Shadow trail of the beautiful world

Chapter 771 28. Thor. Unlucky Day

Time goes back a little, a few hours ago.

Donald Blake, a first-year medical student from New York, has just completed his first operation in his life. Although it is just a very ordinary surgical suturing operation, it has a very special meaning for Mr. Donald.

Donald...well, let's just call him Thor.

It's summer vacation time, and Thor has also joined the famous neurosurgeon Stephen Strange's patrol team as previously agreed.

Of course, he is just an assistant to the assistant, and he will not be assigned specific tasks. He is only responsible for doing some chores, helping Strange and Dr. Palmer, doing some chores, and has almost no sense of existence.

Thor has no complaints about this. He has decided to live on the earth for a long time, and his mentality has been adjusted very well.

Although he no longer has the powerful divine power as Thor, the wisdom of the Asgardians still remains in his mind.

The people of Shenyu are stronger than the people on Earth in all aspects, including the learning and application of knowledge, memory, flexibility of limbs, concentration, etc., these fields are far superior to people on Earth.

So Thor learned the basics of medicine very quickly. Although he was a real scumbag in Asgard, that didn't mean Thor wasn't smart, he just rarely used his brain.

In his teenage years, most of the problems he encountered could be solved with weapons in his hands, in which case, using his brain was pointless extra labor, not to mention, he always had Loki by his side.

In many cases, Rocky is his portable "brain".

But it's different now. Thor has to find a job to support himself on earth, and he also needs to find the meaning of continuing his life.

Under the pressure of reality, His Highness Thor also had to turn to get used to solving problems with his own wisdom. He was the best student in the medical school this year, and he was praised by many tutors.

But the problem Thor is facing now is that studying in medical school is obviously not the same thing as practicing in a real hospital.

What's more, it's really not a good job to work under the high-profile, arrogant and conceited Doctor Strange.

Thor had to endure the doctor's constant instructions, and had to help him deal with many chores in life, and even pushed the duck into the operating room to complete the things that should be done by Doctor Strange .

"How do you feel? A rookie."

When Thor walked out of the operating room, the very handsome Stephen Strange was leaning against the wall of the aisle, holding coffee, wearing a black windbreaker, and said to Thor:

"Did your hands not shake just now?"

"Doctor, you should know that I'm just a first-year medical student. In theory, I can't operate on patients."

Thor frowned and said to the dissolute and famous doctor:

"That should be your job."

"My job should be to save patients who are more critical and need me more, such as the fusion operation of a broken spinal cord that was completed 20 minutes ago, not to help a poor guy who accidentally scratched himself in the kitchen to stitch up the wound. "

Dr. Stephen drank his coffee, and said to his assistant in his signature conceited tone:

"That's overkill."

"Besides, when you were doing the operation, I was watching from the side all the time, Donald, your hands are very steady, your suturing skills are outstanding, and you have a calm demeanor. You don't have the clumsy performance of other rookies who are at a loss when they see the blood gushing out. ..."

"You seem very calm, focused on your work, and very commanding."

The eccentric doctor patted Thor on the shoulder and said:

"When you performed the operation just now, I felt like a general commanding a war. Those nurses who were older than you subconsciously obeyed your arrangements, and the entire operating room was in order."

"this is nothing."

It is not that Thor has not been praised before, and there are dozens of poems praised by bards in God's Domain, but the feeling of being praised by Stephen now is not the same as being praised by others in those days.

This pompous doctor is an authority in his field. Although he is only in his 30s, he has done things that many famous doctors in their 60s cannot do.

To use Thor's preferred metaphor, Doctor Strange is a true legendary warrior, and he's just complimenting a rookie on his sword skills.

Thor smiled, shook his long blond hair, leaned on a cane, and said to Doctor Stephen:

"I've only seen more terrifying scenes. It's just some blood, but it still doesn't scare me."

"So I said, you were born for this."

Strange raised his wrist, looked at the time, and said to Thor:

"It's time to get off work, let's go, let's have a meal to celebrate the successful completion of your first operation, I know there is a good barbecue in the suburbs, but it's a bit far, so we drove there."

