It's not that hard to open a hospital in another world, right?

Chapter 822 Kind Mage, Please Don’t Treat Me

While the God of War Temple was discussing, Mrs. Alva of the Confusion School also called her subordinates to discuss.

Naturally, there was only one topic for discussion: should we send a few cases to try out Master Nordmark?

"Isn't it necessary?"

Beatrice, one of Mrs. Alva's favorite female disciples, frowned and said:
"The Earl of Ostend will definitely send the patient over. Let's search for it ourselves. If any child turns out to be bad, wouldn't it be harming our compatriots in vain?"

"Then let's send a few patients there first." A magician of the Necromancer immediately retorted:

"Looking at the paper, the first batch of operations will always have problems of one kind or another. Humans are different from animals. If problems that don't occur in animals, who knows if they will occur in humans?"

Pity them necromancers, they have too much experience in surgery.Often, if the experiments are done well on animals, if they are tested on humans, they will dare to die for you to see; if they are well tested on ordinary people, they will continue to die for you to see when they are used on extraordinary people...

In the intelligence team, a magician of the conjuration department stared at the void with his fingers flying, as if he had been weaving something.He said in a daze:

"When the earl sends the patients over, and five out of ten patients die, or even one out of ten patients dies, there is no need to count on this cooperation."

That's true.In the meeting room, a group of magicians doing secret work nodded lightly:

Whoever's child is distressed.Even if one of the ten patients sent over died, the earl would not dare to gamble on the success rate of his own child.If you send ten sick children with hunchbacks, you have to return ten good children who are alive and kicking.

Then, the only way here is to find a way to find a batch of cases for clinical trials...

"Well, about medical treatment... oh, the application for clinical trials, let's run it first, in the name of relevant diplomatic needs." After a moment of silence, Mrs. Alva came to a conclusion:

"Beatrice, you go and run. First communicate with Master Nordmark to see what content he must reflect in the application for the experiment."

"Yes!" The female disciple bowed to accept the order.She lowered her head silently, hiding the bitter look on her beautiful face:
Another errand to run, another night to write a report.What's more painful is that Master Nordmark always has many inexplicable requirements when it comes to experimental applications...

The parliament's requirements for the application of medical experiments are relatively loose. Basically, as long as someone applies for it and someone voluntarily participates in it.Paid to hire patients?no problem!
Let patients who owe debts pay off their debts?normal!

Buy slaves directly?Buy as long as you can!

Put the patient to death?If you die, you die, no big deal, as long as your previous application for the experiment and the contract you signed with the patient mentioned that the patient would be at risk of death.If it is really put to death, the parliament will absolutely ignore it.

The only taboo is to forcibly conduct research without the patient's permission.On this point, the parliament and various factions, nobles, wealthy businessmen, various power groups, and the city hall reached an agreement after repeated consultations and repeated see-saw.

As for the requirements of Master Nordmark, that is much more.First of all, the patient must be voluntary, the person himself, not the seller who sold him, or even the parents of the child who benefited from it;

Secondly, all patients must be fully informed of the purpose, methods, expected benefits and potential risks of the research, and possible discomfort caused by the research, and must be informed of the right to refuse to participate in the research, or to withdraw their previous consent at any time;
Third, the report must repeatedly evaluate and prove that the interventions used in the experiment, the risks associated with the research have been fully evaluated, can be satisfactorily controlled, and will not outweigh the potential benefits...

When helping to write the report before, Master Nordmark threw her a whole compendium and said, "Just write it like this."She studied it desperately for three days, and she could understand every word, but she didn't understand anything when spelling it.

Faced with every sentence in it, she wanted to shout: "Speak human words!"

Beatrice accepted the teacher's order with tears in her eyes.Mrs. Alva turned her eyes around and looked at the necromancer on the right:
"Then, you are responsible for finding related cases? The first batch... find ten first?"

The necromancer took up the task with confidence.Isn't it easy to find a few little hunchbacks.Go around in the poorhouse, and go around in the slums to eat relief food at regular intervals.Ten hunchbacked children, still can't find them?
Then, reality hit him hard.

He went around the workhouse and the crowd raised by the necromantic department, but there was nothing.

I went to the slums and turned around again, but nothing.

Randomly asked the managers of a few workhouses, as well as a few poor peasant women, and got exactly the same answer:
"How can a child who is born with a disability survive?"

"This kind of child can't work when he grows up. Who can afford such a mouth?"

"It's probably thrown away after birth, right?"

"It seems that I have heard that there are some who are sold. However, it is definitely impossible for a family like ours to support it."

"Maybe a rich family can afford it?"

The necromancer looked around blankly.Seeing that the five days were up, he had no choice but to meet Master Edgar, report the situation, and ask for instructions:
"Do you want to provide cases in another way?"

"How to say?" Master Edgar lay in front of a skull, staring at the lines inside the skull with relish.In his eyes, those runes intertwined with lines are much more interesting than how to find a few patients:

"What do you want to change?"

