Medical center.
Orthopedic Ward.
"……how so?"
The young lieutenant was dumbfounded: "My chief told me that Major Hunter is a very tough guy, how could he..."
"A good swimmer drowns in the water."
Adam pointed to George and said, "If you don't believe me, look at his neck. It was caused by Dr. Hunter who had a PTSD attack. If it was not stopped in time, the consequences would be disastrous."
The young lieutenant looked at George suddenly.
Under Adam's gaze, George can only raise his neck, revealing serious bruises.
"By the way, Dr. Hunter never said that he had a PTSD problem."
Adam reminded.
"I am different from him."
The young lieutenant was silent for a while, his eyes firm again: "My life will be dedicated to the battlefield."
"A soldier who needs an amputation under the knee on the battlefield?"
Adam was surprised.
"There are many of these."
The young lieutenant believes: "The battlefield is our home, and the comrades-in-arms are our family."
"Do you have no family?"
Adam asked, "I mean the real family."
"……I have got."
The young lieutenant said, "Can you realize that even though you have family members, they can't understand you? They don't understand or even don't like you?"
"I can."
George couldn't help but answer: "I have a few brothers like this."
"me too."
The young lieutenant glanced at George: "The brothers who grew up with me have no common language with me, and my brothers on the battlefield are my real family.
Wherever we are, we live and die together.
But here, I can only be alone.
I have tried to integrate into the life here, live the life of an ordinary person, and try to find a job.
But I can't find it.
I have countless dreams in my life, and there are many things I want to do, but they are not here. "
"what you up to?"
Adam asked: "What can't be done here, what can be done on the battlefield, besides killing, say one!"
"……"
The young lieutenant: "We are not killing people... at least we are not killing people for the sake of killing people, we are fighting for our country!"
"Apart from the so-called fighting for the country?"
Adam asked: "Didn't you say that you have countless dreams? Are there many things to do? Anything else? The big things in life are nothing but career and love.
Career is so-called fighting for the country, so many other things must be related to love?
You can’t do it here, but can you be on the battlefield?
Why? "
"No."
The young lieutenant said, "It's not love."
try{mad1(\'gad2\');}catch(ex){} "What is that?"
Adam asked: "It's not always what you said that there are countless dreams to be realized on the battlefield. It's just an exaggerated sentence. In fact, there is only one ‘fight for the country’, right?"
"...Is this not enough?"
The young lieutenant reluctantly said.
"If the cause of the pain on your leg cannot be found, even if it is amputated, there is no guarantee that it will be cured."
Kelly saw that the atmosphere was wrong, and quickly answered the conversation.
"But it is possible!"
The young lieutenant interrupted.
"A prosthetic limb is different from a real leg."
Kelly continued to persuade: "It only feels that it is a five-pound metal, it is still very painful, and what if the army does not want you after your amputation?"
"Will not."
The young lieutenant shook his head.
"Are you saying there is no such possibility?"
Kelly interrupted: "Are you willing to take a risk for this? You are asking for your leg to be removed for you!"
"Do you think I don't know?"
The young lieutenant said irritably, "Do you think I have to cut off my legs? No! I'm in **** now, don't waste time to scare me, you can't scare me!
After so much suffering, I am fearless!
I just ask, can you do surgery on me? "
Kelly couldn't help but look at Adam.
"Sorry, we won't cut off your healthy legs just because you want to, until the cause is determined."
Adam shook his head: "If you are sure that you will not accept our further examination, then you can go to other hospitals to see, or go directly to the hospital directly under the military, I believe there will be enough help for you.
left after speaking.
He is not used to each other.
This lieutenant is only 9 years old. Every 2 years old in the American drama world, he is not a complete adult, and he can't even drink alcohol.
On an impulse, I want to cut my leg.
regret it afterwards?
That's just a chicken feather.
In fact, if he is not afraid of trouble, he is willing to help each other.
E.
has no other meaning, it is purely psychological and academic research, to see if the other party will regret it in the future.
Very professional.
Pure academic.
That's it.
"Doctor Duncan!"
The young lieutenant called Adam aloud, with a sincere and excited expression, just like the male protagonist in the island nation’s hot-blooded comics before he started his mouth cannon.
"I know you are doing your work."
This is not the first time he has been rejected. Normal doctors in normal hospitals are unwilling to help him self-harm. He has run enough. He can only suppress the irritability in his heart and want to impress Adam and the others by emotion.
"Your job is to reunite people safely, not to separate them, I understand.
try{mad1(\'gad2\');}catch(ex){} I also understand that even if I go back, I will only hurt others. It doesn’t make any sense to you..."
"Very good."
Adam nodded and left directly.
"……"
The young lieutenant looked at Adam who had already gone out. After a delay, he shouted again: "Dr. Duncan!!!"
"Is there anything else?"
Adam can only turn his head and continue to look at him: "Didn't you say you can understand? You also know that you will only hurt others when you go back. This kind of behavior really doesn't make any sense to us."
"We are indeed hurting others, but we are also protecting more people."
The young lieutenant was very annoyed by Adam’s disobedience: “If someone tells you that you can’t practice medicine, wouldn’t you do everything possible to become a doctor again?”
"That's different."
Adam shook his head and said, "Didn't you say everything, our doctor is to let people reunite safely, and you are just hurting others."
"You do not understand!"
called the young lieutenant.
"You don't understand."
Adam interrupted: "Listen to what you saidYou also know that you are hurting others, and the reason why you would rather amputate your healthy leg is to go to the battlefield.
It's not because you really believe in fighting for your country, real brothers and real family.
But because you have nothing to do with killing.
In a peaceful place, you can't even find a job, and you can't integrate into a normal person's life at all.
This is the fundamental reason why you desperately want to go back.
Guess who else has these problems?
Those retired veterans!
Guess what common disease they have?
PTSD! "
"...Even if you are right, what else can you do besides going back?"
The young lieutenant said painfully: "Here, I have nothing."
"Cure the disease first, then slowly blend in."
Adam looked at him: "You are only 9 years old and your life has just begun. As long as you are willing to blend in, as long as you don't pursue unrealistic goals, what can't you blend in?"
"That's too difficult..."
The young lieutenant's eyes struggled, and then became firm: "I would rather return to the battlefield."
"But the war will come to an end."
Kelly couldn't help but answer: "If you just had your limbs amputated, the war will be over..."
"Do not."
The young lieutenant smiled: "Have you never studied history? We have been fighting for more than two hundred years since the founding of the country, and we have never stopped.
Do you think it will end now?
will end in the future? "
Kelly: "……"