A few minutes later, the two walked out of the hospital. Strange didn't drive his cool sports car. After all, he was here to make a medical round. It's not good to be too high-profile.

He rented an off-road vehicle with a heavy appearance and a great sense of security in Austin. While taking out the car keys, he said to Thor:

"You're going to be a great surgeon, and the other day I saw you were reading a book that only fourth graders read... It's a bit weird, but Donald, I think you're a genius, and you've been Hide yourself, you are low-key, why?"

Facing Strange's inquiry, Thor opened the car door, sat on the back seat, put his cane aside, and said:

"I just flipped through it, doctor, it doesn't mean I have mastered that knowledge, besides, wouldn't it be better to keep a low profile?"

"It's good to keep a low profile, but it's just one of the attitudes you can choose in life, although many people think that capable people should keep a low profile to avoid trouble."

While turning the steering wheel, Dr. Strange looked at Thor in the rearview mirror, and said softly:

"But I don't see it that way. If you are capable, you should show it and get the respect you deserve."

"Being famous gives you attention, and maybe you don't like the attention, but trust me, Donald, being famous makes your life so much easier, it's a matter of fact."

"Before Palmer and I did the nerve splicing, we were unknown in every hospital in New York, but after I did it, everyone knew me..."

"Fame is followed by wealth, and the money is rolling in. I have a car, a house, and this expensive outfit. It is no longer the hospital that chooses me, but I choose the hospital. I work freely and my life becomes better. free."

The pompous doctor said to Thor behind him while driving:

"But I deserve it, don't I?"

"I didn't steal or rob, everything I owned was obtained legally, and the treatment technology I mastered can help thousands of people in need in the future. People praise me, and those praise voices don't make me feel ashamed."

"Actually, I enjoy the compliments... Why can't I just live my life when I'm doing good and doing my job?"

Thor leaned on the back seat, he looked at the scenery passing by the window, Strange was promoting his attitude towards life to him, but Thor knew very well that his relationship with the doctor was not so good yet.

The doctor was just in a bad mood and needed a listener, and Thor was unfortunately chosen.

"You seem irritable today, Doctor."

Looking forward, Thor interrupted Strange, who was chattering, and said:

"Did something bad happen?"

"Something bad? No, nothing."

Doctor Strange immediately denied it, but after a while, he breathed a sigh of relief, and a look of gloom appeared on his face, he said:

"Palmer called me just now, and she said she was quitting her easy, high-paying job as an assistant and going back to work in an emergency room in New York. I asked her why, and she told me it was better than serving some rich people. , she hopes to serve more needy people."

"And she said she's had enough of my high profile ... I really don't get it, I can't understand it."

Strange slammed on the accelerator a little irritably, causing the off-road vehicle to accelerate continuously, swimming around like a nimble fish in the traffic.He said to Thor:

"Donald, you are so handsome, you must have a good relationship with women, so can you explain to me why these women make such weird decisions?"

"Uh, it's hard for me to explain this to you, doctor. To be honest, I don't really understand the thinking of women on Earth... Uh, I mean, these women around us."

Thor shrugged helplessly, and said:

"But I know that Dr. Palmer cares about you very much. While you are enjoying your life, maybe you should also respond to this concern instead of taking Dr. Palmer's care as you deserve."

"But I was good to her, Donald."

Doctor Strange retorted:

"I've never forgotten Palmer's help to me. I would like to share the honor with her, but she refused. She is a true believer in the idea that people should keep a low profile."

"Maybe that's not what she wants..."

Thor looked at the talented neurosurgeon in front of him a little speechlessly. During the period after coming to Earth, Thor reflected on his long life in the past, and he felt that he was insensitive enough to feelings.

But the doctor in front of him is obviously more dull than him.

Well, there is a saying in this world that when God opens the door, he will close the window. This is probably the case of Doctor Strange in front of him.

