Golden Time (JungYong)

Chapter 59

A week pa.s.sed.

Suhyuk seemed to have collected blood like crazy.

Although he also did things like disinfection and simple tests sometimes, the main task a.s.signed to him was blood collection.

Its the first time I have collected so much blood like this And all that in just one week.

Intern, sir, can I ask you to collect blood from patient Lim Harin?

Nurses began to ask him for a favor like that without any hesitation.

Suhyuk nodded his head gladly.

It was a basic examination practice to a.n.a.lyze the blood of a patient and at the same time, it was a very important job to do, because blood can reveal a clue to figuring out the ident.i.ty of most diseases.

So, even if its a simple technique, Suhyuk took blood with a good sense of duty.

Morning time pa.s.sed and lunch time came.

Fortunately, he was done with his a.s.signed quota of blood collection, so he moved to the elevator to go out.

At that moment, he heard a womans voice.

How come you disinfected it that stupid way? Its such an easy job. Didnt I tell you not to make a mistake?

Suhyuks head turned to the side at the sharp voice.

Resident Oh Heejin was frowning, looking at her intern peers.

She swept up her hair as if she could not calm down her anger.

Sizing up what they were talking about, the intern made the patients wound open more while he was disinfecting it.

She then noticed Suhyuk.

Have a good lunch.

And then she opened her mouth again, Just be like him, no more or no less. Nurses call him One-shot, One-kill Cant you solve it with only a couple of attempts?

Suhyuk, who bowed his head to her, laughed bitterly and entered the elevator.

He could see the interns face when the elevator door was closed. He felt sorry for him somehow.

Suhyuk came out and looked around.

He said he would pa.s.s by not too late

Suhyuk called somewhere. sounded out the recorded automatic message.

Is he busy?

When he was about to make another call, someone said, Hey, Suhyuk.

He turned his head to the side at the familiar voice.

A man wearing a white suit and a black tie. A figure as handsome as a model, Dongsu.

I was not late man. I went to the bathroom.

Whats wrong with your hand?

He was wrapping a blood-stained bandage on his hand roughly. At his question, Dongsu opened his mouth with a peek at his hand,

Im a bit hurt because that son of a b.i.t.c.h struggled like h.e.l.l.

Did you go to the the site where the detective caught the criminal?

It was not once or twice when he questioned the appropriateness of Dongsus profession.

The prosecutor Dongsu was following criminal suspects ahead of the detectives.

If you are doing things like this, why did you become a prosecutor instead of a detective? Dongsu responded briefly, Because the prosecutor has more to show off.

How can it be the only reason Suhyuk just could not help but shake his head.

So they both had a light lunch at the restaurant near the hospital and headed for a coffee shop. He had about 30 minutes of free time as long as he did not get a call.

So, can you manage your work well?

Suhyuk nodded lightly at his question.

Well, I know you cant live without a patient.

He was a guy who ran to a sick person, putting aside all his work.

How about you?

Donsu said, with a slight frown, Oh boy. I now know how many crazy people there are in the world.

Yes, there were incidents that did not surface; they were crimes that people could not even imagine. Only coming in novels? Horrible contents such as seen in the movies? That was nothing.

At that moment, his cell phones rang, Yes, this is prosecutor Kim Dongsu.

Suhyuk looked at Dongsu on the phone pleasantly.

He studied so much with his eyes becoming bloodshot just to achieve what he wanted at the end of the day.

He could imagine how much his mother liked it. He just felt proud of him like as if he were his mother.

How this son of a b.i.t.c.h can murmured Dongsu who hung up the phone.

What is it?

Dongu sighed long at his question.

The suspect is his keeping his mouth shut, and using the right to remain silent.

Whats the type of crime he commited?

Its a murder case. This crazy a.s.shole murdered his mom, dad, and sister and set fire to the house.

Suhyuk frowned, saying, Does he not have a mental illness?

Dongsu laughed, thinking to himself, Hey, I know youre a doctor even if you dont say things like that. Its not a mental illness. That b.a.s.t.a.r.d is just an a.s.shole.

What is the motive for his crime?

I hear he had an adhesive in his mouth. Obviously he did it to get insurance money.

Dozens of crimes take place every day. Criminals who commit unbelievable crimes. Crimes overflowing everywhere. Despite such criminals, it was amazing to see the world going around without collapsing.

Ill have to get going first.

Dongsu, rising from the seat, was in such an emotional mood as if he wanted to rush to the suspect to grab his neck immediately. His character clearly showed it. Suhyuk also rose from his seat and opened his mouth,

Did you see it on the news? Coercive investigation Did you not see it on the news that a detective a.s.saulted a suspect? I hope you do not come out on TV news like that.

Dongsu laughed slightly.

Those a.s.sholes need some beating, and there are invisible methods to do so.

