Chapter 33 Section 33

When Thursday came, Yuki took Soichiro Shimabara to visit the intensive care unit. Shimabara stepped into the room lined with complex machines, looked around for a week and then muttered to himself: "I will be brought here." "As Professor Nishizono explained to you yesterday, after the operation, Mr. Shimabara fell asleep due to the anesthesia. When you wake up, you should be here. Before the operation, please have a look at it. Then it won’t feel weird.” "Well, that's right. When I wake up and find that I am in a completely unfamiliar place, I am really shocked, and there is no one around me."

"At that time, I or other doctors will be there, and nurses." "Oh, is it? There are no patients now, so the doctor is not here." "yes." "Is this usually the case?" Shimabara asked looking at the entire row of hospital beds.There is no one in the hospital bed now. "The current situation is rare, and it is the first time I have encountered it. There is always an operation in progress." "How did it become like this now?" Shimahara said in disbelief. "This is because……" Seeing Yuki's unspeakable appearance, Shimabara suddenly realized and nodded, with an expression of understanding on his face. "Because other patients ran away, be afraid of that intimidating incident."

"Not only for this reason, the hospital's current practice is to postpone all operations that can be postponed as much as possible before the whole thing comes to light." "It's not because of the threatening letter." The corner of Shimabara's mouth rose. "Damn stupid. Must be a hoax." "I hope so." "I'm also the leader of the organization, so I know that the more successful an organization is, the easier it is to become the target of the rats. That is to say, those people can't do much, at most they just send threatening letters to prank, anyway Just don’t want to see others! I am incompetent, so I am jealous of those successful people, and want to create some commotion to satisfy myself. The police don’t have to take it seriously at all, just ignore them.”

Xi Ji noticed that his tone was a little resentful, so he asked, "Has a similar incident happened in Mr. Shimabara's company?" Shimabara shrunk her double chin. "It happened, it happened all day long. I think you also know that not long ago, there were defective products in the products launched by our company. At that time, everything was sent, including threatening letters and slander letters. If everything is serious, There is no need to do business.” "Are those all pranks?" "Yes! It is true that it was our negligence to launch defective products, so we are also responsible for compensation to the victims. Simply put, a settlement has been reached with the parties involved. But those who come to trouble are not at all The victims are all opportunistic bad guys who want to take advantage of the opportunity to get a vote. The best evidence is that no matter if it is a threatening letter or a defamatory letter, if no one cares about it, they will not send it again, it is the same."

Seeing Shimabara's haughty expression, Yuki remembered what Nanao told her. "Are those threatening letters targeting the company as a whole?" "Huh? What do you mean?" "For example. . . . were there any threats to attack individuals?" "Of course there is. Especially for that matter, the responsibility is very clear, like the factory director, the head of the manufacturing department. There are many personal attacks against them. However, they also resigned to show responsibility, and they are required to do this and that , that would be too much."

"Excuse me, what about you, President?" "Huh?" Shimabara, with a straight face, became even more displeased. "How am I?" "The president didn't receive anything like a threatening letter?" Shimabara let out an oh, looking uneasy. "Yes, what did you say that I should be responsible for the mistakes of my subordinates. Only a simple-minded person can think of such a thing. It is very simple to think, but according to this logic, the company cannot operate at all. The company is like a movie. For a large machine, it is certain that parts must be replaced if they are faulty, but if even the non-faulty parts have to be replaced, I don’t know how much time and effort it will take before the machine can operate normally again. I know whether the previous function is still there. The company is on the verge of collapse due to the problem of defective products. If even the leader is replaced, the employees will be uneasy. It is true that it is easy for me to resign, and I am happy to relax, but I judge that this is not good for the company. There is no benefit, knowing that I will be scolded, I still decided to continue to work. Those guys who don’t understand anything will only talk irresponsibly, how can I control so much.”

Shimabara vomited like a grievance in his heart. Halfway through the speech, the topic seemed to change to his dissatisfaction with the media's attack on him for refusing to step down. He seemed to have noticed it too, looked at Xi Ji, and lowered his head in embarrassment. "Oh, but it's no use complaining to the resident..." "It's really hard to be a leader." "If you want to be successful, you must be mentally prepared. In short, the hospital must do a good job. Don't get confused when you receive a threatening letter. How can you teach patients how to operate with confidence."

"I'll pass it on to the higher ups." Regardless of other things, Shimabara's words are correct.Physicians and nurses are flustered, which only increases the anxiety of patients who are about to undergo surgery. On the other hand, Nanao's words also made her care.If Nanao's conjecture is correct, then the reason for the intimidation of this hospital is the president in front of him.No, intimidation is just a cover-up, and the prisoner may have other plans. In short, tomorrow's operation must be completed smoothly, Xi Ji thought to himself.In this way, at least the life of Soichiro Shimabara will be saved first.

But, can the current self face the heavy responsibility of performing a large aneurysm operation?Xi Ji felt strangely uneasy.Another thing Nanao told her has been lingering in her mind. The middle school student who escaped Kensuke's pursuit and died in a car accident was indeed Xiyuan's son.After knowing this, Xi Ji was not fully sure whether he could face Xiyuan's knife with a calm mood.Did Nishizono do his best when Kensuke underwent surgery?Did he really want the operation to succeed? "Where should we go next?" Shimabara asked, probably because of Yuki's silence.

"Ah..., please go to the anesthesiology department. The anesthesiologist will explain it to you, and I will lead the way." While walking through the automatic door of the ICU, Xi Ji thought, she must concentrate, there are still a lot of things to prepare for tomorrow's operation, there is no time for her to be confused, and there is no place for her to escape.
