Chapter 111 108. You Can Be "Discharged" Tomorrow
Carvey thought this conversation would not go well.

Nora had indeed murdered someone, and although the crime was not fatal, it was inevitable, and she would have to spend a few years in prison anyway.Carvey knew there was a risk in his meddling, but as the only eyewitness and Nora's surgeon, he felt compelled to defend himself on the sidelines.

The whole thing wasn't fair to the girl, and it wasn't fair to the cesarean section he had.

Carvey was ready to fail, and if there was even the slightest unpleasantness in the conversation, he would immediately hit the brakes and change the subject.Nora's caesarean section was important to him, but not to the point of rivalry with the king.

However, things turn around, and sometimes seemingly difficult things will always become very simple inadvertently.

With the help of Queen Elizabeth, Franz agreed very readily, as if he would go all out to do what the Queen wanted to do.

The amnesty was first notified to Carvey verbally, and after the forest hunt was over, it was written as a simple memo and delivered to the police station by the head of the guard [1], and the formally signed document is estimated to take two days to arrive .

Anyway, at least Nora was safe, and Carvey had one less thing to worry about.

After the dinner that day, he went back to the hospital to see the child who fell into the water first.The effect of belladonna and calomel is very good. Except for some dry mouth, there is no other uncomfortable place, and the mental state has returned to before falling into the water.

"How about pee?"【2】

"pretty good."

"how?"

"a lot of."

"What about poop?"

"Not bad."

"That's good." Carvey recorded the two stools in the medical record, and then touched his forehead. "The child is sweating a little. If the situation allows tomorrow, both medicines can be stopped."

"Thank you doctor."

A family of three came to Vienna for vacation, and the child's accidental falling into the water disrupted the plan.

Now Remit has recovered as usual, and the parents hope to be discharged from the hospital as soon as possible: "I don't know when he will be discharged from the hospital?"

Considering the delayed pneumonia, Carvey suggested that they should be observed in the hospital for two days: "Take another two days. Today is the first day, and tomorrow is the second day. If you are lucky, you will be discharged from the hospital on the third day without any new symptoms." Yes. If you are unlucky, your body temperature will rise significantly in the next two days."

The parents were very dissatisfied with the hospital environment: "Dr. Carvey, it doesn't matter if you stay for two days, but the conditions here are too bad, why don't you let us go to the internal medicine department instead."

The Municipal General Hospital is a charity hospital open to civilians, and there are everyone in the ward, so it is inevitable to be messy.Surgery also comes with festering wounds, and the smell will definitely be more unpleasant, but it is still much better than internal medicine.

"There are many lung diseases in the internal medicine department, which is very bad for Rimet's health."

"How about the transfer?"

"Greyz?"

"There are single room suites."

"If they are willing to do what I tell them, then there is no problem." Carvey is naturally willing to think more about the patient and his family, but that needs to be based on maintaining the patient's health. "But if they dare to mess around, I don't recommend you Transfer to another hospital, it hurt him."

The parents were willing to believe in Carvey, but they couldn't bear the bad environment here, so they decided to leave the hospital after discussion.

"Okay, I can leave early tomorrow morning." Carvey was very helpless, and wrote the content that needs attention on the note, "If Remit feels uncomfortable, please come to the hospital as soon as possible, including shortness of breath, Chest tightness, shortness of breath, elevated body temperature, repeated coughing and expectoration, and chest pain."

Father accepted the note and thanked him repeatedly.

"Please do as I tell you."

"sure."

After checking Remit, it was Nora who had just returned to the ward from the police station.

The so-called enemy of an enemy is a friend. At this time, she has already become one with Alphonse.The middle of the ward was surrounded by a few beds, and the middle was filled with wine and food from the Roshshuat restaurant.

The two not only shared their experiences in using kitchen knives, but also verbally attacked Li Ben in the corner repeatedly: "When I first saw him, I couldn't express how disgusting I was. So many enemies."

"The main reason is that the mouth is too cheap."

"He's not just being mean to me."

"It's just a guy who eats soft and fears hard, there is no hope." Alphonse sighed, and filled the wine for all the patients present, "It's a pity that the sword I stabbed in front of the restaurant failed to pierce through it." His chest, otherwise it wouldn't have driven Miss Nora to her death."

