Chapter 65: The Broken World (12)
Hearing the sound of the door opening in the living room, Cheng Mo opened his eyes, there were no curtains in the simple room, the bright sunlight shone on his face, he lowered his eyes, and raised his hand to cover the dazzling light. Although he didn't sleep until the early hours of the morning in order to make the special Coke "Monster and Moonlight" last night, Cheng Mo's nerves kept tense and woke up with a slight ring.
Heller's heavy footsteps gradually became clear, Cheng Mo's eyes also adapted to the strong light, he put down his hand and turned his head to look at the side, Athena was already gone, it was strange when Athena left, but there was no impression in his brain, as if the subconscious had already defaulted to Athena's completely safe role, and would not trigger the protection of the security mechanism.
Cheng Mo looked at Athena's messy bed, and couldn't help but think of the scene last night, and he sneered at himself while getting up: "Why are you so serious?"
"Uncle Rektka, you're awake!"
Before Cheng Mo's emotion in his heart was finished, he saw Heller walking to the door from the living room in a hurry.
"Woke up. Seeing Heller's eagerness and apprehension in his expression, Cheng Mo knew that they had decided to let Athena operate on Dr. Adjara, so he said, "It's going to be an operation! β
"Don't worry, don't worry! Have you slept well? If you haven't slept well, just sleep a little longer!" said Heller, insincerely.
Of course, Cheng Mo knew that this decision was not something that Heller, who had always been delicate, would say, so he felt strange in his heart, so he asked, "What's the matter?"
Heller smiled and said, "Dr. Wendy told you to wait until you are asleep before calling you over. β
Cheng Mo was a little surprised that Athena, who had never cared about people, would still care about him, he was stunned for a moment, and his heart was slightly sweet, "Almost." You wait for me at the door for a while, and after I wash my face and brush my teeth, I go to the hospital. β
Heller answered "yes" and walked out of the room. Cheng Mo hurriedly got up. When I finished washing, I went straight to the hospital with Heller. When I entered the hospital, I found that the side of the operating room on the second floor had been completely emptied, and there were no patients lying in the corridor, no nurses busy shuttling, but there were many more guards armed with submachine guns. Cheng Mo couldn't help but secretly speculate whether these guards were fleeing to maintain order or to prevent them from failing in surgery.
When he was about to arrive at the preparation room of the operating room, Colonel Tamer, who had been waiting for a long time, stopped Cheng Mo and Heller, and after he asked Heller to wait in the dean's room first, he took off his sunglasses, stared at Cheng Mo and said in a serious tone: "Mr. Rektzka, I don't think I need to say more, you should have guessed what the identity of Heller's father is." β
Cheng Mo glanced at the bodyguard holding the submachine gun behind Colonel Tamer, and replied quietly: "No matter what the identity of Heller's father is, in our eyes he is a patient, and our task is to do this operation and cure him ....."
"That's the best. Colonel Tamer nodded, "But I have to remind you that it was your own initiative to operate when the surgical equipment is not complete, which shows that you are 100% sure, so don't say anything about the accident afterwards, the operation failed......" He paused and warned coldly, "I can guarantee that you can't afford the consequences." β
There is no doubt that this is Colonel Tamer nakedly threatening their lives, Cheng Mo naturally believes in Athena's level, and said politely: "We can guarantee that the operation will be successful, but we also hope that you will not break your promise and send us to Damascus immediately, otherwise you queer people can't afford this consequence." β
Cheng Mo was-for-tat, but Senior Colonel Tamer didn't think so at all, and still said with a straight face: "As long as the operation is successful, everything is said that we queer Germans have kindness to repay kindness, of course, there is hatred ......"
Before Colonel Tamer could finish speaking, Athena suddenly walked out of the preparation room, and she walked towards Cheng Mo and Colonel Tamer who were standing in the middle of the corridor with a blank face. Both of the people who heard the footsteps turned their heads to look at Athena, and behind her were several doctors peering into their heads.
Athena's footsteps seemed to be unhurried, but the speed was extremely fast, and in an instant, she reached the side of Cheng Mo and Colonel Tamer.
Seeing Athena pass over the two guards with a cold face, Colonel Tamer felt an oppressive pressure, and the atmosphere suddenly became stagnant, and even his breathing was not smooth because of this. Tamer has always been more in awe of Athena, who is not easy to deal with, or maybe he doesn't want to affect Athena's mood when he had surgery, so he looked a little weak at this time, he quickly turned around and asked, "Dr. Wendy, is there something wrong?"
Without saying a word, Athena lifted her feet in lightning speed, her long legs in jeans lifted high, and in an uncanny gesture she kicked on Colonel Tamer's chin.
Colonel Tamer didn't react at all, he didn't make any dodging moves, even Cheng Mo only saw a sickle-like phantom, only heard a "click", then a loud "bang", and Colonel Tammer's not too tall and strong body smashed into the center of the corridor.
