Chapter 348: Born to be a Rival
"You! Come here! Just like her, hold your fingers down here! Lin Yiqing turned his head and said to another maid of the Iwasaki family.
The maid walked over tremblingly, and also followed the example of Sanae, and pressed two fingers on an arterial point pointed by Lin Yiqing.
At that moment, Lin Yiqing called Iwasaki Yuka's nurse and another maid, and asked them to also press their fingers on the arterial point around Iwasaki's wound. Iwasaki Yuka's nurse couldn't help but cry bitterly when she saw that Iwasaki Yuka, who she had raised at a young age, became covered in blood and dying in the blink of an eye.
"Miss...... How did you end up like this...... What the hell is going on......" cried the nurse.
Hearing the nurse's words, Sanae's body trembled slightly, as if she was afraid of being seen with her expression, she slowly lowered her head. Although her movements were very subtle, she was still seen by Lin Yiqing, who was standing aside.
Lin Yiqing was keenly aware of what Sanae might know, and immediately asked bluntly: "Sanae, tell me, why did Miss suddenly commit suicide?" ”
"I don't know......" Sanae said with a cry and shook her head.
"You must know, tell me!" Lin Yiqing asked sharply.
Under Lin Yiqing's shout, Sanae's consciousness collapsed, her body shook, but her fingers still didn't leave the place where Lin Yiqing wanted her to stay.
"Miss...... Received a letter...... After reading it, I looked very sad at the time, I thought she was going to rest, so I didn't bother her, who knows......" Sanae's gaze fell on the unconscious Iwasaki Yuka, and she couldn't cry for a while.
"What's that letter? Have you seen it? Lin Yiqing was shocked and asked.
"I haven't seen it...... The letter was torn apart by the young lady. Thrown in the garden......" Sanae replied, crying.
"Mr. Hiranuma. You immediately arrange for someone to go to the garden. Find all the shredded pieces of this letter, and not a single one will be missing. Lin Yiqing's face turned gloomy, he turned his head to look at the man in Hiranuma who was waiting at the door, and said sharply, "Tell them that if even one piece is missing, they won't have to live!" ”
Kazuo Hiranuma was so frightened that he immediately agreed to run out of the door. After a while, there was a sound of rolling and crashing and screaming on the stairs, and Lin Yiqing knew that it should be that Kazuo Hiranuma was too old to run too quickly and fell down on the stairs.
Lin Yiqing didn't pay attention to the embarrassment of Kazuo Hirumuma, but took out his pocket watch and looked at it.
Just now, what he implemented for Iwasaki Yujia was only a first-aid treatment method for severe abdominal stab wounds in modern medical treatment, which was barely able to stop the bleeding, but to save her, a professional doctor was needed to deal with her, and she had to be treated within 40 minutes. Otherwise, life would be in danger.
Lin Yiqing arranged for his guard warrior to go to Dr. Thomas, which meant that Thomas had to arrive within 40 minutes. Treat Iwasaki's wounds, otherwise Iwasaki's life will be in danger.
Dr. Thomas was a highly skilled English physician who was originally a lecturer at the medical training center attached to the Satsuma Private School, and he was a great admirer of Saigo Takamori. After Saigo Takamori decided to do so, he heard the news that he met Saigo Takamori and volunteered to join the Satsuma army and go to the front line to treat the wounded, but Saigo Takamori politely refused, and Saigo Takamori only took his students. But Thomas was not reconciled, chased all the way to Osaka, and rescued many wounded and civilians of the Satsuma Army along the way, Saigo Takamori was very moved when he heard about it, so he left him behind, and in order to ensure his safety, let him act with Lin Yiqing's direct troops.
Now Lin Yiqing can't do anything about the injured Iwasaki Yujia, so he can only wait anxiously for the arrival of Dr. Thomas.
Lin Yiqing found a chair and sat down, and bandaged his right hand, which had been cut by a knife, with the remaining strips of cloth, and his state of mind at this time had also become extremely bad because of the accidental suicide he encountered.