"It's a good thing that my cuts were crooked, and it gave Mr. Alphonse a chance to take revenge again."

"After all, Dr. Carvey is powerful enough. Who would have thought that such a fatal injury could be saved."

"Yeah, I certainly wouldn't be alive without Dr. Carvey."

Alphonse never liked nonsense, so he reached out to grab the wine glass and knocked on the table: "Thousands of words are poured into the wine glass, let's salute the great Dr. Kavey!"

Everyone toasted: "To the great Dr. Carvey!!!"

"Okay, what time is it, do you still drink?" Carvey stood aside, pinching the medical record book in his hand, "I told you before, try not to touch alcohol during the period after the operation, and don't drink alcohol. Listen, right?"

Several people laughed and drank it all, and then put the hospital bed back to its original place: "It's all gone, it's all gone."

"Monsieur Alphonse, how's your ass?"

"Very good, very good, I think I can go back to work in the restaurant now."

"In terms of time, it should be almost the same, but the operation was performed by Mr. Ignatz, so he has to decide." Carvey said, "I will talk to him in the morning and see how the wound heals, if the situation permits."

"No, I'm not leaving." Alphonse put away the bottle and said with a smile, "I'm very happy in the hospital."

"Okay, you have the final say."

Kavi knew that he was worried about Li Ben's escape for the duel, and he had persuaded him too many times, but unfortunately he couldn't listen.That being the case, Kavi didn't force it, turned around and walked to Nora's hospital bed, lifted the quilt to block everyone's sight: "Show me how the wound is."

"it is good."

Nora pulled up her clothes to reveal her stomach, and the incision that Sears had cut open, operated by herself, and that Herman had sewed up at the end was not bad.There was only a small amount of blood on the bandage, not too much tissue fluid leaked out, and the sutures didn't break apart, it was perfect.

"The wound fits well, and if there are no accidents, I can be discharged from the hospital in two days."

"Really?" Nora was very satisfied with the result, "My body should be able to work after being discharged from the hospital, right?"

"In theory, it's not a big problem." Carvey said with a smile, "But the maid's workload is not small, I think it's better to rest at home for a while before going."

"The Earl's family is short of manpower, as long as there is no problem." After that night, Nora became a lot more cheerful as if she had changed, "The Countess promised to give me 20 crowns a month, including board and lodging. So kind to me."

Carvey didn't expect Mariana to take her in either.

However, considering that the earl has been fighting outside, there are not many servants at home, so it is reasonable to hire a few maids temporarily.

He checked the wounds of the other patients, and finally it was Li Ben who was in the corner: "Mr. Li Ben, show me the wound."

After the debridement that day, Li Ben's body, which was on the verge of collapse, was finally pulled back by Kawei.The body temperature gradually returned to normal, and the festering and smelly wound seemed to heal a lot.

It's a pity that none of these can change his almost collapsed mood.

A few days ago, Mick rejected his request to be discharged from the hospital. There was not only Alphonse in the ward, but now there was also Nora. It was simply the Avengers.And he has no right to speak here, his "deeds" are spread everywhere in the hospital, not only to be surrounded by people watching the show, ridiculed, even the nurses don't have much good looks towards him.

"Doctor Carvey, do you know how I feel right now?"

Li Ben hated and was grateful to the young doctor in front of him. What he hated was that he was too vicious, but what he was grateful for was that he saved his life.Now that I'm surrounded by people with strange yin and yang, I can only say to him if I hold back my stomach: "Enough is enough, I'm really fed up, let me go out of the hospital soon, please."

"It's useless to beg me." Carvey rolled up his sleeves after looking at the neck wound, "It's not up to me to decide whether to leave the hospital, nor Mick, but you."

"I?"

"It's your body, to be precise, it's the wound on your body." Carvey looked at the two wounds on his arm and nodded to express his satisfaction. "As long as the wound is fine, I will naturally let you out of the hospital."

"But I'm driving myself crazy living here."

"Don't worry, you are still far from 'crazy', because a lunatic never says he is going crazy." Carvey lifted his quilt, "If you insist that you are crazy, I can help you contact the city mental hospital, and I've heard the treatment there is very 'effective'."

