"Why did you let it go until it got this bad?" "Why didn't you tell me?" "!" "Get a hold of yourself..." "Jounouchi Sensei!" "Jounouchi Sensei!" "Ambulance!" "This is the story of a lone wolf woman doctor." "Looks like I'll have to pay a lot extra for this room..." "This was the only room that was available so bear with it." "How do you feel?" "I guess you wouldn't be feeling good..." "This bed is so comfortable!" "Beds in special rooms are indeed special." " Really?" " Yeah." "Hey..." "Why don't you try it out?" " Should I?" " Yeah." " You're right, it feels good." " Right?" "Let me do your surgery." "I thought you'd say that..." "But you know, even for Daimon-san, this surgery is impossible." "Unresectable locally advanced pancreatic cancer, Stage IVa." "The tumor's straddling the head and body of the pancreas and it's infiltrated into the common hepatic artery and celiac artery too." "Don't worry, I'm all right!" "I've prepared myself already." "Mortality rate for humans is 100 percent, right?" "Sooner or later, everyone dies." "Besides..." "I'm glad it's cancer." "Huh?" "Because unlike with other diseases," "I know how much time I have left." "I want to fully use the time that's left for me and leave money for Mai." "I'm going to charge an exorbitant amount of contract money from Wang Group before I die." " Say..." " Hm?" "Are you really going to the hospital in Shanghai?" "Yeah..." "So please... cooperate with me so that they don't find out that I'm sick." "Okay?" "That's the only thing I can do for Mai..." "Director Hiruma will now begin making his rounds." "In the year 2016, the collapse of the Ivory Tower was showing no signs of slowing down, and medical care, which engages in human life, was losing sight of its direction." "Something big is happening." "Ah..." "Namaste." "Namaste." "They're celebrities from abroad who heard about the success of Mrs. Wang Chau's" " simultaneous surgery of the mother and fetus." " Oh..." " Ni hao." " Ni- hao." "Nowadays, Totei U's reputation is climbing like eels (metaphor for soaring)..." "Well, climbing like eels is a rather old fashioned expression." "Unagi is "eel" in English, you know." "So how's eel, hop step jump!" "Gyoi!" "Is it going to be all right being so happy go lucky?" "It looks like headhunting by Wang Group has already started." "Didn't they make you an offer too, Kaji Sensei?" "What?" "You're kidding, right?" "Kitano Sensei isn't here after all." "Looks like the world renowned Kitano was hired away first before anyone else." "You're kidding, right?" "Kaji Sensei, you're kidding, right?" "Oh, watch out!" " Director, are you hurt?" "!" " No, I'm okay." " Daimon!" "Stop once, will ya!" " I will not." "Why don't you line up at least once, you part-..." " Oh, she's gone already..." " She's gone..." "At this rate, all the good doctors will be hired away by Wang Chau's new hospital." "Idiot!" "It's all your fault!" "Morning." "What happened to the patient?" "She was discharged." " Ni hau, Wang Chau-san." " Ni hau." "Jounouchi Sensei, are you going to Wang Group's new hospital too?" "Yes." "As long as conditions are right." "I see." "I intend to welcome the new year in Shanghai." "If I'm going, I prefer to go sooner." "I'd like to spend Christmas in Shanghai with my daughter." "You won't ever regret hiring me." "I guarantee it." " That's great." " Director!" "Mr. Wang Chau gave us referral for another patient." " A VIP of all VIPs." " Really?" "Who is it?" "The next presidential candidate and hotel magnate, Mr. Leonardo Scoop and his wife Diana." "No way...!" "If it becomes known that Mr. Scoop has health issues, it would interfere with his political activities." "He wishes to get a top secret surgery at our hospital." "I see, I see." "Then I, the Surgery Department Chief, shall serve as your surgeon." "Nice to meet you." "No." "He would like Kitano Sensei to do it." "His wife would like a painless childbirth at our OB/GYN using our most advanced anesthesia." "I see, I see." "I know you guys." "From the internet." "Huh?" "Internet?" "The funny song..." " Ah...that!" " Is it that?" "Shall we do it?" "?" "I have a pen?" "?" "I have an apple?" "?" "Apple pen?" "No, no no no." "It's a... yu-yu izu muni?" " "Yuitsu muni"?" " Yes!" "How about performing it live for her?" "That's a good idea." "Let's do it." " Rika-chan, we're gonna do it." " Gyoi." "?" "The one and