It would be better to say that this is a suicide note from Dr. Granvin than a medical record.

Not bad!

The only piece of paper in the folder did record what happened during the last operation in Dr. Granvin's life.

The handwriting was messy, and it was obvious that the writer wrote it in extreme grief and anger.

Zhang Lianhai suppressed his excitement and read carefully from the first word.

【Patient Cases ……】

[Sorry, please forgive me for not writing the patient's name! Because I feel really bad for her, let me just call her Darling. ]

[One day in August 1909, Darling, who was also in Kaslinska Hospital, told me that he had been feeling very uncomfortable recently, with frequent headaches and fevers, to the point that he couldn’t even carry out his normal work smoothly!]

[I didn't take it too seriously because my wife and I were too busy. As the chief neurosurgeon and surgical nurse of this hospital, we had to perform more than a dozen surgeries every day, and almost all the brain patients in the United States came to us for treatment. There were too many patients waiting for treatment, so we often didn't have time to eat or rest, and it was normal for us to have headaches and fevers.]

[But Darling's symptoms lasted for half a month. I saw that she was getting more and more haggard, so I finally took it seriously. One morning, I sincerely suggested that Darling take a brain X-ray to see what was wrong with her brain...]

Darling smiled and refused, telling me that X-ray machines can only show what's going on inside the body, such as looking for foreign objects and tumors. What else can you see from the head besides bones? It's not like no one has tried this before.

[But I told my wife that our hospital's equipment is already the fourth generation of X-ray machines, and if there is really a problem in the brain, we can find clues through imaging technology.]

[She finally agreed to give it a try, and I helped her contact Dr. Wright, the chief surgeon in the Department of Thoracic Surgery. After all, Dr. Wright was the only one who was most familiar with the operation of both the X-ray machine and the camera...]

[Although I have had some misunderstandings with him recently, I always suspect that he, nurse Sofia, anesthesiologist Enzo, and some doctors from other departments of the hospital deliberately exaggerated the patient's condition and performed a large number of unnecessary surgeries to defraud the patient's insurance compensation. But we are all colleagues, so this little favor should help me, right? ]

[Sure enough, Dr. Wright readily agreed and arranged an X-ray for Darling, but the result was beyond his expectations.]

[The X-ray showed that there was a large shadow in my wife's brain, located in the frontal lobe. It was initially suspected to be a tumor! ]

【Dr. Wright found me quietly and showed me the X-ray. I felt like the sky was falling.】

[Admittedly, I am one of the best brain surgeons in Kaslinska Hospital, Scotland, and even the entire Eagle Country. But I still can't believe that my wife has such a huge tumor in her brain? How is this possible! ]

[But I can't help but believe in science! The X-ray technology invented by German scientist Roentgen has been widely verified. How could X-rays be wrong?]

[After all the pain, I could only accept the reality and begged Dr. Wright and nurse Sophia who knew about this to keep it a secret for me and not tell my wife about her condition! ]

[Oh my god! She is such a kind and optimistic person, but she is very timid. If she knew that she had a terminal illness, I can’t imagine how she would bear it! ]

[Dr. Wright and Nurse Sophia agreed to my request and suggested that I perform a craniotomy on my wife as soon as possible to remove the tumor in her brain and effectively prolong her life.]

[I hesitated, and I refused! Because the world's first real craniotomy was performed by Glasgow surgeon MacEwen in 1879. He successfully removed the patient's meningioma. From then on, craniotomy was no longer regarded as a scourge in the world...]

[After that, brain abscess drainage, hematoma removal, intraspinal meningioma resection, and even brain tumor resection were all performed. But inevitably, because of the lack of hemostasis, anesthesia, disinfection and other measures, the success rate of the operation was only a pitiful 20%...]

【20%! This is too low! Although it is now 1909, the survival rate has been pushed up to 50% due to the continuous research of me and other brain surgeons, it is still too low! I dare not accept the fact that the operation failed. If my wife died because of my mistake, I might commit suicide in pain! 】

[Although, I heard that there is a neurosurgeon named Harvey Cushing in the United States who is studying better ways to stop bleeding and measures to reduce wound infection. But there seems to be no progress! This also makes me dare not rashly perform a craniotomy on my wife...]

[This matter was gradually put aside, but unexpectedly, his wife heard about her illness from somewhere. She began to worry and get scared, and became depressed and irritable! ]

[No one could imagine that such a kind and beautiful wife would start to insult her colleagues and work negatively because of her emotional instability! But I can understand her! I'm afraid that anyone would feel very bad if they knew that she had a terminal illness at the age of 30...]

[I was very anxious as I watched my wife's condition getting worse! Dr. Wright and Nurse Sophia found me again and advised me to start the operation immediately, otherwise my wife might become a complete lunatic before she died!]