He was originally here today to find out if the Mitsubishi Trading Company of the Iwasaki family had anything else to use for military purposes other than the manpower submarine before the arrival of the Satsuma Army, and by the way, to "improve" the relationship with Iwasaki Yuka, it was because he would use Iwasaki Yuka's piano to play his favorite and good tunes, but he never thought that at the end of the song, she would actually commit suicide in front of him!
Okay, why would she want to kill herself?
Although he made her angry enough last time, he was sure that her suicide would never be because of herself.
What could be the reason for that?
Could it be because of her ...... Boyfriend?
Thinking of this, Lin Yiqing suddenly felt that his heart was inexplicably sour, and he couldn't help but feel a little funny.
Only then did he realize that he actually cared a little about it, and it could even be said that he liked the fallen princess of the Iwasaki family.
The reason why he is like this is not because of her beauty (one of the great advantages of a wife is a beauty, that is, she has a strong immunity in the face of other beauties), but because of Iwasaki Yujia's unruly young lady's temper, which is very similar to Xiaotong......
Lin Yiqing suppressed the chaotic thoughts in his mind, lay down on the chair, and rested.
Time passed minute by minute, Lin Yiqing took out his pocket watch from time to time and looked at it, half an hour had passed in a blink of an eye, but Dr. Thomas still hadn't arrived. Lin Yiqing looked at Youjia Iwasaki, who was pale and unconscious on the bed, and felt a burst of anxiety in his heart.
Bursts of hurried footsteps suddenly sounded in the corridor, Lin Yiqing looked up at the door, Hiranuma Kazuo hurriedly greeted him, and after a while, he walked in quickly with a gray-haired British gentleman, and behind the British gentleman, two medical school students each carried a huge medicine box.
"I heard that you were looking for me, General, so I hurried here, hoping it wasn't too late." Thomas couldn't help but be taken aback when he saw Lin Yiqing's hand wrapped around the bloody cloth belt, "You don't care, right?" ”
"I'm fine." Lin Yiqing waved his hand and pointed to Youjia Iwasaki on the bed, "Time is pressing, please hurry up and save her!" ”
Dr. Thomas nodded, motioned for his two assistants to open the box, prepared it, and then came to Iwasaki's side. Look at the wound in her abdomen.
"What are they doing? Forest? I saw several women surrounding Yuka Iwasaki, each pressing some points on her body with two fingers. Dr. Thomas was stunned for a moment. Turning his head to Lin Yiqing and asked.
"Those are the arterial points near her wound near her heart, and I asked them to hold those points to stop the bleeding." Lin Yiqing replied.
"You're a genius, Lin." Dr. Thomas untied the tourniquet, examined the wound, and exclaimed.
"You can all let go and let Mr. Thomas take care of the wounds." Lin Yiqing said to Sanae and the others.
Sanae and the others retreated as they were told, and sure enough, they let go. The bleeding from the wound showed signs of increasing, and Dr. Thomas did not dare to slack off, and immediately stepped forward with his assistant to treat the wound.
After a while, the wound was re-cleaned and sutured, and the medicine was applied, and Sanae and Hiranuma Kazuo were relieved to see that the wound was no longer bleeding, but Dr. Thomas still had a solemn expression.
"Lin, this young lady has lost too much blood, and I'm worried that she's too weak. Can't wake up. Dr. Thomas said to Lin Yiqing.
"Sir, you must save Miss her!" Hear Dr. Thomas. Kazuo Hiranuma was shocked.
"Sir! Please, save her! Sanae and the nurse rushed to Dr. Thomas and pleaded loudly.
"There's a way, but it's very risky, and if you think you can take the risk, I can try." Dr. Thomas looked at them and said with a serious face.
"Mr. Thomas, your solution is to give her a blood transfusion, right?" Lin Yiqing guessed Thomas's method and asked.
"Yes." Thomas nodded, "She has lost too much blood, and it is the best way to give her blood, but it will be very dangerous, because the blood of different people is mixed, and there is a possibility of clotting, putting the patient in danger, and in severe cases, it can be life-threatening......"