only (Yuitsu muni)" "?" "No mountain stands beside us" "?" "Winds can only trail us We'll go our own way" "?" "Totei, Totei, Totei, Totei" "?" "Our proud alma mater" "?" "The one and only" "How was that?" "That's was absolutely hilarious!" "I'm glad you liked it!" "?" "Totei Totei" "I wonder if Jounouchi-kun's going to quit and leave after all." "Micchan, doesn't look like we'll get another player." " Why don't we play 3-player majhong?" " No thanks." "To:" "Hiromi Where are you?" "Michiko's worried to death." "It's Hiromi." "Huh?" "What?" ""At the moment, I'm busy." "I'll take a pass on the mahjong."" "What the heck is this..." "She's got really bad taste." "Who cares about her." "That hurt~!" "I wonder why I didn't notice your charm before." "I can't believe it." "It was a big mistake on my part." "I don't like the Japanese people who are always conspiring with each other." "But... you're different." "To be honest, you are really... really my type." "Let's go to Shanghai together." "Yes." "I think he'll do it." "The IRE knife..." "We will now begin our pre-op conference for this week." "First case is Mr. Leonardo Scoop." "Male, 50 years old." "Nationality, United States." "Diagnosis is locally advanced pancreatic cancer, Stage IVa." "The attending surgeon is Kitano Sensei." "Please." "Let me announce the surgery team." " First Assistant is..." " Let me do it." " Please let me do it." " Please let me!" "First Assistant..." "Daimon Sensei." " I will not do it." " Why?" "Why would you refuse a surgery that everyone in the Surgery Dept. wants to do?" "Huh?" "Because I don't feel like it." "Fine..." "For this surgery, I will be using the IRE knife." "The IRE knife that's still a rare item in Japan?" "Of course, I will only use it on VIP patients." "At a hospital in New York, using 6 electrode needles and high voltage current, we successfully killed cancer cells." "Here!" "I'll do it after all." " You just refused, didn't you?" " I changed my mind." "So you decided you want to steal the IRE knife technique from me too, huh?" "Okay." "I welcome assistants who aspire to better themselves." " First Assistant?" " No, you're Third Assistant." "He's totally holding a grudge against her for what she said earlier." "Our superstar is so petty." "Oh well, Demon will probably refuse to be Third Assistant." "Okay." "Third Assistant it is." "Gladly." "Don't get so carried away!" "All we have here are doctors who want to be headhunted by Chinese money!" "You guys make me sick!" "Where's your Japanese spirit?" "!" "Daimon Michiko." "I'm disappointed in you." "Third Assistant?" "Don't you have any pride?" "!" "That's not it, is it?" "Say "I will not do it" and refuse!" "I will do it." "For me, surgery is a hobby." "For example, this woman." "Averse to groups, averse to authority, averse to constraints, a medical specialist's license and her self-honed skill are her only weapons." "Surgeon Daimon Michiko." "Also known as Doctor X." "How's it going?" "Please, I beg you." "Don't say anything about my illness." "That's not what I meant." "Are your eyes going bad on you too?" "Huh?" "I know you like good looking guys." "What do you see in Kitano?" "His engaging English... perhaps?" "Okay, you guys." "All right then." "Let's begin." "We will now begin the application of Irreversible Electroporation (IRE) to Mr. Leonardo Scoop's locally advanced pancreatic cancer." "Vitals." "Blood pressure 130/73, heart rate 65." "Scalpel." "Incision." "Monopolar." "Kitano-kun." "I'm sure you know, but failure is unacceptable." "After all, it's a surgery for the next presidential candidate." "Are you planning to binge shop for doctors too?" "Just like rice cookers..." "IRE knife." "Is that the IRE knife?" "That costs several tens of million..." "Connect the probes." "I got it." "One more." "Third Assistant." "Keep your eyes on the surgery and focus." "All set." "Let's turn it on." "Voltage 3,000 volts." "Jounouchi Sensei, how's the muscle relaxant?" "There's no problem with the muscle relaxant." " Heart rate 72, NSR." " Okay." "Ablation." "Done." " Perfect." " Good!" " Good job." " Good job." " Good job." " Good job." " Good job ." " Good job." "Daimon Sensei!" "What do you think you're doing?" "The reason you volunteered to be Third Assistant was so that you could sneak out the IRE knife..." "Please, let it go." "How can we let you get away with taking