"Oh, forget it, let's not talk about these depressing things."

Strange continued to hit the accelerator to make the off-road vehicle run faster, and he turned to Thor and said:

"Palmer has left, and I need a new temporary assistant. Although you are just a rookie in the freshman year, through my observation, I think that maybe you can be qualified for this role during the next rounds."

"Look ahead! Damn it!"

As soon as Thor slapped the doctor's seat, Strank turned his head and saw a car in front of him slowing down. He hastily swung the reverse wheel and let the speeding off-road vehicle cross a dangerous S-shape on the road. He narrowly avoided the decelerating car.

The two people in the car were bumped hard, and they were still in shock.

Thor complained to Doctor Strange:

"You should really relearn the rules of driving, doctor, you always like to do other things while driving. This is not the first time. It's like always being distracted during a duel. This problem will come back one day. kill you."

"Ok."

The doctor, who was also taken aback just now, couldn't refute. He looked at Thor in the rearview mirror, and he said:

"Speaking of it, Donald, why do you always like to use fighting, fighting, and these things as wonderful metaphors? Were you good at these things before? Also, I always wanted to ask, before you became a medical student, were you a medical student? A soldier? Your physique is too healthy, and your figure is the envy of all men."

"Uh, doctor, you have weird eyes."

Thor shrugged, he opened his mouth and made a joke:

"If you want to have a good figure, exercise every day, and if you stick to it, you will be able to... As for being your temporary assistant, I am willing, but you also know that I can't undertake too complicated operations yet, and my experience is limited."

"Your tutors in school probably always told you that experience matters."

Strange turned the car to the road out of the city, patted the steering wheel, and said to Thor:

"But let me tell you, experience is indeed important, but in the profession of a doctor, talent is more important. You have enough talent. What you lack is practice. I will teach you, Donald."

"Also, after you graduate, are you interested in working in my medical team? I can help you arrange an internship for the next few years."

"That's too far away, Doctor."

Thor shook his head, and said:

"Of course, if there is an opportunity to graduate early, I won't refuse. Being a student is really not suitable for me...it's too ordinary."

"Hmm... Your tone sounds like a person with a story."

Dr. Strange looked in the rearview mirror and said:

"But you're so young, so I think you're just pretending to be deep. Am I right?"

"Just assume you guessed right."

Thor leaned back relaxed in the back seat, and he said to the doctor:

"Speaking of which, Stephen, you are really similar to someone I used to know. You are as proud, as high-profile, as talented in your own field, and have done things that others can't do...We It is probably because of this reason that the two hit it off so well."

"Okay, but I'm more concerned about how your friend is doing now?"

Doctor Stephen asked:

"Is he all right?"

"he died."

Thor responded, and then looked out of the window, the desert under the sunset on this road out of the city looked so magnificent and beautiful, and the natural scenery of the earth, compared with Asgard, was not too far behind.

"Well, it's a bad joke, it's not funny."

Stephen Strange curled his lips, he stopped talking, but speeded up the car, and drove Thor to a restaurant in a small town outside Austin.

The two ate there for a while, rewarded their stomachs, and went for a stroll in the surrounding desert. When they returned to the city, it was almost early morning.

While the two were talking, they were driving on the lonely road. After turning a corner, Dr. Strange, who was driving, suddenly saw someone waving on the side of the road, as if he was planning to hitch a ride.

According to Strange's usual personality, he would not pay attention to this matter, but tonight, he unexpectedly lowered the speed of the car, as if planning to pull over and stop.

Thor in the back seat also saw the guy blocking the car on the side of the road. When he saw the guy in an outdated suit for the first time, Thor instinctively felt that something was wrong.

Although he is now ready to become a doctor, the fighting instinct that belonged to Thor is still there.

As Strange got closer to that person, Thor's anxiety grew stronger, until the headlights shone on that guy, Thor suddenly found that the guy's shadow reflected on the ground formed a horned, A grim figure with a tail.

"No! Stephen, don't stop!"

Thor sounded a warning, but...

It's too late.
