Virgil returned to his room with a heavy heart, and Lelia could tell that something was wrong with him.
"What did father say to you?"
Virgil said with some confusion: "Father has designated the hotel where David and Aluka will hold their wedding, and decided to hold it in Malaysia..."
"Southeast Asia?" Lelia was also a little confused: "Most of our family's weddings are held in Europe. Is David a Malaysian Chinese?"
"Absolutely not. If that's the case, I don't have any doubts. My father-in-law also said that he will personally handle all the details of the wedding. It's rare to see him care so much about the wedding. When Alluka got married for the first time...
"
Having said this, Virgil began to recall the expression of his father-in-law Mavis just now.
"No...I think it might not be that simple."
Lelia thought for a moment and said, "Since Father has already decided, don't pay too much attention to it. You don't have to do anything extra that he didn't ask you to do."
Seeing Lelia's expression, Virgil could only respond with silence.
In the years since Virgil and Lelia have been married, he has already confirmed a fact that he knows very well intellectually: Lelia has no love for him.
She chose to marry him just to tie herself to the chariot of the Faust family, or to increase her status in the family. Even she was different from what Virgil had imagined.
But even though he knew these things, Virgil still chose to be with her. Even though he knew that this was just a pure transaction, he still jumped in without hesitation.
It was just like when Klein gave him a choice between going to the isolation ward or staying in the Dark Demon Surgery Department as a rotating internship.
…
"How have you considered it? Should you go to the isolation ward or stay in the Dark Demon Surgery Department first?"
Vergil, who was sitting on the bed in the VIP ward, faced Klein's question, but did not answer him directly. Instead, he asked: "I want to know... what does Lelia think?"
Klein didn't expect that Virgil would ask this.
However, he quickly grasped Virgil's true thoughts.
"Lelia's thoughts are generally the same as mine. Everything we do is for the sake of the family."
"It does seem like her... character. Well, I understand. I will stay at Dark Magic Surgery for the time being and continue my internship, and I will not tell anyone what happened that night. No matter who asks me, my
The answer is that I met a ghoul that night."
Klein was very satisfied with Virgil's answer.
However, it is obvious that Virgil's answer also shows the fact that the only reason why he is willing to do things for the Faust family is for Lelia.
Virgil has been a man who lacked love since he was a child. His mother left him without saying goodbye when he was ten years old, and his father later became alcoholic due to alcoholism. His alcoholic father was almost different from his usual self.
After waking up, my father would cry.
So when his father died of cirrhosis of the liver, Virgil was not surprised at all.
It was during the darkest years after his father's death that he met Lelia.
In American schools, people prefer athletes to top academics. The outstanding players on the campus football team can often hug the beauties on campus. But Virgil is really not that good at sports.
What he is good at is just solving problems. On the school football team, he is often the one who lags behind.
An important reason that makes him unsociable is that the students around him regard smoking marijuana as lightly as smoking, which makes Virgil very disgusted. In the United States, the proportion of illegal drug use among college students is as high as 40% -
50% is an extremely scary number. He is often invited to parties where people smoke marijuana, but Virgil refuses without hesitation. In China, drug prohibition is a deep-rooted common sense, but in the United States, smoking marijuana and smoking cigarettes
There is not much difference anymore. Virgil, who regards marijuana as a savage beast, has become an alien. Therefore, he often suffers authentic American bullying.
At that time, the only person who appreciated him was Lelia. On campus, Virgil was excluded, and only Lelia was willing to communicate with him in depth. The two could often chat about history, religion, and music. He
He told Lelia that he would like to save money to travel to Eurasia in the future, even if he works while traveling. In particular, he really wants to visit his mother's hometown. Although, he still doesn't know where his mother is.
Where.
"Virgil, just stick to your idea. Your idea is correct."
What Lelia said to Virgil at that time greatly inspired him.
Therefore, he is willing to do dangerous things for Lelia. Even if he has to risk his life for this.
So, he continued his life in the Dark Demon Surgery Department.
However, he would also be a little worried. If he didn't wear a red mask at that time, would it bring any danger to himself? But after all, there is no treatment for this in the hospital, so worrying is useless. Since
It's useless to worry, so just don't think about it too much.
For Virgil, what he has to consider is to continue to explore why the person named "Li An" appears in the hospital.
This is very important to him now.
At present, he is almost certain that Mary's disappearance must be closely related to the person named Li An. However, without conclusive evidence, there is no way to attack Damon Dalen and Rutha Medel.
In the Dark Magic Surgery Department, the doctors were very respectful to Virgil. Everyone knew that he was now the future son-in-law of the Faust family, so naturally they did not hesitate to flatter him. In Virgil's past life, he had never been like this.
experience.
As an intern, he usually participated in doctor's training and observed some surgical operations. As he learned more knowledge, he became more and more impressed by the magic of the profession of supernatural doctor.
"The structure of the human soul is really amazing." Virgil, who was looking at a schematic diagram of the anatomy of the soul, couldn't help but marvel, "I didn't expect that humans really have a so-called soul."
"To be precise, they are living things." William explained to Virgil: "After living things die, most people will become ghosts. Ghosts are harmless ghosts that pose almost no life threat to humans. This is true in Europe.
It is reflected in many folklore."
"And if the soul is cursed, we will be needed to treat it!"
