Chapter 524 Preparing to Escape
Dr. Otto was taken aback by what Strange said. He said with some displeasure: "What's wrong with the plan I designed?"
Otto is a proud person, he doesn't like others to question him, but Strange is an authority in this area, and he has to listen to what he says, so Dr. Otto is not in a good mood.
"This surgical plan did not take Penny's age into account. She is too young, and her ability to recover from trauma cannot be compared to that of an adult." Strange threw a few documents in front of Dr. Otto.
"I have participated in several nerve repair operations. Osborne Group's regenerative medicine is not a panacea. The recovery of damaged nerves is much more difficult than that of musculoskeletal."
"It can be said that there are thousands of miles of difference. Any problem with an important nerve will cause problems in the whole person's body." Strange pointed out the problem he found: "The wound is too big, and it must be used extremely Minimally invasive surgery will do."
Otto leaned on the back of the chair and pressed his temples to think about what Strange said, and he said slowly: "You mean to use (Strange microtrauma surgery?)"
Dr. Otto stared at Strange and said: "As far as I know, the best surgeon of this operation is standing in front of me, and he is questioning my medical plan. Ni turned it down."
Otto's words made Strange so embarrassed that he couldn't sit still. He was very uncomfortable being stared at by Dr. Otto, and finally got up and said, "I've talked too much, so I'm leaving."
When Strange was about to open the door to leave Otto's office, Dr. Otto's voice came from behind: "You have already rejected Penny, why do you still come? Do you want to give alms? Or is it that your conscience found out that you wanted to save her?" Who? Then enjoy the pleasure of being the savior?!"
Otto's words were sharp, which made Strange uncomfortable. He didn't look back, but gently leaned his forehead against the wooden door frame of Dr. Otto's office door.
"I don't want to save anyone, I just want to save myself." After speaking, Strange opened the door and turned to leave.
Dr. Otto sat down again and picked up the place where Strange pointed out the problem. Maybe he really should adjust the plan.

California State Prison.
"William Baker!" The prison guard shouted loudly as he walked in the corridor of the prison, holding a letter in his hand, he looked at the mail address on the envelope and said, "There is a letter from the Osborne Group in New York State Medical Center, addressed to Penny Baker."
Every letter that comes to the prison will be checked by the prison, but generally it will be handed over to the prisoner. Because cutting off the contact between criminals and their families is not conducive to the reformation of criminals.
As long as the letter is not illegal and there are no contraband, the prison will be handed over to the prisoner.
As far as William Baker is concerned, he was only imprisoned for robbery and wounding, and he was not considered a serious criminal. He was usually released after two years in prison.
Moreover, he was relatively honest after being imprisoned, and the prison guards did not make things difficult for him in prison.
When the prison guard who delivered the letter walked to the door of William's prison, the strong middle-aged man was already leaning against the iron fence and waiting for the prison guard to arrive.
"Your daughter's letter. Read it carefully." The prison guard patted William on the shoulder when he handed the letter to him.
This made William feel a little bad, in fact he felt bad when he heard the prison guard read the mail address as Osborne Medical Center.
Because he knew very well that in this prison only his daughter Penny Jr. would send letters from New York every month. And he also knew what was wrong with his daughter.
It's a very dangerous condition and it costs a lot of money if surgery is required. He had heard of the names of Almond Central Hospital and Doctor Strange.
It costs a lot of money to see a doctor in this kind of high-end private hospital, and inviting Dr. Strange to perform surgery is even more expensive. Don't even think about it for less than half a million dollars.
And half a million dollars is an astronomical figure for the vast majority of American families. William_Baker is just an ordinary construction worker.
He had to go to great lengths to get enough money for Strange's surgery. But the result is obvious, he was arrested, and Penny went to the orphanage.
As William's only spiritual support, Penny is his greatest motivation to live in the world.
He couldn't wait to open the envelope and take out the letter paper. It was a thick letter, and it was obviously impossible for Penny to write it.
Penny was only six years old, she couldn't spell many words, and she couldn't write such a long letter.
As William expected, in this four-page letter, only the letter with more than 300 words at the end of the pink letterhead in the first chapter was written by Penny.
She wrote briefly about her life at the Southern Cross orphanage. Including playing with friends and a new carer named Thor who finally fixes the TV. Let her watch SpongeBob SquarePants again.
So she didn't keep the agreement and didn't leave the Children's Day candy to her father, but gave it to Thor, and she hoped that her father would forgive her.
At the same time, he also said a lot of good things about Thor, and also said that he passed out while watching TV (seeing this, William's heart twitched). Then Thor took her to the hospital and so on.
After that, she wrote very jumpily that she wanted her father to take her to catch jellyfish after he came out (because of the influence of SpongeBob SquarePants).
At the end of the letter, the end of the letter was written a bit without beginning and end, and many words were misspelled and there were grammatical errors.
But this does not affect William's repeated viewing. What he dreaded finally happened.
He was a little afraid to read the long letter written on regular letter paper below, he was afraid that he would see what he least wanted to see.
But he still trembled and opened the letter paper. This is a formal letter written in Thor's name, but actually drafted by Li Jie.
In order to show formality and sincerity, Li Jie used handwriting instead of computer printing. He briefly talked about Penny's condition, and told William that Penny's condition could no longer be delayed.
After obtaining the signature of the head of the orphanage, the Osborne Medical Center will perform surgery on Penny in the near future.
The cost of the operation will be jointly borne by the charitable fund under the Osborne Group and the charitable fund established by Marvel.
And at the end of the letter, a copy signed by the director of the orphanage was attached.
Legally speaking, William does not have the custody of Penny, and there is no need for Li Jie and Thor to send him such a letter.
But as fathers, they felt it was necessary to tell William.
William Baker gripped the letter tightly. He is very anxious now. Li Jie's letter clearly stated how dangerous Penny was.
Dr. Strange declined surgery, which will be performed by Dr. Otto at Osborne Medical Center.
I am now in a prison in California, and Penny is far away in New York. If the operation fails, needless to say, William can guess what the consequences will be.
And this operation is very risky! In other words, William may never see Penny's last side again!
William Baker took a deep breath. He glanced at the prison he was in. No matter what the price was, he would go to New York to see Penny!
Even if the rest of my life is locked in prison forever!

On the vast ocean, a 200,000-ton tanker is cleaving the waves. This is exactly the tanker belonging to Zhang Tong, the Mandarin.
Now he is in the captain's room via satellite signal and video calls with people thousands of kilometers away.
And the caller was Dr. Ethan, that nice guy and scientist. And now the red light in his eyes from time to time looks so strange.
