Physician’s Odyssey

Almost half an hour later, Hugo's assistant walked into the room with a checklist sweating profusely, his complexion very ugly.

Hugo sank inwardly, realizing that the results might not be great.

Hugo took the inspection sheet and glanced at it, and said angrily: "How could this be? How could this drug really have ephedrine-like alkaloids? Are there problems with the drugs introduced this time?"

Albert finally spoke up and said angrily: “It’s because we trust you so much and spend a lot of money every year to help you update equipment and build research rooms. I didn’t expect you to repay us that way! I only feel that my spine is chilly now. It’s not that Su Tao discovered the problem. Will you try to attack the rest of us in the future?"

The nature of this matter is more serious than imagined. I found out drug-like ingredients from the medicine given to Princess Emilia. Isn't it possible that the entire royal family may be infected with drugs?The Royal Hospital is an institution that provides medical treatment to members of the royal family. Unexpectedly, it has become a source of drug exports. This is a scandal that shocked the world.

Hugo's face was pale, with sweat beads on his forehead, and the aggressive attitude towards Su Tao just now was completely gone. Instead, he was panic and self-blame.

With such a problem, the Royal Hospital is facing a new cleansing, and he must become a scapegoat. What he blames is that he has always cared for and treated the royal family members as his own relatives, but he did not expect to get them addicted to drugs.

Albert took a deep breath and said, "Expert Su, from now on, I entrust you to treat my sister Emilia, and now I can only trust you."

Su Tao saw that Hugo was sluggish and desperate, but he believed that Hugo should not be aware of the problem with the medicine.

Su Tao said to the translator: "Please tell Prince Albert that I will try to cure Emilia, but also ask him not to blame the Royal Hospital. After all, this matter may involve some unknown reasons, but I can With the guarantee of personality, the Royal Hospital will not do such a bad thing."

Hugo was even more ashamed to see Su Tao helping himself at this moment.His eyes lit up suddenly, "Alden must have played a trick. He looked for a chance to change the pill."

Su Tao reminded: "You can check the inventory of the pharmacy. If there is no ephedrine*like ingredient, it means that it has nothing to do with the hospital. It is the gastroenterologist who moved his hands and feet. In addition, the medicine has only been taken for a short time after all. In the later stage, the patient continues to use drugs, so it is necessary to check other sources of possible intake of ephedrine. Not surprisingly, that thing is hidden in a corner of this room."

Albert looked at Su Tao in disbelief, "Who has the courage to hide things in Emilia's bedroom?"

Su Tao said solemnly: "The most dangerous place is also the safest place. Only if you hide here, you will never be found."

Albert knew that there was an insider in the royal house, who might be from the same group. He hesitated for a moment and gave instructions: "Arrange for someone to search the room, including any place, without blind spots. In addition, the maid who can enter the room All the attendants gathered and arranged for strict interrogation."

In order to avoid disturbing the sleepy Emilia, Albert ordered her to move her to another room.

Half an hour later, a message came from the Royal Hospital. The rest of the same drugs were sampled. No ephedrine-like ingredients were found. Then, a hidden compartment was found in Emilia’s room against the wall. Hidden a bag of gray powdery items.

Sending it to Su Tao, Su Tao dipped his fingers a little, put it on the tip of his tongue, and frowned, and said in a deep voice, "Yes, this is the dried powder of Carter leaves."

Although Katye is not known for marijuana and poppy, it is also a harmful plant.The Carter tree is native to the mountainous areas of Ethiopia. After it was introduced to Yemen, it caused great harm to the people of the whole country.

Farmers in Yemen spend half of their income chewing Carter. Politicians chew Carter for entertainment. Fresh Carter leaves are chewed repeatedly in their mouths. The juice will turn from bitter to sweet. The rich ephedrine*flavonoids can stimulate people. The brain makes people feel euphoric.Over time, chewing Carter will become addictive.

Most countries in the world believe that Carter leaves contain mildly narcotic substances and regard them as narcotics. Chewing Carter is also considered illegal.

Seeing things gradually become clear, Hugo can be regarded as a long sigh of relief, there is not much connection with the Royal Hospital.His views on Su Tao were also twists and turns. At first he doubted his ability and gradually recognized his level. Now he is grateful to him for clearing his grievances from the Royal Hospital.

Albert felt that his whole body was soft. Although he didn't know anything about medicine, he had obviously heard of this infamous plant and said angrily: "Immediately investigate how this thing appeared in the princess room. Find him out for me, even if he hides in the mouse hole, you still have to get this bitch out for me!"

Albert, who has always been very well-trained, even swears, which fully shows how angry he is.

Albert's complexion turned red and white, and suddenly he covered his heart with a painful expression on his face. Su Tao hurriedly stepped forward and squeezed his human acupuncture with his fingers. Albert let out a long sigh of relief. Come on.

