Chapter 200 Rescue
Rufus' POV:
Together with the gray wolf, I rushed back to the hospital. Just when we were finally about to reach Sylvia's ward, I turned around.
"Awoo...?" The gray wolf sniffed the air in confusion, seeming to have picked up Sylvia's scent. It rushed over to the ward and pawed the door, telling me to open it.
"Just wait here for a while. I'll have the laboratory test this plant."
I quickly then made my way to the lab.
Just in case, I thought it would be better to have the doctors check the plant first whether it was poisonous or not. I did not dare gamble on Sylvia's life simply on an unknown plant.
When I got back from the lab, I spotted the gray wolf baring its teeth at the door of the ward. Its body language told me that it was very anxious and tense, ready to bust down the door at any moment.
I hurriedly opened the door for it and the wolf rushed it immediately.
Sylvia was still lying in her bed with a coma.
I walked over and caress her smooth forehead. "When the results for the plant test comes out, you're going to wake up soon."
The gray wolf growled at what I said. It seemed to be disdainful. It nudged me away from the side of Sylvia's bed so that it could climb on top and lie down beside her.
I didn't bother stopping the wolf, thinking that Sylvia would be very happy to have its accompaniment.
Anxiously, I paced back and forth. I couldn't just sit down and stay calm until the test results had come out.
Never in my life had I felt like time was passing by so slowly.
Even the gray wolf became anxious as well. It hopped off the bed and nipped at my trousers. It seemed to be telling me it wanted to go somewhere.
At this time, the door creaked open and in came Ferrill with the results.
"What's the news?" Without waiting for him to respond, I took the clipboard and read it for myself.
The gray wolf jumped onto the table beside me and placed a paw on my arm, wanting to read it too.
Although I didn't think it would even understand what was written, I still moved a little so that it could see.
"Results show that the plant is harmless. They don't know yet if it will produce any other adverse side effects. Unfortunately, the most important part of the results say that the plant doesn't seem to have a detoxification effect." Ferrill pursed his lips awkwardly.
The gray wolf got down from the table and roared at Ferrill, its eyes burning with anger. It looked like it was ready to attack Ferrill in the next second.
Frightened, Ferrill didn't dare to move. "Can... Can it understand what we're saying?"
I got a little annoyed and stood in front of the gray wolf after folding up the results. "Be quiet." The gray wolf's growling stopped and it stubbornly plopped onto the floor. At this point, its bandage had
also come loose, exposing the deep wound on its neck.
"Where's the plant?" I turned to Ferrill.
"Right here." Ferrill handed me a resealable bag and gave me a hesitant look. "Are you really considering it? What if it only makes the situation worse?"
I then looked back at the plant and fell into a more painful dilemma. What was I supposed to do now?
Suddenly, the ECG monitor let out a long, sharp sound. The line on the monitor was almost running straight.
That was Sylvia's heartbeat. It was about to stop.
Scared out of my wits, I rushed to Sylvia's bed. "Sylvia!"
As several doctors came in for cardiac resuscitation, Ferrill had to pull me away from the bed.
The noise of the different people and instruments filled my ears with pain. I tried to shake it off, but I could already feel lightheaded. "The patient's main artery is untouchable."
"The upper limb contraction pressure is less than 60mmHg." "Prepare for electric defibrillation." Despair came over me like an avalanche. All of a sudden, my surroundings had been deafened. I could not hear anything until I saw Ferrill approaching me and I saw his lips moving. Material © NôvelDrama.Org.
I realized he was talking as I came back to my senses. "What were you saying?"
"Miss Todd has been successfully resuscitated." But Ferrill sighed. "However, she is still in critical condition."
All the strength I had just regained dissipated again, and my knees buckled. Ferrill had to hold me up. I clumsily pushed his hands away and made my way to the gray wolf, who was also very anxious. I handed it the plant.
"How should we use this?"
