Implementing the scientific spirit of seeking truth from facts is a good thing for doctors. Angel was not prepared to talk more about this topic, but took out a leather scroll from his arms.
There is a picture drawn on the leather scroll, which shows a black snake coiling around a long cone.
"Have you ever seen this picture?"
"I've never seen it before. Which family's emblem is this?" Shirley asked doubtfully.
Angel smiled silently and put away the scroll. Then he looked at Shirley and asked in a low voice: "Last question, Doctor Shirley, have you heard of Pocrates?"
Shirley glanced at Angel curiously. She felt more and more curious about this strange visitor in the snowy night. The questions he asked were stranger and weirder than the last, and they were very out of touch. She didn't know what they meant.
Pocrates... Shirley pondered for a moment, as if she had heard this term somewhere before, but couldn't remember it.
At this moment, a uniformed man wrapped in a black velvet cloak suddenly rushed in from outside, interrupting the tea conversation between the two.
Shirley stood up and looked at the person: "Night officer?"
"Haimen night duty!" The man in uniform nodded to identify himself, with an anxious look on his face: "Doctor Shirley, come with me quickly! There was an accident at Taluo Harbor. The cruise ship on duty capsized, and a large number of injuries require first aid!"
Shirley's face straightened and she quickly packed up the medical kit: "I understand! In addition to drowning, was anyone injured?"
"Yes! Many people are injured! There are still bleeding in several major arteries. All the doctors who can be called nearby have gone there!" Ye Qian quickly replied, apologizing to Angel as he spoke. He thought Angel was a patient, but suddenly
It's not etiquette to disturb others' medical treatment, but there's nothing you can do about it. Compared with this healthy-looking young man, the injured in the harbor need more first aid.
When Shirley heard this, she immediately picked up the scalpel, sutures, and alcohol.
"By the way! In addition to these, there are also burn patients!" Ye Qian added.
Are there even burns? Shirley made a move and looked at Yeqin doubtfully: "Could it be a war?"
Ye Qin didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and waved his hands and said: "There was no war, it was just that the cruise ship broke off from the middle keel and started to burn... It's strange to say it. I asked the colleagues who rescued me and they said that the ship suddenly broke off without warning.
When I looked at it from a distance on the shore, it looked like it had been cut open by someone... But who could cut open such a big ship? I guess it must have been in disrepair."
Shirley didn't pay special attention to the cause of the accident, but continued to hold the first-aid equipment needed for burn patients, and then packed the medical kit as quickly as possible.
"Okay, let's go!" Shirley said to Ye Qin solemnly. It was only then that she suddenly remembered that there was a strange visitor in the clinic.
There was an apology on Shirley's face: "I'm sorry, sir, you heard me, I have to go to the emergency room..."
The implication is that people are being driven away.
Angel took a sip of Wimton's milk tea, picked up his hat and put it on his head, and said with a smile: "It's getting late, I should go. Also, the milk tea is delicious, thank you for the hospitality."
After Angel finished speaking, he slowly walked into the heavy snow, and finally disappeared at the end of the darkness.
Until this strange visitor disappeared from sight, Shirley suddenly remembered the last question he asked: "Have you heard of Pocrates?"
Pocrates seemed familiar to her when she heard it before. However, she had never thought of it, but now she suddenly remembered that she had attended a class taught by Professor Caroline, and she still remembered that Caroline seemed to have mentioned Pocrates.
After all, it is said to be a holy place, but it has been many years since she graduated. It has been too long and her memory is blurred. She only remembers some outlines, and it seems that Pocrates is also related to the "Oath of Physician's Admission".
Shirley remembered that the man had asked about "The Doctor's Oath" before. Are the two related?
When Shirley was still thinking about the connection between the two, she was interrupted by the night guard, who pulled her and ran towards Tarot Harbor. Shirley also remembered that there were patients waiting for her to rescue, and the thoughts that were still surging outside were completely eliminated by her.
swept out of my mind.
The night clerk pulled her away and sighed: "Fortunately, your clinic has not closed yet. Otherwise, by the time I ran for two hours to the medical school in the city center to pick up people, all the patients would have died. This city is too big.
, is also a kind of worry.”
…
Angel, who did not hear Shirley's answer, felt a little regretful. However, he never thought that a random clinic doctor he met would know about Pocrates, so his regret was not heavy.
On the contrary, it was the Haimen Night Guard who suddenly paid a visit, which made him a little concerned.
Haimen's duty patrol boats often wander around the bay area. He also saw it a few days ago. How could the nearly 20-meter-long duty boat have its keel suddenly broken due to disrepair?
Angel has been on a ship and watched documentaries about shipbuilding on Earth, so he knows very well that for such a large ship, the keel must be the most carefully inspected part. If there is a problem, it will be discovered immediately. So it is impossible.
It was in disrepair and could only have been an accident.
Angel didn't know what the specific accident was. But he had a guess. According to what the night guard said, the duty ship was cut off in the middle, as if it was cut off... The night guard thought it was impossible, but he didn't think it was possible.
impossible.