Colonel Tamer groaned and covered his mouth full of blood, but Athena raised her foot in low-top leather boots, stepped on the back of his hand, and said coldly: "According to the type of blade, there are twenty-six kinds of scalpels, let's see which one you like?"
Before Colonel Tamer could react to what was happening, he was stepped on by Athena on the back of his hand covering his mouth, and he didn't know how to struggle, but subconsciously made a stumbling voice, as if asking "What are you talking about?"
At this time, the two guards raised their guns and pointed their guns at Athena, but Athena ignored the muzzles of the two black holes, looked down condescendingly at Colonel Tamer and said coldly: "The last person who threatened me, I recommended a No. 24 scalpel to him, which is a knife specially used to cut the skin, muscles, periosteum and other tissues..... It's just a pity that he didn't wait for the operation to be completed and died....."
Athena said it lightly, but even Cheng Mo couldn't help but tremble in his heart, and then he remembered that Athena looked like a fairy with an ice clear jade appearance, but in fact she was an out-and-out cold-blooded animal. No, it should be a cold-blooded dragon person, but it is easy for others to forget her ruthless heart because of her appearance, and even Cheng Mo is not exempt from vulgarity.
Cheng Mo believed that Athena was really likely to kill Colonel Tamer, and while motioning for Colonel Tamer to tell the two guards to put down their guns, he exonerated Colonel Tamer, "Wendy, I just belonged to the opening trash talk session with Colonel Tamer, just like before the start of a sports game, everyone threatened each other to show their attention to the incident or the other party, and there was no too direct malice......
Colonel Tamer understood Cheng Mo's gesture, he remembered the scene that happened in the restaurant yesterday, when Heller raised the gun, the woman in front of him was also not afraid, just waved his hand lightly, and shot a dinner knife, nailing Heller's "desert warrior" to the gun, afterwards he had studied the dinner knife and gun with several people, and the conclusion was: it was just an ordinary dinner knife and an ordinary "desert warrior", and it was not something that humans could do if they wanted to pierce the gun with a meal knife.
Now it was more and more obvious to him that it was not a woman who stepped on his head, but a colossus of gods, or a monster of infinite power......
So he waved his left hand without hesitation and told his subordinates to quickly put down their guns.
Senior Colonel Tamer gave up his posture of resistance, so that the situation did not escalate, and Cheng Mo was secretly relieved in his heart.
Athena also removed her shiny black leather shoes, like a dragon letting go of the prey under her feet, she looked down at Colonel Tamer condescendingly, and said coldly: "There will be no third time." β
"No, no, Dr. Wendy, I'm not threatening you. Colonel Tamer spoke in a vague tone, and he got up propped up on the terrazzo floor, spitting out a mouthful of blood and two front teeth, "I just want to tell you that if you don't have 100% certainty, it's too late to stop, we can wait for the equipment to come before we go under the knife....."
Athena ignored Colonel Tamer's arguments and turned to walk towards the operating preparation room.
Cheng Mo glanced at Athena's back, and he didn't know whether it was sweet or bitter in his heart, the sweet thing was Athena's reliability, and the bitter thing was Athena's recklessness, but it was just a trivial matter that was revealed, and it almost developed into a big contradiction. Although he did not cause the tragedy of his previous achievements to be lost, he also had to calm the resentment that might have bred in Colonel Tamer's heart.
He stretched out his hand to the Tamer University alumni who were sitting on the ground and pulled the other party up, "There's no need to wait. After a pause, he looked at Colonel Tamer and whispered, "Please understand Dr. Wendy, you don't know her status, and you don't know how expensive it takes to ask her for an operation......!
Colonel Tamer wiped the blood from his mouth, looked at the front teeth in his palm, the fierce expression on his face flashed, and he said calmly: "As long as the operation is successful, you and Dr. Wendy will be the most honored guests of our queer people, and queer people will never be stingy to pay for their distinguished guests, let alone send you to Damascus! Even if you are going to the ends of the earth, we will do it for you." β
Cheng Mo captures the psychological changes of Colonel Tamer, and he feels that Athena's actions are not all negative, at least to make Colonel Tamer realize that they are equal sides at the negotiating table, and not one side to let the other side make an offer. However, Athena sang red face, and Cheng Mo had to sing white face, so he said sincerely: "Colonel Tamer, really don't be resentful. Believe me, it is your luck that she can give you two chances, and it is your luck that she is willing to come to the rescue of your leader..... Even the Chosen One can exist in this world, and there are some people who are really gods, and there is nothing unusual about it....."
Colonel Tamer laughed dryly.
Cheng Mo patted Colonel Tamer on the shoulder, "You hurry up and go to the dental department for a check-up, if you hurry up, the tooth can be repaired, as for the operation, you don't have to worry, the life of your leader will not be more important to us than the life of ordinary people." Colonel Tamer said meaningfully: "Then I will wait for the news of the successful operation." β
Cheng Mo didn't say anything more, twitched the corners of his mouth, smiled meaninglessly, and walked straight to the operation preparation room.