something that costs tens of millions!" " I'll return is as soon as I'm done with it." " Who... are you gonna use that on?" "Huh?" "What?" "What is it?" "Don't tell me you're..." "Let me do the surgery." "As long as I have this, I can do it." "I can't believe it..." "This goes beyond dismissal if the hospital finds out!" "We need you to live." "For Mai, and Akira-san, and..." "me too." "Don't worry." " I..." " You don't have to... say the rest because I know." "The truth is..." "I'm scared..." "Because I know best what a risky surgery it's going to be." "Please... say those words...after all..." "Please, Daimon Sensei..." "Don't worry." "I never fail." "Don't miscalculate the amount of muscle relaxant." "Leave it to me." "Hey, what time do you think it is!" "You're free anyway, aren't you?" "I was touched by Daimon Sensei and Jounouchi Sensei's friendship." "I won't tell anyone that you opened the operating room without permission." "Also the fact that you stole." "Let's hurry before we get found out." "Blood pressure 126/61, heart rate 75." "Scalpel." "Thanks." "Monopolar." "Michiko, relax..." "IRE knife." " Hold up the stump so that I can stick it in the tumor." " Got it." "That way, we won't damage the celiac artery." "Even without a navigation system, you have the location of tumor and blood vessels perfectly in your head?" "Okay, Give me one more." "Moreover, she's fast..." "Thanks." "We're turning it on." "Changing knife position one last time." "She's having a barrage of PVCs (premature contractions)!" "Administer lidocaine." "I going to keep on energizing." "Got it." "Okay." "PVC won't stop..." "Micchan, if you keep this up, her heart won't be able to withstand the current." "It's dangerous..." "Daimon Sensei." "Demon." "You never fail, remember?" "Go... going any further is..." "Michiko." "Close her up." "...Inoperable." "The surgery's over yeah." "Daimon-san, this is the first time I've seen you looking like that..." "It's okay." "Please tell me the truth." "I couldn't...remove everything." "I see..." "Knowing that Daimon-san, who I trust the most in the whole world, did the surgery, that's more than enough for me." "Daimon, is it true you stole the IRE knife?" "Furthermore, you opened the operating room without permission and performed surgery..." "Huh?" "You come with me." "I was wrong." "I must say you have some nerve." "Why don't we turn her in to the police?" "This part-timer is bound to make trouble again." "Daimon Sensei, the reason you pushed forward with this surgery was solely from your desire to save the life of your partner Jounouchi Sensei, right?" "Kikawada-kun, how can you expect me to turn someone like Daimon Sensei in to the police?" " Does that mean no punishment?" " That's right." "It sounds like there's a catch." "I think personnel with outstanding talent like you should belong to an organization after all." " Enlist under the banner of Hiruma Shigekatsu..." " I will not." " That "I will not do" was fast!" " You're too greedy." "Director hasn't..." "Director, about that matter..." "Oh!" "That's right." "Listen, Daimon Sensei." "You're getting flooded with requests for surgery." "They're all celebrities referred by Mr. Wang Chau." "As penalty for the matter this time around, we'd like you to take on all these surgeries." "Gyoi." "And all those surgeries that you took on, we want you to do them for free." "Since it's a penalty, you know." " However, I have a condition too." " Oh, what can it be?" "Let Jounouchi Sensei stay in the special room for the rest of the year." "Well, okay." " Moreover, for free." " What?" "!" "Mr. Wang Chau would now like to cancel the contract with you." "All right..." "Why didn't you tell me you were sick?" "The fact that Hiromi-san asked Daimon-kun to perform the surgery was quite a shock." "Why did you ask her and not me?" " That's because..." " That's because?" "Daimon Sensei's...a better surgeon." "Thank you for everything." "I wish you happiness with your wife." "I...never give up." "Dr. Daimon!" "Welcome." " Ni hao." " Ni hao." "I wouldn't mind going to Shanghai." "In exchange, I want the contract money in cash." "Fine." "For you, I'll pay your asking price." "Tell us your asking price." "We got a deal?" "Hello." "Good bye." "How much would you like?" "Huh?" "Uh..." "Please clearly tell us the amount." "About this much." "Was 3 million too much?" "She's