Chapter 202: Obscure Revelation
"I think so, your school has a lot of background, and even if you have the rest, it's enough to complete the experiment." Kraft pretended to walk to the shelves, his hands speeding up the pages.
The records flicked through the ten fingers and then gathered in the mind, and Kalman's signature flower-style signature greatly accelerated the process.
Each of its appearances represented the disappearance of several pieces of equipment from the warehouse, and at the same time naturally mixed into the college's large purchase list and replenished, and no one would have any objection to this.
Because these losses are clearly and reasonably documented: a small percentage of glass instruments are broken; Most of the metal equipment comes into contact with patients with infectious diseases, and is no longer stored and mixed with the rest of the equipment, which seems to be Morrison's research direction has begun to tilt towards infectious diseases.
These include disfigurement due to syphilis, a condition described as "vegetal warts", subcutaneous abscesses, tuberculosis hemoptysis, and deformities caused by leprosy, many of which are considered to be contaminated by ungodly or unclean people.
A considerable number of patients will choose not to seek medical attention, and it will soon be delayed to the extent that lesions can be reached on the body surface; or because of such diseases, they are denied treatment and cannot be treated with surgery when needed.
Of course, apart from the incision and draining of pus, most of the other methods only cause more pain.
This becomes a big gap, and few people are willing to get involved in this kind of field, and then add a surgical suffix to the end, and it is basically impossible for anyone to do overlapping studies.
So it's quite reasonable to use it as an excuse to not worry about people popping up frequently and saying they want to share their experiences.
Kalman, on the other hand, seems to be serious and in fact coping, repeatedly uses "contact with a patient with a virulent infectious disease" as an excuse to explain that the equipment has not been returned in full. The frequency is so frequent that it is impossible to ignore, and it is beyond reproach only in terms of form and process.
After writing down these perfunctory notes, Kalman carefully placed a carefully arranged floral signature at the end.
The sense of incongruity that is difficult to describe is brewing in the text, and the meaning that can only be tasted by reading and analyzing it throughout the text seems to be deliberately designed, making a subtle murmur across the time barrier, trying to convey a certain directional content to the attentive reader.
And only a listener with incredible tacit understanding can parse a message that is no clearer in a specific scene and in a specific way than a broken paper fiber.
Kraft wasn't sure if he was the man, or even if there really was a nominally dead man, talking to someone who was months late through a borrowed book.
Cipher, code, or metaphor? Kraft sifted through the text he had read, looking for possible ciphertext in the typography and letter combinations, but found no information, the only thing he could confirm was that the writer's logical thinking was clear, and he had gotten rid of the agitated confusion brought about by the beginning of the breakthrough, and wrote the words out of his own will.
However, he is unable to express his meaning directly, which suggests that this is a message that is contrary to the will of the controllers here.
Kraft half-ruled out the possibility of passwords or hiding heads, and what could be easily seen by himself was bound to be easily seen by others, not to mention that under normal circumstances, no one would have the opportunity to hold an instrument for a long time and borrow a notebook to flip through it.
If there were instructions, it would be a more obvious and clever approach.
"There are dangers in the production of narcotic drugs, and I would like to state in advance that it is important to need a safe experimental site and be prepared for losses." Since you can't figure it out, you don't think about it yet, and what makes Kraft care more is the disappearing equipment.
There were so many metal instruments, and so few glass containers, that Morrison would have nothing to say if he could refine them with a few large round flasks and beakers.
But from an objective point of view, this is clearly the preparation of the operation, and it is not the scale of a few people, and the disappearance of the rotation of instruments is more than enough to support five or six Liston surgical clinics to operate non-stop.
So where did this non-existent specialist hospital go? Or do they serve other purposes?
Imagine tools being picked up, blades clasped in dozens of hands, ungauge tissues peeled apart, and records piled up over their heads, while the Inquisition's endless investigations found no living or dead for their consumption.
When Kalman came to Dunling, Morrison showed him just such a project.
No one could say what was being dissected under the knife's edge, only that it was enough to make Kalman, who thought he had found his ultimate goal, cringe and try to deliver a message, only to be guided by inexplicable hints.
It's like he's aware of something ubiquitous that might emerge from any corner of the city.
But how is this possible, the dual forces of the church and the world are firmly in control of the city, and such a power must emerge out of thin air, unless there is a second Dunling to accommodate and become their living space.
[This is also outrageous]
This possibility is very small, at most how effective monitoring and control of the participants are achieved.
"The college values the time of instrument reproduction, not the cost." Viren took the booklet and skimmed through the last few pages, affirming, "No one needs them lately, they can be used at will, and we will open up other laboratories as soon as possible, but the environmental conditions."
"We don't care about these trivial people, as long as we don't put too many flammable materials, it's best to do it on the dissecting stone table." Kraft waved his hand to say that he didn't need to bother, and that he didn't care about anything other than safety.
The ether production experiment has successfully brought him to the clue, and the difficulty is how to decipher the clue.
It must be able to naturally lead the interested investigator to the target, and if it can't be interpreted, it only means that it is not the audience.
You have to make up for the information gap between the two in order to substitute each other's thinking. I didn't have a clear goal, so I had to find a random entry point and try it slowly, but it was a bit difficult to get involved as a pure surgery professor.
Fortunately, he had been prepared for this situation, "Lecturer Viren, in addition to anesthesia, I have another thing to do when I come to Dunling this time. ”
"Are you developing in other areas? It's really wide-ranging. ”
"Please allow me to introduce you to the Medical Society for Tuberculosis and Rare Diseases, a society established with the permission and funding of the Duke of Westminster, whose main task is to summarize the clinical characteristics of rare diseases and the study of the diagnosis and treatment of tuberculosis." As one of the most common epidemics, in the era of lack of effective means of control, there is hardly a place where tuberculosis does not exist.
Once it is contaminated with infectious diseases, tuberculosis is an impossible topic to bypass, and many of Kalman's reasons for discarding equipment are related to tuberculosis.
"Huh?" Veren couldn't understand how a good professor of surgery could have been involved with tuberculosis, but the testimony of Fernand and Lyndon made the existence of the society unquestionable.
"We would like to know the profile of TB patients in Lower Tunling, and we wonder if you have anyone you can refer."
I'm a little unwell, but I've been busy again lately and need to adjust my state.
We are also soliciting feedback on the perception of this volume.
