Sorry, it's another chapter that I forgot to post, make up for it.

……

When he returned home, John immediately called Hans, the housekeeper.

"I'm sorry, sir!"

Facing John's expectant gaze, the butler Hans shook his head a little ashamedly and said, "Although I finally found the boy who delivered the letter, he only met a young lady by chance on the way, and the other party gave him five cents to send the letter...... I'm afraid it's hard to find Miss Philip. ”

John, of course, was very disappointed, but he sighed and asked, "So, you can be sure of Miss Philip?" ”

"Yes, sir."

Nodding, Hans said without hesitation, "According to the child's description, he is very similar to Miss Philip in height and appearance. ”

"Well, thank you."

Waving his hand a little tiredly, John was about to let the butler go about his own business, when he suddenly spoke again: "Mr. Elber, please continue to help me find someone...... Well, you can pay some money to find someone, and I'd love to see Miss Philip again! ”

"Yes, sir."

After a slight pause, Hans saluted and left.

After the butler had left the study, John got up and went to the window, and looked at his garden.

After a few years, he got the news of Miss Philip again, which made John a little excited, and he couldn't wait to meet his former tutor. It's a pity that the other party doesn't seem to have the idea of "reuniting" with him, and he is hiding from himself like a few years ago. This worries John that, judging from the contents of the letter, Miss Philip is in a very unhealthy state of mind......

How Hans went to Miss Philip, John didn't care too much.

All he needs is results. Just wait quietly for the housekeeper's return, and after the weekend, he will have to continue to work in the hospital.

On Monday morning, it's still time to go out of the clinic.

One patient with right lower quadrant pain was admitted to the hospital for further examination and diagnosis, after dealing with two patients who wanted to buy cheap medicine, and then three more ordinary patients. John's morning's work was over. The results made him quite happy, at least as his reputation grew, and the number of outpatient clinics at Heinz General Hospital increased. Now it has properly exceeded 150 people, and I believe that when the half-price time of the drug is over, there will be no problem with the daily outpatient volume exceeding 200 people.

That's a pretty good number.

Don't look at the future generations, any hospital can have thousands of outpatient visits every day. Those super hospitals are more than 10,000 people. But in New York in 1888, even though the city was already large, going to the hospital was still not a common practice: those who had the money were more inclined to have a doctor in their homes, while the poor could not afford it......

After going to lunch by himself, John returned to his office.

By the afternoons of the week, he had devoted all his time to desk work, especially promising Ehrlich that he would have to write out some basic theories in two weeks: even for John. It's not an easy thing to do either. After all, it's 1888, and immunology is just in its infancy. John had to grasp the dividing line between the theories and the "inferences", and he had to figure out what he could tell Ehrlich now and what he needed to slow down a bit......

"Gotta get it!"

"Sir, that, that Mr. Wesley is here!"

Miss Brown pushed open the door to her office and whispered in embarrassment. She vaguely knew that Mr. Huntelaar didn't seem to like Mr. Hawkins and Mr. Wesley very much, but the other party's dress and bearing made it impossible to refuse forcefully, so she had to knock on the office door carefully.

"Mr. Wesley?"

John's brows furrowed, and for a moment he couldn't remember which one the other party was.

What he had just written was in the middle of his head, and being interrupted certainly made John a little unhappy, but after thinking about it for two or three seconds, he remembered who this Mr. Wesley was.

"Let him in!"

After a slight hesitation, John sighed and nodded.

Although he was not interested in finding out what the identity of this Mr. Wesley was, John also knew that the other party should not be an ordinary person, so it was difficult to turn him away. Although he doesn't have to fear anyone now, the other party doesn't have any outrageous requirements, and there's no need to offend, right?

"Good afternoon, Mr. Huntelaar!"

"Good afternoon, Mr. Wesley."

After getting up and saying hello, John's eyes quickly moved behind him - a little boy of five or six years old was standing there with a timid face, looking at John carefully.

Turning and closing the door, Mr. Wesley looked at John and stopped.

"Alas!"

With a long sigh in his heart, John shook his head helplessly, "Mr. Wesley, it seems that you didn't take my last words to heart...... Or do you want me to get you tested? ”

"Yes, Mr. Huntelaar!"

Gritting his teeth, Wesley nodded heavily.

Although he has made up for the relevant knowledge in the past few days, and knows that what John said is very reasonable, without a large number of examples to verify it, the so-called blood group inheritance theory has not been recognized for the time being. Otherwise, the two massacres in Europe would not have provoked such a reaction, and many doctors and scientists have harshly criticized this theory.

But......

The thorn in my heart can't be pulled out!

Looking at the children beside him, Wesley's eyes flashed with a touch of tangle and distress, and then he quickly became firm, and took a few steps forward and whispered beside John: "Mr. Huntelaar, I brought Harry with me today to ask you to test our blood type...... Just check your blood type, okay? ”

"Yes, but ......"

Also looking at the overwhelmed child, John sighed again and said, "Mr. Wesley, have you really thought it through?" You know, once you know the results...... Even if you know that this result has not been verified, you may have to accept it! ”

To be honest, John certainly didn't want to do this test!

The ABO blood group genetic theory is certainly reliable, but John is still a little reluctant in his heart. If in the 21st century, let alone Americans, even the always conservative Chinese have a high acceptance of this kind of thing after seeing and hearing more. But in this day and age, the two tragedies that took place in Europe speak volumes......

"I ...... I'm sure! ”

After inhaling hard, Mr. Wesley finally nodded.

Of course, he knew that once John had identified himself and his son's blood type, the result would be irreversible. If the blood type matches, then the thorn in his heart can be pulled out, but if it does not, even if Mr. Huntelaar emphasizes that this theory has not been proved by sufficient examples......

Nothing will go back to the past!

Looking at the innocence on the face of his son next to him, Wesley's face was filled with pain, but he quickly gritted his teeth and said, "Mr. Huntelaar, can we start now?" ”

"Please wait a moment."

After a deep look at the other party, John nodded and said, "I need a little time to prepare, you know, after I returned to the United States, you were the first to make such a request!" ”

No matter how reluctant he was, John couldn't refuse the other party's request.

At the end of the day, Mr. Wesley has a right to know the truth he needs, even if it's not good for himself or anyone else. As a physician and scientist, John could have informed each other of the possibilities in advance, and could have minimized the impact as little as possible, but there was no way to refuse.

"I can only hope that their blood type matches."

In the process of preparing for the blood group test, John could only helplessly wish.

No matter what happened to the family, the child was innocent after all, and John could only hope that there was no absolute impossibility of his and Mr. Wesley's blood types. In fact, there are only four blood types in the ABO blood group system, and the probability of any situation is quite high, and without determining the mother's blood type, we can only hope that the child's luck will be better......