When Cheng Mo walked into the operating preparation room, Senior Colonel Tamer whispered to the dean who rushed over, "Can you hear the conversation between me and Mr. Rektzka in the corridor in the operating preparation room?"
The Dean shook his head, "I can't hear you. Dr. Wendy, who had been sitting in his chair with his eyes closed, suddenly stood up and walked out the door, and we didn't know what was going on....."
Colonel Tamer stared at the operating preparation room and nodded, thinking, "Who are they? Are they really those unpredictable Chosen One? If so, they shouldn't have come to the base with us in the first place! In any case, there are not enough troops to guard the hospital at the moment, so I have to transfer more people to ......"
ββββββββββββββββββββββ
In the operating preparation room, the doctors who had witnessed everything were silent, they sat in a small area by the door, and they didn't even dare to speak, while Athena sat alone on the sofa near the window, in a daze.
When Cheng Mo stepped aside, Athena's eyes refocused, she stood up, glanced at the doctor sitting by the door, and said lightly: "To prepare for surgery, the anesthesiologist will establish intravenous access first." β
The doctors, who had already put on their surgical gowns, were quite obedient and immediately got up and left the operating preparation room. Athena looked at the two folded surgical gowns on the coffee table and asked, "Will you wear them?"
Cheng Mo shook his head, he was rough in medical science, but he was not a real doctor.
"Then I'll help you wash your hands first. Athena walked over to the sink.
Cheng Mo followed Athena closely, and the two stood side by side in front of the sink. Athena turned on the faucet and immediately stood behind Cheng Mo. He saw Athena leaning over from the mirror, and instantly the abundant watery oppression was transmitted from his back to his brain, his body trembled unconsciously, and his hand was held by Athena's cold hands.
The operation preparation room was unusually quiet, except for the sound of running water washing over the wash basin. Athena pulled Cheng Mo's hand under the faucet and flushed it, then pressed a ball of hand sanitizer and began to rub it carefully from Cheng Mo's fingers. Inexplicably, Cheng Mo remembered the most classic scene of playing with mud in "People and Ghosts". He looked down at Athena's slender fingers like white jade, tangled and rubbed with his fingers between the foams, and a palpitating electric current spread throughout his body.
This kind of charm without too many ambiguous feelings is like lying on the glass window on a rainy day and carefully savoring the world.
Cheng Mo likes to rain.
When it rains, time enters an eerie state, with silence and slowness becoming the main theme, and occasionally a few rapid notes jumping out through the rain curtain in a hazy manner, which forms a wonderful contrast with the gentle atmosphere of the world, and time is divided into countless prioritized passages, which are mixed together to form a tick-tock human track.
Cheng Mo didn't want his imagination to run too wild, so he closed his eyes and whispered, "Thank you for telling Heller to let me sleep well." β
"I'm just thinking about the success rate of the surgery. β
Athena's pure London accent English is like a rainy song, making people just want to hide in the warm bed and have a good night's sleep.
"Then I thank you for standing up and helping me every time I was threatened. β
"It also depends on the owner to beat the dog. β
Athena's words made Cheng Mo depressed for a long time, "Didn't you say that you were a partner?
"Aren't dogs man's best buddies?"
Cheng Mo was completely speechless, in the face of Athena's sharp and somewhat excessive words, he didn't know how to deal with it, if he wanted to change people, he would definitely sneer at him, but Athena's words, he was really a little short of words, and he didn't know how to respond in order to be considered a decent return. Cheng Mo was silent, he inexplicably felt a little hurt.
It wasn't until the sound of the "whooshing" water was put to rest that he opened his eyes again, and Athena's pair of clotted soft wattles jumped into view, carefully wiping the gaps between his fingers with a sterile towel.
"Soak in ethanol for five minutes. Athena said.
Cheng Mo didn't answer, didn't nod, everything passed too fast, so fast that he hadn't had time to recognize the true feeling in his heart, and he remembered the secret love in junior high school, probably this is the tangled mood between sadness and calm.
Five minutes later, Cheng Mo returned to the coffee table, Athena picked up the surgical gown from the coffee table, first found the collar, and then identified the inside and outside, and then asked Cheng Mo to raise her hands, she raised the inside of the surgical gown and let Cheng Mo's hands insert into the cuffs. Then Athena went around behind Cheng Mo and helped tie the ties on her collar and back.
"Go in circles. Athena whispered.
Cheng Mo's obedient Athena's arms rotated 360 degrees, and the front belt of the surgical gown was tightened. He smelled the faint cold fragrance of Athena's body, and said in his heart: "How can you wear a surgical gown, you can wear the feeling of dancing." β
"Now you help me put on a surgical gown. Athena turned around and picked up another surgical gown, put it on her body with ease, Cheng Mo moved behind Athena, stared at her snow-white gooseneck, and carefully helped her tie the straps. When it was his turn to tie the belt, he did not order Athena to turn in circles, but took the belt and circled around Athena himself.
