When the Doctor Uses A Hack

Chapter 185: Chapter 186: Hidden Profession (Extra for the Last Man on Earth.)

After Chen Cang googled it, he breathed a sigh of relief. No wonder he had never heard of it-it was far behind Harvard. It seemed it wasn’t due to his own limited experience but rather the school’s lack of fame.

Hmm, the medical school’s global ranking isn’t that strong either, just a mere

top 10.

There’s nothing particularly remarkable about the school either, just a tiny Nobel Committee that’s not busy most of the time, only responsible for the evaluation and awarding of the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine each year.

Chen Cang felt sour…

You, just a mere doctoral student from the Karolinska Institute!

What are you doing in Dongyang Province?

Is this the place you should come to?

Only then did Chen Cang take a look at the name, Meng Xi.

Didn’t expect her to be all that remarkable either? I thought your surname would be Dongfang, Ximen, Nangong, Ouyang, or something­

in terms of looks… about on par with Qin Yue’s little bootlicker, I suppose.

But definitely not as formidable as Qin Yue, who carried with him a “Skill Book” that everyone feared. Thinking of this, Chen Cang couldn’t help but touch his forehead, feeling somewhat scared in retrospect.

However, Chen Cang was stunned after seeing Meng Xi’s profile!

This woman… pretty impressive, oh…

A doctoral degree in cardiac surgery?

As for academic achievements…

emmm…

Just a few papers in The Lancet, New England Journal of Medicine…

Chen Cang casually closed the magazine, slammed the table, and said, “She’s the one!”

Good enough, let’s settle for this!

Chen Cang felt he couldn’t be too picky. Although the mentor was a bit young, it wasn’t unacceptable.

At this moment, Guan Wei came back.

Seeing Chen Cang sitting there, he asked with a smile, “How’s it going? Found someone you’re interested in? If you have, I can help you ask around.

Chen Cang nodded, “This… Teacher Guan, 1 think Teacher Meng Xi is not bad.

She’s 30 years old, Karolinska Institute Ph.D., and her strongest point is scientific research, particularly in the field of cardiac surgery. It seems pretty suitable.”

Guan Wei was also taken aback for a moment, then awkwardly smiled, “Little

Meng, huh?”

“Meng Xi is quite capable. She just returned to the country last year, and initially she didn’t plan to take on any students, but the school encouraged her to mentor one, given her excellent qualifications. She has a strong ability in scientific research; after coming to the hospital affiliated with the school, she secured a national natural science foundation project for the hospital in the same year!”

“She even published a top-tier SCI paper on The Lancet this year. So, it seems her research ability is quite strong, but… her clinical skills are average, at least that’s the hospital’s evaluation.”

“Meng Xi is definitely a potential talent with great prospects, and there are many who follow her. There are also quite a few well-connected people who have approached her, but… it seems she is not very impressed by them.”

“A couple of days ago, she called me, saying that if she can’t find the right one, she might as well recruit next year. It seems… she’s not very keen on taking students.”

(Ding! You have triggered a hidden task: Apprentice under Meng Xi. Successful apprenticeship allows for a career change to a special hidden occupation. 1

Chen Cang was stunned!

Holy shit?

A hidden task?

A hidden occupation?

Isn’t this the main character’s typical setup?

After Guan Wei finished speaking, he sat down opposite Chen Cang, “Actually, I wouldn’t recommend you apply for Meng Xi. It’s her first time mentoring, so she definitely lacks experience. Moreover… when you chose a young teacher, one downside is that the teacher is still in the ascending phase of their career. They won’t pay much attention to students, unlike senior mentors who have reached their peak and focus mainly on cultivating students.”

“So, you applying for Meng Xi is not as good as applying for your hospital’s Tao Zi. Director Tao is also highly competent, and having had a few interactions with him, I can say he’s a good person and is affiliated with the provincial second hospital. It would be easier for you two to communicate.”

Chen Cang sighed, “I don’t want to apply, but… I really can’t give up this hidden task in my hands!”

And this hidden occupation?

How special can it be?

Can’t possibly change my job to Ultraman, right!

But why do I still feel a bit of anticipation?

Moreover, after pondering for a while, Chen Cang realized his main purpose of apprenticing wasn’t necessarily to learn clinical skills, after all, he had the system. As long as he got his job transfer certification, once he opened the Skill Book, what skill couldn’t he grasp with ease?

However, he felt research was his Achilles’ heel.

With Dr. Meng Xi being strong in this area, Chen Cang believed his main objective in doing postgraduate studies was to learn research. Compared to that, he also felt that if he applied with Meng Xi, it would probably be the correct choice.

Thinking of how the protagonists in novels instantly change jobs to become dual masters of magic and martial arts, proficient in both.

Could his special job perhaps be a triple mastery of internal and external medicine, and research? Skilled in internal medicine, even more skilled in surgery, and the ultimate in research?

With that thought, Chen Cang felt a glimmer of possibility.

He felt that not striving for it would simply be unforgivable, knowing that Dr. Meng Xi had come all the way from the Karolinska Institute in Stockholm, Sweden to Anyang just to set up this hidden mission for him!

With this in mind, Chen Cang smiled and said, “Mr. Guan, 1 want to give it a try. How should I get there?”

Guan Wei looked surprised, then smiled and gave Chen Cang a thumbs-up!

“Kid, impressive. Alright, let me make a phone call to see when would be a good time. I’ll make a call first.”

After saying that, Guan Wei picked up the phone and dialed directly.

The phone rang for a long time with no answer.

Guan Wei smiled awkwardly, “He might be in the restroom…”

Chen Cang nodded.

After a while, Guan Wei called again.

Still no answer…

“He might be in surgery…”

Around five in the afternoon, Guan Wei’s face turned red, “I’ll try another call.”

After saying that, he called again.

This time, the call went through.

“Hello, Director Guan, I’ve just finished a surgery.”

The voice carried a hint of fatigue and laziness.

Guan Wei breathed a sigh of relief, feeling his face restored, “Hmm, no problem, Director Meng, you’ve worked hard.”

“Is there something you need, Director Guan?”

Guan Wei nodded, “Hmm… It’s like this, Director Meng, school is about to start, right? Do you have any suitable student candidates?”

Meng Xi was silent for a moment, “Not at the moment. If 1 don’t have anyone by the first, I might as well cancel my slot. Sorry to trouble you, Director Guan.” Guan Wei smiled, “No trouble at all, Director Meng, what if I recommend a student? He has three years of emergency medicine experience and very good clinical skills. What do you think about meeting him sometime?”

Meng Xi hesitated for a moment, “Have him come to my office on Monday morning. I’ll meet with him and see. Is it a boy or a girl?”

Guan Wei, “It’s a guy, a young man, quite capable!”

Meng Xi seemed relieved upon hearing this.

“Hmm, that’s settled then, Director Guan. I have other matters to attend to.”

With that, the call was ended.

Guan Wei smiled and said to Chen Cang, “Go to the first hospital of Dong University’s Cardiac Surgery Department this Monday and meet with Director Meng!”

Chen Cang nodded, the phone was close enough, and he heard everything clearly…

But why did the person only agree after Guan Wei said ‘the young man is quite capable’? Could there be a special significance to this?

ps: A postgraduate student is akin to a research monk; supervisors favor boys for their practicality and capability, for they do more work and aren’t afraid of getting tired.

Seven updates for today, I will organize the outline this afternoon, thank you-
