The fourth development room of the Lineforte Group is actually just an empty shell in name only. Except for Ling, the nominal director, there is no real employee. Irina Lineforte only proposed this intention. As for when
It is not something that Ling can know if the development room can be truly established. Anyway, for her, the work location has not changed, and the work content has not changed. As long as the funds are paid, she does not care about the details.
The peaceful days lasted for a week. One day, guerrillas affiliated with the Guerrilla Association came to Luray Institute of Technology and knocked on the door of the research laboratory.
Vivien Leigh, a B-level guerrilla who uses a broad sword as a weapon, is someone Zhou Ling once met when she was disguised as 'Mr. Lian'.
"Is this Dr. Astre's laboratory? Is Dr. Astre here?"
"I'm not a doctor yet, but I should be the one you're looking for. Is there anything you want from Miss Guerrilla?"
Ling unlocked the force-guided door magnet, allowing the guerrillas to enter.
"Can you come to the association with me? There is a kid named Ashuka Baid who is eager to find you."
"Ash?"
Hearing the name of her junior brother, Ling finally put down the paper and pen in her hands. She stuffed the unfinished copy into the folder, took off her white coat and replaced it with a suit that had faded after half a year of wearing it.
She walked out of the room and met the partisans.
Ling followed Vivien Leigh to the Lulei branch of the Guerrilla Association, and at the reception window, a hurried voice that sounded as if she was about to cry came from the guidance communication.
Directed communications from Rackwell via the Guerrilla Association as a relay.
"Axiu, what happened?" Ling asked Yaxiu what happened after letting Yaxiu calm down for a while.
"Senior sister! Is this you, Senior Sister Ling? I finally contacted you. My mother...my mother is dying!"
"Slow down, tell me, what's going on?"
"I don't know either. My mother suddenly coughed up blood this morning and then collapsed. I immediately went to invite the priest from Qiyao Church, but the priest left without saying anything. What should I do?"
Ash's explanation of the situation gave Ling some understanding of the seriousness of the matter. According to her understanding of the plot, Ms. Wylie Jakabaid should have been seriously ill not long ago, and the magical power of Qiyao Church can only cure
There are some traumas, and it seems that there is nothing that can be done about serious diseases.
Ling only knows how to kill people, but not how to save others. When Yaxiu came to seek help from her, he simply sought medical treatment in a desperate condition.
Although she is a little reluctant to leave the job at hand, Ling will not really leave this kind of thing alone. After all, Ash is the last remaining Hamelian besides Levi and Joshua, so he can help wherever he can.
, she will still try to help as much as possible.
After leaving the Guerrilla Association, Ling left the city and went to the Fire Spirit Cave where the Purple Riding God Sektor was waiting. Taking the train from Luray to Rackwell was too slow, and it would take less than six hours to make it there. And using the Elf
Teleporting from Huoling Cave to Yueling Cave can save a lot of time.
That afternoon, when Ling hurried to Rackwell's old apartment "Freedom Community", Ash, whose eyes were swollen from crying, rushed over immediately when he saw Ling's arrival. In the past seven years, Wylie Jakabaid has been loyal to Ash
She has done everything a mother should do. Although she is an adoptive mother, she is closer to Yaxiu than her biological mother. It is human nature to be intolerable when encountering major life events such as birth, old age, illness and death.
Ling walked up to Ms. Kabaid who was resting on the bed, turned on all her powers, and sensed the situation in her body. Then, a malignant tumor the size of a baby's fist was found in her body.
"Miss Ling, I didn't expect you to come here specially."
"Well, Auntie, your situation is very troublesome. It shouldn't be a matter of a day or two to get sick, right?"
Ling was not a doctor, so she could not save people. Professional matters should be left to experts. While Huailijia could still move, Ling suggested that she go to see a doctor immediately.
