我也得回去干活了。

Yes, of course, you must.

那当然了。

Do you want me to get you anything?

有需要我的地方吗？

No, I'm fine. Just do what Edwin asks.

没有，没事。听从艾德文吩咐就好。

I have been through the court medical records with a fine tooth comb, sir.

And were your findings satisfactory?

结果是否尽如人意呢？

With regret, I would have to say they were not. How so?

Gaius is a great man, thorough and dedicated¹. But?

盖乌斯是个伟大的人，兢兢业业。 但是？

His methods are outdated². He has failed to keep up with the latest developments. This has led to a number of errors.

他的疗法太过时。跟不上日新月异的医疗发展。于是便犯下了小差错。

Gaius has served me well for 25 years.

盖乌斯服务于我有25年了。

And one cannot blame him for the infirmity those years have brought. Age can be a terrible curse.

时间催人老，无可厚非。岁月不饶人。

Perhaps it is time to lighten his burdens. Have you given any more thought to my offer?

也许是时候减轻他的重负了。你是否认真考虑过我的聘任？

Yes. I have considered it very carefully. Allow me some time to do the same.

是的。我有认真考虑。给我些时间想想。

You heard what he said. Gaius is old, he makes mistakes.