Li Ben knew what the mental hospital was like, so he quickly shook his head: "I think it's better to forget it."

"Since you're not crazy, take off your pants quickly."

"Oh"

Li Ben showed the bandage on his left thigh, and continued: "I am also a Prussian knight after all. I have made military achievements in the front line and received honors in Berlin. I have never been humiliated like this. If I were in Berlin, I would never be like this." Attitude, I will definitely find the security guards in the city to arrest them all!"

"Mr. Li Ben, the times have changed." Carvey untied the bandage and said, "This worldly title can only scare children, let alone you are a Berliner."

Li Ben knows his situation, and the only thing he can rely on now is Kawei: "Dr. Kawei, I know you are kind-hearted, so let's be more accommodating. I just want to be discharged from the hospital now, and I can give as much as I want. As long as I can be discharged, Money is not an issue! If not, I can give you something else, a woman? A house? Or a collection?"

Carvey looked at the wound on his leg and didn't speak.

"what happened?"

"I think you can indeed be 'discharged' tomorrow."

This is the best news Li Ben heard this week: "Really?"

"It's true, but it's not No. 73 Basinger Street, but the surgical theater of the Riverside Theater." Carvey put down the bandage in his hand, his face was solemn, "This is also considered discharge, isn't it."

"I want surgery?" Li Ben's head buzzed, "Why do I need surgery? What kind of surgery?"

"The wound was reinfected, the skin was red and swollen, and there was some pus." Carvey said helplessly, "Debridement has not achieved very good results, and debridement now will only further enlarge the incision, and the possibility of ulceration again is very high. , is also dangerous."

Li Ben was aware of the seriousness of the problem and understood what he had to face in this situation, but he still wanted to see Kawei say the word himself: "What kind of surgery am I going to do?? ?”

"Your left leg needs to be amputated, Mr. Li Ben."

Ignatz's mornings have always been particularly dull since Carvey's active night rounds.The situation of each patient is held in the hands of Kawei. Whether it is surgery, conservative treatment, hospitalization for observation or planned to be discharged, it is written into the medical records.

At the beginning, Ignatz would be like the parents who checked the homework, helping to correct a pair of answers and correct mistakes.

But as time went by, he got tired of it. After all, Kawei's answer sheet was not bad, so what's the difference between checking and not checking.

"Nora, you'll be discharged in 2 days."

"Alphonse, he was refused to be discharged from the hospital. He is staying in the hospital for observation."

"Li Ben."

Ignatz frowned when he saw Li Ben's name: "Amputation?"

"Well, my debridement failed. I saw his wound festered badly last night. It has penetrated deep into the muscle layer and needs to be amputated as soon as possible." Carvey was very calm in the face of failure, "Ulceration is a matter of probability. No matter how thorough the debridement is, it is hard to escape the claws of festering, so it must be cut off."

"Okay, cut!"

Ignatz signed his name on the "amputation" doctor's order: "Who will do it?"

"Let me do it."

"Where's Herman?"

"He's going to school this morning, and he won't be back until the afternoon." It's not that Karvey doesn't give him a chance, but Li Ben has a lot to do with it. Now that he has obtained Ignatz's permission for the operation, he is also responsible for himself to amputate as soon as possible. to prevent further deterioration."

"Okay, he's your patient, you can decide the time and the surgeon." Ignatz put Li Ben's medical records aside, "It just so happens that Sears' operation is also happening in the theater this afternoon, let's go and see it together. .”

Carvey thought about it for a while, but he always felt that something was wrong: "Forget it, I still don't want to go, school will start next week, I need to make more preparations."

"What do you need to prepare for the start of school, and besides, I have already bought the tickets, which are not cheap." Ignatz shook the two yellow and white strips of cardboard in his hand, "This is a rare opportunity, you will not give me face Bar."

Carvey had no choice but to agree: "What kind of surgery?"

"It says 'laparotomy' on the sign, but no etiology." Ignatz looked at the name of the surgery on the paper and guessed, "The patient may have chronic abdominal pain, and the medicine and enema didn't work. I couldn't help but agreed to have the surgery."
