episode 37: critical condition

"Where's your house?" Su Luxie asked when faced with the choice of two houses that looked very simple in front of her.

"On the left, it's my house and my mother." The little man replied pointing to the housing on their left.

Su Luxie and Merlyn looked at each other. It was as if they were feeling sorry for each other in their hearts

"Well, take me to your mother." Said Su Luxie.

After hearing that Su Luxie wanted to see her mother, the little man immediately brought Su Luxie into his humble residence.

Su Luxie and Merlyn set foot inside the building. Their eyes could clearly see a scene of a shabby yet clean and well-groomed room.

The house was filled with only potluck furniture.

Su Luxie frowned, she was confused who had cleaned this room every day?

"I heard that the mother of this child is sick, but..." His mind continued to sweep through the entire room with its bright blue netra.

"Have it, I don't need to think about this trivial thing." Next membenak.

In the end they started to enter the room that the little man had just entered.

Still with the same view, a clean room with potluck furniture.

As Su Luxie began to stare at one point, suddenly her eyes instantly enlarged with a body that was replexed back one step.

"Ba, how can this be..." He still could not believe what he had seen.

"Yes, she's my mother." Said the little man while lamenting his mother's body which was stretched sluggish on a shabby mattress.

Looked a thin, dry woman with pale skin, her stomach is very big like a person who is pregnant with 3 babies at once.

Su Luxie and Merlyn swallowed their saliva. They could not imagine how much pain the woman was in.

"Merlyn, we need to take swift action. Prepare all my surgical equipment." Su Luxie told Merlyn to prepare all her medical equipment.

"All right, miss." Replied Merlyn who was directly carrying out the orders of Su Luxie.

"Are you a doctor?" Asked the little man with a moved look.

Su Luxie nodded, she stroked the little man's cheek while saying

"Can you wait outside? I don't think you'll be strong enough to see it." Said Su Luxie softly.

The little man's eyes twinkled, he nodded with his disheveled face.

Without saying much, the little man immediately walked out of the room. He knew he wouldn't be strong enough to see it all.

Su Luxie who had realized that the little man had actually come out finally immediately ran the action.

He put both white gloves in his hands and then began to put on a mask and also a head covering. With eyes always fixed on the woman's stomach, Su Luxie began to make a moment

"It is estimated that he has been experiencing this pain for 5 months. Her hull and heart had a disability so it swelled like this. His stomach is turning blue, it's thought there's a lot of pus in it."

"Hey, even they can wait this far? Really sliced!" Benak Su Luxie coiled.

"Merlyn, little knife." The Pinta Su Luxie.

Merlyn nodded, swiftly taking out a small blade that looked so sharp. He gave the little knife to Su Luxie.

"Little cloth and clamp." The request was again on Merlyn.

His expression had already begun, the situation became silent. Even from the outside only Su Luxie's voice continued to ask Merlyn for something.

While the little man was leaning against the wooden wall of his house. My eyes continued to stare at the floor that had been eaten by termites.

Her ears always heard the voice of Su Luxie who was examining the mother. Not knowing why, the little man who seemed to be always happy and smiling earlier, now stood up with a very deep sad expression.

From his expression it was seen that he had experienced a lot of pain and also sadness. She couldn't even cry even if she wanted to.

"Can he cure my mother?" He muttered with a trembling voice.

While Su Luxie was busy taking care of the sick woman, precisely on the academic side, Su An'yang and Su Tiao were confused by not seeing Su Luxie when they returned to the greenhouse.

They even went around many times to look for the whereabouts of Su Luxie.

"Where's sister? He didn't even tell us where he was going." Su Tiao Protest.

Teacher Lim is confused. He had also gotten used to the attitude of Su Luxie who liked to disappear suddenly. He could only sigh and then talk

"Maybe the lady has some business outside, we better get inside." Invite him to Su An'yang and Su Tiao to be able to squeeze inside.

"really. Looks like Luxie has some urgent business. Tiao, we better get some rest, yeah." Su An'yang.

Su Tiao simply nodded with his sour expression "No wonder! He always disappeared suddenly at a time like this! Huh sister, you're a bitch."

They finally decided to enter the building for a break after their long journey.

It does not escape the sight of 2 pairs of eyes from a building that is high among the buildings that are quite low in size.

A squeaking look came from a dashing man with his always flat facial expression. The man looked very handsome even though he was in the dark.

"They are the Su family. They traveled to apply to this academy." Said a man wearing a veil on his face. Not to forget a large sword that always perched on his shoulders.

Well, the man was a private principal belonging to the crown prince. The crown prince was standing facing the glass window so the view out there could be seen very clearly.

The crown prince could only nod without answering a word.

"Curtain! The Su Family who is about to go bankrupt?! They could even still laugh out there without knowing what calamity would strike them!" The crown prince's mind smiled cynically at the two Su people who were laughing out there.

...****************...

On the other hand, still in the woman's room, Su Luxie and Merlyn were still preoccupied with the examination and treatment of the disease that had long been suffered by the mother of the little man.

Sweat always soaked Su Luxie's forehead. His hands were even covered in blood and pus droppings that he had just removed from the intestines that were already infected by bacteria.

He was about to remove the piece of intestine that he had cut off, and then start binding and sewing the remaining part of the intestine.

He did that very carefully and thoroughly.

"Miss, you don't even feel scared when you're splitting someone's stomach?!" Merlyn's mind was always showing an expression of his conscience.

"!"

Su Luxie suddenly became riled up. He looked right and left.

"He has lost a lot of blood. We have to act fast" Su Luxie said, staring quickly at Merlyn who was also confused by the matter.

"There's no time to wait." Su Luxie then urged Merlyn to immediately move somewhere that could get something she asked for.