Lin Yiqing certainly understood what Thomas's words meant.
The blood that flows in the human body is the source of human life. If the human body loses too much blood, it will be life-threatening. Modern people know that in the case of excessive blood loss, as long as the blood of a healthy person of the same blood type is transfused, it can save lives, and blood transfusion has become a common first aid method. The history of blood transfusion as a treatment method is less than a century, yet human understanding of blood transfusion has gone a long way, even at the cost of human lives.
Back in ancient times, people looked at blood with awe as the source of life and tried to use it to prolong life or save dying lives. In the gladiatorial arenas of ancient Rome, victorious gladiators would drink each other's blood in the hope of gaining their courage and strength. Blood drinking therapy was also popular in the world. According to historical records, the Pope of Rome fell ill and drank the blood of three boys, and as a result, all four of them, including him, died. In the era when medicine was not developed, it was impossible for people to really use blood transfusions to treat diseases. Later, the British physician Harvey discovered blood circulation and laid the scientific foundation for blood transfusion. On this basis, someone successfully carried out a blood transfusion between dogs. Then the Frenchman Dennis transfused sheep blood to an anemia patient for the first time, and the patient's condition seemed to improve. Later, he transfused goat blood to a mentally ill patient, and found that the patient was in a state of shock, so he continued to transfuse the patient's goat blood, resulting in the patient's death. In this case, blood transfusions were banned in France, and this ban was even extended to almost all of Europe. In the 150 years since, blood transfusion has entered a "dark age".
It was only in modern times that British obstetrician and gynecologist Blundell re-attempted blood transfusions. He discovered the danger of animal blood transfusion to human beings and advocated the use of human blood transfusion. Based on this idea, he successfully used a blood transfusion to save a woman with postpartum hemorrhage, becoming the first successful blood transfusion in human history. Then, many doctors followed in Blundel's footsteps and made various improvements to the methods and instruments of blood transfusion, so that many patients who were on the verge of death recovered their health after receiving blood transfusions.
However, in the clinical practice of a large number of blood transfusions, accidents have occurred one after another: some patients will suddenly develop symptoms such as chills and fever, headache, chest tightness, shortness of breath and heart failure after receiving blood transfusion, and even die. At first, it was thought that this might be caused by clotting of the transfused blood. However, when the problem of preventing blood clotting is effectively solved, transfusion reactions still occur frequently. It has also been speculated that it may have been caused by a bacterial infection during blood transfusion, but after strict aseptic surgery, the danger still occurs from time to time.
Why do some people have no reaction at all after receiving a blood transfusion, while others have a fatal reaction? Could it be because of racial differences? The facts answer in the negative. Is it because of gender differences or blood differences? Neither is it. Because of same-sex blood transfusions between fathers and sons, brothers, and sisters. Sometimes a fatal transfusion reaction can also occur. It's just a smaller proportion. What the hell is going on? Later generations certainly knew that this was a blood transfusion reaction caused by blood group incompatibility, but modern people did not understand this, and blood transfusion fell back into the "Dark Ages". Blood was replaced by saline and transfused into the body for almost half a century.
In order to unravel the mystery of blood transfusion reactions, various explorations and studies have been carried out. Among them, the Austrian doctor, pathologist Karl? Landstaner was the first to unravel the mystery. But that's for the next century......
Hearing the doctor's words, the faces of Kazuo Hiranuma, Sanae, and the nurse all changed.
"This ......"
Seeing these people hesitate. Lin Yiqing said coldly: "If you want to save her, you have to take this risk!" If you take this risk, your young lady still has a chance to live! If she hadn't taken this risk, she would have died! The choice is yours! If you are still undecided, just wait to collect the body of your young lady! ”
Kazuo Hiranuma hesitated for a moment, then finally made up his mind and bowed to Dr. Thomas: "Please!" Mr! ”
"Don't worry! I'll do my best! Thomas nodded, his gaze sweeping over the people in the room, "I need someone to provide the blood for Miss right now." ”
Hearing the doctor's words, several maids hesitated. Only Sanae and the nurse stood up without hesitation.
