Chapter 52 Adelaide's Nightmare

The Manhattan Community Center Hospital Building is the second tallest building in the entire urban community after the Committee Building, but it is the largest building in terms of floor area and the only modern two-story building built entirely with cement bricks.

For a long time after the catastrophe, the entire Manhattan community was in the rush to survive and keep everything simple.But only in the construction of medical facilities, the community committee has invested the highest priority in manpower and material resources.The entire hospital building, together with the surrounding ancillary facilities, is extremely neat, beautiful and modern.

Although there are no modern varieties of grass seed, people have managed to fill the community hospital with patches of neat, verdant lawns.

Not only the hardware construction and material guarantee, in addition to the 8 time-traveling men and women who were full-time medical workers before the catastrophe, several young men and women who were still studying in medical colleges and universities also became trainees, and many more Young men and women who have no special skills after the catastrophe also become doctors or nurses in training.

As a result, the community central hospital has as many as 30 employees, making it one of the units with the most full-time employees in various departments in the entire community.

At this moment, there is nothing more secure than a hospital that looks strong in technology and looks modern, beautiful and dignified.Every day, many community residents come and go here for various reasons, perhaps more in pursuit of a kind of psychological safety rescue.

……

……

Since completing his second European trade voyage a week ago, Adelaide has been told that he has been granted the "permanent residency of the Chinese American Republic" as an exception, and he is the first batch of people to have this status.Then Adelaide has an extra resident ID card called a "green card", with a string of zeros in front of the number and a 1 at the end.

The English-born captain, who is full of pride at sea but always timid like a mouse, is extremely sharp at this time, and he quickly buys a piece of undeveloped land on the edge of the Manhattan community.The community town construction team led by Dong Jiunan was entrusted to design a beautiful one-piece small villa, with an attached small garden and lawn, covering an area of ​​more than 800 square meters.For this reason, Dong Jiunan and the community real estate management department under the community committee took away 240 pounds worth of Spanish silver dollars.

Although Ren Changle, the accountant of the European General Trade Council who has a good relationship with him, has repeatedly hinted that buying a property of the same size and area in the newly planned neighborhood of Brooklyn will only cost less than one-third of the price, but the stubborn Adlai De has clearly fallen in love with the Manhattan neighborhood, which is currently almost exclusively Chinese.

In addition to the weekly salary of £3 a week, which is regarded as a super high salary in this era, Adelaide received an additional bonus of more than £300 in two European trades.According to a certain theory, Adelaide, which used to be so poor that a family could only live in a dirty courtyard in Portsmouth, should now live in an upper-class community and deal with upper-class people if they are not short of money.

Such an avant-garde and decisive move by Adelaide made Ren Changle stunned for a long time at that time, and secretly admired that Europeans these days should not be underestimated, and they know how to invest in personal career and living environment.

The rest time before the third voyage is longer. Adelaide, apart from going to his own construction site to watch the construction progress of his new home, spends all day in the Phantom Bar, and then simply spends the night in the expensive private room of the bar. stay overnight.However, the English captain, who is like an old man, obviously has no intention of robbing the bar woman with the Chinese guys in the community, and always sleeps soundly in the room alone.

After living like this for a week, Adelaide felt a change in her body with horror. She felt a strange subtle sensation in her urethra when she went to the toilet to urinate. Even two days later, itching and pain followed one after another, and another night , has become hot and red.

I have repeatedly confirmed that I have not entered or exited any special places in Port of Heroes, Azores Islands. I have not found any problems during the routine inspection after returning to the voyage, and I have not stayed in any dancers after getting drunk in the Phantom Bar.Captain Adelaide could only consult Ren Changle with a puzzled and unbearable expression, and finally walked into the community center hospital.

……

……

Before entering the clean and beautiful hospital building, Adelaide felt an inexplicable guilty conscience.Maybe it's the large glass windows and doors that can be sold for sky-high prices in any city in Europe, maybe it's the clean white walls that can almost reflect people's shadows, or maybe it's the cold-looking lady nurse at the front desk.

Just like that, Adelaide stood for a long time not far from the front desk in the hospital lobby with a stiff and tangled expression.

"Mr. Adelaide, are you unwell? Is it an emergency or an appointment?"

The middle-aged head nurse who had done a routine inspection of Adelaide's entry happened to come over. While glaring at the intern nurse who did not have any professional courtesy at the front desk, she greeted Adelaide towards the registration area with a smile.

"Oh, dear Ms. Huang, I'm a little uncomfortable... well, I'm very uncomfortable, I feel like I'm dying!" Adelaide grimaced, and the strange burning sensation between his legs made his face tingle. Started to get hot.

"Then... what are you going to look at?" Head nurse Huang looked up and down curiously at this European-born captain who was already well-known in the Manhattan community, showing caring eyes.

"Mr. Ren introduced, let me watch 'Birds'..." Adelaide took a deep breath and said every word in his not-so-fluent Chinese.

As soon as these words came out, the little nurse in the registration area burst into laughter, and then quickly covered her mouth when she felt that she was a bit out of line.And the middle-aged head nurse beside Adelaide had blushed while holding back her smile.

"Bird Branch?" The head nurse looked around and reconfirmed with difficulty.

