At Gang Jinman's sudden nausea, Dowook reflexively fumbled at the wall where the tools were organized and took out a plastic bag.
"Here. Throw up here.”
When Kang Jinman, who received the bag, vomited, Lim Jae-baek beca surprised. Another patient with the sa symptoms. In this case, it was not an individual digestive tract disease.
"Wh-what kind of liquor did you drink besides soju?"
"Manbyeongcho…ugh."
The other companion, Woo Yong-sik, who had been fine, began to vomit. Dowook, who put a bag in Woo Yong-sik's hand, asked Lim Jae-baek to do sothing.
"Doctor, you take care of the person at the end. Let's change positions."
"What? Yes…"
Dowook pushed the window connected to the driver's seat open.
"Team leader! It's not just one patient. It's three!"
At this cry, Han Min-gyu moved his eyes to the rear mirror.
"Three?"
"I think it's Manbyeongcho addiction, that is the cause. All three of them ate that."
Vrooom!
Han Min-gyu, who heard the report, accelerated the car further.
In the anti, Kang Jin-man, who Lim Jae-baek was holding, drooped as if losing consciousness.
"Low oxygen shock!"
Dowook took a breathing mask from the first aid kit and threw it.
Lim Jae-baek, who received it, imdiately placed the mask on the patient's face. After connecting the mask, the tube connected to the oxygen tank, he opened the valve and asked Dowook.
"You said they're all addicted to plants, right? Do we have atropine here?"
"There's none."
"Damn. We need to put all of them on IVs."
The speeding car fluctuated greatly.
Lim Jae-baek, who pierced countless veins because the needle to be inserted into the patient's arm kept shaking, could not easily secure the line.
"Dowook, ask the team leader to drive slowly…….”
"Change seats. Hold this pack."
Lim Jae-baek, who turned his head, saw Dowook laying the patient down on the ambulance floor to make him more comfortable after already securing an infusion line, and his eyes grew bigger.
"Hurry up!"
At Dowook's powerful cry, Lim Jae-baek flinched and hurried to move. Lim Jae-baek, holding the infusion pack after treatnt, sat in the corner and watched Dowook.
Leaning the patient against the back door, he raised the patient's left arm, and poked it with the needle. As soon as he recognized that he failed, he took it out and tried again. The vein line was caught.
Lim Jae-baek seed to know to so extent by looking at the situation, why Professor Min Eung-sik asked to move up the plan.
That was not a delicate service for custors visiting the hospital, but a critical service for patients who needed paradics.
Two unexpected patients, a dical personnel who responded effectively in that cramped and shaking ss, and a doctor at that, one would have to believe it if they said they were the team leader.
Dowook, who boldly finished taking action, turned his head.
"This could be a case of acute addiction, so you have to contact the ergency room in advance. This is going to Hansung Hospital."
"Is your specialization paradic…….”
"What?"
"It's nothing."
Lim Jae-baek quickly picked up his cell phone and called a colleague working in the ergency room.
"Yes, it's . There are three patients, and we suspect poisonous herb addiction. Do you know Manbyeongcho? Oh, the Azalea family? So, it ans Grayanotoxin. Anyway, one patient seems to need gastrointestinal cleaning."

Seodaemun Fire Station, 12:30.
Team 1's ambulance which finished the dispatch entered the garage.
As soon as the back door opened, Min Eung-sik, who was waiting, grabbed his nose at the sll of vomit.
"Ugh, what is this?"
Min Eung-sik, who saw Lim Jae-baek, who was half out of it, asked why with a look.
"An accident in the middle…"….”
Lim Jae-baek couldn't continue to talk and was nauseated by the scent of vomit.
Dowook, who had been with him, asked as he ca down.
"It's lunch ti. Anyone who wants cup noodles in the lounge?"
"I'm fine."
Lim Jae-baek's tone was out of energy. Choi Young-je, who approached from the passenger seat, shook his head as if he had no appetite.
"Dr. Dowook. Add water to mine. I'll clean this up and go up."
Lee Ji-seok's cheerful voice. Han Min-gyu also got off the driver's seat and nodded to Dowook.
"Then three including . What about Professor Min?
"I don't have any thoughts either."
