Episode 128 Stop [4]
When I think about it, it was a strange thing.
Why should I… … Huh? Do I have to ask you not to do such an obvious thing?
uh?
no…….
If you think about it even a little, it's like that.
“Plain.”
"yes."
Did you read the discontent on my face?
Liston spoke to me with a slightly serious expression on his face.
I glanced at the old man lying far away.
“I mean, not being able to pee. This is harder than dying.”
“Is that the case for you too, brother?”
“Me? I’m still okay. But my father was like that too… … He suffered greatly because of this in his later years.”
"hmm."
It's hard… … .
Well, it couldn't be helped.
First of all, the problem is that I can't urinate…
In addition, as people get older, they tend to suffer from other illnesses.
Among them is diabetes, which was an incurable disease before insulin was developed.
This is being described as if it is a modern-day disease, but… … .
Isn't this a disease that has actually caused a lot of problems throughout history, but has only increased in modern times?
'If you have diabetes… … you have problems with your nerves, and then you have urinary problems… … and then you have uncontrolled prostatic hyperplasia… … ?'
It was as if God had just given the order for me to die at this point.
Perhaps that old man also had the surgery because he thought it would be better to die than live like this?
Otherwise, I don't think I would have gotten the surgery done in such a suspicious place.
“There are many desperate people. Among my patients right now, and among my acquaintances… … there are many who are willing to use any method. But what is the current treatment for benign prostatic hyperplasia?”
“It’s dangerous and, above all, ineffective.”
I recalled Liston's words, the instruments that were in the professor's room, and the booklets and papers on surgical techniques.
I think I've come up with a few different ideas, but…
Still, it seemed like there wasn't much improvement.
So, you must have thought of castration.
“Yes, but if… … it is proven that improvement is possible with that surgery, then I have no other choice. I have no choice but to recommend it.”
“Yes? No matter what… … !”
“Can’t we just leave him to die? I find this a bit jarring, too. In fact, when I first heard it from you, I was thinking about killing Harry.”
“Oh.”
I thought it would be a good fit to say that you become a doctor and kill someone.
So that's why Harry also closed his eyes tightly.
I guess he really felt threatened that he could die.
But at that moment, Liston's face changed completely.
“But… … After hearing the story more, it definitely makes sense. After all, what kind of person is our professor… … He wouldn’t have removed someone else’s… … precious thing without any basis.”
no…….
I think he's a bad person, or at least a crazy person… … .
Even so, isn't that so?
“Anyway, my point is this. If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t be saying this. But… … .”
Liston was nodding his head even while I was dumbfounded.
It seemed like he was looking for something to say, or the right words.
It took some time.
It was frustrating, but in some ways it was a good thing.
All this time, I was able to rationalize this situation in my own way.
'Yeah… … I don't know anything about hormones yet.'
It was probably in the late 19th or early 20th century that hormones were discovered.
It wasn't a very important issue for me as a clinical physician, but I still remember it because it's a hormone.
In modern medicine, it may be hard to think of any other substance that has been given as much attention as hormones.
Plus, one of my best friends was an endocrinologist, and his nickname was "hormone crazy."
'So… … we don't know what will happen if the place that secretes male hormones disappears.'
Male hormones.
It would not be an exaggeration to say that he was the guy who made it possible for men to be men.
It disappears?
Then, you become a person who is neither a man nor a woman… … .
Even if you choose knowingly, it won't be easy, but if you choose without knowing, how will you handle the aftermath?
'I don't know… … so I'm doing this. It could be a rational choice.'
But this was an age of ignorance.
It would not be an exaggeration to say that we knew nothing about most of the positive knowledge that modern medicine has achieved.
So it could be like this.
This could happen.

As I kept repeating this, my mind became much better than before.
“I believe in your genius. Please… … Please come up with a surgical technique within a few months. Until then, I will take responsibility and tie his hands. I will also make sure that the patients do not say anything harsh. If even a rumor spreads… … It may be worse than if he comes forward.”
To summarize what Liston said, if it became known that castration actually made urination easier, our 19th century doctors with their crazy experimental spirit… no, even if they weren’t doctors, just guys who were good at cutting teeth could step up.
It may sound ridiculous, but it really happened.
“Anyway, you do that… … Harry.”
"yes yes."
As the atmosphere had been serious for a long time, Harry used extremely polite language when he heard Liston speak.
The attitude was the same.
With his knees tightly folded and his hands clasped tightly, the boy listened to Dr. Liston.
“How many surgeries did you have today?”
“Four, four people.”
“But why are there only two of you here?”
“Ha, one died… … .”
“Die?”
Liston sighed, “Haaah.”
I also took a moment of silence with a sigh.
oh my god…….
To think that someone would die after undergoing surgery like this.
