Chapter Fifty-Eight: Take a Daze

After visiting Yaheng who was in a coma, Corporal Linn proposed to meet John who was also in a coma. He had been in John's shop all day, but apart from the photos, he had never seen a real person!

There is an old saying that goes, "You have been crying for a long time, and you don't know who is dead." I know this, but I haven't seen it yet!

Corporal Lin En's proposal, Chu Long heartily agreed with both hands. The outcome of the case is not yet known, but the victim must be seen anyway!

For the convenience of care and smooth protection, Yaheng and John were in wards on the same floor, separated by just a few wards.

The basic layout of John's ward is the same as that of Yaheng's. The only thing is that there is an extra ventilator. This kind of medical equipment is also the latest medical product. It was just put into use in London this year. For patients like John, it can be said

It is the gospel from God.

Two nurses in white clothes were examining the unconscious John in the ward. The white quilt covered half of his body, and the other half was blocked by the nurse. This is what Chu Long saw the first time he entered the ward.

.

Dr. Alston did not follow Chu Long and others to the ward. As John was seen three times a day, there was no need to keep an eye on him all the time. Nurses would conduct regular checks on him at regular intervals, unless there was an emergency.

.

An unknown smell of potion that belongs only to the ward poured into the nasal cavity when Chu Long and others actually entered the ward. It was hard to tell what the smell was, but it just didn’t smell good. It’s a pity that Chu Long is not a medical student. If he were, not only

You can distinguish the special smell and check Yaheng's condition.

Aldrich had planned to become a doctor when he was a child. Sailing on the vast seas allowed him to appreciate the beauty of the sea and the sky, but he also had to bear the diseases caused by sailing on the seas. Rheumatism and cardiovascular diseases were more common, which was not the case.

Not only Aldrich and his crew members are in this situation, many people who sail at sea all year round are very likely to get sick. This is just a general situation. If you go to cities in certain countries and get infected and bring them back to the ship,

That's not uncommon either.

But in the end, Aldrich didn't study medicine. He just had a brief contact with the ship's doctor on the ship, but he still didn't understand the system.

After Chu Long and others entered the ward, the nurse's routine inspection came to an end, and then she left the ward with a trolley containing medicines.

It was only then that Chu Long and others looked at John who was lying on the hospital bed with an oxygen mask. The tall John in the photo was lying motionless on the hospital bed. His face was so pale that he couldn't believe that it was the handsome man in the photo. His head was

The whole body was wrapped in white gauze, and there was faint red oozing out from the edge of the gauze. A slight sound of breathing came out through the oxygen mask, but the eyes were still closed tightly, as tight as two gates.

The ground is closed.

After Chu Long and others visited John, they found Dr. Alston in the hospital office and learned from him that John had suffered a serious head injury. In this case, the patient may wake up in a few days, or it may take several years, or even

He may become a vegetative state. In this regard, the hospital hopes that his family can accompany him, which will help the hospital's treatment.

Chu Long and others were unable to help with the suggestions put forward by the hospital. He had no relatives left in his family. If he had any, they were definitely not in London. Who knows where in the corner of the UK he was?

After returning from the hospital, Osmond first proposed to go back to the room to rest, and left first on the grounds that he would go to the Metropolitan Police Department tomorrow to cooperate with the case. Corporal Lin En and Chu Long came to the leisure area and ordered two glasses of whiskey and sat by the window.

Location, during the casual chat, Corporal Lin En started talking about the case and the story of Chu Long’s original life at sea.

The leisure area and the restaurant are a bit similar, both have a gramophone, but the gramophone is a larger model than the one in the restaurant. Different music is often played to attract customers, even though it is almost nine o'clock in the evening.

At ten o'clock, there are still many customers here talking about interesting topics.

The time was spent chatting between Chu Long and Corporal Lin En. An hour later, Corporal Lin En became sleepy. He said goodbye to Chu Long and went back to the room to rest. However, Chu Long had something on his mind and couldn't fall asleep, so he stayed alone.

Sitting in my seat, drinking wine and listening to music in a daze.

Chu Long, who was sitting alone in the leisure area, was in a daze listening to the music played by the gramophone. He didn't know when the music changed. It was a very familiar piece of music. Even if Chu Long lived on the boat all year round, he heard it.

Everyone knows the music, Symphony No. 6 in F major, also known as the "Pastoral Symphony". This is one of the works of Beethoven, who is known as the "Music Saint" by the world.

"Pastoral Symphony" has five movements, and the second movement is playing in the leisure area now, describing "Small Scenery by the Brook". You can hear the accompaniment of the violin in the music played, and the music is played as if you are in a clear place.

By the creek, you can feel the vastness of nature.

The change of music caused Chu Long, who was in a daze, to end his daze. He turned around and waved to the waiter at the bar. A slender waiter walked over to him and asked in a friendly voice: "Hello, sir, may I ask?

Do you need anything?"

"A glass of cherry brandy and today's Daily Mail."

"Okay sir, please wait a moment!" The waitress turned and walked towards the bar.

Chu Long closed his eyes and listened to the music quietly, touching the round table with his fingers silently. At this moment, someone walked by and asked him a question.

"Excuse me, sir, can I sit here?"

Chu Long slowly opened his eyes and looked up at the person who asked the question. The first thing he saw was an angular face, a tall nose, sharp blue eyes, glowing with a gem-like color, and a hat with a

The military cap with the cap badge looks like a heroic middle-aged man.

Although he is a middle-aged man, his condition is better than that of a young man! This soldier is different!

Chu Long looked around and found that there were many more people nearby unknowingly, and he was the only one with an empty seat by the window.

Chu Long's face was full of surprise, and there were just a few question marks on his head. What's going on? He looked at the watch hanging not far away. It was already eleven o'clock. These people were taking stimulants and were not sleeping.

.

Forget it! Don’t worry about other people, there’s still someone in front of you!

"Okay." Chu Long glanced at the soldier and said immediately.

The middle-aged man sat down opposite and gestured to the waiter not far away. He ordered a cup of black tea and a scone while looking at the entire leisure area.

When the waiter asked the middle-aged man what he wanted, he also brought over the pieces and newspapers that Chu Long wanted.

Chu Long looked at the middle-aged man opposite and saw that he was sizing up the people around him. He did not talk to him rashly and just drank the brandy. (The so-called clean drinking means drinking pure brandy without adding any foreign substances.) Read

Holding a newspaper.

The content in the "Daily Mail" is not much different from that in the "Times". It is nothing more than the turmoil in the political or business world. This is not what Chulong has now seen. A newspaper in London that has been in business for decades has been accused of false reporting.

The lawsuit was filed in the High Court. The newspaper listed the court date and the reasons for both parties on a full page, and reported the relevant news according to the facts.

News like this attracts the most attention of the public. After dinner, people will share the conclusions they have drawn after reading the newspaper with others, continue the discussion with those who agree with them, argue a few words with those who disagree, and share the conclusions in the newspaper with others.

The report became their talking point.
