Chapter: 1953
The two of them arrived at the ICU floor, only to find that from the elevator entrance to the resting area and corridor, everyone was standing there.
Among them, half were Itō family members, and the other half were special task force members sent by the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department.
As soon as the elevator door opened, people outside looked at the elevator car in alarm, only to find Itō Nana and a strange man. Everyone was shocked beyond words.
Just then, a middle-aged woman rushed up quickly, surprised and asked, "Nana, how did you get here?!"
The speaker was Itō Emi, Yūki's older sister and Nana's aunt.
When Nana saw her, she hurriedly bowed and said, "Auntie, what's going on with Father?"
Itō Emi's expression flashed a hint of sadness as she sighed, "Brother is in stable condition. The doctor says he has already escaped life-threatening danger, but......"
Nana quickly followed up, "But what?!"
"'Ah...' Itō Emi sighed and said sincerely, 'Brother's legs are severely injured. The doctor had to amputate below the knee to save his life, and in the second half of his life, he'll probably be confined to a wheelchair or use a prosthetic leg......'"
"Uh?!" Tears welled up in Itō Nana's eyes.
Upon hearing that her father's legs were amputated, she felt heartache deep within.
She was well aware of her father's personality - one who always had to be strong and unwavering. The thought of him having to live the rest of his life in a wheelchair was indeed a devastating blow.
It was as if her beloved teacher, Yamamoto Ichirō, who spent his whole life dedicated to martial arts, but ended up bedridden due to underestimating Hayate's strength. Originally a skilled martial artist, he could only lie in bed struggling - such a blow was fatal.
Hayate was equally puzzled at this turn of events.
Itō Yūki's luck was also unknown whether it was good or bad.
To say that his luck was poor would be accurate, but he managed to scrape by with his life. Otherwise, he would probably have been long gone, leaving Itō Nana in the darkness between life and death."
It's true that his luck was good, but actually, if he had just delayed amputation by a few hours, as long as his leg was still intact, his Revival Elixir could have cured him.
But once it's already been amputated, there's nothing the Revival Elixir can do about it.
The Revival Elixir is indeed very powerful, but it doesn't possess the ability to regrow a severed limb.
What's more, Itō Yūki just got injured last night, and even if he delayed amputation by a few hours, it wouldn't have a significant impact.
After all, the damaged tissue needs time to decompose and become infected, and medical treatment with antibiotics is necessary; there are still several hours to spare for the window of opportunity.
If Itō Yūki had hesitated or considered his options, perhaps he could have delayed until Nana arrived with him.
However, he didn't expect that he would do it so straightforwardly and directly amputate his limb without hesitation.
Leaf guessed that the hospital thought Itō Yūki's affected limb no longer had any value to preserve, which is why they performed the amputation surgery so casually.
This can only be said that Itō Yūki's luck wasn't that great. JrNovels.com
