Chapter 237: The First Night Effect

"Signs of an eruption of Mount St. Helens are becoming more and more apparent, according to the advice of volcanologists—"

The TV was on, Zheng Jianguo turned around and went to the room that was opened as a guest room to find pajamas, and then went into the bathroom barefoot, and put water in the bath that was more than two meters wide and three meters long, I don't know if it was smoked by wine or I felt the warmth of home, but it was the first time I felt unprecedented loneliness - I am not short of money now, why do I have to fight so hard?

MD and PhD?

Nobel Prize in Physics and Medicine?

I wonder what will happen when these two awards are in hand?

The girls should take the initiative to insult themselves, right?

In an instant, Zheng Jianguo, who had entered the state of a sage before, showed a lewd smile, until he took off his pajamas in front of the huge glass mirror, and then looked at the ribs in the mirror and was a little distracted: "There used to be a lot of meat on it, have you grown taller again?"

Zheng Jianguo in the mirror has a feeling of thinness compared to his impression, the original vaguely visible outline on the ribs looks like skinny at this time, but it is not a standard melon seed face, but it is the same as before, without the emaciated feeling of the raised cheekbones, I can't help but scratch my head with some long hair, and I know what work to do tomorrow.

Get a haircut and make a workout plan!

In a day's time, Zheng Jianguo was not busy with anything else, after a few phone calls, Alec and Harris ran again, put the barbell and simple exercise equipment in the basement, and after sending the two away, the exercise bike first appeared in his mind, but he quickly shook his head before this idea showed its original form, this thing will put a lot of pressure on the sensitive parts after practicing for a long time, and the mount point is just the sensitive point in the sensitive part - it is not as good as the rowing machine.

It's just that there doesn't seem to be a rowing machine at this time?

found something out again, Zheng Jianguo had no idea of looking for a note, this thing may seem to others to be a business project, but his current stall is too big.

A little leisurely time passed, Zheng Jianguo dragged the quilt to the sofa early after dinner, and after sleeping all night last night, he checked the CCTV video, only to find that he slept all night as if he was not asleep, and he remembered that he recognized the bed in his previous life.

Recognition of the bed is generally considered to be a psychological phenomenon, which mostly appears in the middle-aged and elderly age, and the most intuitive manifestation is that after leaving the bed you have used, changing to a new bed will cause discomfort.

The reason for this is because the bed-recognizing patients lying on the new bed will have a loss of security, which is reflected in the fact that they always feel uncomfortable, but they can't find out where they are uncomfortable if they really want to explore, and in severe cases, they will even cause sleep disorders - in the eyes of experts, there is a special name "first night effect".

Of course, words are like diseases, and they will get used to it with more times, but in Zheng Jianguo's case, after he went to Qi City from the thatched hut in Shanxian County, and then to the dormitory of the training center and even the embassy residence and university dormitory, it has never happened, fortunately, he also knows how to deal with this kind of thing, and he can go back and forth on the sofa and bed for a few nights.

"This is the disease of wealth—"

Zheng Jianguo, who was lying on the sofa, looked at the TV and muttered, his solution is almost a means of suffering and then tasting some sweetness, sleeping on the sofa overnight will make some parts uncomfortable, just like when the alarm clock rang the next morning, he touched his neck and gasped: "It's a pillow-"

At 6:50 in the morning, Zheng Jianguo touched his sore neck and washed with his head tilted, and then put two white coats and a pair of clothes and shoes that he would use in the unit into his pocket, and the other bag contained simple toiletries and a small amount of cash.

As for the wallet, bank card and checkbook, Zheng Jianguo does not plan to take it to the hospital, after all, unless it is the kind of deputy director of Hardison, I am afraid that people who often follow the media know that his luck is not missed, if he really wants to get a vote from him, then he will not lose too much at that time.

At 7:50 a.m. on April 3, 1980, Zheng Jianguo went out in a casual sweatshirt, jeans, and canvas shoes, about 1,000 meters southwest of St. Paul Street.

