After the assailant writer was tripped to the ground by Kawei's kick, he was locked in the sundries storage room on the first floor of the surgical ward, surrounded by doormen. His hands and feet were tied to the chair, making him unable to move.
Because he had to wait for the results of the operation, Witte took two patrol policemen into the house first, intending to ask the ins and outs of the matter first. He moved a chair, took out his cigarette case, took out a cigarette and put it into his mouth, and asked, "What's your name? What do you do?"
The man whined and shook his head, and there was a tear at the corner of his mouth. Only then did Werther realize that someone had stuffed a rag into him: "It's stuffed really tight... Tell me, what's your name?"
Taking off the rag, the writer moved his sore cheeks, then wiped the drool from the corner of his mouth with his shoulder, and then said: "Gabriel Valles."
"For what?"
"The person who wrote the article..." Barrès hesitated for a while, then swallowed the word "writer", "It's a newspaper writer."
Werther looked at his figure and attire up and down, and immediately wanted to get to the point. Bales didn't need to ask any more questions. Anyway, the goal had been achieved, and he quickly told the whole story.
"You wanted to cheat your way into a marriage and live a good life, but when you failed, you stabbed the doctor?"
Werther summed up the whole process in one sentence, but from Barres' perspective, things didn't all go like this: "I finally found a girl who fell in love with me, just because he leaked my privacy. It’s over, I can’t accept it!”
"It's up to you whether you accept it or not. If you can't accept it, why don't you kill someone?"
"Anyway, my life is over. I have been living a life without a meal. Even if I get married, I can't have children. I might as well die early." Barres has seen through life and has nothing to miss. "Anyway With Dr. Orji as my backer, death is worth it."
Werther had seen many desperadoes, but there were very few like him: "I may disappoint you, but Dr. Orji is still alive."
Seeing the serious look on the detective's face, Barres couldn't help but frowned: "Don't be kidding, he was stabbed hard by me and shot at close range. The bullet was shot in the middle. There was no way he could survive."
"But in fact, he is indeed alive. If nothing else goes wrong, the operation should be successful." Witte sighed, "The era we live in is changing every day, and sometimes we have to lament the development of medical standards. We don't know when. , your disease will be cured."
"Who is it? Who is operating on him?"
Werther smiled and shook his head: "I am asking you, not you asking me, not to mention how could I tell such a thing to a suspect."
Valles had never considered the possibility of treatment for his infertility. He only felt that even a top-notch male surgeon like Orji couldn't handle his Gao Pill, so he was really hopeless. But now this male doctor is lying on someone else's operating table, undergoing someone else's surgery...
Is there really a more powerful doctor than Orgi?
...
At this time, Orgi's abdominal cavity had just been cleaned, and all the organs had been repaired and returned to their places.
After Kawei silently counted all the gauze and equipment, he handed over the burden of suturing the skin to Hills' hands.
Sewing the skin was not a difficult task for Hills. After the sewing was done, he did not need any instructions from Kawei and just naturally washed it with boiled cold salt water. The only difference is that Glaze Hospital does not yet have alcohol and carbolic acid, so disinfection can only be a simple rinse.
"The murderer really wanted to kill Dr. Orji." Kawei stood next to Musil and said, "Fortunately, the rescue was in time and the bleeding was stopped. Whether the incision can grow well depends on luck."
"This little guy is so powerful. He dared to cut his liver?" Musil's eyes were all on the small half of the liver. "If it were my place, I might have given up a long time ago."
"It can only be said that Dr. Orji was lucky. If the injection was on the right side of the liver, or a little lower, the operation would not be so easy." [1] Kawei did not say much about the spleen and gastrointestinal rupture. He just asked, "Teacher, what do you think of the surgery?"
"Very good, very good. You have the same demeanor as your teacher Ignatz. I think even if Orgi's incision festers and dies in the end, he will look at the incision on his stomach in heaven and give a thumbs up and praise it."
"Rebirth of the Great Era of Fighting Waves"
Musil bent over and cut the scalpel in his hand along the hole made by the bullet. He soon found the bullet in the cut left outer lobe: "The lead bullet still has burnt pieces of cloth stuck to it, and the firepower is weak." Small. By the way, where is the gun he used?"
"It's over there, wrapped in a handkerchief." The nurse pointed to the table nearby.
