After successfully diagnosing a rare condition in Chapter 3, Miya-chan earns the respect of her gruff senior, Dr. Tachibana. However, her victory is short-lived. Chapter 4 opens with a code blue in the pediatric ward—a young patient she bonded with earlier begins to crash without warning.
Chapter 4, titled "The Price of Silence," is widely considered the most intense entry in the series so far. Unlike the previous chapters that focused on Miya-chan’s clumsy yet endearing attempts to navigate her residency, Chapter 4 thrusts her into an ethical nightmare.
The chapter masterfully uses silent panels and frantic, messy linework to convey Miya-chan’s internal panic. We see her freeze for the first time since her internship began, a moment of human fragility that feels painfully real. But the true gut-punch comes when she discovers that the crash might have been caused by a miscommunication between the night shift nurse and a careless attending physician.
