Dark-Haired British Doctor Chapter 4

Episode 4 19th Century [4]

This time too, I couldn't faint.

It seems that my mentality is much stronger than I thought.

Oh my god, I can't believe I'm still okay after seeing this.

“Come this way.”

Robert Liston gestured to me as he looked at me.

The old man had already run away far away, so Joseph and I had to follow him alone.

To be honest, I didn't want to follow along either.

'What is this fire?'

The 19th century was a more advanced era than we might think, with electric lights.

However, it was quite different from the lights we normally use. What should I call it?

Is this the kind of light that makes it seem like a ghost is about to appear?

This was especially true because there were actual corpses lined up there.

“Come and see. This is our body.”

It looked familiar to Robert Liston.

It was natural.

Even though he looks like a boss, he's actually a professor here.

Moreover, as he was a surgeon, anatomy would have been more important to him than to other doctors.

'But I don't think learning this way is right… … ?'

The body pointed to by the man who appeared to be Dr. Liston had its stomach opened.

First of all, I didn't like the fact that the incision was made in the shape of an X.

Of course, it was a possible incision.

If the purpose is an autopsy.

But maybe it's because I saw you cut off my leg earlier…

'You wouldn't do surgery like this, right? Huh? No way. Huh?'

I kept having a feeling that this would happen to real patients too.

“This is… … huh? It’s called a spleen. I don’t know what it does yet, but I think it has some function.”

spleen.

hmm.

It didn't originally look like that.

I don't know how long this body had been dead, but in any case, its original shape had been destroyed.

“This is the liver.”

The liver was relatively close to a circular shape.

Yeah, that's right.

“This is above. The intestines are connected below. If you look at the back, there’s this strange, squishy thing.”

That's the pancreas.

“If you happen to see a corpse coming in quickly, you can see the pancreas.”

Oh, I see.

I was so lucky.

Did you think I didn't know?

Yeah, well, 19th century medicine wasn't all that bad.

In just 100 years from now, it will be the 20th century.

I, too, was born in the 20th century.

“Let’s see behind this… … Where… … Right. This is the kidney. See the tube? This is where urine goes down.”

The explanation continued after that.

There was something very strange about watching it.

Maybe it was because I had seen so many strange things, but I couldn't immediately remember what exactly was strange.

Even there wasn't much time.

"town……."

Well, I know the original structure and I'm good enough at anatomy to turn Dr. Liston's cheek three or four times, so I'm holding on by roughly recalling the past.

Joseph can't do that either, can he?

For this guy, dissection was at best limited to shrimp or frogs.

I did all the cutting and showing, and this guy just watched.

“Eww!”

It was brave just to have held out until now.

“Put it here.”

“Wow… … There’s something like this? Oh.”

Dr. Liston must have thought so too, as he thrust a tin can under the corpse table with a quizzical expression on his face.

and.

That was harder for me.

I could see traces of my seniors not cleaning properly inside.

You motherfu*kers.

No matter how dirty the anatomy lab is, it's like that.

You guys are medical students and are going to be doctors, so you should at least have some sense of hygiene ingrained in you!

'If I were a professor here, there are many people I would hang… … .'

With that thought in mind, I patted Joseph on the back as he struggled to leave one more trace.

'You held out long enough, too.'

Joseph was no ordinary man.

I knew she was pretty good, but now that I look at her, she's got a podium too.

First of all, it was surprising that he vomited and didn't faint.

Honestly, this is… … .

It's not just a horrible sight for doctors to see, it's a horrible sight to just look at.

It was to the point where I felt like it was closer to what the average person would think of when they think of an anatomy lab.

Lesser!

At that moment, the door opened.

It wasn't the door we opened and came in.

A door opened in a dark and back room that made you wonder if there was a door there.

“Oh, you guys are so lucky.”

"yes?"

Then a group of people who seemed like they would only do really bad things barged in.

But you're lucky.

Is there going to be a fight?

Well, even if they were to attack right away, I thought we could just have Dr. Liston here with us.

It takes 30 seconds to cut a leg, so wouldn't it take 1 second to cut a thin neck?

Knock knock-

Anyway, the group came in pulling something like a carriage.

No, it was a cart rather than a carriage.

It was covered with a giant rock.

Below… … .

'It's a corpse.'

Yes, no matter how you look at it, it was covered with a corpse.

“I am sorry, Professor.”

Real?

Isn't that a corpse?

What else are you trading?

Hullahdung-

But when Liston removed the giant's body, there it was, lying there.

What the fu*k.

You fu*king dogs.

“Oh, I see. It looks like it died not long ago. It hasn’t even cooled down yet.”

“Yes? Oh, yes. That’s right. I just got it.”

Doesn't it still sound strange, Professor?

They brought me a corpse that hadn't even cooled down.

Aren't these kids murderers?

I think it would be okay to look at the face as evidence.

This may be a bias, but honestly, even a detective with 20 years of experience would arrest these guys first, right?

“Good job. Good job.”

“Yes, then… … how much… … .”

