[Infrastructure] Rose kissed Barcelona

Joey seemed to be choked by the throat.

Like a person sinking underwater, every cell in the body is struggling, but there is no air to breathe.There was the humming of lack of oxygen in his ears, and he lost consciousness in his limbs in an instant.

The world in the field of vision quickly blurred and dimmed, with black shadows extending from the surroundings to the center.

In the center of the field of vision gradually eroded by darkness, bright red blood flowers spread rapidly.

Everything was burning, the tumbling golden yellow and blood red were intertwined, the scorching sun splashed down, the huge humming almost made her deaf, and the blood was filled in the huge vortex...

It's black in front of you.

No, consciousness is still there.

Only a pair of warm hands covered her eyes.

Joey was suddenly freed from the huge suffocation, and his extremely suppressed heartbeat suddenly jumped wildly.

"Don't look." Antonio's deep voice was breathy, and gently blew into her ears, "Don't be afraid."

Don't be afraid.

Just two words, so light that it was almost covered by her crazy heartbeat, but it poured on Joey like a basin of water mixed with ice cubes.

The man who was talking in her ear one moment, fell on her body without strength the next moment.

The last sliver of sanity went into her mind like a needle—if she fell now, she would lose him.

She regained consciousness instantly.

Only she wasn't hurt.

Joey hugged Antonio's body hard to prevent him from sliding down.She pinched the back of her hand violently.

Don't think about that.hold onto.

not afraid.She is not afraid!

"Hurry up and save people!"

"The building opposite, send someone there immediately!"

"Two people were shot!"

"Control the field immediately!"

Messy voices and footsteps came.

The flickering background sound is very messy, like in a bad old movie.

Joey embraced the heavy body in his arms, and slowly opened his eyes.

Her vision was still a little dizzy, and she was shaking all over.But she really didn't faint.

Alfonso looked fine.

Great.

He covered one arm and turned around quickly.

"I'm fine, but the bullet grazed my arm." Alfonso quickly said to the people who rushed in, "Don't let Joey see the blood."

"No, leave me alone." Joey replied in a low voice, "I'm fine."

The blood in the whole body is returning a little bit.

She must be calm.

"Mr. Gaudi is seriously injured and the bleeding must be stopped immediately," someone said.

"Don't worry... there will be no danger." Someone knelt down to comfort Joey.

No.

Joey thought to himself.

There is also danger.

At this time, she is like a program-controlled robot. With limited resources to allocate, her brain uses all the blood and oxygen for one thing.

Antonio got shot in the chest, Joy thought.

She saw the wound from this direction, so the bullet did not stay in his body.No need to remove bullets.

But where did the bullet hurt...

Her heart sank heavily.

"Go to the hospital right now." She barely recognized it was her own voice.Hoarse and sharp, like a string stretched to the extreme.

Alfonso quickly made a few gestures to the people around him, and the people inside and outside the room quickly began to perform their duties.

The carriage to the hospital was quickly arranged, and Joey grabbed Antonio's increasingly cold hand, almost unreasonably forcing him to talk to himself.

"Don't sleep, Antonio!"

"Why?" There was a faint smile on his pale face, "Your demands are getting too much, Joey."

Joey was so angry that he wanted to pinch him: "If you fall asleep, you won't be able to wake up!"

"Oh——" Antonio wanted to show an expression of sudden realization, but due to the loss of strength caused by excessive blood loss, this expression seemed a little funny, "How do you know?"

He even thought about it seriously, "Did you die once?"

"Shut up!" Joey couldn't restrain himself from crying.

Is this person never serious?

Antonio kept his mouth shut graciously.

Joey immediately realized something was wrong, "No, you have to talk to me..."

The memory after that is almost blank.

Joey couldn't remember how he accompanied Antonio all the way to the hospital.The carriage seemed to pass through the fountain on the side of the road. She had heard the pattering sound of the fountain, and the dark green olive leaves falling on Antonio's body.

If time could stand still, if time could go back...

