In a quiet little neighborhood in the northwest corner of Santa Pobla, Dorothea was lying leisurely on the rocking chair of her house with her eyes closed. These years of living at sea have made her accustomed to sleeping while rocking, but now she is not used to it living on land. The night's sleep was not as abundant as expected. Fortunately, it is relatively remote here, and there are not too many patients during the day. Even if there are most of them, they are former acquaintances and customers. These customers who were acquainted with her before she left have rushed back one after another after learning that she was coming back.
It was said that they were seeing a doctor, but almost all of them came to see her for the reason of seeing a doctor.
The amount was not huge, but the medical expenses made her dumbfounded.
Does she have this money?
"But this is good. It's just..."
The scalpel turned like a silver flower in her hand. "I suddenly have to save people again, I'm not used to it~"
Suddenly the door was pushed open, and a big man who looked a bit fierce pushed the door in. After seeing Dorothea sitting in the rocking chair by the window, tears burst into her eyes, "Doctor! You are finally back!"
Dorothea was slightly startled, seeing that this big man looked inexplicably familiar, but she did not dare to draw any conclusions.
Doctors come into contact with too many people, and it is common for patients to be confused.
The inexplicable sense of familiarity just made Dorothea feel that this person should have taken over. But not sure.
"Doctor, you saved me back then, but when I woke up and wanted to repay you, you had disappeared." The big man sobbed.
Three years ago, he was separated from his family, but at the most desperate moment in his life, he was saved by a passing doctor.
At that time, he was already a little confused due to excessive blood loss, but in the end, he only remembered a beautiful face imprinted in his mind, and "It's okay, I am a doctor, I will save you."
The rocking chair stopped rocking, Dorothea suddenly realized, and then smiled slightly, "It's you, don't worry, it's just happening. Let me think about it, I remember your name is Gower, oh, golf is Bar."
Seeing that the other party actually remembered his name, the tears in Golf's eyes became even more intense.
Who said that men don't shed tears easily, it's just because they can't hold it back or can't hold it back anymore.
"Doctor Dorothea, I'm so grateful that you remember me, but I came here this time because I heard someone was asking about your whereabouts, and I was afraid that someone would do something bad to you."
"It's not good for me?" Dorothea looked at Golf suspiciously. Seeing the real relationship in the other person's eyes, she chuckled and shook her head, "No need, I can handle this myself."
The worry and concern in Golf's eyes showed that the other party really came with sincerity. In addition, he probably saved him back then to repay that kindness. but……
"Golf, it was just my naivety to save you, but it is enough that you have this intention. You should not get involved in my affairs."
"But……"
Before the words were spoken, a voice sounded from behind, "Hey, isn't this golf? I didn't expect you to come again~"
The old lady Xiya walked into the house with a little stoop, "I just heard my daughter say that someone is inquiring about the doctor's whereabouts. Thinking of what happened three years ago, I'm afraid that the doctor may have encountered some trouble again." "Don't feel troublesome, as long as Please don’t turn away from what we can do.”
Dorothea felt a little moved. But he shook his head, "Mother-in-law, you don't need to pay attention to my affairs. If I really need your help, I will tell you."
"Doctor!" Golf shouted urgently.
"..." Dorothea was silent for a while and sighed, "Okay, since you insist on doing this, just watch the door for me outside. If there is really trouble, just let me know."
She has indeed caused some troublesome people outside in recent years. Although they probably won't find her place, there are no absolutes in everything, so it's good to be more cautious.
…
On the roadside, a Carol with her eyes squinted and her hands behind her back was thanking Yuyuko and Mina profusely.
"Thank you, little girl. It's really getting harder and harder to see kind-hearted young people like you nowadays."
Mina giggled, "Everywhere, it's all small things."
Seeing Mina's smile, Carol nodded silently with a smile on her lips, "It may be a small matter to the other party, but it's not a small matter to me, the old man."
A few minutes ago, his handicraft stall was accidentally knocked over by himself, and it would be a time-consuming and labor-intensive task to pick up the things scattered all over the floor. At that time, Yuyuko and Mina Seeing this situation, he came to help him without hesitation.
He hadn't seen this kind of pure kindness for a long time.
Looking at the two girls, Carol couldn't help but sigh, "I never expected to see Celia flowers blooming in Santa Pobla again in my lifetime."
With that said, Carol turned around and rummaged through her stall to find a wreath. "Oh oh oh~ It's still there~ Only you are worthy of this flower crown~ It's a pity, this is the only one left now."
"Grandpa, what is this?" Mina asked curiously when she saw Carol taking out something and putting it on her head.
"Hehehe, it's nothing, it's just a garland."
A garland?
Youyouzi looked at it, and then couldn't look away.
There are garlands here and there. Although it looks like a garland, it is just a processed garland. If Yuyouzi saw it correctly, this garland should be a sterling silver product, but it is carved very finely. It's beautifully painted, and as long as you don't touch it, it looks just like a real wreath.
"This old man, this..."
"Take it. It's a pity that I keep this thing. Maybe it will be happy that someone can take it again."
"But……"
"If you don't accept it, I will dig the stall again and pick it up again myself."
"...Okay." Under Carol's strong request, Yuyuko said no more. I just labeled this old man a 'weird old man' in my heart.
At this time, Nanami, who was asking for Dorothea's information on the other side, came over frustrated and said, "Let's go. No one here knows."
"Isn't there one here?" Youyouzi sighed. This was already the fourth street the three of them were looking for today. After eating, drinking and having fun yesterday, the three of them were undoubtedly severely criticized by the people on the boat. So the three of them were working seriously today.
"Then let's go to another street and look for it. If it doesn't work, we'll be in trouble."
Youyouzi can use Tingfeng to search for her, but this is very troublesome.
Tingfeng can only listen, so if no one mentions the keyword Dorothea, this ability is useless, and even if it is mentioned, you may encounter someone with the same name as the aunt who fried potato pancakes yesterday.
And after today's inquiring, Yuyouzi learned something very troublesome.
Dorothea is a very common name in Santa Pobla.
The most common name here is Cecilia, or Celia, Leah, Celia, and then Thea. Although Dorothea is not the most common, the name Dorothea means purity. Redemption, so there's a lot of Dorothea here. Not to mention that today they found three Dorotheas in the hospital alone.
It's so magical...
Youyouzi had foreseen that his group might stay here for a long time.
Somewhat helplessly, Yuyuko said goodbye to Carol and left with Nanami and Mina.
"Hey, Yuyuko, do you smell the smell of alcohol?" Suddenly Nanami asked Yuyuko.
"???" Youyouzi shrugged her nose. "It smells of alcohol. But this is the street..."
An ominous premonition arose in my heart.
Yuyouzi looked around, but there were no shops or stalls that might involve drinks.
At this moment, Youyouzi suddenly felt dizzy.
"No, this wine is poisonous!"
…
Behind the house not far away, the corner of Sykes's mouth was slightly raised. He swung the wine glass in his hand twice and then gently put the red wine in the glass into his mouth.
"Sure enough, he is a rookie who has never experienced baptism. Five hundred million beli is quite funny~"
"Okay, now the three here are taken care of, now the other hunting can begin."
The wine glass fell and shattered, and the figure disappeared.
