Chapter 1265: Crisis

Three days later, Kubal was standing beside the hospital bed, and Maggs was lying on the bed, looking at him with his eyes open.

There was a ferocity in those cloudy and yellowish eyes that only appeared in his youth, and Maggs was in a rage like never before, but he couldn't do anything.

"After our examination, ......," the doctor in charge of the report glanced at Kubal, and then at Maggs with some sympathy, and saw that neither of them said anything before continuing, "We think that Mr. Maggs fell accidentally in the process of defecating, and in a very, very coincidental situation, some damage to his brain, damage to his prefrontal lobe, and his ability to act ...... A part is missing. ”

Kubal closed his mouth tightly, he nodded, and after a few moments he turned his head to look at the doctor, and asked softly as if he was afraid of disturbing Mags, "Is there any chance of recovery?"

The doctor disguised his embarrassment by pushing his glasses, and he smiled reluctantly, and before he could say anything, Kubal dodged the answers with a "I see."

He knew very well that the doctors could not solve these problems, and when he learned the news two days ago, he had already read part of the medical report on brain damage.

In today's medical field, even if the organ is broken, it can be replaced with a new one, but for the most mysterious brain, people still have no way, and there are not many places to explore, let alone in-depth operations.

Maggs was diagnosed with neurological injury and incapacitation syndrome, in other words, he was actually healthy, and he did not become stupid and mentally retarded, but because of the damage to part of his brain tissue, he could not do some of the movements he did in the past.

For example, he couldn't control his limbs, he couldn't control his ability to speak, and even the movement of his eyes was impaired to a certain extent.

He is now confined to a bed or wheelchair, and needs to be supervised 24 hours a day to avoid suffocation due to sudden rollover, which causes obstruction of mouth and nose breathing.

It's a very painful symptom, because the part of his brain that thinks, manages the memory, manages the emotions is good, and it's like living in a shell, like losing his freedom!

He kept looking at Kubal, hoping to make eye contact with some questions, and in the past they had a tacit understanding, often able to complete face-to-face private communication through subtle changes in the eyes.

But now, Kubal didn't react, or that Mags's eyes didn't have the ability to communicate, it just looked like it was in a daze.

The five major medical groups of the empire have assembled a panel of top brain experts from their respective medical schools, and the expert group believes that such injuries are difficult for humans to intervene in, and they can use scalpels to cut open brain tissue - they have tried many times in animals.

However, they can't stitch the brain tissue together with needles and threads, which will have no meaning or value other than causing more serious brain damage.

If such a situation occurs in young children or children, there is still a possibility of cure, but in an elderly person who has stopped secreting hormones in all aspects, the possibility of self-healing is basically zero.

Perhaps feeling a little ashamed, as the most authoritative researcher in the field of braincase in the empire and even the world, he can't do anything but give up, the doctor proposed a possibility, "According to some of our recent research, we have come to the conclusion that human beings secrete a special hormone to stimulate the development of embryonic brain tissue during the embryonic period, and this hormone will accompany the growth of the embryo until it is eight or nine years old before gradually disappearing from the human body." ”

"Our lab has been working this hormone and its effects, and it can actually be used in the body of His Excellency Mags. "There was a case of a congenital brain defect, although the child died in the end, the proportion of his brain defects was more than 70 percent when he was born, and only about 50 percent when he died. ”

He gradually accentuated his tone, these detailed data and cases gave him more confidence, and these confidence in him was also interfering with the other people in the room, "We have reason to believe that this is one of the best ways to solve the current difficult problems in brain science, there is no medical treatment more suitable for the human body than self-repair and redevelopment, it is still harmless!"

Kubal stared at Maggs for two minutes, still unable to figure out what the old man with no focus in his eyes was trying to say, he glanced back at the doctor and asked softly, "Is it safe?"

The doctor nodded vigorously, "Yes, Your Excellency Prime Minister, we extract this hormone directly from the mother's baby pouch and try it on animals and volunteers before giving it to Mr. Maggs." ”

Every year, the five major medical groups recruit a large number of volunteers from the community to conduct clinical trials of drugs, including some practical operations in surgical innovation.

Volunteers don't have to pay even a penny to the medical group in the process, and the medical group will pay the volunteers at five to twenty times the minimum weekly imperial wage.

Among the volunteers who need to perform surgery, there will be an additional one-time payment ranging from 5,000 yuan to 30,000 yuan, and the medical group will sign a contract to ensure the personal safety of all volunteers.

This has allowed some people in the society who are unwilling to work and urgently need a large amount of money in a short period of time to find a new place to make money, and among these volunteers, except for about 30% of the patients who are really in urgent need of new drugs or new surgical methods to treat them, more are some who come to make money.

Of course, even with all the guarantees and safeguards, hundreds to thousands of people die in a laboratory every year because of clinical trials of drugs.

For some time, human rights organizations in society have been calling for the use of human beings as drugs for experiments that are inhumane and unethical, but without this part of the experiment, it is difficult for all kinds of new drugs to be available to the public, and no one will try the kind of new drugs that have not been clinically proven.

It is ridiculous that those human rights activists are calling for people not to give up their health and lives for money, and at the same time they are denouncing medical groups for squandering people's health and lives with money, and at the same time they are taking medicines that may have been improved several times to be safe because many people die of allergies or become disabled.

