Episode 117 Confirmation of Death [2]
“ah… … “Are you going to dissect it right away?”
“then… … .”
“what… … .”
“But you can’t see that!”
“This is invalid!”
“Do it in the theater!”
The crowd seemed to agree with Liston’s words at first glance, but… … .
But that didn’t mean things got quiet.
On the contrary, more disturbing remarks were coming out than before.
‘theater… … ? ‘Did you say theater?’
I wanted to do the dissection in some kind of theater, but… … .
Surprisingly, the dissection during this period was kind of… … What should I say?
show?
Calling it a show might sound like too much, but it really was.
William Burke, hanged last year.
What happened to that person?
‘The verdict is so shocking that I can’t forget it.’
My brain is good, but my memory isn’t at the level of a photo memory, so I couldn’t remember the whole sentence, but only the last sentence.
-Your body will be publicly dissected and used for dissection practice, and your skeleton will be preserved so that future generations will remember your evil deeds.
This wasn’t just said in words, it was dissected in public.
At this time, being public did not mean opening it to the media, but making it available for anyone to see in a square or theater.
So is this a very rare case?
That wasn’t it either.
There’s even an anatomy theater?
The name… … What was it?
Oh, really, Padua?
“A theater… … .”
“Look, Pyeong. “It’s a great opportunity.”
“yes?”
“You know from what I saw earlier… … Most people still don’t know your name. Is this how it should be? “You are a greater doctor than anyone I know.”
“but… … theater… … .”
“Pyeong. “Aren’t you confident in dissection?”
Because it’s me… … .
If it wasn’t there, it would be even weirder.
Wouldn’t it be?
Even in the 21st century, I am a surgeon who masters anatomy and has already performed many surgeries on real people.
What he was saying was that he was confident that he would do well even if all the doctors in the 21st century sat down with him.
But the 19th century?
“I’m confident.”
“okay. “I know you feel guilty in strange places.”
“hmm.”
It’s not that it’s strange, it’s natural… … .
Isn’t he a great person who can be persuaded here?
So I stayed silent.
Looking at how things were going, Liston’s words didn’t work very well for them.
Whatever it was, I was a stranger from somewhere else, so it would have been right to listen to the locals.
“But will there ever be another opportunity to show my skills in front of so many people?”
“Ugh. There won’t be any, right? Maybe?”
“okay. Unfortunately, there are many people who will look at you with colored glasses because of your skin color. Even at our hospital right now… … Aside from the money-crazy director and Blundell, there are a lot more people who don’t like you. Even if they know that you are good at something, there will be a lot of people who will spread strange rumors about you. But what if the crowd knows?”
It was so smooth that I wondered if this gentleman’s tongue was ever so smooth.
Plus, it felt sincere.
but.
Doesn’t this guy really care about me?
Even though he sometimes shows vicious behavior… … .
Blundell hit me, but I didn’t, so just by looking at that, I could tell how terrible this man thought of me.
“All right.”
“Okay then. “You should come forward and speak out.”
“Me?”
“You should do it, right?”
“hmm.”
“You clean your mouth well. “Try it.”
“Mmm.”
Suddenly, I found myself standing in front of a crowd.
Although I can’t help but sigh… … .
Yes, if I try to rob him again, I’ll do well.
It is this body that was presented at the 100-Nal Thousand-Nal Society.
“Hello, this is Dr. Pyeong. Originally… … We tried to proceed with only doctors, but… … Anyway, since I was dissecting to teach a certain type of surgery, I think it might be better to conduct it in a theater.”
“Waaaaaa!”
“Justice!”
“Anatomy!”
As soon as I said that, a waaaa sound was heard.
I love it so much.
haha.
these guys.
Does dissection in the theater really mean something I would enjoy so much?
Anyway, I had something to say, so I continued.
“But as the dissection itself was not the purpose… … We need to allow other doctors to come up on the podium as well. If that’s the case, you’d need a fairly large theater… … I wonder if this is possible… … ?”
Will I become a star?
Okay, this is it.
But that’s actually… … .
So it’s not that urgent for me?
It will happen someday.
So what’s important right now is… … .
The goal is to teach surgery to as many people as possible.
‘Given the current atmosphere, I think we’ll be left behind if we don’t do this… … ‘Wouldn’t the chief take care of it?’
So, without speaking, I looked towards the chief.
Just a moment ago, the chief seemed really at ease.
Because he threw the ball at us?
But what?
I think you need to do some theater casting, right?
“uh… … .”
The chief looked embarrassed to suddenly receive the ball like that.
“Catch the theater!”
“catch!”
“Catch it somehow!”
I think I just cursed under my breath.
But what can I do?
Why should I curse at you… … .
“that… … .”
“The police chief must hold the theater!”
“You bastards! Catch it!”
“catch!”
uh?
If you don’t take it, you’ll die.
know?
Here really… … .
Is it bad for public safety?
It’s unlikely that someone of the police chief’s rank will have to walk alone through the back alleys of London, but if that happens, I’m sure we’ll see him in the dissection lab in the not-so-distant future.
“I will take responsibility and catch you. theater… … To the biggest place… … .”
“Waaaaaaa!”
