University Doctor and His Fragile Patients-Chapter 314 - 258: Arguing with a Bird in a Tree, Full-Body Fractures! (Part 2)

Chapter 314: Chapter 258: Arguing with a Bird in a Tree, Full-Body Fractures! (Part 2)

Instinctively, I took a sharp intake of breath.

Sweat dripped from my temple.

The boy spoke, somewhat aggrieved: "Technically speaking, it wasn’t a tree, but the bird on the tree."

Chen Mu fell into a memory.

It seemed...

If he remembered correctly, there indeed used to be a bird’s nest on that tree.

No, wait.

Where’s the bird’s nest?

Chen Mu looked at the bare tree, utterly bewildered.

"Dr. Chen, is this what you’re looking for?"

Su Bingbing, who had just returned from making a call, pointed helplessly at the bird’s nest overturned on the ground.

From their vantage point, they could see some egg residue beneath the nest.

Not only that.

There was also a bird circling frantically above their heads, chirping emotionally.

Chen Mu hadn’t understood earlier why the bird lingered there.

But now he knew.

It was probably cursing!

Clearly.

This idiot climbed the tree, not only demolishing the bird’s house but crushing its unborn offspring as well...

Chen Mu looked speechlessly at the boy. "Did you climb the tree to steal bird eggs?"

The words "steal bird eggs."

Those words really angered the boy.

For no apparent reason,

His tone grew more agitated as he spoke.

Word by word.

Full of suppressed grievance: "Climbing trees to steal bird eggs! Dr. Chen, I am, after all, a student of Hai City University. Do you think Hai City University students are childish?"

Chen Mu: "..."

—

"Don’t Hai City University students have any self-awareness?"

"Dr. Chen is too polite to say it; let me tell you, you guys really are childish!"

"To be fair, I don’t think Dr. Chen’s guess was malicious. Climbing trees to steal bird eggs fits the naive university student stereotype perfectly!"

"But he looks really aggrieved! Maybe he really didn’t climb up for the bird eggs?!"

"Isn’t the most aggrieved one the bird above his head? It’s the first time I’ve heard a bird cursing its heart out..."

"If someone risked so much to wreck your place, you might curse worse than the ’bird’..."

"... "

—

Tears glistened in the boy’s eyes.

Whether from pain or grievance, it was unclear.

"Dr. Chen, you really have to believe me."

"It was really the ’bird’ that started it. I originally just came to the campus clinic to watch the fun."

Chen Mu’s face darkened instantly, "You have ulterior motives, young man!"

The boy complained, "Dr. Chen, look closely, don’t you think there are a lot of boys lingering around the campus clinic?"

Chen Mu looked up, confused.

To his surprise, he saw quite a few boys indeed loitering near the clinic.

Meeting Chen Mu’s gaze.

They all instinctively avoided eye contact with him.

Trying hard to look in other directions, pretending to just be passing by the clinic.

Chen Mu: "..."

He looked speechlessly at the patient. "Do you know why they hang around the campus clinic?"

The boy said, "Of course I know, because we have the same purpose!"

"Ever since Dr. Chen’s first day of live streaming, mentioning traditional Chinese medicine can help with menstrual cramps, many girls have come to the campus clinic to queue for treatment."

Chen Mu nodded, "I know that, but what does it have to do with you guys..."

Halfway through the sentence.

As a fellow man.

Chen Mu suddenly understood what the "idlers" lounging around the campus stadium were up to.

A silent exasperation rose in his heart.

The boys lingering here are mostly the single guys from Hai City University.

They hang out here hoping to meet girls in need of comfort, and maybe, after a few encounters, they might find themselves a girlfriend.

The bird circling above them.

Was still calling out emotionally.

Chen Mu looked up.

Pointing at the cursing bird above his head, he asked, "So, what’s the grudge between you two?"

Tears glistened in the boy’s eyes, "I was just cooling down under the tree, and then this damn bird! It pooped on my head!"

Listening to the boy’s words.

Chen Mu glanced at the boy’s head and indeed saw a clump of white, sticky bird poop.

His lips twitched, marveling, "That’s... quite accurate..."

The boy was visibly upset, "Dr. Chen, after all, our Hai City University is a university, right!"

