Chains were wound around the hospital's three entrances and passages, and locks were attached. Among the black masks, the only man wearing a red mask put a loudspeaker to his mouth.

From now on, this building will be occupied by the Animal Liberation Federation. Everyone, come out to the hallway!

People were flustered.

Jin Daeyoung, who was standing next to Dowook, suddenly crouched down and leaned against the wall.

"Oh my god."

Tingle.

Jin Daeyoung's sense flooded into his fingertips. A strong impulse filled with a sense of crisis. Dowook couldn't suppress it and stuck his body to the wall like Jin Daeyoung.

"The analyst's concern was true.

Jin Daeyoung, who was muttering, saw Dowook next to him. And he quickly spoke with a low voice.

"Doctor, I'm a special force dispatched by the Ministry of National Defense. At dawn, I received reports that environmental terrorists would act radically, and the target seems to be this hospital."

"What?"

In large-scale missions, there were special forces members who went undercover to participate just in case. Since nothing happened most of the time, the special forces called this "overseas vacation." Jin Daeyoung revealed that he was in such a situation.

No wonder you did not seem like a professional interpreter.

"Can you look out for me for a second? I have to report to the intelligence officer.

Crash!

The window in the lounge broke and an ALF member suddenly pushed his head in.

Come out!

In a little bit.

Medical staff, clerks, doctors and attendants from each country gathered in the hallway of the VIP Emergency Center.

The man in the red mask revealed their purpose through a loudspeaker.

-Our goal is not you guys. If you stay quiet until things are resolved, no one will get hurt. From now on, put all communication devices you own in that box.

An ALF member stood in front of the people with a box. A body search began for the peoples phones.

Lee Il-soo, who was standing with an uneasy face, saw Dowook.

"I think he's aiming for the French minister. How was the prognosis of the surgery?

"I heard that he woke up from the anesthesia and recovered consciousness immediately, but I am not sure. What are those people up to?"

"Theyll press him to revise the agreement of the meeting and submit it."

Jin Daeyoung, who was closely watching the ALF's movements, said this. Dowook and Professor Lee's eyes were on him, and he added in detail.

"They will try to take the minister hostage until the agreement is approved. But don't worry. They're making a mistake. The Chinese authorities are bound to be slow to respond to the issue of other citizens, but there are many nationals here. Theyre looking down on China too much.

Before Jin Daeyoung's words were finished, a sound came out of the loudspeaker.

-All the Chinese who gave their communication device can go outside through the door. We don't intend to harm you. Tell the public security carefully.

As the Chinese began to go outside in a row, Jin Daeyoung's expression hardened.

The ALF member with the box approached Dowook.

While giving up cell phones and being searched repeatedly, the number of people gathered in the hallway decreased to 30.

17 doctors from the other countries and 13 attendants accordingly.

Zhang Wen, the director of the center, who was walking out for the last time, looked sadly at the remaining people.

The man in the red mask with the loudspeaker looked like their representative. He constantly instruced others with a walkie-talkie as he looked out the window. Meanwhile, about 10 minutes passed.

Hey. Let us out, too. You said we werent your goal.

The man in the red mask's gaze moved toward them at Dr. Garrett's voice.

Where are you from?

U.S. I'm sure you know what happens when you mess with Americans abroad.

A smirk seemed to appear on the man in the red masks face. And then he looked at the ALF members standing on one side.

Raise your hand if you have American citizenship.

When four raised their hands, he pointed to Garrett.

Show us what happens when an American beats an American.

Garrett was greatly embarrassed by this.

A large member put the baseball bat in his hand on the floor and approached him with fists raised.

Garrett waved his hand and shouted.

Stop! I'm a vegetarian! I love animals as much as you do!

The man in the red mask asked Garrett.

Oh, vegetarian? What's your name?

Garrett Greer.

The man in the red mask held up his cell phone and typed something.

Americans are very strange. They proudly disclose their lives as well as recording it carefully on Facebook. Like this.

The man in the red mask turned the screen toward Garrett.

I don't know when T-bone Steak Mania became vegetarian.

That, that

As soon as Garrett, whose face had lost color, stepped back, the man in the red masks cell phone rang.

Stop.

The man in the red mask signaled the member to stop scaring the doctor and put the cell phone to his ear.

Yeah, say it. Yeah. The French doctor next isn't in charge?

The man turned to the people gathered around him.

Is there a doctor in here who operated on Minister Kushner? I'm going to go up to the second floor and check his health.

Dowooks heart dropped.

The gray sky and red window that he encountered when he entered the country suddenly crossed his mind.

I thought something felt off. Damn.

Jin Daeyoung grabbed Dowook's arm as he tried to raise his hand.

"Ill go."

"What?"

"They only have clubs as weapons. Its possible to overpower them. We can secure a spectacular view and at least take the time to get out of here."

Professor Lee's eyes also grew bigger at Jin Daeyoung's confident words. Professor Lee did not hear that Jin Daeyoung was an undercover special force member.

"We ask for your cooperation in this operation."

The sensation of trained soldiers continued to flood in.

Dowook lowered the hand he was trying to lift. He couldnt help but believe what the special forces member said.

If you don't come out soon, well have to resort to violence.

Im here!

Jin Daeyoung walked forward.

On the chin of the red mask, two ALF members took Jin Daeyoung up the stairs. His proud back as he walked seemed like the main character of an action movie.

I wish you success.

Maybe about two minutes later.

