That afternoon, Ella wrote a letter to the nobleman, saying that he wanted to recommend a famous doctor as the King of Sweden. In the evening of the same day, Ella received a reply. The nobleman was eagerly looking forward to the famous doctor's visit, and had already prepared a dinner to honor the famous doctor.
Ella said intentionally or unintentionally: "I don't know where that noble is from and what kind of disease he has."
"Your Majesty, I heard rumors when I was buying clothes. The two nobles came to the island republic to seek medical treatment from Avicenna. They were not local nobles and had no real estate in the island republic. For this reason, they chartered a house He chose a large hotel that can accommodate more than fifty people as his resting place."
Amy said mysteriously.
"Your Majesty, do you know that although they have been in the island republic for almost a month, not many people have seen their appearance! They hardly go out, and their daily meals are prepared by nearby taverns. , the people guarding the door were mercenaries hired from the local area, who worked every half a day. The owner of the hotel and Avicenna had met these two nobles, but they seemed to have received hush money, even if others asked The inquiry also kept silent about the information about the two nobles. Everyone on the island is guessing that maybe they are not nobles, but wanted criminals who have committed serious crimes!"
"Wanted criminal?" Ella was startled, "Why did you guess a wanted criminal from a noble?"
"Because nobles like to show off, only criminals like to be sneaky, right? And I heard that the knives and forks taken with the food often bend after being taken out, which makes it even more suspicious! But don't worry, there are me and the guards Here, no one can touch His Majesty... Hey!"
Amy's head was hit by the girl with the corner of her book.
"That's just a rumor among the people. We're just here to treat illnesses, idiots."
The girl said Amy's words expressionlessly.
"Stupid, stupid? You are a fool who burns a good book and then buys a new one! It's still His Majesty's money!"
Amy was referring to the "Medical Classic" in the girl's hand. She burned one copy in the tavern, and immediately asked Ella to borrow money to buy another one, not knowing what she wanted to use it for.
"If the old doesn't go, the new won't come -"
"Do you mean this book??? I thought you meant to abandon Avicenna's medical theory!
! ? ? ? "
The two of them argued all the way to the hotel booked by the nobleman. As the rumors said, the people guarding the door were not the entourage brought by the nobleman from abroad, but local mercenaries. When those mercenaries saw a group of pirates running towards Urala in the distance, they already had a pretty good guess. Before Ella could speak, they rushed to ask: "Is he the King of Sweden?"
"Yes." Amy answered for Ella, "This is the King of Sweden, and this is the doctor. I came as agreed."
The mercenaries glanced at Ella and then at the girl. Before coming here, Amy forcibly tore off the sheet the girl was wrapped in and put on Amy's own clothes, which made the girl look a lot more normal.
I don't know if it's because Amy's clothes are too loose, but the girl's behavior all the way shows her dissatisfaction with Amy.
"The employer has been waiting for you for a long time." A mercenary said, "But you should wait a moment, and I will go in and inform you."
Unexpectedly, after a while, the mercenary who went in to report came out with some embarrassment: "Well...the employer didn't expect that the King of Sweden would also come with him, and the dinner he prepared was not enough..."
"It's okay, we're not here for dinner." Ella said, "Just take us to the doctor."
"Actually..." the mercenary glanced at Ella and said, "Except for doctors, my employer doesn't like meeting strangers very much. King of Sweden, can you please stay away outside?"
Amy couldn't help but said: "No, Your Majesty is kind enough to introduce doctors, but your employer avoids you. Isn't this too rude? She is also the King of Sweden after all, right?"
The mercenaries looked at each other: "But..."
Ella whispered from the side: "Amy, it's okay, let's go back first?"
"If word gets out that the Pirate King was rejected by a small nobleman from other places and still goes back obediently, then the entire island republic will look down on His Majesty!" Amy grabbed the girl's hand and turned around: "If it's yours If the employer has this attitude, we will go back with the doctor!"
"Let them in."
A deep male voice came. After a while, a man came out of the house. It's just that his face was covered with a piece of black cloth, and there were still a few red spots faintly exposed in the areas that were not covered by the black cloth. He came to the door and bowed to Ella: "Because I have something on my face, I want to avoid seeing guests as much as possible. But what you just said is right. The King of Sweden is here in person, so he should come out to greet him anyway."
As he spoke, the man turned his body to one side and made a "please" gesture towards the room, "If you are not well received, please come in and rest first."
"Are you going to cure these pimples on your face?" the girl asked
The man shook his head: "No, my face is just a minor illness. But my friend is in critical condition and has been lying on the bed for several days. I hope the doctor can cure her."
With that said, the man led Ella and others up to the second floor, pushed the door open and entered a bedroom. The bedroom was separated by a translucent curtain, and a woman could be faintly seen lying on the bed behind the curtain.
"She's not wearing much clothes right now, so it's not appropriate for people to watch her." The man lowered his voice as if he didn't want to disturb the patient on the bed, "Let's stay outside and let the doctor go in."
The girl opened the curtain and walked in without thinking. But having learned from the past, Amy didn't force anything and obediently stayed outside the curtain with Ella.
"She suffered some injuries not long ago. It seemed like just an ordinary trauma at the time. Although there were more injuries, she was still young and we all thought she would recover quickly." The man described the cause and reason of the incident in a sad voice. go through. "But who would have thought that these wounds not only did not heal, but worsened day by day. She also started to have a high fever. I really had no choice. I heard that Avicenna was in the island republic, so I took her to seek medical treatment. But even Avicenna couldn't cure her..."
The girl's voice came from the curtain: "It's a wound infection. And it has begun to spread to the surrounding areas. The situation is very serious."
The man said in an almost pleading voice: "Doctor, please save her..."
At this moment, there was a noise inside the curtain. The patient who was sleeping in bed was awakened by the actions of Ella and his team, and let out a painful groan.
As soon as she heard that voice, Amy's eyes suddenly sharpened, and she rushed towards the curtain without any explanation. The man's movements were equally fast, and he stepped in front of Amy. But it wasn't just Amy who was startled by the sound, even Ella jumped up from her chair. Taking advantage of the man's opportunity to block Amy, Ella rushed to the curtain and pulled the entire curtain down!
The shell-like hairstyle, the moon-like hair color... and the extremely familiar face that is somewhat similar to Ella.
"Anna..."
Ella's head made a "thud" sound as if it had been hit by a giant tree. Her legs suddenly became weak and she almost fell to the ground.
