Byron's Blade

Mu Li's body was still a little weak, and after a few words with Lan Ni, he fell asleep again.After this sleep, I didn’t wake up until noon the next day. When I woke up, Lan Ni was not there. The nurse took care of her and ate something. Mu Li felt much better, her body didn’t hurt so much, and her strength recovered a lot. The mental state is also good, so I want to get out of bed and move around.

The nurse advised her to rest, but Mu Li really didn't want to lie down.The last thing she likes to do is to lie in bed. After so many years of military life, she has long been used to going to bed early and getting up early, and she is often woken up in the middle of the night, getting up to assemble urgently, so she actually gets very little sleep, but she always High energy, generally she only needs four to five hours of sleep a day is enough.Her adoptive father taught her since she was a child that people's lazy bones are laid out on the bed, and martial arts practitioners place the most emphasis on exercise, and only by constantly moving can they maintain a good spirit.

Just at this time, Alita military doctor came to see her, so she finally found a savior.With the approval and companionship of Alita, Muli, who was wearing a hospital gown, supported the mobile drip stand, finally walked out of the crowded ward, and walked outside the hospital, intending to get some air.

"I know you, I can't stay in bed." Alita smiled.

Mu Li smiled, but didn't speak.

"Thank you this time, if it weren't for you, I guess I would have died outside the city this time." Alita said again.

"Where, at that time we were all on the same boat. I didn't just save you, I also saved myself," Mu Li said.

"What are you talking about with me? At that time, you used your own body to build us a city wall. If you are not good, you have to hang up." Alita said.

Mu Li shrugged and said with a smile: "Alright then, I will accept your thanks frankly."

Alita happily patted Mu Li on the shoulder, and said, "That's right."

"Oh, by the way, I forgot to ask, how is that scientist Bailey and that adventurer doing now?"

"Both are in the intensive care unit. They haven't woken up. There are heavy guards outside. This is arranged by Major Friesman and Major General Creel."

Mu Li nodded, she knew Lan Ni would definitely protect them, since they were important witnesses after all.

"What about the two nurses who were rescued with us, Corporal William and the female soldier?"

"The two nurses are fine. They have woken up and started working. Corporal William is also fine, his life is saved, and he can't move in bed now. But the female soldier is very unlucky. Her right arm is broken. Forget it, the wound is still stained with insect blood, it is infected, and there is a danger of insect transformation."

"What should I do?"

"She... estimates that there are a few hours of observation time left. If it continues to deteriorate, the only way is... euthanasia."

Mu Li was dumbfounded.

The two continued to walk forward in silence. When they passed the gate of the hospital, Mu Li saw countless people in ragged clothes and dirty clothes gathered outside the gate. Cardboard boxes or mattresses, simple tents are set up, or they are sitting or lying down, looking haggard and haggard.And on their necks, you can see the conspicuous black collars.Mu Li's pupils contracted, he stood still, and his face darkened.

So many traitors, why are they gathered here?

Alita followed her gaze and understood what she was thinking, so she sighed and said:

"The three garrison areas that were lost happened to be among the slums. These rebels were hit by disasters, and they fled here desperately. They wanted to ask for help from the hospital. But the law stipulates that rebels cannot enjoy federal medical care. They are serving, so they can’t come in, so they can only stay outside. They were still crying yesterday, and begged the doctor to save them. Today, they probably have no energy to make a fuss, so they just sit outside.”

Mu Li's eyes fell on a dozen or so heavily armed soldiers holding guns at the entrance of the hospital.This is probably the reason why these rebels dare not make trouble anymore.But the soldiers did not drive them away, allowing them to gather here.

"Why didn't you drive them away?" Mu Li asked.

"It is the order of Major General Creel. Although medical assistance cannot be provided, at least give them a safe place to live."

Mu Li had a good impression of Creel in his heart. It seemed that the master of the Ares region really had pity for the traitors. Even in such a wartime situation, he did not forget to take care of these mutineers.No wonder Ares can be said to be a paradise for rebels, and some rebels even travel long distances to come here from other places to make a living.

"I'll go out and have a look." Mu Li supported his IV stand and walked out of the hospital gate.Alita didn't stop her, but just followed behind her.

As soon as she and Alita walked out of the gate, many traitors noticed them, or noticed Alita in a white coat.A male traitor immediately knelt down and kowtowed, begging:

"Doctor, doctor please, please show kindness and save my wife, she is dying..."

Mu Li's eyes fell on the woman beside him lying on the ground lifeless. The woman's right leg was broken and was only briefly wrapped with a piece of dirty cloth. Her skin was extremely pale and lifeless.Even if Mu Li is not a doctor, he can tell that this man's wife is actually dead.

Alita was just silent. As long as she was a serious doctor, everyone knew that she couldn't treat the traitor, otherwise she would be making trouble for herself.what can she doThe doctor's parents are heartbroken, doesn't she want to save?But she is not as good as the Virgin Mary to completely disregard her own safety for the sake of strangers.What's more, this man's wife is hopeless, he is just deceiving himself and others.

Seeing the man kowtow, many traitors also surrounded Alita, knelt down and kowtowed desperately, begging Alita to save their relatives and lovers. Among them, many patients can be cured with just one treatment. Procrastination like this will endanger life.But Alita couldn't lend a helping hand at all. She took two steps back with a look of embarrassment on her face, and the soldiers around her had already surrounded her and shouted loudly:

"You all, go back! If you make trouble again, you will be killed!"

