At nearly half past seven in the evening, in the soundproof operating room, the radioactive particle rod puncture implantation operation for patients with skull base tumors began.

After about half an hour, the surgery was completed.

After another hour of observation, the patient showed no abnormalities, and Yu Zhiming left the operating room.

At nine :20 p.m., Yu Zhiming, who had packed up, walked out of the Zhizhen Building with Zhou Mo.

The two walked silently for a minute or two, and Zhou Mo asked softly, "Doctor Yu, can you ask why you didn't agree to the Chu family's invitation?" ”

Yu Zhiming replied: "I didn't refuse, but I didn't agree to Mr. Chu's request for cooperation." ”

After a pause, he explained: "The Chu family's family genetic disease, which is passed on from female to male, is obviously a genetic disease caused by genetic mutation. ”

"Genetic diseases mean they are hard to cure."

"If we want to fundamentally solve the problem, we can only correct or make up for it from the genetic level, which requires advanced knowledge in the fields of biological sciences, clinical medicine, biomedicine and engineering, not to mention doctoral degrees, and it is estimated that postdoctoral fellows are not qualified."

"These are areas that are far beyond my knowledge. Whether or not I join will not contribute much to the advancement of their research project. ”

"Of course......"

Yu Zhiming said slowly: "If they want to test the therapeutic effect of a certain drug and explore the development of the body's condition, I can still play a big role." ”

"So, I promised the Chu family, if you have similar needs, you can come here to find me at any time."

Zhou Mo sighed lightly, and sighed softly: "The women of the Chu family will not live to be fifty years old, and it is sympathetic to think about it." ”

Yu Zhiming snorted and said, "I also sympathize, but I know my own ability and can't help too much." ”

He paused for a moment, looked like he had a sudden realization, and said: "The research of rare diseases similar to genetic diseases requires a high amount of capital investment. ”

"The Chu family is short of money."

Zhou Mo asked suspiciously: "The Chu family has such a well-known hospital, as well as pharmaceutical companies and other industries, will they be short of money?" ”

Yu Zhiming explained: "Zhou Mo, do you know how much money is invested in researching a drug for rare diseases? ”

"According to analytical data, the average R&D cost is 1.2 billion."

"At present, only 5% of the more than 7,000 rare diseases in the world have cures."

"The vast majority of rare diseases are not willing to be developed because of the small number of patients and the high cost of drug development."

Yu Zhiming sighed: "The Chu family wants to develop their own genetic disease specific drugs with their own efforts, and the investment is not an exaggeration to say that it is a bottomless pit. ”

Zhou Mo sighed and said, "In other words, Doctor Yu, you cut off the Chu family's financial resources." ”

Yu Zhiming glanced at her and defended himself: "I'm just one person, how many patients can I treat in a day?" How could it be compared to a big hospital. ”

"Besides, no matter how short the Chu family is of money, they can't catch one person and make a lot of effort, and other people's money is not blown by the wind."

Zhou Mo nodded his little head and said, "That's the same, I asked for tens of millions of treatment fees, and it was indeed over." ”

"If you want to make more money, you should be like Dr. Yu, you should see more patients, see a hundred people a day, even if one person receives 100,000 yuan, it will earn 10 million a day."

Yu Zhiming said with displeasure: "I'm still humming, I'm not a pig, is there such a description......

A few minutes later, the two came to the underground parking lot under the office complex.

Now parked in Yu Zhiming's exclusive parking space is a BMW MINI, which is Zhou Mo's car.

When the lime was delivered at noon, it was opened.

Yu Zhiming stretched out his hand to open the passenger door, and was about to get into the car, but was stopped by Zhou Mo.

"Hey, Dr. Yu, you're in the back seat."

Yu Zhiming rolled his eyelids and said, "Your car is so small, the back seat is uncomfortable." ”

Zhou Mo insisted: "Oh, the back seat is relatively safe. Dr. Yu, safety is paramount. ”

For the sake of safety, Yu Zhiming endured it, and it took some effort to stuff himself into the back seat of the car.

After Zhou Mo drove the car out of the hospital, he chattered again: "Doctor Yu, today I also bought some self-defense weapons on the Internet, such as sapper shovels, throwing sticks, and strong flashlights. ”

"It's a job need, and you're going to be reimbursed."

Yu Zhiming couldn't help but say happily: "Zhou Mo, why are you more careful and nervous than me?" ”

Zhou Mo snorted: "No way, who asked me to be responsible for your safety?" ”

"There's only one way for the villain to hurt you, and that's to step over my corpse."

Yu Zhiming smiled, and felt that this was a very serious topic and should not be laughed at.

He said with a serious face: "Zhou Mo, if you really encounter a dangerous situation, don't be stupid, and put your own safety first." ”

"For most bad people, I am more valuable and useful alive than dead."

