Code 999: Heart Surgeon under Fire Chapter 8
Carl confessed to everything shortly after being brought in.Leveraging his authority as director, he bypassed the dual-authorization and dual-lock protocol for controlled pharmaceuticals. He submitted fraudulent requisitions for anesthetics under my name, smuggling them through underground channels to private clinics.Those drugs ultimately flowed into unaccredited cosmetic surgery centers and pain clinics, where their price was marked up by more than tenfold.The consumables list Sally brought was indeed stolen from the pharmacy. However, Carl himself was the one who made her stumble upon the accounting discrepancy. He had calculated her zealous sense of justice perfectly. He left a trail on purpose, banking on the fact that she'd spearhead the investigation.His original plan was to get her to expose me in public. Once the narrative took hold, he'd step in as the hospital director to play the righteous hero.That way, he could eliminate me—a cardiothoracic surgery head who po

My voice wasn't loud, but every single word was clear.Everyone's eyes converged on that thin slip of paper.Greg's expression tightened. He immediately instructed his colleague to pull up my historical signature records for an on-the-spot comparison.Meanwhile, Carl broke into a cold sweat.He finally found his voice amidst the horror: "Absolute nonsense! Ella, you're openly defaming the hospital board! Trying to shift the blame based on a groundless signing habit is ridiculous!""You know better than me if it's ridiculous. Across the entire hospital, who else could so easily bypass me to requisition controlled anesthetics in bulk using my name? No one aside from you, a former surgeon promoted to director."You've probably forgotten that when you personally guided me through my very first surgery. You even pointed out my signature with a laugh. You said my final stroke was too heavy, lacking the flair of your upward flick."These words completely broke him.Sally finally sense

"We need you to cooperate with our investigation right now."The sheer pain in my arm left me with no desire to waste a single breath. "I don't have time. My arm needs treatment," I said calmly."Once it's treated, we'll be taking you to the station," Greg replied, taking a clear evidence bag from his colleague behind him and showing it to me."We've already conducted a preliminary search of the cardiothoracic surgery department's drug storage. Out of the 60 vials of anesthesia recorded for March, only 55 empty vials are accounted for."The remaining five are missing without a trace. And most importantly…" he paused, flipping the evidence bag over to reveal a drug request slip carefully sealed inside.On that slip, right beside the serial numbers for those five vials of anesthesia, was the same fluid signature.I knew that signature all too well. I had signed it countless times over the past 16 years.Greg continued, "...every single one of those requisition records bears your p

My voice was flat, without a single ripple of emotion."Don't force it with your fingertips. It'll make the guidewire wobble. Use your wrist. Imagine it's already through the narrowed section. It'll find its own way."On the other side of the glass, Gareth took a deep breath and looked at the monitor again.Under his control, the guidewire probed cautiously toward the almost entirely blocked anterior descending artery.The entire surgical team held their breath."Good. Just like that. Hold it steady," I said, encouraging him softly. My eyes never left the data on the monitor."Blood pressure is starting to drop. Anesthesiologist, start a dopamine infusion. You can pick up the speed a little. We don't have much time to waste."Perhaps the rushing worked. Gareth's movements grew significantly more decisive.Everything was heading in the best possible direction.Outside the observation room, Carl tried to read something from my expression.But he was destined to be disappointed.

Carl's face paled in an instant.He knew the difficulty of this surgery more than anyone. In the entire department of cardiothoracic surgery, no one could take the lead except for me.He practically stumbled as he rushed over to stand beside me. He looked fixedly at my right hand. It was hanging down limply, and twisting at a horrifying, unnatural angle. His lips trembled, yet he couldn't utter a single word.He knew better than anyone what a cardiothoracic surgeon's right hand truly represented.It wasn't just a hand; it was the lifeline for countless patients.And now, that lifeline had been shattered by his beloved granddaughter, using a stainless-steel chair with her own hands."What do we do… What on earth do we do now…" he stammered.Everyone stood frozen in place like statues.Their gazes darted back and forth between my deformed right arm and the tightly shut doors of the operating room.They might not have understood medicine, but they understood the situation clear

"I came forward today because I refuse to sit by while you people turn this hospital into a profit machine, treating defenseless patients as lambs to the slaughter! I'm going to strip away your hypocritical masks on behalf of every single patient kept in the dark!"The moment those words dropped, shock swept through the entire hall.Even Gareth stood frozen in disbelief.The attitudes of the waiting patients and their families shifted completely.The mere fact that the director's own granddaughter was turning on the hospital staff for the patients sealed the deal. It proved beyond a doubt that the hospital was rotting from the inside out.A few agitated family members even began pushing forward. Their bodies formed a human wall that completely blocked my final few steps to the operating room."She's the director's daughter! No wonder she has the guts to speak up!" one of them said."We can't let this corrupt doctor go in there to destroy the evidence!"Sally's earth-shattering