Adelaide became more nervous, but still firmly believed that he heard what Ren Changle said correctly, so he nodded firmly.

"But..." The head nurse looked at Adelaide's whole body for the last time, and felt that the other party didn't seem to be joking, so she lowered her voice, "It was Ren Changle who told you that you wanted to hang... Ornithology? But we don't have Ornithology." ah."

Oh... God, I'm sick, I need a doctor, I'm dying!Adelaide resisted the increasingly weird burning itching between her legs, and nodded vigorously.

"The head nurse...he should be talking about the urology department, right?" The little nurse suddenly came to her senses and secretly pointed to the list of departments under the glass panel in front of her.

The head nurse suddenly realized, and quickly helped Adelaide tear off a note, and then led him to the second floor.

……

……

Since the establishment of the community hospital, there has never been such a day that so many doctors and nurses will be summoned, and a temporary clinical research project has begun.

Adelaide was horrified to find that she was placed on a hospital bed by the doctor like a stripped lamb. All kinds of playful eyes caused him to enter another state of shivering all over his body.

Could it be that he has some serious illness?Are they saying my last prayers?So why didn't Reverend Brest come?

"This is a typical fungal urinary tract infection. Generally speaking, women are more likely to get it, but because of careless personal hygiene, such as underwear not being changed frequently, men are also likely to suffer from this kind of urinary tract infection. Everyone should be strict with gonorrhea, etc. Urinary tract venereal diseases should be distinguished in order to avoid misjudgments in future immigration health inspections and cause unnecessary panic.”

The former ship doctor of the Changxin 07 bulk carrier lowered his glasses, smiled and introduced to the interns and nurses standing around, and among these interns, two European men with high nose bridges and yellow hair stood out.

One is an English doctor who was once on the Mayflower, and the other is an Irish doctor who was rescued from a shipwrecked English ship.They were all thrown to the community center hospital by the community committee, where they received professional reengineering and practice of modern medical knowledge.

"Oh my God... the urethra is red and swollen, but there is no pus, so it is true!" The English intern carefully plucked Adelaide's baby with a serious expression.

"I'm sure, if it is placed in Europe, even His Majesty James' royal physician will be helpless." The Irish intern muttered with emotion.

"Doctor..." Adelaide's face was almost watering, and his voice trembled.

"Oh, don't be nervous, Mr. Adelaide. In our hospital, you can get [-]% treatment effect. Although the treatment cost is relatively high, since you rarely provide us with a clinical teaching opportunity, the cost can be paid to a certain extent. reduce!"

The Chinese doctors clapped their hands, most of them backed out, and then a small nurse came in with a plate, six capsules or tablets were lined with a white paper in the center of the plate.

"Take one of these two medicines twice a day. Maybe tomorrow you'll feel better!"

In front of the extremely confident antibiotics of this era, Chinese doctors are full of pride.

"It's gone?" Adelaide has not yet reacted from the "huge funeral ceremony" just now, "Doctor, you mean it was just a teaching session?"

"Yes, you are brave, Mr. Adelaide. Put on your trousers and your medicine, and you can go home and rest."

After speaking, the Chinese doctors and nurses left the room.Adelaide, who was left naked, was dumbfounded.

……

……

It's night, and Phantom Bar ushered in another fruitful night.

For a week, the first European sailors to be granted green cards in Manhattan neighborhoods became bar regulars like drug addicts.

They are no different from any sailor who is about to go on a voyage or come back by luck in this era. They spend their money like water and put their limited salary into such a kind of pleasure that can soothe their hearts and dispel the memory of the frightening life at sea.

10 barmaids can't handle the wolves of a Manhattan neighbourhood, even if the wheels are turned.But the bar girls are so happy to work so hard, their weekly income, according to conservative estimates, has exceeded most of the current European artisans in the Manhattan community.Earn a good few years, and then marry a man who is similar to a sailor. At worst, you can live comfortably for the rest of your life. This is the pursuit of these hard-working European prostitutes.

Adelaide sat blankly in the corner, the wine in front of him hadn't been poured for a long time.Opposite him, Ren Changle, accountant of the European General Trade Council, kept looking at Adelaide with a playful smile.

"Dear Mr. Ren, I swear I love this country, everyone here, and this land, but I can't accept a kind of teasing!" Adelaide stayed for a long time, and finally grabbed the glass and drank Jin, with a vicissitudes on his face, "God, they actually said that I haven't changed my underwear for at least two months, but I clearly remember that I changed it a month ago!"

"Pfft!" Ren Changle took a sip of wine and sprayed it on the table, then pointed at the other party and remained silent for a long time.

"Then what do you want? Going to sue the doctors and nurses at the community center hospital? Sue them for molesting you?" Ren Changle wiped the corner of his mouth with a happy face, "I don't know who the judge is now, I'm afraid you have to wait a few more It's been a month."

"No, you misunderstood, I mean, Mr. Ren... don't you think we can use this drug to make a fortune in Europe?" Adelaide suddenly lowered his voice, his expression was extremely excited, " I'll bet that's just one! It's worth at least £1 in London!"

Now it was Ren Changle's turn to start to be in a daze.