Min Eung-sik, who roughly realized the situation during the dispatch, asked quietly as Dowook disappeared.
"What do you think?"
"It's true. There's sothing unique about that friend. His mindset when responding to the situation is different. If this continues, the team leaders may not rember Hansung Hospital."
"If you understand, do it right away."
The boiling pot's switch stopped.
He saw Seong Chang Soo entering the lounge while he was pouring water into the ripped cup ran container one by one. He bowed his head as if he hadn't seen him because he felt Chang Soo's need for gossip, but Seong Chang Soo already approached in an instant.
"Paradic Park Dowook. Did the dispatch go safely?"
"Roughly."
"Oh, ran. I'm going to eat, too. Do you have water left?
"There's none left."
"It's sloshing around though."
Dowook cautioned Seong Chang Soo, who sat next to him with a container of cup noodles.
"The crew will co up soon, so be careful with that mouth."
"I'm soone else who will receive a staff award at the ergency room next year for my outstanding talk.”
"The chief is really generous. I can't believe he accepted even though you should be disqualified.”
"That's funny."
While waiting for the cup noodles to cook properly, Seong Chang Soo slowly turned on his motor mouth.
"I almost went crazy when I was transferring patients from the fifth floor earlier. It's an old apartnt, so there's no elevator. I took him to the ergency room with a lot of difficulty, but he was walking soundly when we got there. Are you kidding ?"
"You didn't give a proper diagnosis at the beginning. You should have told him to walk down."
"How can I insist when the caller screams that he's in pain as soon as we arrive? I can't even take X-rays."
"The professors from Hansung Hospital seem to achieve it as soon as they look though?"
At this, Seong Chang Soo looked around and lowered his head.
"How was it? Do you think your team leader likes only them?"
"I don't know about that. Like you said this morning. It's Chief Ji's style. I took care of all the work and didn't say much.”
"I hope you keep doing that. Going on dispatch, there wasn't much I could do as a doctor. It's not completely treatable out on the field either. If it's internal dicine, there's a lot to say. There's a resident from internal dicine in Group B with …….”
Whi-ing~
The command amplifier on the wall rang once. Almost all of the people sitting in the lounge stopped talking and eating montarily as they turned their heads.
The team that was ordered to go had to run out.
While dozens of people were quiet, the broadcast ca out.
-We'd like to inform all doctors in the room. From 2 p.m., a free clinic will be opened at the nearby Yeonhui-dong Community Center. There will also be a treatnt room that can treat mild patients, so if you feel that the patient's condition is light between dispatch, please transfer them here.
Since it was not an order to dispatch, everyone returned to their original actions, but Seong Chang Soo opened his eyes wide.
"What does that an? Free dical treatnt?"
"It must be part of the event. The community center is across the street.”
"Sothing slls fishy. Really fishy."
Lee Ji-seok, who finished organizing the ambulance, arrived at the lounge.
"Dr Dowook."
"What about Team Leader?"
"He went to the control room for a while because there was a change in the group.”
"Change of group mbers?"”
Lee Ji-seok, sitting next to Dowook, lightly greeted Seong Chang Soo and replied.
"Two people are applying for the free clinic. Hansung Hospital provided special cooperation for the dical equipnt. Many of the patients are often mild, so this will save a lot of effort when they return after being transferred to the free clinic. I'd be so happy to work with such great help every week."
"See,see. Dowook. I told you it slls fishy.”
Seong Chang Soo's expression suddenly darkened. Lee Ji-seok sniffed his clothes and looked sorry.
"I'm sorry. I guess it got on my clothes when I cleaned up."
Dowook shook his head towards Lee Ji-seok saying that it was not the reason and asked Seong Chang Soo.
"Will I lose my call exemption?"
"That's not important right now!"
Sacheon Bridge Intersection, 1:45 p.m.
In the ambulance on their way back from dispatch, Dowook took out his vibrating phone and checked it.
[I didn't know Hansung Hospital would co out like that. Can I visit you for a bit? I have sothing to check.]
It was Lim So Yool's text. Dowook sent a reply that he was free around 3 o'clock when the first shift ended.
‘All the mbers seem to be grateful to Hansung Hospital. There's no way out of this.’