What kind of bizarre death is this?
“What about the other one?”
“I went home because I heard there was something urgent.”
“At home? No… … After that kind of surgery, at home… …?”
Liston looked back, not understanding.
There were two old men, one was the one I had identified, the one with the red wet area around his groin, and the other was the one lying there blankly, seemingly not bleeding.
No matter how I look at it, it doesn't seem like I'll be able to go home safely… … .
“Yes. Yes. To the house… … He is a very high-ranking official.”
“Don’t lie. Something like you… … .”
“I originally wanted to get it from the professor, but something came up and he came to me.”
“What the hell.”
If he was a professor, he would have been a pretty prestigious person.
No, even if the individual did not know, the hospital now had an enormous reputation not only in London but throughout England.
In addition to anesthesia, this was thanks to Liston's amputation surgery and treatment for phantom pain.
So, what this guy is saying is pretty credible… … .
"anyone?"
“Jamie Bell… … .”
“This is crazy. A noble… … ? This… … This is going to be difficult to completely block within my line.”
Liston shook his head.
I was pouring out my frustrations, thinking, "This won't do."
A sigh escaped my mouth as I watched it.
This can't be happening.
I never thought I'd hear something like that coming out of Liston's mouth…
What kind of great person must he be to do something like that?
“Prayer… … No. But then again… … I can’t become a doctor and make the patient suffer more… … Haa… … This is really. Plain.”
"yes."
“I don’t think it will take even a few months. If this is improved in just a few weeks… … there is a chance that rumors will spread among the nobles. If they call this guy… … even I can’t stop him.”
“Then the butcher will go and castrate the nobles… … is that what you mean?”
“Right. I’ll try my best to make that impossible… … Hmm. Okay, let’s just kidnap them.”
"yes?"
A little while ago, I would have wondered if it was okay to say the word kidnapping so confidently.
After all, we are doctors, right?
But if we were to castrate the dog, that had to be prevented.
"first of all……."
“Ugh.”
Liston hit the nail on the head.
Then, just like in the comics, Harry fainted.
While it seemed as if Harry might have died, Liston left the collapsed Harry behind and approached the patients.
“Ugh… … .”
Naturally, the patients were nervous.
No matter how you looked at it, Liston was the gang leader who had beaten up a good doctor.
“If you speak nicely, shall we go together?”
"uh……."
I thought that saying that would only deepen the misunderstanding, but anyway, the patients hurriedly got on the carriage even though they were in the middle of a major surgery.
Looking at their coordinated appearance, I thought it would be okay to leave them as they were for now.
Right away.
Anyway, we kidnapped three of them, no, one of them was kidnapped, and the other two… … .
Okay, let's say we decide to transfer.
It's a bit forced, but… … .
Even in the 21st century, if the patient is not in a situation where he or she can make a proper judgment, this is what is done, right?
Of course, I should have contacted the guardian separately, but before I could even put an end to my worries, I had already arrived at the hospital.
“They all came.”
“Okay. First, the patients… … go to the amputation ward.”
"yes?"
“I did cut it.”
“Ah… … Well, well… … I cut it off.”
Dr. Liston took the two patients to the amputation ward with a plausible theory.
In some ways, it was an efficient choice, since there was equipment and personnel there to tie up and confine the patient, including a restraint unit.
“Oh, no.”
Harry?
This guy headed a little deeper.
“Dr. Cain. Please.”
“Absenteeism? No, Harry. Butcher. Why is he here?”
“Save me!”
Kane, the leader in stone removal surgery.
He was already sharpening his sharp knife on the whetstone.
The appearance was gloomy and he was truly the embodiment of a dark assassin.
It was no coincidence that Harry was more nervous than when he faced Liston.
“Kill… no, not kill me. Tie me to the restraints over there.”
“Huh? Execution?”
“No, that’s not it. Actually… … .”
I glanced at Kane's leather restraint and told him the whole story.
Then, even Cain, who had been performing only horrible surgeries for a hundred days, stuck out his tongue.
In fact, since the area he deals with is similar, he has occasionally had surgery for benign prostatic hyperplasia, but he had never really thought about this before.
oh my god…….
“That’s crazy. But it works?”
As he was so touched, I had to continue talking without hesitation.
“No, I don’t know yet! And it might be possible just by improving the existing method a little!”
“Hmm. Hmm.”
“Please stop thinking about cutting other people… … .”
“Well, I can’t do that right now because I have a surgery pending. But if it works… … and if it doesn’t improve, I can definitely give it a try.”
What the fu*k.
How is it that there isn't a single sane person here… … .
‘Since it has come to this, I definitely have to make it… … .’
Well, it was okay.
Because I knew very well how future surgeries would be performed.
okay…….
You can do it.
I can do it.