Someone's hand suddenly came up to the corner of the wall bent toward the stairs.

Huh?

The blood-stained hand slipped and left a mark on the wall, so Dowook was surprised and watched.

Subsequently, the owner of the hand collapsed and showed his face.

It was Jin Daeyoung.

The ALF members dragged him, who had passed out, in front of the man in the red mask.

-He made a fuss? What about injuries? Four people?

The man in the red mask looked around and turned toward the emergency center.

-It's disadvantageous for us to be dispersed. Move the minister over there.

The man in the red mask put the loudspeaker to his mouth and gave instructions one after another.

-Everyone, move into the emergency center. And. The doctor who operated on Minister Kushner. Come out here were being nice.

Ugh'

Dowook walked forward with a sigh..

The man in the red mask looked at Dowook with a sharp look.

Are you sure it's you? Are you trying to do something like him?

Theres no one strong enough to lie even after they see that someone beaten to this point. I'm a normal person.

If you mess with me again, it wont end with just that. Let me know when the minister comes down. Got it?

Fortunately, it didn't seem like he would be beaten like Jin Daeyoung, but as a doctor and a Korean, he had to ask at least.

Can I see how he's doing? He shows convulsions due to a concussion.

The man in the red mask nodded while looking at Jin Daeyoung, who fell still.

Heal me. All the rest of you go in there!

"Professor Lee!"

Dowook asked Professor Lee to hold Jin Daeyoung's legs and put his hands under his armpits.

Jin Daeyoung was laid on the nearest emergency room bed, and Dowook cut his shirt off. When he lightly touched the side with the bruise, one place was recessed.

"Number 8, rib fracture."

"What about bleeding?"

"The broken bone didn't poke his lungs. The respiratory rate is in the normal category, so I hope nothing is horribly wrong with him."

He couldnt ask those people who were paranoidly watching over this place to let him do an X-ray so he did the best he could.

Fortunately, when he attached Jin Daeyoung to the vital monitor and looked at the figures, he found that there were no other injuries.

After dressing the wound on the face and attaching gauze, the first aid was completed.

Professor Lee looked at Dowook in front of the medical tool cabinet.

"I found a cervical spine splint here. Should I put this on too?"

"His neck is okay."

It was a small relief to see that the shock muscle cramps seen in Jin Daeyoung's body had subsided. Except for the ribs, the rest of the injuries were minor.

Sigh. What kind of mess is this?

He thought he could rest for a moment but a stretcher with the minister lying on it was pushed through the doors of the emergency center. The French doctor, Claude, could also be seen among the ALF members.

Claude sat down next to the treatment room where the minister was settled with a pale face.

-Doctor!

The man in the red mask standing at the entrance pointed to the minister while looking at Dowook.

"Professor Lee. If his blood pressure drops, please increase the dose of fluid."

"Okay."

As Dowook approached, Claude looked at him with a teary face.

Are you okay, Dr. Cassel?

I'm fine. The minister, please.

Claude, who stood next to him, seemed to have a hard time since the morning.

Dowook stood in front of Minister Bern Kushner.

With his head fixed like a cervical spine protector, he was in a deep sleep due to narcotic analgesics. The Chinese doctors seemed to have prescribed it because the headache would be severe after the surgery.

When he connected the vital monitor wire and looked from place to place, he could see an unstable condition.

Stability comes first.

The man in the red mask approached.

How is it? Can we have a conversation?

If you stop prescribing painkillers, conversations will be possible, but there is a possibility of cerebral hemorrhage as soon as you overdo it. It's been less than 12 hours since this patient's head was opened

That's why doctors exist. Make sure he wakes up in an hour. Oh, and

The man in the red mask pointed at the entrance.

You're responsible for the wounds caused by your colleague, right? Treat them, too.

ALF's injured people came in holding their hands, arms, and sides. There were four people who suffered trauma while fighting against Jin Daeyoung.

Dowook sighed again and pointed toward the general clinic.

This way.

Four people sat on two beds.

A customized splint was placed on the person suffering from a finger fracture, the person with the dislocated elbow had it popped back at once, and the person with the torn forehead had their wound dressed quickly.

The man in the red mask standing behind asked.

Aren't you doing it half-heartedly? Why's it so fast?

It was properly treated.

Dowook inadvertently answered back while spraying disinfectant on the person with a long cut on his palm. He revealed his treatment findings to the moaning member.

Hmm. This is a wound that needs to be sutured. If you anesthetize it, the wound will heal slower. Even if you don't anesthetize, the pain will be less than the feeling of the disinfectant. What should I do?

Without anesthesia.

Dowook held a needle tied to a suture thread with tongs and silently sewed through the torn skin.

Rubbing the wound with disinfectant cotton one more time after suturing ten times. After attaching the gauze, he stepped back.

The man in the red mask, who had been watching the treatment with suspicious eyes the whole time, asked the member who had even undergone suture surgery.

Are you okay?

Yes. It really doesn't hurt. It's stuck together.

The man in the red mask tilted his head at the bright appearance of the member who raised his palm. No matter how hard he looked at it, it seemed to have been treated roughly, but all the treated people were moving well.

The man in the red mask looked at Dowook.

You.

Dowook pointed to the four patients with a slightly annoyed look.

Emergency trauma cannot be treated roughly. Even small wounds can cause infections and even life can be threatened. And what do you mean so fast? I didn't have nurse assistance, so I did it slower than usual.
