Chapter 12: Murder and Punishment (Part II)

As Cabeline translated these words to Jacques, she didn't know why, but a chill slowly rose from the bottom of her heart.

Speaking of this, Shi Shaoying reached into the left pocket of Jacques's jacket again, and found a four-inch-tall artwork carved from the roots of the Nimes tree from inside, "This root carving is a gift from me and Kabelyn after he rescued a child." Don't look at it, it's not good-looking, but it's a treasure that the child took two months to carve. I had planned to take it back as a gift to my apprentice. But seeing that you were so polite just now, I was afraid that I would be in pain and asked me to smoke in advance to relieve the pain, why do I have to repay the favor and return you a gift?! โ€

Jacques' eyes widened, he really couldn't understand why Shi Shaoying had quietly put such a clumsy handiwork of root carving into his jacket pocket.

Could it be that this is also the etiquette of Chinese in the face of "friends"?!

Shi Shaoying stretched out his hand and pointed to his left rib and asked, "Do you know what organs are here?" โ€

Jacques was seriously injured and the blood rushed up to his throat, he now even felt difficult to breathe, of course there was no way to speak, Shi Shaoying also clearly understood this, so he directly announced the answer without waiting for the other party to answer, and the demeanor he revealed now is still impeccable: "Let's learn together, the scientific name of this part of the human body is the upper abdominal spleen area, our human spleen is in this position, usually the spleen is covered and protected by the ninth and eleventh ribs of the left rib, and my spleen is generally twelve centimeters long and seven centimeters wide, It is four centimeters thick, and the long axis runs diagonally from left to right anteriorly, approximately parallel to the tenth rib. โ€

Speaking of this, Shi Shaoying smiled, he smiled gently and full of kind encouragement, the heroes in the TV series who sacrificed their lives for the country and the people did not have him to smile so sunny and moving, "So I quietly gave you this root carving, both in size and shape, just right to be stuck in your waist when you jump out of the car and roll on the ground under the impetus of inertia, and hit your spleen until it cracks and shatters." โ€

Jacques's body suddenly couldn't help but tremble desperately, obviously his whole body hurt so much as he trembled, he knew that trembling like this would only make him die faster, but in the face of such a man who smiled gently and considerately, but exuded murderous intent in the depths of his pupils, he couldn't help but tremble, he couldn't help but be afraid!

"When a person's spleen ruptures, the longest time to die is a few hours, and the shortest is an hour. Therefore, if you have a ruptured spleen, as long as you can get first aid within an hour, you can usually survive. โ€

Listening to Shi Shaoying's whisper in his ear, Jacques's face showed a bit of hope again, but unfortunately, he was happy too early. Someone once said that when an author describes the protagonist, he will always habitually integrate a part of himself into it, so that not only does he have a sense of substitution, but he will also write easily.

Shi Shaoying has also published several novels so far, and his protagonists, regardless of their origins, personalities, and growth experiences, have a shining commonality in them, if they have to be expressed in words, this characteristic that originates from Shi Shaoying itself is...... Aggression is like fire, immobile like a mountain. The lion fights the rabbit, and it will kill with one hit!

Shi Shaoying hugged Jacques and kept him in the posture that was most in line with first aid knowledge, as if he was trying his best to let Jacques live, but every word he whispered was like a knife, "You could have lasted at least an hour, but unfortunately, when you smoked too hard just now, the lobes of your lungs expanded rapidly, which accelerated your intra-abdominal bleeding, so, I'm sorry, the time you can support is subtracted by ten minutes first." โ€

"You jumped out of a car at high speed and broke at least two ribs. The first to third ribs of our human body are protected by clavicles, shoulder blades and shoulder muscle girdles that are not easy to break; The eighth to tenth ribs are progressively shorter and are attached to the costal arch of the cartilage, which is elastic and cushioned, and the chance of fracture is not great; The eleventh and twelfth ribs are floating ribs that are more mobile and rarely fractured, so your fracture should occur between the fourth and seventh ribs. โ€

Shi Shaoying talked eloquently, and in this case, he gave Jacques a unique human physiology education lesson: "You just jumped out of the car and hit the ground in your chest, which is a direct violent fracture, and the broken ribs will move inward, and at the same time, it will puncture the intercostal blood vessels, pleura and lung lobes, producing hemothorax and pneumothorax. Although these two items will not kill you under normal circumstances, but I'm sorry, the injury is on injury, and the time you support will be reduced by ten minutes. โ€

