From the second day of the new year to the fourth, Lin Jie lived quite leisurely and comfortably.

Without needing to consider surgical plans, no one forcing him to study, and no patients interrupting him, Lin Jie spent most of his time at home, except for accompanying Lin Miao or An Kexin to go shopping and watching movies, or visiting Zhang Xiaoxiao and Yao Henan in the hospital.

When at home, Lin Jie would put on the cartoon fleece pajamas given to him by An Kemeng, lounge on the sofa watching TV or playing on the computer, and would sleep whenever he felt drowsy, living a truly idle and lazy life.

That afternoon, Lin Jie was half asleep when he heard the buzzing of his phone vibrating.

Picking up the phone, he saw it was a call from An Kexin.

Answering the call, Lin Jie lazily asked, "Finished talking with them?"

"Yes, had a cup of coffee and sat together for over half an hour, the conversation went pretty well."

Lin Jie casually asked, "Pretty well? Does that mean it's settled?"

"How is that possible!"

An Kexin retorted, "The other party just didn't explicitly refuse."

"He's not stupid; he definitely wants to wait until the holiday is over, after work resumes, and after Tiande Research Institute announces the further development plan regarding the change of cooperation partner, before making a decision."

"If the new benefits provided by the institute do not meet his expectations, only then will he truly consider our invitation."

Lin Jie lightly said, "Oh," then reminded, "Don't hang yourself on one tree; similar engineering and technical researchers should be available elsewhere too, cast a wide net."

An Kexin hummed lightly on the phone and said, "You don't have to tell me; I've already started casting a wide net here."

"Ajie, I've received some definite news today. This time, partnering with Tiande Research Institute, is a newly-established joint venture by Luo Group and Zhengda Hospital. Guess who is in charge?"

"Is it Luo Pengyi?"

An Kexin softly said, "No! It's his wife, Cai Yanhe."

"I knew it, she's not someone who can stay idle. Just married for over two months, and already can't bear to remain quiet, wanting to come out and do something."

"I guess she looks at her husband and sees someone who can't stand on his own, so she wants to perform herself and gain Luo Wantong's approval."

Lin Jie chuckled, "Looks like Luo Pengyi married a strong and ambitious wife, I bet his future life will be quite depressing."

He couldn't help but relate it to himself and said, "I should also marry a very capable woman, but it doesn't seem to be a big deal."

An Kexin coquettishly said, "In front of you, I'm not a strong woman, just a little woman, and sometimes even a babysitter, okay?"

"Besides, you've already reached the pinnacle in the medical field; no matter how strong I am, I can't surpass you."

"That Luo Pengyou is far behind..."

At this moment, Lin Jie's phone received a prompt for another incoming call, so he said, "Kexin, there's another call coming in; let's talk when you get home."

After saying this, he switched the call.

On the phone, he immediately heard Tian Xiangyu gasping for breath, "Teacher, teacher, right now I'm with Guo Peng, Zeng Yang, and Yan Beichen, rushing to a town hospital near the ski resort."

Hearing this, Lin Jie, who was originally reclining on the sofa, immediately sprang up and asked, "What's going on? Is someone injured?"

"Teacher, none of us are hurt!"

Tian Xiangyu explained, "For the past few days, it's been snowing heavily at the ski resort, with thick snow falling. The highways and everything are closed."

"Leaving here, you can only take poorly conditioned national highways or small roads. A tour bus just left the ski resort not far when it got into a collision and overturned accident; reportedly, many people are seriously injured."

"The bigger hospitals are quite a distance away, and in such heavy snow weather, the roads are very difficult to navigate, so we have to rely on the nearest town hospital to treat these people."

"But the medical conditions of this town hospital and the ability of the doctors are very limited, and some of the injured simply can't be treated, so they broadcasted for any doctors possibly visiting the ski resort."

"Hearing this broadcast, we volunteered."

After listening to Tian Xiangyu's account, Lin Jie felt relieved; it's good that these guys are alright.