"Wearing a mask and sterile gloves is good enough to go into the operating room. Athena neatly put on her mask and gloves and walked towards the door with Cheng Mo, "Wait for everything to be under my command, when I use the 'Seven Sins Sect', you must control it well, so as not to cause accidents in the operation." β
Cheng Mo didn't speak as if he was angry.
Athena turned her head to look at Cheng Mo.
Cheng Mo put on his mask and said coldly: "You don't need to tell me. β
Athena turned around and continued walking towards the operating room. The atmosphere between the two men fell into a restless dullness, like an awkward little couple, engaged in a cold war in which whoever speaks first loses.
Two people entered the operating room without saying a word, four doctors stood by the operating table, and there were also several people standing at the observation window, and as for the patient, Dr. Adjar, had entered a state of general anesthesia, and his shaved head was also fixed on a brace.
Under the gaze of everyone, Athena calmly walked to the head that looked like a boiled egg, she first observed the marking line on the scalp with an incision, and then said coldly: "The anesthesiologist injects muscle relaxants, pay attention to the anesthesia machine." She raised her right hand, "Twenty-two large round knife." β
The dean hurriedly picked up the No. 22 scalpel from the tray, but Athena took her hand back and said without raising her head, "Let him give it." β
So the dean handed the scalpel to Cheng Mo again, Cheng Mo put the No. 22 scalpel in the palm of Athena's hand, and she began to cut her scalp along the black line on her scalp, and bright red blood came out along the straight line of the blade, Athena's hand was as steady as Mount Tai, fast and accurate, and even the line drawn on the upper frame of her head was not cut straight.
The doctors couldn't help but whisper in admiration.
Athena handed the scalpel to Cheng Mo, "Scalp clip." β
Cheng Mo took the scalpel and gave it to the dean, and then took the scalp clip from the dean's surgery and gave it to Athena. Athena ripped off her muscles and neatly secured her scalp with a scalp clip, exposing one of Dr. Hazard's skulls to the air.
The dean couldn't help but say: "We only have a hand-cranked drill here, no electric drill, or we will use it, and everyone will take turns to drill the skull." β
Athena simply ignored the chattering dean, and said in a cold voice: "Seven Sins Sect, No. 10 knife." β
These inexplicable words made the doctors at the operating table look dazed, and only Cheng Mo comprehended and conjured up the "Seven Sins Sect", turned the "Seven Sins Sect" into a golden No. 10 scalpel, and handed it to Athena.
The eyes of the group of doctors widened at the sight of the golden scalpel shining in the shadowless lamp, and Athena first made a shallow cut along the cut scalp on Dr. Eden Hazard's skull, and then she carefully deepened it, and the next step down seemed to exert a thousand strengths, but it seemed that she was lifting a weight, until she judged the thickness of the entire skull, she increased her speed slightly, as if she was carving tofu, and opened a window in the skull with full concentration.
Athena returned the "Seven Sins Sect" to Cheng Mo, "Bone Forceps." β
Cheng Mo hurriedly put away the "Seven Sins Sect", and said "biting forceps" to the dean, but the stunned dean did not react at all, and Cheng Mo could only reach out and take it himself.
Athena removed the cut skull, revealing a white membranous substance stained with blood, she put the skull in a tray on one side, turned her head to look at Cheng Mo, "Help me wipe off the sweat......
Cheng Mo shook his eyes and brains, quickly picked up a sterile towel, raised his hand and gently wiped the beads of sweat off Athena's forehead.
Athena looked at the anesthesiologist with a dull gaze, "Reduce the dosage and perform the awakening ......"
The anesthesiologist stared at Athena like a stake of consciousness, in fact, the entire operating room was silent, except for Cheng Mo and Athena, everyone looked at Athena with a misty look, as if entering a dream that could not be woken up.
Cheng Mo had to touch the dean on the side, but the dean didn't react at all, Cheng Mo could only increase his strength and pat the dean on the back.
The dean was shocked at this time, woke up and looked at Cheng Mo, and asked at a loss, "What?
"Dean, tell the anesthesiologist to lower the dose and wake up. β
"Oh my God, do you want to perform intraoperative awakening anesthesia?" the dean exclaimed, and said nervously, "Is it really possible without electronic monitoring equipment?"
"Hurry up. Athena said coldly.
"Yes! Yes!" the sweaty dean hurriedly walked over to the anesthesiologist, who had not yet come to his senses, and ordered softly.
The anesthesiologist hurriedly waved his hand, and said with fear on his face: "No, how can this be done! I can't wake up the general anesthesia technique at all, I can't do such a difficult thing!"
There was a commotion in the operating room, and the dean also panicked, turned his head to look at Athena, rolled his throat, and said with difficulty: "Our anesthesiologist has never done intraoperative general anesthesia wake-up..... What to do? Do you want to ..... Termination of Surgery ......"
"What's going on?" Colonel Tammel, who was watching out the window, asked over the radio, noticing that there was something messy in the operation. Athena frowned, walked to the anesthesia machine, and said in a cold voice, "Turn off the radio." β
The dean closed his eyes and looked desperately in the direction of the observation window, which was like letting a group of high school students conduct the assessment of doctoral students, which was also a matter of life and death.
