Dark-Haired British Doctor - Chapter 107
Only Noblemtl
Episode 107: Suddenly [1]
“Collect the bodies… … ?”
“Let’s collect it, then. At least twenty people will come… … . “Where can we end up like this?”
Dr. Liston pointed to the dissection lab.
There was never a shortage of corpses, and even looking at it now, it didn’t feel like that at all.
However, after assuming that 20 surgeons should come and practice at least once, I looked again… … It definitely seemed like it wasn’t enough.
Since we live in an age where there is no formalin in the first place, the period during which practice is possible is bound to be too short even if the body is secured.
Coming from Korea in the 21st century, where practical training was conducted on a single corpse for a semester or even an entire year, it felt quite unreasonable to me.
“So we have to collect it.”
“uh… … “Where?”
“That’s the problem.”
Should I say I am fortunate?
It was not very difficult to find a body in London during this time.
Just here… … .
look at me
thud.
Another one came in today too.
Even if not every day… … .
One or two were coming in almost every week.
It was possible because I had no intention of asking for consent.
So, it is safe to say that this is a manifestation of great immorality… … .
“It would have been a lot easier if those crazy people hadn’t caught us in Edinburgh… … .”
What was surprising was that this was a greatly improved result.
The incident that Liston had just mumbled with regret.
So, in the old capital of Scotland, the city that gave birth to Adam Smith, the protagonist of The Invisible Hand, and David Hume, the protagonist of empiricism, and even nicknamed the Athens of the North, a truly shocking event occurred.
‘William Burke… … William Hare… … .’
Two guys with ordinary names, whose names you don’t even know what they are, committed a heinous act.
There was also an accomplice.
Robert Knox.
He’s a pretty famous anatomist… … Even this London university had a book written by him.
What kind of crime was the famous anatomist involved in? It was not a simple crime, but a series of murders.
Of course, the term refers to serial murder, and since that term only appeared in the late 1900s, it was not used, but in my view, these guys were flawless serial killers.
“The one you two killed was sixteen?”
“yes? Ah yes. That’s what’s known.”
“There could be more. actually… … “I guess it was just them.”
“that… … Yes.”
As Liston said, the number of people they killed was as high as sixteen.
From what is known, there is a strong possibility that there are more… … .
The purpose was to dissect the corpse.
To be more precise, Dr. Knox bought the body from them for the purpose of dissection.
They literally ‘produced’ the corpse.
“no… … There are so many people dying anyway… … “Are things a little different in Edinburgh?”
“Rather… … what… … “Didn’t you say you wanted a young, healthy body?”
“Wow. crazy guy No matter how much I want to dissect a corpse… … “Killing people.”
“I would have said it was unfair to the end. Actually what… … “You’re not dead.”
“He’s not dead. “I heard you’re looking for something to lecture here and there, but if you catch my eye, you’re dead.”
“that… … .”
When I saw… … .
Even before that, and even now, something like that was definitely happening.
It’s not that there are some corpses dissected at our university whose origins are unclear.
The reason I didn’t dig into it was because I was afraid that if I found out, I would end up facing something difficult to deal with.
Of course, it is true that after the incident was clearly revealed, crackdowns of their own occurred and the supply of corpses decreased.
In fact, I heard that some universities have even banned dissection of corpses altogether.
‘This human… … ‘Isn’t that why you’re angry?’
Before that… … .
So, I heard that until just two years ago, there was no shortage of corpses in the dissection laboratory.
Rather, it was said that there were many cases where there was not enough money to pay because so many people came.
That it has decreased… … .
No matter how I thought about it, it seemed like a good thing.
This means that the number of murdered bodies brought in has decreased.
“Anyway, I guess I should ask for it like you said?”
Of course, I was not a brave person who would dare say such a thing in front of Liston.
So I just brought up something else.
William Buckney: Isn’t it a very inappropriate thing to say in a dissection lab?
Oh my god, murder for the sake of dissecting a corpse… … .
It was surprising that he said something like that at the trial.
He was proud even though he committed a crime that could not be justified for any purpose.
“yes. “We need to get everything done this week or next week to get him to go to another hospital.”
Anyway, since Liston is a goal-oriented person, it wasn’t that difficult to change the topic.
The unfortunate thing was that this man was looking at me and other disciples while saying these words.
“uh… … .”
“yes?”
There was no use in Joseph and Alfred making stupid noises.
“I will save you!”
After all, once Liston makes up his mind, isn’t it fate that he must follow?
However, this does not mean that Colin, who showed a passion for saving bodies, was normal.
Where on earth are you going to go and what will you do to save me? … .
I was also worried because he seemed to have strangely psychopathic tendencies.
In the past, I would have either done it or thrown it away, but now that I’ve come in completely bowed, I can’t do that.
“Okay, save me.”
