Purple lamp is the name of ultraviolet lamp during the Republic of China.

In 1904, Dr. Heraeus of Germany invented the ultraviolet lamp. Beginning in 1920, the Western medical community began to study the use of ultraviolet lamps to disinfect the air, and by January of this year (1936), several German, French and British hospitals began to use ultraviolet lamps to disinfect the air in the operating room.

Shanghai Guangci Hospital, although not the Chinese government leader President Chang is not welcomed, but it is the largest hospital in the Far East during this period, basically it can be said to be the first choice of Shanghai bigwigs and Nanjing dignitaries to see a doctor, plus the French Concession Board of Directors every year to Guangci Hospital hundreds of thousands of silver dollars, so the medical equipment of Guangci Hospital at this time is not much inferior to the most advanced hospitals in Europe, almost following the footsteps of several large hospitals in Europe, in February this year, That is, a few days before the murder and theft of the ancestral shrine of Cao Huowang, deputy director of the Hangzhou Civil Affairs Department, the operating room was equipped with the most advanced ultraviolet disinfection lamp at that time.

The reason why Lin Jiangbei knew the news was because Guangci Hospital promoted the technology of using ultraviolet light to disinfect the air in the operating room as a gimmick in the newspapers.

However, Colonel Price obviously didn't pay much attention to the local news in Shanghai, and he didn't know much about the progress of medical science, and when he heard Lin Jiangbei say the words "purple light" in his mouth, he couldn't help but laugh and said, "Purple light? Do you mean a bulb with a layer of purple pigment applied to the glass of an incandescent bulb? Then you don't need to go to Guangci Hospital, there should be one in the warehouse of our headquarters. Last year, for Christmas, there were a lot of colored light bulbs, many of which were purple. ”

Lin Jiangbei couldn't laugh at Colonel Price's answer, but he also knew that in this era, ultraviolet lamps were still a relatively unpopular instrument, unlike in the previous life, which was almost known to passers-by. So even as the commander of the Fourth Expeditionary Force Command, it is not uncommon for Colonel Price not to understand ultraviolet lamps.

"Colonel Price, the violet lamp I'm talking about is not a purple glass bulb, but a hospital instrument that specializes in emitting ultraviolet rays." Lin Jiangbei explained to Colonel Price.

"It's a medical device, huh?" Colonel Price laughed awkwardly twice and said, "Can I only borrow it from Guangci Hospital?" Does Yan Chai Hospital have this kind of equipment? ”

Yan Chai Hospital is located in the Anglo-American area of the Public Concession, under the protection of the Fourth Expeditionary Force, while Guangci Hospital is located in the French Concession area, in contrast, Colonel Price naturally preferred to borrow equipment from Yan Chai Hospital.

"I really don't know if there is a Renji Hospital," Lin Jiangbei said, "but Guangci Hospital, I'm sure there must be." ”

"Alright then!" Colonel Price nodded, "Since Guangci Hospital must have it, then don't waste much time, I'll send someone to Guangci Hospital to borrow it!" ”

Seeing that Colonel Price didn't ask him what he was borrowing the purple lamp for, he agreed, and Lin Jiangbei couldn't help nodding secretly. is worthy of being the commander of the Fourth Expeditionary Force, Colonel Price is really atmospheric, he is really suspicious, and he is not suspicious!

"Colonel Price, it's best for me to borrow this purple light with the people you sent. Because this kind of instrument is relatively sophisticated, I am afraid that the people you sent will not know how to protect it, and if it is broken, it may not be possible to find a second one in a hurry, and then it will probably affect my interrogation of Clyde Mok!" Lin Jiangbei said.

Colonel Price immediately nodded again when he heard this, and said, "Mr. Ren, please wait a moment." ”

Then he confessed to the guards: "Go and call Major Adriana Morgan, the chief of the medical section of the headquarters, to me!" ”

The guards answered yes and took the order.

After about twenty minutes, a tall female officer with wet hair appeared in Colonel Price's office, she first glanced at Lin Jiangbei, and then said to Colonel Price with a dissatisfied face: "Price, don't you know that the old lady is taking a bath at this time?" What's the matter with calling the old lady over at this time? ”

"Major Morgan!" Colonel Price was obviously very dissatisfied with Adriana's attitude, he pointed at Lin Jiangbei with his hand, and said to her solemnly: "This is Mr. Jackson Ren, a criminal investigation expert sent by the Admiralty. Now because of the need to handle the case, he wants to go to Guangci Hospital to borrow their purple light. As the head of the medical department, you often deal with Guangci Hospital, so I plan to send you over to help Mr. Ren borrow the purple light. ”

Adriana didn't care at all about Colonel Price's serious attitude, but turned her head to look at Lin Jiangbei with interest, and while looking up and down, she asked Lin Jiangbei, "Purple light?" Mr. Ren, I don't know what you are going to do with this purple lamp? ”

Lin Jiangbei didn't expect that Colonel Price didn't ask him what he was using the purple lamp for, but Adriana, the head of the medical section, wanted to ask questions.

He replied very unhappily: "Didn't Colonel Price tell you just now, it's the need to handle the case!" ”

As if he was afraid that Adriana would ask something, Colonel Price hurriedly said on the side: "Major Morgan, Mr. Ren's need for purple light is indeed a need to handle the case, and the specific purpose, you don't need to ask again!" ”

Hearing Colonel Price say this, Adriana withdrew her gaze from Lin Jiangbei and said to Colonel Price: "Hehe, Price, don't be nervous, the old lady is just curious." ”

Then she stroked her wet hair and said to Colonel Price: "Since it is official business, you can let this Mr. Ren wait for a while, and after the old lady goes back to dry her hair, she will accompany him to Guangci Hospital." ”

After saying this, Adriana ignored Colonel Price's reaction, and walked away with high-heeled leather boots in rhythmic steps.

In the office, Lin Jiangbei looked at Adriana's back, and smiled ambiguously at Colonel Price: "Colonel Price, if I didn't know in advance that you were the commander of the Fourth Expeditionary Force, and she was the head of the medical section of the headquarters, I really don't know who is superior and who is subordinate between you and Adriana!" ”

"Mr. Ren," Colonel Price quickly explained, "the relationship between me and Adriana is definitely not what you think. ”

Seeing Lin Jiangbei's disbelief, Colonel Price gritted his teeth, and then stomped his foot and said, "Since there is such in-depth intelligence cooperation between us, it doesn't matter if I tell you." Adriana was only the head of the medical department, but she was a high school classmate of Franklin Delano Roosevelt Jr.! ”