Albert is anxious, if Emilia is a normal disease, there is a chance to cure it, but Emilia is now addicted to drugs.

Albert still has this common sense, but the relapse rate of people who contract drugs is very high, which means that Emilia may be destroyed like this in her life.

"Don't worry, you have to sort out this matter slowly. Although Emilia is already addicted to drugs, the dosage is relatively small, so the degree is relatively mild. If treated, there is still a chance to return to normal." Su Tao patiently persuaded.

"Really?" Albert finished listening to the translation, holding Su Tao's hand excitedly, and begged: "Please heal Emilia."

Su Tao continued to appease: "She does have drug addiction, but the degree is very light, and she has not fully shown it yet. However, it can be judged by the current situation that the people behind this are so invisible. She has a special status, and after half a year, someone continues to give her medicine. It must be the person closest to her, or herself."

"How is it possible?" Albert shook his head in surprise. "Do you think it was Emilia taking drugs herself?"

Su Tao sighed: "I just reminded you that Emilia's psychological problem is very serious and it is possible to do anything."

At this time, someone walked into the door, Albert's most trusted entourage, and he reached into Albert's ear and whispered a few words.

With a complicated expression on Albert's face, he ordered in a deep voice, "Send her to the relevant department for interrogation."

After the entourage left, Albert thought for a while and told Su Tao the situation. After all, this incident was inextricably linked to Su Tao's previous arrest.He smiled bitterly: "The rape lurking in the royal family has been found out, but she only admitted that she had entered the royal family with a pistol and tried to frame Su Tao, but she refused to admit that she had poisoned Emilia."

This can be regarded as a mistake, and he has found the rape in collusion with Salman.

But the matter is still not completely clear. Why does the medicinal medicine for treating diarrhea contain ephedrine-like ingredients? Why is Carter leaf powder found in Emilia's room? Everything is still mystery.

Albert hesitated, and finally asked, "Can Emilia's drug addiction be treated?" He didn't dare to face this question because he knew how terrible the drug addiction was.

"Don't worry, I can assure you that your sister will recover, but it may take a long time, but as long as she persists, she will become as healthy as before." Su Tao paused and said in a deep voice. "But I hope you can tell me the truth, whether Emilia has suffered a severe emotional shock."

"Well, I want to talk to you alone about this." Albert looked at Kiko, "You can translate for us. When it comes to Emilia's reputation, I think the less people know the better it is good."

Walking into a not-so-large room, Albert's eyes were filled with sadness, "This involves the secret of our royal family. I would never tell anyone if it wasn't for the purpose of curing Emilia. It was half a year ago. Before, my parents decided to marry Emilia to a prince from a certain country in the Middle East. Although we don’t pay attention to political marriage now, we must pay attention to the right people like us princes or princesses. Emilia is a girl with an opinion. She expressed resistance at the time, but was severely criticized by my parents. Later, to relax her mood, she went to Africa. After returning, she gradually became wrong. If you think the psychological changes are the cause of her illness, then this It is the only reasonable explanation."

Su Tao sighed softly and analyzed: "She wanted to retaliate for the decision of her parents, so she tortured herself and retaliated against her parents by self-harm. At first she asked the gastroenterologist to mix Katye powder into the pill for diarrhea. , Maybe I just think the amount is not large and want to try the effect. But after the diarrhea was cured, she was already addicted to drugs, and then secretly took Katye powder."

Although Albert didn't want to believe this fact, he couldn't help but nodded and said: "When you find Dr. Alden and ask the whole story, I believe that there will be a final result."

The gastroenterologist Alden was in London, and he soon came to the palace after receiving a call from the royal family.

In the face of the evidence, he confessed and said helplessly: "This is what the princess forced me to do. She threatened me that if I did not follow her instructions, he would destroy my hospital. I thought she was at the time. My mental state is not right, but I want to protect my property, thinking that it's just a pill for her, so I just did it."

Alden's face was filled with distress, and Emilia must have grasped his intractable handle.

Albert did not forgive Alden, and said angrily: "You lack the basic qualities of being a doctor. Clean up your property as soon as possible, and then quit the doctor business. Your inferior character is not worthy of this sacred profession. ."

Albert asked Alden to be taken away, and then called Gwendolyn, Emilia's personal maid, in.

Before Albert could speak, Gwendolyn fell to her knees and said with tears: "Sorry, Your Royal Highness, I have concealed the truth of the matter. Emilia has been secretly taking Katye. I have been Secretly helping her, because every time she needs Katye, it is very painful. I really cannot bear it..."

Albert knew that Gwendolyn and Emilia had a close relationship and were loyal to Emilia, and he definitely did not intend to hurt Emilia.

Albert sighed heavily, and said solemnly: "You are not helping her, you are harming her!"
