Eugene opened his mouth, the age spots on his face slowly spread out, and there was no saltiness in his tone: "It turns out that His Majesty still remembers us, Speaker Witte. In this cold winter, it gives me a little more warmth in my heart."
"Your Majesty has not forgotten you."
"Even if you haven't forgotten us, His Majesty doesn't need us anymore."
Eugene opened his eyes. He faced the gentle man a few steps away without giving in at all.
"Get a good rest. It's too late today. I will come to see you again, General Eugene. This is the honor you deserve."
Speaker Witte turned and left. When he walked to the door, he only heard the person behind him say: "Thank you surgeon, he came in through your channel."
The middle-aged man paused for a few seconds and said softly: "This is what Your Majesty meant."
The door to the ward was gently closed, and Eugene looked at the ceiling and slowly closed his eyes.
…
It was late at night, and the lights in Zhou Jinru's office were still on, but he was already lying on the small bed in the back room to rest.
Most of the time, he, the surgeon, can basically just watch from the sidelines.
Most of the clients of Songxinshan Sanatorium are elderly Ursus nobles, and there are also a few senior military officers. The bodies of these people are cared for by specialized medical staff, and their treatment is much higher than that of ordinary people. There would be no need for additional doctors.
Zhou Jinru felt that the old man with back problems he met in the afternoon had a special situation. His entourage had not yet arrived, so he came in handy.
Boom, boom, boom.
Someone knocked on the door of the office. The surgeon immediately got out of bed, grabbed the white coat lying beside the bed and put it on. As he walked out of the inner room, he said: "Please come in."
Emily, who was wearing a white nurse uniform, stood at the door. When she saw Zhou Jinru coming out of the room, she smiled sheepishly: "I'm sorry, I saw your office light was still on and thought you were working. I disturbed you to take a rest. ?"
"To be honest, a little bit."
"ah?"
Zhou Jinru changed his tone: "So you owe me a favor."
The head nurse was stunned for two seconds, then the corners of her mouth turned up slightly, she lifted her fair chin, and the smile in her eyes grew stronger: "Are all Victorian men as eloquent as you?"
"No," Zhou Jinru shook his head, "First of all, he must have an interesting soul."
"Okay, I won't disturb your rest, Mr. Interesting."
Emily drifted away.
The smile on Zhou Jinru's face gradually disappeared, and it was obvious that the other party was here to test him.
How could a stranger suddenly appear in such a highly confidential place and become familiar to him so easily?
"I hope the background provided by Kelsey is strong enough. If this kind of temptation is repeated at most, it will be a desperate attempt."
He couldn't fall asleep for the rest of the night. He kept looking at the books in the office until it was time for breakfast and he took a nap.
The restaurant at Songxinshan Sanatorium is busiest in the early morning, because the nobles living here would choose to eat at this time and chat about the latest news.
Zhou Jinru glanced at the schedule, walked to the pool and poured a handful of cold water on his face. He almost forgot what he looked like without a mask. The face in the mirror even looked a bit strange.
"about there."
He strolled to the restaurant. There were already many guests in the luxuriously decorated public restaurant, and servants in maid uniforms were serving tea to the distinguished gentlemen.
"Oh, here he comes."
A voice suddenly came. Zhou Jinru looked in the direction and saw the old man who had received physical therapy yesterday pointing at him.
"This is Dr. Kottman. His hands seem to have a magical power. My waist often makes me so painful that I can't stand up. But after his hands, I can walk normally today. Come here, Kottman. Doctor, there’s someone here who wants to meet you.”
In order to play the role of a good surgeon, Zhou Jinru had no room for refusal. He had no choice but to obey the other party's wishes and walked over, standing in front of five or six elderly nobles with different expressions, and letting them comment.
"Is it really that magical?"
"Do I look like a liar?"
The old man stood up and walked a few steps. His legs and feet were still nimble, and he looked completely different from yesterday when he could only lie on the bed.
"Okay, I believe it. Old guy, sit down quickly and don't make trouble again!"
At this time, Emily, who had changed her clothes, walked over from the side, still holding a noteboard in her hand, and said with a smile on her face: "Gentlemen, you look really good, especially General Eugene. You’re much better than you were yesterday.”
"It turns out to be little Emily, you came so early," the old man's tone became obviously calmer, not as eager as before, "This is all thanks to Dr. Cotman next to you, his medical skills are very good."
Emily didn't care. When she heard Eugene's description, she couldn't help but exclaimed: "Really? Dr. Coatman is so amazing. To be praised by you, he must have real skills. I'm starting to become interested in him." .”
"Then it's best not to be interested. People who are favored by your Imperial Security Committee rarely escape unscathed. Little Emily, if you dare to touch him, you will get a big surprise."
Ursus Empire Security Council?
Zhou Jinru was surprised. He had heard of this national organization a long time ago. Its status was equivalent to the Saxon Detective Agency in Colombia. Although it had no actual power, its influence could reach directly to the core of the country.
I didn't expect the head nurse to have such a background. It seems that there is an undercurrent surging in Songxinshan Sanatorium.
Fortunately, she had been on guard and deliberately created a persona. Not to mention whether Emily believed it or not, at least she would approach it from this angle.
What Zhou Jinru is least afraid of is the beauty trap.
"General Eugene, what are you talking about? Although I came out of the committee, I retired long ago and have no contact with my previous unit."
At this moment, Emily couldn't believe a word she said. After all, the more beautiful a woman was, the more likely she was to lie.
"Let's go. I still want to say a few words to Dr. Coatman. He will make my waist injury very comfortable. Can you do it?"
Emily walked away angrily, with a look of grievance on her face that was heartbreaking.
After she left, Eugene snorted and looked at Zhou Jinru: "Dr. Cotman, I want to have another physical therapy session. You can see when."
"After breakfast, I have time."
"Okay, I'll have someone come to the office to find you."
Zhou Jinru couldn't understand what Eugene meant. He deliberately revealed Emily's identity, firstly to sound the alarm for himself, and secondly, to tell the people behind Emily which side he was on.
