Chapter 78 Hospital
"what happened?"

Albert ran over, his eyes red.

"The doctor is rescuing him." Chris crossed his hands and lowered his head, and Horik stood next to him.

"Horik? What's going on?"

Albert's lips trembled and he pointed to the emergency room. This emergency room was designed to treat high-ranking officials and nobles. Albert used his connections to seal off this floor.Now Tingen's best surgeon is inside trying to save Fred.

Chris had just recited the name of the unknown god in the carriage and returned to Star Island, calling on the power of Star Island's personality. Then he returned to reality and held Fred's old wrist like he had done with Samantha before.

The black blood on Fred's chest flowed along the blood vessels to the place where Chris and his wrist were in contact. The black blood emerged from the pores, seeped into Chris' wrist, and then disappeared, but he just felt a little sick.

Then Chris used the pendulum method to divine again. Under the same divination statement as before, "Fred's life is in danger." The white crystal slowly turned counterclockwise, which made him relieved. At least he was out of life. Danger.

However, Fred's injury was still very serious. Chris only eliminated the poison on the knife, but there was nothing he could do about the physical wounds.

The sliding door of the emergency room was pushed open. The blond and blue-eyed attending physician took off his gauze mask, looked at the three people gathered in a circle in front of him, shook his head, and looked tired: "Although the patient is no longer in danger, The central nervous system has been injured, and you may not be able to move independently after you wake up."

silence.

Still silent.

"Are you colleagues of the patient? You can inform the family members so that they can be mentally prepared."

Finally, the doctor broke the dead silence.

"What kind of mental preparation! Fred is obviously not dead yet!"

Albert suddenly raised his voice. Chris had never seen Albert show such an expression. He always thought that Albert was a friendly and amiable captain, but now his eyes were red, as if he wanted to eat people.

Two doctors came out of the emergency room and stopped Albert, who was about to rush in, and said to him: "Mr. police officer, the patient needs to rest, don't enter the ward, and don't talk loudly outside. We understand your mood." .”

"You guys understand nothing!" Albert shouted loudly, his vice-like hands pressed tightly on the attending physician's shoulders, and he gritted his teeth, "The brother who was with you through life and death is now lying on the hospital bed inside with his life and death uncertain. , and you can’t even see him?!”

"The patient is not in danger, his life is not in danger, it's just..."

The attending physician could not move, and he thought with horror that even his bones would be crushed if the other man tried.

"team leader."

Chris stood up and reminded softly.

Albert let go of his hand, and the attending physician hurriedly walked outside, followed closely by the other doctors. The last one closed the sliding door. He glanced at Albert, who had his head lowered and said nothing, and turned to Ke. Reese whispered: "Don't let your captain go in. The patient needs to rest. He has just been out of danger."

"Is it serious? Doctor?"

The doctor didn't answer his words, patted his shoulder lightly, turned around and followed the others.Albert slowly raised his head, he pulled Horik to the corner, and cursed in a low voice: "I told you, you must obey the command, you must abide by the rules and regulations, I always thought you were a mature and experienced team member! "

He looked resentful: "A tracking operation requires at least two people. Even ordinary police officers know this!"

The pride Horik once had has disappeared. He now stands in front of Albert like a withered vegetable leaf, with his head lowered and silent.

Albert put his hand into his pocket and found the cigarette box, but then remembered that smoking was not allowed in the hospital.He took a deep breath and slowly exhaled: "Tell me the details and then write a handwritten action report."

He turned around and patted Chris on the shoulder and walked outside. Horik paused and followed him.

Chris didn't move. He sat on the bench, his mind filled with regret.

"The Mole" stabbed Fred with a knife tempered with some kind of poison. The latter still damaged his central nervous system after he was purified by invoking the power of the Star Island personality. There is only one possibility:
He was late.He should have gone to Star Island earlier.

Chris had no doubts about the purification ability of Star Island. Samantha seemed to be able to be completely purified after being possessed by the evil god, but "Mole" obviously did not have this ability, and his wrist did not have the same extreme tingling as last time. The toxins on the "Mole" knife involve, at best, extraordinary poisons.

Therefore, he should go to Star Island early.

After repelling the "Mole", he should immediately recite the name of the unknown god, invoke the person of Star Island to purify Fred, and then go find a carriage outside the street and stop it forcibly.

Instead of standing there stupidly waiting for the patrolman to come trotting towards him around the corner, doing nothing but waiting for the carriage to pass by.

A teardrop fell on the white crystal that Chris was rubbing. The hot tear transferred heat to the cold white crystal. The white crystal did not become hot, but the teardrop became colder.

Chris sniffed, closed his eyes and looked up, letting tears well up in his eyes.

He could have stopped this, if only he had been earlier.

In fact, Chris's feelings for Fred are far less deep than Albert's. He has only been a member of the Heart of the Machine for less than a month. His feelings for the Nighthawks are deeper than those of his teammates, even if None of them knew their names.

In the dead of night, Chris imagined what Audrey, Alger, and Derrick were doing at this moment. Audrey might be attending the ball wearing expensive jewelry, and Alger might be on his Blue Avenger. Sailing towards the ocean, Derrick may be praying silently in the stone house in Silver City, along with Fors, Emlyn, Xio...

However, he only briefly thought about the members of the Tarot Club. He knew that they would live, and he would also join the Tarot Club and become one of them.What he prefers to imagine when he has insomnia is the lives of countless people at the bottom of this world.

For example, the family of garment workers whose names he had forgotten lived in Backlund, and the old Kohler who worked hard to eat ham.

If the angle of view is closer, Charlotte, Mary, Laverty, Hayley...

These seemingly unfamiliar names suddenly occupied Chris's brain. In a trance, he seemed to have returned to the first time he watched "Lord of the Mysteries". He was moved by those straightforward but powerful words. However, the original work was short. The lives of these people could be written in just a few lines, but he could not.

Because he is in this world.
