158 Xi Chunzhi fell into a coma
He was an intern doctor, and he was not qualified to go, but he was able to get this opportunity because the several official doctors who were originally designated were unwilling to come, and they successively found reasons to ask for leave, and there was a shortage of personnel, so the medical department had no choice but to send him over.
This glass cover is equivalent to a buffer zone between the threshold and the human world, and almost every time the pioneer returns, a few xenos will be mixed in here, which is very risky, and it is a nightmare existence for those doctors who have little combat ability.
Meng Fanchen recognized Tu Ran at a glance, and he was excited in his heart.
It's worthy of being his goddess, the first to come out, it's really good.
He couldn't help but move his steps, wanting to go over to say hello, but his companion next to him grabbed him, "You don't want to die?" She hasn't passed the inspection yet! ”
Meng Fanchen stopped, looked at Tu Ran, then looked at his companion, and said confidently: "Don't worry, Sister Tu Ran will definitely not be possessed by xenomorphs." ”
"Who knows? You just wait here in peace, it's not too late to say hello later, our medical department is responsible for it, and you can't run around. ”
"Okay." Meng Fanchen nodded and retracted his steps, anyway, he knew that the goddess would come back safely, say hello, there is time.
On the other side, Tu Ran had already walked in front of the "humanoid shield".
"Pioneer junior member, Tu Ran, welcome home." The mechanical voice welcomed it emotionlessly.
Tu Ran stood quietly, waiting for the next question.
The "humanoid shield" held an electronic screen in her hand, and on it was the question she had set up before leaving:
What are my wishes?
Tu Ran said easily: "Alive, plus rich." ”
“”
A green check mark is displayed on the screen, and she has passed the identity verification level.
"That's right, respected pioneer Tu Ran, at ten o'clock this morning, a meeting will start in Conference Room 721 of the Administration Building, please attend on time."
"Have a great day."
Tu Ran glanced down at the time, it was seven o'clock in the morning federal time.
There are still three hours to go.
She still has plenty of time to clean herself up.
Tu Ran left the glass cover and went to the administration building first.
She had to return the gear she had on her.
Walking on the road, Tu Ran called out zero.
"Dear Pioneer Tu Ran, it's a pleasure to hear your voice again, a lot has happened in the Federation recently, is there anything you want to know?"
"Where is the pioneer Xi Chunzhi?"
"She's in the medical department."
"Medical Department? She's hurt? Tu Ran turned around and walked towards the medical department.
The place where the threshold gate is located is not far from the medical department.
"Yes, she fainted after coming out of the threshold last time, and the research institute learned through the analysis of her holographic bracelet that she was suddenly attacked by four roe deer owls when the threshold door was opened, and escaped after a fierce struggle, and she has been in a coma until now, all vital signs are stable, but there is no sign of waking up."
In the time when he was not speaking, Tu Ran had already stepped into the door of the medical department.
"What ward is she in?" Tu Ran asked.
"Ward 828, Building C, Inpatient Department."
Tu Ran went straight to the inpatient department.
The inpatient unit in Building C used to be a monitoring point and isolation point for survivors of the Q4245 suspension tramway.
More than half a month ago, this place was still filled with the smell of death, the sound of gunfire, the continuous transportation of corpses, and the smoke of the crematorium burned the place of death for three consecutive days.
Now, there are people coming and going, there are elderly people who move slowly, children running around, and patients who are in wheelchairs and wearing hospital gowns.
There are nurses running back and forth, doctors walking like the wind, nurses, cleaning staff, and so on.
Although it is not a very festive atmosphere, it is also a lively atmosphere.
It's a world away from half a month ago.
Tu Ran walked through the crowd, found Building C, waited for the elevator in the elevator room, and went up to the eighth floor.
The entire floor of the eighth floor was quiet, and there was no one in the bright corridor.
Tu Ran walked towards Ward 808.
Pushing open the door, I saw Xi Chunzhi lying on the hospital bed.
Her eyes were closed, her hair was draped, covered with a pure white quilt, and the sunlight outside the window sprinkled on her face, a peaceful and beautiful one.
It was as if she was just asleep.
Tu Ran approached softly, standing beside her bedside, looking down at her face.
Her face was pale, her eyelids were bruised, and her once aggressive red lips were now bloodless.
"Who are you?" A voice suddenly came from behind him, and Tu Ran looked back to see that it was a doctor in the white uniform of the medical department.
"I'm her friend."
"Oh, you're Tu Ran?" He glanced at Tu Ran's outfit and saw a name tag with the word "Tu Ran" written on it in front of her clothes.
"Yes, I am."
"You need to pay for her last three days," the doctor beckoned, and a nurse came out from behind him, holding an electronic screen in her hand, and the doctor's hand swiped a few times on it, "Her card balance has been deducted, and now she owes the medical department 12,000 federal dollars." ”
He handed the screen to Tu Ran, who saw that it listed a breakdown of all expenses.
The cost of life-sustaining equipment is 1,000 federal dollars per day, the daily consumption of various drugs is 1,800 federal dollars, the hospitalization fee is 300 federal dollars per day, and the various service fees are 900 federal dollars per day.
Therefore, Xi Chunzhi will consume four thousand federal coins if he lies here for a day.
Nearly half a month's fees were deducted from Xi Chunzhi's account before, and the money in her account was deducted three days ago, and now she is in arrears for three days.
"Because the patient is a federal worker, all costs are discounted by six." The nurse added.
Six percent off is still so expensive, Xi Chunzhi saved a year's salary, and it was spent in the hospital after half a month.
Are ordinary people who are more ordinary than them even unable to afford to stay in the hospital?
"Of course, you and the patient are just friends, and federal law does not require you to pay the 12,000 federal dollars you owe, but you are the only person you can find out about the patient at this time."
"According to the rules of our medical department, the patient will stop treatment the day after the payment is in arrears, but after careful evaluation, we believe that there is a 90 percent chance that you will pay the patient's medical bills, so we take this risk and continue to treat the patient until you return from the threshold."
"Of course, if you choose to refuse to pay, you will not be held legally responsible, but we will immediately stop treating the patient." The doctor said calmly.
Tu Ran quietly listened to his words and looked at Xi Chunzhi on the bed.
The group of people in the medical department had already inquired about her relationship with Xi Chunzhi clearly, they knew that she had a good relationship with Xi Chunzhi, and knew that she would not watch Xi Chunzhi stop treatment, so they had been waiting for her to come out of the threshold.
