Upon hearing Lin Jie's question, Ye Hongqing asked hopefully, "Brother Lin, do you have a solution?"

Ever since Lin Jie entered the room, Qin Gang, who had been wearing a stiff expression without much emotion, also showed a slight change in demeanor, unconsciously clenching his knees.

Ye Hongqing let out a long breath and said, "Qin Gang's current situation is like having a ticking time bomb in his belly, afraid to jump or run, and even afraid to…with a girl…"

At the last moment, Ye Hongqing saw Lin Miao sitting on the side, swallowed the last word "fuck" back into his mouth, slapped his thick thigh, and shouted, "This kind of life is really too repressive."

"Brother Lin, according to Qin Gang, when he was in the military hospital, several surgical experts were invited to consult for him on the orders of military leaders. The conclusion was that the risk of surgically removing the bullet was too great, so they could only maintain the status quo."

"After returning to Binhai, I took him to the University Affiliated Hospital, Donghua Hospital, Tongren, and Liming among other major hospitals. The answer everywhere was the same."

Lin Jie naturally understood why so many surgeons had arrived at the same conclusion.

Because the liver is extremely rich in blood flow, accounting for about a quarter of the cardiac output, with a blood flow of one thousand to twelve hundred milliliters entering the liver every minute, removing the bullet that blocks the opening might cause massive liver bleeding, leading to patient death.

Seeing the hopeful eyes of Ye Hongqing and Qin Gang, Lin Jie pondered for a while and said, "There is a way, but it's risky."

"What way?"

Ye Hongqing's belly trembled with excitement, "When you're down, you could choke on cold water, anything can be dangerous. Brother Lin, tell us the solution. As long as it's feasible, we're not afraid of danger, really not afraid."

After saying this, he glared at Qin Gang and shouted, "Kid, hurry up and show your position now!"

Qin Gang's throat moved, and he hesitantly said, "Lin…"

He didn't know for a moment how to address Lin Jie.

If he followed Ye Hongqing's way of addressing, he would have to call him Uncle Lin, but this Uncle Lin seemed too young, not even sure if he's past twenty?

Ye Hongqing was furious and slapped his thigh again, shouting, "Call him Uncle Lin, will it kill you? A swaddled grandfather, a white-bearded grandson, such situations are not rare in our country."

Sitting on the side, Lin Miao couldn't help it, covering her mouth and giggling.

Lin Jie also smiled, hurriedly saying to Qin Gang, "If you really call me uncle, I would feel all sorts of uncomfortable. Just call me Lin Jie or Dr. Lin!"

Qin Gang's face rarely turned red, and he said a bit embarrassedly, "Dr. Lin, I'm not afraid of dying. If I were afraid, I would have died in various missions already. Living such a cautious life right now is really suffocating me."

"Please, Dr. Lin, please tell us your solution!"

Lin Jie considered for a moment and said, "You all surely know about orthotopic liver transplantation, right?"

Ye Hongqing was taken aback, then hesitated a bit and said, "Of course, naturally, I know about it!"

"Replacing a liver is indeed a feasible method. But I've heard that liver donors are very scarce, and the five-year survival rate for liver transplants is quite low!"

Lin Jie smiled and said, "It's naturally not about transplanting someone else's liver!"

"My method is to remove Qin Gang's liver, extract the bullet, then repair the liver damage caused by the bullet. Afterward, the repaired liver will be transplanted back."

Ye Hongqing's eyes became round as saucers. He slapped his big belly, shouting, "Brother Lin, truly, you are an unparalleled medical genius!"

"This method, really… it's fantastically feasible as hell. Even as an outsider, I feel this method is highly feasible!"

"Brother Lin, you are truly formidable. I am completely awed…"

Lin Jie raised his hand to stop Ye Hongqing's flattering, saying seriously, "This method, I'm sure, the doctors treating Qin Gang must have thought of it. The main reason they didn't propose it is that this method also carries significant risks."

With Lin Jie's reminder, Ye Hongqing also calmed down.

The doctors he took Qin Gang to see at various major hospitals were not incompetent; they were famous surgical experts. If this method had a really high success rate, they couldn't fail to think of it.

Ye Hongqing stabilized his mind, asking, "Brother Lin, what are the main risks of this method?"

"The first risk is the time factor!"

Lin Jie explained softly, "The liver's role in the human body is irreplaceable. In other words, the body's tolerance for liver deficiency is extremely poor."

"Put it this way, the liver is both the largest digestive gland in the body and the center of metabolism within the body, an essential organ for maintaining life activities."

"If a person's entire liver is removed, irreversible damage to the body will occur approximately eight hours later."

"Meanwhile, an orthotopic liver transplant operation requires four to six hours, leaving only two to four hours to repair liver damage. Given the liver's exceedingly rich capillaries, the task of repairing damage is extensive, and completing it within this timeframe is a huge challenge."

After explaining this risk, Lin Jie continued, "The second risk is it's a one-way ticket, without a second chance. The repair of liver damage cannot have any issues."

"This is a considerable test of the doctor's experience and surgical skills, not any doctor can perform this surgery casually."

Ye Hongqing understood this time, saying in a deep voice, "Something all these expert doctors find helpless, if this method was simple, it wouldn't make sense."

"Brother Lin, can you specifically say how successful your method might be?"

This question left Lin Jie in a dilemma for a moment.

This method, he conceptualized based on his own capabilities.

He feels that with his skills, in the right team cooperation, there's at least a seventy to eighty percent chance of successfully carrying out this surgical idea.

If someone else were to perform it...

Honestly, Lin Jie internally desires to perform this operation, feeling excitement and an irresistible urge to take action. However, his relationship with Ye Hongqing hasn't reached that closeness.

Lin Jie thought for a moment and said, "Boss Ye, you can probably see that the success rate of this surgical plan is dependent on the lead surgeon's abilities, so I cannot give you a precise answer."

Ye Hongqing stayed silent for a while, suddenly smiling broadly, "Brother Lin, just assume, I'm just saying suppose…"

"If a doctor, whose abilities are comparable to that mysterious doctor who performed the brain tumor surgery on Brother An, were to do it, what would the success rate be?"

Lin Jie squinted and stared at Ye Hongqing.

He wasn't sure how much Ye Hongqing knew about him, but he guessed it was probably quite a lot.

At the recruitment assessment site, after Hu Yitong's disclosure and his own heart transplant surgery demonstration, Lin Jie knew many bold speculations were made about him, though unsaid.

Ye Hongqing smiled and said, "Brother Lin, I know you have concerns."

"I…"

He patted his chest, loudly declaring, "Ye Hongqing has been around for over thirty years. You can inquire, I only allow others to wrong me first, I never wrong anyone first."

"Qin Gang's father protected me early on, though unwell, he passed away early. I treat him like my own son. Brother Lin, please help me!"

As he said this, Ye Hongqing swiftly stood up, intending to kneel before Lin Jie…

Lin Jie hurried forward to assist, somewhat flustered!

However, Ye Hongqing's bulk was quite substantial, and Lin Jie couldn't hold him up…

"Sixty to seventy percent success rate!" Lin Jie hurriedly said!