It is already a social norm to pick up a bowl to eat and smash the bowl after eating, but after all, the consequences of death and severe disability are so terrible that a large number of people have also enthusiastically called for an end to unsafe clinical trials after learning about these news.

But the problem is that clinical validation is never safe, especially for new drugs.

Under pressure from the community, some people have proposed to stop using humans as a clinically validated group of drugs and replace them with animals that are closer to humans.

But if ...... If there are certain big people who are willing to lend a hand, then everything becomes easy to solve.

Kubal has also heard about some recent troubles, the reason is that a new anti-inflammatory drug has some serious problems in the clinical process, and more than 20 percent of the drug users have developed acute organ failure because of some unidentified problems, and dozens of people have died.

The revelation of this by a young medical student who had just joined the company caused a huge reaction and panic in the society, and the social activists almost pointed at the nose of the medical group and said that they were murdered.

Kubal knew what he meant, and after a moment of silence, he looked at Maggs and sighed, "Every step forward in human civilization, there are countless people who are paying for it, even sacrificing. He glanced at the doctor, his voice a little lowered, "We can't let the progress of civilization stop at this moment because we are afraid of death and being injured, we will be the sinners of history." ”

"Every year, tens of millions of people take drugs and get rid of diseases, a few people can't shake this society, arrange clinical trials as soon as possible, I wait for your good news. ”

The doctor let out a sigh of relief, and then left quickly, and Kubal had the door of the ward closed, and sat down on the edge of the bed, and he looked at Mags, who looked at him, but could not see the slightest focus in the old man's eyes, as if he were in a daze.

"I'll do my best to help you recover, but if ......," he was silent again, there was some trouble, or a big one.

But there is no need to tell Maggs about these things, he is like this now, he should have a good mood, maintain a good mood, there is no need to let him follow the troubles.

Kubal stood up and was about to take his leave, and after walking two steps, Maggs, who had been lying on the bed, suddenly snorted twice, his body twitched as if twitching, his eyes looked at the ceiling, and occasionally made a "hum", a little painful, and a little anxious, as if he wanted to express something.

But Kubal couldn't guess what he was trying to say for a long time, and finally stroked the old fellow and turned to leave.

In fact, the first person to jump out after the news of Magus's attack was His Royal Highness the Grand Prince, who formed an imperial party to resist the old emperor's trick of passing the throne to the third prince, and it was still very successful.

Although the three princes are His Majesty the Emperor, in fact, the real royalists are crowded on the side of the eldest prince.

In fact, the reason is very simple, even if the three princes are as good as the three princes, it is not as practical as the big prince who can take power, and the three princes ...... , no, it is to follow the young majesty and there is no real benefit other than mixing some fame.

However, the imperialist party is different, and once the imperialist party is formed and begins to operate, it may not be impossible to squeeze into the current political structure and occupy its own place.

As long as it can win two or three, three or four states, the imperial party will have a climate, and there will be a few more governors and a dozen or more mayors and councillors in the party, and these things are the real benefits, the visible future, and there is no such thing on the side of His Majesty the Emperor.

Although the eldest prince won this game, his sudden move caused some problems in the political structure of the empire, and now there are not only the old and new parties, but also the imperial party and the labor party, and the two extra parties also mean more uncertainty, which is not a good thing.

If a country wants to grow healthily and strongly, the best way is to have only one voice from top to bottom, from the overthrow of the old society by Mags to the present is the best example and proof that the entire empire is highly operated with the leader of the empire as the core, and there is no trace of power used in the wrong place, which is the reason for the rapid revival and strength of the empire!

Everyone's dissatisfaction with the Great Prince has created a sense of crisis for the Great Prince, and he now urgently needs to strengthen himself to fight these grievances, he didn't have too good ideas before, but Mags's injury gave him an opportunity.

If he could annex a part of the members and institutions of the new party, as long as these were digested, he and his imperial party would be qualified to fight against the new party and the old party.

He didn't dare to think like that before, but Mags was injured, and he dared to think so, and even he prayed that Mags would die in Seliwell, although his prayers were not heard by God, but the good news was that Mags could not recover in a short time.

Since he decided to do it, the eldest prince is not the kind of person who looks ahead and backward, otherwise there would not be a matter of the emperor announcing his abdication in the morning and the formation of the imperial party in the afternoon.

His Royal Highness refused to meet Kubal and others twice on the grounds that he was "busy with official business", and his henchmen were scattered by him, contacting people from the old party and some capitalists and influential people in society.

The Imperial Party had just appeared, and there had been a slight uncontrolled change in the political landscape within the empire, and Kubal was also very anxious in his heart, and it happened that Mags had encountered such a thing, and he could only deal with it alone.

If one is not good, their secret meeting will be in danger of being separated.

If there was a more reliable person who didn't need to be more powerful than Mags, just a little closer.

Kubal always thinks so, but there are no such people around, all of them are stupid!

That evening, when Kubal came to the hospital after his official business, he still wanted to see the old fellow, and as soon as he opened the door, he saw two figures standing and sitting beside the bed.

It's Doolin, and Ophelia!