"I really didn’t expect that under the edification of books, there could still be such an uncivil bird, pooping everywhere!"

Chen Mu: "..."

What kind of logic is that.

Could it be that the school wants to catch all the birds near the school?

And give them some proper training?

Maybe a moral and ethics lesson?

What on earth are these fragile university students thinking?!

Day after day.

Where do they get all these bizarre ideas?

Taking a deep breath.

Chen Mu repeatedly reminded himself deep down that he was dealing with a severely injured patient.

He couldn’t lose his temper with a patient.

After changing a Silver Needle, Chen Mu continued to ask, "So you climbed the tree and took down the bird’s nest?"

The boy complained, "How could that be, Dr. Chen? I’m a sophisticated university student!"

"Even though it pooped all over my head, I couldn’t do something so cruel as destroy its entire family!"

Chen Mu couldn’t figure it out, "Then why did you climb the tree?!"

The boy said confidently, "I thought it was an uncivilized bird, so I went up to give it a moral education lesson!"

"Hoping that it would listen to me and become a high-quality bird in the future."

Su Bingbing added, "To put it bluntly, he was just angry and climbed up to argue with the bird."

The boy replied, "Well, you could say that too..."

Chen Mu: "..."

—

Dr. Chen: I think Hai City University also needs a psychologist.

Going up to argue with a bird, how did Hai City University gather so many ’geniuses’ together?

Maybe? Good feng shui?

Hahahaha!!! Great feng shui, even the Taoist priests don’t dare to come here, and you’re telling me it has great feng shui, that’s hilarious! Hahaha!!!

My wife knows how to sum things up.

Bird: Where did Hai City University get so many lunatics from? My kids are gone!

This bird isn’t wronged, who’s asking it to poop everywhere first?

Bird: No way! Are you guys insane? What bird doesn’t poop everywhere?

...

—

As the boy continued speaking.

He also felt a bit guilty, "Actually, after calming down, I realized my actions might be dangerous, that the branch probably couldn’t hold my weight."

Chen Mu frowned, "Then why didn’t you come down?"

The boy was on the verge of tears, "Dr. Chen, I didn’t expect it. When I climbed up, I was so agile!"

"But when I wanted to come down, as soon as I moved a little, the branch started shaking like crazy, and I didn’t dare to move recklessly."

Chen Mu: "..."

If only he’d known earlier.

Why did he even start?

The events after that.

Dind’t need the boy to continue sharing, Chen Mu could guess roughly what happened.

The tree was on the side of the school hospital, but in this direction.

Usually, only couples would walk here at night; during the day, there were basically no people.

He probably waited for a long time.

Finally encountered He Xingchen, although he called for help immediately.

But it was a bit too late after all.

No ladder arrived.

The person fell down first.

Suddenly.

Chen Mu heard some noise.

Looking in the direction of the sound, he saw a few people in white coats pushing a movable hospital bed towards them.

Seeing the bed.

Chen Mu couldn’t help but frown, "I remember I asked He Xingchen to find a stretcher, why are you pushing a bed here?"

The group looked a bit embarrassed.

Finally, one of the bolder ones spoke up, "Dr. Chen, here’s what happened..."

"All the stretchers in the school hospital have been used."

"We just saw there were no new patients, so we sent them all for disinfection, which means the disinfection isn’t finished yet..."

Chen Mu was speechless, "Who said a stretcher can’t be used when it’s still disinfecting?"

"You could have just laid a medical sheet on it, isolating the patient from the stretcher, right?!"

Seeing the few people in white coats suddenly understand.

Chen Mu felt even more exhausted...

"The patient has multiple fractures, directly moving him onto the bed will worsen his injuries considerably."

"The best way to handle this now is to place a stretcher beneath him when moving the patient."

Noticing the few people in white coats still standing in front of him.

For each sentence he said, they nodded once.

Getting a bit more irritated, Chen Mu raised his voice, "Understood? Why are you still standing here dumbfounded?!"

"Go back quickly and get a disposable medical sheet immediately! Why is communicating with you such an effort!"

Watching the few people in white coats flinch because of his yelling.

Then they turned and ran.

Chen Mu sighed again, being a school doctor is exhausting...

Mentoring other doctors’ students, even more so...
