Chapter 307 is arsenic
Zhao Dahu calmed down and looked at Chu Yue.
Chu Yue did not take action immediately, but bowed respectfully three times.
This is the rule in the medical school. Every corpse is their cadaver teacher and must be respected.
"I'm starting."
Chu Yue opened the white cloth, undid the clothes on the corpse, and cut open the old, gray skin with a sharp scalpel.
Along with the smell of blood, a foul odor spread out.
Even the experienced military doctors Hao and Zhou couldn't help but turn their heads away and cover their noses; Zhao Dahu had never seen such a scene before, his stomach was churning and he almost vomited several times.
His face was pale, and he forced himself to hold it back.
As for that direction... Zhao Dahu didn't dare to look at it again.
However, Chu Yue stood there, calm and composed, without even a frown on her face. She seemed not to smell anything and treated everything in front of her as a mere research object.
From the chest to the stomach, all the internal organs, heart, liver, spleen, lungs and kidneys...
She examined everything in great detail, checking the location of the poisoning and the organs that had undergone pathological changes.
It lasted for two hours. Doctor Hao and Doctor Zhou were injured and poisoned respectively. They could not hold on any longer and left the warehouse.
Zhao Dahu sent them out and handed them over to Zhang Weimin for care.
He returned to Chu Yue's side, "Chu...Chu...Boss..."
"My current identity is a military doctor, you can call me Doctor Xiao Chu." Chu Yue said calmly without raising her head.
Zhao Dahu whispered, "Doctor Xiao Chu, is there anything I can help you with?"
Chu Yue said, "There are gloves in the medicine box. Put them on and then hand me the tools I need."
So, Zhao Dahu did as Chu Yue said, put on gloves, stood by, and occasionally handed over the necessary tools.
After a long time.
Chu Yue came to a conclusion in her mind. She restored everything, especially the incision made at the beginning. She took the surgical forceps and surgical thread in her hand and began to sew it up stitch by stitch.
At this moment, she glanced at Zhao Dahu distractedly. There was a deep sadness on the young man's face that could not be dispelled.
Chu Yue sighed and asked, "Zhao Dahu, does your father have a smoking habit?"
"...Yes, he smokes dry tobacco." Zhao Dahu's father became addicted to smoking because he lost his son at an early age, and he never put down his cigarette for decades.
"I examined your father's lungs. They've shrunk by 50 percent, and there are signs of various diseases. If he lived normally, he probably wouldn't survive this year."
Chu Yue's words may not necessarily comfort Zhao Dahu.
It seems that there is no better choice between sudden death from poisoning and a painful death from lung disease.
She just hoped that Zhao Dahu could relax a little.
Chu Yue continued, "Zhao Dahu, please accept my condolences. I will do my best to make your father's wounds as invisible as possible."
While speaking, Chu Yue's hands never stopped moving. She was serious and careful, stitching up the wound bit by bit.
Zhao Dahu lowered his head, his eyes red, and kept saying, "Thank you, thank you, Doctor Xiao Chu."
After everything was ready, Chu Yue and Zhao Dahu walked out of the warehouse.
Doctor Hao, who was waiting outside, stood up immediately with his cane. "Xiao Chu, have you found out?"
Doctor Zhou also stood up in a hurry, his eyes full of expectation resting on Chu Yue, and he regarded Chu Yue as the hope of the whole village.
Chu Yue nodded, "It's arsenic."
"Arsenic?!"
Everyone was terrified, their eyes wide open, and Zhang Weimin shouted out loud.
"How could it be arsenic? Could it be... someone poisoned it?! This wasn't an accident, someone really poisoned it?! There are so many people in the village, who poisoned them, and killed so many people in one go? How can we investigate... How can we investigate..."
Zhang Weimin was so frightened that he paced back and forth.
Since the accident happened, most people thought it was an accident and caused by an unknown toxin. After all, the people in the village knew each other well, and no one would be cruel enough to poison so many people at once.
But arsenic...it's highly poisonous!
The possibility of deliberate poisoning has greatly increased, and the poisoner is still in the village, so Zhang Weimin is so scared.
Doctor Zhou was out of breath and almost collapsed, gasping for air in huge gulps.
Doctor Hao said carefully, "Xiao Chu, if it's arsenic, then someone poisoned us, and the nature of the matter is different. Are you sure?"
"I'm sure. After the autopsy, I saw the victim's internal organs. Judging from the location of the poisoning and the pathological phenomena, it must be arsenic. I won't be wrong." Chu Yue was absolutely confident in her medical knowledge.
However, Chu Yue had another conclusion, "Doctor Hao, I don't think it was intentional poisoning."
Doctor Hao frowned and asked, "Please tell me your opinion in detail."
"First, too many people were poisoned. Usually, those who poison to seek revenge only target one or two people and rarely resort to such ruthless means. Second, arsenic is a highly toxic substance and is under control. It is impossible for ordinary people to obtain arsenic, let alone the amount required to poison so many people. Third, the symptoms of poisoning are arsenic. In the natural environment, in addition to arsenic, there are many fungi and bacteria that can produce toxins similar to arsenic."
For example - aflatoxin.
Aflatoxin is a very scary bacteria that contains 58 times more toxins than arsenic.
Arsenic poisoning can still be treated, but aflatoxin poisoning is likely to cause immediate death and cannot be saved. It also has a very high cancer rate. Even if you don't die on the spot, you may die of cancer within a few years.
Moreover, aflatoxin can only be eliminated at high temperatures exceeding 250 degrees. In normal living environments, even high-temperature disinfection cannot kill it.
It is a very scary virus.
"That makes sense... What you said makes sense..." Doctor Zhou nodded repeatedly after listening to Chu Yue's analysis.
At this time, Doctor Zhou completely believed what Doctor Hao said. Chu Yue was indeed a young man with extraordinary medical skills, better than these old men.
He asked, "Doctor Xiao Chu, since the poisoning wasn't intentional, it must have been an accident. In your opinion, how should we investigate this next?"
"Did you guys still keep the food, dishes and chopsticks from the day the accident happened?" Chu Yue asked.
Zhang Weimin hurriedly said, "Yes, they are all here. After the death that day, Doctor Zhou asked me to preserve everything intact and not touch it. I had someone guard it, and no one else has touched it except the people who came to investigate a few times before."
Chu Yue decided, "That's fine, let's go over and take a look."
Zhang Weimin had something else to say. The doctors in the city had investigated twice before, but they couldn't find anything. Could it be that Chu Yue could see it?
Zhao Dahu pushed Zhang Weimin and said, "Clerk, please leave quickly. Don't waste Dr. Xiao Chu's time."
Zhang Weimin hurriedly came back to his senses and led the way.
