On the day when the cooling-off period expired, Lin Yanqiu was only planning to get the divorce certificate from Gu Chengchuan.
But before the most important robotic surgery of his career started, she discovered that the robotic arm would deflect 0.8 Millimeters to the right every time.
The hospital said the error was controllable, and the manufacturer said the system had automatically corrected it.
Gu Chengchuan only asked her: "As the person in charge of safety, can I get on this machine?"
She said no, and then pressed the stop button with her own hands.
The patient switched to traditional options and completed the surgery safely. However, Lin Yanqiu became the number one suspect for tampering with parameters and taking advantage of the divorce to retaliate against her husband - because the account used to modify the device belonged to her, and the login location pointed to Gu Chengchuan's office.
In order to clear herself and prevent the next patient from taking the same risk, she traced the 0.8 Millimeters back to three years ago.
There was a right hand that could no longer hold the tweezers, a replacement accident accessory, and a "key" that should have failed but could open the equipment of seven hospitals.
The divorce certificate has been obtained.
They should have gone their separate ways, but they had to get to know each other again on the same chain of evidence.