Musil put the gun in his pocket: "You have to take this thing back too."
"There is nothing to do with the teacher today."
Musil threw the scalpel into the plate: "How dare you say that? Since I met you, there have been fewer corpses."
"Teacher, your hands are itchy?"
"That's not true." Musil shook his head and said, "It's not like anyone's body can be sold casually. It's just a sentiment. By the way, I'll go take a look when your next surgery is."
"It depends on whether Dr. Lockard can find those two medical records for me."
Although the obstetrics department of Graz Hospital cannot compare with the Municipal General Hospital and St. Mary's Hospital in terms of scale, it still receives many consultations from pregnant women every day.
It’s just that cesarean section is too difficult and is listed as a contraindication surgery like St. Mary’s Hospital.
Whether it is placenta previa or birth canal stenosis, they basically refuse. In the end, these mothers who need cesarean section will choose to go directly to the municipal general hospital to try their best, or go home and let fate happen.
Considering that the reputation of the obstetrics department of the Municipal General Hospital is not good, and coupled with the persuasion of neighbors and relatives, many pregnant women will choose the latter and will not be sent to the hospital until it is time to actually give birth.
But different paths lead to the same goal. The end result of placenta previa is massive bleeding, while the end result of abnormal fetal position and narrow birth canal is dystocia.
In the past month or two, two pregnant women have come to Graz Hospital to inquire about YD bleeding. According to the obstetrics and gynecology procedures, they will come to the surgery department to consult Orgi's opinion, so Lockard still remembers it. The contents of the medical records are not long and will be piled into the medical record cabinet in the ward after the diagnosis and treatment is completed.
He needed to find these two people in the vast pile of books, because there were addresses on them, but it just took some time.
It was already ten o'clock in the evening when Orgi woke up. The side effects of the ether were a bit severe, and he completely forgot what happened after he was shot. The only thing I can feel now is the pain from the incision, and even drinking a whole bottle of Ravenclaw can't completely suppress this feeling.
"Teacher, please bear with me for one night." Lockard stayed by his side.
"I remember Barres shooting me."
"right."
"You stabbed me before."
"right."
"Am I still alive?" Orgi's voice was weak, but his surprise was evident in every word, "I thought I would definitely not survive..."
"Alive, alive and well." Lockard said with a smile, "Hiles has gone to the Municipal General Hospital to get carbolic acid. The incision will be disinfected later. I heard it can effectively prevent ulcers."
"Well, I remember, it was the one mentioned at the surgical meeting."
"Yes, it was mentioned at the regular meeting. It was specially recommended by Dr. Lister from the UK. There should be nothing wrong with it." Lockard said, "It's just that the incision will be very painful when disinfected."
Orji nodded: "It hurts as long as it hurts, as long as I can live..."
Kawei had already obtained the addresses of the two mothers, and one of them had already come to negotiate the price. The other party does not need to spend a penny for the whole process, and Kawei promises that the success rate of the operation is about 70%, which is much higher than that of other hospitals.
The other one, due to a sudden hemorrhage two days ago, died at home before he could even call the carriage.
Fortunately, one person was left, and Kawei carefully sent her to his surgical ward. According to the time of her delivery, Kawei decided to postpone it for a while, not only for the sake of the child, but he also had to consider the danger of massive bleeding from placenta previa.
Without B-ultrasound, blood transfusion, or any rescue medicine, Kawei must be sufficiently prepared to perform the play in front of Chino. Before that, he had turned down all surgeries and plunged into the library of the University of Vienna. Even Ignatz's new cleft lip repair surgery was declined by him.
Time soon came to the day of surgery.
March 21, 1866, anyone interested in surgery will never forget this date.
Ever since Kawei informed the theater of the time of the cesarean section five nights ago, all kinds of promotions have been going on. In addition to the theater itself, the news was published in the Vienna Zeitung and several other newspapers.
Especially in the daily newspapers, Varela and Gregg each used different writing styles and perspectives to show the public's expectations for this operation. 【2】
However, the editor quickly realized the business opportunity from the newspaper sales on the first day. From the time he got the news early on the 17th, he decided to follow up and report on the latest news about this surgery. The continuous publication did not officially stop until the morning of the 21st. 【3】
Of course, they did not forget Dr. Orji lying on the bed in Graz Hospital. 【4】
While the daily newspaper promoted the cesarean section, it also interspersed reports on the Valles murder case and the survivor Orji. Although the latter did not accept an interview, this legendary atmosphere only heightened public expectations for Kawei's surgery. 【5】
The reason why it attracts so much attention is not because Kawei is so good, but because the surgery is indeed very difficult.
