Title: n°12 Family Precepts of Fresh Blood
Guy: Man, this is heavy...
That's a dissection room down there. Be careful.
Since this guy that got executed yesterday doesn't have any relatives
we've gotta do all this work so he can serve one more purpose before he goes to the grave.

Baptist: The dissection will now begin.
First, please offer a prayer to the deceased's soul.

[So I guess that's what they're doing here]
Page 65:
Baptist: By dissecting corpses, we, the Sanson Family, gain a deeper understanding of the structure of the human body
and have striven to elevate our execution technique.
Page 66:
Baptist: Charles, I will not allow another failure like the one the other day.
So now, return to being a beginner once more and drive these techniques cultivated by our family for generations into your mind and body.
Louis, as you are only nine years old, this will be your first time. But eventually you, too, will be aiding your older brother as an executioner.
So watch and touch with care and learn the structure of the human anatomy.
Louis: Yes, Father!
Baptist: Now then, we will be making the first incision in the abdomen.
I ask that you two each take a scalpel.

[Then you take a sledgehammer and...]

Louis: !?
Charles: GEHOH
GEHOH
Anne: Enough childishness. Adjust yourself to it, Charles!!!
You'll always be assaulted by that rotting smell whenever innards are exposed, will you not?!!
Charles: Y...
Yes, Grandmother...!!!

Baptist: -----...In the beginning of the 17th Century, the Englishman William Havey first discovered
that blood is circulated throughout the body by the internal organ known as the "heart".
During a beheading, when thicker arteries are severed, blood will spurt out in sync with the palpitation of the heart...
A human has 5 to 6 pintes of blood.
At a normal rate of pulsation, 5 to 6 pintes of blood circulate around the entire body in one minute.
Put simply, all of the blood will circulate the body in one minute.
20 pour cent of the body's blood will be circulating in the head.
Following that logic, the amount of time it would take for the lethal amount of 2 pintes to drain from the body as a result of severing the arteries in the neck would be...
Page 71:
Louis: I... I know, Father.
In two minutes, if the hemorrhage continues, the pulse will stop, yes?
Baptist: Precisely.
But if one pierces a blade into the spinal column precisely, the criminal's suffering will be over in an instant.
Anne: What are you doing, Charles? Quickly, remove the heart!!!
Charles: ...!!!
Page 72:
Louis: Father, this cold, wet texture......
It feels like I'm touching frog eggs in a pond.
Charles: Upuh...
Page 73:
Charles: ------!!!?
Anne: You mustn't vomit! Swallow it!!!
Do you want to make a careless blunder on the execution stand with the eyes of a crowd on you?!!!!
Page 74:
Woman: Um, sir...
Someone: !!!
Woman: There is a woman upstairs that would very much like to be treated...
But it is already past examination time, shall I sent her away?
Anne: Do not!!
Though we were starting to be reduced, in the form of medical care using the techniques and knowledge cultivated through executions, the Sanson Family can thrive in this land.
Go up to the examination room at once and take a look at this woman, Jean-Baptist.

Baptist: There will be some pain, please try to put up with it------
Page 76:
Baptist: This should improve the clogging in the blood vessels.
If you get some rest, your dizziness and headaches should go away.
Louis: Please press this onto your wound, madame.
It will stop the bleeding right away.
Woman: What a fine successor you have.
You should be proud, Monsieur.
Baptist: ......Bloodletting is the act of extracting old blood
so new blood will be made and circulate the body.
Thus improving your overall health.
Asterisk: *Bloodletting is a medical treatment used up until the end of the 19th Century, and is no longer in general use.
Page 77:
Baptist: Washing one's hand of things that do not serve a purpose
is vital to maintaining the health of a working system.
