I became Hokage in Tokyo

Chapters 123-125 Morgue

"Shh-"

The bespectacled man seemed to notice Suzuki Maika's confusion, and with his other hand, he raised his index finger to his lips and smiled mysteriously.

Then he bent down and continued to perform CPR on the seriously injured person.

"Huff, huff—"

Under Naruto Uchiha's continuous, direct chest compressions, the seriously injured man's eyelids twitched, and he let out a soft groan.

Suzuki Maika quickly grasped the injured person's wrist and checked the pulse, finding that the injured person's heartbeat had returned.

Just then, an emergency siren suddenly sounded at the school gate, and an ambulance with a blinding red light flashing on its roof rushed into the school.

Naruto Uchiha nodded, swiftly pulled his hand out of the seriously injured man's chest cavity, and then wiped the wound with a cloth, healing it completely without any medicine.

There wasn't even a trace of stitches left. Apart from Suzuki Maika who had witnessed it herself, no one would believe that a manual chest opening had just been performed.

While stopping bleeding with bare hands is difficult from a clinical medical perspective, it is indeed possible. However, performing open-chest surgery with bare hands is unheard of; it's practically witchcraft.

"What just happened?"

Suzuki Maika could hardly believe her eyes, wondering if she had misread things in her panic. She wanted to grab the young doctor and ask him what was going on, but then she saw the paramedics, guided by the faculty and staff, rushing over with a stretcher.

"Here, here! This wounded soldier is in the most serious condition!"

The paramedics rushed over, opened the seriously injured person's eyelids, and quickly examined the wounds. They then said with some surprise:

"Heartbeat and breathing are normal. Although the blood loss is quite severe, there is no danger to his life. How did you stop the bleeding from such a serious wound that wasn't stitched?"

"It's stopping the bleeding with bare hands," Suzuki Maika said, sounding surprised and uncertain.

"How is this possible? Did you do it?"

"It wasn't me, it was a young doctor wearing round glasses. Where is he now?" Suzuki Maika looked around blankly.

In the brief chaos following the arrival of medical personnel, in a moment of distraction, the man suddenly vanished.

"Let's not talk about that now, we need to get him into the ambulance."

Medical personnel and several faculty members together put the injured people into the ambulance.

Suzuki Maika stood there, completely bewildered, when she saw a middle-aged faculty member who had been present earlier walk by. She quickly asked:

"Have you seen that young doctor with the round glasses, Chief Physician Fujiwara? Is he from our school, or a student's parent... a student's relative?"

Because Kabuto Yakushi looked too young, Maika Suzuki changed her mind halfway through her sentence.

"It was the first time I'd seen that face. We're so grateful to him this time, otherwise Ms. Asano would have been in danger. How could such a serious car accident happen at school..." a middle-aged faculty member sighed.

Although Suzuki Maika had many questions, she didn't even know the young doctor's name. Even if she told him that he had opened her chest with his bare hands and healed the wound, no one would believe her. In the end, she could only return to the health room dejectedly.

Meanwhile, Uchiha Naruto's shadow clone used the Transparent Release to become invisible and boarded the large ambulance from before.

The seriously injured driver was put into the vehicle and received emergency treatment from the onboard doctor.

Emergency personnel performed electrocardiogram, blood pressure, and blood oxygen monitoring on the seriously injured person, and immediately administered a blood transfusion, which was essential. They also began treating the abdominal wounds in the ambulance.

"A 15-centimeter open wound in the abdomen, with intestines exposed. Huh, such a serious injury. Judging from the blood in the abdominal cavity, it must have been an artery that was damaged. How was the massive bleeding stopped? It's truly unbelievable..."

The doctor in the ambulance was busy with his hands, but he kept marveling at what he saw.

"Do I still need to get nabatroxetine injections?"

"No need, just continue the blood transfusion. It's really strange, this is the first time I've seen such a tenacious patient."

The doctor in the ambulance glanced at the monitoring equipment, specifically the electrocardiogram, and the instruments showed that the injured person's condition was very stable.

However, just by looking at the open wound on the patient's abdomen, one could tell that the injury was no small matter. Based on his many years of experience in the emergency department, such an injured person must be sent to the resuscitation room for emergency treatment as soon as possible to have any chance of survival.

However, the injured person's condition was quite stable, and there was no longer any danger to his life, as if someone had already given him first aid.

Seeing that the injured person's face had regained some color, the doctor could only sigh that everyone's constitution is different.

[Proficiency +1]

Naruto Uchiha, who was in the ambulance, quietly withdrew his hand, ending the treatment.

It has to be said that medical ninjutsu is truly amazing. Even a high school student like Uchiha Naruto, who knows absolutely nothing about medicine, can use medical ninjutsu to pull people back from the brink of death.

Using medical ninjutsu on severely injured people rapidly increases one's proficiency in medical ninjutsu.

If that's the case, wouldn't saving dozens of critically injured and dying patients allow him to upgrade his medical ninjutsu to LV3? Uchiha Naruto thought greedily.

Since that's the case, Naruto Uchiha felt he needed to go to the hospital.

If you were to ask which place in a modern city is the best for practicing medical ninjutsu, the answer would undoubtedly be a hospital.

Each patient walking through the hospital is a walking package of experience.

That's why Naruto Uchiha hitched a ride on this opportunity to practice at the hospital and see what level of medical ninjutsu he could achieve with his Level 2 technique.

The ambulance arrived at Nippon Medical School Hospital in Sendagi 1-chome, Bunkyo Ward.

In addition to being equipped with the latest emergency center and operating department, this hospital is also designated by the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare as a cancer treatment center and is one of the top university hospitals in Japan.

As expected of a hospital?

After getting out of the ambulance, Naruto Uchiha walked into the hospital corridor. Smelling the disinfectant in the air, he felt that the hospital was much colder than the outside world. This was not only because the hospital was already well-cooled, but also because of the psychological effect.

This is a hospital, arguably the closest place to death in a big city. It's safe to say that most people spend their first and last days in a hospital, and countless life-and-death separations take place here every year.

Naruto Uchiha circled the first floor of the medical university hospital, but instead of rushing to find the patient, he went down, through the hospital's underground parking garage, and arrived at the morgue on the second basement level.

The morgue door was locked, as expected. Uchiha Naruto was considering what ninjutsu he could use to get in and take a look without breaking the lock.

Just then, two furtive figures secretly took out a bunch of keys, opened the morgue door, and slipped inside.