[Why? Because according to the X-ray, the tumor is located right in her frontal lobe. Scientific research shows that this area is responsible for a person's emotions and mental state. It is normal for the pressure of the tumor to make her crazy.]

【Just in time! A turning point has come! 】

[Dr. Harvey Cushing developed scalp hemostatic clips and blocking clips to control cerebral vascular bleeding, and even began to design a high-frequency electric knife, which is said to be able to effectively reduce the occurrence of massive cerebral vascular bleeding during surgery. I think, I have to start saving my wife! ]

[I tried to contact Dr. Harvey Cushing in Eagle Sauce and asked him to help me lead this extremely difficult craniotomy.]

[Unfortunately, Dr. Harvey Cushing has accepted the invitation of the Eagle Sauce Military Health Department to start serving and provide rescue for those who suffered brain trauma in the war. ]

[We could only communicate over the phone. Harvey Cushing told me some ways to stop bleeding in the brain, but because of the confidentiality of the technology, I was destined not to get the high-frequency electric knife and other items.]

[But even so, I was extremely excited because the communication with Dr. Harvey Cushing seemed to open the door to a new world for me! I have full confidence in my wife's craniotomy! ]

[And so, after another month of preparation, in the autumn of 1909, when winter was approaching, I finally told my wife that I was going to save you.]

[Yes, I love you so much, how can I bear to see you leave me like this? ]

[Although the success rate of the surgery is only 50%, or even less, my husband and I decided at the same time to give it a try! ]

[On this day, the operation finally began! To be on the safe side, I even called Dr. Wright and Nurse Sofia to help me. As for anesthesiologist Enzo, he was in charge of the patient's anesthesia and naturally stayed in the operating room. ]

[At 9 am, the operation went smoothly! After chloroform gas anesthesia, my wife fell into a coma, and then I successfully opened her frontal bone and dura mater. ]

[The bleeding was not much and was within a controllable range. I was very happy because it meant that the chances of success of the operation were increasing.]

[As long as I find the tumor in my wife's brain and remove it, everything will be over.]

[But what happened next made me unable to accept the facts before my eyes! ]

When I opened my wife's skull and revealed her frontal lobe, I couldn't believe my eyes.

[No tumor! There is no tumor! My wife’s frontal lobe is normal and her brain tissue is as healthy as that of an ordinary person!!!]

[My spirit collapsed on the spot. I couldn't accept the facts in front of me. Could it be that there was something wrong with the X-ray machine? Why did the science I always believed in deceive me so much? ]

[I angrily asked Dr. Wright beside me, but Dr. Wright hesitated and could not give any reason.]

[I don't have time to be angry. Nurse Sophia urged me, since there is no tumor, why don't you quickly suture Darling's meninges and end this terrible operation? ]

[I had no choice but to do as I was told, but the accident still happened.]

[I don’t know if it was because of the anesthesiologist Enzo or my wife’s physical condition, but she woke up during the operation! ]

[Who could have imagined! After inhaling chloroform gas anesthetic, my wife actually woke up! ]

[After regaining consciousness, my wife was in so much pain that her screams echoed throughout the operating room. I was so nervous that I couldn't even hold the scalpel steady as I listened to her screams.]

[I didn't care about who was responsible, and angrily asked Enzo, the anesthesiologist, to immediately re-anesthetize my wife and inhale more chloroform gas into her mouth.]

[But Enzo, the anesthesiologist, actually told me...]

[I'm sorry, he drank too much last night and didn't prepare enough anesthetics. Now there is no anesthetic left! ]

[God, do you want to listen to what you are saying? In the middle of the operation, you told me there is no anesthesia? Bastard, you are killing people! ]

[The patient will die from the pain. She will be unable to bear the fear and pain, and her whole body will convulse, her blood pressure will rise, and she will eventually die from heavy bleeding! ]

[I was getting more and more panicked! I was getting more and more angry and losing my mind, but I couldn't lose my mind because I knew that only I could save my wife now.]

[I risked infection and went to the pharmacy and Enzo's anesthesiologist's office to look for anesthetics, but unfortunately I couldn't find any.]

[When I returned to the operating room, bad news came again! Nurse Sophia panicked and poured the anhydrous alcohol originally used for disinfection on my wife's frontal lobe! ]

[High levels of alcohol will mercilessly kill my wife's brain tissue, turning her into a completely demented vegetable.]

[The wife is shouting, "Save me, honey, please, save me! It hurts so much, it hurts so much..."]

[I was at a loss, I didn't know how to save my wife! I could only cry and tell her to hold on, I would sew up her meninges and put her skull back in place immediately...]

[Unfortunately, my wife couldn’t wait until the end of the operation! ]

[The severe pain caused her to twist constantly, and eventually her blood pressure rose, causing heavy bleeding in her blood vessels. I watched my wife die in front of me...]

