Chapter 517 The Truth of the Tragedy
"Okay, his vascular bridge is sewn up. Lydia, where is the steel rod to fix the bone?"
"Just sew it up for him."
"what?!"
You have to know that the patient's neck was not only cut open, but the fetus' shoulder was also severely fractured. Logically speaking, since they were already on the operating table, wouldn't it be easier to solve both problems at once?
"There are too many patients. The time we spend putting steel bars on his broken bones is enough for us to save another patient, stop the bleeding and then continue to treat the next patient. Only those who survive are eligible for follow-up treatment. Sew up the wound for me and push him out for me."
At this time, Lydia has changed from her usual gentleness. Now she looks like a machine that can only treat patients. Although it is very bad to say this, but... this is really the best state under the current circumstances.
"Can you accept that?"
Seeing that Lucino was stunned, Lydia asked again that if Lucino could not accept it, she would drive him out even if she was short of one person. Lydia would rather be short of one person than add an indecisive guy, which was more deadly.
"Yes, sure, I can accept that."
But unfortunately, Lucchino was never indecisive. He was just shocked by Lydia's sudden change.
.................................................. ........................
After the operation, when Lydia was ready to welcome the next patient, she found that Percy had gathered some patients with minor injuries and some passers-by in the corridor.
It turned out that there were people bleeding everywhere in Lydia's clinic, and there were not enough doctors and nurses, so Percy simply came up with this idea -
He gathered together all the people who were still able to move but had no professional knowledge, taught them some simple wound bandaging methods, and asked them to help treat other injured people.
This was a good idea, and everyone who could move joined in, even the two sisters Ivy and Edith who had been standing in the corner.
But the two of them took the makeshift medical basket that Percy handed to them, looked at the injured in front of them, and dared not move.
The poor man in front of him was almost completely covered in blood. He just sat on the ground, looking straight ahead with lifeless eyes. It was obvious that he had not yet recovered from the shock he had just suffered.
Ivy and Edith just stood there, not daring to move. They didn't know how to start, and they were afraid that they might make something wrong and increase the pain of the man in front of them.
"It's okay, girls. You have to learn to be brave. If you don't do it, this man will probably bleed to death. Come on, you can do it."
Lydia suddenly passed by them, but just hurriedly, and then left this sentence. Lydia still had to continue operating on other seriously injured patients, and there was no way she could stop and stay to comfort Edith and Ivy.
With Lydia's comfort, Ivy took a few deep breaths and finally dared to start.
Ivy didn't even know how she did it, but when she came to her senses, the man's wound had been bandaged by her.
Until then, the man seemed to finally come back to his senses. He looked at the girl in front of him who was bandaging his wound and said,
"Thank you."
.................................................. ........................
Just when Lydia was about to go crazy from being busy, an English police officer stopped her.
"Well, we have received reliable information that when the dangerous goods exploded, the man who brought it over was also injured, so he might be among the injured. Can you notify other doctors and nurses to pay more attention to him?"
This time it wasn't really the English police who were useless, but the dangerous goods. It took less than a minute from the time they left the man's hands to the time they exploded.
There were many people in the square at the time, but it was impossible for everyone to be staring in that direction, so it was not easy to find witnesses.
Besides, there is no so-called surveillance in this era, so it is even more difficult to find that guy.
"I see. I'll let everyone know."
After saying that, Lydia turned around and left. After all, there was no time to waste at this time. If there was anything important to say, she would just stand there and listen, and then leave quickly.
.................................................. ........................
"Get out of the way!!!" Percy suddenly yelled, asking the doctor who was covering the patient's wound in front of him to take his hands away.
"What?! OH MY GOD!!!!"
It's no wonder that the doctor was so surprised, because when he turned his head and saw what Percy was holding in his hand, he subconsciously took his hand away, and then he watched Percy put that thing on the patient's wound.
That is a piece of red-hot iron...
Oh my God, this doctor almost thought he had traveled back to the Middle Ages. Only doctors in the most barbaric periods would use this method to stop bleeding.
But it must be said that this method is indeed effective. The bleeding that the doctor had tried every possible way to stop was stopped by Percy using this simplest and most brutal method.
It looks really scary. If there is a choice, no one would want to use this method to stop bleeding, but is there a choice now?
No!
Well, as long as it can stop the bleeding, it is a good method.
.................................................. ........................
At this moment, another injured person whom Ivy was responsible for bandaging suddenly recalled the scene at that time. He quietly pulled Ivy over and pointed to a person while talking beside her ear..........
"Are you sure, dear?"
Ivy told Lydia about this immediately, but Lydia felt that the man didn't seem to match the image described by the police officers...
