"Boom! Boom! ”

"John, what are you thinking?"

At the dining table at Huntelaar's house, old Huntelaar knocked on the table and asked with some dissatisfaction.

From the time he returned home, John had been in a state of contemplation, even at the dinner table, which naturally aroused the displeasure of old Huntelaar. The old man is getting older now, and now he attaches great importance to the time he spends with his grandson every day, so it is natural to be a little unhappy to see John's absent-minded appearance.

"Huh? Oh, nothing. ”

John, who was pondering, was slightly startled, and quickly shook his head a little embarrassed.

What can make him a little absent-minded all day today is naturally the telegram from Berlin, and what Professor Bergman said in the telegram! It's just that John hasn't decided whether to sue old Huntelaar for the time being, because in a sense, he knows his grandfather better now......

However, John's cousin had already caught the attention of old Huntelaar.

The old man saw the hesitation between John's eyebrows, and immediately frowned, put down the knife and fork in his hand and said in a deep voice: "John, if there is anything difficult to decide, just say it, I have lived so many decades longer than you, and my opinions always have some reference value, right?" ”

"Uh......"

Hearing old Huntelaar say this, John hesitated for a moment and then nodded, "Okay grandfather, in fact, I received a telegram from Berlin this morning......"

In the split second just now, John also figured it out.

Things are indeed a bit tricky and difficult for him to decide, so listening to other people's opinions is not necessarily a bad thing, and the person in front of him is the best candidate. And in a sense, the contents of this telegram today are beyond John's comprehension. Perhaps the elder Huntelaar's decades of experience in life could help him make a decision......

After reading the telegram that John handed him, old Huntelaar's expression became a little strange: "John, is this this telegram?" ”

"Yes, Grandpa."

John exhaled softly and nodded.

He looked down at the telegram in his hand, and then looked up at John with a solemn face. Old Huntelaar's expression instantly became strange, and he asked with puzzlement, "John, I don't quite understand. Although this telegram has more content, it seems to be a very simple telegram! The other party is just asking for some ...... Well, some questions about surgery, and invite you to go back to Berlin as much as you can...... Hehe, it seems that this patient must be very noble, or a close relative of Professor Bergman, otherwise he would not have made such an impudent request. ”

In the opinion of old Huntelaar. Professor Bergman's request was indeed very rude.

How far is it from New York to Berlin? Asking John to cross the Atlantic just because of a patient is absolutely excessive. You know, even after putting aside John's net worth and status, I'm afraid no doctor will agree, right?

But......

Old Huntelaar's strange expression gradually dissipated, for he knew his grandson too well, and if it was just such a common request, the boy would have thrown the telegram aside and ignored it. But now the situation is. John still had a solemn face, and he seemed to be quite entangled!

Don't......

"Grandpa. Things may not be as simple as you think! ”

With a faint wry smile, John shook his head and said, "Look at this patient's condition: he is fifty-seven years old this year, and he was found to have a lump in his throat last year, and it is getting bigger and bigger. Just recently, the patient began to feel suffocated and had his trachea cut open. A silver snorkel was inserted...... And more importantly, the attending physician in front of the patient was the Englishman Mackenzie......"

"Uh...... I still don't quite understand! ”

After listening to John's explanation for a long time, old Huntelaar was still at a loss.

Although John tried his best to make it easy to understand, the old Huntelaar, who did not know much about medicine, only knew that the patient's condition should be very strict, and he had invited a doctor from England to come and treat him......

But even so. What does it have to do with John?

"Because of the identity of this patient!"

After hesitating again, John's voice instantly lowered a lot: "If I guessed correctly, this patient should be the crown prince of the German Empire, and his status is very respectable...... "What did you say?!" “

Before John could finish speaking, old Huntelaar's face suddenly changed and he stood up with a pout! "Bang dang!"

At the same time, Hans, the butler who was about to serve food to the two, shook his hands and fell to the ground with the plate he was holding!

"God!"

Old Huntelaar straightened up, stared at a pair of old eyes, and asked in a shocked voice with an expression like a ghost: "Child, you just said that because of whose illness you wrote to ask for your opinion?" You're not mistaken, right? The telegram didn't have the patient's name written on it! ”

couldn't help but roll his eyes, and John repeated helplessly: "Yes, grandfather, I am six or seven percent sure that the patient is noble...... Uh, it should be Frederick. William. Nicklaus. Mr. Karl! Because of that Mr. Mackenzie, I've heard, he happens to be a physician to the royal family......"

After thinking about it for a while, John finally read the other man's name.

"Oh God!"

