and said, "This is the 'Society and Legal System' program team from Binhai TV Station, and this is the show's host, Mao Youlan!"

Introducing the short-haired woman, Kong Mingqing continued, "This program has always had a close collaborative relationship with our police department."

"The leadership believes that the motorcycle incident involving You Huangjie and the incident of a sister putting her brother in the freezer need to be made known through the media to alert more people."

Lin Jie nodded, "This is indeed a very good idea. These two matters should be publicized to let more people know."

At this moment, Mao Youlan stepped forward, extended her small hand, and smiled, "Hello, Expert Lin!"

"I've heard a lot about you and have seen your videos and photos online. Back then, I thought with your qualifications, you more than had what it takes to be a media idol."

"Seeing you in person now, I realize you're still not very photogenic!"

Lin Jie shook Mao Youlan's hand and politely said, "You're flattering me. To be a media idol, acting skills come first. As they say, expertise is essential, and I'm clueless in that area."

"These days, all you need are popular young faces, no acting skills required. If you pursued this direction, I'm sure there'd be no problem for you."

After a few jokes, Mao Youlan continued, "From Officer Kong, I learned that the two stories we want to report are linked to you. So we want to conduct an interview with you..."

Instinctively, Lin Jie refused, saying, "There's no need, really."

"I'm just a doctor, and all I do is treat patients. Your program should be interviewing social experts, legal experts, or psychological experts instead."

Mao Youlan smiled and said, "You were involved in both of these incidents. For this episode, I wanted to connect the two stories from your perspective."

"Of course, the program will also include interviews with sociologists and psychologists."

"Expert Lin, could you please take the trouble, what do you think?"

Cheng Xingguang also chimed in, "Expert Lin, this program has high ratings. Appearing on this episode not only alerts the public but also promotes the hospital, achieving two goals with one shot."

After saying that, he winked at Lin Jie.

Filming a TV episode seemed like a novel experience, and Lin Jie was somewhat eager to give it a shot.

He asked, "Will it take a lot of time? I've never been on TV before, and I'm afraid I might embarrass myself."

Mao Youlan laughed, "If all goes well, it'll take at most half a day. It won't take much of your time."

"I've watched some of your videos online. You speak with such eloquence and have the air of an expert. Just perform like you usually do, and that'll be enough."

"Alright, then I'll give it a shot!" Lin Jie decided.

On Mao Youlan's suggestion, Lin Jie donned a doctor's coat and began the interview and recording of the program in Cheng Xingguang's office.

When the camera focused on him, and the microphone was pointed towards him, Lin Jie was dazed for a moment.

After being in a daze for a while, Lin Jie realized that he needed to speak.

He quickly collected himself and said, "It was almost nine at night when the property manager called me, saying there was someone looking for me to ask about organ donation."

"As a surgeon, I deeply understand how rare organ donors are. Many patients pass away while waiting for a suitable organ transplant."

"Downstairs in the reception area, I met someone who claimed to be Huang Youjie..."

Guided by Mao Youlan, Lin Jie recounted his first meeting with You Huangjie, shared his concerns, and then asked his friend Officer Kong Mingqing to investigate this person.

Later on, Lin Jie recounted how he received feedback from Kong Mingqing, learning that this person claiming to be Huang Youjie might be a suspect in a motorcycle accident that caused one death and one injury.

Lin Jie also mentioned receiving a letter from You Huangjie, akin to a suicide note, and recounted its content, explaining You Huangjie's reasons for his actions, his remorse, and his quest for redemption.

He said with emotion, "If there hadn't been reckless motorcycle racing at midnight causing a heart attack for You Huangjie's wife, perhaps none of this would have happened today."

"But in real life, there are no 'ifs'!"

"Every choice we make will either positively or negatively impact others, then create a ripple effect. When this ripple comes back to us and if it's all negative..."

"We should ask ourselves how the initial stone we threw that caused the ripples may have affected others!"

Mao Youlan retrieved the microphone and said, "Expert Lin, what you said had a lot of dialectical philosophy in it!"

Lin Jie awkwardly smiled and said, "It's purely spontaneous, my cultural immersion is limited. If what I said isn't appropriate, you can edit it out."

Mao Youlan nodded gently, saying, "Expert Lin, take a break, next we'll shoot the segment about the baby being put in the fridge..."

The simple interview took less than two hours to finish.

After that, Lin Jie was a bit miserable.

Under the direction of the program team, he moved around different places in the hospital, sometimes walking briskly, sometimes running all over, dressed in surgical attire, holding a scalpel and mimicking some surgery moves, all for the program's material...

They even brought a baby to Lin Jie to film a posed video of rescuing a child.

The filming continued until dusk before wrapping up.

In the end, Mao Youlan exchanged contact information with Lin Jie and shook hands to say goodbye, "Expert Lin, the episode will air next Tuesday at nine in the evening, be sure to watch!"