【The operation failed! 】

[I was so angry that I grabbed the scalpel and asked Dr. Wright why my wife's X-ray showed a tumor inside, but there was no tumor after opening it? ]

[I asked Enzo, the anesthesiologist, why did you drink too much and not prepare enough anesthetics? ]

[I asked nurse Sophia why you put anhydrous alcohol on my wife's frontal lobe, are you going to kill her?]

[No one gave me an answer. They looked at me expressionlessly, and even had a sneer on their lips! ]

[My head suddenly understood! ]

[Liar! You are a bunch of liars! ]

[It must be that Dr. Wright deliberately provided me with false X-rays, making me mistakenly believe that my wife had a terminal illness.]

[Anesthesiologist Enzo and nurse Sofia did it on purpose. They wanted to kill my wife! ]

[I cried and asked them why they did this! ]

[They still sneered, saying that I wanted to kill them first and exposed their fraudulent insurance money, so they had no choice but to attack my wife.]

[I said I was just suspicious, and I didn’t tell Dean Robert, you guys…]

[I tried to fight them, but they kicked me to the ground. I cried helplessly, and they all left.]

[When the operating room fell silent, I could only face my wife's eyes, which were still open, and realize one fact! ]

[It was me... who killed her! It was me who killed my beloved wife! ]

If I hadn't asked her to take the X-ray, I wouldn't have fallen into their trap.

[If I were not a brain surgeon, I would not have opened my wife's skull myself and watched her slowly die in front of me! ]

[My wife was in so much pain, she died of pain! ]

[I am trapped in a great deal of self-blame and guilt, which makes me unable to breathe! ]

[This medical record is written! I hope that Dean Robert can see it, and I hope that more people can see it, so that those damned people can be brought to justice! ]

[But I am destined not to see that day! Because I cannot bear the pain of losing my wife for even a second. ]

[Sorry, I have to leave too! To accompany my darling. ]

[My dear, please wait for me. You must wait for me...]

The case ends here!

Zhang Lianhai finished reading it trembling, feeling angry and helpless.

He finally understood what had happened.

In fact, he had guessed the general idea since he first read Dr. Wright's diary.

It was only after seeing Dr. Granvin's case that I finally confirmed this.

A Wright, a Sophia, and an anesthesiologist Enzo are all the murderers of Dr. Granvin's wife!

They conspired to create a surgical accident and put the blame on Dr. Granvin.

Dr. Granvin, who was kind and loved his wife deeply, did not even wait for the opportunity to explain himself, and angrily chose to... commit suicide in the operating room!

call!

Zhang Lianhai took a deep breath and slowly put down the case in his hand.

This is a satisfying revenge!

The deaths of Dr. Wright, Nurse Sofia, and Anesthesiologist Enzo all prove that this was an act of revenge.

But he still doesn't understand.

Who killed them?

Maybe anesthesiologist Enzo was killed by Pushkin, but what about the other two?

Could it really be Anna?

and many more!

Zhang Lianhai remembered something and started frantically rummaging through the desk again.

He was eager to see who had the blurred image in the photo found in Dr. Wright's office.

Maybe if we find that negative, we can identify the real murderer!

Good luck!

After searching for a while, he indeed found a stack of black film.

Zhang Lianhai suppressed his excitement and checked the red light bulbs above his head one by one.

Most of the negatives were images of various places in Kaslinska Hospital, as well as personal photos of some doctors.

Finally, after flipping through more than a dozen pictures, he found it!

Found the group photo of all the staff in the hospital!

Zhang Lianhai trembled as he slowly raised the film until it was under the light bulb.

who is it?

Who is it?

Through the light, he finally saw everything clearly.

next second.

Ecstasy and shock, fear and excitement, anger and self-blame, fear and worry...

A variety of emotions appeared on Zhang Lianhai's face.

He couldn't wait to rush out of the darkroom with the film, shouting excitedly.

"Brother Xiu! I found it! I finally found it!"

"Dr. Granvin's wife was murdered! And his wife was..."

Zhang Lianhai was about to announce a major discovery.

Unexpectedly.

Bang!

He only felt a violent blow to his head, and then he fainted on the ground.

When he fell, he could still see from the corner of his eye that someone had attacked him.

That person turned out to be...

Matthew!

Matthew! Why the hell did you hit me on the head?

Zhang Lianhai's face was full of confusion, but the severe pain eventually made him unconscious and he slowly fell to the ground.

At the last moment of coma, the reminder sound rang in my mind again.

[Ding! The main quest has progressed to 50%...]

Seeing the other person fall to the ground and faint, Matthew was still holding the wooden box containing the X-ray machine, with a look of pain and helplessness on his face.

"Brother! I'm sorry! I'm sorry..."

"For the mission, for my life, I have no choice but to do this!"