At this time, not only did the old Huntelaar take a long breath of cold air, but even the butler Hans couldn't help but exclaim, and quickly drew a cross on his chest!

Frederick. William. Nicklaus. Cal!

After a brief shock, neither of them doubted John's judgment, after all, he said that he was only six or seven percent sure. But the condemning gaze immediately turned to John's face—he actually called him ...... What a disrespectful thing to do, sir!

"Okay, okay."

This time, without waiting for old Huntelaar to reprimand himself, John smiled wryly and said, "What should I call this ...... Uh, Frederick. William. Nicklaus. Mr. Carr? Excellency? Or Your Highness? ”

"It's His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

Knocking on the table, old Huntelaar expressed his displeasure with his grandson's casual name.

As people of this era, especially old figures like old Huntelaar, the respect for the royal family is undoubtedly from the heart. The traditional education they received over the years made it impossible for them to be as casual as John. Even now they are Americans. Even the Americans, despite their rejection of the monarchy, still maintain respect for the royal aristocracy, just as the nouveau riche of any era needs to look up to the real aristocracy.

Of course, John? Mr. Huntelaar is definitely an exception!

John would not have any respect or fear for the European royal families and politicians of this era, because he knew very well that it was these damned nobles and politicians who started the First World War more than twenty years later. And it's these damned guys who are letting the ancient nations of the East of the world go through painful ordeals......

"It is now the crown prince of the German Empire, and the crown prince of the Kingdom of Prussia."

Under the eager gaze of old Huntelaar, John shrugged his shoulders and said, "I'm almost certain that the distinguished patient that Professor Bergman spoke of...... It's His Royal Highness the Crown Prince......"

If it weren't for Burgman's solemnity, and his invitation to return to Berlin in a telegram, John might not have thought about the crown prince, for it was a bit of an incredible. But thanks to the welfare of the traverser, when John saw the silver snorkel. He reacted immediately and knew who the patient really was.

The Hundred Days Emperor of History, Frederick. William. Nicklaus. Karl, Frederick III!

Frederick III was the first Prussian prince with a university education, who had fought in the Danish, Austro-Prussian and Franco-Prussian wars, and was supposed to be a very successful prince, but sadly, he developed throat cancer in 1887. Then, perhaps he was misdiagnosed by the British physician Mackenzie, delaying the timing of the operation. Then he died 99 days after ascending to the throne this year.

Although the reputation of the Hundred Days Emperor is not obvious, but his son, the famous Wilhelm II, was a key figure in the First World War, and John, who liked to read online novels in his previous life, is certainly not unfamiliar, so he also knows a little about the Hundred Days Emperor.

Honorable status, a tumor in the larynx, and that silver sonic tube......

Who else could it be if it wasn't the Hundred Days Emperor?!

It is precisely because the identity of the other party is too noble. is also too sensitive, which is why John is so entangled. From the point of view of his heart, he must not want to express an opinion on this, let alone run back to Berlin. Because he was well aware that the future German emperor was very sick and would not live long. It doesn't make much sense to go back on your own.

But if you don't go back......

Bergmann's telegram was certainly not his own idea, and such a serious matter was actually sent by guò telegram to show that it was probably the German imperial family that was already in a state of emergency and rushed to the hospital, so it was sent to him by a professor of surgery at the University of Berlin. After all, in the past two years, Mr. Huntelaar's surgical sterilization technology, local anesthetic technology and appendectomy have been one of the focuses, not to mention the invention of new drugs such as sulfonamides and aspirin - no matter how low-key John usually is, the German royal family can figure out whose industry Heinz Pharmaceutical Company is with a little investigation!

John understood this, and old Huntelaar naturally wouldn't have thought it clearly.

After a brief shock, the old man quickly thought of the crux of the matter, and asked cautiously, "John, the condition of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince...... Very strict? ”

The implication was to ask John if he was unsure.

"Yes, very strict!"

Nodding his head immediately, John said in a deep voice: "If you look at the narrative on the telegram alone, the rest of his life ...... I'm afraid it won't be more than half a year. ”

John was not arrogant, thinking that he would be able to turn things around if he went back, after all, he was just a time-traveler, not an omnipotent miracle doctor, and he was still in 1888. So in a situation like Frederick III, he didn't have the information to try it unless there were medical conditions in the 21st century.

"Sizzle! ……”

After hearing this, old Huntelaar and Hans gasped at the same time!

"It's really troublesome."

After understanding the key to the matter, old Huntelaar also knew why John was so entangled, so after slowly sitting back in his chair, he fell into deep thought like his grandson...... (To be continued......)