In cesarean section, birth canal stenosis may still have a chance of survival, because as long as the operation goes well, the only thing the doctor has to deal with is poor uterine contraction. This is a very common situation during cesarean section with considerable bleeding, but there are still options to avoid it.
That is to cut off the uterus with one knife. As long as the uterus is cut off, the mother has the possibility of survival.
But in the face of placenta previa, if the surgeon can save the child, it is already a big event that can be spread to the world. Often, not long after the uterus is incised on the operating table, the mother dies of massive hemorrhage, and the child dies of asphyxiation in the womb.
Surgeons are also human beings, not lunatics who ignore life and death. When encountering a situation where no matter how much surgery they perform, the patient cannot be saved, they will often choose to escape. Even Ignatz, who took the patient very lightly, did not dare to operate on a woman with placenta previa until she had successfully performed a cesarean section.
But Kavi still moved, and even if he didn't move now, he would move in a week.
"How's it going? Is anyone here?" The host knocked on the door of the lounge.
"No." Herman shook his head.
"Why is your Municipal General Hospital like this when it comes to cesarean section..." Halfway through the sentence, the host found that Ignatz was also there and quickly closed his mouth, "Go and find it quickly. It's almost time." ”
Herman is still Kawei's assistant today, and the situation this time is indeed very similar to last time: "It's easy to say, but we also have to know where he is."
"I haven't seen him for two days." Ignatz's previous cleft lip surgery had been successful, so he didn't care too much about it. "Begert, he's really been in the library these days. ?”
"I only saw him the first day, and he disappeared after that." Berget replied, "He must have gone home, or he may have gone to other places."
"What about the hospital laboratory? Does the guy who stays there all day long know?"
"I've asked him before. I've only seen him once in the past few days. He disappeared after taking away the oxytocin I prepared earlier."
"It's impossible for him to go home. I went to his house to look for him." Ignatz was anxious, "Where can he go..."
"He couldn't have forgotten the surgery." Hills also appeared in the lounge as a friend. Looking at the familiar scene, he didn't know whether he should be excited or have a headache. "Or let Ignatius Mr. Ci, come on stage, the surgery has been exaggerated for this reason, how much will it cost to cancel it?"
"About more than 10,000 crowns." Ignatz said with a wry smile, "It's quite expensive."
"so many???"
"Just two VIP seats cost 3,000 kronor."
"The theater is too cruel."
"I was sure that someone would buy it, so I offered a sky-high price, which has exceeded the theater's highest record in the past years."
Ignatz knew that the hospital could not lose money, and the surgery would have to share the money by itself.
But if he is allowed to take the stage, I am afraid that 99.9% of the surgeries will end in failure, and that 0.1% is also left for Kawhi to rush to the rescue in time. Placenta previa moves in and out quickly. As long as there is heavy bleeding, the mother's heart can stop beating in just 10 minutes.
Hills saw his teacher's embarrassment and could only continue to complain about Kawei: "Look at yesterday's daily report. Even they know that Kawei has been missing for four days, and they think that today will definitely be the same as the French short-legged chicken." It would be just as ugly to lose to Belgium.”[6]
"It's not as vicious as you say."
"That's almost it. Escape is more shameful than failure!" Hills glanced at Ignatz beside him and almost told him about the situation that day, "No, we can't waste time here, we have to send someone to look for him. We'll go to the university, his residence, and the hospital. We still have time, as long as the host can hold the audience back."
"This...this may be a bit difficult."
"What's wrong?"
"The people who come here are all big and famous people. It's not something that our small theater can offend just by bringing them out." The host said awkwardly, "I was already very nervous when I was asked to stand on the stage, and I was asked to hold him back. them?"
While everyone was waiting anxiously, Kawei fell asleep sitting in the carriage.
At his feet was a box of surgical instruments that had just been updated, and on the seat was a medicine box, which contained not only a dozen vials of oxytocin, but also a palm-sized glass bottle. This is what he has gained in the past four days, and it is also the key to this cesarean section operation.
