My pager beeped, summoning me to the hospital. As I raced toward the hospital, a patrol car sped up behind me—lights flashing, siren blaring. So I hung my stethoscope out the window to signal that I was on an emergency call. Within seconds came the policeman's response: a pair of handcuffs flapping outside the police car window.
我的傳呼機(jī)響了,呼喚我到醫(yī)院去。我正急著往醫(yī)院趕的時(shí)候,一輛警車加快速度追了上來(lái),閃著燈,拉著警笛。我把聽(tīng)診器從窗口伸出去,表示我是趕著去赴急診。幾秒鐘之后,警察的回應(yīng)過(guò)來(lái)了:一副手銬從警車的窗口伸出來(lái)。