“Long live the police chief!”
“Waaaaaaa!”
“Justice!”
There was no way he wouldn’t know that, so I just accepted it.
He’s a police chief or something, so he’ll find a good place, right?
“ruler… … then… … I will carry out your sentence. I’ve waited a long time. then… … “Bring it.”
“yes!”
Anyway, when the police chief nodded and asked for poison, the officers began to move frantically, and the crowd became as quiet as a ghost.
Aren’t people going to die?
No matter how barbaric the 19th century was, it was natural to feel solemn for a moment… … .
“Kill!”
“Kill!”
Oh, no.
I just took my breath away to scream louder, these people.
It really seems like the death penalty is a kind of entertainment… … .
‘mind control… … Let’s do our best… … .’
There’s no need for me to be shaken just because those people are like that.
Moreover, this was a very important moment.
Death had to be confirmed.
‘These people…’ … Anyway, they probably think that if they dissect it, it will be a 100% confirmed kill.’
Dissection while alive… … .
It’s so scary to even think about it, but surprisingly, there weren’t any cases.
What did they say… … .
Yes, vivisection.
Herophilus is called the father of modern anatomy.
I heard that dissection was performed while alive as one of the methods of execution in ancient times, and that it was possible to even distinguish between motor and sensory nerves, the existence of nerves that there was no way to know at the time.
Although he was buried under the name of the devil’s knowledge, he was rediscovered as modern medicine took root… … .
‘I can’t do that, can I?’
uh?
No, how can I do something like that? … .
‘Be sure to check properly… … .’
As I was trying to compose myself, suspicious drugs were delivered to those who were considered the leading body robbers who were sitting on the platform with their limbs tied to chairs.
“Open your mouth!”
“Ugh.”
“Someone! Why is this guy so strong… … “Uh, professor.”
“Aaaah!”
How many people would open their mouths in a situation where it was obvious what would happen if they drank it?
Everyone was covering their mouths except for the one who had given up and the one who had been caught by his hair by Dr. Liston earlier.
Of course, no one lasted that long.
This was especially true for the children that Dr. Liston himself came forward with.
Even so, I wondered if it would be okay for a doctor to forcefully administer poison like that… … .
-I do dissection because I really want to save people. But I can’t stand being involved with crime.
When I remembered what I heard earlier, I understood again.
It’s because it’s rude, but isn’t it a steamed doctor?
The feeling of being insulted must have been great.
No matter how much someone insults me, I wouldn’t think of poisoning myself… … .
“Ugh, ugh.”
Anyway, those who drank began to collapse one by one.
Then he started vomiting or had diarrhea.
The reason is because I ate arsenic.
To be more precise, among the failed attempts to treat syphilis from our chemist, we gave him the most poisonous one.
therefore… … What they meant was that they were given a stronger version of arsenic, a colorless and odorless poison that already kills if taken in excessive doses.
“Don’t come any closer. “It must be mixed with poison.”
“Ah yes.”
One of them had already rolled out his eyes and I thought he was dead, so I started to walk away, but a police officer came out and stopped me.
When I thought about it, it was true.
When I was an intern, I remember being scolded for trying to approach a patient who was taken to the emergency room with intoxicated poison with my bare body.
“Wipe it off first… … Let’s see. “Anyway, we’ll clean it and feed it again when it wakes up.”
“ah… … yes.”
At the officer’s words, I decided to keep quiet for now.
It’s so scary.
I feel the will to kill him for sure.
For me, who is a doctor by name and who has lived both my past life and my current life to save others, it was a truly terrible moment.
If it were like before, I probably wouldn’t have vomited or fainted right away?
If you see that you are not doing that… … .
It seemed like I was getting used to it a lot.
“Now, let’s start with this guy.”
To wait like that… … .
That’s why it was so quiet, but in fact the crowd had been screaming all this time.
That’s right… … .
The charges given to each of these guys are the robbery and trafficking of at least 100 bodies… … .
They were serious criminals who really deserved to die.
“hmm.”
I approached one person who seemed to have died that way.
Just looking at the cancer, it seemed like he was just gone, but you never know.
So, I started by looking at muscle tension.
If you force yourself to hold your breath, you can hide the sound of your breathing, but there was absolutely nothing you could do about it.
It takes strength to endure something.
‘It would be a different story if my breathing naturally weakened… … .’
When I touched it, it didn’t seem like that.
No matter how many stimulations were applied, there was not even a slight movement.
Strangely enough, as I stood in front of the corpse, the things I had learned before came to mind and my body was moving.
Check your pupils, check your muscle tone, check your breathing… … .
Finally, he also brought a stethoscope.
‘hmm… … .’
Somehow, it wasn’t as good as what I originally used.
But at least it was much better than hearing it with my own ears.
Since it was an object made to imitate the ear, the sound was greatly amplified.
“Dead. But just in case, leave it like this for now and call his name from the side.”
“name… … ?”
“When a person dies, the last thing left is hearing… … It can also respond to stimulation through this.”
“Ah yes!”
I was just moving naturally, but Liston, the officers, and the crowd who were watching seemed to see it differently.
Somehow, the commotion was gradually dying down.
