Golden Time (JungYong) Chapter 141

Check-ups were done by the two doctors simultaneously.

s.h.i. n only took care of their check-ups while Suhyuk not only proceeded with the check-ups but also had them take an X-ray.

This ti he ca back to the room after he took an X-ray.

X-ray shots were hung on a small viewer, and Suhyuk looked at the neck part carefully.

The patient was there due to pain in his neck.

He supposed that the patients neck bone was bent, but it was not, fortunately.

With a smile, Suhyuk turned his eyes to the old man, saying,

What are you doing for a living, sir?

Well, farming on the field.

There were fields here and there on the island, though they were not large.

Are you working with your head down a lot? Yes, because I have to use a pickaxe.

Suhyuk shook his head.

The pain in his neck was one which ant he could not lift his head for a long ti.

If you look at this

Suhyuk pointed toward the X-ray shot.

You see the neck bone here is curved. If this gets straightened, you experience a neck disc.

Disc? Thats not good, right?

Suhyuk shook his head, replying,

If you dont want it, you have to stretch your body while working.

Then Suhyuk stood up, asking him to follow his stretching.

Suhyuk pulled the other side of his shoulder with his right hand. Then he turned his head to the left.

You have to loosen up your neck like this.

The old man nodded his head, following his actions.

Let give you so muscle injections.

Every ti a needle touched his neck, he made a slight frown.

He felt it much more stinging and stiffening than the shots he usually got on his a.s.s.

As I had shots administered, do you think my neck can get better?

Sure, very soon.

What about dication?

You dont have to take any. Just stretching will do.

During the morning Suhyuk saw patients without letup.

That was the sa situation for s.h.i. n and Choi.

Soon the morning pa.s.sed quickly, and lunch ti ca.

Now the clinic was empty because all the patients in the morning were gone after their check-ups.

Have lunch first!

At Chois voice outside the clinic, s.h.i. n and Suhyuk headed to the break area.

It was narrow.

Choi took out so side dishes from the refrigerator, and added her own food to the table.

s.h.i. n looked at Choi, narrowing his eyes.

Oh, a at side dish?

I made it yesterday.

You didnt do this before

Choi scooped rice in a bowl and gave it to him.

Please eat it.

Then she, looking at Suhyuk, served rice in a bowl and pressed it with even more.

Please eat a lot.

Oh, its too much

As lots of patients want to see you, you have to eat a lot for stamina!

At her smile, Suhyuk could not refuse it.

Three of them began eating like that in a rry mood.

The waves. .h.i.t the steep cliffs.

The foam scattered and produced a spectacular view.

There were so people throwing a fis.h.i. ng pole over it.

They were a couple who looked to be in their late 20s.

It looked like they were here for travel.

Honey, do you really know how to slice raw fish?

When the straight-haired lady nad Jinhee asked in a tw.a.n.ky voice, Lee Mujin holding the pole said with confidence, Sure. I heard that this is the spot that attracts lots of parrotfish. Wait a minute, honey.

Okay, then. I look forward to it!

Then Jinhees head turned to the side suddenly.

It was a road leading to the foot of the island.

Why isnt she coming yet? Im so thirsty.

The lady who ca here with her boyfriend and her friends went out to buy ran and bottled water, but she had not yet returned.

Jinhee asked her boyfriend, fanning herself with her hand,

Honey, do you know when she went down there? About 30 minutes ago? Looks like she will be late for her date

Then Mujin pulled hard on a fis.h.i. ng rod when he felt sothing heavy on his palm.

Hey, it looks like a big fish. Wait a mont. Let catch it right away.

At that mont his body beca fixed like a stone statue.

A lady could be seen falling into the sea, scattering her hair in the distance, as if she was falling from a cliff.

Jinhees screaming voice broke out.

Obviously it was Minji, her friend, falling into the sea, who went out to buy ran and bottled water.

Her brown hair and clothes all showed it was she.

Minji!

A mans voice coming from sowhere was echoing through the area.

Both of them hurriedly went down the hill.

In the anti Minji was floundering in the sea.

Her head was bobbing up and down in the sea repeatedly as if she could not swim.

Coming down to the seaside, Jinhee and Mujin were just at a loss, not knowing what to do.