The traitors were full of unwillingness and grief, and wanted to ask again, but under the coercion of force, they could only hold back desperately and retreated forbearance.A mother was crying while holding her child with a high fever. Mu Li could hear her saying:

"Son, it's mom who's sorry for you..."

As if his heart was blocked by a boulder, Mu Li felt extremely uncomfortable.And at this moment, Mu Li suddenly saw, on the road outside the hospital square, there was a thin figure, carrying a frail woman on his back, stumbling towards the hospital with difficulty.Mu Li recognized them almost instantly, they were Dora and her mother Mary.

Mu Li hastily pulled out the IV needle on the back of his hand and rushed forward.Alita behind her was taken aback by her, and subconsciously called out:

"Mu Li!? Where are you going?"

However, Mu Li had already rushed far away.

The soldiers on the side were surprised at this moment, and asked quickly:

"Doctor, did you call Mu Li just now?"

Alita was puzzled and said, "Yes."

"Is that person just now Second Lieutenant Mu Limu of the [-]rd Squadron of the Mecha Division who resisted the insect swarm at the gate of the city alone?" The young soldier's face was filled with excitement.

Alita was a little confused, she nodded and admitted, thinking: Why is Mu Li so famous all of a sudden?Although she was also very famous.

"It's God of War, real person!"

"I didn't expect the God of War to be in this hospital, we just got lucky!"

"It is said that her personal number of Zerg kills has exceeded [-], and she doesn't rely on mechs at all, it's hand-to-hand combat!"

"If she is a mobile armor, it is estimated that one person can stand up to a division! This time she has made great contributions at the gate of the city, and she will be promoted again soon."

A few soldiers gathered together to exchange the news, and they even exclaimed excitedly, and then everyone's eyes focused on Mu Li in the distance.

As for the rebels around, some heard the conversation of these soldiers and whispered timidly, as if they were all talking about Mu Li.

Alita had a strange expression, and thought to herself: Why do you feel that things are developing in a strange direction?

Mu Li didn't know that her name was already known in the whole city. At this moment, she just rushed to the side of Mary and Dora, picked up Mary who could hardly walk without saying a word, and strode back.Dora followed behind, and when she saw the figure of her familiar benefactor, tears instantly wet her eyes, her lips trembled, but she couldn't say a word.

Mu Li returned to the square, asked Mary to sit down against a concrete pillar, then turned her head and asked Dora:

"What happened to your mother?"

"Insects wanted to eat us, and my mother protected me to escape, but I was pierced in the waist." Dora's dirty little face was full of tears, and she was out of breath, without the awkwardness and hostility of the past at all. .

Mu Li lifted the corner of Mary's clothes, and saw a horrible puncture wound on her side waist, which was bleeding continuously.Beads of sweat were all over her forehead, she was gasping for air in pain, her lips were white, and she was in a semi-conscious state, all because of her daughter who was still holding on.

Mu Li made a decisive decision, tore off a strip of cloth from Mary's worn-out trousers, then split it into two halves, stuffed it into Dora's hands, and said:

"Use these two pieces of cloth, and block your mother's wound from front to back, otherwise she will bleed to death."

"Yes... yes..." Dora, who has no master, believed in Mu Li completely and unconditionally, and hurriedly followed suit.

Mu Li raised his blood-stained hand, waved to Alita, led her aside, and said softly:

"The law stipulates that doctors are not allowed to treat traitors. What exactly does the law say? Can you recite it to me verbatim?"

Alita was surprised, and immediately reacted, and said anxiously: "Mu Li, are you going to save those people?"

Mu Li nodded and admitted that there was nothing to hide.

"You're crazy, and you're going to have bad luck doing this."

"It doesn't matter if I'm unlucky enough to save so many people. I've survived the bug swarm, so there's nothing to be afraid of." Mu Li still remembers his cry at the gate of the city: If I don't die, I have no fear in the future.

"You are simply..." Alita was completely speechless, she just felt that Mu Li was crazy.

"Just tell me, is there any loophole to take advantage of?" Mu Li urged.

Alita took a deep breath, raised her hand to stroke her long golden hair, and said slowly:

"Article 113 of the traitor handling law under the criminal law, any doctor who holds a federal medical qualification shall not, under any circumstances, directly or indirectly help a traitor in any way, the offender shall be disqualified as a doctor, and shall be sentenced to more than five years depending on the seriousness of the circumstances. Imprisonment for less than ten years and confiscation of all personal property."

"Any doctors with federal medical qualifications? So there are black doctors who can treat the rebels?"

"Yes." Alita nodded, "There are indeed black doctors who treat the traitors. Most of them are traitors themselves, or gangsters, and they specialize in this business, otherwise the traitors would not be able to survive."

"Is it illegal for soldiers to give first aid to civilians on the battlefield?"

"Huh? Of course it's not against the law."

"Is it against the law for a soldier to give first aid to a traitor on the battlefield?"

"It's true... there is no law stipulating this, but...soldiers can't get involved with traitors, otherwise they will be investigated, and if it is serious, they will be charged with military dereliction of duty. You..."

Mu Li raised his hand to interrupt her: "That's easy. I know first aid, stitches, bandages, injections, and bone setting. I just need medicine. Do me a favor and get a prescription in my name." , I will do other things."

"Mu Li! Are you really going to do this?"

"I'm not a doctor, I saved them without breaking the law, hehe." Mu Li smiled at Alita, showing his neat and white teeth.Alita was moved, and only felt that at this moment, the person in front of her seemed to be emitting holy light, which was extremely charming.

"Okay, I'll help you."
