Dixon did not say anything. He just turned his face around. No one knew since his handsome face, which would only have a calm look, was covered with tears.
Dixon reached out and wiped his tears. When he touched the wet, he realized that he had dropped tears.
Jarvis sighed as the two sat in the car being taken to the hospital. He took the time to call Lenard to ask him to be prepared at the hospital. But when the call was connected, Lenard said, "Dixon, did something happen to you there too? My hospital is now busy as hell right now. You have injured patients there too?"
Dixon took a deep breath. His lungs still had some smoke. He coughed a few times, coughing up a few mouthfuls of blood, which made Jarvis turn pale, "Holy shit, I suddenly remembered that you just recovered from kidney transfer surgery. Are you okay?"
Dixon waved his hand and said in a mute voice, "I'm okay. Lenard, Victor just suffered the implication of the explosion. I just rescued him and his friend. They will be transferred to your hospital later..."
"You might have to wait." Lenard was a good friend of Dixon. But he was a doctor first. It was his duty to save lives. Today, the explosion involved too many people who were injured. Even if Victor arrived there now, there was no place for him to be hospitalized. And he had to wait in line.
At this time, everyone was equal in front of life and death. Even if Dixon was Lenard's own brother, there was no way to let Lenard cut in line to examine Victor first.
Jarvis was anxious, "Dixon might have some trouble. Lenard, you..."
"Dixon, you guys come to the hospital right now. And I'll help you as much as I can to treat you in advance, okay? Because there are really a lot of people who need surgery. We can't..."
His meaning was simple. Dixon didn't have privileges. And even if he did have privileges, he couldn't use his power at this particular juncture.
Dixon pursed his lips, "Can anyone else..."
A shout came from Lenard's side, "Lenard, the wounded are bleeding profusely!"
"I'm coming!" Lenard shouted to the phone, "Dixon, I have to go. I can't treat your problem for now. I'll try to arrange the best doctor for you when you arrive at the hospital, okay?"
Lenard hung up the phone. The ambulance was still whistling. The emergency siren overhead pierced Dixon's ears. Everyone was anxious.
"It's okay, Victor has just passed out now. He just got a few burns. He's not smashed." Jarvis did not know how to comfort Dixon, "he knew the cooler could help them block a little. Not to mention, the cooler was cold as long as it was still running. At least, the cooler made a little use. He's pretty smart. Don't worry."
Dixon did not say anything. His fingers clasped together and shook vaguely.
Later, when they arrived at the hospital, Lenard was shuttling through the halls. And people kept calling for Lenard. He couldn't even have time to look after Dixon.
"Lenard, the injured patient over there has a necrotic joint, we need your help!"
Dixon looked up to Lenard. Jarvis worried about Dixon's situation and called out, "Lenard!"
Lenard turned back, "Wait, I'll let Flynn take you there, Flynn..."
However, it was this move that caused a group of patients lined up next to them, bleeding or injured, to be enraged. They thought Dixon was going to cut in line, "Why should they have the privilege?"
"Yeah! Isn't everyone equal in front of the doctor!"
"Why do they have extra care? Just because they have an unconscious kid? My son is still bleeding too!"
