Doctor’s Rebirth

Chapter 10.2

Chapter 10.2

CONTINUATION…

‘This… I need to restrain myself.’

Despite the dire circumstances, his experience from assisting surgeries in other departments shone through.

The lung tissue (pulmonary Alveoli) was different from other visceral tissues. With such extensive damage, there was no way to save the patient, even with modern medicine.

Taking a deep breath, Jin Cheon-hee attempted to suture the incision after the excision.

Of course, he didn’t have the proper tools, so it wasn’t an ideal treatment, but he couldn’t just leave it alone.

If left as it was, the patient would certainly die within an hour.

Baek Rin Eui-seon watched Jin Cheon-hee with sparkling eyes, but he couldn’t perceive that.

‘How long had he been performing the surgery?’

In the end, he finished the second patient and continued to perform surgeries on the other patients.

Somewhere along the way, Woon Ji-sang’s appointed representatives came to witness the scene, and a woman wearing a court official’s uniform observed from the side.

With everyone watching, Jin Cheon-hee continued the surgeries.

However…

In the end, two out of seven patients died before the surgery even began. And out of the five critically ill patients who underwent surgery, two died before the day had passed.

***

After dealing with the assailants, The Cloud Dragon Escort Bureau quickly began to restore the original order.

They held funerals for the deceased, gathered the enemy’s corpses and set them on fire.

They repaired the damaged areas and continued to treat the patients.

Jin Cheon-hee was involved in this process as well.

He was the only one in this world with medical knowledge related to surgery.

Through this process, Jin Cheon-hee was able to experience the mysterious power of Gangho, which he had only read in the novel.

Everyone, except for those who died after undergoing surgery, began a remarkable recovery.

The speed of recovery in the surgical site far exceeded the norm.

The first words that came to Jin Cheons-hee’s mind upon seeing this was, ‘They survived.’

With only the resources of this era, they were able to survive.

It was all thanks to Qi, a power that couldn’t be explained by modern medicine, but Jin Cheon-hee was grateful for it.

After confirming their survival, Jin Cheon-hee collapsed and fell asleep.

Although the young boy’s body was healthier than his previous life’s body, his stamina wasn’t particularly strong.

And it was in this state that Jin Cheon-hee woke up to a voice.

“They were so stubborn. Even when they tried to make them talk, they kept their mouths shut and tried to commit suicide at every opportunity. Even the warriors were at their wit’s end.”

“Even though they had severed muscles all over their body?”

“They say they’ll speak when they bring in the expert from Haomun.”

“There’s a lot of speculation that they came to seek polite harmony…”

“There was nothing special among the confiscated items, so that’s likely.”

Jin Cheon-hee had entered one of the guest rooms of the bureau and fallen asleep.

Because he was too tired, he entered a random room near the building where the patients were.

He couldn’t remember exactly where this room was, but it seemed to be somewhere near the room where the servants worked.

“How long did I sleep for…?”

The boy, Jin Cheon-hee, tried to move his body, but it felt unusually heavy.

His arms and legs felt numb as if burdened with excessive fatigue.

Knowing that lying down for a while would make him feel better, he remained still. Once the blood circulation improved a bit, he would feel fine.

“I heard Gongson Hyeon from the main family came to visit.”

“It must be annoying for her to see her younger sister alive. But to avoid suspicion, she must visit.”

“By the way, you tell interesting stories.”

Jin Cheon-hee smiled bitterly as he listened to their conversation.

People didn’t know.

They didn’t know that Gongson Hyeon loves her younger sister more than anyone else.

Although she came with her face covered to hide her identity, rumors had quickly spread.

However, prejudice is truly terrifying.

People even thought that Gongson Hyeon’s love for her sister was just an act.

“Isn’t the antidote poisoned?”

“Oh, my lord. If something like poisoning happens here, everything will be overturned. Don’t you think the Black Ice Poison Dragon, the best poison expert in the world, knows that?”

While listening to the conversation between the male and female servants, Jin Cheon-hee thought.

The Poison Dragon.

That’s what people call her because her poison skills were not human.

In a samurai family, it was a disgrace for the Main family’s children not to excel in martial arts.

Although having a quick wit was a great talent, it made her look like an insignificant person. However, the word “dragon” was attached to her name because it carried a sense of fear.

“By the way, is ‘that’ child doing well?”

As his story was brought up, Jin Cheon-hee perked up his ears.

“They said he got a slight mark on his neck, but he’s fine. The kid he was with had a nightmare.”

Other things could be easily dismissed as excuses, but it was difficult to dodge around the mark left by that villain. So, he decided to tell the truth, leaving out the important parts.

It was true that the villain had choked him in a nightmare.

During the surgery, the sensation left on his neck bothered him. It was still a bit swollen.

“How difficult it must have been for him.”

“But I’m still upset. How could he do such a thing to that kind child? What he has done for our bureau…”

“Could it be that Jin Cheon-hee is just protecting that child without any reason? He is such a deep and gentle person…”

“Is that all? It seems even Baek Rin Eui-seon has acknowledged his medical skills.”

“If it weren’t for Jin Cheon-hee’s care, many would have died. How many heroes owe their lives to him…?”

“My older brother thought he would lose his arm, but he survived thanks to that child.”

“Hmm, he’s gaining more support.”

Jin Cheon-hee had saved the brother of the head of the bureau and one of the pillars of the Gongson family. He had also discovered the secret of the San Gong-Doku. Each of his actions was clever and likable, and as a result, all the officials in the bureau had began to turn to Jin Cheon-hee.

In just a few days, Jin Cheon-hee had gained considerable popularity within the The Cloud Dragon Escort Bureau.

“That’s right. Even Lord Woon Ji-sang brought an ointment for Jin Cheon-hee’s neck.”

“But Baek Rin Eui-seon had already applied it.”

“…That’s true.”

“He’s really lucky.”

“He is indeed.”

“He says he has nowhere to go, so it would be great if he stayed in our bureau.”

After they finished talking, Jin Cheon-hee could finally move his body as they left.
