Dark-Haired British Doctor - Chapter 108



Only Noblemtl

Episode 108: Suddenly [2]

Snap.

The slums we entered with the police had a truly terrible appearance.

It was to the point where people could possibly live in a place like this.

It occurred to me that Marxism was not born in this era for no reason.

As it turned out, he was wrong… … .

Anyway, it was understandable that I thought this wasn’t right.

“Move!”

“Hey.”

Of course, for most people in the 19th century, this was just a natural sight.

It was said that I was the only one lost in thought.

The police swung their clubs around and chased away the gathered onlookers.

Although they were good-looking spectators, their appearance was not good at all.

It wouldn’t be awkward even if there were one or two murderers among them.

“This way.”

Anyway, we were able to go inside only after we chased away the people who had gathered in front of the house.

I don’t know if I can call this home… … .

The floor was dirt, as if they hadn’t even thought about making it at all, and the roof was made by clumsily tying together discarded waste wood just to protect it from rain.

“here.”

“Um… … “I got stabbed in the stomach.”

“yes. “I think so.”

It was dark inside.

Since there were no windows, it had to be that way.

Moreover, the weather was gloomy today, so I couldn’t see anything.

The police officer was barely able to inspect the body with a lantern.

No, wait… … .

corpse… … ?

“excuse me.”

I instinctively stepped forward.

“Why but?”

The police officer inside showed a strange reaction, probably because he couldn’t see my face.

what… … Even if I had seen her face, it wouldn’t have mattered much.

Because Liston is there.

Besides, that wasn’t important right now.

blood… … It looks like blood is oozing out now.

“This wound here. “The blood coming out of here is so red.”

“It’s natural that blood is red.”

“no no. It’s not like that. “If you look closely, isn’t there a place where a water fountain gushes out?”

It didn’t come out of the boat.

Strictly speaking, it was coming from the side of the stab wound on my stomach.

This was possible because there were arteries in the area where fat was originally located.

If you go in first, you will see things like this often, and since I only went in once or twice, I had a lot of experience.

“what are you saying… … Is this something you want to do?”

As I began to wander in front of the body, the police officer who came with me spoke with a dissatisfied look on his face.

It was worth it.

If it is a body, it would be right for the police to examine it first.

Isn’t an autopsy something that can only be done after the body has been moved?

But that only happened when the woman in front of me died.

“This person is alive.”

“huh? What are you talking about? “I lost so much blood.”

“Yes, your complexion is this pale.”

At my words, the original police officer held his lantern closer to the woman.

It was definitely as pale as he said.

but… … .

When do you think people become pale?

When you die?

No, it was like that back then, but it could have just been if there was less blood.

A person can turn pale just by using rude language.

“uh… … .”

look at me

Because the lamp is too close, the patient’s expression changes a bit.

“Just put this away first. “I got burned.”

“uh… … “How can you be so pale?”

“How can I shed so much blood?”

Should I say I am fortunate?

It seemed like he could still feel the pain.

Or maybe it was a reaction to too bright light… … .

Whatever happened, it wasn’t dead.

In the first place, the fact that blood was still pouring out of that large artery in the abdomen meant that the systolic blood pressure was maintained to a certain level.

“How can someone not die from such wounds?”

“her.”

“Unbelievable.”

I hoped only the police would be surprised, but everyone who came with me was surprised.

Liston just folded his arms and didn’t react much, so I thought he was better because he was a professor, but now I see that wasn’t the case.

“I’m going to die anyway.”

He was pouring out curses.

that is… … .

Is that what a doctor would say in front of a patient right now?

Even if he said it alone as if he was monologuing to God, it’s a strange thing to say… … .

Even other people are listening.

Above all, Liston is a man with a high reputation and a greed for fame, so I couldn’t understand why he would say something like that in front of the police.

“You hurt your stomach. “If this happens, there’s nothing I can do about it.”

“no… … Let’s go first. “To the hospital.”

“My intestines are coming out, too.”

“No, but shouldn’t we try something?”

However, as I listened to the story, I began to understand.

At least in medicine at this time, weren’t pears considered a taboo area?

If I had a disease that seemed to require surgery, especially since the only surgery I could do was amputation, I just wanted to die without pain.

No, really, they just prayed at the hospital… … .

Could you give me some medicine?

Anyway, as I was surprised for a moment by the limitations of the times, Liston started making a fuss.

“Surely Joseon wouldn’t say they could save a patient like this?”

Shipbuilding… … .

Honestly, I don’t know, me too.

Maybe he could have been saved?

When I watched a movie that was supposed to be physiognomy, I got moles on my face.

I don’t know how old it is, but I also used a sword… … They do suturing and everything?

“Yes, it is in the records. Of course, it’s just a record… … To be honest, I don’t know if it’s possible. But I’m still alive, so I have to do something.”

Of course, contrary to what I thought, the snout was already spinning.

It’s a record.

What records are there?

It’s been a while since the lump came out when I opened it, and at this point, I was worried that I might have developed a false sense of humor.

“Then let’s go. scene. This patient lived. Wouldn’t it be better to save him and ask something?”

“Can’t you just ask me now?”

