The cold-faced earl doesn't want to trigger the plot

"Ah...it really is a doctor..."

Under the magical skills of the strange thief, the patient on the hospital bed has entered a stable state again.

"Doctor, am I...finally going to die?"

After becoming stable again, the patient on the hospital bed asked questions in a very hollow voice.

And the strange thief standing by the hospital bed, after asking the other two "companions" for help with his eyes to no avail, he could only bite the bullet and continue to play the role of "Brianna" doctor.

"It's nothing like that, you're sure...you'll be fine..."

Continuing to use Ewenna's voice, the strange thief persuaded.

"It's so strange...the doctor didn't scold me today...It seems that I really don't have time..."

"?"

Facing the patient's words, it wasn't the strange thief of "Doctor Brianna" at all, but just looked blank.

"Speaking of which, Doctor, it's the Dismemberer... right?"

"!"

The light words of the patient caused the temperature in the room to drop a lot in an instant.

And obviously being surprised by the strange thief, he only opened and closed his mouth, but no words of excuse came out of it.

"I should...not be the last person to know about this matter...read it, the person at the scene of the second case said...the deceased was Mary. I saw her here last month ..."

The strange thief became silent, because she, who was not herself, was speechless.

"No wonder, the doctor made such a strange agreement with us back then. As the price for treating us for free, after we die, the corpses will be at your disposal... We also talked in private, could the doctor be a necromancer? Teachers, or organ dealers or something. But think about it... our rotten body and organs, no one would want it..."

"Now, if you want, we can abolish this agreement!"

The strange thief suddenly broke the silence and spoke loudly.

And Chris seems to want to step forward to prevent the strange thief from making his own claims, in order to obtain more information from the patient.But Riber stopped the detective with a twisted personality in time.

"Repeal...? I have been under the care of the doctor for so long, how can I regret it now? Without you, doctor, I would have died on the side of the road about a year ago... Besides, I was nothing when I was alive A glamorous person, why would he care about what he will look like after death... Rather, if he can be dressed up by the doctor like Mary, and if it gets published in the newspaper... that is the only achievement in my life."

"Don't say such things..."

The strange thief said in a weak tone.

"Doctors are always blaming us, saying that we don't love ourselves, don't behave, don't cherish ourselves and so on... Every time I hear these words, I don't know how Mary and the others are...but I am actually very angry .I really want to ask you loudly, 'What do you know?'. If I can, don't I want to be a doctor? Born in this kind of place, many things can't be helped. Doctors have their own knowledge and skills As a weapon, but I have nothing and no access to those weapons. It's like... thrown empty-handed into the woods full of beasts."

The ward is filled with the sighs of female patients,

"I have no weapons, but I have to fight. Because... hunger is more painful than pain, more painful than anything else. Then, if I don't fight, I will get nothing. Under this situation, although the inner There is nothing, it is an empty space, but only the body is growing without authorization... Then, I discovered that maybe my body itself is my weapon..."

The voice of the female patient was full of self-deprecating tone,

"I have heard that there is a terrible disease that is spreading everywhere...but what can I do? Because my inside is empty and there is nothing...I still can only use In the same way, use the money to hone the only weapon, until this weapon is also tattered."

The dying man's words were like accusations, so that the three people present, including Riber, didn't know how to respond.

Perhaps, this southern city is not as dark as the female patient said.Until she was forced into such a situation, the life of this woman was not without improvement.

But in the end, the three of them, all from wealthy backgrounds, could never understand her despair.

"I'm such a hopeless person... So, doctor, just let me die. Don't waste more on me. You can take me to cut open, or display it... .Just, don't let me live anymore. I'm really in pain, my whole body is burning...I've been saying these words, and I'm looking forward to it...by exhausting myself in this way, let My heart stopped completely. What's the point of letting me live like this?"

"Living itself has enough meaning."

When Riber's voice sounded, both Chris and the strange thief turned their unexpected gazes to the taciturn earl.

"Since in your eyes, this world is so cruel and full of despair. Then every day you live in this world is a proof of your struggle. It is your medal and your achievement. You live, It’s an amazing thing.”

Riber's voice fell, and the field fell into silence.

Until, the voice of the female patient broke the silence again,

"This... doesn't seem to be the doctor's voice. If it's an angel's voice... it seems a little too deep."

"So...just try harder and try to have another amazing day."

With a little sigh, Riber said again.

Although she had never met the person in front of her, Riber wanted to do something for her.This is an instinct of his, a behavior after following his heart.

It's just that he, who is not a doctor, can't do anything for patients.All that can be done is to procrastinate for a while and try to stimulate the patient's will to survive until "Dr. Brianna" returns.

"Since the previous voice didn't sound like that, does the current voice sound like an angel?"

Chris, who leaned over to the side of the hospital bed, also spoke to the female patient.

Riber couldn't guess the purpose of Chris doing this for a while.

Do you think that if you let this patient persist until Ewenna returns, you can get more information?Still think that as long as it is the earl's behavior, there is a deep meaning, so imitate it?Or, it is a rare kindness.

"Like more..."

It's not that the female patient is flattering, but the neutral voice of Chris, who is as confusing as his appearance, is indeed a bit close to the rumored "angel" who has no gender.

"I don't know...what the hell is going on right now. But...thank you very much. If it's just one day, I'll try to have another 'great' day."

The female patient, who seemed to have been aroused with some positive emotions, showed a faint smile at the corner of her mouth that was not covered by the white cloth.