“Here it is. It’s in great condition. It’s young too. It will be a great help to our research.”

“Oh my, thank you always.”

“No. I am grateful. All of our students become doctors thanks to you. Be proud.”

“Yes, Professor!”

No, you can't give money, Professor.

These guys… … Huh?

Do you know where this body came from?

No.

Are you sure you're bringing it?

Isn't that how you do it so quickly?

“There are a lot of questionable deaths in London.”

So, you punk! Don't say things like that!

Don't just dismiss all deaths as suspicious!

“But those guys are trustworthy. Other guys come in carrying bodies with stab wounds in the stomach or strangulation marks on the neck… … Look.”

After listening to it, I felt a little less angry.

Well, didn't Dr. Liston say he was the best doctor in London?

A person of this caliber wouldn't be supplying corpses to murderers, would he?

Isn't that common sense?

“Isn’t it clean?”

“Ah. Yes. It’s clean.”

“Yes. I understand that they bring patients who have died while waiting in the hospital. I don’t know the details, though.”

“Oh, I see.”

It made me a little uneasy to hear that you didn't know the details.

It's the feeling that you don't know because you don't want to know, right?

Because I feel like I'll get hurt if I know the details?

“Anyway, I’ve become busy.”

Regardless of what I was thinking, Dr. Liston began to move diligently.

I wondered why it was like that.

Is there something urgent right now?

“You guys should go now. Call your father.”

“Oh, yes.”

It was a good thing.

I wanted to get out of here so badly.

But I was afraid that if I showed too much, she would get mad and say it was rude.

Anyone who looked at that face and that body would have no trouble controlling their anger.

“Let’s go out.”

“Huh? Huh?”

“Are you okay?”

“Huh? Yeah. I guess so.”

“Can you be a surgeon?”

“I want to.”

“Uh… … Okay.”

And then I took care of Joseph.

Wipe the vomit off your lips before you speak.

If you want to do it like that, Inma, it's not credible.

Squeak-

As I opened the door and went out, an old man stood there, looking haggard in an instant.

As if the cotton wasn't enough to block the smell, he was also tightly blocking his nose with his forearm.

“Oh, Mr. Liston.”

“I’m sorry. Earlier I… … .”

“No, haha. Anyway, they both look talented.”

“Yes? Really?”

Really?

Are you a fortune teller?

All we know about us now is our names and faces, so how can you talk about talent?

“This guy in particular is very generous, he’s perfect for a surgeon. If your son is like this… … he usually reacts like his father.”

“Heh heh. Then… … .”

“You are welcome to enroll. All you have to do is pay the fee. The new semester starts next month, so you can come then.”

Yes? Admission?

You're coming here?

no…….

I don't think it will work?

In the first place, do you just get into medical school without taking an exam?

“Oh. Okay. I will do that.”

Of course, my opinion didn't really matter.

Wouldn't the intention of the person paying be the most important?

“Wow! Hurray!”

Besides, the kid liked it so much.

Joseph you bastard.

Looking here, it's like that… … like that… … .

‘Wow… … Now that I think about it, isn’t this person really something special?’

I just noticed it now.

Why did I feel something was strange?

This human.

Dr. Liston.

It's bare hands.

‘Surgery and dissection, all done with bare hands… … .’

I wish I could just do martial arts with my bare hands.

'Did you wash your hands?'

I don't think that would have been the case.

It looks like there's no plumbing system at all inside.

I couldn't even hear the sound of water.

But are you coming here?

“Okay, here it is… … It’s not much, but it’s your first donation.”

Perhaps because he was a businessman, he had a hearty side, unlike a coward like me.

I wish you'd stop being so generous.

I already gave you the money.

It didn't seem like a small amount of money.

Dr. Liston's face, which had been looking inside furtively, brightened like a full moon.

“Hahaha! You are really great students!”

And we became excellent students without even enrolling.

Dagdak-

On the way back, I was so exhausted that I couldn't speak properly.

In contrast, the old man and Joseph were chattering away about something so enjoyable.

“Father, is there anything else I need to prepare?”

“I guess I’ll need to buy some books first. I’ll also need a room to stay in London.”

“Oh, so does that mean we have to live apart?”

“It’s close by. And since you come every week, you don’t have to worry about that. I’m more worried about him than you. Taepyeong. The priest named you that so that you would live a peaceful life. Why are you so sad?”

It's not a time to be at peace, you rascal…

Even after seeing that just now… … Huh?

There is a medical school that you can get into by paying money… … .

That's what it looks like…

'No. No. Where would I fit in my topic?'

But when I thought about it positively, I realized that it wasn't a bad thing.

Aren't we living in a time when there are people who consider Asians not as people but as some kind of animal?

No matter how smart I am, will I be able to get into medical school?

I didn't think it would happen.

So, this was the last chance.

“No, well. It’s a good thing. It’s a good thing… … .”

That didn't make me feel any better.

All the scenes I saw today flashed through my head like a panorama.

“Hey, hey!”

Finally passed out.
