The Strongest Dandy in the City-Chapter 427: Whose Prey Will the Deer Be?

Duan Nan and Lu Shengrong followed Ye Chenfeng into the operating room. The patient on the operating table was anesthetized and in a state of unconsciousness. Although it was a benign tumor, its location in the lungs made it a very tricky case for most doctors.

Ye Chenfeng didn’t rush to start the procedure. Lu Shengrong, on the other hand, was anxious and asked with a troubled face, "Master, what should we do now? Do you need me and Old Duan to prepare something for you?"

Ye Chenfeng shook his head, took out the silver needles he carried with him, and said, "Don’t be so flustered. It’s just a benign tumor. You two go and disinfect these silver needles for me."

Ye Chenfeng’s gaze swept over the operating room and landed on two monitors in the corner of the wall. They must have been installed for those outside to watch the procedure. If it weren’t for Ye Chenfeng’s reluctance to cause too much of a stir, he could have just infused the patient with Soul Force to eliminate the lung tumor without the need for silver needles; he was only doing this as a slight disguise.

"Master, why do you want me to disinfect the silver needles? Do you really intend to treat the patient’s lung tumor with acupuncture?" After seeing Ye Chenfeng nod, Lu Shengrong’s tone became even more urgent: "Master, I know you are incredibly skilled in acupuncture, but acupuncture alone can’t eliminate the tumor in the patient’s lungs. Surgery is necessary to remove it."

Standing nearby, Duan Nan intervened with a wave of his hand, "Old Lu, you have to trust the master’s skills. We just need to follow master’s instructions. Leave the rest to him."

...

Inside a spacious conference room at Shanghe Private Hospital, medical authorities from various countries were seated.

At the front of the conference room was a large fifty-inch LCD TV showing images split into thirds, clearly displaying the interiors of three operating rooms, and the images were quite sharp.

In the operating rooms of Jess and Aoki Koichi, they had already started to operate on their patients. In contrast, Ye Chenfeng yawned casually, stretched lazily, while Duan Nan and Lu Shengrong helped him disinfect the silver needles. The needles were quickly disinfected and handed over to Ye Chenfeng.

When the people in the conference room saw Ye Chenfeng’s actions, a torrent of murmurs arose. Although they had witnessed Ye Chenfeng’s acupuncture skills, they did not believe that acupuncture alone could eliminate the lung tumor. freewebnøvel_com

"This is just playing with the patient’s life. Can a few needles really eliminate the tumor inside the patient?" Upon seeing the images on the screen, Wester felt relieved, convinced that Huaxia Country had no chance of winning today’s competition.

"I propose that we immediately stop Huaxia Country’s ludicrous treatment method. They don’t deserve to participate in the International Medical Competition at all," Jiang Chuan Tomohisa said, eager to kick someone when they were down.

The hearts of the many medical authorities from Huaxia Country present sank completely. They began to regret agreeing to let Ye Chen represent Huaxia’s medical community in the competition. It was no longer just a matter of pride; both sides had signed an agreement beforehand stipulating that if one side lost, those medical authorities present would no longer be able to practice medicine.

After some murmuring and low discussions among the members of the International Medical Competition’s jury, they said, "Considering that Huaxia Country’s participant has not yet posed any threat to the patient’s body, the competition will continue. Should there be any emergency, we will immediately disqualify Huaxia Country’s participation."

Of course, the jury, being impartial, would not just cancel Huaxia’s right to participate on one person’s suggestion.

"Siying, do you think Ye Chenfeng can cure the patient’s benign tumor?" Jiang Yumeng asked quietly.

Yi Siying pursed her red lips and said, "I can’t see through Ye Chenfeng. However, judging from his confident demeanor, he must be sure of himself in today’s competition. But to eliminate a tumor with just a few silver needles? I definitely don’t believe in that and I don’t want to waste my brain cells thinking about it. The results will be out soon anyway."