gonna gouge me for 300 million, huh?" "Are you paying?" "Or not?" "Okay?" "Oh...thank you." "Let's put this back on the drawing board..." "Drawing board?" "!" "What...what~?" "!" "Heck, he's pretty stingy..." "Then I'll settle for 1 million." " 500,000 yen will do too. 500,000 yen.." " What did she say?" " I need money." "I said I need money." " What do you mean?" "Get her out of here!" " Get out." " Good bye, good bye." "My bag, my bag, my bag..!" "Hey, wait..." "Tightwad!" "Huh...?" "It's better if you don't." "He's a real tightwad!" "Demon...!" "You're off by 2 digits." "Resignation..." "This must mean all these folks accepted the offer to be hired away." "To Wang Chau's hospital." "Didn't you know until it came to this?" "What a fine state of affairs..." "Aren't you guys like them too?" " That is absurd." " Not at all!" "I haven't accepted all these resignations!" "If, in the future, any staff members should really resign," "I'll have you two resign as well." " Wait..." "No way..." " Uh..." "That ship has sailed." "That's water under the bridge." "It was only for a short time, but thank you for everything." "Kitano-kun, not you too!" "Kitano-kun, come on..." "Won't you reconsider?" "Kitano-kun," "If you leave this hospital now," "I'll be in big trouble." "Won't you please reconsider?" "If you do, I'll do anything you say." "Look, Director is going this far!" "Kitano-kun..." "Please, I beg you..." "Kitano-kun..." " Please." " Please." "Please stop that." "Please!" "My answer is... no." "Hey, Kitano." "Cut the bullshit..." "Hey!" "Who do you think got you to where you are now?" "!" "When I was a member of the medical staff," "I was treated like trash by you professors and" "I wasn't even allowed to assist in a surgery, let alone hold a scalpel." "What the heck!" "Are you holding a grudge for something like that?" "!" "I wanted to get you guys down on your knees with skills I developed on my own." " That's why we're on our knees like this!" " However, the level of professors is so low," "I realized how meaningless it was even if I won." "The reason for my being here is... nothing!" "Kitano..." "Kitano!" " Kitano-kun!" " Kitano-kun~!" "Onii-chan, this hospital is rotten to the core." "Cleaning house is impossible now." "Delicious..." "You gave me a scare, just standing there like that." "That's creepy..." " Deputy Director." " Huh?" "Would you like to team up with me?" "What?" "Hey, is it necessary to do this test every day?" "Yes." "Oh, Mai's coming home for Christmas, isn't she?" " Can't wait to see her, huh?" " Yeah." "But don't you think God's mean?" "To give such cruel treatment to a single mother." "I wonder how much time I have left..." "Estimating objectively, about 3 months?" "How much time you have left is doctor's excuse to shirk away from his responsibility." "Say, isn't there any man you'd like to have met?" "Huh?" " Unfortunately, I don't have any." " How boring..." "After I found out about my illness, all I did was worry about the time after I was gone." "That I had to leave enough money for Mai." "But in truth, it's not about money." "I just want to... live longer." "I want to see Mai become prima donna, and if she's unable to become prima donna, then I want to be there to cry with her." "I want to fall in love, and" "I also wanted to get remarried to a nice guy." "And just once, I would've liked to win majhong with sanbaiman." " Can you understand?" " Yeah." "Also," "I wanted to show off my bare legs wearing a mini-skirt like you." "What?" "Really?" " And..." " You have more?" "You're pretty greedy, aren't you?" "I wanted to do more surgeries." "There's continuous tension in the operating room." "There are times it gets so scary it makes you want to run away..." "But when I hear the sound of the patient's vital signs, it makes me feel alive too." "That I'm living an extremely highly concentrated time right now with the patient." "You know what I mean, don't you?" "I would've liked to do more surgeries like that with you." "It wasn't a failure, but any doctor's experienced the sense of defeat." "that there was nothing you could have done" "It's a territory beyond human understanding." "Today, Akira-san splurged on premium meat for us so eat a lot~!" "Thank you!" "I'll help myself!" "Mai-chan, do you remember this?" "Yes." "It's Mr. Shark." "When Mama had to go work on a day off, Akira-san