#826 - Chapter 826: Difficulties in Treatment
"Hemostatic forceps..."
"Adrenaline..."
"Dexamethasone..."
"Lidocaine..."
"Morphine..."
Through the glass wall, Qin Jin could hear the busy medical staff inside calling out various medical terms one after another.
They were using various drugs to resuscitate the unconscious Li Bowen.
The severed hand had been initially treated, the shattered bone fragments embedded in the muscle had been cleaned out, and the wound had been simply treated.
Hemostasis, blood transfusion, and anti-inflammatory measures were also taken for various parts of the body.
At this moment, a key person in charge of Green Source Hospital ran over to report to him.
This middle-aged balding man, whose name was unknown but whose medical skills ranked among the top three in the base, was covered in sweat as he reported the situation to the leader.
"President Qin, we have treated Captain Li's external wounds and performed all necessary procedures, but his condition is very bad! His heart rate is declining slowly, and his blood indicators are extremely abnormal!!"
"It's like... it's like he's infected with the zombie virus!"
The doctor knew the general condition of Captain Li, because it was necessary to know the patient's condition during treatment, otherwise, accidentally touching the other party's blood and causing himself to be infected would be a disaster.
"Others are continuing to find ways to rescue Captain Li, but the current situation is completely beyond our capabilities! President Qin, please be prepared!"
The middle-aged man carefully glanced at Qin Jin's face, and was slightly relieved when he saw that he didn't seem too surprised.
Giving such an unsuccessful answer in front of this man was a lot of pressure for him.
His implication was naturally that he couldn't deal with the infection on Captain Li's body, and that Qin Jin should be ready to order the disposal of Li Bowen, who was about to turn into a zombie at any time.
"I understand."
"You don't need to handle the following matters, all of you get out."
Qin Jin's expression had been so solemn since he heard the news of the helicopter's return, and he wasn't too surprised to hear the doctor's words at this time.
He had never had any hope that ordinary medical means could solve something like the zombie virus.
This was not a problem that manpower and past medical technology could solve.
Coming to the hospital was just to make a final confirmation.
Judging from the discoloration of Captain Li's blood and the rapid detection indicators, it was estimated that he would completely mutate in half an hour to an hour.
Although he couldn't figure out why he mutated so slowly this time, it had been a full 3 hours since he was rescued in Shitaishi and took a helicopter back to the base!
Normally, ordinary survivors would mutate within about 10 minutes to half an hour after being infected with the zombie virus.
But he still hadn't turned into a zombie.
Qin Jin could only temporarily attribute it to the fact that Captain Li was an evolver and had been injected with D-serum twice, a drug made from substances extracted from mutated zombies.
Another possibility was related to the captive brought back by the Fuhai City forces.
In the final analysis, Captain Li was infected with the virus from that man.
This virus might be different from the virus in normal zombies.
Another experimental subject.
There was one more reason why that flat-headed man couldn't die.
After hearing Qin Jin's words, the balding doctor quickly evacuated the ordinary doctors inside.
Only some laboratory researchers were left!
Including Captain Li and Sun Lao, two big names in the laboratory!
Qin Jin certainly wouldn't forget to bring in the main members of the laboratory for Captain Li's treatment. On the one hand, it could increase the hope of saving Li Bowen, and on the other hand, it could also increase some research materials.
Whether the treatment was successful or not, some things still had to be done.
The ward was soon left with only the laboratory staff working busily, and Qin Jin continued to wait outside with Zhong Yu and some other cadres.
Captain Li had a high status in the base and was well-liked, and everyone didn't want to see him in trouble.
Trustworthy companions were very rare in the apocalypse, and it could really be said that one less was one less.
"How is Captain doing?! Please save him!"
At this moment, a figure ran in from outside, it was Yao Lei who couldn't help but run over after a simple treatment after getting off the helicopter.
Behind her were Zhou Xin and others from Li Bowen's team, they were all very worried about their captain's safety.
The terrifying situation of the captain being infected with the zombie virus made many people feel that this might be the last time they saw Captain Li.
Qin Jin didn't take the initiative to explain to them, but other cadres took the time to solve their doubts.
His gaze was on another person outside the hospital corridor.
That was an elderly man.
This person was Li Bowen's father!!
Although his presence in the base was very low, Qin Jin would not be negligent in the slightest.
He had promised these brothers something.
Walking up to the old man, Qin Jin put on the posture of a junior and said to him:
"Uncle, we will do our best to save Bowen."
He didn't make any guarantees, because there was really no 100% way to do this.
"......"
Li's father looked to be about seventy years old, but at this time he seemed very calm, as if the person lying in the ward was not his son.
He was silent for a while before replying to the leader of the base:
"I know, thank you, thank you for everything you have done for Bowen recently."
"I used to be a soldier, and my son is also a soldier! We are just doing what we should do."
As if stating some kind of fact.
After speaking, he shook his head and waved his hand at Qin Jin before silently waiting on the chair in the corridor again.
Qin Jin didn't force him.
He had known this Li's father for a long time, he was the only relative Li Bowen had found in the family search plan!
It's just that his personality seemed very stubborn. Usually, apart from participating in the work arrangements of the main base's core personnel, he spent most of his time in Li Bowen's house.
Qin Jin naturally knew everything about Captain Li's only relative.
The rescue was still going on inside.
A group of Green Source Base executives gathered in the corridor outside the ward, waiting for good news.
Qin Jin was also waiting.
This time, he was allowed to use all the base's current resources to save Li Bowen.
Even the regeneration liquid extracted and prepared from the tank's body was taken in and allowed to be used!
This was an extremely magical drug that could heal human injuries extremely quickly.
According to previous experiments, this thing also had a certain resistance and repair ability to the zombie virus.
It's just that everyone had to put a question mark on whether it would be fully effective.
Because according to previous experiments, it was not too smooth.
The laboratory used the captured live subjects to conduct virus immunity experiments, and almost all failed, with only a few special exceptions.
But it was not a cure and immunity to the zombie virus, but a state of sleep.
A state of suspended mutation, as if in a dormant vegetative state.
