The special syringe needle brought by the Women’s and Children’s Hospital for the fetus fell on the small arm that stretched out from the womb.
Although the person holding the syringe was little boss Zheng from the ambulance, chief Wang’s heart still tightened.
Boss Zheng did not hold the child’s arm first to block and expand the vein flow like he usually did with acupuncture. He took the syringe, and without any hesitation, he pierced the child’s skin with the needle, which was so thin that it would break if he deviated slightly from the right angle.
Uh … Don’t I need to look?
Chief Wang was stunned for a moment.
Then, he saw boss Zheng slowly draw back the blood. Chief Wang felt that his eyes were a little blurry. Before he saw the blood return, boss Zheng had already started to inject the medicine.
The speed at which he injected the medicine was not fast, but chief Wang could tell from the strength he used that the needle was not under the skin, nor was it in the muscle layer. Instead, it was inserted into the vein of the child without any blood.
Was his standard that high? Chief Wang sighed a little.
Then, Zheng Ren passed the syringe to Xie Yiren and carefully placed the fetus ‘hand back into the womb.
Chief Wang used a pair of forceps to take out the entire fetus. The assistant carefully held the internal organs that were wrapped in a translucent membrane and placed the fetus on the Thermo-controlled bed.
The umbilical cord was 30 cm in length and could not be tightened too much. Otherwise, the blood supply of the fetus would be affected. Hence, the space for Zheng Ren’s surgery was extremely small.
Zheng Ren took over the child and washed the membrane gently with warm saline water and Xun-type anerid. He was very careful not to damage the membrane.
The child was in a state of no breathing, without the support of the umbilical cord and placenta. It looked very strange to take it out of the body without breathing, and to perform the surgery.
An ECG monitor was built. The sterilized, specially made membrane would turn the newborn’s vital signs into numbers and display them on the screen of the monitor through a wire.
Zheng Ren placed his hand on the translucent sac of the child and moved it slightly and gently.
Through the abdominal gloves, Zheng Ren could feel the sterile touch of the fetus. It was the same as in the operating theater of the system, and he immediately had confidence.
Xie Yiren handed Zheng Ren a specially-made, sterilized saline bag. Zheng Ren sutured the saline bag and the membrane around the abdominal wall to form a sac.
There were six needles. Every time chief Wang saw the thin needle passing through the SAC, his heart would tremble.
The suturing looked simple, but in fact, every stitch required a lot of skill.
Not only did they have to maintain a considerable amount of tension, but they also had to take care of the elasticity of the translucent sac membrane. The difficulty of suturing it was not any lower than the previous injection of anesthetics that hit the nail on the head.
However, little boss Zheng’s hands did not tremble at all, and he did not hesitate at all. It was as if he was performing an ordinary suture.
The congenital umbilical cord swelling was completed with a perfect interrupted suture. There were six standard stitches, and everything looked so smooth.
It seemed like a long time had passed, but it also seemed like only a moment. After the suture was completed, chief Wang saw boss Zheng start to tighten the pocket and also take in the contents of the abdominal cavity.
His strength was even and gentle, and the huge expanded organ was slowly pulled back into the abdominal cavity. Zheng Ren did not look at his hands. His eyes were fixed on the number on the monitor.
The small liver was still in the abdominal cavity, and Zheng Ren could vaguely feel the force of the liver touching the diaphragm.
The force that was transmitted to him was very weak. As he gently returned the force, Zheng Ren could feel the child’s diaphragm moving up slightly.
The heart rate on the ECG monitor was slightly higher, and the breathing rate was zero. Zheng Ren could not accept these values even now.
This was how surgery with a placenta worked, and he had to accept it even if he did not want to.
“Boss Zheng, it’s almost time.” Chief Wang was on tenterhooks as he watched, so he reminded him in a low voice.
Zheng Ren’s lips were tightly pursed under the sterile mask, and no one could see the curve of his lips.
He did not say anything. He continued to exert force gently with his hands, and the detached organ returned to the abdominal cavity little by little.
With more tissue reduction, abdominal pressure increased, diaphragm muscles lifted, and heart rate increased.
Zheng Ren stared at the surgery completion rate given by the system in front of him. This was not the first time he used the surgery completion rate to judge the progress of the surgery, but this was the first time he completely relied on the surgery completion rate given by the system to make a judgment.
This was because he had tried many times in the system’s operating theater, and the completion rate given by the system was the most powerful standard to judge.

Chief Wang started sweating again.
The constant temperature of 28 degrees Celsius in the operating theater seemed to have risen to more than 30 degrees Celsius. Heat waves were rolling under the Sterile Surgical Gown. As he passed through the isolation Suit that was drenched in sweat, chief Wang felt like he was in a sauna, and his whole body was covered in sweat.

88%……
90%……
Chief Wang looked at the gradually increasing heart rate of the newborn, and he became more and more afraid. If he were to perform the surgery himself, at this stage … Forget about now, the surgery would have ended twelve seconds ago.
The rest required the newborn to continuously adapt. The suture thread had to be tightened every two days to gradually return the organs.
Of course, the faster they received it, the better it was for the newborn. However, the risk was relatively high … Boss Zheng was being too impatient!
Chief Wang still wanted to persuade boss Zheng.
However, she looked around and saw that the doctors and nurses in Room 912 were doing what they were supposed to do. No one questioned boss Zheng’s operation.
“I’m wiping my sweat. ” Chief Wang turned her head, and the circulating nurse immediately used sterile gauze to wipe the sweat off her forehead and sideburns.
‘It’s really hard to perform surgery like a sauna. I must drink a bottle of 5% sugar water after I get off the stage,’chief Wang thought to himself. Only when he thought of this could he shift his attention away from boss Zheng ‘s’ dangerous ‘operation.
92%……
94%……
The surgery was getting more and more successful, and chief Wang’s heart sank deeper and deeper.
If it weren’t for boss Zheng’s perfect heart separation surgery, she would have stopped this risky behavior.
But even so, she could only endure for two more seconds.
“Boss Zheng …” Director Wang said hoarsely.
“Don’t worry, I’m here. ” Zheng Ren narrowed his eyes and stared at the ECG monitor. His heart rate was getting faster and faster, almost reaching its limit.
In Zheng Ren’s mind, he could feel the elevation of his diaphragm from the feedback of the suture.
Although his eyes were focused on the ECG monitor, Zheng Ren could not only see the numbers. There was also a three-dimensional anatomical image. The diaphragm was rising, and the chest pressure of the child was rising.
It had to be elevated. Otherwise, after birth, cardiopulmonary function would grow slowly under abnormal pressure, and the time of mechanical ventilator auxiliary breathing would be extended, leading to the child using mechanical ventilation to maintain life for a long time, which would cause more unpredictable consequences.

98%……
Zheng Ren seemed to be able to hear his own heartbeat. With the background music of ‘come of good luck’, the heartbeat and the newborn’s heartbeat were one. They had their own rhythms, but they were combined into one.
It was like a song, the sound of life.
100%……
Zheng Ren stopped and began the ligation. He said in a deep voice,””Cut the umbilical cord. The operation is over.”
