Chapter 2636: Heart-stopping
“Son, don’t be too rough.” Mu Yazhe finally opened his mouth to make a nefarious comment. “Don’t get carried away. Do just enough and rein the rest in, alright?”
“Got it, daddy.” The younger boy gave a sweet smile like an elegant little gentleman, but in Gao Nan’s eyes at this moment, the smiling child was as terrifying as the devil!
Gao Nan watched in horror as Little Yichen walked up to him, grabbed his jaw with one hand, pinched his cheeks, and forced him to open his mouth wide. With the box in one hand and a stitching needle in another, the other boy slowly strode up to him with a wide beam on his face.
“AH—AHH! AHH...”
...
An ambulance rushed into a hospital in the middle of the night; a group of medical staff nervously carried down a shivering victim from the vehicle. Several doctors were already stationed at the entrance, waiting. Earlier, someone had reported that a man had accidentally swallowed some needles and needed help.
The doctors on duty were perplexed.
Accidentally swallowed some needles?!
In all their years working as physicians, they had indeed come across ignorant children who swallowed odd objects by mistake, but how could an adult of sound intelligence swallow something potentially lethal like those by accident? Could the man be delirious?
The victim, who was sent to the hospital, was none other than Gao Nan.
At that moment, he was lying stiffly on the stretcher while his muscles twitched all over.
The doctors initially thought that he was having an epileptic fit, but upon sending him to the emergency room for a careful examination, the former was shocked to realize that the reason the man was trembling so badly was that his joints had been severely dislocated, and some of the dislocated bones had compressed on the nerves, which led to the involuntary shaking.
What was most alarming about the victim, though, was his mouth.
It was a horrifying sight to behold with blood dripping all over his oral cavity.
The man’s lips, tongue, and buccal surface were pierced with silver needles of varying lengths. Some were piercing from the tip of the tongue, while others were directly piercing the mouth walls, which sent chills down any onlookers’ spine at a glance. It was difficult to imagine how painful it was to have so many needles piercing the mouth’s insides.
The wound treatment was relatively simple, though. After all, these were not considered grave injuries as long as the needles were removed slowly and antiseptic solution to prevent further bleeding was applied. As for the obvious fracture in the right wrist, the broken left kneecap, and the contusions over his knees, the staff would need to do a CT scan to understand the extent of the injury.
Just when the doctor was ready to push him into the radiological room, the man on the gurney suddenly let out a hoarse groan. His facial features were contorted in pain as he cried helplessly,
“AHHH—so painful!”
The doctors thought that it was his fractures inducing pain, but as the nurses on his side tried to soothe him, the man leaned forward slightly in a rigid fashion and, with his eyes looking hideous, pulled a doctor’s sleeve while gasping some jaw-dropping words. “I-I swallowed three needles... Take them out—take them out!”
Just as he finished his statement, he spat a mouthful of blood, probably due to overexertion.
The doctors were greatly alarmed by then, realizing the seriousness of the matter, and proceeded to do another check on him. Only then did they shockingly find out that the man had not dared to talk the whole time because there was a very small needle nestled within his throat cavity. The subsequent examination also revealed two additional needles in his esophagus and stomach. His life was so precarious that any wrong move would cost it!
Gao Nan was immediately pushed into an operating room.