Honey, just do sothing to save her!

At Jinhees pressing, Mujin hesitantly jumped into the sea.

Like soone who learnt swimming systemically, he swam his way toward her bravely.

It looked as if he could reach her quickly who was now floundering in the sea.

At that mont Minji, who was struggling to poke her face out of the water, went into the sea but did not co back up. Mujin swam even faster to get to her.

Arriving at the spot he saw her, he looked around and then subrged into the sea.

How long pa.s.sed?

Watching him anxiously, Jinhees eyes beca open wide, for her boyfriend ca out of the water.

And he ca out not alone, but also with Minji.

Hukk. Hukk.

Taking her out of the water, Mujin was letting out a rough breath.

Minji! Minji! Co to your senses!

Jinhee tapped her cheek, but she did not open her eyes.

Step aside, said Mujin.

He took his ear to her mouth. She was not breathing.

She isnt breathing!

Suddenly Mujin applied CPR, and pounded on her chest several tis.

It was typical CPR.

Though it was not professional, he kept on applying CPR.

But she showed no reaction.

Minji! Open your eyes!

Then another mans voice was heard. A man with a strong build who was her boyfriend, Yonggyu.

Brother, what happened?

At Jinhees crying voice Yonggyu ca up as if he was absent-minded.

Minji

Though Mujin kept applying CPR, she did not move one bit .

What happened?

At Jinhees screaming, Yonggyu made a blank expression.

She made a false step We need to take her to the hospital right now.

He tried to raise Minji who was unconscious, but Mujin stopped him, saying,

Hey, move back! We need to get her to breathe first!

Again CPR was applied.

At that mont.

Cough, cough!

Suddenly sea water ca out her mouth along with a cough, from her who had shown no reaction until a mont ago.

Co to your senses! Minji!

Mujin patted her on the shoulder lightly, but she still had no consciousness.

Fortunately, she was able to breathe.

Hey, carry her on your back!

At Mujins order, Yonggyu carried her on his back.

Carried on her boyfriends back, her body was drooping down.

***

As soon as the lunch ti was over, the people began gathering again at the clinic.

Suhyuk went back and forth to the X-ray room and injection room alternately.

When he was sorting out the patients files, he heard so noise outside.

Please save this woman!

Those waiting for their dical check-ups turned their eyes to the entrance.

Yonggyu was entering, with Minji on his back.

Choi at the reception desk approached him quickly, and so did s.h.i. n.

Suhyuk asked urgently, Was she hurt?

She fell from the cliff right into the sea.

This way.

Guiding them into the checkup room, he lay Minji on the bed.

Choi alternately looked at Suhyuk and the patient, while s.h.i. n was standing in the back.

s.h.i. n trusted Suhyuk who was now confirming the patients breath.

Mujin opened his mouth,

I applied CPR as she wasnt breathing.

Good job.

Suhyuk took out a penlight from the pocket in his gown and lifted her eyelids.

When the penlight illuminated her pupil, it shrunk visibly within no ti.

What is the patients na?

Jinhee answered, Park Minji.

Nodding his head slowly, Suhyuk cast a suspicious look.

Obviously she had consciousness.

Has the multiple shock ntality weakened?

No, because her reaction was too imdiate.

Her cheekbone was swelled up red.

Was she hurt while falling into the sea? That was impossible because she had no abrasion.

As she can get burnout, let inject a sap first.

Do you think she will be alright?

At Jinhees asking, Suhyuk nodded his head, saying,

I dont think she has a big problem, but

He looked at Mijin quietly, who was closing her eyes.

Let take all the possible tests for her.

He then pushed the bed into the X-ray room.

Guardians, please wait outside.

Suhyuk took a shot of her body very carefully from head to toe.

And he did not go out after the shot.

He checked the picture inside.

Fortunately her body was not hurt, except a fracture in her cheekbone.

Looking at the picture, he headed to her on the bed.

Turning off the viewer, he approached her and opened his mouth,

You have a fracture in your cheekbone.

If sobody had seen it, he might have misunderstood.

For he was talking to the unconscious patient.

But Suhyuk was full of confidence.

You must be feeling a lot of pain

Looking at her, he opened his mouth again,

Why are you still lying down?

At that mont her eyes opened silently.
