529. Cause of death

Generally speaking, animals that feed on blood must ensure two o'clock when eating.

First, try to hide yourself.

In order to ensure the success of long-term eating, the prey naturally cannot find that it is in a bleeding state. Therefore, they use anesthetics first, try to block the pain that pierces the skin, prolong the time for eating, and prevent being discovered by prey.

The other is to keep the blood in a liquid state and not solidify.

Blood is an important resource for the body to survive. After a wound appears, the body must have a corresponding blocking mechanism to prevent blood loss, that is, coagulation. In order to absorb enough blood, these blood-sucking animals need some countermeasures - anticoagulation.

Most blood-sucking animals can do these two things well, such as mosquitoes, lice, ticks, cows, vampire bats, etc.

Even like schistosomiae, they simply parasitize into the human body, directly avoiding so much trouble. They are like children who fantasize about living in candy houses or chocolate houses, combining food and accommodation into one.

But none of these troublesome guys know what sustainable development is like leeches.

Perhaps because of living in water, these squirming insects are very clear that the wounds are very likely to be infected when exposed to water. So when enjoying the delicious meal in front of them, they will use antibacterial ingredients in saliva to ensure the cleanliness of these wounds. (1)

With these methods, medical leeches that have been artificially bred without any foreign microorganisms have become an important helper for absorbing blood stasis in microsurgery.

It’s just that because of the natural sense of fear, it still takes some courage to accept them.

"Come on, let's leave this to you." Qi Jing was not going to care about Xia Wei's reaction, and put the glass bottle in her hand directly into her arms. "I greeted Director Liu. He thought it was very interesting and he agreed."

"Ha? How could the boss listen to you..."

Xia Wei originally thought it was strange. Even if Qi Jing was the son of the dean and even if he was a rookie in the medical field in Danyang in recent years, Liu Yuhai had been the director for more than ten years. How could he agree to such a messy treatment plan because of these two identities?

But when she looked at the policeman behind her, she suddenly understood the purpose of her boss.

This is a policeman who was injured on duty. It is very painful to watch it necrotic after his ears are broken. If the ears can be saved now, the ENT department of Danyang Hospital will be able to grow a face.

After entering the new century, medical methods are changing with each passing day, and every department is in a competitive era where it will be eliminated if it does not make progress.

Otolaryngology, which looks marginal, naturally hopes to become bigger and stronger.

Ear separation and replantation is a serious interdisciplinary problem, accounting for three major departments: microsurgery, cosmetic surgery and otolaryngology. The otolaryngology basically has no natural advantage in this competition.

Danyang Hospital does not have a plastic surgery department, but the hand and foot surgery department is not bad. Even if several middle-aged and young doctors in the otolaryngology have passed the surgical ability, they will fail to replant due to the blood supply of the ears themselves.

At this point, it is much more beneficial to specialize in microscopic extrapolation of the broken limb replantation.

When the success rate is not as good as others, the ENT department can only take the cake away with his eyes open. This is not the domineering microsurgery, but the patient's natural choice under the success rate of surgery.

Although this cake is not big, Liu Yuhai has always been worried.

After working as the director for so many years, he often goes to and from top medical events at home and abroad. He can see the progress in otolaryngology surgery at the first time, and naturally can smell the development prospects of his department at the first time.

The ear, nose and throat seem to be edges, but in fact they cover all aspects such as body surface organs, internal lumen, surrounding muscle connective tissue, cartilage and bones, nerve conduction, blood supply and transportation.

If you don’t grasp the emerging surgical treatment methods now, these cakes will be snatched away by neurosurgery, vascular surgery, and orthopedics like ear replantation.

When you arrive at Liu Yuhai's position, you are considering not only personal strength.

A few years ago, with the new wave of foreign department classification and the introduction of talents, he had already tasted the sweetness when he merged with head and neck surgery.

Now a plate of meal that is about to be cooked is placed in front of you. Just take two spoons and you can put it in the plate. Then you can also count at least half of the credit on your own department. He naturally would not object to this kind of good thing and accepted Qi Jing's proposal very readily.

