I'm playing whack-a-mole in Siberia

Chapter 265 The perfect solution

The police arranged by the Japanese government to protect Nikolai became the assassins of Nikolai. This kind of ridiculous thing would only happen in Japan.

After the gunfire, the scene was chaotic, and the Japanese people who had just waved and cheered to Nikolai on the roadside were in chaos.

Someone panicked and rushed towards the rickshaw that Nicholas was riding.

George the Greek shooed away the crowd by waving the bamboo cane he had purchased, preventing others from approaching Nicholas.

George finally arrived, and the two Georges and Nicholas's guards protected Nicholas.

Nicholas's wound was not big, but the location was critical, near his right temple.

The accompanying doctor Rambach quickly bandaged Nicholas after a brief examination.

The armored vehicle finally arrived, and Nikolai and the two Georges got on board. The armored vehicle quickly drove to the port of Kobe, 50 kilometers away, seeking protection from the Siberian fleet.

"how do you feel?"

George is worried about Nikolai's condition.

"I feel okay-"

Nicholas was in a trance.

"How could this happen? Who is the assassin?"

George of Greece was in shock.

"The assassin is a policeman!"

George saw it clearly.

"Bastard! We will punish them with war!"

George of Greece was furious, how dare they!

The incident happened suddenly. When Nikolai arrived at the Port of Kobe, the Port of Kobe did not even know that Nikolai had been assassinated.

George waited for Nikolai to board the "Dolgorukov" before his heart rested in his stomach.

The next step is to wait for the explanation from the Japanese government.

To be fair, George did not think that this incident was instigated by the Japanese government. The Japanese government did not dare to do this.

Europe is not just a royal family. As long as the family has the ability, after the family members come of age, they will arrange a trip around the world to broaden their horizons.

The Russian Empire was one of the most powerful countries in the world.

Not to mention Japan in the world, if you include the colonies of European countries in Asia, Japan's national power is not even among the top five in Asia. If you dare to provoke the Russian Empire, you are seeking death.

But it doesn’t matter whether it was instigated by the Japanese government. Since this happened, the Japanese government must give Nicholas a reasonable explanation.

George was not prepared to stay in Japan, so he ordered the "Dolgorukov" to immediately light the fire and weigh anchor, and sail to Vladivostok.

So Mutsu Munemitsu, who rushed to Kobe Port in a hurry, missed the opportunity.

"George, it's a bit embarrassing for us to leave like this, isn't it?"

Nikolai's recovery speed was fast. Not long after the "Dolgorukov" left Kobe, Nikolai was in high spirits.

"Are you going to stay as a hostage?"

George wasn't just using the topic as an excuse, there was no way this matter could just be settled like this.

Tsuda Sanzo in another time and space was not even sentenced to death, but was sentenced to life imprisonment for attempted murder.

This verdict also proved that Japan has become a country governed by the rule of law, and was widely praised by European countries led by the United Kingdom.

George doesn't know if Japan is a country ruled by law.

But George knew why Japan's move was praised by European countries.

Not only are the Russian Empire outnumbered, but it is also the enemy of the entire world. Apart from Romania, it has no reliable allies.

Britain did everything possible to restrict the Russian Empire, so how could it let this opportunity pass?

Therefore, the judicial independence advocated by the Japanese is based on the premise of British support.

Do you still have the nerve to brag about the independence of the judiciary?

Yes, that's what the Japanese think.

Nicholas was the crown prince of the Russian Empire, and the news of his assassination in Japan quickly spread around the world.

Ya Er was furious and issued a war threat to Japan, saying that if Japan could not handle the matter properly, it would punish Japan with war.

The Japanese government also responded quickly. On the day of the incident, Interior Minister Saigo Nakamichi resigned, taking the blame. Prime Minister Masayoshi Matsukata ordered all parties to conduct a joint investigation to thoroughly investigate the matter.

At this time, no one was discussing how to punish the assassin. Everyone thought that Tsuda Sanzo was dead.

Not only did Tsuda Sanzo not die, but he was also sent to the hospital for treatment. Japanese Minister of Justice Yamada Akiyoshi personally went to the hospital to inquire about Tsuda Sanzo's motives.

"There must be a war between the Empire and Russia. In the name of traveling around the world, the Russian Crown Prince is actually spying. I am a samurai, and this is what I should do!"

Tsuda Sanzo vowed to do so without any regrets.

Someone felt sorry for Tsuda Sanzo.

The Japanese's traditional skill of apologizing really didn't come about later. It has already begun to take shape now.

After Nikolai was assassinated, the Japanese government and opposition parties sent more than 10,000 condolence and apology telegrams to Nikolai and St. Petersburg.

Some people even took the initiative to go to the Siberian fleet station to confess their sins and ask for forgiveness from the Russian Empire.

Mutsu Munemitsu chased Nikolai to Vladivostok the next day, hoping to meet Nikolai and express condolences and apology to Nikolai.

