When April arrives, the entire Northern Hemisphere warms up.

However, for the city of London, the temperature difference between the four seasons of the year is not huge, but whenever it rains, it can be a headache: cold, damp and annoying.

"Smack!"

Slam the door shut, when The Lancet? The magazine's Edward editor put away his umbrella and saw the soaked cuffs of his trousers, and his mood suddenly became bad. The temperature was quite low today, and he had to endure the clammy cold of his calves and ankles all morning, which was definitely not pleasant.

"Good morning, Edward."

"Good morning, Mr. Fass!"

Edward quickly straightened up and greeted respectfully.

"Huh? I'm drenched. ”

Seeing the water on Edward's shoulders and the wet hem of his trousers, Mr. Fass asked with concern, and then waved his hand, "Hurry up and wipe it with a towel, but don't catch a cold." ”

After two years of adaptation, Edward is now one of the main players in The Lancet. Being a top student at the Edinburgh Medical School and passionate about editing made Edward's progress skyrocket. And the medical papers of this era are not as complicated and elaborate as more than a hundred years later, so two or three years is enough for him to get rid of his rookie status. Therefore, in addition to Mr. Graham, who has always admired him, the boss, Mr. Fass, is also very optimistic about this young man, and he spares no effort in cultivating him.

After thanking Mr. Fass, Edward walked briskly to his desk and picked up a dry towel to clean up.

"Edward, this is your letter for today."

No sooner had he cleaned up than Mr. Graham placed a stack of letters on his desk.

"Thank you, sir."

His esteemed Mr. Graham helped to get the letter. Edward quickly stood up and thanked him. But the moment he looked up and saw Mr. Graham, the young editor's heart suddenly struck, because at this time Mr. Graham's expression was a little wrong, as if he was a little unhappy, and he looked at himself with some unpleasant meaning.

"What's going on?"

When he was stunned, Mr. Graham had already turned away.

Edward, who was a little dazed in his heart, blinked. Sit down in your place. It was a long time before Edward got back to work and checked his letters. After a long career as an editor, there are naturally familiar authors, many people like to contribute directly to the editors they are familiar with, and now Edward also has a small group of supporters. Of course, in terms of quality and quantity, he and an old editor like Graham cannot be compared, but every time he receives a letter directly to himself, his heart is still slowly filled.

Merely......

When Edward flipped through the last letter. His pupils shrank suddenly, and an expression of ecstasy suddenly appeared on his face!

Heinz General Hospital, New York, USA!

After seeing this line of words, Edward only felt that his whole person was blind, and his heart instantly pounded wildly.

This address, of course, he knows what it means!

In fact, the entire editorial office of The Lancet knows the address, and they all know that the hospital was built just last year. But because of the presence of one person, everyone firmly remembered the name of this hospital. Everybody knows. In the past few years, there have been only two hottest topics in the whole of Europe: surgical procedures, which have drastically reduced mortality rates, and sulfonamides, which can treat serious illnesses such as pneumonia and meningitis!

The maturity and popularization of new surgical disinfection technologies, including the widespread use of isolation gowns, gloves, masks and caps, has led to a sharp reduction in the incidence of postoperative infections in surgical patients, leaving even disinfection pioneers like Liszt stunned, while the application and promotion of local anesthesia and appendectomy. In Edward's view, what is more important is the surgical concepts proposed and perfected by Mr. Huntelaar, such as the theory of incision selection, the theory of surgical field cleaning, and so on. The advent of these new technologies seems to have made the surgeon an instant a profession alongside that of an internal medicine physician.

Not to mention sulfonamides. Not only clinicians, but even ordinary people know this "miracle drug" that can save lives in critical moments! ”

And these two topics, both of which are related to that John? Mr. Huntelaar related!

When Mr. Huntelaar chose to leave Europe and return to North America, he wrote to the editorial board of The Lancet, which had a good relationship, to explain the general situation. Of course, this choice has also made them feel sorry for countless times: a young physician with obvious bright prospects has left the medical center of the world and chose to go to that backward continent, who can guarantee that he will continue to stand at the forefront of medicine in the future?

They haven't heard the name in academia for at least a whole year.

"Perhaps, the commotion caused by that novel counts as one?"

Suddenly remembering the tragic incident that happened not long ago, Edward couldn't help but shake his head secretly. In addition to his admiration, he was also grateful to Mr. Huntelaar for inviting him to Berlin, so when he heard about it and saw the many criticisms of Mr. Huntelaar, he was also quite sorry......

"So ......"

Grabbing the envelope with both hands, Edward took a deep breath, trying to calm his mind.

The feeling in the hands is heavy.

If it was just an ordinary letter, perhaps it was Mr. Huntelaar's greetings to himself, but the letter was obviously of unusual thickness and weight, then there was only one possibility to deduce: it contained Mr. Huntelaar's latest research papers, and more than one! Thinking of the "feat" of the other party who once took out eight papers in one go and handed them to "The Lancet" and "German Medicine" respectively, it is self-evident what was contained in it.

It was at this moment that he finally knew why Mr. Graham's face was not good-looking.

The editor of The Lancet who first came into contact with Mr. Huntelaar was undoubtedly Mr. Graham, whom Edward met only later. But now that the other party has a new research result, it is not sent to Mr. Graham or the editorial department, but to himself, a young editor, how can this not make the old editor sad?

But......

"Anyway, this is my chance!"

Clenching his fists hard, Edward quickly brushed aside the inexplicable guilt.

No editor would reject an author like Mr. Huntelaar, or a paper on appendectomy and new sterilization techniques, and Edward knew that. As for Mr. Graham, who usually takes good care of himself, Edward can only secretly say sorry in his heart.

"Tear up!"

After figuring it out, Edward tore open the envelope in his hand without hesitation, and couldn't wait to look through the contents.

Sure enough, as he expected.

In addition to a brief letter in which Mr. Huntelaar expressed greetings that had not been seen for many days, and stated the general situation, there were five papers in the envelope!

Five whole articles!

Edward was not at all surprised by this figure.

Although it is rare for one person to come up with five papers at a time, John once had a past of eight papers at once, so Edward, who was present at the time, naturally did not feel much of it. But what surprised him was that the first paper he saw turned out to be about blood type!

After a cursory look, Edward knew that he was definitely lucky this time!

Now blood genetics is one of the hottest topics in Europe, especially the occurrence of two family tragedies, which has made many ordinary people's eyes focus on it. And as the proposer of this theory, John? Mr. Huntelaar's paper is so timely!

"Hoo ......"

After taking a few deep breaths, Edward barely managed to suppress the tumbling in his chest.

"What are the other four?"

After calming down, Edward immediately remembered the other four papers and couldn't help but quickly flip through them. It's just that after reading it in a hurry this time, Edward's eyes suddenly became confused: "This, these diseases are really caused by the lack of vitamins in the human body?" If this is the case, does it not mean that Mr. Huntelaar has created another system of medical theory? God, this is crazy......" (To be continued......
