Chapter 145

That stab has practically pierced half of his heart from the back. Dwayne is right. An ordinary surgeon probably wouldn't even dare to pull out the dagger and could only watch him die.

Bailey hissed as her bony fingers pressed around his wound. “We can't pull out this dagger, at least not here. If we want him to live, we must perform surgery on him, first to cut him open, stitch up the heart before pulling out the dagger.”

Upon hearing that, Dwayne questioned in a deep voice, “But can he survive until we return to the city? The blood is flowing non-stop. I'm worried that he will die of shock due to excessive blood loss on the way.”

Bailey did not answer him, merely shoving a blood-stained palm into her pocket before taking out a medicine bottle.

She had been operating on animals for the past few days and had taken to carrying a hemostatic medicine around with her, which would help to resolve her current crisis.

“This is a hemostatic medicine I developed myself. It is several times better than the ones on the market. It should be able to stop his bleeding. You should quickly contact a helicopter and get them to come over. Let's go to Justin's medical base.”

With that, she unscrewed the cap and began to pour the medicine on Artemis' wound.

Dwayne slapped his forehead. “Oh, right! Why didn't I think of calling a helicopter here? A car ride is bumpy, but a helicopter ride is not bumpy at all! Okay, leave it to me.”

Bailey's medicine was indeed effective, for the wound stopped bleeding after a while.

Artemis forced himself to stay strong and did not let himself pass out. He said in a hoarse voice, “Operate on me when we get back.”

Bailey pursed her lips, and when she looked at him, she appeared conflicted.

She had a feeling that something was off, but she could not pinpoint what exactly it was.

“Let Justin take a look first. If he can operate on you, then let him do it. I can't treat your life lightly. You should know that despite locking myself in the laboratory for the past six days, I didn't make any progress or breakthroughs at all. I even became more reluctant to perform surgery. It's way too risky for me to perform a heart suture on you, and there are also many uncertainties.”

Artemis furrowed his brows and was about to say something to refute her, but Bailey did not let him speak and covered his mouth with her blood-stained palm.