Suhyuk could not help but laugh dumbfoundedly. This was a guy who would not listen to him no matter what he said. Suhyuk and Dongsu parted in front of the coffee shop, promising to meet again next time.

***

Suhyuk, who entered the hospital lobby, was called.

It was the call of the doctor in charge, Oh Heejin.

He had to move quickly.

Did you call?

She, turning over the chart, nodded her head.

Youre going to the emergency room with me now? Its the first time you are visiting a pediatric emergency room?

As a PK student I went into the general emergency room. What about the other interns?

The interns a.s.signed to the pediatrics department were in total 4 persons including himself. Though he looked around everywhere, he could not find them, who usually looked crestfallen like fallen reeds.

I gave them some break time because they looked tired.

Break time was in name only, because it was like stopping all their work. It was her way of giving a hard time to new interns. After two or three hours, though, they would show up again.

Itll be a little noisy.

Fluttering her gown, she walked ahead.

The pediatric emergency room was completely different from the general emergency room.

It was noisy, to say the least.

Many children cried and threw a tantrum loudly enough to hit the eardrums of those present.

Nurses soothed those little patients, and the doctors were busy moving around here and there.

Oh Heejin approached a doctor examining the body of a child lying down. It was Park Jungnam in his third year of residency.

Sir, Im here to a.s.sist you.

She was called by Park to the emergency room.

When they were short staffed like this in the emergency room, those residents who had spare time came to their rescue. Or, more correctly speaking, they were forced to do so by their seniors orders.

Yes, thank you, Park said and gestured with one eye.

The child in her moms arms kept coughing.

The temperature is so high. Its not a simple cold.

She nodded and moved to the child.

You must be a new intern, right? Park caught Suhyuks hand.

Yes, Im Lee Suhyuk.

Yes, I heard you are the Prince of blood vessels. I need your helping hand as Im busy.

Then he pointed to the child lying in bed. A girl who looked about six years old.

She was such a commendable girl that she suppressed her tears even when she came into the emergency room.

I think she had a fracture in her arm and needs an X-ray. You know where the imaging room is, right?

Yes, sir.

Immediately report after taking it, Park said.

Park talked with a middle-aged man who was standing by nervously.

He was the childs father.

I think I need to see an X-ray for an accurate diagnosis.

The middle-aged man asked anxiously, It isnt serious, right?

Maybe the bones are broken, he said.

While the two talked, Suhyuk said, Youre brave, and youre not even crying.

Suhyuk, who carefully brought the child to a stretcher, moved the wheeled bed.

While moving to the imaging room, Suhyuk looked over at the childs body condition.

There were bruises on her arms and on her side.

Yet the child did not shed a tear. Tears were welled up just around her eyes.

Hold on a little bit. How did you get hurt?

I fell.

Where?

At that moment, a voice suddenly popped up from the side.

She fell from the stairs.

It was the childs father who followed with an anxious look.

At his words, Suhyuk breathed a short sigh.

A childs bones are weak, and easily broken even with a light impact.

Will my daughter be okay?

His voice showed his genuine concern and love for his daughter.

Suhyuk nodded his head as if to soothe him.

Shell be okay.

Fortunately she got hurt only with fractures.

The situation would have been even worse if she had hurt her head.

Protector, please wait a moment here.

Suhyuk went into the imaging room.

Was it because she was separated from her dad? Tears fell from her eyes.

I will not give you a shot, Ill just take the X-ray. It does not hurt and its quick.

The child nodded. On such occasions tears usually ran down.

Suhyuk stroked her head once. At that moment, he could notice something strange.

Do you have bruises on your ears?

The childs face was fine. Then the skin inside her right ear was dark.

She doesnt seem to have it hurt today.

The inside part of her ears was languid as if it were stuck with lots of earlobes.

The cells were dead. Of course, it will recover naturally over time.

Once he found that strange area, he felt like other parts of her body were not normal.

Did she say she fell from the stairs?

He could not find any abrasions on her body common to such an accident.

Suhyuk quickly scanned her body here and there.

If she rolled down the stairs with both hands up, could she get these kind of bruises?

One tries to instinctively protect their brains and organs. When one falls, they stretch their arms without realising it, and when one falls from the stairs, they lift their arms to wrap their heads and chests.

And her right arm was likely fractured.

You came here for an X-ray?

The radiation engineer approached.

Yes, her right arm.

Suhyuk smiled at the child.

It doesnt hurt.

Suhyuk, watch the imaging briefly, went out of the room.

Yejins guardian.

Her father sat up at Suhyuks voice.

Does she need a surgery if she has fractures?

Suhyuk nodded his head at his uneasy voice.

Yes, of course.

How pitiful she is to have a surgery It must hurt, he sighed a long sigh.

Yeah, how much does surgery cost?

Guardian.

He rubbed his face as if he were was.h.i.+ng it, and lifted his head slowly.

He could see Suhyuks eyes looking at him with a cool gaze.