The operating room seemed to be encroached upon by the mire, and everyone was trapped in the mud, trapped by the deep and soft mire, and could only wait helplessly to be swallowed.
Of course, Cheng Mo and Athena are still very calm.
Athena pushed away the dean who was standing next to the anesthesiologist, and said in a cold voice: "Give me all my attention, I will bear all the consequences of the operation, prepare the MAC group anesthesia sedative, remifentanil 0.02-0.09mcg/kg/min, dexmedetomidine 0.2-0.5mcg/kg/h and propofol 25-100mcg/kg/group first induce with propofol, and then inhale sevoflurane through the laryngeal mask to anesthetize ......."
I don't know if Athena's words worked, or if the doctors had become walking corpses who only knew how to follow orders, but everyone moved under Athena's orders.
The operation continued, and soon Dr. Hazard, who was unconscious, woke up in a daze.
Athena glanced at Cheng Mo and said, "Infuse the 'Seven Sins Sect' with microcurrent, you talk to him, don't let him move, let alone get excited, let him feed back all his true feelings directly to me." β
Even though Cheng Mo has experienced a lot, it is the first time to save people in the operating room, and he has deeply experienced the thrilling thrill, and he admires Athena more and more for being able to control everything so calmly in the life and death of others. Cheng Mo has been suffering from illness since he was a child, and he has a natural liking for the profession of doctor, especially the chief surgeon like Athena, who is the dream doctor of every seriously ill patient, which makes him worship Athena a little more.....
Cheng Mo took a deep breath while handing over the "Seven Sins Sect" to Athena, waved his hand at Dr. Adjar, whose scalp was lifted, and said softly, "Dr. Eden Hazard, can you see me?"
Dr. Eden Hazard, who was immobilized on the operating table, moved his chin and said in a dry voice, "Yes....."
"Don't be too nervous, we're operating on you right now, and in order to better complete the operation, we performed general anesthesia arousal during the operation, can you understand?"
Dr. Hazard smiled hard and said, "Is it amazing to wake up under general anesthesia......? I don't think there is a doctor in the whole of Syria who can do such an operation. β
"You're right. Now we need you to say what you feel, and the purpose of this surgery is to ensure that the surgery does not damage the functional area as much as possible....."
"I understand, I will fully cooperate with your ....."
ββββββββββββββββββββββββββ
As Dr. Azar became sober, the doctors were strongly comforted, and the operation proceeded in an orderly manner, because Dr. Azar himself was also an excellent doctor, so the degree of cooperation was quite high, and he accurately described his feelings, so that Athena could distinguish various sections of the brain without a microscope, and accurately cut out the diseased tissue.
When Athena finished the logarithm of the instruments, sutured the dura mater, drained it, and put the skull back, she only needed to suture the scalp and quickly complete the finishing work, Athena looked down at Dr. Adjara's pupils and made sure that it was okay, and the entire operation was complete.
"Send back to the ward. Athena straightened up and said indifferently.
There was applause in the operating room.
Athena didn't say anything, and walked out of the operating room with a cold attitude. Cheng silently followed behind Athena, feeling that the way she brandished the scalpel was really beautiful and sassy, and it was not the same handsomeness as when she wielded the sword of Perseus to harvest life, the latter was the dark and cold beauty that belonged to the god of death, and the former was a redemptive beauty full of divine brilliance.
It is hard for Cheng Mo to imagine that two completely different beauties would appear in the same person, probably half angel and half devil refers to an indescribable person like Athena......
But even so, Cheng Mo was still angry about Athena's words before the operation, "Dogs are good companions of humans", he ignored Athena's request to help him take off the surgical gown, and walked out of the operating preparation room directly, calling Heller to help Athena take off the surgical gown.
Heller, who had been very successful in the operation, could refuse this small request, and took off her surgical gown for Athena with joy, hugged Athena loudly, and then rushed to the ward.
Cheng Mo took off his surgical gown with the help of Khalid and did not speak to Athena, but went straight to Colonel Tamer. Senior Colonel Tamer talked to the dean, saying that when Dr. Hazard woke up and then talked to Dr. Hazard, he would fulfill his promise and would not break his promise......
ββββββββββββββββββββββββ
Not long after the surgery, Dr. Hazard came to his senses and felt fine. Dr. Hazard met with Cheng Mo and Athena in the hospital room and expressed his special gratitude to Athena.
Even if he had just undergone a major surgery and the disease was not completely cured, Dr. Adjar still behaved mildly and gracefully, and he lost no time in opening his mouth and said: "Dr. Hazard, Colonel Tamer promised me that as long as the operation can be successfully completed, he will send someone to send us to Damascus, and as for the medical equipment and medicines you need, we will definitely be able to send them to Syria, as for how to transport them back to your base, you have to figure out how to do it yourself......"
Dr. Adjara, with centipede-like sinuous stitches, frowned, and said to Colonel Tamer in a stern tone, "What's the matter with the medical equipment and medicines?"
