Chapter 139 An Unexpected Incident: The Green Family Farm (Part 3)

......

“Lori has to come here.”

Rick brought up the old topic again, looked up with worry in his eyes, and said to Sean, "Sean, she needs to know."

If you can't get away yourself, you'll have to ask your best friend for help.

"Okay, I understand."

Sean nodded, looked at Rick, and said seriously, "I'll handle this, but you need to take care of yours too."

"my business?"

"Your mission is to stay here, for your son's sake."

Sean crouched down to be at Rick's eye level and said seriously, "Even if he survives and no longer needs your blood, I will not allow you to step out of this door."

"Buddy, if you dare try, I'll break your legs. You know what I mean, right?"

By the end, Sean's tone had almost become commanding.

"..."

Rick just looked at him with sad eyes and didn't say anything.

"If something happens to him, why aren't you here..."

Seeing his expression, Sean's heart softened, and his tone became much gentler. He said, "If he doesn't wake up while you're not around, you'll never forgive yourself."

"..."

Rick rested his forehead on his hand, clearly trying hard to suppress his emotions. After a while, he looked up at Sean and said gratefully, "You're right."

"When did I say something wrong?"

Sean forced a smile.

He chuckled briefly, then suddenly said, "You know what? When you're lying in the hospital, you're the last person who should leave..."

“You should have seen what Lori looked like back then, she was like…”

"Her strength...you simply can't imagine."

Sean's thoughts drifted back to two months ago, his eyes filled with emotion. He quickly regained his composure and continued, "Listen, this is what you should be doing right now. I mean... Carl, he needs you right now, so you need to pull yourself together."

"Buddy, got it?"

Sean moved over, put his arm around him, and said earnestly, "You take on this difficult part, and leave the rest to me."

"Okay?"

"it is good."

The two good brothers embraced, their foreheads touching, their eyes locked, and finally reached a consensus.

Click...

Just then, the bedroom door opened, and Hao Sher came out. Everyone quickly stood up.

"He is out of danger for now."

"But I still have to get the remaining bullet fragments out," Hao Sher said to Rick, but there was no hint of relief in his voice.

"How do we retrieve it? You saw how he looked back then."

Rick looked at Hasher,

“I understand, but what we just removed was the shallowest one; we need to go deeper to remove the others.”

Heshel understood Rick's feelings, but to save the child's life, he had to tell them the truth.

"Oh my God."

Rick couldn't bear to look at Carl's pained expression again.

"..."

Haosheer looked at him sympathetically, but had to say, "There's something even more troublesome."

"Go ahead."

Rick looked up, a hint of despair in his eyes.

“His abdomen was swollen and his blood pressure was low, which indicated internal bleeding. There must have been a piece of debris that cut a blood vessel. I had to operate on him to find the bleeding point and then suture it.”

“He cannot move during this process.”

"What I mean is, it must remain completely still."

Hao Sher made no attempt to conceal anything, explaining the difficulty of the surgery and the possible consequences in detail: "If he continues like before, I might cut an artery, and he would die within minutes."

"..."

Rick looked at him, his throat tight, unable to speak.

"I need to put him under anesthesia and into a coma for the surgery."

Haosher didn't give him time to process the information above, but continued, "But if he does that, he won't be able to breathe on his own, and the result will still be just as bad."

"so what should I do now?"

Rick asked quickly.

"You need to find a respirator."

At this moment, Otis walked over, looked at Haosheer, and asked, "Anything else?"

"There are also tubes for connecting to the ventilator, other medical supplies, surgical sheets, and sutures."

Haosheer listed out what he needed one by one.

"..."

Rick suddenly felt a glimmer of hope and asked expectantly, "If I had all of these, could you save him?"

However, Haosheer could not offer him much assurance, only saying, "If all of these are available, I will do my best."

"The nearest hospital caught fire a month ago."

Otis spoke up to remind him, then suddenly thought of another place and said, "They're in high schools."

"That's what I thought too, and an emergency station has been set up there."

Haosheer nodded and said to him, "Everything we need should be there."

"and many more......"

Sean suddenly interrupted their conversation, looking intently at Otis, and asked, "Where is the nearest hospital you mentioned?"

"Uh, it's in town about five miles away."

Otis was puzzled, but answered truthfully nonetheless.

"Five miles..."

Sean mentally estimated the distance and suddenly turned to look at Rick.

But he saw Rick looking at him with the same surprise.

The two looked at each other, and clearly, they both had the same guess in their hearts.

"..."

Seeing their appearance, Hao Sher asked, "Do you know where there?"

“Yesterday, our people went to that small town to look for medicine, but they haven’t returned.”

Rick explained.

"..."

Everyone else felt that things were too coincidental.

At this moment, Sean turned to Otis and asked, "What's the situation like at the emergency station you mentioned?"

"The last time I saw it, the place was already overrun by walkers, and it was impossible to get close. Maybe it's better now."

Otis himself was somewhat unsure.

"I told you, leave the rest of the task to me."

As Sean spoke, seemingly trying to ease the tension, he said in a half-joking tone, "It's too late to take back that now, haha."

"I can't let you go alone."

Rick immediately objected, looking at him with concern.

If Li Ailun and his two companions can't handle the walkers in the town, it will definitely be dangerous for Sean to go alone.

"Alright, neither you nor I know if they've been to that emergency station. Maybe they just found out the hospital burned down and went somewhere further away."

Sean understood Rick's meaning, but he didn't back down, since Rick was the only one who could be of use right now.

"..."

Rick was speechless, but suddenly realized that what he said made sense.

"..."

Seeing that Rick no longer objected, Sean turned to Hershel and said, "Doctor, give me a list and draw a map."

But before Haosheer could speak, Otis suddenly said, "We don't need a map anymore, I'll take you there."

"Otis, no."

Patricia immediately objected loudly, her voice trembling slightly.

"Honey, we don't have time for guessing games."

Otis looked at his wife with a determined expression, as if he had made up his mind, and said, "I have to take responsibility. I won't sit here and watch him go alone."

"..."

Patricia knew she couldn't persuade her husband, so she could only look at him with worry and reluctance in her eyes.

Seeing her like this, Otis softened his tone and comforted her, "I'll be alright."

Are you sure you want to do this?

Sean was somewhat surprised by his decision and asked again to confirm.

Otis didn't answer directly, but turned to look at him and asked, "Do you know what these things he's talking about look like?"

"..."

Upon hearing this, Sean paused for a moment, then said, "Let me think, I really don't know."

“I used to be an emergency room volunteer, I know that.”

As Otis spoke, he looked at them and urged, "We can stay here and discuss this, or we can hurry up and go."

"Then let's go quickly."

Sean nodded to him.

"..."

Rick looked at the man who had accidentally injured his son, his feelings incredibly complicated, but he still said, "I should thank you."

"Let's talk about this after your son is old enough to run around."

Otis, however, could not accept Rick's thanks; he only wanted to do everything he could to make up for the mistakes he had made.

I'm going to get some things.

After saying his last words, he turned around and started preparing his things to leave.

"..."

Maggie watched for a while, and finally waited until they finished talking before going up to Rick and asking, "Where is your wife?"
