"What happened?" Janet, who happened to be in the lobby, rushed over to help Joshua support him. "Was he attacked by vampires?"
"Yes..." Joshua nodded while crying, "It's all my fault for being careless. I thought there was only one vampire, so I convinced my brother to attack it together. I didn't expect there was another one on the other side."
"Let's get him to the infirmary first," Gu Wanyin said urgently.
Although the hotel didn't have a formal hospital like before, it was equipped with a basic infirmary.
This way, if guests staying in single rooms fell ill or got injured, others could take care of them.
There had been guests who returned to the hotel injured before.
But their injuries weren't too serious.
Of course, there were also those who went out and never came back...
Bruno was the first one to return to the hotel with such severe injuries and still manage to survive.
The infirmary was on the first floor, not far away.
Janet and Joshua helped Bruno to a bed in the infirmary.
Gu Wanyin and Old Six followed them.
Bruno was now unconscious, and the bleeding from his wounds hadn't stopped.
"What should we do?" Joshua cried while covering his wound, "My brother won't die, will he?"
After all, she was just a girl not even twenty years old.
After the apocalypse, Bruno was her only family.
The siblings had always relied on each other, and now with Bruno severely injured and uncertain whether he would survive, she naturally panicked.
However, Janet, who usually appeared weak and fragile, was surprisingly calm at this moment.
"Don't panic," Janet patted her shoulder reassuringly, "There's gauze sold at the general store. I'll ask other guests if they have any hemostatic medicine. Oh right, I remember there was a doctor in Duke Daine's team, I'll go find him."
"But Duke Daine tried to kill you before..."
"That was him, it has nothing to do with the doctor in his team," Janet smiled, "Besides, when he died, none of his people pleaded for him, which shows how unpopular he was. Anyway, I have to at least try asking. You stay here and look after your brother, keep talking to him, don't let him fall completely unconscious."
"Okay!"
Janet ran out of the infirmary after speaking.
Gu Wanyin said to the system in her mind: "Janet usually seems timid and weak, but when real problems arise, she's actually very strong and rational."
"Yes, you really can't judge a book by its cover."
Meanwhile, Joshua also forced herself to be strong, talking to Bruno with a trembling voice.
"Brother, can you hear my voice? It's Joshua. Don't fall asleep, Janet has gone to find a doctor for you."
"Let me take a look at him," Old Six suddenly jumped to her side.
"Old Six?" Gu Wanyin called out in surprise, "What are you doing?"
"Sister, don't worry! I know a little bit about medicine. Let me check his pulse first to see if there's still hope."
Gu Wanyin was shocked.
Since when did garlic know medicine?
"Well, it is the first garlic that grew from the ground," the system said, "So it's not strange that it knows a bit of medicine."
Gu Wanyin: "I understand the logic, but what's the connection between these two things?"
"The first garlic deserves some special treatment."
Old Six had already started checking Bruno's pulse.
"How is he?" Joshua asked anxiously.
"Hmm... his injuries are indeed very serious, and he's almost lost too much blood. Even if we stop the bleeding later, he'll need a blood transfusion, otherwise, his life could be in danger at any moment."
"Blood transfusion? How... how do we do that? Can I give my blood to my brother?" Joshua asked in confusion.
With their current medical capabilities, they didn't have blood transfusion technology.
"Direct relatives shouldn't give blood, and besides, the hotel doesn't have equipment for drawing and transfusing blood," Old Six shrugged, "Now, we can only see if your doctor has any solutions."
Gu Wanyin's brow furrowed as well.
Indeed, the hotel didn't have the equipment.
So, would Bruno...
Although they were just hotel guests, Gu Wanyin wouldn't feel good watching a life slip away before her eyes.
"System, is there any way to get blood drawing and transfusion equipment? And some hemostatic medicine would be good too," Gu Wanyin asked in her mind.
"Well, I'll ask, but they probably won't give it to you directly. You'll need to complete tasks. And if guests want to use them, they'll need to spend points."
"Yes, that's reasonable. Please ask."
Soon, Janet returned with the doctor from Daine's team.
The doctor held no grudge against Janet, and he had been dissatisfied with Daine for a long time.
Moreover, with a doctor's compassionate heart, he was willing to treat Bruno wholeheartedly now.
Besides the doctor, Tom's team also came along.
When they were about to enter the infirmary, one team member stopped Tom.
"Boss, are you sure you want to give him our hemostatic medicine? You know we don't have much left."
Hearing this, Tom hesitated.
Indeed, hemostatic medicine was hard to find now.
If he had medicine, why shouldn't he save it for his own team members?
At this point, did he really need to show sympathy for others?
But... if Bruno didn't get the hemostatic medicine now, he might die right in front of them.
At this moment, Jerry suddenly spoke up: "Give it if you want to, boss. I think we humans should unite now and fight against the vampires together. People like Bobby and Daine who are evil don't need to be spared, but Bruno is a good kid, he might become a great force in fighting vampires in the future."
Then she said to the other team members: "All kinds of strange things appear in this hotel from time to time. Maybe before long, the hotel will start selling hemostatic medicine."
"What if the hotel doesn't sell hemostatic medicine?" another team member said, "If we give our medicine to him, and in a few days our team members get injured and have no medicine to use, what then?"
Hearing this, Jerry fell silent.
What the team member said wasn't unreasonable...
At this time, they heard the doctor inside the infirmary say: "His injuries are very serious. We must stop the bleeding quickly, and even if we do stop it, he might not survive."
The doctors in this world didn't understand blood transfusion, so he felt helpless looking at Bruno's injuries.
But he knew clearly that if they didn't stop the bleeding soon, Bruno wouldn't survive much longer.
"Doctor, do you have any hemostatic medicine?" Joshua asked frantically, "I, I can exchange points with you! If you give me the medicine, I'll swipe my card for anything you want to buy in the future!"
"This isn't about points," the doctor said with difficulty, "I don't have any hemostatic medicine left now... Captain Tom who came with me seems to have some, but..."
Now, everyone knew how precious medicine was.
Asking someone to give up their hemostatic medicine for Bruno was indeed asking too much.