Heller preemptively said: "Dad, don't blame Uncle Tamer, everything is my idea, we really have no choice, if you continue to wait, your surgery will be more and more risky..."
"So, Dr. Wendy and Dr. Rektzka weren't hired by you?" asked Dr. Hazard, annoyed.
Senior Colonel Tamer winked at him.
Cheng Mo smiled and said lightly: "Doctor Ezar, it doesn't matter how we came here, now that we are lucky enough to cure your illness, we are also willing to pay some price, as long as you don't break your promise and send us to Damascus safely." β
"You guys are really good, not only robbing people, but also blackmailing, or just be robbers and terrorists?" Dr. Hazard rebuked angrily, probably a little overexcited, and coughed violently.
Heller hurriedly pounced, shouting "Daddy" with tears in his eyes, and Colonel Tamer bowed his head in shame.
Cheng Mo didn't know if Dr. Hazard was acting or really didn't know, so he watched quietly for a while.
It took a long time for Dr. Eden Hazard to come to his senses, leaning on the pillow and saying weakly, "What a bunch of fools." After a pause, he turned his head and said apologetically, "Dr. Wendy, Dr. Rekska is really sorry, I didn't expect to be rescued in this way, it wasn't my intention, I will punish my daughter and subordinates for their mistakes, and I hope I can do something to compensate you, as for medical supplies, I don't need to trouble you......"
"Chief......" Colonel Tamer looked up, "we are indeed at fault in this matter, but it is not a bad thing for Dr. Wendy and Dr. Rektzka..."
"The Creator has not given you wisdom to use it for sophistry. Dr. Hazard said coldly.
"Chief, I have no intention of exonerating myself, please let me finish with Dr. Wendy and Dr. Rekcka. When I'm done, I'm willing to accept all punishments......"
Dr. Hazard sighed, "Say it." β
"The news about Dr. Wendy and Dr. RekΔka was bought by our spies in Latakia, the time of his departure and the license plate number he was travelling on, and the location of his accommodation in Latakia, were all sold in time slots, and not just one person, we were just one of the buyers, among them there must be the Mujahideen Brigade and the Nusra Front. It's only because we're closer to Latakia that we're able to find Dr. Wendy and Dr. Rekska first, in other words, if we hadn't been quicker, Dr. Wendy and Dr. RekΔka would have been in a bad situation whether they had encountered either the Mujahideen Force or the Jabhat al-Nusrah......" Colonel Tamer said aggrieved, "Besides, we really didn't treat Dr. Wendy and Dr. Rekska badly, and in a way, we saved Dr. Wendy and Dr. RekΔka....."
Dr. Azar casually glanced at Cheng Mo and Athena, and then whispered: "No matter what, your motives are evil, and even if evil motives bring good results, it does not mean that you are not guilty. β
Cheng Mo could roughly see that Dr. Hazard really didn't know, and he could also see that Dr. Hazard didn't mean to punish his daughter and subordinates, but only did superficial work, and there was no need to ask for more for him, so he smiled and said: "Dr. Hazard, I don't blame Heller and Colonel Tamer, they also made this decision to save you, I can completely understand it." There is a saying in Huaxia that 'if you don't fight, you don't know each other', and being able to meet in this way is also a kind of fate, and it can save your life, and it is the meaning of the creator, so there is no need to criticize them. β
Cheng Mo's persuasion relieved Dr. Hazard, he reluctantly straightened up and bowed his head, and said sincerely: "Thank you for the magnanimity of your benefactor, we queer people owe you a kindness, and we will repay it tenfold if you have the opportunity...... Still, I'm going to punish Tamer and Heller for their mistakes, which is the principle of the Queer Free Army that stands for justice. He looked sideways at Tamer and Heller, "Tamer, you violated military law and attacked without permission, and you should have been sent to a court-martial, but because this is also my responsibility, you are responsible for sending Dr. Wendy and Dr. Rektzka to Damascus, and if something happens, you will be punished with your life! If you come back successfully, you will be sentenced to one month of confinement and demoted from colonel to major.....
"Yes, Chief. Colonel Tamer did not refute again, and whispered respectfully.
"Heller. Dr. Hazard looked at his daughter with kind eyes, "You will be demoted from a second lieutenant in the front-line army to a female trainee soldier, and you will have to learn military law again in order to become a qualified soldier." β
Heller grabbed Dr. Hazard's arm and shook it gently, "Dad, can you not be demoted to a female trainee, it's too boring to be in the training ground all day." β
Doctor Azar shook his head, "Don't be lazy, I will personally evaluate you when the time comes, if you don't pass the military law and military exams, I don't think you need to be a soldier, marry early!"
"Don't, don't, I don't want to marry!" said Heller, angry.
"Then study hard and train hard. β
Heller pursed her lips and sulked beside her.