“yes? brother. Come save me. Did you just mention William Burke and his hair?”
“I’m not asking you to kill me. “Just save me.”
“That means… … Isn’t that what you mean… … ?”
“Don’t get me wrong. Should a doctor kill someone? “Just save me somehow.”
therefore… … .
When someone like you says something like that, it seems like he’s a gangster, and it seems like the option of murder must be included somehow.
“Shall we go to the cemetery first? “A huge amount of bodies come in there every day.”
“No, there… … There are already too many rotting bodies. Rather… … .”
As expected, there seemed to be an ominous word behind it.
Words like street or someone else’s house.
It’s a problem to think like this, but I thought I’d really have no idea what to do after hearing it, so I hurried as much as possible.
“Hey, how about the police station!”
“police office… … ?”
“If a murder case occurs… … I follow along. then… … “No, I’m going to do an autopsy.”
“oh. “That’s a good idea!”
“No, the autopsy… … .”
“The autopsy can be done here. “They will be grateful if we do it for them.”
uh… … .
is it?
Thank you… … ?
Actually, didn’t autopsy develop only after medical science developed?
Even though I did an autopsy… … So, I didn’t major in forensics.
At best, it’s all I heard as a student.
Still, it seemed like it would be much better than the people here.
“Okay then, instead of doing this here, let’s all get out.”
“that… … Are you really going to the police station?”
“After what you said, why are you saying something else now?”
“Other friends… … No, no.”
these guys.
He must have hated being dissected so much that his eyes lit up as soon as he was told to leave.
It wasn’t that I couldn’t understand it at all.
Just the smell of formalin gives me a headache, but here… … .
Oh, I accidentally took a deep breath and I feel like I’m going to throw up… … .
“let’s go!”
Anyway, we left the dissection lab, took a carriage, and headed to the police station.
The carriage was getting better and better, thanks to our Dr. Liston cutting off so many limbs.
We need to quickly develop a new technique or do something to reduce the number of people who need amputation… … .
Since I had only one body, there was still a lot of work for Liston in London.
“Howdy.”
“G-call for support!”
“I am Liston.”
“Liston! Most Wanted… … “No, Professor.”
There was a brief commotion as we entered the police station.
As always, it happened because of the face… … .
Fortunately, as there were some incidents involving the police station, there were now police officers who knew Liston’s face, so he was able to sit in a safe place instead of the detention center.
“that… … What did you come for?”
Didn’t you help Killian with syphilis the other day?
It turned out that not only was he spreading syphilis, but he was also stealing money here and there.
After eating the rotten bread, I got cured of my syphilis and went to the cell. I don’t know if it was because the police officers saved their face, or maybe it was the police chief, or maybe it was just Liston’s face, but the treatment wasn’t that bad.
“Isn’t there a case of murder?”
Liston said to that.
I wonder if there could be anything more inappropriate to say as the first line at the police station… … .
“that… … “You don’t want to turn yourself in, do you?”
“What are you talking about! To the honorable doctor.”
“Since you’re talking about murder… … “What on earth is going on?”
“We just took a dead body…” … .”
No, no.
There could be more inappropriate things to say.
A crazy person mentions a body after a murder?
“Hey police officer.”
I couldn’t do it like this.
As an Asian, it is really burdensome to talk directly to the police, but I don’t want to go to jail just for coming with them.
“ah… … “Say it.”
The other person looked at my face like any other British person, and his face became extremely sad.
Of course, I couldn’t cross the line any further because Liston was next to me.
If I were alone… … .
He could have been imprisoned for talking to him.
During this period, England… … .
Really… … .
“We are going to perform an autopsy.”
“The autopsy… … ? I won’t be able to give you money because I don’t have a budget… … ?”
The same goes for not spending money on autopsies.
It would be a completely different story if a higher-ranking person was the victim… … .
There were very few cases where such a person went wrong in the first place.
On the contrary, it was a common occurrence in London at least during this period for people to die.
I’m dying all the time, really?
“it’s okay. “We will do it for free.”
“Hmm.”
free.
In London, free meant fraud.
Naturally, the officer’s face was gradually getting worse.
Liston then stepped forward.
“I don’t want to call him a minister, but if we leave that body in our hospital, we will dissect it.”
“ah… … that… … hmm.”
When I heard that it wasn’t free, my face softened a bit.
I don’t think it was a story that would make the police blush, but… … .
It shouldn’t have been seen through 21st century eyes.
This is the 19th century.
It was a time of barbarians who claimed to be civilized people.
“I see.”
“Good.”
“Yes, that’s good. It just so happened that it worked out well… … A report has been received. Let’s go.”
“Oh oh.”
As soon as the verbal contract was concluded, we went to the murder scene.
I’m definitely a doctor… … .
I’m trying to save people… … .
I don’t know how things ended up like this, but that’s how it happened.
