Chapter 490
“Okay, I’ll take care of it,” Frank said seriously.
Immediately, he spoke with the physician treating Draco.
Lots of hospitals in Barnes, including the one they were in now, worked together with Frank’s private hospital and that he was quite well-known.
When other physicians saw Frank, they came to consult with him.
Frank looked at Draco’s arm for a while before discovering the tiny puncture in which a micro syringe had entered.
“The pinhole is really tiny since the culprit must have used a micro syringe. You won’t be able to find it until you examine it very closely.”
From Draco’s arm, Frank drew blood and said, “Test his blood and we should know what poison it is.”
As this was happening, the electrocardiogram showed an abrupt change; Draco’s heart rate dropped significantly.
The situation with him was dire!
“Get moving! Come on! Quick, get the patient to the emergency room!”
Draco was hurriedly pushed into the emergency department by the doctor and nearby nurses.
Natalie hurried after them as they left the ward, but Brandon stopped her.
“Please relax. Even if you go there, you can’t be of any use to him. Leave it to Frank.”
Natalie asked, a little bewildered and shocked, “Right now, things weren’t all that bad. What caused his condition to change so drastically?”
Later, Frank explained the results of Draco’s blood test, “It appears that Draco was indeed poisoned. It’s not the first time I’ve encountered this particular poison. The poison of a woodland viper. When bitten by this species of viper, the symptoms the victims showed are identical to those of Draco.”
Frank scratched his jaw and blinked.
“However, I am baffled as to why the poison moved so slowly. Presumably, the poison contains a secondary’ agent that slows its effects.”
To put it simply, it was a puzzle! Though Frank had been a doctor for many years, he had just lately come across these unusual poisons.
He could not help but curse.
“Damn it! Why do some people seem to have a compulsion for creating extremely harmful pharmaceuticals these days? I wish I could get my hands on one of those people! With his voice down, Brandon approached and said, “What should we do now?”
On hearing that, Frank scowled and considered reprimanding Brandon.
Brandon was a major source of trouble. He had already been struggling to figure out what to do about the poison someone had used on Brandon, and then Brandon presented him with yet another problem.
Frank internally groaned, but since Brandon was a close buddy, he just had to help.
So he said, “First, we need to find the syringe. This kind of syringe is minuscule, and it was injected quickly. The fact that it will leave residue is a drawback. Find it and extract the residue so we can examine its components. With that, I believe I can develop an antidote.”
Brandon called Sean and asked him to take people to the airport to see if they could find the syringe Jorge used.
Natalie grabbed Frank’s arm.
“What if… We can’t find the syringe?”
Natalie was feeling a bit pessimistic about the situation.
It was obvious that Jorge had wanted to kill her.
Would he still hide such a damning piece of evidence in the airport? Maybe he had already destroyed it.
Frank said in a sober tone of voice, “If you can’t find it, I can’t analyze the exact components of the poison. And if I can’t do that, there may be no way to save Draco.”
