"Please come forward with the plaintiff's lawyer and the defendant's lawyer."

James. After Judge Abbott sent Zhu Jishi, who always said the wrong thing, off the witness stand, he invited several other witnesses to the court one by one, all of whom were "professional jishu personnel" provided by the plaintiff, that is, the so-called famous doctors, and used them to prove that Zhu Jishi's views were completely nonsense and had no academic value.

I hope so! The judge sighed in his heart, and then twisted his eyebrows and asked the lawyers of the prosecution and defense to speak in front of the referee's seat. This is the practice of British courts during trials, and it is a bargain to let the lawyers of the prosecution and defense go up, and if the defense is willing to surrender, it can lose half.

"Jason, is it really not reconciled?" Andrew. Jones asked Zhu Jishi, who had just come down from the witness stand, in a low voice. There is a chance of out-of-court settlement in civil cases, and if Zhu Jishi is willing to report to Daoqian and the UK immediately, the Royal Society of Medicine may still drop the complaint.

"No reconciliation!" Zhu Jishi said confidently, "The truth is on my side!" ”

"But the evidence is on their side!" Andrew. Jones gritted his teeth.

At the same time, Sir Hobber and Sir Reed and several other royal ministers were also whispering.

"Two sir, what does the Chinese mean by 'dyeing and cultivating'? Is there such a thing? ”

"Yes, if there really is, it's better to withdraw the lawsuit now, otherwise even if the sentence is handed down, it will be a big deal."

Sir Reed's face was gloomy, and his heart was naturally uneasy. He knew that Zhu Jishi's proposed surgical disinfection method was probably right, because he had already personally gone to Oumen Hospital to investigate, and Oumen Hospital had not had a case of puerperal fever for several months! This must not be explained by coincidence......

"The question now is whether we can win?" Sir Hubber gritted his teeth. He is 76 years old this year, studying medicine was more than 50 years ago, it was still in 1780, at that time Western medicine was still backward compared to now, internal medicine is nothing more than feeding patients tomato paste, drinking oil, drinking sulfuric acid or something, surgery is a stick to knock patients unconscious, and then bloodletting, cutting off hands and feet, basically the same as a butcher's work. Bacteria, viruses or something, let alone seeing them, I just haven't thought about it, and naturally I don't believe that there will be such a thing.

"Of course we can win this one." One of the royal ministers replied.

"Can criminal proceedings be initiated after winning?" He Bo asked in a deep voice.

"This ......" nodded and frowned: "Although it is not a final trial, as long as the Metropolitan Police is willing, a criminal investigation can still be launched." But ......"

He didn't say what he said, but Sir He also knew that although Zhu Jishi's words were hated, from a legal point of view, it was a big thing, even if the Metropolitan Police Department was willing to open a case for investigation, most of them would be over. You must know that this is the time for the Chartist to make a revolution, and who of the British police uncles has the time to take care of any defamation case? Even if you have kung fu management, how can you take Zhu Jishi? On the top of the day, he was fined a little money and kicked out of England.

"Don't withdraw the charge, as long as you can start a criminal investigation!" Sir Uncle's face turned pale. He still has a few acquaintances in the London Metropolitan Police Department, and when the time comes, Zhu Jishi will be arrested and interrogated, and maybe he will be able to try some bigger crimes.

"In case what he says is true...... Sir Reed said with some concern, "is it a request for an extension?" ”

"I don't need to!" He Bodao: "In medical matters, where is it so easy to distinguish right from wrong? ”

He was not wrong in what he said, because medicine, especially clinical medicine, is different from other scientific projects, and theoretically cannot conduct human experiments. Therefore, clinical medicine at this time is not based on experiments, but on the imagination of experienced doctors! In this way, any problem in medicine cannot be clarified in a day or two, and even if Zhu Jishi is telling the truth, it will not be recognized by most doctors until many years later.

In fact, it was not until 1865, when he died, that Semmelweis, who made the same point of view, was recognized for its medical value! Because in that year, Pasteur, the greatest scientist in French history, discovered silkworm bacteria, thus confirming the correctness of the theory of bacterial pathogenesis.

"Your Excellency, the plaintiff does not agree to settle."

"Your Excellency, the defendant does not reconcile."

James. Judge Abbott sighed in his heart, where is this lawsuit? It's obviously a battle of will! You should go to a duel with muskets, not to come to your own judge!

"Stand up!"

When the time came, the courtroom stood up, ready to hear the verdict, and the result was naturally expected by everyone. Well, I can't say the same, because there are still unexpected things, that is, Dr. Zhu shamelessly opened the golden finger and put Pasteur and Hans. Gram's discoveries and inventions were kept for himself and published decades in advance in several radical newspapers in England and in several regular newspapers in France and Germany.

……

London, Scotland Yard.

"Sir, you see that these purple ones are what Doctor Zhu is talking about." A young man in a white lab coat over his police uniform stands in the office of the Metropolitan Police Force headquarters in London, explaining the germs to Sir Stevenson, the chief of the London police, who is personally observing through a microscope.

"What kind of germ is this?" Sir Stevenson asked with some curiosity. Speaking of which, the police chief is still serious and responsible, and did not immediately order the arrest of people after receiving a report from the Royal Medical Society. Well, this is not the Qing Dynasty, and to arrest people is actually to ask Zhu Jishi to come to Scotland Yard to cooperate with the investigation, and there will be a lawyer to accompany him, so he basically can't ask anything. So Sir Stevenson sent a detective to investigate, and the next day the detective sent a copy of the "North Star" to Sir and said that there was key evidence on it - Zhu Jishi published the principle of the spread of germs and the method of observing germs. So Jazz called the police doctor and asked him to conduct the experiment in front of him.

"I don't know," the police doctor replied, "the sputum used for observation was collected from a prisoner with tuberculosis, and I think the purple germs are the tuberculosis ......bacilli that Dr. Chu said."

"What! ...... Mycobacterium tuberculosis" Sir Stevenson jumped to his feet and shouted at the doctor with a look of horror, "God, do you want to murder me?" You murderous doctor! How can you bring such a dangerous thing to my office? Take it away! ”

The young doctor shook his head very calmly and said in a smug voice, "Dangerous? Sir, there is not yet sufficient evidence that the purple spots are responsible for tuberculosis, as the Royal Society of Medicine still believes that tuberculosis is natural and not ......"

"Take it! Immediately! Stevenson gave the doctor who was talking nonsense, "Do you have to die of tuberculosis to prove that Dr. Zhu's point of view is right?" ”

"Yes, Sir." As soon as the doctor spoke, he suddenly felt that something was wrong, and hurriedly changed his words: "Oh, no, I didn't mean that. After saying that, he hurriedly cleaned up the microscope on the table and ran away.

"Sir, is the investigation going on?" The spy on the side took a few steps forward and asked in a low voice.

"What else to check? The stupid ass of the Royal Society of Medicine fell for this Oriental! He was tricked as a monkey, is the London Police Corps going to be a monkey too? Sir Stevenson said with a calm face.

"I see, Sir." The spy snapped and turned to leave.

"Wait."

Before he could reach the door, Sir Stevenson's voice rang out again, "Keep watching, but don't startle the snake." ”

"Sir, what do you mean?"

"Don't investigate the defamation case, but we must find a way to find out the details of this Oriental!" Sir Stevenson said coldly. "I think the performance of this Oriental is eye-catching enough, and the above must be very interested!"