Zhou Mo asked, "What if...... What if the bad guys just want your life? ”

Yu Zhiming groaned and said: "Then it depends on the situation, if the bad guys are too strong, I will attract firepower, and you can run quickly." ”

"It's better to die one than two."

Zhou Mo roared excitedly: "Doctor Yu, just based on your words, I will definitely not let you die in front of me." ”

Yu Zhiming cut lightly and said, "What you said is as if we are in a war zone......"

The two of them dragged back and forth, time flew all the way, and returned to the Junshan Mansion community at ten o'clock in the evening.

When Yu Zhiming returned home, he unexpectedly found that in addition to Lime, there was one more person who came to greet him.

Lime's cousin, Feng Sisi.

Since being sentenced to two years of probation for physically assaulting a female classmate, she has been kept behind closed doors.

Yu Zhiming and Lime's engagement banquet, she also did not attend.

"Good evening, cousin-in-law!" Feng Sisi, who was wearing pajamas, looked well-behaved and greeted politely.

Yu Zhiming nodded, and asked directly: "Suddenly come here, is there something wrong?" ”

Feng Sisi took the initiative to reach out and take Yu Zhiming's briefcase, and explained softly: "My mother saw that I didn't go out of the door all day, and I didn't step out of the second door, so she asked me to come out to string relatives, afraid that I had been bored at home and had psychological problems." ”

Lime hung up Yu Zhiming's coat, took over, and said, "In addition to her coming to visit the door, I also want you to have a physical examination, she is going to donate bone marrow." ”

"Donating bone marrow?" Yu Zhiming looked at Feng Sisi.

Feng Sisi made a bitter face and said, "Cousin-in-law, I'm not on probation, so I just wanted to show more and signed up for bone marrow donation volunteers." ”

"Doesn't that mean the odds of a match are low?"

"I've only signed up for more than a month, and I was notified that I was matched with a person."

She asked worriedly, "Cousin-in-law, is this bone marrow donation really harmless to the body?" ”

Yu Zhiming replied: "This bone marrow donation, theoretically speaking, is not harmful to the donor itself. ”

"However, because there will be some differences in each person's physique, donors will have different symptoms after donation, and there may be some uncomfortable symptoms, such as fatigue, hair loss, and decreased immunity."

"Do you want to lose your hair?"

Feng Sisi touched his short black hair, and asked nervously, "Cousin-in-law, is it serious?" ”

Yu Zhiming explained: "It's just possible to lose hair, and even if it loses hair, it won't be very serious." ”

"These symptoms generally rest for about half a year, and they will return to before, so you don't need to worry too much."

Feng Sisi nodded, but there was still some worry on his face.

Yu Zhiming said in his heart, fortunately, the bone marrow donation method has been improved, if it is still the same as before, it will definitely scare this guy away.

In the past, there was only one way to donate bone marrow, which was to give the volunteer a general anesthesia, and then perform punctures in multiple parts of the volunteer's iliac bone, and then extract the bone marrow fluid from it.

The process of puncture and extraction of bone marrow is painful for the donor.

Nowadays, the method of donating bone marrow has improved significantly.

Volunteers were first injected with granulocyte colony-stimulating factor to mobilize hematopoietic stem cells from the bone marrow into the peripheral blood.

When the hematopoietic stem cells in the peripheral blood reach a certain number, the hematopoietic stem cells can be separated through the blood cell separator, and then the hematopoietic stem cells can be transfused into the patient.

This process is almost painless for the donor......

Yu Zhiming went to the bathroom to wash up a little, and then had supper in the restaurant with Lime and Feng Sisi.

Aunt Qiu Lan prepared a supper for them with crab roe noodles and four exquisite side dishes.

Feng Sisi said to Ai Ai: "Cousin-in-law, in fact, I have always been afraid of injections and blood draws, and I am a little afraid of ......"

Lime interrupted: "Sisi, you signed up as a volunteer for performance, but now that you are in shape, someone needs your bone marrow to save your life, but you retreated." ”

"What does that make your probation officer think of you?"

"This time, no matter how scared you are, you have to donate with joy."

"Maybe I can get a commutation of my sentence."

Feng Sisi said timidly: "Cousin, I actually know that at this time, you can't retreat, you can only bite the bullet." ”

"I'm just talking in front of my family......"

After supper, Yu Zhiming did a physical examination of Feng Sisi on the sofa in the living room.

Feng Sisi's body is quite healthy, but Yu Zhiming accidentally detected a strange object in her appendix.

The object was two peanuts in size, and it was stuck in the appendix.

The appendix is a pocket-shaped, blind-ended organ with a vestigial section of bowel inside.

The narrowing and obstruction of the appendix make it difficult for the residue that enters the appendix cavity to drain naturally.

Over time, appendiceal fecal stones form, which can become infected if left unattended, causing appendicitis.

However, judging from the smooth and regular outline of this foreign body, Yu Zhiming looked more like a foreign body than a dung stone.

Foreign bodies are trapped in the appendix and are quite rare......