Cheng Mo originally thought that Dr. Hazard would borrow the slope to get off the donkey, but he didn't expect that he was not pretending, but heavy-handed. Cheng Mo thought to himself: Doctor Azar is really a character, but it's a pity that the queer Germans are in this situation at the moment, and if they don't have a super fierce man at the level of "great man from heaven", they still have no future at all, and they will only be slowly consumed to death in the siege.
Dr. Hazard then apologized again to Cheng Mo and Athena, promised to have Colonel Tamer prepare a convoy early tomorrow morning to take the two of them to Damascus, and ordered Tamer to escort them safely to the airport.
After receiving the letter, Cheng Mo and Athena did not stay in Dr. Eden Hazard's hospital room for long, and soon took their leave and prepared to leave.
Dr. Hazard asked Heller to accompany Cheng Mo and Athena back to the camp, and asked Heller to prepare a lively farewell ceremony, and the puffed Heller ignored his own father and led the two out of the ward.
When Colonel Tamer was left alone in the ward, Dr. Hazard, who was very weak, whispered, "Tammer, help me to lie down." β
Senior Colonel Tamer was silent and did as he was told.
"You won't blame me for punishing you too harshly, will you?"
"The subordinates don't dare, the leader must have a reason for the leader. After a pause, Colonel Tamer said puzzledly, "I just don't quite understand, are we too groveling?" These two people are not ordinary at first glance, they even have glowing scalpels, even if you don't ask them for supplies, you can buy some at a low price!"
Dr. Hazard sighed, shook his head, and whispered, "It's because they're so unusual!"
Senior Colonel Tamer couldn't help but ask, "Could it be that the chief can see who they are?"
"If there are doctors in this world who can perform craniotomy without the help of instruments, they can only come from one place........"
"Where?"
Dr. Hazard closed his eyes and said in a holy tone, "That's the holy place of our doctors!"

That night, Heller really held a "grand" dinner for Cheng Mo and Athena, and to say that the "grand dinner" was nothing more than a bonfire party that was more serious than yesterday. Cheng Mo and Athena sat in the room, silently watching a group of female soldiers set up a platform on the concrete flat ground outside the door, tables and stools were placed around the platform, and four huge iron pots were erected at the four corners of the platform.
At sunset, Heller lit the wood in the iron pot, and the flames fluttered in the sunset, like a flamenco girl in a red dress.
"The farewell party has begun! Hurry up!" Heller ran to the door of the room and cheerfully called out to Cheng Mo and Athena, completely forgetting the punishment her father had given her.
Cheng Mo got up, but didn't call Athena as usual, and walked out of the door alone. They didn't say a word after the operation, and the Cold War continued.
Coming down the steps, Heller found that Athena didn't come out, so he asked in surprise, "Uncle Rektzka, why didn't Dr. Wendy come out?"
Cheng Mo didn't look back at Athena in the room, shrugged his shoulders and said, "How do I know?"
Heller smiled mysteriously and said, "Did you quarrel?"
"Nope. Cheng Mo flatly denied it.
Heller chuckled and said, "A liar will swallow a thousand needles!"
Cheng Mo said noncommittally: "You go and call her." β
"How can you quarrel with a woman as gentle as Dr. Wendy?" Heller asked.
Cheng Mo complained in his heart: Does Athena have anything to do with the word gentle? The girl's forgetfulness is inevitably too big, she was almost stabbed to death by someone else yesterday, and today she saved her father, so she became a gentle woman?
He said helplessly: "Don't worry so much about children. β
Heller "shhh
Cheng Mo said angrily: "The priceless cola formula has been given to you, and you are embarrassed to ask for compensation." β
Heller was still not thick-skinned enough, and was speechless by Cheng Mo's words, so he could only snort coldly and said, "Stingy, help you for the sake of the formula." β
Cheng Mo stopped and waited, and after a few moments, he heard Heller's persuasion and forcibly dragged Athena out of the room. He thought, "What's wrong with me?" If it's anger, why don't I just say to Athena, "I'm not happy for you to say this, it's an insult to me?" If I'm not angry, why do I care so much about it? I expect Athena to take the initiative to admit my mistake......
He heard Athena and Heller's footsteps, and the two of them passed by him, and Heller turned around and grimaced at Chengmo, and said triumphantly, "Uncle Rykcka, you're terrible, and you'll have to sit with Khalid and Dr. Wendy and me." β
Cheng Mo looked at Athena's slender back and was secretly disappointed, he thought to himself: "She won't tell lies, maybe you are just a licking dog in the eyes of others." β
This thought made Cheng Mo feel that everything was boring, and he found Khalid's place and sat next to Khalid. When the sun set down to the horizon, Heller stood on the stage, picked up the megaphone and first solemnly introduced Cheng Mo and Athena, saying that the two were doctors with extraordinary medical skills, and exaggerated the introduction of the two to help several patients have undergone surgery, after a round of warm applause, Heller rushed the ducks to the shelves and called Cheng Mo to come up and say a few words.
Cheng Mo shook his head and refused to go on stage, and Heller was not reluctant, and announced the start of the dinner with a smile. A variety of barbecues, pastries and teas were brought to the women in colorful Saudi-style dresses, including a Coke that Heller had just made today.