"Go to the newspaper to ask for cases? Please ask the magician of the prophecy department to help find it. Where can there be such patients? Or, can we make a few ourselves?"

He suggested an idea, and Master Edgar shook his head.At the end, Master Edgar pushed the skull in front of him and shook his head:

"I definitely don't need to think about making a few. With Gretel's temperament, if you dare to make a few, he dares to hit the Black Crow Swamp directly. Forget it, I'd better ask Mrs. Alva..."

Since she said to provide patients, she should know some related channels?

Madame Alva did know.Magicians of the Confusion Department often go deep into the folks and go to some taverns, theaters, caravans and other places to perform, so they can learn more about certain things.She pointed out a clear path with certainty:
"Look at the circus."

"what?"

"There are always some dwarfs in the circus, right? There are always some people who are born with weird shapes, right? And the children they bought, trained them to drill into the wine jar, or kept them in the jar? Yes, there are others Some of the gangs will buy children..."

Master Edgar floated out without a word.This kind of thing is really uncomfortable to hear.

Although they deal with the dead more than the living in the Black Crow Swamp, except for a few perverts with twisted and dark minds who take pleasure in killing, most of them will not do this to innocent people!

He rushed directly to the city hall, asking for a list of circuses, mobile caravans, etc. that have performed or are performing in Nevis in the past month.It's unnecessary if it's too early, I don't know where I went, it's troublesome to find it.

Then, Master Edgar cast out his disciples and grandchildren.Not enough, I went to the Emergency Management Department, and then to the City Guards, please help find someone——

A week later, in front of Gretel, tall and short, crooked, there were eleven dwarves lined up.The necromancer who brought them pointed forward graciously:

"These are all cases that fit your needs, Master Nordmark! We have checked with your method, and they are all! The spine is all crooked!"

Gretel slowly lowered his gaze.Among the eleven patients, some have immature faces, some have weathered faces; some still look like children, and some are already adults.

The tallest one didn't reach his shoulders, and the shortest one could only sit cross-legged, with weak hands and feet.Seeing his gaze fixed, the Necromancer bowed slightly:

"This is the 'man in the altar', who raises the abducted child in the jar, and when he performs to the public, he says that he was born like this. It is very vicious, yes, very vicious. The head of the circus troupe has been We're sent to prison."

But sending him to prison cannot make up for the damage done to the child's life.Gretel looked over one by one, and squatted down in front of a seven or eight-year-old girl in a bright red dress:
"What's your name?"

"Leah." The little girl bowed timidly, "Master Mage, they call me Leah."

"You hunchback...was it born like this, or did you become like this later?"

"I don't know, my lord mage."

Leah shook her head vigorously, her messy blond hair flicked from left to right, a string of water droplets splashed out and landed on Gretel's shoe.Obviously, before she came to the hospital, she had just been washed and washed in a hurry, and her hair hadn't had time to dry.

Leah gave a soft cry of fear, and immediately knelt down to wipe Gretel's shoes.Gretel raised her hand lightly, and two mage hands flew out from left and right, gently lifting her up:

"Leah, if I say, I can cure your hunchback, would you like it? - There may be some dangers in the process, and there may be a possibility of failure or paralysis, but I am willing to try my best to cure it..."

"I am willing! Sir, I am willing!" Before she finished speaking, Liya couldn't wait to answer.The voice was sharp and high-pitched, trembling slightly, as if suppressing some fear.At the same time, several other hunchbacks were also scrambling to talk:
"We do!"

"We are willing!"

"Mr. Master, do your best! It doesn't matter if it's dangerous!"

Gretel frowned slowly.This is not normal, he thought, this is not normal.

The patients he had seen in his previous life would hesitate again and again about potentially dangerous treatments.Even in this life, patients who can make decisions for themselves will always have tension and fear.

He took a deep breath, smiled and nodded to the necromancer who brought someone, and called for someone to entertain him to rest.He took Liya's hand, took her to sit next door, and poured her a glass of honey water.

After the little girl held the glass and sipped the whole glass of honey water one gulp, Gretel asked slowly:

"Leah, can you go home? Are there parents?"

"No, my lord.—I grew up in a circus for as long as I can remember."

"How's the circus doing now?"

"They went on to the next place, sir. The gentleman in the black robe bought me."

Gretel frowned slightly.The circus is gone, a little girl, what can I do in the future?Without a home, should I be sent to an orphanage?

"So, if I could cure you, would you like it?"

"...Master, after you cure me, will you take me in and give me a job?"

Gretel was silent.How does such a small child work?Washing dishes, washing clothes, mopping the floor in the hospital?
His moment of silence had already given the little girl the answer.Leah carefully put the honey water back in place, jumped off the chair, and bowed deeply:
"Thank you for your grace, kind mage. But if you can't take me in and give me a job, then please don't treat me.——In this way, I can find another circus and rely on myself The show lives on..."