After the software and hardware meet the standards of medical care, as long as there are successful treatment examples, it can rely on it to attract the source of the disease. With the source of the disease, the department can enter the track of healthy development.

Xia Wei is still in the stage of improving her own level, so she naturally does not have the vision of her elders.

In her opinion, the whole change came too quickly, and the other party even took out her master's and doctoral boss to suppress her. Xia Wei had no choice but to take the bottle tremblingly.

"Last time it was a maggot, this time it was a leech. Will you have to have a cockroach next time?" Xia Wei's face was naturally not much better, but after complaining for a few words, he still calmed down and asked, "How do you do this thing?"

"Packed with sterile gauze under the blood-seeking suture mouth, put one on your ear at a time, and suck it for more than half an hour every morning and evening. The first time, because of the blood stasis, I put it a few more rounds and wait until the color on the auricle fades before it ends."

Qi Jing shook the tweezers in his hand and said, "After the insect is full, it will release the suction cup and leave by itself. Take it away at this time, and don't force it to pull it."

"I understand this." Xia Wei took out the small notebook, memorized a few words, and asked, "What's the matter?"

"After the first round of serum stasis is cleaned, the wound will be so open. This suture mouth will remain bleeding due to the anticoagulant effect, which will replace the function of venous blood recovery. When the anticoagulant does not work well at night, I will do another one and operate it again as required."

"Just like this? Keep bleeding?"

"It's just bloodletting! There is no need to change the medicine or bandage during this period. In fact, the process is quite simple." Qi Jing said, "But this kind of small thing is eaten and pulled, leaving only the nutrients in the blood, and then squeeze out all the excess water. Therefore, the gauze placed on the back of the ears is easy to wet, so you have to change it diligently."

Xia Wei nodded: "How long will it take to get better?"

"Half a month."

Xia Wei thought about it and still felt a little unbelievable: "The wound is just like this? What if I get infected?"

"No, leeches have antibacterial ingredients in their saliva, and it is easy to observe the situation of the suture mouth." Qi Jing smiled and gave an example, "When antibiotics were scarce, rural areas would use leeches with honey to treat acute conjunctivitis. Originally, honey has the effect of antibacterial......... honey??" (2)

As he spoke, Qi Jing seemed a little distracted, and his sentences became intermittent and inconsistent. The leech and honey on his mouth turned necrosis and edema, and his eyes moved from Xia Wei to Li Wenyi, which felt a sense of jumping thinking when mania occurred.

"His wife shouldn't know...is that really that?"

He frowned and stared at the two policemen beside the bed. Just as the police saw the suspect, Li Wenyi felt uncomfortable: "Brother Qi, what's wrong with you?"

Qi Jing still didn't reply. If he didn't know him, he would definitely think he had met a madman when he saw this situation. Xia Wei worked with him for a while in the ward. He had experience and knew that this guy's ideas had been connected to other places, so he said, "I guess he had thought of something amazing."

Li Wenyi looked at his old comrade-in-arms and then looked at Qi Jing: "Have you discovered anything?"

Qi Jing scratched his forehead, walked to the window alone, and looked at the scenery outside the window: "It's a bit messy, so I'm just going to make up my mind..."

Li Wenyi also pointed at Li Han and asked him for the cause of death, so he naturally would not talk too much.

But Xia Wei is different. She has only said halfway through what she said, but she doesn’t have the patience to continue waiting: “You made it clear before you talk to the station. Why is the honey you just said antibacterial?”

"Honey? What honey?"

"It's the leech thrown into the honey and treats conjunctivitis with the juice inside."

"Oh, that's a local method used by rural veterinarians." Qi Jing said lightly, and then said, "The ancients discovered that honey can help wounds heal for a long time. Don't you know?"

"Ha? Do you mean I am not even as good as the ancients?"

"I'm just saying that, why are you taking it seriously?" Qi Jing tightened his brows and pointed to the hospital bed and said, "Hurry up and put insects on Officer Lu. If you have any questions, your ears will be useless. If you have any questions, you will talk after you finish your work. Don't interrupt my thinking now..."

Xia Wei had no choice. The treatment was suppressed by the director, and the patient was in her group, so she could only do it.