Remember what the man who initially pushed the injury into the clinic on a cart said?
"There's a guy with some filthy money,"
Prove that the other person should be a wealthy person.
This was later confirmed by the police officers' words, and they proved that the other party was indeed a rich man. But looking at the guy that Ivy pointed to Lydia, he looked like a construction worker.
Moreover, there were many injured people at the scene who were in a state of shock. It was also inevitable that the guy who identified the murderer to Ivy might have been frightened and his brain was in a confused state, so he mistook someone else for the murderer.
But despite saying that, Lydia still arranged for the doctors and nurses to pay a little attention to him.
.................................................. ........................
Percy also heard about this from other nurses, so it seems like he knows this person!
"Charles Holt, why are you here too? Were you at the construction site?"
In this case, Lydia also said that the glass that caused the mass casualties was originally intended for construction. In this case, the presence of Charles Holt, a construction worker, does not seem to be a particularly strange thing.
But there was something wrong with Charles Holt's condition. If he was just sitting there because he was frightened, this state was too wrong. Rather than being frightened, he seemed more like he was feeling regretful.
"I need you to put your hand over the wound on your neck."
Charles Holt's wound was neither serious nor mild. Although it was on his neck and the wound was bleeding, it wouldn't be a big problem as long as he covered it with gauze.
But no matter what Percy said now, Charles Holt kept crying and shaking his head, and he was unwilling to do it no matter what Percy said.
"You really shouldn't have saved me. Just let me die like this."
What on earth happened that could make him feel so guilty that it overcame his instinct to survive?
To be honest, Percy really hoped deep down that Charles Holt was not the murderer of this tragedy. He was very talented, but he was just a construction worker, just like himself in the past. He could empathize with Charles, so he didn't want Charles to do such a thing.
But looking at Charles' current state, Bossi knew that no matter what he said, the other party would not do it, so he asked the nurse to call Lucino over.
Do you remember how everyone met Charles? Luchino used the power of the manor owner to transform himself into a woman. Now he went to the street with everyone to help Joke complete the punishment of the big adventure - pretending to be Aquaman.
do you remember?
Although Qiu Ke was treated badly by everyone at that time.
But after the joke was over, Luchino still maintained Lukina's appearance and walked on the street, and then Charles's aircraft fell from the building and hit Lukina in the chest. That's how they got to know each other.
Although Charles had always thought that Luchino was a woman, Lukina, and now Luchino was Luchino, a man, but this lie could be covered up in some way, such as they were brother and sister.
However, it turned out that Charles really believed this lie. In fact, it was not his fault that he believed it so easily.
After all, from his point of view, Mr. Luchino and Miss Lukina looked exactly like two people with such similar appearances. It would be a joke to say that they were not related by blood.
With Luchino's comfort, they finally got the truth out of Charles.
turn out to be.........
With the funding from Miss Lukina, Charles could finally start to concentrate on researching his aircraft, but even so, he would occasionally return to the construction site. He really enjoyed the feeling of standing high up.
However, it was precisely because of this that the tragedy that followed occurred...
Charles once took a small model and test-flew his aircraft in the square, and the result was very successful.
However, this happened to be noticed by a rich man.
The rich man offered to buy Charles's flying machine.
However, Charles refused without hesitation because the aircraft was still under experimentation and the successful test flight of a model did not mean the successful test flight of the finished product.
No matter how much the rich man pays, it won't work.
But the conversation between the rich man and Charles was overheard by several of Charles' other workers.
Charles still lived in the old attic, which meant that the lock of the door could be easily pried open. When Charles was not at home, the construction workers stole his semi-finished products and sold them to the rich man at a high price.
And everyone knows what happened next...
When Charles found out, he punched his co-workers hard and learned from them that the rich man wanted to test fly in a crowded square because it would attract more people's attention.
Although Charles ran to the rich man as fast as he could to stop him, it was too late.
This is also the reason why Charles was mistaken for the murderer by passers-by, because Charles was very close to the rich man at the time, and the aircraft flew out from the direction where the two of them were. Charles also looked a little fierce, the kind of person who would turn his head to look again when walking on the road, so it was natural that he would be mistaken for the murderer by others.
.................................................. ........................
Although this incident had nothing to do with Charles from beginning to end and he was also a victim, he always felt very guilty, which was why he gave up on himself and thought he might as well just die.
But fortunately, Luchino comforted her, "My sister has been looking forward to seeing you again. Please, even if I beg you, don't die before you see her again, okay?"
It must be said that Lucchino made the right bet to some extent.
He knew that someone like Charles, who felt guilty even though the fault was not his, was definitely a very loyal person. Sure enough, he obediently picked up the gauze and pressed the wound on his neck.
