My Wives Are Too Overpowered

Chapter 23 First Manual Purchase

End of January, 2031.

New York Medical College's hospital.

"Alexander! Rush to the ER, there's a need for staff!" A nurse ran towards Alex and said hurriedly.

In this time he was here for internship, Alex had proven to the staff that he was really knowledgeable and knew his way around things, unlike the newbie third-years.

It was all thanks to his vast experience from the past life that Alex could portray such abilities.

Alex was treated like a staff by the nurses due to this and since there seemed to be no one in the hospital currently, the nurse's first reaction was to get his help.

Alex didn't question and straightaway went to the wash basin near the ER.

He lathered his hands with soap and ensured to properly clean them as quickly as he could.

The nurse with him helped him dry the water off his hands and had him put on surgical gloves, mask, and cap.

Once fully ready, Alex went inside to see what the situation was.

"HUFF! HUFF! HUFF!" A woman was shaking intensely and gasping for air while having an oxygen mask on her face.

Even a layman knew this shouldn't happen and so did the nurses, which was the cause of their panic.

There were no doctors around to attend to this patient and even the general surgeon was busy in the OR.

There were undergrad interns in the hospital but the nurses knew they were as useless in this situation as one could be, making them opt for Alexander, who was one of the brilliant minds out there.

Alex looked at the computer screen at the side that displayed the patient's vitals. They weren't looking good by any means as she seemed to be having arrhythmia.

What was worse was the fact that her gasping for air despite being given oxygen meant something was wrong with either her body's Autonomic Nervous System or her medulla oblongata's respiratory center.

Alex didn't specialize in cardiology, but had enough knowledge about things due to his bachelor's program that taught about all aspects of the human body.

The arrhythmia wasn't good, however, it wasn't as severe as this lady's body failing to take proper involuntary actions.

Alex immediately instructed the nurses in a calm yet hurried tone, "this is a code blue, get the things ready."

"Understood." A nurse said and left.

"Prepare a shot of Vanzax and Dunvoflavin*." Alex said without looking at any nurse and went forwards to tend to the patient.

A nurse got to work and prepared the shots.

Alex cleaned up the patient's arm and once the shot was ready, injected the solution into her.

In a matter of seconds, the patient had calmed down considerably despite the arrhythmia still happening and the lungs failing to properly function.

Alex instructed the nurses to call for an anesthesiologist and after doing some preparation, was ready to get to action as soon as the patient was under anesthesia.

While the anesthesiologist arrived, Alex closed his eyes and called for the shop in his system.

He remembered there being a book on anatomy and wanted to see what it offered.

'There it is,' thought Alex. 'System, does the Advanced Human Anatomy book contain the in-depth information of the respiratory rhythm centers in the brainstem?'

[Answering Host…]

Alex clicked his tongue. 'Purchase.'

[Ding!]

[Advanced Human Anatomy purchased successfully!]

'Open the medulla oblongata's section containing…'

As Alex instructed in his mind, information related to the medulla oblongata poured into his mind.

He learnt the fine details of the neurons responsible and as more information kept flooding in, Alex's expression turned from that of a shock to utter disbelief.

The knowledge was so profound!

He couldn't believe that this wasn't advanced anatomy, this was a bloody answer to all mysteries!

Science hadn't advanced this much and Alex was sure it wouldn't for at least the coming three or more decades.

But this book…

Alex shook his head and pulled himself out of his stupor.

Now was not the time to fanboy over knowledge. He had a patient to look after.

The anesthesiologist arrived in the ER in a minute and the patient was given anesthesia.

ραndαsnοvεl.cοm As the patient went numb, Alex, equipped with new knowledge, decided to give this person the best treatment possible.

"Get the cranial drill ready, we're about to perform a surg—"

"WHAT THE HELL IS HAPPENING HERE!?" A middle-aged man in scrubs and proper surgical equipment stormed inside and shouted.

"Doctor Richard!" The nurses exclaimed and went quiet.

Richard looked at the things happening in the ER and his attention was quickly drawn to Alex as he stood out the most.

Standing in front of him, he asked with visible anger, "What. Is. A… Bloody Intern DOING HERE!?"

Alex didn't respond and stood quietly, staring at Doctor Richard in the eyes.

"ANSWER ME!" Richard shouted again.

If both the two didn't have their masks on, Alex was bound to get sprayed by Richard's spit with the way he had just shouted.

Alex sighed. He knew Richard's nature fully well and during his med school years, this man had given him a really tough time.

Alex was given an earful by this guy a lot many times and it wouldn't be wrong to say that his temper was as short as an intern's lunch break.

Instead of answering Richard first, Alex looked around and said, "I'd like to have a chat with Doctor Richard alone for a minute. If you guys may please…"

"NO! SPEAK WHATEVER YOU WANT HERE!" Richard lashed out, completely pissed off by the audacity of Alex.

How dare he not answer him and instead command the staff as if he was an authority here!?

Richard was the authority, he was the senior doctor, not the fucking two day's intern in front of him!

Alex sighed again. Richard really didn't understand things, did he?

"It would've been better for you if we were alone, but I guess, there's no choice. Time is running low, the patient needs immediate help."

"WHAT THE F—"

SLAP!

…..

*Vanzax and Dunvoflavin are made up names. If there's some medicine with such a name, it is purely coincidental.

A/N: No real name of any medicine will be used in the novel, for obvious reasons.

Everything is fictional, including all the scenes, methods used, and so on.

So if it seems that something isn't making sense, it really is the case, and was never meant to make sense because some of you madlads might go in the real life and try to imitate it.

Always remember, even if things seem like they make sense and in some cases, if it even is correct, don't imitate it and seek immediate help from a medical professional.

Take good care of your health and consult a doctor if you may seem to have any symptoms mentioned in the novel or in general aren't feeling well.

There won't be more such warnings ahead as I believe my point is conveyed.

Stay happy. Stay healthy.

Much love,