Qi Jing's attention is now on the officer Lu, and his mind is full of question marks. It was not until the leech therapy was about to end that he came back to his senses and gave Li Wenyi a wink by the bedside: "Brother Li, don't mind if I ask a few questions."

Li Wenyi knew that he had some strange guesses again: "If you want to ask, ask what you want."

Qi Jing came to Lu Huan, looked at half of his ear that had faded, and asked, "Officer Lu, what was going on when the body was discovered? Is there anything strange about it?"

"Scenario..." Lu Huan tried to recall twice, and then said in a non-standard Mandarin, "It's nothing, it's just an ordinary forest."

Qi Jing thought about it and then suppressed the question. He didn't ask further questions. Instead, he changed his words and asked the woman who bit his ear: "Where is the woman who bites your ear now?"

Lu Huan showed no disgust, just lay on the bed, smiled bitterly and sighed: "It seems that something was wrong with her body. I heard that she fainted in the health center."

"Discovered? The health center?" Qi Jing immediately realized something was wrong, "Where is her?"

"We are already on the way to Danyang." Lu Huan glanced at the few messages just sent on his phone and said, "Because we are an important suspect, we still have to pick you up and drop you off with us by car."

"I fainted...that should be a coma..."

Qi Jing paused again, staring at Lu Huan, but it seemed that he was not looking at him. The pause lasted much shorter, and after a while, he asked again: "Is there anything wrong with you when you went to her house?"

"What's wrong?" Lu Huan couldn't remember, "It's similar to other people's homes, I look quite normal."

"Where is that person?" Qi Jing repeated it in his mind, and then thought of a detail, "When she bit your ear, she must have to put her face up and open her mouth. At that time, did you smell any strange smell?"

"odor?"

Lu Huan was asked about such an inexplicable question for the first time. Ordinary people have to doubt this situation, let alone he is a policeman. But others have helped him after all, so he didn't say it clearly, but looked at Li Wenyi.

"What do you think of me?" Li Wenyi said quickly, "Want to think about it quickly, do you smell anything?"

"this......"

Li Wenyi didn't know Qi Jing's intention to ask this, but he said seriously: "Brother Qi must have his intention to ask this, which will be helpful for solving the case."

Seeing that his comrades trusted him so much, Lu Huan didn't hide it: "It's true that there is a strange smell in his mouth. I didn't care too much about being bitten at that time. Now after you mention it like this, I have a little impression."

"What's the smell? Can you describe it?"

"It's weird, a little pungent, and a little stinky," Lu Huan said with a smile. "I thought I had eaten onion and garlic, but we didn't go at mealtime when we went there."

"garlic?"

“A little like.”

"That's organic phosphorus..." Qi Jing gave her own answer, "She was already poisoned at that time, so she was unconscious."

"suicide?"

"I don't know much about this." Qi Jing said, "I have been hard for two days after drinking pesticides. Now I am unconscious again, and the situation is very dangerous."

Lu Huan did not dare to neglect, so he took his cell phone and told the colleague on the other end about the seriousness of the matter: "You drive on the road quickly! Yes, it's pesticide poisoning!! Go... Which hospital to go?"

"Danyang Hospital." Qi Jing said without thinking much, "I asked them to go to Danyang Hospital directly after entering the city. I would like to say hello to the inner room here."

After Lu Huan gave a few more instructions, he hung up the phone: "Nothing can happen."

"I guess I didn't drink much at that time if I could last for so long, otherwise her neurological symptoms would not be able to stay in the irritable and irritable stage." Qi Jing comforted her and didn't have to ask what she should ask, "Now, back to the question just now, do you find anything strange when you entered her house?"

In response to the question just now, Lu Huan naturally thought of the smell. This association reminded him of something: "Well, there was indeed a strange smell when entering the house. But we didn't take it seriously. After all, it was someone else's house, so it's normal that it smells badly if the ventilation is not good."

"What's the smell?" Qi Jing was only interested in this answer.

"Mothballs. Lu Huan said, "It feels like rummaging through boxes to find seasonal clothes, but the smell is much heavier than that."