Nicholas did not see Mutsu Munemitsu, and George repeated the Tsar's war threats to Mutsu Munemitsu.

"If you don't give a perfect solution to this matter, you'd better prepare for battle from now on."

Mutsu Munemitsu frowned, he didn't know what met the definition of "perfect".

If George were to define it, then it would be perfect if Nicholas also slashed the Emperor.

The Japanese would definitely not accept this plan, so George stopped talking nonsense.

"Duke, I deeply regret this incident——"

Mutsu Munemitsu also tried to reconcile.

"Are you here to express your regret to me?"

George interrupted Mutsu Munemitsu's ramble without even bowing. This was not an apologetic attitude. "Why don't you let me chop your crown prince with a knife, so that we can understand this matter?"

Mutsu Munemitsu's expression changed drastically, he never expected that George would make such a request.

"It seems like you can't be the master. That's good. You can go back and invite someone who can be the master to come over."

George sees off guests.

After Nikolai arrived in Vladivostok, he was immediately sent to Vladivostok Hospital for further examination.

"There is no major problem with His Highness's health. The wound will recover in a few days."

Jiang Haiyang personally re-bandaged Nicholas.

Nikolai was very curious about the Vladivostok Hospital. There was no such a large hospital in St. Petersburg.

“Vladivostok Hospital provides services to everyone, ordinary people can get sick too——”

George was proud that Vladivostok, at least in terms of medical care, far surpassed St. Petersburg.

Well, that's an understatement.

It should be said that the medical level in Vladivostok far exceeds that of all cities in this era.

Including London and Paris.

“How much does it cost to build a hospital like this?”

Nikolai is no longer the heartless Nikolai. This is what growth means.

"It's not a question of how much money is spent, but a lack of suitable doctors. So far, Vladivostok Hospital only has a dozen doctors."

George stopped talking about how difficult it was to train a doctor, lest Nicholas ask for it.

The standards of doctors in Vladivostok are different from those of doctors in St. Petersburg.

Doctor from St. Petersburg——

Nikolai's accompanying doctor Rambach was, in the words of Vladivostok, the royal physician.

Nicholas was just watching the excitement.

Vladivostok Hospital brought Rambach a real shock.

After Nikolai was sent to Vladivostok Hospital, Vladivostok Hospital took over.

Rambach had nothing to do, so he wandered around the Vladivostok Hospital, so Rambach came to the front lobby of the Vladivostok Hospital.

The hall is spacious and the floor is paved with bluestone, which is non-slip and smooth.

There was a schematic diagram of Vladivostok Hospital at the entrance of the hall. Rambach counted it and found that there were more than ten departments, many of which Rambach had never even heard of.

This is normal. Modern medicine has just begun. The British improved the nursing technology for wounded soldiers and were able to create a goddess with a lamp. Vladivostok Hospital was far ahead in segmenting its departments.

Gynecology, pediatrics, etc., it is easy to know what they are doing just from the literal meaning.

But internal medicine, psychiatry, acupuncture, rehabilitation, Rambach really didn’t know what they were doing.

"May I ask where you feel uncomfortable?"

The guide lady was polite, but seeing that Rambach didn't respond to Russian, she continued to use English.

"What is this for?"

Rambach is most curious about acupuncture.

Regarding mental recovery, although Rambach doesn't know the work content, he can more or less understand it from the literal meaning.

Acupuncture is completely Rambach's knowledge blind spot.

"This is acupuncture, using needles to treat disease."

The explanation from the guide lady made Rambach even more confused.

The guidance lady was only responsible for guidance and didn't know much about acupuncture, so Rambach simply went to the acupuncture department to see it in person.

In the lobby of Vladivostok Hospital, because there are many green plants, the air is relatively fresh and there is no special smell.

Walking into the treatment area, Rambach smelled the strong smell of herbal medicine——

Rambach had no idea it was herbal.

The person in charge of the Acupuncture Department is Runev, Jiang Xi’s eldest disciple.

Runev was also present when Nikolai was sent to the hospital, so he naturally recognized Rambach.

"You are busy with your business, don't worry about me——"

Rambach smiled and watched Runev perform a consultation.

Runev's patient was a Chinese man in his sixties. Since the old man did not speak Russian, Runev communicated with the old man in Chinese.

Rambach only saw Runev saying a few words to the old man, touching the old man's wrist for a while, and then asked the nurse to come in and take the old man away.

"What's his disease?"

Rambach had no idea how Runev handled it.

"It may be caused by lumbar strain due to long-term work. It is a common disease among the elderly. There is no good way to treat this disease. We can only take care of it slowly."

As soon as Runev said this, Rambach felt a little pain in his waist.

"How to treat it?"

Rambach was curious about Runev's needle.

"Acupuncture, heating, and massage are also required. Even if the disease cannot be cured, it can relieve the patient's pain."

Runev has become well versed in this chronic disease.

Anyone who has to see dozens or hundreds of patients a day will see rapid advances in technology.
