<h4>Chapter 105: Anatomy [1]</h4>


    “Let’s go.”


    “Yes, heum…”


    It seemed like Makbong was also suspicious of something that he usually did for the windows.


    There was very low probability of it, but the figures looked really strange.


    Therefore, Ganghyuk walked fast.


    He wanted to see it what happened there.


    ‘It is nonsense. Impossible.’


    He repeated the same words in his mind while walking to the ce.


    As he came to the room closer, he could hear coarse breath and noise.


    When Ganghyuk came to the entry, a servant stopped him.


    “Hey, it is private property. Go… Ah, Sir.”


    It was the il.


    The house looked like amon house in the marketce, but it was thoroughly guarded by the il and his fellows.


    “Oh, good job. Do you know who he is?”


    “Yes, Dr. Heo and Miss Yeoju.”


    “Do not call her Miss.”


    “Sorry, sir.”


    Ganghyuk praised the il who did his duty faithfully and went in.


    The strange silhouette was seen through the door. (Doors in the traditional Korean houses are covered with paper called Hanji and you can see the silhouette on the door.)


    He could hear harsh breath.


    Heo Jun following Ganghyuk felt strange and asked.


    “What is going on there? It is the room where the patient is.”


    He might be thinking something starting with a ‘S’.


    But Ganghyuk thought of the other thing considering the situation, so he did not answer.


    “Let’s go in.”


    “Going in? If we enter…”


    Ganghyuk knew what Heo Jun would say.


    ‘He might say that we would see the scene that we should not see… But it is not a good thing to see, either.’


    When Ganghyuk opened the door, they could see what happened there.


    Dolseok was sweating.


    He was almost breathless.


    But he did not forget greeting Ganghyuk.


    “Oh, sir, you are here finally.”


    Yeoni was blowing her breath to the mouth of the patient so she could not greet.


    Ganghyuk asked entering the room.


    “How long have you been doing that?”


    “More than 15 minutes.”


    “Ok. Stop.”


    “Yes.”


    Ganghyuk let Dolseok take a rest and came to the patient.


    His cloth was untied and there was reddish trace of hands between nipples.


    ‘He found the right ce. Dolseok is smart.’


    Ganghyuk eximed in his mind and put his hands on the chest.


    When he pushed a little, he could feel that the bones were broken.


    It meant Dolseok pressed hard enough to break the rib cage.


    In other words, he did the CPR appropriately for more than 15 minutes.


    ‘Yeoni performed mouth-to-mouth…’


    She looked like a paramedic.


    Ganghyuk thought he taught his students very well and touched the groin of the patient.


    He tried to feel the pulse in the artery which is thicker than the carotid artery.


    “Nothing.”


    There was no pulse at all.


    “Yeoni, stop it.”


    “Ah, yes.”


    “I will see his eyes, too.”


    With the remark of Ganghyuk, Dolseok gave him the pen light from his home visit bag.


    ‘Oh, he is quick. Dolseok is a good assistant.’


    He felt that he was in the hospital.


    When he looked back, Dolseok was standing with the face of a tail wagging dog.


    “Dolseok, you are working hard to be pardoned. Haha. Don’t drink next time.”


    “Yes, sir. I am always doing my best, sir.”


    “Ok, I will see the eyes.”


    Ganghyuk looked at the eyes of the patient.


    When the light goes in, the pupil should get smaller.


    It was because the iris coordinates the amount of the lighting into the eyes.


    But this patient did not show any response.


    “His eyes are open. Eum.”


    His heart stopped, eyes were open, and there was no voluntary breathing.


    He was clinically dead.


    If he was a young man and there were modern hospital facilities, there might be some hope.


    But he was an old man and what they had was a breathing device made of scrotum.


    “He is dead. No meaning to do that.”


    If he was under CPR more than 30 minutes, it meant that he crossed the line.


    Ganghyuk covered the face of the patient with a linen.


    It was a formal deration that he was dead.


    “Yes, I thought so.”


    Yeoni leaned herself against the wall with an exhausted body.


    “I know how hard it is. I performed artificial breathing when I was an intern.”


    After 15 minutes’ administration, he had sweated a lot.


    He had to press the chest faster than 100 times per minute with his all might.


    “What is his name and age?”


    “There is nobody who knew him. He does not have any family. The one whoes with him is in the same situation. He is waiting for his turn…”


    “Ok, I see.”


    It meant that they could have a dead body without family of friend.


    It was what he wanted but he did not feelfortable as he had to deal with the body.


    But it did not mean that he gave up his n.


    Ganghyuk whispered after looking around.


    “Makbong and Yeoni. Move this corpse to the warehouse behind the house. Dolseok, go and get Heo Im.”