Of course, this is a straight line distance, when Zheng Jianguo drove a Plymouth car, admiring the rising sun in mid-air, and smoothly got off the car in the parking lot at the entrance, the sound of a bicycle swishing passed by, and the woman in the car had curly hair and looked back at him.

"If you get into a traffic accident in front of the hospital, you can save $50 in ambulance costs—"

Glancing at the electronic watch on his wrist, Zheng Jianguo knew that he had arrived 25 minutes earlier than the required 8:30, and he understood that the female doctor who was in a hurry was afraid that she would not be able to get full attendance - two hundred dollars was still a lot of income for a non-attending doctor.

"Woo-woo-"

When Zheng Jianguo entered the emergency room, a four-meter-high ambulance came to the entrance and stopped, and then saw the closed emergency room door being pushed open, and four or five men and women wearing doctor's clothing, nursing clothing and first-aid clothing appeared pushing an emergency bed, and the first aid officer in the ambulance quickly shouted: "The patient got stuck during the morning fitness exercise, and after asking him to make his muscles protrude in order to lose weight, he didn't drink water and took diuretics since the night before——"

"Did you eat anything else the night before yesterday?"

The man in the doctor's coat spoke, and Zheng Jianguo saw the others erect a naked man from the ambulance, wearing only a big pants, and his upper arm muscles felt thicker than his thighs just by visual inspection, and the most stunned thing was that when he was framed horizontally, he still maintained the state of showing his muscles on the stage, and said in a dry voice: "I took some prednisolone——"

"Prednisolone?"

An ambulance worker in a first-aid suit next to him asked, and the man in a doctor's coat also said: "One of the steroids, fortunately, I called the ambulance, if someone mistakenly injected him with saline, then he would cause incurable kidney failure, didn't you inject him with saline?"

"No, I know people like them will eat some messy things, so I notified you when I received someone, and now it's okay, whoever of you signs on it, he's yours. ”

In dozens of seconds, the emergency bed that came out carried the patient back to the emergency room, Zheng Jianguo took a heavy breath and entered the emergency room, looked at a hanging curtain divided into compartments to the front of the service desk, looked at the nursing clothes on the curly-haired woman with a curious face behind the desk and the white-toothed brother next to her, and showed a bright smile: "Hello, is Director Bakerson here?"

"Director Baxon, I saw him just now, oh, he's there, may I ask if you-"

The curly-haired woman is different from the melon seed face and long face of the white girl in Zheng Jianguo's impression, the eyes on the round face are big and round, the nose bridge is not high, but the nose tip is a little protruding, fortunately, her eyebrows can attract the attention of the vast majority of the eyes, putting aside the shortcomings of the nose, the lips are a little thin, and the appearance alone is still middle-to-upper, at this time, after seeing Zheng Jianguo's scrutinizing gaze, he said: "I am an assistant nurse-"

"Hello, Nurse Marion Claire, I'm Zheng Jianguo—"

Seeing that the other party introduced himself, Zheng Jianguo's eyes also knew the other party's name from the other party's badge, but when the surname Manion appeared in his mind, he couldn't help but look at the other party's appearance again, and said to the stunned white tooth brother next to him: "I'm here to report today." ”

"Oh, you're a new intern?"

Manion Claire looked Zheng Jianguo's clothes up and down, she couldn't believe that there would be an intern dressed like this to report, and the white-toothed brother with dirty pigtails next to her had already spoken: "Claire, this is Zheng, the youngest medical student at Harvard Medical School, only two years younger than Serena Young, who graduated last year—"

"Well, Serena Young is my girlfriend. ”

Hearing this Brother White Tooth talk about Yang Na, Zheng Jianguo opened his mouth with some surprise, and saw that Brother White Tooth had a black face and was stunned in an instant, and Marnion Claire next to him instantly came back to his senses: "Oh, you are a student from that republic?"

"If you mean that the international student who was specially recruited by Harvard Medical School in the Republic is under the list, I'm sorry I'm going to report to the director, let's get to know each other later, how about it?"

