Chapter 2100: Glory
Thinking of Xia Jinyuan’s usual performance, the major general’s expression turned exceptionally solemn. At this moment, there was a knock on the door. The guard had already arrived with the military doctor.
“Come in!” The major general who did not pursue Xia Jinyuan for his words immediately raised his voice. When the military doctor came in, he pointed at Xia Jinyuan and said anxiously, “Military Doctor, quickly take a look at him.”
V8, who helped Xia Jinyuan sit down, whispered, “Captain, you’re as bold as ever. You made Major General’s mood fluctuate with just a few words. You’re amazing.”
“You flatter me.” Xia Jinyuan’s thin lips curled up slightly. While the major general was instructing the military doctor, he lowered his voice and said, “Brother, I implicated you just now. Find an excuse to leave first. Don’t stay here anymore.”
V8’s arm stiffened, then his voice trembled. “Brother, is the injury on your waist very serious?”
“It’s a little serious and slightly inflamed.” Xia Jinyuan told his comrade honestly and comforted him with pity in his eyes. “That’s why I’m reminding you to find an excuse to retreat first. That way, Major General won’t be angry with you.”
“Then I must thank you for your warning!” V8 gritted his teeth as he helped his comrade to sit down. He said to the major general, “Major General, I have some matters to attend to. May I be excused?”
Without hesitation, the major general waved his hand in agreement. Without a second’s pause, V8 strode away.
Soon, the military doctor removed the bloodstained gauze. When the major general, who was still slightly angry, saw the injury on Xia Jinyuan’s waist, the last trace of anger in his heart was instantly extinguished by the bloody puncture wound.
It was a very serious penetrating wound. It went straight through the side of the waist and came out from the back. Although the wound had been stitched up, there were signs of inflammation around it. It was red and swollen and still looked terrifying.
The military doctor picked up a small medical flashlight and shone it on the wound. As he examined it with a mask on, he said in a low voice, “There are signs of inflammation in the wound. We can’t rule out the suppuration inside. To be safe, we’ll remove the stitches again.” The doctor pressed the area around the wound with his sterile gloves and took a closer look. The military doctor looked up and asked Xia Jinyuan in surprise, “Did you sew this yourself?”
Although it was handled properly, the stitches were sloppy and there was a pull on it. It was obvious that he had sutured it himself. Moreover, the suturing speed was very fast and the job was not handled well.
Xia Jinyuan nodded and said, “Help me treat the surrounding area first. We’ll talk about it when the stitches are removed.”
“Do you want to be carried straight to the hospital by the guards?” The major general glanced at him coldly and asked the military doctor how badly inflamed his wound was.
Compared to the military doctor’s surprise, the major general was much calmer. If the special forces soldiers of the Xueyu unit were injured during combat, they could treat their own wounds without any comrades by their side.
His concern was whether the wound was seriously inflamed.
“It doesn’t look serious from the outside for the time being, but a gunshot wound is different from other injuries, especially a penetrating wound. Sometimes, it looks fine on the outside, but it might be suppurating inside.” The military doctor admired the soldier in front of him who dared to stitch his own wound. He took off his gloves and answered the major general’s question with a serious expression. “I suggest we go to the hospital and see if there’s any inflammation inside the wound.”
Xia Jinyuan knew that he wouldn’t be able to escape from the hospital tonight. He asked the military doctor to treat his illness first. He said to the major general, “There’s no need to trouble the guards. I’ll go to the hospital immediately after reporting to you.”
