Chapter 55 - Her Husband (1/2)
When Alexander was about to leave the tent, he saw the female who helped him standing at a corner. The female's face was white, and her right arm seemed to be extremely stiff. He went forward immediately and grabbed her hand. Her clothes were stained with blood and her face was distorted due to the pain.
”Do you not want your arm anymore?!” Alexander didn't know why he was so angry when he saw the girl keeping quiet despite her arm was shot by a bullet.
”What are you getting angry for?!” The girl rebutted.
Due to anger, Alexander's grip on the girl's hand increased and the girl hissed in pain, ”Ssss!”
”Only now do you feel the pain?!” Alexander raised his voice while pulling the girl's sleeves up to look at the wound.
Her arm was not only shot by a bullet, but it was also injured by the poison needles.
Thinking back on how the girl had helped him, Alexander felt guilty. At the same time, he felt his heart ripping in pain.
He calmed his emotion while he went to take the antidotes.
”It will sting a little,” Alexander said gently as he injected the antidote into the girl that helped him here.
”Mm.”
”Thanks for helping me.”
”Welcome… Sss…”
”Bear with it for a little.”
”I know.”
”Done.”
Alexander looked at his watch to see if Mo Xi could hold on a while more before he brings the antidote to her. Luckily, Mo Xi wasn't hit at areas near the vital points, although she was badly injured and poisoned, she could hold on long enough for him to take out the bullet from the girl's arm.
The bullet on the girl's arm was near areas where the nerve was, hence the bullet had to be removed quickly.
”I must take out the bullets now, if not you will not be able to keep your arms.”
”Mm.”
Alexander grabbed the anesthesia and injected it into the girl's arm before he started to remove the bullet.
After a few minutes, he sewed up her wounds.
”Avoid using this arm for the time being. I need to bring the antidotes to Mo Xi.”
”Ok.”
Alexander was multilingual in the first place, so he was able to converse with all of them in Chinese. The only reason why he often spoke to Mo Xi in French was that his French pronunciation in the past wasn't very good, and his mother often complained about it. Hence, after meeting Mo Xi, Mo Xi forced him to practice his French.
After a few minutes, Alexander showed up outside the tent.
”She will be fine, don't worry… I will give them antidotes.” Alexander said to Jing Mo Chen as he walked into the tent while looking at his watch.
A while later, Alexander came out and waited for the operation to finish with Jing Mo Chen.
”How is she?” Jing Mo Chen asked
”Still being operated. But the poisons have been removed.”