Zheng Jianguo didn't expect that this nurse didn't know him, and he was not too surprised in his heart, there are still many people who don't watch TV and media at this time, and if it is now the era of the kind of information network that is all over the world after forty years, I am afraid that his face will have been remembered by countless people.

"Okay, no problem, you go see the director. ”

After knowing the identity of the other party, a deep look of shock flashed on Manion Claire's face, and when he saw Zheng Jianguo turn his head and leave, he looked at the curious white tooth brother next to him and said, "Carter, he's not here to be an intern, is he?"

"I don't look like it, it's not the time for interns to come, according to my experience, it will be time for the residents to report in half a month, but the selection of residents will start every autumn, I find it hard to believe that Zheng has passed the knowledge that normal students take four years to complete in less than a year, and master——"

Carter shook his head and looked at Zheng Jianguo to stand by the curtain that was raised, and then saw him lean forward and say something to Director Beckson who came out of the curtain, and Marnion next to him had already leaned over a few steps, and the latter only had time to hear Beckson nod and say: " Since the hospital has issued such an agreement for you, I can only abide by the hospital's original intention of cultivating special talents, Zheng, since your residency training program involves the scope of PhD, then you will have one and a half PhD hours a week, and the other three and a half days in the emergency room, how about it?"

"MD and PhD joint training program?"

Ma Niong looked at Zheng Jianguo, who was nodding his head, with a surprised face, and then heard him speak: "Since you have communicated with the hospital, then I can only abide by this training agreement, can I go through the formalities now?"

"Pliny, Zheng will be your resident doctor in the future, go and take him to the administrative office to get his badge and pager, and by the way, tell him the rules of our resident hospital——"

Beckson is different from the tall white man in Zheng Jianguo's impression, his height is about the same as him, but his eyes are dark and big, and the words used between his words seem to jump out of his mouth so vigorously, Zheng Jianguo also looked at him and patted the tall doctor who was busy working by the bedside and said, but he didn't expect that this Dr. Prini had a receding hairline at a young age, and the hair on the top of his head seemed to be thinning a lot, and he hurriedly said: "Hello, I'm Zheng Jianguo, you can call me Zheng!"

"Hello, Zheng, it's a pleasure to meet you, I'm senior resident Pliny Bolton, you can call me Pliney, welcome to the Massachusetts General Hospital emergency room-"

Priny Bolton straightened up and said with a smile, but after these words fell on Zheng Jianguo's ears, he couldn't help but let his eyes drift down, and sure enough, he saw Beckon next to him tilting his head and looking at Pliny, who smiled at Zheng Jianguo unknowingly and said, "Let's go, we still have something to do—"

"Forget it this week, go to the emergency room before eight o'clock in the morning next Sunday. ”

Glancing at Pliny with a slight frown again, Beckson said to Zheng Jianguo with a straight face, and the latter smiled and nodded, and when he looked at Pliny's hairline again, he felt a little sad for this simple-minded senior resident: "Let's go, Dr. Pliny." ”

"Hey, you can call me Pliny, just ask me if you have any questions, I'm glad you joined the Massachusetts General Hospital emergency room, your arrival will greatly increase the importance of the emergency room-"

Leaving the emergency room, Pliny said with a little excitement on his face, Zheng Jianguo also knew that this person knew his name, but judging from the fact that the senior resident doctor welcomed him on behalf of the emergency room, this person's EQ was probably lower than that of most medical graduates-

Sure enough, just after Zheng Jianguo followed Pliny through the entry procedures and returned to his residence to tell Yang Na about this person on the phone, he heard her open her mouth in the microphone: "Pliny is a simple-minded person with underdeveloped limbs, he was transferred from internal medicine to the emergency room, and the reason why he was arranged to the emergency room was because he went to report the anesthesiologist for drinking after his first appendectomy."

But you have to pay attention to Manion, this woman has a loose trouser belt, and there are always unlucky people who are infected with syphilis by the doctors who intern at Massachusetts General Hospital every year, and if you really need to release it, then please take precautions, although syphilis is not a time when there is no cure - okay, now tell me about you and Yuna, shall we?"