...

In the operating room.

Ye Chenfeng first used his Soul Force to probe the patient’s internal tumor situation, and then lifted the patient’s clothes, infusing the silver needles with a steady stream of Soul Force. The needles, like dancing silver snakes, were rapidly inserted into the patient’s lung area.

After all eight silver needles had been placed on the patient’s abdomen, Ye Chenfeng let out a slight breath and gently twisted the needles with his fingers, a practice he pursued simply to ensure an uninterrupted flow of Soul Force into the patient’s body.

About twenty minutes later, Ye Chenfeng withdrew the eight silver needles from the patient’s abdomen and once again used his Soul Force to assess the condition of the patient’s lungs. Only after he found that the tumor had been completely eradicated did he unhurriedly pack the needles back into the acupuncture kit.

"Master, could it be that the silver needles had no effect on the tumor in the patient’s lungs? Let’s proceed with the surgery immediately!" Lu Shengrong, seeing Ye Chenfeng put away the needles, thought Ye Chenfeng was at a loss.

Ye Chenfeng said offhandedly, "The tumor inside the patient has been completely eliminated; we can leave the operating room now."

"The tumor inside the patient has been completely eliminated?" Lu Shengrong repeated Ye Chenfeng’s words to himself, his eyes widening more than lanterns, his voice trembling as he said, "What? Master, you’re not joking with me, are you?"

"Alright, Old Lu, does it look like the master is joking? I told you not to worry earlier, is such a minor issue enough to trouble our master?" Duan Nan said with a laugh, patting Lu Shengrong’s shoulder.

...

In the conference room of Shanghe Private Hospital, everyone saw Ye Chenfeng packing up the needles, ready to leave the operating room, and one by one, they assumed Ye Chenfeng, the Chinese medicine practitioner, was helpless with the surgery.

Seeing victory as an absolute certainty, Wester’s tone became even more unrestrained, "I actually thought Chinese medicine was something remarkable! That little runt must have had a fluke yesterday; today his true colors have been revealed!"

"We wanted to ban you from practicing medicine in the future? Now I want to see who can practice medicine after this." Jiang Chuan Zhijiu was also extremely elated; he had been stifling his frustrations all night, and today he could finally fully vent them.

The authoritative figures and rising stars of Huaxia Country’s medical field grew pale for a moment. Since they could not hear the sound from the operating room in the surveillance footage, they, too, assumed Ye Chenfeng had given up on the contest.

Five minutes later, when Ye Chenfeng, Duan Nan, and Lu Shengrong entered the conference room, all eyes immediately focused on Ye Chenfeng, knowing that after this, Huaxia Country’s medical community would forever have no chance of redemption.

"You from Huaxia Country have lost, and you must honor the agreement we laid out before. You’ve signed a contract, and even if you want to go back on it, you can’t," Wester declared, his demeanor that of a bully reveling in triumph.

"Kid, didn’t you say yesterday that Chinese medicine was so powerful? How come today you’ve turned into such a pig? In our eyes, Chinese medicine is only fit to be called trash," said Jiang Chuan Zhijiu with a laugh.

Ye Chenfeng looked at Wester and Jiang Chuan Zhijiu as if they were idiots and said, "Do you two have a problem with your brains? Did I say I lost? I’ve already completed the surgery, and the tumor inside the patient has been eliminated."

"Hahaha—" Wester laughed uproariously: "That’s the funniest joke I’ve ever heard. You said the patient’s lung tumor was eliminated, right? The hospital can immediately arrange a physical examination for the patient, and I want to see how long you can keep up your tough talk!"

The judges also thought Ye Chenfeng was just trying to win a verbal battle, but a contest must look like a contest after all. So, they ordered the hospital to conduct a physical examination for the patient Ye Chenfeng had treated. But in their eyes, the examination was pointless, for they were convinced that Huaxia Country had already lost in this competition. (To be continued.
