Chapter 168 Euthanasia Consent Form
However, what He Xiuwen received was the shaking of heads from other scientific researchers.

"This is a new synthetic substance, and it is mixed with many interference items. So far, we have no way to figure out which substance is responsible."

After He Xiuwen fell silent, a scientific researcher said: "Team leader, if we want to thoroughly understand its principle and then work backwards to derive the antidote, it will take too long. They can't last this long."

"How could they not be able to hold on? All the first aid equipment is set up five meters away from them. Once the withdrawal reaction reaches the upper limit and cardiac arrest occurs, immediately use the first aid equipment to save them."

"Team leader... we have tried and we can save him, but our medical staff can no longer hold on..."

A scientific researcher who personally visited the drug detoxification site said.

"What can't hold on?"

It's not that the drug addicts can't hold it, but the medical staff can't hold it, which makes him a little unresponsive.

The researchers looked at each other and sighed.

"After the medical staff rescued drug addicts twice or more, not only did they not feel the joy of saving people, but they also felt guilty of murdering people..."

"What do you mean?"

"Team leader, you can imagine a drowning person trying desperately to get his head out of the deep sea, and then you desperately push him back into the water. This is what the medical staff are doing at the moment..."

"Every rescued person will not only not be grateful, but will attack and seek suicide even more frantically."

"And you know what, every one of these people needs to be chained to an iron cross or they're going to beat themselves to death."

"Although doctors are saving people, no one feels that they are saving people. It is as if they are constantly torturing a person who is begging for death."

"If this continues, not only will the detoxification staff suffer mental breakdown, but our medical staff will also collapse..."

When He Xiuwen heard what the researchers said, he had never been to the front line of drug treatment in person, but he felt horrified just thinking about the scene.

After returning to his laboratory, He Xiuwen hesitated for a moment and reported the general situation to the President.

"The most optimistic estimate is how long it will take to develop an antidote..."

The president seemed to be shocked by the harshness of detoxification, and asked in a somewhat unnatural voice.

He Xiuwen was silent for a moment and then reported truthfully: "Sir, in fact, drugs do not necessarily have corresponding antidotes. They are different from poisons. When nerves are damaged, they are damaged. We currently have no way to repair damaged nerves. ."

He Xiuwen lied, and it is not necessarily the case that there is no antidote, but the time it will take to develop the antidote and whether it will be successful in the end are both unknown.

He no longer wanted to let those people suffer anymore.

If he said there might be hope, the president would not order an execution, either for his own political career or for public opinion.

But at what cost.

The other end of the phone was also silent for a long time, and finally gave an order: "With my signature and consent, euthanasia can be performed."

"Yes."

He Xiuwen breathed a sigh of relief.

This is a good result for everyone. Researchers like them have been unable to research the antidote that may or may not exist, and they will suffer great self-blame.

The medical staff kept pushing the drug addicts who were trying to take a breath out of the water and pushed them back into the water, and they were also suffering.

In the long run, not only drug addicts will go crazy, but medical staff and scientific researchers will also go crazy.

For drug addicts, seeking death is their only goal.

The only possible problem is that euthanasia is currently illegal in most areas, and only the president has the power to order this operation.

Outside the drug rehabilitation center, which resembles a prison, a dozen thick iron pipes separate the two worlds.

Outside the prison, a scientific researcher in white clothes walked over quickly with information.

Chen Xiao, the medical staff responsible for providing first aid to the little girl at any time, breathed a deep sigh of relief after seeing the president's order authorizing euthanasia.Chen Xiao opened the prison gate and walked over to Deng Linxue, who was chained but had never committed suicide before.

Deng Linxue's petite body was trembling constantly, and a few hairs, although they had been wiped clean, were messy and scattered in front of her eyes.

Chen Xiao is the emergency doctor in charge of Deng Linxue. Once the withdrawal reaction of the other party exceeds the endurance limit and the heart stops beating, she will immediately come up and use emergency equipment to rescue him in the shortest time.

Unlike other drug addicts, Deng Linxue did not yell, kowtow crazily, seek death, or perform any other crazy behavior.

During the whole process, apart from enduring all the pain of withdrawal without saying a word and her body constantly shaking, she did not do any other extreme behavior.

Chen Xiao stood outside, she couldn't be like other medical staff, when she heard the people inside stop crying, she knew something was wrong, and went in for first aid immediately.

She needed to look at the other person without blinking, and only then did she know that the other person was "dead" after the other person's petite body stopped shaking from the huge pain.

Then rush in for first aid.

During this process, Deng Linxue remained silent, looking so out of place.

After receiving the president's charter, Chen Xiao immediately opened the cell door and rushed in.

"Child, everything can be over now, you..."

Heartbroken, she pushed aside the other person's hair that was falling in front of her eyes, and looked into her bright and determined eyes.

For a moment, the moment they met each other's eyes.

Chen Xiao was stunned, and couldn't even say the words "You can go on the road with peace of mind" later.

The hand that gently touches the other person's face can feel that the other person's body is still trembling, fearful, and suffering inhuman pain.

However, her eyes told Chen Xiao.

No.

I can keep going.

For a moment, Chen Xiao couldn't hand over the euthanasia consent form in his hand.

Finally, she bit her lip and said with difficulty: "If you choose to give up, I can sign it for you..."

Deng Linxue lowered her head, her body unable to move due to the huge pain, and even unable to respond.

But not responding was her answer after being patient.

Chen Xiao was stunned. She wanted to take the other person's hand directly and press it on the paper.

However, this is the other person's choice.

She had to choose to endure this kind of pain that even a strong-willed agent couldn't endure. She had to choose to endure this kind of pain that she didn't know how long it would last.

Deng Linxue will never forget the scene where her favorite father's head exploded in front of her.

She had actually been able to endure it several times before, but because of her father's excessive doting on her, her withdrawal reaction time was actively shortened time and time again.

It could have been extended, but because my father was soft-hearted, it became shorter each time.

If she could bear it, if she wouldn't be so willful.

If she can prolong the withdrawal reaction time by time.

Then, would my father not choose to commit suicide at the last moment because he saw the hope of success——

Everything is your own willfulness.