He then praised, "You did the right thing. As medical workers, at times like this, you have an unshirkable duty and should step up."

"Teacher, there's something we need your help with!"

Tian Xiangyu further explained, "I'm somewhat aware of the level of town doctors. I've done some volunteer clinics and medical guidance in a few towns before."

"To say they are at the level of hernia surgeries, appendectomy surgeries, is generous; such surgeries they seldom perform."

"If no other doctors join from the ski resort, we should be the main force in this rescue."

Tian Xiangyu paused on the phone before asking, "Teacher, if this incident has many and seriously injured patients, although Guo Peng, Zeng Yang, and Yan Beichen are not yet official doctors, they also need to perform surgeries."

"You know their level best, teacher."

"Please briefly say what you think, so I can understand and make arrangements based on the actual situation."

Lin Jie pondered a little and said, "Guo Peng and Zeng Yang's skills are roughly the same. Relatively, Guo Peng is more skilled in bone injuries, while Zeng Yang is better at handling internal organ injuries."

"If truly no one else can be used and the patients' condition is extremely urgent..."

He found a comparison and said, "You can regard them as low-power versions of Dr. Lei and Professor Chen."

"As for Yan Beichen, her skill is quite weak; treat her as your assistant or let her handle lightly injured patients."

Tian Xiangyu responded, "Okay, teacher, I understand. If there are any problems I can't handle, I'll contact you again!"

"No problem!"

Lin Jie then reminded, "I will also tell Dr. Lei and Professor Chen to be ready to answer your calls for remote guidance at any time."

After hanging up, he immediately called Chen Shi and Lei Jun, informed them of the situation, and got their assurance.

He then went online to check the weather and incident reports of the ski resort.

He didn't find any news related to the incident but saw a snowstorm warning issued by the weather station and reports on snow disaster relief and road clearing efforts.

Of course, Lin Jie saw more images of joyful scenes under the Happy New Year atmosphere, like watching snow, snowball fights, and building snowmen.

Nearly an hour later, he received another call from Tian Xiangyu.

This time it was a video call, and on the phone screen, Tian Xiangyu's face looked quite grim.

"Teacher, the situation is worse than we imagined; Guo Peng and Zeng Yang have already started surgery with the assistance of a few town hospital doctors and nurses."

"I've encountered a tricky situation here."

"What is the situation?"

With this question, the phone screen shook for a moment and then showed a bald, unconscious male with a long, narrow wound on his forehead, exposing his skull.

"Teacher, there are two patients here with cranial injuries and both are unconscious. Without CT equipment, I can't determine whose injuries are more urgent."

"I can only tell that if these two are not treated soon, they will both be life-threatening!"

"Teacher, please take a look; who should I save?"

Another life-and-death question.

This is the situation Lin Jie dislikes the most, but he still has to face it.

At this moment, another patient appeared on the phone screen.

This was a young woman, her hair also shaved off, but with a somewhat indistinct wound on the right side of her cranium.

The phone screen was a bit shaky and unclear, and Lin Jie could not see it clearly.

He instructed, "I need some high-resolution detailed pictures, and also mention their basic physical conditions and other injuries."

Soon, several high-resolution photos of the wounds and pupils were sent over.

The basic metrics of these two, such as blood pressure and heart rate, as well as their body injuries, were briefly reported by Tian Xiangyu.

After carefully reviewing the photos, Lin Jie thought of a question and hurriedly asked, "Are the cranial surgery equipments complete?"

Tian Xiangyu smiled bitterly, "Teacher, how could they be? I've cobbled together a trepanning set, and the procedures after craniotomy can only be replaced by some simple surgical instruments."

Lin Jie said solemnly, "Save the woman."

"Her cranial injury is the most serious?" Tian Xiangyu couldn't help but ask.

"On the contrary, my judgment is that her injury is somewhat lighter."

Lin Jie explained, "Given the current conditions, performing her surgery, you have a higher success rate..."