“Is it bleeding like this?”

“If we’re not going to be able to save him anyway, wouldn’t it be right to hurry up and ask for revenge?”

The worry was short-lived.

Fuck you guys.

Irrespective of whether it’s a lie or not, it’s better than these guys.

How can you take revenge on someone who is clearly alive by pretending they are dead?

“Come on, this way.”

“No, Professor!”

“first… … Let’s try. “Isn’t that the right way?”

“thing… … “He said he was going to die.”

“What did you say?”

“No, no.”

Fortunately, Liston’s trust in Joseon medicine was enormous.

Honestly, at this point, you might have noticed that it’s lame… … .

It could have been that they decided to just pass it on like this.

Anyway, as long as he cooperated, there could be no obstruction.

Thanks to this, we were able to quickly load the patient into the carriage and head to the hospital.

The officers followed us to the hospital, except for two.

All right.

All right.

I thought I had gotten used to the carriage, but that didn’t seem to be the case as I just got on with the patient.

I’m shaking like crazy all the time, so I guess that’s the case… … .

It was too narrow.

“Should we leave it like this?”

“I can’t help it. And what… … “Wouldn’t it hurt more if I left it like this?”

Ignorant people are brave enough to shout loudly, but… … .

No, he probably fell while being stabbed by a knife.

If you hit something, wouldn’t your posture be important?

Moreover, in a situation where blood was shed like this, lying down straight was quite important in maintaining blood pressure.

“Yes… … Do I have to lift my leg like this?”

“uh. “That is the way to save the patient.”

“why?”

“Once you get in, just listen.”

“Huh.”

“If you’re dissatisfied, you can walk away like you and Colin did.”

“No, no.”

If the head or heart is up, wouldn’t more blood, which is already insufficient, come in?

If blood doesn’t go to the head, the brain will die, so trying to fix it somewhere else is pointless, and if blood doesn’t go to the heart, blood won’t go anywhere else, so it was the same thing.

So I had Joseph lift his leg.

If you do it like that… … A little of the blood that had accumulated in my legs will come down.

The best thing would be a blood transfusion… … .

-Blood transfusion? That is something forbidden by the Vatican. Blood is life, but how can it be… … .

It wasn’t easy because our Dr. Liston was faithful in some strange ways.

It’s unclear what to say about Joseon… … .

‘You’re the only one who believes, Blundell!’

The good news was that Blundell was a believer in blood transfusions.

The unfortunate thing is that they keep trying mixed blood transfusions… … .

That was something I had to figure out for now.

The priority now was to examine the patient’s wounds.

“Hmm… … .”

“Hmm.”

I don’t know if Liston felt the same way, but he was holding a lamp to illuminate the patient’s wounds.

What I’m saying is that you’re looking at the exact same place as me… … .

But that doesn’t mean we really see the same thing.

“You stabbed me twice.”

What should Liston say… … .

That’s not to say he wasn’t a great doctor.

Considering the limitations of his time, he was a great person.

But I can’t believe I’m feeling something like that while watching this, this is it.

‘The depth is approximately 4cm or more… … The intestines are sticking out, but when you look at them with the naked eye, it doesn’t look like anything has burst.’

If I had sterile gloves, I would try fumbling around with them, but that would be impossible… … .

“Would you like to take a look inside here?”

ah.

Our Liston.

I didn’t even wash my hands… … .

‘Let’s clean it hard later…’ … .’

If you think about it positively, there is no way the criminal would have washed the knife before stabbing him anyway.

Any decent knife would be cleaner than your hands, but… … .

Do I have to wash it anyway?

“Oh, your intestines seem to be fine?”

You seem fine? Fuck this.

But since there was nothing wrong with the eyeballs, this was also true.

Yes, it’s fine.

This meant that the patient’s chances of survival were greatly increased.

‘furthermore… … Even though I rummaged around, there was barely any blood coming out of the inside. That means… … .’

When I first discovered it, blood had accumulated in the abdominal cavity, which seemed to be due to blood leaking from the belly skin.

Of course, it was impossible to be certain.

It’s usually misunderstood… … .

Sometimes, when a blood vessel is cut, the bleeding stops like this.

I don’t know if it will stop forever, but it will definitely open again.

“We’re all here!”

Anyway, we arrived at the hospital.

Immediately take the patient to the operating room… … So, I headed to the classroom.

This also needs to be improved in some way, but it is still a long way off.

“First of all, water! “Give me water!”

“this?”

“You madman. “I have to boil it and serve it to you!”

Moreover, even the boiled water was not prepared in advance.

That was because there wasn’t a single nurse under my influence yet.

No, from the beginning the nurse’s domain was limited to bedside nursing.

Surgery is only the domain of doctors… … .

‘Oh, those bastards.’

Aren’t those doctors just quacks?

Amman, that’s right. Take out the water from the fountain?

Are you willing to let people die?

“Let’s wash our hands first!”

“huh? “It hurts.”

“It hurts less than a patient! “At least wear gloves and clean it!”

“Uh, sure.”

Liston was equally frustrated.

Even if it’s just practice, I think I’ll get really tired… … .

“eww… … .”

The patient also had to be saved.
