Chapter 904: Vitality, turning around
Lin Chujiu couldn’t point the sharp arrow at the child. She chose to believe it and chose to go in with the child. If there will be an anomaly in the house, she will not hesitate to shoot the adults, but what about the child?
Lin Chujiu took a look and smiled.
Although she has no strength now, it was not a problem to take down a six or seven-year-old child.
However, as soon as she walked into the house, Lin Chujiu knew that there was nothing wrong with her choosing to believe in the little boy.
After walking to the door, she smelled a strong smell of medicine. The room was small, and she can see the end at a glance. There was no other adult in the room except for a patient lying on the bed.
As soon as she stepped into the room, she heard the person on the bed say: “Rongrong, why did you come back? Are they bullying you again?”
The voice sounded like a man, but he was weak, and he didn’t need to look at Lin Chujiu to know that he was seriously ill.
“Father, no one bullied me. I saw a beautiful big sister on the road. I brought her back.” Once inside the house, the little boy let go of Lin Chujiu’s hand and ran over.
“What big sister?” The man seemed very strange and struggled to get up. The little boy was very obedient. Although his strength was very small, he still used his strength to help the man sit up.
The bed was on the innermost side of the room, Lin Chujiu could see the other party, but the other party couldn’t see her when he was lying on the bed, he had to sit up.
“Is the girl a foreigner?” The man sat up, and when he saw Lin Chujiu, his dim eyes flashed with surprise.
“I was avoiding my enemies, and accidentally I broke into your town. I found out later on that I had no strength. When I was looking for a way out, I ran into your child.” Lin Chujiu took a step forward so that the other party could look at her and believe her words. However, the other party only took one look and said, “The girl must have come to town on purpose, right?”
“I……”
“Girl, don’t lie to me. Stone Town has become famous in the past 2 years. Most people would never come to the town, even if it is to avoid their enemies.” When people arrive in Stone Town, it will be worse than meeting enemies. No one will come to Stone Town to escape.
“Ahem…” Lin Chujiu looked embarrassed, but she has one good thing, that was, she knows how to do practical things.
Lin Chujiu readily admitted: “I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to lie. Your town is too dangerous for a foreigner like me.”
“I understand what you mean, girl, don’t blame yourself. Rongrong and I…will not embarrass you, nor will we tell your whereabouts. However, if it is possible, you should go out earlier, don’t stay here. It’s not suitable for foreigners to stay here for long. The longer you stay here, the weaker your body will be.” The man kindly persuaded.
It seemed that he was afraid that Lin Chujiu would not believe it. The little boy nodded vigorously from the side, his head was a little bit like a chicken eating rice.
Lin Chujiu couldn’t help but burst out laughing: “Thank you two for your generous rescue, I have caused you trouble.”
“You’re welcome, girl stay here until the evening, and then go out in the middle of the night when there is no one outside.” The man said weakly: “I’m not feeling well, I can’t entertain the girl, please help yourself.”
After finishing speaking, the man was about to lie down, and the little boy continued to use his little strength to help the man to lie down, looking very cute.
Seeing this scene, Lin Chujiu’s heart softened inexplicably, and she said without thinking, “I’m a doctor, can you let me see your illness?”
The man froze and looked at Lin Chujiu dully, while the little boy’s eyes lit up: “Sister is a doctor?”
Lin Chujiu was puzzled, and nodded cautiously: “I’m a doctor, is there a problem?” This was the first time she offered to help without being forced by the medical system. Do they think she was a liar?
“No problem, of course, there is no problem, but there has been no doctor in the town for many years.” The man came back to his senses, a gleam of light flashed in his cloudy eyes, and he looked at Lin Chujiu eagerly.
The little boy, Rongrong, kept nodding, and looked at Lin Chujiu adoringly: “I have never seen a doctor before, I begged the Uncle Mayor to invite a doctor for my father, but he that doctors are noble people, not the kind of us can afford. They won’t treat people like us. It turns out that my sister is a doctor, and my sister is so amazing.”
The admiration in the little boy’s eyes did not contain a trace of impurity, which made Lin Chujiu feel ashamed for a moment.
A doctor like her was unwilling to treat patients without being forced by the medical system. What was there to admire?
Lin Chujiu said with a little bit of embarrassment: “Not all doctors are good. Doctors are only good if they can cure your father’s illness.”
“Sister is a doctor. She will cure my father’s illness. Sister, please help my father.” The little boy ran up to Lin Chujiu and was about to kneel as soon as he bent his legs. Lin Chujiu reacted quickly, and took the first step to support her: “Don’t kneel, you saved my life.”
It was already bustling outside, if she came in one step later, she might be discovered by the townspeople.
“I saved my sister, not because I want my sister to save my father.” The little boy didn’t insist on kneeling, but he emphasized seriously.
When Lin Chujiu heard this, she blushed.
Sure enough, she was not as good as a child. Children never care about gains and losses when doing things. Only adults like her care about gains and losses. Always calculating sacrifices and gains.
“Sister is wrong, please don’t be angry with me.” Lin Chujiu knelt and apologized seriously to the little boy.
“Rongrong is not angry, sister… Please help my father. Father has been ill for a long time. He has been drinking the medicine given by the uncle in the town, but he has not recovered.” The little boy shook his head with a puzzled expression. Pulling Lin Chujiu’s hand as he begged.
“Okay, my sister will go see your father right now.” Lin Chujiu stood up and walked to the bed in small steps.
“Girl, I have caused you trouble.” The man said cautiously.
“It’s just checking your condition, it won’t cause any trouble.” Before the diagnosis, she can’t guarantee that the other party will be cured.
Lin Chujiu sat down by the bed and motioned for the man to stretch out his hand.
The medical system was still in collapse and can’t be used at all, but her pulse-taking level was already good enough. It was not a problem to diagnose ordinary diseases. Although the man looks seriously ill, it was just a cold. But because he didn’t get timely medical treatment, the disease got more serious.
When Lin Chujiu was feeling her pulse, the little boy kept looking at her with wide eyes without blinking. There was hope and worry in his eyes.
As soon as Lin Chujiu withdrew her hand, the little boy asked eagerly, “Sister, is my father alright?”
Lin Chujiu didn’t answer right away but glanced at the man. Seeing the man nodded, and said: “Your father’s illness is very serious, and the medicine you took before didn’t help.”
“Then…sister, will something happen to my dad? Can you save my dad?” The little boy looked at Lin Chujiu cautiously, with tears in his innocent eyes, as if he would cry whenever Lin Chujiu said he couldn’t be saved.
Lin Chujiu wanted to tell the little boy that his father would be fine, but… …
She dare not say such a thing now!