Ms. Kabide did not intend to force herself to seek medical treatment at the beginning. Malignant tumors are still terminal diseases in this world, and she cannot be saved even if she spends huge medical expenses. She also wanted to leave her savings to Ash for use. For this reason, she even wrote her will
It's all already written.
"It's not necessarily hopeless. I think Auntie, you can still save her."
The first person who can perform tumor removal surgery is the Principality of Remifilia, a major medical country, and the other option is the Affiliated Hospital of St. Ursula Medical University in the Crossbell Autonomous Prefecture. The Principality of Remifilia, a major medical country in the north
It has the leading medical technology on the continent of Semlia. However, the procedures for going abroad are very troublesome, and patients are the ones who cannot be delayed. In contrast, the Crossbell Autonomous Prefecture is a vassal state of the Erebonia Empire.
People who want to go there can come and go freely without going through strict censorship.
"The regular boats to the Principality of Remifilia have been out of service these days and you may have to wait for a week, but the technology of Ursla Medical University in Crossbell Autonomous Prefecture is not bad. And I also know people there.
Let’s go to the train station and take the Transcontinental Railway now, and we’ll arrive early tomorrow morning.”
Huailijia finally accepted Ling's suggestion, and the three of them, including Ash, packed up and set off.
Ling has not been to the Crossbell Autonomous Prefecture since the failure of the Golden Trial in the Star Spirit Cave half a year ago. On the one hand, it is to avoid suspicion and make the Qiyao Church pay less attention to the abnormal events that occurred half a year ago. On the other hand, it is
, in order to avoid certain people, she did not really want to return to the hometown where she was born.
The station hall is at the southernmost end of Crossbell City. After getting off the train, you can leave the city without passing through the downtown area of Crossbell. Ling was a little relieved.
After getting off the train, a group of three people took Crossbell's unique guided bus to the Affiliated Hospital of St. Ursula Medical University.
Wylie Jakabaid was admitted to the ward almost immediately. Ling paid a lot of hospitalization expenses out of her own pocket. After a day of consultation, the doctors at the hospital determined that surgery was necessary. And they told Ash,
Due to the delay of the disease, the probability of survival after the operation is less than 30%.
"Ling Astrey, right? This shouldn't be the first time we've met, right?"
The attending physician with ice-blue hair is an old acquaintance of Ling. When she appeared in front of Joachim Jonta this time, Ling did not disguise herself but appeared as a family member of the patient. Her image should be completely different from the past, but she
He was still recognized.
"How did you recognize it?"
"As soon as I came to the hospital, I asked the nurse about Ward 304. I want to see Xiao Tio, right? She has been discharged from the hospital before. She should be escorted by two senior investigators, Guy Bannings and Ronald Griffin.
On the way back home. But before that, I was already sure it was you."
After hearing the news that Tio had been discharged from the hospital, Ling was relieved and a little disappointed. However, she quickly calmed down and listened to Joachim continue to speak.
Joachim took out a thick book from the table. The familiar cover was "Lectures on Astre".
"Dr. Astrey, I am your loyal reader. The reason why I can tell the difference is precisely because the content in this book is completely beyond the level that modern people should master. Such a large amount of knowledge suddenly appeared in front of mankind.
After reading, I felt that familiar yet enlightened feeling. I will definitely not be mistaken as I continue to take Cang Zhizhi. You must have seen the truth, right!?"
Ling frowned slightly at Joachim whose tone suddenly became fanatical.
"Sorry, I lost my temper a little." Joachim pushed up his glasses.
"Dr. Astre, you are really amazing. I have also reached that state once, as if I knew everything and knew all the mysteries in the world. But when the effect of the medicine wears off, all that remains is a hazy feeling.
Vague impressions. Even if you can occasionally recall some fragments of descriptions and conclusions, they have no practical value at all. How can you bring precious knowledge back to reality?" Joasim Jonta's face was full of curiosity.
And desire, that kind of pure curiosity, is a very rare type among humans.
