Chapter 998

When we left the Kremlin, in order to be safe, bezikov turned out the driver and drove me and krochkov to the hospital.

It's funny to say that the three of us in the car, originally krochkov was our enemy, but now he became my friend. And bzikov has always been bitter about krochkov because we were almost shot last time. This can be guessed from the way he glares at krochkov in the back seat through the rearview mirror from time to time. However, krochkov only gave a faint smile in return for this provocative action of bezikov.

I didn't pay attention to the secret contest between them. Instead, I thought about it on my own. Today's award ceremony really brought me a lot of benefits. In addition to meeting such a big man as Ustinov, I also completely resolved my grudge with krochkov.

During the Moscow defense war, I had a chance to make a rapid progress because I was appreciated by Zhukov and rokosovsky and made a little contribution. However, officers who are too conspicuous and climb too fast are far less mature and stable than those who have worked in the army for more than 10 to 20 years and have been promoted step by step. They lack experience of experience. If they encounter setbacks, they may perform badly.

After he was demoted, he was first sent to Leningrad, and then to Stalingrad. Although he nearly lost his life several times, he had rich combat experience, accumulated a lot of contacts, and even had an army that could be completely controlled by himself. He didn't need to wipe it where he needed it.

I was just thinking about it when the car was parked in the yard of a hospital. Krochkov asked the driver in a sarcastic tone, "Comrade Colonel, here we are. Would you like to get out of the car and go in with us, or stay in the car and wait? "

After listening to what krochkov said, bzikov looked back at him with an angry look on his face. Then he bit his back teeth and said, "of course we went in together. How can I know if you're going to do anything more?"

After krochkov listened, he turned to me and said, "o'shanina, let's get out of the car." With that, he pushed open the door on his side and jumped out of the car.

Instead of immediately following krochkov out of the car, I politely said to bzikov, "Comrade Colonel, please find a place to park, and then we'll go in together." With that, I pushed the door open and got out of the car.

Krochkov, who was standing at the door of the outpatient hall, waited for me to come up to him. He took a look at the car that was driving towards him. Then he asked in a low voice, "o'shanina, will Colonel bzikov come in with us?"

I nodded and politely said to him, "yes, comrade krochkov, Captain, now stop the car and come in with us later."

We both stood at the door waiting for a short time, and bzikov, who had parked the car, came in a hurry. He came up to us, shook his head at me and said in a loud voice, "come on, Rita, let's go in and find the doctor."

Seeing that bzikov finished saying this, he walked into the outpatient building without looking back. Krochkov laughed helplessly and said to me, "this bzikov is still angry with me. O'shanina, let's go. Let's go to the doctor. "

In Soviet hospitals, there was no need to register, just wait outside the doctor's clinic. The three of us came to the outpatient clinic of the Department of facial features. There were many people standing on the corridor outside, at least 30 people. I calculated in my mind that even if the doctor sees a patient in five minutes, it will be at least two hours before my turn.

Seeing this situation, I could not help but beat the drum of retreat. I gently pulled lacrochkov's sleeve and said to him in a low voice, "Comrade krochkov, there are too many people today. Can we come back another day?"

Krochkov looked at me and said strangely, "tomorrow? Why wait until tomorrow? "

I pointed to the long line outside the clinic and said helplessly, "you see, there are so many people outside. When it's my turn, I don't know how long I'll have to wait."

To understand what I was worried about, there was a smile on krochkov's face. He said with disapproval, "o'shanina, you are worried too much. If you're going to see a doctor, you don't have to wait that long. "

After hearing what he said, bzikov turned his head and rolled his eyes at him. He said angrily, "Damn it, you want to abuse his power again."

Krochkov didn't care about bezikov's sarcasm. He walked quickly to the front of the line, took out a dark red certificate from his coat pocket, raised it high above his head, and said loudly to the patients in line: "citizens, I'm from the interior department. There's a commander who just came back from the front line to see a doctor. Because her time is very precious, please wait a little while and let her see a doctor first." Then, without waiting for any reaction from the patients, he waved to me, "o'shanina, come here."

He used his authority to go through the back door, which made me feel embarrassed. I passed the long waiting line with a red face and came to krochkov's side.

Krochkov pushed open the door of the clinic, shook his head at me and said, "o'shanina, go in." I nodded, forced my way into the clinic, and krochkov followed. After he came in, he turned to stop bzikov, who wanted to follow him. "Well, comrade Colonel, there are not many people in the clinic. You'd better stay outside and wait." Then he closed the door.

The doctor in the outpatient room was guiding the nurse to deal with an ear injured patient. When he saw an unexpected guest break in, he looked back at us and said discontentedly, "what's the matter with you?"

Krochkov was not in the least irritated by the doctor's reproach, but said to him with a smile, "Dear Sergey, don't you know me?"

The doctor, known as Sergey, squinted at krochkov for a while, and then suddenly a smile appeared on his face. He immediately welcomed him with open arms, and said happily, "krochkov, it's you. It's a pleasure to see you still alive. "

They hugged each other and separated. Sergey asked warmly, "krochkov, you busy man, how can you come to me today?"