    “Yes, sir.”


    Dolseok went out withoutints.


    He had to move quickly because he made a big mistake.


    He did not want to be hit.


    Makbong and Yeoni transported the dead body to the warehouse.


    The body was very light because he had been sick for long time.


    “You can stay here with me for a while and move to the warehouse when everything is ready.”


    “Ok, why should we wait for a while? Is it not the thing to be done quickly?”


    “It is better to process the body. It decays quickly when the body has much water.”


    “Water?”


    “You will see what I mean. Yeoju, will you follow or stay here? If you think you cannot handle it, you can stay here.”


    They are about to perform the anatomy.


    It must give more terrible scenes than normal operations.


    “I am ok. If I were not there, who could draw the pictures?”


    “Yes, you are right. But you may be shocked.”


    “Sir, I have seen many operations including brain operation. I am ok.”


    “Heum.”


    Ganghyuk looked at Yeoju with surprise as he did not expect it.


    ‘Sometimes girls are stronger.’


    Ganghyuk remembered the days when he was a medical student.


    He had fewer than 10 female fellow students, none of whom failed.


    But he saw some of male colleagues dropped during the course.


    “Ok. But if you cannot handle the stress, you can leave the scene at any time.”


    “Yes, don’t worry.”


    While he was checking Yeoju, Yeoni came in.


    “Sir, we are ready.”


    “Oh, let’s go.”


    “There is nobody else in this house.”


    “Yes, the il did a good job.”


    Ganghyuk pointed the il who was standing beside the gate.


    As he was originally a robber, he was good at hiding.


    Most people near Bojewon might not know the existence of this house.


    “Yes, you are absolutely right. I will open the door.”


    “Yes.”


    Yeoni opened the door without hesitance.


    It made some sound.


    It was not big, but they looked around as they had to do some secret works.


    “Hu”


    Heo Jun made low scream.


    Yeoju who persisted that she woulde covered her mouth with her hands.


    The view they were seeing was grotesque.


    “Why do you hold him in the air?”


    “There is a reason.”


    Ganghyuk said approaching to the body that was hung upside down.


    He wore gloves and held a scalpel in his hand.


    “If there is blood, it is hard to do anatomy. Now I will drain the blood.”


    Ganghyuk stabbed the side of groin.


    As he held the scalpel vertically, a deep cut was made.


    It cut artery and veins altogether.


    Flowing


    As the heart stopped long time ago, all the blood stagnated in the leg flew out.


    It filled the basin that they brought there in advance.


    “Now, we need to make it reverse.”


    With his order, Makbong and Yeoni moved quickly.


    -Kung


    With a light noise, the dead body fell on the straws.


    Makbong untied the rope on the ankles and asked Ganghyuk.


    “Sir, where I should tie it? Did you say the neck?”


    “No, are you crazy? If you tied on the neck, it would break bones. Tie the rope on the armpits”


    “Yes, sir.”


    Makbong was good at tying.


    Even though it was a little difficult to tie on the armpits, he could finish it very quickly.


    “Now, I am lifting him again.”


    “Ok. Get the basin under the body. If it is spilled, we will have hard time to clean it.”


    “Yes, sir.”


    Yeoni and Makbong hung the body in the air again.


    Ganghyuk adjusted the position of the body so that the blood coulde to the basin.


    Heo Jun and Yeoju could not say anything.


    They had not thought or imagined this kind of sight even in the dream.


    -Flowing


    Anyway, blood flew out quickly.


    It was possible that they could start the process right after his death.


    It must take a few days or more for a corpse to be delivered to the hospital.


    In this case, however, it took several minutes only to transport the body from the operation room to, so to speak, the anatomyboratory.


    “Good, it is almost done.”


    Ganghyuk murmured while watching the blood in two basins.


    Considering the weight of the patient, it seemed that all the blood in his body came out.


    “Take him down and ce him on the table.”


    Ganghyuk pointed the table that he made specially for this anatomy practice.


    It was as high as the navel of Ganghyuk. It was a good height for him to do operation.


    It might be higher for others.


    But Ganghyuk was not a man who considered others’ situation first.


    -Knock


    When he put the body on the table, there was some knocking sounds.


    “What is it?”


    “I am here, Dolseok.”


    “What? Heo Im came this early?”


    “Yes, he was on the way. He wanted to greet you. So I did not have to go to the pce to bring him.”


    The passion of two Heos was incredible.


    Ganghyuk ordered to open the door with satisfaction and then all of the participants could gather together.


    Ganghyuk was the only man who held a scalpel in his hand.


    “Ok, I will start from the stomach. We need to remove organs quickly.”