In the ward, time passed by every minute and every second.

But the reality is not always as good as expected.

In the silent room where even the sound of breathing can be heard, only the breath of the female patient on the hospital bed is gradually weakening and quickly disappearing.

Although Riber didn't know how long the time had passed, it certainly didn't reach 0 o'clock in the middle of the night.

After thinking for a while, Riber made simple gestures with his hands to the strange thief.The strange thief quickly understood the other party's intentions from Riber's gestures.Also with a little surprise on his face, he opened his mouth and performed his magic skill again.

"Dang-dang-dang--"

It was as if a bell tower had really been moved into the ward.

The solemn bell sounded from the mouth of the strange thief.

And in this peaceful bell, the female patient on the hospital bed quietly passed away.

...

...

After leaving Ywenna's basement and returning to the hall, the trio was filled with an incomparably dignified atmosphere.

After the female patient passed away, the three of them who slightly lifted the white cloth on her face realized that the other person was actually a rather young woman.

Deliberately coming to this southern city, but before catching the "Dismemberer", they witnessed the death of a young woman, which made them feel so depressed that they didn't want to wait for Ewenna anymore.

Riber was also very emotional in his heart.

People are mortal.

This is as it should be, and it is also nonsense.

But in fact, most people have never witnessed the moment when a person passes away.Including Riber, who has been a human being for two lives and even experienced death himself.

On the screen, in the works, watching others die is different from seeing it with your own eyes.

He felt that the moment the female patient stopped breathing, there was really an indescribable feeling in his heart.It was as if there was something important in his body, part of which was taken away together.

Riber now understands why in some works, there are strange fantasy species that can only be seen after witnessing the death of others.

Moreover, at the same time, I became more and more incomprehensible, since ordinary people can hardly bear to see the death of others.Then why do there still exist in the world, those who will take the initiative to kill others, sad existence.

"If it were another doctor, would she... be cured?"

The strange thief walking at the end of the queue asked aloud with a nervous tone and slightly trembling voice.

"Probably not. Stanger's disease is a terrible disease with a mortality rate of more than [-]%. Moreover, because it is mainly transmitted through the behavior of 'silencing', even when the behavior of 'silencing' is not performed, it is still weakly contagious." Therefore, most hospitals and clinics will refuse to accept patients with Stanger's poisoning. Miss Ewenna has done her best to extend the life of poisonous patients who are already on the verge of death for nearly a year."

Chris replied.

Perhaps it was also because of the solemn atmosphere, it was rare for Chris to further test the phantom thief when he mentioned Evanna.

"Yes, it is so..."

The monster seemed relieved.

"Speaking of which, we don't even know her name."

"..." "..."

Seeing that the already dignified atmosphere was exacerbated by himself, the strange thief bit the bullet and continued,

"Yes, yes, what method shall we use next to ensure that Ewenna will not run away when she sees us when she returns here?"

"this matter..."

Riber lowered his head slightly, thought for a moment,

"Leave it to me. I have a way, let her be in front of me, and there is absolutely no way to escape."

Thinking back to the various investigations on the "Dismemberer" and the brief contact with Ewenna.

A rather specific image has emerged in Riber's mind.

So, he is confident.

only...

If possible, he hoped that Ewenna would be more obedient and not let him use the last resort.

...

...

That night.

Anxiously running out of her house, Iwenna, who finally bought some scarce potions after running halfway across the southern city, returned home panting heavily with almost limp steps.

And the door of her house was opened, and the dim lights in the hall...

All signs indicated that this house already had a first occupant.

With Ewenna's prudence, she naturally didn't want to step into the hut where there was obviously a crisis waiting for her.However, she had to go in again.

Because, in the basement of the hut, there are still her patients.

Evanna stepped into the hut cautiously, and walked slowly through the corridor in front of the hall as if she could escape at any time.

And it was at this time, with the sound of "pop", all the magic lamps in the room emitted maximum brightness at the same time.

In the field of vision that was slightly affected by the sudden strong light, Ewenna saw it.

On the sofa in the foyer, a handsome young man with a cold face sat upright, and the "housekeeper" and "maid" standing upright beside him.

The nobleman with night-black hair stared straight at her with icy purple eyes.

"Meet you again, Dismemberer."

Volume 87: Chapter [-], Night of Sin ([-])

Looking at Riber sitting in her hut, Ewenna felt a great sense of oppression.

Meeting the eyes of the other party, Ewenna didn't even have the thought of resisting, she just wanted to turn around and run away quickly.

Not only because of the "vigour" shown by the other party, but also because of Yiwenna's "understanding" of this great nobleman.

That day, after escaping from the underground waterway, Ewenna learned from the newspaper that the person she had hijacked turned out to be the most mysterious noble family in the kingdom, the current Patriarch of Campret.

Moreover, he is obviously different from those great nobles who are just vain.

In particular, after knowing that even the "Phantom Thief" was caught by him on the spot, as a person with a deep relationship with the Phantom Thief, Ewenna was surrounded by panic from that day on.

The perpetrator, sounding imposing, spreads fear.

But in fact, the person who harbors the most fear is often the perpetrator himself.

At this moment, Ewenna felt it again.

At the scene of the first corpse throwing, she felt as if locked by a poisonous snake, which made her hair stand on end.

She had expected that she would be caught sooner or later.

It's just that I didn't expect that this great nobleman would come to the door in person, and he only brought two servants with him.

What is he relying on?