She hardly dared to think about it.

It wasn't until the doctor picked up Antonio that Joey suddenly felt dizzy.Ada quickly helped her sit down.

"My God, Miss, why are your hands so cold!" Ada exclaimed.

Is it cool?

Joey thought dazedly.Antonio's hands are usually very warm, but along the way just now, his hands were cooler than hers.And it's getting colder.

A stone fell heavily on my heart.

"Patient's family! Is the patient's family here?"

"Miss Gordy!"

A nurse in a gray-black robe came over with a piece of paper, "Miss Gordy, there is good news and bad news."

Joey stood up immediately, couldn't help shaking, and quickly supported the wall: "Please say!"

"The good news is that Mr. Gaudi was very lucky. The bullet did not hurt the heart, and the damage to other vital organs was also limited." The nurse smiled.

Joey finally let out a breath that he had been tense for a long time. "What about the bad news?"

"Well...it's this." The nurse took out a piece of paper, "Although there was no fatal injury, the spinning bullet still caused damage to the main blood vessels. If you lose too much blood, you need a blood transfusion, otherwise you may not be able to survive."

"If blood is needed..."

"No, no, it's not." The nurse quickly clarified, "We have many volunteers who are willing to donate blood, please don't worry."

"However, in view of the high risk of blood transfusion, you need to sign a consent form."

"High risk?" Joey repeated suspiciously.Is it because the disinfection and sterilization are not in place?

It stands to reason that the theory of bacteria has been popularized in the medical field, so it should not be so.

She took the paper and glanced at it quickly.

"Patient's family members know that the mortality rate of blood transfusion therapy may exceed 50%, and it can only be used in emergencies such as rescuing dying patients..."

There was a "buzz" in Joey's mind: "Wait, the mortality rate is 50%?! How could it be so high?"

The nurse obviously saw too many family members who were immediately desperate after hearing this data.He patiently explained: "This is the data obtained from practice. As you can see, the risk is indeed very high, so unless there is really no other treatment plan, we generally will not use this method."

"Mr. Antonio has lost too much blood and is dying. He needs a blood transfusion immediately. Please make a decision as soon as possible."

wrong.

Joey's hand shaking while holding the consent form, tried to calm down: "Please tell me, how is the blood transfusion done?"

There must be something wrong.

Be sure to find out.

The nurse looked at the girl in front of her who was obviously pampered and did not have any hospital work experience, and couldn't help being a little surprised.What does she ask this for?At this critical juncture, it's just a waste of time.

"Miss, it's really urgent now." He reminded, "There's no time."

"Please tell me!" Joey grabbed his robe, almost pleading.

"Ah..." The nurse also looked into those purple eyes, and couldn't help being startled.

It was full of anxiety and worry, but it also shone with a strange light.

This strange light suddenly reminded him that Miss Gordy had used the magical first aid method to bring the dead back to life and saved the girl who died of electric shock.

Maybe she really has some insights?

So, with an inexplicable impulse, the nurse violated the previous request and introduced very quickly: "The doctor will use a catheter with a needle to connect the two arms together, so that the blood of the donor will be into the patient's body."

Joey was shocked.

Join the arms of the two people together.

So creepy.

It turns out that more than 100 years ago today, do people still transfuse blood like this?

"..." She already had some premonition in her heart, "So, will you do a blood type test?"

"Blood type test?" The nurse showed a puzzled expression.

"Well... Volunteers need to do disease screening. In addition, we usually transfuse men's blood to men and women's blood to women. Of course, the equipment will be sterilized, which can improve the survival rate."

……really.

Joey choked a breath in his throat.

In this era, people had not yet discovered blood types.

Blood transfusions between people of different blood types are very likely to cause coagulation reactions, which directly endanger life; and at this time, people receiving blood transfusions are still receiving blood entirely by luck.

How could such a blood transfusion have such a high survival rate?

Joey took a deep breath and took a step forward: "I'll go with you."

"I may have a way to improve the success rate of blood transfusion."
