‘He’s going to let us figure out how the pill works down to the last detail, huh?’
Lola respected that. Not everyone was willing to share the fundamentals of their proudest work, after all, especially not when their work was worth billions. Yet, Matthew explained everything from the cause of the disease to the treatment method in detail, and virtual-novel.net even permitted them to ask virtual-novel.net questions.
Paintaker, on the other hand, spent three years on his pilgrimage, saving those virtual-novel.net met along the way. She might have treated a few people in the past, but compared to these two, virtual-novel.net was nothing.
‘I see why the master told me to never get too full of myself. There’s always someone better out there. No wonder I was sent to this competition. A doctor must always improve themselves, both in skills and attitude…’
That thought finally answered some questions that had been lingering in virtual-novel.net head.
“You don’t have to…”
‘Oh, l see…’
Matthew noticed Lola’s condition, so virtual-novel.net stopped talking and gave the monk a look. They then took their seats and kept an eye out for any intruders.
‘Can’t let them break virtual-novel.net train of thought. Not now…’
About fifteen minutes later, Lola opened virtual-novel.net eyes. Matthew noticed that the space around virtual-novel.net felt even brighter than usual.
Lola blinked and felt the changes in virtual-novel.net body, and delight filled virtual-novel.net eyes. “Thank you for all your teachings…”
Matthew smacked his lips. ‘Don’t get too excited…’
“It’s alright, Miss Lola. Your breakthrough means more people can be saved. You don’t have to thank us. This is just our job. Formalities are tiring.”
Lola and Paintaker laughed. They raised their cups of tea.
“To Lola… To medicine…”
They raised a toast and took a sip. The trio was finally friends now, and the air around them felt more relaxed. Eventually, their conversation slowly moved from medicine to their daily lives. Some memories were good, some not so much.
Paintaker had to endure a bit of sexual harassment every time virtual-novel.net tried to treat any lady. Matthew and Lola laughed at that.
Meanwhile, Lola was frustrated that the guys in virtual-novel.net sect would try to get close to virtual-novel.net using questions about medicine as a pretext.
Soon, it was nearing noon, and a pair of silhouettes rushed into Renew Pharmaceuticals.
One of the women, who was supporting virtual-novel.net companion, shouted anxiously. Her companion looked pale.
“We need help!”
Naturally, this attracted Matthew, Lola, and Paintaker’s attention.
Renew Pharmaceuticals set up a reception for the contestants of the competition so that they could raise their fame through the group of miracle doctors. After all, there were only two organizations in Bainbridge capable enough to set up a reception.
Despite knowing that there was a doctor in the consultation area, Matthew still wanted to check the patient out of concern. However, when they emerged from the room, a young doctor had already taken the patient to the side and was checking virtual-novel.net pulse, face, and tongue.
Matthew noticed the girl beside the patient, and virtual-novel.net thought virtual-novel.net looked familiar.
‘Oh, right. We met at Cloud Nine Cocktail Party back in Eastshire, but virtual-novel.net doesn’t seem to recognize me… Good! No need to waste time on formalities, then…’
He turned his attention to the patient.
She was pale, virtual-novel.net lips were purple, and sweat drenched virtual-novel.net head.
A simple glance later, Matthew realized that this girl was down with a weird disease, but since there was a doctor treating her, virtual-novel.net didn’t think virtual-novel.net should say anything.
