"Dear Zheng!"
Christian's hearty laughter and friendly greetings came from the other end of the phone.
Zheng Ren frowned. If there was nothing else, he did not want to deal with the Bruch family in the Alps.
Until now, he did not want to recall his previous experience — the invisible light curtain and the bats that fell like rain.
That time, it was the closest Zheng Ren could sense that he was to death. It was not an exaggeration to say that he had brushed past it. Often recalling the rain of blood would give him nightmares.
"Hello, Chris," Zheng Ren replied faintly. As he spoke, he turned to look at Little Yiren.
At this time, the Imperial Capital was gradually getting hotter. Standing on the balcony was said to be cooling off, but it was still not as cool as the house. There was sweat on the tip of Little Yiren's nose. She tilted her head and looked at Zheng Ren, her eyes flickering.
Zheng Ren reached out and scraped the girl's nose, taking away the drop of sweat.
Then, he pointed to the house. The girl gently hugged Zheng Ren and turned to enter the house.
"I have a friend. Legend has it that her entire family is cursed," Christian said. "I don't think so. I believe you don't think so either."
"And then?"
"You're a doctor. Of course, I'm here to make an appointment."
"…" Zheng Ren was speechless.
He did not even have a consultation room in the 912. Why did he come to register from far away in Europe? He did not know if Christian would line up all night with a quilt if he came to register.
The originally impossible picture was outlined in Zheng Ren's mind. His tense nerves immediately relaxed.
"Chris, you know I'm very busy here."
"You don't have to come."
"Oh, will people with curses spread curses?"
"I don't know about that, but she won't go to your side," Christian said with a smile. Christian said with a smile, "I'm sure you can tell if it's a disease or some damn curse at a glance."
"I can't guarantee that," Zheng Ren said with a smile, completely relaxed this time.
"You don't need to guarantee it. She's my friend. You just need to take a look," Chris said.
"Wait a minute. I'll go back to the house." Zheng Ren walked back with his phone. He thought for a moment, waved at Su Yun, who was drinking, and went upstairs.
"What's the matter? Why are you sneaking around?" Su Yun asked.
"Chris said that one of his friends is cursed."
"Damn! Boss, you can't believe it, right? "Su Yun said disdainfully. Although he said that, he picked up the glass in front of him, drank the wine inside in one gulp, and followed Zheng Ren upstairs.
"Who is it?" Su Yun asked.
"I don't know."
Su Yun shrugged his shoulders, expressing his regret at Zheng Ren's lack of knowledge.
When he arrived at Zheng Ren's room, he called Kerry again. Su Yun came over with a tablet and connected the video call.
Christian appeared gracefully in the picture. He raised his glass and greeted Zheng Ren.
"Kelly, why is it so gloomy again? Can you not look like you're haunted?" Su Yun asked familiarly.
"Su, you know we're afraid of the damned sunlight."
"What friend? Let me take a look at the medical records, "Zheng Ren said.
"Without the medical records, she wouldn't have gone to the hospital. Their minds are filled with things from hundreds of years ago, like a house that has never been cleaned, full of the smell of dust. "
On the screen, there was a flash of light.
"Where is he?" Su Yun asked.
"This is Maryse. I hope you two can become friends." As Christian spoke, the image changed. A shining crystal ball and a man in black behind the crystal ball appeared on the screen.
Although it was through the screen, the image that came from the other side still made Zheng Ren nervous.
"Maryse … Madam, hello," Zheng Ren greeted in standard English.
"Hello." The reply was low and cold.
Zheng Ren knew that he had probably encountered the most difficult kind of patient. In other words, it was called poor medical compliance.
Christian was really willing to cause trouble for him. Zheng Ren sighed in his heart.
"What's wrong with you?" Zheng Ren asked.
The crystal ball on the other side of the video lit up slightly.
"Don't tell me they're using the optical frequency to talk?" Su Yun said mockingly, "When the sunlight comes in, it means that they'll roar and scare Kelly."
Zheng Ren shook his head slightly. He hoped that the other party would not say a word. That way, he could say that he could not do anything.
Christian really knew how to cause trouble for himself. It would be best if he could push this matter away.
Zheng Ren did not believe in curses, but he did not want to come into contact with it. He had to go upstairs to connect the video so that Xie Yiren and Chang Yue would not see it.
Zheng Ren did not have any psychological baggage. If he did not understand, then he did not understand. It was nothing. He was even prepared to say a few words. It did not matter if they parted on bad terms in the end.
Even if Christian was' persuading 'the Nobel Prize judges for him, he would not put himself in danger and come into contact with the curse.
Zheng Ren's thoughts ran wild. On the other side of the video, a pair of withered hands reached out and placed on the crystal ball.
The light could faintly be seen through the hands. They were as shriveled as oranges that had been left for an unknown period of time. Under the light, the outline of the hands, muscles, and bones could be clearly seen.
"F * ck … A mummy?" Su Yun was stunned for a moment and muttered softly.
"My family was cursed 800 years ago. They obtained power but paid a high price." A ghost-like voice 'floated' out of the tablet.
Zheng Ren's hand suddenly tightened. He was ready to fight. Then he realized that they were still separated by thousands of mountains and rivers.
It was right not to go there. Zheng Ren smiled bitterly. Even through the screen, it gave him the illusion that she was going to transform into Sadako and come out of the screen. If it was face to face, he might not feel anything.
"When I was six years old, my life force was sacrificed and became a way for me to obtain power.
"I've never been young. When I was six years old, I was already old.
"…
Zheng Ren's eyes narrowed as he stared at the screen and the black screen behind the crystal ball.
"Do you need to see me?" the voice asked.
"Have you checked the information?" Zheng Ren asked in a deep voice. If possible, he did not want to see the person under the black clothes.
"No, a vagrant life doesn't need a doctor."
"Then … I'll take a look," Zheng Ren said helplessly. He had already cursed Christian countless times in his heart. He never went to the hospital. Through the screen, he let him see a string of videos!
The pair of mummified hands slowly raised and took off the black hood.
A head of long black hair flowed down like a waterfall. Behind the long black hair, like the hands, was a shriveled face.
Only a pair of eyes were alive. The rest of the body was exactly the same as a mummy's.
"F * ck …" Su Yun muttered.
Zheng Ren frowned. He quickly searched for a reliable diagnosis in his memory. This was the second time he was prepared to make a random diagnosis. The first time was to diagnose Old Luo with lead poisoning.