babysat for me, right?" " That's right." " By the time we got home after the surgery," "Akira-san was totally pooped out!" "You rabbit you!" "I'm gonna eat that up!" "One more time!" "Seeing how that Mai-chan has grown so big," "Mr. Shark is filled with deep emotion." "Hey!" "Don't take my meat." "But ballerinas and surgeons need lots of nutrients, right?" "Mama, aren't you eating?" "No, I'm not too hungry." " Are you on a diet?" " No." "Mai." "Listen..." " I have something important to tell you." " What is it?" "The truth is," " Mama..." " Shall I take a guess?" "Mama, do you have a boyfriend?" "Are you getting married?" "No, no..." "It's nothing like that..." "Anyway, let's eat for now, huh?" "Then I'm eating too." "Christmas with yakiniku is the best!" "I think I'll have a bite too." "It's good." "You don't have to force yourself." "I'm not." "It's really good." " Let's go to the hospital." " What?" " Hospital?" " Why?" " But there's still lots of meat left." " Anyway, let's go." "Mai and Akira-san, take your time eating." "Wait a minute, Michiko." "All right...!" " You're down staging." " What do you mean?" "You couldn't remove it all with surgery, right?" "I thought if I killed as much cancer cells as possible with the IRE knife," "I may be able to bring the staging down." "I took my chance on that." "The tumor shrunk." "There's no infiltration into blood vessel either." "Then..." "You can be cured if we operate right away." "God isn't that mean after all." "So you're quitting too..." "Diana's labor has started." "Tell them to use the operating room." "Hey!" "Let me use the operating room right now." " The operating room just got taken." "Sorry." " Please!" " No!" "No way, no way, no way, no way." " Please!" "Mrs. Scoop has priority." "There's no way!" "In what country is this hospital?" "It's in Japan, so?" "A tax-paying Japanese national can't use a national university hospital?" "Because it's occupied by wealthy foreigners." "Does that make any sense?" "!" "You don't even know a director's troubles..." "You keep your mouth shut!" "Hurry up and get ready for the surgery." "My wife, she's very sensitive to pain." "Childbirth isn't a sickness!" "You can do it normally!" "Are you ready?" "Delivery room." "What are you doing?" "!" "I have a Japanese midwife's license and" "I'm telling you I'll deliver the baby for you!" "Understand?" "Stop!" "She's in terrible pain!" "Pull yourself together, Husband!" "You too!" "Oba-chan, thank you." "Is it only you today, Micchan?" "I guess it can't be helped since it's Christmas." "I went and canceled my date at the last minute for you." "She was furious." "Wang Chau-san is the one who's furious." "Kaji Sensei broke a contract worth several tens of million yen to come here, you know." "Thanks." "I wonder what Mama wanted to talk about." "Let's go pray." "Mai-chan." "Your mama's...sick." "What does she have?" "It's a disease called pancreatic cancer, and her condition is pretty grave." "But...don't worry." "She has Daimon Michiko by her side." "We will now perform Jounouchi Hiromi-san's pancreaticoduodenectomy subsequent to down staging." "Metzen." "Hey!" "What are you doing again without permission!" "Daimon-kun, you're fired for sure this time!" " Hey, Kaji!" "Hara!" " We can hear you." " Do you want to get fired?" "!" " No..." "As for me, I'm a part-timer anyway." "As for us, we're part-timer's assistants." "Daimon?" "This isn't Mrs. Scoop's operation." "Hey!" "Ligation of the pancreaticoduodenal vein?" "3-0 silk." "Cooper scissors." "One more." " Daimon Sensei." "There's bleeding." " Why?" "Probably because the motion of the vascular system changed due to the effect of the IRE knife." "Direct pressure hemostasis." "Gauze ball." "This isn't looking good." "I suspect portal vein might be damaged." "Blood pressure's declining." "Down to 60's!" "Heart rate 100!" "More suction!" "Prepare for transfusion!" "Bleeding won't stop!" "Kitano Sensei!" " Kitano-kun..." " Kitano." "How dare you show up here..." "Hey, Kitano!" "Dislodge and elevate the head of the pancreas" " and confirm damage to the portal vein." " Got it." " I'll take over the head." " Please." "Gauze ball once more." "I see..." "That will enable you to find point of unexpected bleeding." "Oh..." "Director!" "Please have a seat." "Ah..." "It's Daimon again..." "Bleeding site of portal vein confirmed." "Suturing the