"Also, when I talked to you about the spleen, about the bleeding in the internal organs, and about the effect of the root carving art that the child took two months to complete, your heartbeat suddenly increased violently, even if you are a healthy normal person, your heart contracts violently without any preparation, which will make the body feel irresistible fatigue, and then you will feel weak all over your body, and you will need to rest for at least half an hour to return to normal. In your physical state, you simply can't withstand this drastic change in your heart, which will make you more tired, and I dare assure you that in your state, once you can't resist the craving for sleep, you'll never be able to open your eyes again. Even if you can persist without falling asleep, sorry, the time you can support it will still have to be reduced by another ten minutes. โ€

Hearing this, Jacques's face welled up with a dead despair.

He lives in this country, and he knows all too well how efficient the country's government agencies, including the hospital's emergency system, work.

Government workers, chatting and stamping visas, can take ten minutes to stamp a stamp, and people waiting in line can also not be angry, as if all this is justified. Most countries in Africa are poor, not because of their geographical location, but because they are too lazy and careless to spend a lot of time, so that they simply cannot adapt to the high intensity and high pace of modern life.

In this environment, the possibility of getting an ambulance to drive out of the hospital in Garowรฉ and then take him to the operating table of the hospital in no more than 30 minutes is infinitely close to zero.

"By the way, do you want to know why your car is driving so well that suddenly there is a small explosion in the rear of the car, which makes you lose control directly?"

Looking at the man in front of him who smiled like an angel but had already bloomed into the darkest color, Jacques's whole body trembled slightly, but he nodded, even if he died, at least he wanted to die clearly.

"Do you remember the lighter you generously had to send everywhere, I also took one just now?"

Because this problem is too critical and it is too easy to cause yourself a lot of trouble, even if he knows that there is no monitor or other equipment nearby, Shi Shaoying still lowered his head and attached it to Kai Berin's ear in the most stable way, carefully hiding the changes in the shape of his lips, "When you called me, and even let people point guns at me, I knew that you were a turtle son who was spoiled and lawless and didn't take human life seriously at all, and only one person between the two of us could continue to live." So I flicked my finger and threw the lighter I got into the exhaust pipe of your expensive Ferrari sports car. โ€

The exhaust pipe of the car was cold at the time, and Shi Shaoying threw the plastic gas lighter into the exhaust pipe, which would not explode on the spot. But when Jacques started the car again, it was scorched by the high temperature, and the liquefied vapor in the lighter soon caused a small explosion directly in the exhaust pipe, which made Jacques, who was driving at high speed because of excessive emotion, completely lose control of the car in an instant because of panic.

A disposable lighter, a handicraft carved from the roots of a Nรฎmes tree, a cigarette mixed with marijuana...... If it weren't for Shi Shaoying's explanation, with this Jacques's IQ, he would never have known that there was such a kind of person in this world, and if he combined them together, he could also turn them into a weapon of death that killed people without seeing blood!

"Don't worry, I know that you pirates should have enough first-aid equipment in this city for your own safety, and maybe even an 'ambulance', although they won't save your life, but with the help of a bunch of life-sustaining equipment, you can make it to Gavero and then be sent to the hospital for first aid."

Hearing Shi Shaoying's words, Jacques's eyes widened again. Shi Shaoying is right, there are indeed cars similar to "ambulances" in this city, and with the life-supporting equipment in the cars, he may really be able to support Garoway. Although this probability is not too high, but when a person is about to drown, even if he catches a straw in his hand, he will desperately hold on, even if there is only a 1 in 10,000 chance, how can he give up easily?!

"Silly boy, how do you really believe it?"

Staring at Jacques's face eager to continue living, the corners of Shi Shaoying's mouth slowly raised, clearly like a cat and mouse, and his voice really sounded like the whisper of death in his ear: "Have you forgotten that in Somalia, only the capital Mogadishu has a hospital built with the help of us Chinese, even if Garowe is the capital of Puntland Province, at most there are only a few private health centers?" Do you think that with the medical conditions there, there is a way to save a person whose internal organs are ruptured? โ€

After Shi Shaoying successfully aroused Jacques's desire for survival, he changed hands and directly shattered the bubble of hope. The end result was that before the cigarette in his mouth was finished, Jacques's heart stopped beating without warning. Even when he was dead, his eyes were still wide open, filled with fear and remorse. It's a pity that he never had the opportunity to tell others about what he went through before he died.
