Third Case [Voice]

[modernholmes]

[He begins by speaking in a quiet voice, almost to himself.]

Ah, this is much more painful than I anticipated.

[Shinichi is silent for a moment, then speaks up a a very calm and controlled voice.]

I have been bitten by a snake.  A Western Diamondback Rattlesnake is my best guess based on the appearance of the animal.  Crotalus Atrox.

Is anyone

[Ran is currently back in the wagon, trying to organize the supplies recently received.]

Shinichi?! Where did you get bitten?! I'll come get you if no one else gets to you first!

My left foot. I'm not far from the wagon, but it would be difficult to make it back by myself.

I'll come get you, then. [Ran looks behind her for a moment, then looks to the side.]

...where did you put the first aid kit? We have one, don't we? [Flatstares.] Or did you not put one together yet?

Oi. Like I would forget something like that. West side of the wagon, near the ammunition.

I can help you and remove the venom. Where are you?

West side of the main campsite. Near the fire.

Recommended treatment for snakebites with no option of a hospital is to allow it to bleed freely for thirty seconds followed by wrapping the affected limb in a pressure bandage. Suction devices can be utilized, so long as they do not cut into the surface of the injury. A pressure bandage should be applied and the victim should be kept calm with the affected limb held below the level of the heart.

Do not move.

[Laura clicks the communicator off and comes to find him, she is carrying the first aid kit from her own wagon. He is easy to spot as his face is white.]

I will get you back to your wagon and treat you there.

Thank you for that. [The teen is obviously maintaining a careful control over his voice and body language.]