While contemplating, he saw the LED light of the walkie-talkie shining.
-Bzzzzzzz.
-Ergency team 1, please respond.
He answered right away, holding the radio in his hand.
"This is team 1."
-Baek-il Studio Apartnt Room 503. Patient with shortness of breath. Requesting Team 1 to dispatch.
"Team leader, it's a dispatch order."
Squeak! Weewoo weewoo!
Han Min-gyu imdiately changed the direction of the ambulance.
Consecutive dispatch while returning.
While the vehicle was shaking due to the rapid cornering, Dowook put the walkie-talkie closer to his mouth and contacted the center.
"HQ. Tell us the details."
-The caller has a history of asthma. After coughing symptoms, breathing difficulties gradually got worse. Bronchodilator administered, but no response. Trouble talking on the phone.
As soon as Dowook heard the information, he opened the divider.
"A patient with difficulty breathing. Please prepare intubation tools."
"Yes, doctor."
Lee Ji-seok nodded and opened the equipnt box on the wall.
Han Min-gyu gave a smiling gaze to Dowook, who closed the divider again and settled down.
"Now you're doing well by yourself."
"I guess I'm getting used to it as I keep doing it."
While waiting for the other cars to make way on a road packed with cars, Han Min-gyu spoke with a cautious tone.
"I want to let Jiseok rest at night because he has been working continuously since yesterday. I'm sorry to say this to the person who ca as a volunteer, but can you act as the main team mber during the second shift?"
"Two days in a row? That's going to kill you. It doesn't matter to . I'm here to help the crew."
The ambulance accelerated again as the lane gave way.
Dowook grabbed the handle of the glass window and peeked at Han Min-gyu.
An unexpected request.
In order to defend the call exemption right, it was right to help with this. Like asking him to say good things about Myeong Sae Hospital to the higher-ups.
However, he couldn't say anything hastily because of what he felt as he worked while borrowing Han Min-gyu's sense.
For exemplary team leaders who valued principles, it was only right to respect those principles.
There must be a different solution since the smart Lim So Yool was coming.
At 3 p.m., the first shift change between the workers took place.
Group C, which was waiting, at the seat of Group A. Group A moved to a waiting position to provide support only in special accident situations that required recruitnt.
"Great job, doctor."
"You as well."
Dowook, who greeted Lee Ji-seok, looked around, wondering if Lim So Yool had co. His cell phone rang just then so he took it out.
-I'm inside the main building. Where are you?
"Then I'll go there…….”
Dowook, who was about to enter the building, stepped back when he found Seong Chang Soo talking at the entrance with his juniors. There was no need to let that chatterbox know that Lim So Yool had co.
"……No, co to the front. I'll be there soon."
He left the garage and went around the building.
"Director."
Lim So Yool, who was looking at the fire station, turned to him at his call. Upon eting his eyes, she approached him with a light smile.
"I didn't expect you to participate in this event."
"Because it's aningful."
In many ways.
Standing close, Lim So Yool looked up at Dowook.
"I guess that's the outfit of a volunteer. Even if it's not a doctor's gown, you have that aura."
"The director also wore a casual outfit…….”
Lim So Yool wore a neatly buttoned coat with a scarf and fur hat. It was a style that looked bright and cute like a student.
However, the expression "cute" was not a good word to say as a greeting.
"You look good in it."
"Really? Even if it's a little chilly, I don't like it because Secretary Ok keeps forcing to dress like this, but if Dr. Park says it’s okay, then it's fine."
Dowook smiled inside at Secretary Ok's firm intention to take care of her as expected.
It was the outfit that parents would choose when sending out their daughter, who was ignorant about the world. In particular, that white fur hat covered up to the ears was the highlight.
After greeting each other like that, Dowook imdiately asked.
"What are you here to check?"
"Doctor."
"What?"
Her expression beca more serious when she gave an unexpected answer.
"The only thing Hansung Hospital's free clinic can do for patients is making a primary diagnosis. But Dr. Park is different. The diagnosis that the patient can be much more satisfied with is possible. So…."
Lim So Yool suddenly bowed her head and asked in a low voice.
"Do you want to calculate together?"
The pompom on the fur hat moved together along her shy head.