Krochkov pointed to me and said, "well, comrade Sergei, I'm here with the commander who just came back from the front line. There seems to be something wrong with her eyes. I want you to have a good examination for her. " Perhaps in order to attract the other party's attention, he also specially stressed that "she just attended the ceremony of conferring honor and won the title of" Soviet hero "at the ceremony."

The effect of krochkov's introduction was immediate. Sergey immediately respected me. He asked respectfully, "Comrade commander, what's wrong with your eyes and what's the symptom?"

Sergey frowned as I explained the symptoms in detail. Seeing his expression, I had a bad feeling in my heart: "doctor, is the condition of my eyes very bad?"

Sergey was silent for a moment and said, "according to the symptoms you said, it may be retinal detachment. However, in order to avoid misdiagnosis, I want to check your mydriasis first. We will be able to find out what the specific situation is after the inspection. " With that, he told the nurse who had just treated the wound for the patient to come and drop eye drops for me to treat mydriasis.

I was lying on the bed covered with curtains, waiting for the nurse to give me mydriasis, when I heard krochkov outside asking the doctor, "Sergey, is the retina falling off seriously?"

"Damn, comrade krochkov, don't you even have this common sense?" Sergey may have heard krochkov ask how low-level questions, some dissatisfied words said: "the retina is like a photographic film in a camera, dedicated to photographic imaging. When we look at something, the image of the object falls on the retina through the refractive system. Once the retina completely falls off, it can lead to blindness

I shivered when I heard that I might be blind. If it wasn't for the nurse who was giving me eye drops at this time, I would have rushed out to see Dr. Sergey.

After a moment's silence, krochkov asked, "if it's retinal detachment, is there any way to prevent blindness?"

When I heard krochkov ask me what I was concerned about, I lay on the bed with my ears on my side, listening carefully to the conversation outside. Just listen to Sergei said: "of course, it's surgery. After the operation, although her vision can not be restored to the original level, it can avoid blindness in her left eye and affect the vision of her right eye. "

After hearing this, krochkov took a cool breath and said, "this matter has too much to do with. I want to report it to my superiors immediately."

"Wait a minute, krochkov." Sergei immediately stopped him and said, "don't report to the higher authorities first. At present, the condition of the female commander is only my judgment based on my past experience, which is not necessarily accurate. As for the condition, we have to wait for mydriasis examination before we can confirm it. "

"When can the inspection be carried out?" Asked krochkov.

"Thirty minutes at the most." After answering this sentence, Sergey said to krochkov tactfully, "anyway, it's still early. Do you think you should go outside first and wait for a while. During this time, I can see a few more patients."

"Well, I'll talk to the female commander first." When krochkov finished, he went to my bed, chatted about the curtain, and said to me, "o'shanina, Dr. Sergey will examine you in half an hour. In order not to affect his work, I'll wait outside first. "

To the polite krochkov, I said with a smile, "OK, you go."

Krochkov nodded, lowered the curtain, said hello to Sergei, opened the door and went out. Not long after he went out, the door rang again. Someone came in from the outside. From the conversation between the other party and the doctor, I recognized that it was a patient. When I heard that a patient came in, the nurse and I said hello and went out to receive the patient.

I heard that five or six patients entered the outpatient department in front of me. After listening patiently to the patients, Sergey sent them away in a few words, while others asked the nurses to deal with the injury and then opened a pharmacy to let the patients go to the nearby pharmacy to buy medicine.

Just when I was impatient, I heard Sergei's voice from outside: "Comrade commander, please come out for inspection." As soon as Sergey's voice fell, the nurse came over, pulled the curtain, helped me out of the bed, helped me to a chair against the wall, and turned on an incandescent lamp on my head. Sergey stood in front of me, leaned down, opened my eyelids, carefully observed my eyes with a magnifying glass with a condenser, and from time to time told me to look up, down, left and right in different directions. After looking at it for a long time, he stood up straight, sighed, glanced at my epaulets, and then asked, "Comrade General, have you been hit on the head recently?"“ Whack? " I repeated this word. I went through my experience in my mind like a movie, and found that I didn't seem to have encountered any severe blow to the head. Just as I was about to shake my head to deny it, I suddenly thought that outside the town, when I met Vassily, he accidentally stepped on a mine, and the blast blew me away. When I landed, my head hit the stone heavily. Fortunately, I wore a helmet, otherwise I might have been honored at that time. Thinking of this, I quickly told Sergei about it. After that, I asked uneasily, "don't worry about my eyes, doctor." Sergey replied solemnly: "Comrade General, it is precisely because of such a heavy blow that your retina appears the precursor of detachment. Because you have not been treated in time, it will fall off now." Sergey's words made me even more frightened. I asked with a flustered look: "doctor, will I be blind then?" Hearing my worry, Sergey thought for a moment and replied, "if the operation had been carried out in time, it would not have been possible."“ When can I have an operation? " I asked quickly“ Although it has been confirmed that it is retinal detachment, it still needs to be observed for another two days before surgery can be performed. " When Sergey finished these two sentences, he went back to the desk, picked up his pen and began to write the case. As he wrote, he said, "Comrade General, the inpatient department is behind the outpatient department. Later, you can take me to write the case for you and go to the doctor on duty. He will arrange the ward for you."