"Use my blood!" Sanae said to the doctor, and she turned her head to look at the nurse. Persuaded, "You're too old for your body to stand it." ”
Seeing Sanae's determined eyes, the nurse nodded with tears in her eyes.
Lin Yiqing looked at the petite figure of the maid who stepped forward at the critical moment, and couldn't help but be moved in her heart, feeling a little sorry for her behavior just now.
"No, your blood may be rejecting from her body, use my blood." Lin Yiqing got up and said, "My blood will definitely not have this kind of reaction." ”
"How can you be sure that your blood won't go wrong?" Hearing Lin Yiqing's words, Sanae's eyes widened in surprise.
"Human blood is divided into different types, the same kind of people, the blood will not coagulate when it meets together, and the blood of different kinds of people will clot when it meets together, and there is a kind of human blood that will not coagulate with the blood of any other person by nature, and I am just such a person." Lin Yiqing was too lazy to explain the principle of blood type and the fact that she was blood type O with the people in front of her at this time, and after answering her simply, she got up and came to Dr. Thomas, "Ready to start!" Mr. Thomas! ”
Dr. Thomas then ordered the students to open the box containing the instruments and took out the equipment used for blood transfusion, although Lin Yiqing knew something about the medical equipment of this era, but when he saw this pile of bottles and cans with tubes and piston copper handles, he still had a feeling of horror.
Doctor, you ...... It's not for blood transfusions on mules and cows, is it?
After Lin Yiqing made a big insult to the medical equipment of this era in his heart, Dr. Thomas and his assistant finished preparing, inserted the needle into the blood vessels on the arms of Lin Yiqing and Iwasaki Yujia, and began the operation of blood transfusion, Lin Yiqing watched her blood enter a glass bottle through the tube, and then enter the blood vessels of Iwasaki Yujia through another tube, her face gradually became ruddy, and an irritable heart somehow gradually calmed down.
DR. THOMAS'S OPERATION WAS NOT FINISHED UNTIL HE HAD VISUALLY SEEN THAT HE HAD BEEN TRANSFUSED WITH 500CC OF BLOOD, AND WHEN THE DOCTOR PULLED THE NEEDLE OUT OF HIS AND IWASAKI'S ARMS, LIN YIQING FELT HIS HEAD SLIGHTLY DIZZY.
"The blood really didn't clot! It worked! It worked! Dr. Thomas, who had been observing for a while, found that Iwasaki Yuka did not have the slightest abnormal reaction, and his breathing became steady, and after a while, he opened his eyes and couldn't help but say happily.
"Thank you! Doctor! And you! Venerable General! Seeing that Iwasaki Yuka was out of danger, Kazuo Hiranuma couldn't help but cry.
"Why do you want to save me...... Iwasaki Yuka looked at Lin Yiqing and those strange medical instruments that appeared in front of him, understood what was happening, and shed tears again, "Why don't you let me die......"
Hearing that Youjia Iwasaki said something like this after waking up, Lin Yiqing's originally stretched brows furrowed again.
"Why do you think about dying?" Lin Yiqing stared at her eyes and asked in a deep voice.
Hearing Lin Yiqing's question, Iwasaki Yujia was shocked, and immediately closed his mouth and looked away from him.
"Why commit suicide? Who asked you to do this? Lin Yiqing asked.
Iwasaki Yuka turned his head to meet his gaze and asked, "Why did you save me?" Don't let me die happily? You saved me, you hurt me, you know? ”
"Forget it! Miss Iwasaki, don't say such useless words, I saved you because I know that you don't really want to die, and that someone forced you to do this. Lin Yiqing sneered, "If you really want to die, why don't you just cut your wrists, cut your arteries, or directly puncture your own heart?" No one will be able to save you that way! So, you still don't want to die. (To be continued......)