After eating and drinking for more than half an hour in laughter, Heller, wearing a pink veil and gold chain ornaments, and a pink gauze skirt, came to the center of the stage, and a man in a Saudi robe carried a tape recorder to play the melodious Saudi music, and the deep drums sounded, and Heller also stepped on the last bloody remnant sun to start dancing with the music.
Saudi dance is very different from the passionate Spanish dance, it is sometimes slow and sometimes intense. The bonfires at the four corners of the stage are in full bloom like flowers, and Heller is a colorful butterfly wandering in the sea of flowers.
Khalid beside Cheng Mo smiled and applauded again and again. Cheng Mo was not interested at all, but found a gap and inadvertently glanced at Athena, who was separated by a table beside him, to see what she was doing.
When the sun goes down completely, the program is more colorful, there are sand dances, fire-breathing performances, acrobatics, and firerope throwing performances, especially the female soldiers, all of whom can sing and dance, and dedicate a wonderful performance.
Among them, Cheng Mo was most impressed by the two sisters wearing red and blue gauze skirts performing a traditional Shawudi belly dance, the silver moonlight was like washing, and the blazing fireworks inlaid them with an ambiguous warm light, and they swayed their plump waists in the monotonous, slow, and long Shawudi drums, like the undulating waves of the sea, and like the forest of mountains and mountains.
The cool night, the warm flames, the soothing drums, the bewitching limbs, all of which are dazzlingly set off by the continuous backdrop of the ancient city and the minaret, these wonderful elements are intertwined to form a charming and romantic Saudi atmosphere.
Not only was Khalid dazzled, but even Cheng Mo had to admire that this was a real dance art.
However, the more exciting the performance, the more Cheng Mo felt pitiful for these female soldiers, and when the performance was over, the two girls took off their veils in the evening breeze, revealing their immature faces, he couldn't help but sigh in a low voice: "You are still so young, you can obviously become an artist, why do you want to be a soldier?"
Khalid glanced at Cheng Mo very strangely, and explained as a matter of course: "Of course you have to come to be a soldier, not a soldier, they have to marry at this age!" He said with a wry smile, "My sister is also about to get married, and now someone has come to the door to propose, and my mother is still in a hurry to marry her, now I have to leave Syria quickly, otherwise I really don't know what else to do....."
Cheng Mo asked with a shocked face, "Isn't your sister only nine years old?"
"Actually, it's eight years old, Afafu will only turn nine in May, and next year will be ten years old, and he will be old enough to marry......"
Even though Cheng Mo always knew that Saudi Arabia had such a custom, he never thought that until now, it would still be like this. He remembered the childish and innocent face of Afaf, and whispered, "Isn't it too young?"
Khalid said helplessly, "Of course I think so. But this is the custom in our country, many girls are married at the age of eight......" he picked up the coke on the table, and took a long sip of it sadly, "When there was no war, the situation was a little better, and now many people have to marry off girls for a small dowry, so that there will be fewer people in the family to eat...... Even worse are the girls who were sold to the black market, they were basically bought by the Saudis and Europas, and last year someone came to my house to ask for a price, and wanted to pay for the Afaf, my mother almost agreed, but I resolutely did not allow it, and beat the person away. β
Cheng Mo remembered that Colonel Tamer had said that someone had betrayed him and Athena in Latakia, and he thought that according to Khalid's performance, it should not be Khalid, but at this moment he had to suspect Khalid's mother or grandfather.
Khalid didn't know what Cheng Mo was thinking, and smiled bitterly, "This is the reason why I am in a hurry to make money and want to smuggle." If I can't make any money, I'd rather send Afaf here as a female soldier, at least she can have a certain amount of freedom....."
Cheng Mo remembered the tombstone of the female soldier next to the temple, and he whispered: "It's too dangerous to be a female soldier." β
Khalid sneered: "If you marry at the age of ten, there are not many people who can survive, and it is great luck to meet a better in-law, and if you meet a not-so-good in-law, you will either be a coolie or be tortured to death, so it is better to come and be a soldier....."
Cheng Mo didn't know what to say, he also picked up his cup and drank a big sip of cool Coke, the performance on the stage continued, and several girls were singing a Saudi folk song with the accompaniment of musical instruments.
The night is as cool as water, and the song is poignant.
"How many poor people are there in the world,
There is no place to stand,
can only enjoy the shade under the human fence.
I'm one of them,
Exhausted,
Sell your labor all day long,
Life is getting more and more bizarre,
The weight on his shoulders,
It's always going to go unabated.
Others are happy and leisurely,
carefree
I've never lived a day like I.
They have plenty of food and clothing,
Splendor
Enjoy it for a lifetime.
Everyone is the blood of the father and the mother,
I and he are one flesh,
There is no difference in nature;
But there is a chasm between them,
It's like the difference between wine and vinegar.
I'm not talking nonsense,
Just because you are a judge,
I hope you judge fairly. β