"You made a mistake. Like you, I can only remember the conclusion of fragments. All the arguments I made are the result of deduction using the knowledge known to mankind. It is not enough to know what is going on. It is not enough to know what is going on.
So it is the proof of human wisdom."
"I see, then you are truly a genius."
Ling was a little embarrassed to be flattered by Yoasim. She coughed twice and brought the topic back on track.
Joachim was one of the doctors who participated in the consultation with Ash's mother, and his conclusion was no different from other doctors.
"The patient's body is already too weak. Even if the tumor is removed, it will be difficult for all aspects of the body's physical capabilities to return to their previous state."
"Can't you even think of a way to improve the survival rate?"
"That's not true. People who have practiced Dou Qi or magic have far better physical fitness than ordinary people. Generally, they are not that easy to get sick. Not to mention terminal illnesses, they almost never even have headaches or colds."
After listening to Yoasim's words, Ling nodded. Except for the leader Liujia Yuan Longya Loulan who was accidentally killed by Valut, no strong person in this world has ever been heard of being seriously ill.
"But ordinary people are different. Moreover, this female patient is too old and has no time to practice fighting spirit. Therefore, there is only one way left to improve her physical fitness, and that way, Dr. Astre, you should also
It’s only when you have a good idea.”
After seeing Joachim Jontara open the drawer and take out a bottle of blue pills and put them on the table, Ling sighed.
"This bottle of Blue Wisdom is my improved version. The side effects are much smaller than before. There is currently a lack of clinical trial products. If the patient agrees, I can provide it to her free of charge as a special medicine."
She should have thought of it earlier. This man seems to regard true wisdom as a panacea.
"Let's do it." Ling nodded.
In order to survive, she fell into the arms of the devil. Ling had no intention of preventing this from happening. Compared with the result of death, the small side effects of taking True Wisdom were almost nothing.
Huailijia's tumor removal surgery was successful, and her postoperative recovery was astonishingly fast. Most doctors called her a medical miracle.
The little blue tablets used as oral medicines did not blatantly use the name Zhen Zhi Zhi Zhi, but were renamed with a scientific name that looked high-end. Under Ling's warning, oral medicines have serious side effects.
Yaxiu and her mother were verbally informed by Joachim. After the operation, they would need to be hospitalized for several weeks for observation. Ling also informed Yaxiu at Sunday school so that he could stay with his mother with peace of mind.
around.
Ling, who had been busy for the mother and son for several days, finally planned to leave for Lulei. However, the appearance of a couple disrupted her rhythm.
"Congratulations, mother and son are safe. He is a healthy boy."
When the obstetrics and gynecology nurse left the delivery room and handed the red-haired little guy into the hands of the red-haired mother, Ling stopped because of sudden heart palpitations.
Sophia Hivas, she knew this person. Until four years ago, as Renee Hivas, she should have been acting coquettishly in this woman's arms.
"Little sister, have we met somewhere?"
A man with the same violet hair and amber eyes as Ling walked up to Ling.
"No, it's the first time we meet. I'm Ling Astre. What a cute boy, what's his name?"
"Ah, I have heard that you are the famous scholar in Luray. I am Harold Hayworth. He is my little baby Colin."
Harold, who became a father again after several years, did not pay too much attention to Ling. He was completely attracted by the little red-haired baby.
Didn't recognize it.
That's right, after so many years, no matter how sad they were, they should have calmed down.
What's more, Ling's current appearance does not match her real age at all. Ling looks to be at least thirteen years old, while Renee in the memories of Mr. and Mrs. Harold should still be the child who was only five years old.
Lost?
Melancholy?
Hate it?
Sad?
Although Ling deliberately did not recognize each other, they really passed each other like this. She seemed to have fallen into the abyss and heard the sound of her heart breaking that should have been frozen long ago.
"It's time to go." Ling muttered to herself, and left the hospital in a daze. Instead of getting on the guide bus, she started wandering aimlessly.
Ease yourself, at least, this can make her feel a little better.