You must know that the time for the Extraordinary Gathering is getting closer and closer, and if a group of wild people who have power and have not been cultivated by the orthodox wizard organization act unscrupulously, it will inevitably be a disaster.
Angel guessed that maybe a wizard apprentice who participated in the extraordinary gathering took action, and he was also the kind of lunatic who was afraid of chaos in the world.
It had been snowing for only half an hour, and a thin layer of snow accumulated on the road, like a white velvet carpet, extending into the depths of darkness.
Suddenly, Angel stopped.
Under a street lamp, a faint light illuminated an area of several meters. Under this little light, the snowflakes were like fluttering catkins flying all over the sky.
Bata, bah, bah—
There was a sound of footsteps coming from the front, and at the same time, a huge and strange magical force came over.
Angel stood under the streetlight, his expression unchanged, he just looked forward quietly.
The first thing Angel saw was a pair of shiny black leather boots, followed by dark blue linen trousers, a shiny black leather belt, an ocher plaid vest, and a stylish black leather jacket with rivets.
The other person was wearing a wide-brimmed soft hat and seemed to be holding a cigarette in his mouth, emitting scattered sparks.
Angel looked at the visitor quietly without saying a word. However, behind him, the original snowy night scene became blurry and floating. At the same time, strange music fell from the sky with a creepy frequency.
"Ah, ah, ah, it turns out to be an illusion type. It's really rare..." The voice of the visitor was a very pleasant magnetic bass, but the words he spoke had a frivolity that was inconsistent with the bass.
While talking, the person took off the cigarette from the corner of his mouth, flicked it, and drew an arc. Finally, it fell into the pale snow, with the cigarette butt burning with scattered sparks, still lingering for the last time.
"Who are you?" Angel's eyes flashed with a faint light.
The visitor smiled and replied: "I am..."
Suddenly, he took a few steps back: "Music illusion? I almost got into your trap."
A trace of surprise flashed in Angel's eyes. When he spoke, he did use "Wanyin Illusion".
However, when he secretly constructed the illusion node to block his thinking, the other party discovered it and avoided the influence of the illusion node in those seconds.
It can be seen that the reaction level of the other party's body and mind has reached an extremely high level.
"Is it the blood side?" Angel thought to himself.
"That's so unfriendly. I just came to see the person who disturbed Kulakuka. I didn't expect him to be an orthodox wizard apprentice." The visitor murmured in a low voice, "Should we take action? But he is an orthodox apprentice.
Ah... the only orthodox place around here is Silent Hill. It would be difficult to deal with people from Silent Hill..."
"Oh, let's forget it...it's hard to explain to the instructor."
The visitor said in a "good luck to you" tone: "Okay, I won't argue with you. But I want to remind you, it's best not to tell anyone about Kulakuka."
After finishing speaking, the visitor slowly turned around and walked into the darkness.
He appeared inexplicably and left inexplicably. Angel frowned and did not pursue him.
"What's Kulakuka?"
Stepping on the soft snow, Angel returned home with doubts.
After returning home, she unexpectedly saw Duodoro and Dushan looking out in the yard. When she saw Angel appearing, Dushan breathed a sigh of relief: "As soon as the adults left at night, Duodoro stopped sleeping and kept watching.
it's here."
Angel looked at Dodolo and saw a hint of intimacy and desire in his eyes.
Angel smiled helplessly. He originally thought that under Du Shan's guidance, Duodoro's "Yin Sui" would disappear, but he didn't expect it to have the opposite effect.
"I'm fine, you go to bed."
After sending the two of them back to the room, Angel was still thinking about the man who suddenly appeared earlier... There is no doubt that he is a wizard apprentice, and he is not weak in strength.
From his tone, it seemed that he came to trouble him because of "Kulakuka", but then he suddenly gave up, and I don't know why?
Most importantly, what exactly is "Kulakuka"?
This doubt that confused Angel all night had an answer the next day.
…
In the early morning, Du Shan took Duodoro to teach in the courtyard. She had originally planned to go to the suburbs today to collect stories, but her employer asked her not to go out for the next few days. Although she didn't know why, she didn't refute.
While teaching, Du Shan saw a small boat approaching on the river from a distance.
A fat man with a vicious look and scars on his eyes walked towards the villa menacingly.
Du Shan stopped teaching, with a trace of worry in her eyes.
She didn't know this man, but his temperament was very vicious. Could it be that he was looking for trouble with his employer? Du Shan looked at the man worriedly.
One second, Du Shan was still worried about her employer. The next second, she realized that things were getting strange.
The scarred man suddenly screamed, then yelled "There's a ghost" and backed away. But after taking a few steps, he changed direction and continued to retreat. In the end, he was actually walking around.
Circle, but can't retreat no matter what.
Is this person sick? Du Shan secretly thought.
Perhaps the man found that he could not retreat no matter how hard he tried. He turned pale with fright, screamed, and fainted to the ground.
