“Bandage it with another coagulating dressing,” Genma told Ryouma. He sat back, shoving damp hair out of his face.
“Can he walk?” Usagi asked.
For answer, Abe immediately tried to stand. Ryouma put a hand on his chest and stopped him. “Let me finish.”
“As soon as he has feeling back, yes,” Genma said. “It’s not a deep wound. We just need to keep an eye on the bleeding. I’ll ask Fukuda what she knows about these things.”
“Good,” Usagi said with relief. Then she smacked Abe on the back of the head the same way she’d done Kasumi. “Who nearly gets killed by a leech? Moron.”
“Hey!” Abe complained. “I’m injured, Taichou.”
“Better stop while you’re ahead,” Genma advised. He looked up to find that Kakashi, Ginta, Kasumi, and Satomi were picking their way among the dead leeches. They seemed to collecting fish that must have died when Kakashi and Ginta electrified the water.
Kuroda and Kurenai were talking with Fukuda — or rather, Kuroda seemed to be grilling Fukuda while Kurenai listened.
Genma glanced up at Raidou, who immediately pressed a canteen into his hand. After a long swig, and another swipe of a shirt sleeve across his face, Genma shook his head. “I take it back, Taichou. Let’s do that training when we get back. Forest of Death is sounding really good right now.” |
