Adam Jones drove to the First Hospital with a bellyful of anger.
Once out of the car, the aggressive aura around him didn't diminish, causing people nearby to instinctively distance themselves.
Every time he arrived at the emergency department, the suffocating busyness hit him in the face, making Adam's brow suddenly furrow.
"Hold him down hard, don't let him move about..."
A familiar voice, slightly out of breath, came from outside.
Adam turned to look and saw Elly Campbell kneeling on an emergency cart, trying to save a patient severely injured in a car accident.
Her hands, face, and clothes were smeared with the patient's blood, but the earnest and meticulous expression on her face made it impossible for Adam to look away.
He just stood there, motionless, staring at her until she, along with the patient, entered the resuscitation room.
By the time Elly came out of the resuscitation room, more than half an hour had passed.