damaged site." "6-0 polypropylene." "Please save Mama..." "Please!" "Don't worry, Mai." "I'll never give up." "Dear God, please extend a helping hand to Daimon Michiko." "I...never fail." "It's a healthy boy who looks just like his papa." "It's beautiful..." "It's perfect..." "Gastrojejunostomy complete." "Stop the bleeding and move on to close the abdomen." "Monopolar." "Please wipe off Daimon Sensei's sweat." "Excuse me." "Well done, Micchan." "Demon, good job." "Daimon Sensei, good job." "Perfect." "Thanks to you all, I was able to do a good job." "Merry Christmas!" "Merry Christmas!" " Merry Christmas." " Merry Christmas." "Merry Christmas!" "Merry Christmas!" "Gentlemen." "The Director wishes you a Merry Christmas." "Thank you miracle." "Shanghai." "Happy new year." "Happy new year." "Wang Chau International Clinic welcomes select doctors and opens today." "On our behalf, the world renowned Kitano will give a speech." "There are no borders in the field of medicine." "Even in new areas, we must aim for the top!" "Polish the glass some more!" "Deputy Director Kubo, what are you doing here?" "It's not deputy!" "I'm Kubo Touko, the Director." "The way cleaning is done at this hospital is unacceptable!" "I'm enforcing strict discipline of the pure and honest Japanese spirit!" "Gyoi." "..where's your gyoi?" "!" "Gyoi." "Oh my God..." "Happy new year, everyone." "Happy new year." "Oh, uh...say." "Why don't we scoot up a bit." "To the front." " There's been quite a decrease." " Don't say that." "If things worked out, I'd be in Shanghai now too..." "What are you laughing about?" "You weren't even invited." "This Totei University Hospital..." "I suppose you can say, is facing the biggest crisis since it was founded..." "Both Surgery and Internal Medicine Departments ended up getting split up, but we should take this split as an opportunity" " for us to unite..." " Director." " Hereafter, we'll... huh?" " Thank you for the touching speech" " for the last time." " I'm not done yet..." "That was just the beginning." "Oh, Mr. Chairman..." "You'll have to take responsibility for having so many members of your staff hired away." "Hiruma Shigekatsu." "We order your reassignment to Branch Hospital No. 16." "Oh, Minami-kun, Minami-kun..." "I, too, had connections with Shanghai." " What?" "!" " I'm the PR officer, after all." "Good luck!" "Happy new year!" "Thank you for taking care of our Daimon Michiko and Jounouchi Hiromi for the past 3 months." " Two melons for you." " What...?" "Invoice from last year." "Excuse me, but...he became the former director just now, so please give the invoice to the next director." "No." "Last year's invoice goes to you." "Contract complete!" "We made a bunch of money!" "Totei U, banzai!" "Banzai!" "Rika-chan, what are you going to do now?" "Melon...melon!" "Uh..." "I'll be going to Branch Hospital No. 16, but you guys are coming with me... aren't you?" "Mama, I'll write you a letter from London again, okay?" "Okay." "You know, I had given up once." "That I'd never get to see Mai again." "Mama..." "But Daimon-san never once gave up." "So Mai, believe in yourself too." "You know, Mai." "Maybe it's not God but people who make miracles happen, huh?" "Say, are there any good men in London?" " Michael." " Michael?" "How old is he?" " 10 years old." " 10 years old, huh?" "This is the story of a lone wolf woman doctor." "I wonder where Michiko went." "Space and then New York..." "Did she go to an uninhabited island next?" "Huh?" "Ben Casey..." "I sure slept well!" "Oh, you scared me!" " Akira-san, I'm hungry." " What?" "You were here?" "How many days are you going to sleep?" " My body hurts..." " Isn't it from sleeping too much?" "Ouch, ouch..." "Body hurts." "Hello." "I have delivery of frozen item for you." "Kubo Touko in Shanghai..." "Frozen dumplings!" " Can I get your signature here." " Something to write with." " Pen, pen." "Don't you have a pen?" " Just a minute." "I have a pen." "What happened?" "Akira-san, ambulance." "I suspect heart attack." "Okay, got it." " Am I going to die?" " Don't worry." "I won't let you die." " Here, Michiko." " Thanks." "Thanks." "For example, this woman." "Averse to groups, averse to authority, averse to constraints, a medical specialist's license and her self-honed skill are her only weapons." "I never fail." "Surgeon Daimon Michiko." "Also known as Doctor X."
