Upon hearing Bai Bing say there was an incident, Ye Qiu’s heart tightened. He quickly asked, “Director Bai, what happened?”
“A major car accident occurred on Zhongshan Road. A school bus was hit, and there are over twenty elementary school students on board,” Bai Bing said. “The higher-ups have instructed Jiangzhou Hospital to rescue the injured. I’m on my way to the scene now and will arrive in about twenty minutes.”
Ye Qiu immediately realized the severity of the situation and said, “I’m only three minutes away from Zhongshan Road. I’ll head there right away.”
“Remember, save the injured at all costs.”
“Got it!”
Ye Qiu hung up the phone and turned to Yang Qi, saying, “There’s been a major car accident on Zhongshan Road. I need to go to the scene to save people.”
Upon hearing this, Yang Qi immediately took out a siren and placed it on the car roof.
As the siren blared, the vehicles ahead quickly made way.
Yang Qi swiftly shifted gears and stepped on the gas…
In one smooth motion.
The car shot forward like an arrow.
It took only two minutes and eleven seconds to reach the scene.
“Dr. Ye, we’re here,” Yang Qi said, slamming on the brakes.
“Thanks.” Ye Qiu quickly got out of the car and jogged towards the accident site.
From a distance, Ye Qiu saw that the road ahead was cordoned off with police tape, and several cars had collided within the cordoned area.
Two traffic police officers were maintaining order at the scene.
However, as soon as Ye Qiu approached, he was stopped by one of the traffic police officers.
“What are you doing? This is an accident scene. No unauthorized personnel allowed,” the officer said, his face stern like iron.
“I’m a surgeon from Jiangzhou Hospital. I’m here to rescue the injured,” Ye Qiu said.
The officer scrutinized Ye Qiu for a moment, his expression softening slightly. “Do you have your work ID?”
“I didn’t bring it.”
Who carries their work ID with them all the time?
“Sorry, I can’t let you in,” the officer said, his face turning stern again.
“Why not?” Ye Qiu asked, puzzled.
“We have regulations. No unauthorized personnel are allowed at the accident scene, or I’ll be violating the rules.”
“I just told you, I’m a doctor here to rescue the injured. My superior and colleagues are on their way.”
“Unless you show me your work ID, I can’t let you in. Those are the rules!”
Ye Qiu was getting frustrated. “Rules are dead, but people are alive. Don’t you understand flexibility?”
The officer remained stern, ignoring him.
Time was running out.
Ye Qiu said again, “If we don’t rescue the injured immediately and they face life-threatening danger, will you take responsibility?”
The officer still ignored him.
Ye Qiu was getting angry and was about to force his way in when Yang Qi’s voice sounded from the side, “Let him in.”
The officer was stunned to see a beautiful girl speaking to him in a commanding tone. “Who are you?” he asked.
Yang Qi directly took out a certificate and threw it in the officer’s face, saying coldly, “Take a good look.”
The officer opened the certificate in confusion, and his face changed dramatically. He quickly stood at attention and saluted Yang Qi.
“Good day, Chief!”
Then, the officer respectfully handed the certificate back to Yang Qi with both hands.
Ye Qiu glanced at it and was stunned.
Because he clearly saw the word “Major” in the rank column of Yang Qi’s certificate.
Ye Qiu was very surprised.
Yang Qi was only in her twenties, yet she was a major. Not simple at all!
“Dr. Ye, hurry and treat the injured. I’ll assist you,” Yang Qi reminded him.
Ye Qiu snapped out of it and rushed into the scene.
Six or seven cars had collided, with the school bus being the most severely damaged.
Ye Qiu quickly scanned the scene. The occupants of the other vehicles were injured but didn’t seem to be in critical condition.
Only the school bus was covered in blood, with several lightly injured children crying out in fear.
Ye Qiu’s gaze fell on the children with the most severe injuries, his expression grave.
“Xiao Yang, help me calm the children and get those with minor injuries off the bus first,” Ye Qiu instructed.
Yang Qi nodded and quickly went to soothe the children’s emotions.
Taking this opportunity, Ye Qiu went directly to the driver’s seat to check the driver’s condition.
The driver’s face was slumped against the steering wheel, his head covered in blood.
“Sir, are you okay?” Ye Qiu asked.
The driver didn’t respond at all.
Ye Qiu quickly checked and found that the driver was already dead.
He noticed that the driver’s right foot was firmly pressing the brake, even in death.
“Sigh!”
Ye Qiu sighed and turned to check on the other children.
Five children were bleeding heavily from their wounds. If they weren’t treated immediately, their lives would be in danger.
Ye Qiu had only one set of golden needles and no sterilization tools, but he couldn’t worry about that now. He began treating them directly.
While inserting the needles, he also used Maoshan Talismans to assist in the treatment.
Ten minutes later, the heavy bleeding of the five children was stopped.
Ye Qiu’s forehead was covered in sweat.
At this moment, Yang Qi returned to the bus.
“How are the children?” Ye Qiu asked without looking up.
“They were frightened, but their emotions are stabilized,” Yang Qi said, looking at the five children. “How are they?”
“The heavy bleeding has stopped. They’ll be fine after a few days in the hospital.”
After speaking, Ye Qiu stood up and quickly moved to the last row of the school bus.
Yang Qi followed and was immediately shocked.
In the back row of the bus, a six or seven-year-old boy had multiple injuries on his upper body, and a steel rod had pierced through his chest.
The boy was unconscious.
Ye Qiu took out several golden needles and inserted them into the boy to stop the bleeding.
Then, he activated his Heavenly Eye, his vision penetrating the boy’s skin to see the other end of the steel rod.
Ye Qiu gasped.
His expression became serious.
Seeing him standing still, Yang Qi asked in confusion, “Dr. Ye, what’s wrong?”
“It’s tricky. The other end of the steel rod is only two millimeters away from his heart. Any slight movement could cause massive heart bleeding, and even a deity couldn’t save him then,” Ye Qiu said solemnly.
Yang Qi suggested, “Should we take him to the hospital?”
“No,” Ye Qiu said. “The steel rod is too close to his heart. We can’t move him.”
“Then what should we do?”
Ye Qiu thought for a few seconds and began rolling up his sleeves.
Seeing this, Yang Qi was shocked and quickly asked, “Dr. Ye, you’re not planning to remove the steel rod here, are you? You just said it’s very close to his heart…”
“We have no choice but to take the risk.”
“But if…”
“No ‘if.’ If we don’t remove the steel rod, he’ll die anyway,” Ye Qiu said, gripping the steel rod with one hand.
